Chapter 721
He Will Kill Those Old Men!
Kuro glanced at them, nodded, and motioned to Crowe.
Crowe nodded and handed the two fruits to Basil and Fanny.
“Thank you, Mr. Kuro!”
Basil was especially excited. Finally, there was finally a fruit that suited him!
The effect of that beating fruit can repel all existence, including attacks!
If he can even deflect an attack, it means that he will not be so painful when he is beaten in the future!
What? This fruit is suitable for my fist technique?
That kind of thing is not important!
The important thing is not to be beaten!
“Alright, eat this thing and familiarize yourself with your abilities. Also… Pheasant, inform the chef that I want to treat all G-3 Marines to a meal. You are ready to make a sumptuous meal.” Kuro waved his hand.
“You want to find a place to squat in the latrine pit?”
Stork wondered, “In the fortress, isn’t there a seat?”
Kuro was speechless.
Why is he talking to this thing?
Leda repeated the words, and Stork nodded.
Everyone left, leaving only three people in the office.
Kuro sat in a chair and slowly lit another cigar. He stared at the scenery outside the tall building. The smoke was lingering. For a moment, he was stunned and no one knew what he was thinking.
“I really can’t be famous anymore, Crowe…”
After a while, he said.
“Huh?”
Crowe turned to Kuro and pursed his lips.
Mr. Kuro wants my idea again?
But at this point, apart from suspending activities and downplaying their existence, there are no other good ideas.
“Go to the electrical headquarters and ask him to give me all the information of those old guys who ran out,” Kuro said.
Crowe was stunned when he heard this, and then said, “But, Mr. Kuro, they may not give us the information on it. The World Government keeps it a secret from the outside world, and Headquarters will not easily reveal it.”
For example, the news of Smith’s escape this time is not among the internal Marine executives. It belongs to the ‘disappearing people’.
“Who am I? Don’t worry, I will give it to you.”
Kuro shook his head. “It’s not easy for me to do something. No one will make things difficult for me. If I can’t get it, I’ll ask Sakasugi for it. If I can’t get Sakasugi, I’ll go to Mariejois for it. There’s no reliable information and I have to guess on my own. How long do I have to guess?”
Just like this time, he only knew that some people had broken into his sea area when he arrived. It was too slow and careless.
“Yes, I understand, Mr. Kuro, I will call you later.” Crowe nodded.
“Go down first and attend the banquet.”
Kuro stood up and walked down.
The venue of the banquet is naturally the canteen.
Apart from the Marine cafeteria, there are not many tables available for these thousands of Marines to eat.
At this time, many Marines have gathered in the cafeteria and are sitting at tables. The cafeteria is silent, except for the sound of cooking from the kitchen.
The G-3 Navy can have a voice, but the Dougreg Navy itself is silent. Coupled with the fact that they have just paid their respects to the sacrificed Marine, under this heavy atmosphere and the special silence of the Dougreg Navy, there is no sound.
Until Kuro and others entered.
The group of people immediately stood up and saluted Kuro and others in unison. Under the white uniform, it looked so impactful.
Kuro nodded and walked to the centermost table and sat down.
His direct subordinates were also sitting at that table.
There was already food on the table, but the others just sat there and did not dare to move.
“Move, what are you waiting for?”
Kuro glanced around and said, “Food is for people to eat, not for people to see. There is no need to take it to heart. Today, I will allow you to drink freely.”
“Vice-Admiral’s order, start!”
A lieutenant colonel at a nearby table shouted.
But no one moved.
Everyone quietly looked at the food in front of the table, a little confused.
Kuro saw this scene and knew why. He sighed and slowly stood up with his wine glass.
Seeing Kuro stand up, the others all looked at him.
Kuro raised his glass and said to everyone:
“Before joining the Marine, we were all ordinary people. Everyone joined the Marine for all kinds of reasons.”
“If you want to uphold justice, protect civilians, have power, or want to live a relatively safe life, there is no better reason. Everyone joined the Marine Corps, which is essentially contributing to the cause of justice.”
“We came from all over the world, from all over the world. We gathered together for the same goal.”
“We have sacrifices. In the confrontation with pirates, we always have sacrifices, but this is not enough to dampen our enthusiasm for Marine. After all, this is the New World, a place where elites gather!”
These words made the G-3 Marines look up in unison.
Yes, this is the New World. They are all battle-hardened elites with amazing willpower and even Haki.
“We have seen the sacrifice. It is a good thing that you are sad, and I am relieved that you have not forgotten the Marines who have been sacrificed. Therefore, with this heart, we will inherit the will of the victims. We dare not say that we can clarify Huanyu and restore peace to the world, but we will do what a Marine should do most.”
“Raise your head, we don’t owe anyone anything, we will still do what we Marines should do, no matter what this world is in the future, Marine’s heart for justice will never change!”
Kuro downed the wine in his glass and raised the empty glass and said to everyone, “Everyone, it’s been hard on you. Drink and win!”
“Yes!!”
Many Marines shouted and raised the wine glass in their hands and drank it in one gulp.
Only then did he sit down, pick up his chopsticks and knife, and start eating.
The silent cafeteria began to become noisy.
“Wahhh.”
Leda kept putting food in her mouth with both hands. The plate next to her was already stacked high.
“Mr. Crowe.”
Basil, who was sitting next to Crowe, raised his glass and approached him. He clinked glasses with him and said, “Now that I have obtained the fruit, I need some special training. After the banquet ends, can you give me a special lecture?”
He said this with a little pride and complacency.
After eating the fruit, his ability surged up. He also knew how to use this ability and instantly became proficient.
After all, his strength is different from an ordinary person who has nothing.
Of course, an ordinary person will gain strength after eating the fruit, but due to his own strength, no matter how good the fruit is, it can’t exert much strength. Compared to a person with real strength, it’s child’s play.
Except for Logia, of course.
Logia is the same as eating a dog.
Of course, Basil didn’t want to ask Crowe for ‘special training’ for no reason. He has been beaten enough on a daily basis, so of course he won’t ask for a beating. But according to his experiment just now, he found that as long as his ability is used well, he can really deflect attacks.
As long as he can deflect Mr. Crowe’s attack, he will not be afraid of being beaten in the future!
At that time, he would no longer have to fear Mr. Crowe’s threat!
“Oh?”
Crowe glanced at him and took a sip of the wine in his glass. “No problem. I’ll help you with your special training later.”
“Uncle, I’m new here and it’s my first time eating with you. Please take care of me in the future.”
On the other side, Moore raised his glass and drank with Donald.
Fanny and Ian were whispering and looking at Kuro from time to time. No one knew what they were saying.
The scene gradually became lively.
“Eat slowly, don’t choke.”
Kuro stared at Lida and then looked at the lively scene. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
This is how it should be. This is comfortable enough.
And to be so comfortable, he needed enough security and stability.
He was going to kill those old men!
