People in the world do things without a purpose. Even the Dreamers have a purpose.
Or rather, those so-called Dreamers are much more purposeful than ordinary pirates.
Ordinary pirates want more territory, more underlings, more money, and more fame.
If those dreamers really want to achieve their goal, they will overturn the world.
Becoming the number one swordsman in the world is the dream of many swordsmen, and some swordsmen think that they are not qualified enough and bury their dreams deep, and some swordsmen's initial goal is this and they put in effort for it.
However, Kuro did not want this lousy title. He really did not have the motivation to fight Mihawk. If he lost, he would lose face. Although he won, he would have a lot of face, but there would be a lot of trouble. If he really fought with Mihawk, he would definitely be finished. But he estimated that he would either go with Red Hair or with Golden Lion, either his hands or feet would be broken.
He was not stupid to fight for a title that he did not want at all. He had never said that he wanted to be the number one swordsman in the world.
Moreover, even if he doesn't die, even if he is seriously injured and disabled, it will greatly reduce Shichibukai's current strength.
He made a new Shichibukai because he expected them to fight pirates and Yonkō (Four Emperors), not to fight with him here.
Actually, what Kuro doesn't understand the most is that there are so many opportunities to be famous on the sea, why does he keep harping on the fact that he is the number one swordsman in the world?
He had already made up his mind. If he really couldn't stand Mihawk's pestering, he would trick him into doing Yonkō (Four Emperors) and it would be best to fight with Akagami (Red Hair). Anyway, this was what he had promised himself.
Although Red Hair has lost one hand, the swordsmanship of the other hand will not be bad. With Mihawk and Red Hair's relationship, he will probably be the same as me. When fighting, they will not fight to the death. It is just a spar. In this way, the spar will be endless and there will be no big victory. Let Mihawk go to Red Hair for a while.
After bypassing Maynard, Kuro walked directly into the office. Sure enough, he saw Sakasugi wearing a Marine hat and his head was slightly lowered. There was a shadow covering it, making it difficult to see his expression.
Hearing footsteps, Sakasugi raised his head slightly and saw Kuro coming in. A smile appeared on his lips.
"You're back?"
"Yes, President Sa."
Kuro did not stand on ceremony. He found a sofa next to him and sat down. He put out the cigar in the ashtray and lit another one. Then he said, "Asteria failed. Their king was assassinated and it was not easy to intervene in the rest of the matter. Mihawk came to find me for a one-on-one fight and that red-haired bastard actually dared to watch."
"I have read the specific report."
Sakasugi said with relief, "Congratulations, Kuro, the title of the world's number one swordsman is yours, but it can't be released yet. Headquarters has their own considerations. What's your opinion?"
Kuro was stunned and then overjoyed. "Really?"
It was originally just a guess, but I didn't expect it to be true. Headquarters actually didn't send out this report?
That's not right. According to their nature, Marine has produced the world's number one swordsman. It must be a worldwide promotion. Even the World Government will not let go of this moment to enhance their prestige.
"I have no objections, President Sa, you can do whatever you want, don't worry about me."
As soon as he asked the question, Kuro immediately reacted and nodded.
Such a good thing, of course he agreed.
"Yes, about this, we want to borrow your power and influence and promote it together. You have enough qualifications, it's up to us next."
Sakasugi nodded and said, "As for Astya, I have already explained it to the higher-ups. Although it is a pity, the CP over there has reported that the Duchy of Faya has not yet elected a king. Other people are not interested in joining the country, and they do not resist the invasion of other countries. The only resistance is that Farytel Joshua, but there are too few people and they are useless."
Of course, they won't resist. The nobles have negotiated with the other party to guarantee that they will expand their territory. As for whether the king dies or the civilians die, it has nothing to do with them.
This is a common problem in this world. Aristocrats are the backbone of the world. A king alone can't cause any trouble.
The Revolutionary Army has always thought that it would be much better if there was a new king, but they did not think that the king is just the biggest noble. It is not like there are no nobles below him.
This is the same as the 'gentleman' in Kuro's hometown in the past. What does changing dynasties have to do with them? No matter which dynasty they change to, the concept of 'country under the sky' was not deeply rooted in people's hearts at that time. It was pushed out by several big shots in the late modern era in order to save the country, and it gradually became deeply rooted in people's hearts in the late period.
At the current level of the sea, it doesn't matter who it is, as long as they have a good life.
As long as noblemen do not violate their interests.
Otherwise, the pirates would not be planting flags, but directly killing the king to rule.
Even if Kaido enters the Country of Peace, isn't he usually stationed on the Ghost Island that he destroyed? He rarely steps into the Country of Peace. That place is still occupied by Charcoal Snake.
As for Astya, as long as the interests of their nobles are guaranteed, it doesn't matter who rules, but if you want to say who violated the interests of their collective nobles…
In his hometown, at the end of the dynasty, if anyone dared to do this, the gentry could tear off their skin.
These people are equally hateful in Kuro's eyes now, but according to the local conditions, the times have changed and history has a process. Whether it is in his hometown or here, they are all the same before the Red Sun came out.
The difference was that his hometown was lucky enough to have a sun, which led to the brightness of the stars.
As for this side… He had to pray for himself. After all, he, Kuro, had not paid much attention to this kind of thing since he saw the world clearly when he was young.
The difficulty is too great. The geographical location created by the geographical environment is a problem, the natural suppression of bloodline is a problem, and it is not that the people can't survive, but it is also a problem to be limited to one island and one country and the information is not smooth. There are too many strong people.
In any case, he, Kuro, could not handle it. He was not a genius, nor was he a fierce man from the heavens. He did not have the strength.
This was also why Kuro had always thought that he was not strong enough.
In terms of strength, he could not crush Yonkō (Four Emperors) in a fight.
In terms of determination, he was an ordinary person and did not want to fight a long battle.
What can't he do? It's not enough for him to enjoy life. Forget it, I'm tired. Just let it be. It's already good enough to ensure that our own people and the civilians under our jurisdiction are not bullied.
