After a while, Aquitaine came back in with a smile and there was a servant behind him pushing a cart full of food again.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Please eat."
As the servants began to serve the dishes, Aquitaine personally placed a plate of meat in front of Kuro and said, "Please try it. This is the specialty of our Kingdom of Korff, rock roasted frog meat."
There was only one frog on the plate that occupied most of the plate. The table was decorated with flowers and oil stains. It looked very appetizing.
However, as soon as the dishes were served, Leda quickly pulled the plate over and took a bite of the frog.
"Mmm! Delicious!"
Her eyes lit up and she said to Stork, "Sister Stork, please remember this smell later."
"You don't have it? Why are you snatching mine?" Kuro rolled his eyes.
Aquitaine smiled awkwardly. "I'll get another plate."
"Rest up."
Kuro pressed his finger down and the air seemed to sink down, pushing Aquitaine to the main seat.
"As a king, show some of the spirit of a king. You can't compare to your neurotic father in this aspect. You still have a lot to learn," Kuro said lightly.
Aquitaine opened his mouth and smiled bitterly but said nothing.
Kuro pulled the 'rock-roasted cow boy' that the servant handed over to Leda, who was eating crazily, and poured himself a glass of wine and another glass of wine for Aquitaine.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. When doing things, you have to be calm. No matter how panicked you are, you have to be calm on the surface. Look at me, everything is calm."
That's because you didn't encounter anything that alarmed you…
Crowe complained in his heart.
He had seen his superior's incompetent rage countless times.
It's not his business now.
"I got it…"
Aquitaine forced a smile. "I will calm down."
"Hey, that's right. Come, let's go."
Kuro raised his glass, clinked his glass, and drank by himself.
Although that was the case, the worry on Aquitaine's face never stopped.
Kuro ignored him and began to eat alone. From time to time, he put what he thought was delicious on Leda's plate and ate for nearly an hour before he put down his knife and fork.
"Almost there."
As he stopped, Marine stopped except for Leda.
As for the CP, they did not even eat much. They were not here to eat.
"Lida, stop eating."
Kuro looked at Leda, who was still eating and called out.
"Oh…"
Lida quickly stuffed a piece of meat on the plate into her mouth and swallowed it before replying.
"Moore, it's moving. As for the specific location, I will call you later. Ask Lida to sense my location."
With that, Kuro stood up and walked out of the window.
"Chloe, gather Marines and stand by."
"Understood, Mr. Kuro." Crowe pushed up his glasses.
Kuro pushed open the window and twisted his wrist. "Sa, let's start work. We can't eat for free."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body floated up and flew directly out of the window. With a bang, a ball of air wave spread out from his body and instantly turned into an afterimage, flying in a direction like a meteor.
Aquitaine stared at Kuro, who was gradually disappearing and said blankly, "He can fly…"
"Don't make a fuss, my Kuro can fly, he is very powerful!" Leda raised her little head and said proudly.
"Is that the floating fruit?"
Stussy said, "Killed the Great Pirate Golden Lion and got a trophy, Vice-Admiral Golden Lion's signature ability."
Lucci nodded. "It has already surpassed the predecessors. This ability has been developed to an unimaginable height in this person's hands."
In the high sky, Kuro's flight brought out a ball of air and rushed straight forward. In his perception, the stubborn old man was about to connect with those pirates.
… .
At this moment, in an empty stone ground, a group of pirates marched forward.
The leader was an existence like a mountain of flesh. He had a cigarette in his mouth and looked straight ahead.
But soon, he stopped, because in the open space in front of him, there was a thin figure standing upright, like the stubborn vegetation that grows in the cracks of stones, upright but lonely.
That man …
Sheridan stood there, the pipe was smoked a few times and he exhaled the smoke. After looking at it for a long time, his eyes glanced at the empty place on the man's left arm and said:
"It's been two years, Noadi, no…"
He closed his eyes and said slowly, "I should say that we haven't seen each other for more than twenty years. I don't know you now."
"Noadi!!"
The pirate beside him roared: "The culprit who enslaved us!"
"Kill him!"
"That's right, kill him, he is only one person, do you still want to enslave us!"
Faced with the excitement of the pirates, Sheridan waved his hand and there was a sudden silence.
"Sheridan…"
Noadi pursed his lips, but soon his face became angry and he roared, "Are you going to invade my country! Sheridan!"
"Your country? Isn't this also my country?!"
Sheridan gritted his teeth and said, "It's not a slave country, it's a pirate country! It's a proud pirate country!"
"So you let these people slaughter the people?! Causing destruction?! And you used something like bomb rock!" Noadi shouted even more angrily.
"It doesn't matter!"
Sheridan said: "Those who don't have the honor of a pirate, if you die, so be it. You also have to die, Noadi! I will ascend that throne and restore the glory of the Pirate Nation!"
These words made Noadi extend his remaining right hand and open it to them.
This scene made the pirates take a step back in unison, their faces dripping with cold sweat and they all looked panicked.
This was the reason why they did not dare to attack Stone King City!
Noadi is defeated, but he is not dead yet!
How many people have completely become slaves with no self-control because of the opening of that hand?
"Are you going to enslave me again?! Noadi!"
Sheridan's body shook, and the flesh on his body became turbulent and splashed around like mud. The meat-like mass fell to the ground and bounced like jelly.
"Two years ago, I was at a disadvantage because I trusted you. I would never have thought that the current you would become such a hateful person! It won't happen anymore. Don't even think about enslaving me. I can avoid your ability!"
Others might not know, but Sheridan knew very well that more than twenty years ago, just before he was captured, Noadi obtained a fruit called the "Slave Fruit". It can be turned into a collar by contact with a material medium, stone or iron. As long as the person is wearing the collar, their body will not be controlled by them and they will act according to Noadi's orders.
Back then, because this was an omen that the Kingdom of Korff was about to reach its peak, even if he entered Impel Down, he still did not give up hope and always thought that he could go out one day.
His dream came true. He really came out, but what he encountered again was a completely different Noadi.
Unforgivable!
Absolutely unforgivable!
