Chapter 363
How Can There Be a 60-Year-Old Crown Prince?
A few days later, the Marines of Pegasus Island also became familiar with Donald and the stork. After they were no longer so surprised, they found some interesting things.
Miss Stork is still as gentle as ever, but Donald… doesn’t seem to be very lucky.
Eating is choked by fish bones or bones that come out of nowhere, walking is hit by flower pots or fruit cores that come out of nowhere, and sleeping. Sometimes, the people also have a strange fire, making other colleagues stay away from Donald.
This person is a little unlucky…
Kuro was a little happy about this.
It was good to be unlucky.
If he was unlucky and went out to carry out a mission, he would definitely not complete it well.
“Why isn’t that idiot Cass back yet?”
In the office, Kuro waited for a few days but there was no news of Kaz’s return.
“Maybe the pirates haven’t been cleaned up. That guy is like that. He won’t stop until everything is done.” Crowe said.
“That’s enough, he should be back. Crowe, you lead the team out and bring Kiwi and Donald with you. Find a chance to promote them so that they can lead the team in the future.”
“Yes, I understand.” Crowe pushed up his glasses and said.
“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”
At this moment, the Den Den Mushi on the table suddenly rang.
Kuro picked up the microphone and Den Den Mushi turned into a bearded man.
“Colonel Kuro!” Den Den Mushi said steadily, the joy in his voice made Kuro’s heart skip a beat.
What, did you catch something strange again?
“Kaz, what’s the matter?” Kuro asked.
“There is something I need to report to you. The old king of Twin Horse Kingdom is dead,” Den Den Mushi said in a deep voice.
“You did it?” That was Kuro’s first reaction.
“Of course not. The old king died naturally and the new king has succeeded the throne. He wants to invite you to attend the succession ceremony of the new king of the Twin Horse Kingdom. He asked me to bring you a message,” Den Den Mushi said.
Seeing that Cass didn’t seem to cause any trouble, Kuro was relieved.
“The new king?”
He pondered for a moment and said, “Okay, I will bring people over to watch the ceremony. You can reply to him.”
“Yes, Colonel Kuro!”
After hanging up the phone, Kuro touched his chin and murmured, “New king? Why are you calling me?”
“Mr. Kuro, you are the only Marine Captain stationed nearby, and this island used to belong to the Twin Horse Kingdom, of course they will invite you.”
Crowe thought for a moment and said, “I have also heard some things about the Twin Horse Kingdom. It is said that the old king has lived for too long. When he was young, the Twin Horse Kingdom was still in its heyday, but after he became old, his brain became dim, which led to the war and the loss of Pegasus Island.”
“The old king succeeded the throne at the age of eight and had a child in his twenties. It’s just that he has been the king for 80 years and His Highness has waited for 60 years. It’s no wonder that he asked us to attend the ceremony.”
Kuro listened with a strange expression.
Good lord, how can there be a 60-year-old crown prince in the world?
“Don’t tell me they changed the name of the Royal Army?” Kuro asked curiously.
“Uh, I don’t know about that,” Crowe said inexplicably.
He could not understand the meaning of the name change. Wasn’t it the same?
“Okay, then get ready, inform everyone and we will go to the ceremony.” Kuro nodded.
“Don’t you want to leave people to guard it?” asked Crowe.
“There’s no need for that for the time being. Since that idiot Kaz went out, I haven’t even seen anyone who looks a little fierce, let alone pirates. It should be safe for the time being. Just leave a basic team to guard it and go to the others as a vacation.” Kuro thought for a while and said.
“Twin Horse Kingdom? I haven’t been there so close, there should be a lot of delicious food.” Leda, who was eating snacks, moved her ears and said with an expectant expression.
What she was eating now was a small piece of dried meat made by the armadillo. It was very flavorful.
“Eat eat eat, you only know how to eat. Can’t you think sometimes?!” Kuro glared at her.
“Barbecue? What barbecue?” Leda asked subconsciously.
Kuro was speechless.
Is he infected by staying with the stork for too long?
“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”
The Den Den Mushi rang again.
Kuro’s lips twitched and he took it impatiently. “Kaz, what else?!”
“Oh, Kuro, your tone is bad. Did something bother you?”
Den Den Mushi turned into a wretched uncle with thick peach blossom eyes and open mouth.
“Old man?” Kuro was stunned.
“Well, I have nothing to do recently, so I will go to your place to patrol and bring Basil to you.” Kizaru said.
“Sazir? Oh, yes, he is coming back. You want to come over? Okay, then you come.”
Kuro and Kizaru chatted for a while, hung up the phone, and said to Crowe, “The old man is coming in three days, get ready.”
“Kizaru? I understand.” Crowe nodded solemnly.
That is Admiral Kizaru, a general who has come to the island, which requires a high standard to deal with.
Three days later, a huge warship approached the port.
At the port, all the Marines were dispatched. With Kuro as the leader, they stood upright and welcomed Admiral Kizaru.
Soon, the Battleship docked. Kizaru, who was wearing a yellow suit with a sweater inside and a cloak and glasses, walked over with his hands in his pockets.
“Oh, Kuro, long time no see.” Kizaru saw Kuro in the lead and said in surprise, “You seem to have grown a lot.”
“I ate and slept well. It’s normal for me to grow taller.”
Kuro smiled. “Long time no see, old man.”
“Brother Kuro!”
Behind him, Zhan Taowan, who was wearing a dudou and a cloak, carried a big axe and shouted from behind, “I’m here too!”
“Cloak? You officially joined the Marine?” Kuro was surprised.
The Scientific Force is not an official Marine. Sentomaru has never had a cape before.
“Yes, I have officially joined the Marine. From now on, I am the man with the strongest defense in the Marine!”
“Oh… you can do it.” Kuro said expressionlessly.
“Brigadier General Kuro, I’m back.”
At this time, Basil also leaned over and saluted him with unusual seriousness.
“What the hell, I’m a Brigadier General… Wait, Old Master, are you here to give me a medal? This is not in line with the rules, I have to go to the headquarters myself.”
Sensing the elements, Kuro looked at Kizaru suspiciously.
“No, I just came to see you,” Kizaru said with a smile.
“That’s good.” Kuro said very seriously: “We have to do things according to the rules. I have to go back to the headquarters to be awarded. It’s not right to be awarded privately.”
“Oh, you’re right.”
Kizaru scratched his head and glanced around. “It’s developing well. This old man remembered that this place was very bad before. It’s really surprising, Kuro.”
“It’s okay. The main thing is that there are no pirates, and we were lucky enough to dig a hot spring. When it’s done, I will develop this place. Grandpa, can I show you around?” Kuro smiled.
“Sure.” Kizaru nodded with a smile.
“Colonel Kuro, I heard from Admiral Kizaru that you have a mission for me?”
Basil couldn’t help but ask expectantly.
“Mission?”
Kuro was stunned. He thought about it and said, “Yes, a little. You join the team first. I’ll tell you later.”
“Yes!” Basil was happy.
Sure enough, he is indispensable. Kuro needs him, this Marine Corps needs him!
Not only to be beaten!
