"We are here for…"
In the face of Kuro's question, Kaz was about to speak, but he was suddenly interrupted by Wilbur. "We have a mission in the first half and received orders, so we came directly, Mr. Kuro!"
"Oh?" Kuro raised his eyebrows, glanced at the two people, nodded and stopped talking.
Isn't it normal for these two people to have a mission? It's not like they are idle like him.
Kaz nodded vigorously in the face of Kuro's probing eyes. "Yes, that's it!"
"Kaz, you came at the right time. Do you see the people over there? There are about 100,000 people. Now they are caught in a change of mind. Let's see if you can solve it."
Kuro pointed to the people he had bound all the way ahead and said to Kaz.
It was precisely because he knew that Cass was here that he was willing to wait here.
Back then, this guy could make even Vinsmoke's clone have feelings. Maybe he could offset Brent's ability.
"What's the point of solving these problems? Aren't they here to launch the Demon Slayer Token?" Doberman asked: "Why haven't these people been evacuated? Do they want to live and die with this island?"
"Do you think they are stupid? They are just affected by their abilities. The main culprit is there."
Kuro pointed at Brent and said, "We can't kill hundreds of thousands of people just because of him. If we can solve it, we will. The order from above is to destroy the island. It doesn't say that we must kill people."
Doberman nodded. He agreed with that.
Although they are hawks, it does not mean that they will not be flexible. It is just that their style of doing things is a little more intense.
Moreover, this is the life of hundreds of thousands of people, it is not a joke.
"Yes, I understand. Before coming, I also investigated the information. The current number of people on the island is 135,000."
Kaz was blunt. "If it's because of tenryubito, it's not good to kill so many people. We're Marines, not tenryubito."
These words made Mole and Doberman look at him meaningfully.
Although this is by consensus …
But to say it so blatantly…
As expected of Admiral Kuro's subordinate.
Kuro felt that it was nothing. He often said this, and Kaz is an upright hot-blooded idiot. It is normal for him to say such things.
"Let me try!"
Kaz straightened his suit and walked toward Brent, who was half-buried in the purple-black ground.
Brent looked at Kaz and sneered, "Marines, ten Battleships, are you ready to issue a Demon Slayer order? Then just send it out, what are you waiting for!"
Kaz stood in front of him, his tall figure like a thick shield. The wind blew and the cloak on his back fluttered. He said in a deep voice, "Of course you have to die."
'Yes?'
These words stunned Brent.
Shouldn't he be here to persuade me to stop?
Aren't you afraid of angering him?!
"What do you mean?" Brent asked.
"It's very simple. You are a pirate and the culprit, so you must die. I won't lie to you about this."
Kaz said directly, "But you can have dignity. Before coming here, I also checked the history and intelligence of this country and roughly understood some things. Maybe I'm not prepared, but it doesn't matter. You make the request. As long as you let these people go, I can grant you a wish."
"Satisfy my wish? Satisfy my wish?!"
Brent was excited. "You are just a small Marine, how can you say that you can fulfill my wish?! Can I let you destroy the Dominican Republic?! Can I let you pull down all the tenryubito of Mariejois?! Can I let you make Marines disappear?!!"
"You still want to satisfy my wish? You still say that I must die? I can't die! Because these hundreds of thousands of people are my life! As long as one survives, I can't die!!"
Kaz looked quietly at the agitated Brent, at his savage madness, at the anger in his eyes, and he seemed to understand something. He closed his eyes and whispered, "Is he so angry?"
"You don't need to pity me!!"
Instead, Brent got even more excited. "I am a pirate! A 300 million pirate! A poor man who came out of the sixth floor. Your purpose is to destroy me, not to pity me here! Why, why are you pitying me? Why!!"
Why wasn't it Borusalino who took pity on me back then?!
If it was him, he could save the country!
Instead of sitting back and watching the country fall, he was branded as a pirate and was even mistaken by the people of Comerick as a pirate who was behind it.
Pirates!
Pirates have always been synonymous with bad in their eyes. If life is stable, who wants to be a pirate?
Pirate King?
But screw him!
But no one gave him a chance!
Not a single person!
Comerick's people, tenryubito, and even Marines who want to protect the people!
Who else can he count on?!
He might as well not count on anyone!
I want revenge. I want them to know how I felt back then. I want them to make a choice!
Make a situation where you can either rob a Heavenly Dragon and live a life worse than death, or watch your country fall and live a life worse than death!
Brent put his palms together and shouted, "Ghost of Resentment and Liberation, open!!"
Following his roar, those people with red eyes roared one after another. Their bodies expanded and they broke free from the shackles of the mud.
At this moment, their bodies are all muscular and their mouths are pulled back, revealing their sharp canine teeth. Their eyes are almost red and they are roaring. They are no longer fighting each other but turning to face Marines.
"See, this is my power!"
Brent straightened his neck and roared, "This is my final ability. They are liberated and there is no sanity left in them. They are no longer human. Let's see if you can still do it!"
At this moment, his body began to fade and gradually became transparent.
"I want you to feel guilty. I want you to…"
Brent dove down and the body under his head disappeared, leaving only his head on the ground. "Thinking of this moment, no one can be at peace!!"
"Ice Ghost?"
Seeing this scene, Kuro's face became gloomy, "Is it the same as God Luo, but this is guided by the power…"
This state easily reminded Kuro of when he dealt with Hero Luo. The poison that those people were poisoned with should be another application of Quinn's virus, but the difference is that Brent's virus is purely based on ability.
"Kaz?" Kuro looked at Kaz.
Kaz pursed his lips and turned toward Kuro, blaming himself. "I'm sorry, Mr. Kuro. I can't help it. I'm not excited, I just feel sad…"
"Is that so…"
Kuro narrowed his eyes and glanced at Kaz before looking at the Vice-Admiral in the rear preparing. "Then retreat to the ship first."
