Chapter 881
Bathhouse and Sauna (1)
After settling their route, Kuro finally decided on these Shichibukai.
“The course is decided, then…”
Kuro said in a deep voice, “Hawkeye, Chorakir Mihawk.”
Mihawk rolled his eyes and looked at Kuro.
“Empress, Boa Hancock.”
Hancock stroked her beautiful hair and looked proud.
“King of the desert, Sha Crocodile.”
Crocodile bit his cigar and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
“A thousand dao, Bucky.”
Bucky shrank his head and calculated how many pirates he had to deal with, shivering.
Kuro stood up and said to them, “Congratulations, you are Shichibukai. I hope we can work well together.”
Among them, two people were not invited. One was Bear and the other was Whitebeard II.
Other than Bucky, everyone else looked thoughtful.
“Well… I want to ask.”
Bucky raised his hand and asked, “Why are Tyrant and Whitebeard II missing?”
You have to ask such a question?
Mihawk was expressionless, Hancock showed contempt, Crocodile looked directly at Bucky with disdain.
Kuro pressed the cigar that he had smoked until there was only a small section left in the ashtray and blew out a straight smoke. He said, “About the bear, if you know it, you know it. If you don’t know it, don’t ask. If you don’t know it, you won’t understand it. It’s better not to say it. The implication is too big. As for ‘Whitebeard II’, it’s mainly because I’m not very happy. It’s that simple.”
“It just so happens that you are all here. Is there anyone you are familiar with who can recommend the remaining three empty seats?” Kuro said.
They looked at each other and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Baki had an idea to recommend Shichibukai?
It’s time to show my influence!
As long as he elects someone to be Shichibukai, wouldn’t he have influence?
“Cough, cough!”
Bucky coughed, trying to get the attention of those around him.
“Not likely.”
Crocodile shook his head and said, “Those who are qualified will probably not join. As for those newcomers, I hate newcomers.”
Mihawk and Hancock nodded slightly. As veteran Shichibukai, they looked down on newcomers.
Hancock is a proud man. Although Mihawk admires those who are tenacious and is even willing to train them himself, most of them are swordsmen. He is still proud of others and even looks down on the weak.
Newcomer?
That was nothing.
Currently, most of them would not join Shichibukai.
Crocodile actually liked Marco. They were old acquaintances. They had encountered him when he challenged Whitebeard and joined forces with them in the War of the Best.
Ever since Whitebeard II killed a lot of Whitebeard captains and Marco was defeated by Blackbeard, he has basically hidden in the sea.
But Marco’s combat power is definitely enough.
But… not likely.
It was under Whitebeard, the top Battle Marine personally killed Whitebeard and Ace, Whitebeard will not cooperate with Marines.
Mihawk likes the friend on Red Hair’s side who knows Red Hair as well as the pirate he knows, but Red Hair…
During the War Of The Best, he was cut by Kuro. The last time he went to find Red Hair for a drink, the scar on his chest would still hurt on rainy days. The pirate who was on good terms with Red Hair had a good ambition and probably would not agree to Marine.
As for Hancock… there was nothing that caught his eye except for that straw hat.
“No?” Kuro glanced at the three people and asked.
“Cough, cough!” Bucky coughed again.
The three of them shook their heads at the same time.
“Then forget it, Shichibukai is hard to find, and the World Government has been looking for a long time. Let’s take it slow.” Kuro shook his head.
“Cough cough cough cough!!” Bucky’s throat was about to cough smoke.
“Bucky, is your throat uncomfortable? Do you want to see a doctor?” Kuro looked at him and took out the cigar box with the gold engraving and took out a cigar.
“I mean…”
“Hu… To be honest, this cigar is not bad. Mihawk, are you sure you don’t remember the name of that pirate group? Where is the place of shooting down, is there anyone alive?”
Kuro spewed out a cloud of direct smoke gas like steam and said to Mihawk.
“Listen to me!”
Bucky wanted to roar, but at this moment, his eyes couldn’t help but glance at the golden engraved cigar box.
He had no choice. He liked treasures and wealth. As soon as the cigar box was revealed, it hooked his soul.
“Eh?”
With just a glance, Bucky found the clue and saw the skull flag mark at the bottom.
“That is…”
“Huh? You know him?” Kuro held the cigar box and looked at Bucky.
Bucky nodded. “There seems to be a memory…”
His separated hand flew back at this time, he touched his chin and looked up thinking, “Grand Line? The first half? New World? Where did I see it… Ah!”
He tapped his right palm with his left fist and said, “East Blue! I saw this symbol in East Blue.”
“East Blue?”
Kuro looked at Kuro. “You have been in East Blue for more than twenty years. Can you be sure of the year?”
“Don’t underestimate my memory!”
Bucky shouted, “It should be four years ago. When I was in the bathhouse, I think I saw this sign. Speaking of which, that bathhouse is not bad. It can even be used for sauna…”
“Chloe?”
Kuro looked at Crowe, who was standing at the side, and threw the cigar box over.
Crowe took the cigar box and looked at the skull logo at the bottom. He shook his head and said, “Sorry, Mr. Kuro, I don’t have any impression of that.”
Four years ago, he was still the butler of West Rob Village and did not know anything about East Blue. Even when he was a pirate, he had never seen the symbol of this pirate flag.
This made Kuro ponder. “So, this pirate group is very likely to be a tobacco expert who is obsessed with research. Is he a pirate to not be restrained? Or does he think it’s a trend and hang a tattered pirate flag?”
“Koro, go and look through East Blue’s bounty and see if there is a wanted order for this pirate group.”
“Yes, Mr. Kuro.”
Kuro touched his chin and pondered. After he killed Edward Weeble, he would go back to East Blue and see if he could find him.
With the intelligence network of Marine and the World Government, he didn’t believe that he could find a mere pirate group.
“Alright, the meeting is over. You will find your own station and fulfill your Shichibukai duties.”
“Then I’ll leave first.” Bucky laughed, “Wait for me to come to Jiayuan City!”
His body was scattered into countless pieces. His head, body, hands, and legs flew up and danced outside. Only his feet ran out very quickly.
Die, die, die!
After leaving the door, Bucky’s face became dull.
He’s going to fight those newcomers who are over a hundred million?
What a joke!
He just wanted to get rich and find treasures.
He had to think of a way to get down safely.
“I don’t want to stay here any longer. Goodbye.”
Hancock stood up and walked out with her long legs.
“Moo…”
Crocodile swept up a cloud of sand and disappeared from the seat.
“Yes, I’m leaving too.”
It was Kuro who spoke. He did not want to be alone with Mihawk, for fear that Mihawk would raise the previous challenge again.
“In addition, Crowe, connect to the headquarters and determine the location of Edward Weeble. Then try to inform people and tell them that it’s time to vent.”
Kuro reminded Crowe, bit his cigar, and walked out.
