Chapter 895
You Can’t Escape
Kuro did not know what William was thinking, but he was now flying the Golden Lion directly over the Red Earth where Mariejois was, and then from the first half of the Grand Line straight from the Calm Belt to the East China Sea.
Of course, the Golden Lion also has the Windless Belt navigation technology that the Grand Battleship has, although it can be said to be more convenient, such as directly carrying the Battleship across the Calm Belt.
But that’s too troublesome. It’s better to put it in the sea.
This time, he did not bring many people with him. In addition to Leda and Crowe, he only brought Pallas and Basil. Marines only brought 1,500 people.
An ordinary army ship has 800 people, which can reach 1,000, but 300 people can maintain the basic operation of an army ship.
The Golden Lion is not an ordinary sailing ship. It is a steam-powered ship with many fortresses on board. It is a huge ship that can accommodate three thousand people. It needs at least a thousand people to operate.
Kaz and Wilbur took 1,000 people with them as escorts. Normally, Marines who stayed behind in G-3 had to patrol and escort them, and a lot of people had to stay behind, but they still looked nervous.
The basic patrol ships will not be too big. They will use a large army ship and two medium-sized warships or directly medium-sized warships, but the number of people is also very tight.
G-3, like him, is already the fortress with the largest number of personnel except for the new Headquarters and Marien Vando. The number of Marines is as high as 5,000 and it still looks very nervous.
It can be imagined how nervous the other Marine branches are. On the Grand Line, if a branch can use a cruise, the number of people is almost the same. Unless they do not stay behind, it can be seen that the personnel on the sea are also quite tight, especially after the Great Age of Pirates, there is a trend of being overwhelmed.
At this moment, in the cafeteria of the Golden Lion.
The cafeteria is divided into four floors. The first floor is the place where ordinary Marine soldiers eat, and there are the most of them. The second floor is the place where Captain Marines eat, and there are also many people. The third floor is the place where Field Officers eat.
Before G-3, there was no General except for Kuro, but it became a place for Kuro’s trusted subordinates to eat. Now, Crowe and Leda have been promoted to Rear Admiral after the transition, but they are used to eating. If they really want a private party, there are private rooms in the cafeteria.
Besides, Leda would go up often and eat on the fourth floor.
The fourth floor was where Kuro ate alone.
At this time, in the room of the Fourth City, Kuro was cutting a juicy steak with a knife and fork. In front of him was a large amount of delicious food made by the radium, and there was a bottle of red wine next to it. Beside him, there were already more than ten plates.
Kuro’s own appetite is not small. It is normal for him to eat more than ten empty plates in a meal. But at this time, he was holding a knife and fork with his eyes closed, and a vein gradually appeared on his forehead.
“Ah wu wu wu wu!”
Because beside him, there was also a huge plate piled up. A short white-haired Lolita was eating crazily at the side. Her hands were like afterimages, causing the food on the table to gradually decrease.
“Lida!!”
Kuro couldn’t help but slam the knife and fork in his hand down. He turned his head and shouted, “How many times have I told you not to make a sound when eating? Who taught you that!”
“Ah…”
Leda paused and glanced at Kuro, then went back to stuffing food.
“Ah wu wu wu wu!”
“Enough!”
Kuro held his forehead in pain and leaned back in his chair. He sighed and said, “It’s not easy for me to enjoy a break to eat. If you want to eat, go down and eat. Why do you always come to me!”
Boom!
At this moment, there was a loud noise outside. Kuro turned his head and looked over. He also had floor-to-ceiling windows on the fourth floor, and he could see that in the calm sea outside, a sea beast the size of the Golden Lion appeared. But soon, an afterimage swept over and he saw a mass of blood explode and the sea beast was directly cut into several pieces.
Crowe landed on the body of the sea beast and licked his claws.
“Oh? This thing is a bit like a codfish…”
Kuro took a closer look at the size of the sea beast. This thing looked like a leopard, but it looked a little like a codfish. Its whole body was white, so he said to Lida:
“Don’t eat it, let the stork get the caviar out of this thing and eat some caviar.”
The sea beasts on the sea are very strange, especially the Sea Kings. They are huge in size and there are many kinds of them. They have a variety of appearances and their lifespan is very long.
However, it was also delicious.
For a fish like this, Kuro can tell at a glance whether it has the characteristics of a salmon or white. The caviar of an albino salmon is very delicious.
The Sea Kings in the Calm Belt always have a particularly good essence. Even if some of them are poisonous, you can find the most delicious part from them.
However, he could not stay here for long. The smell of blood from the dead sea beasts would attract the Sea Kings.
One or two is fine, but if there are more than ten at once, Kuro can only fly the ship.
Once there are more than 10 Sea Kings, it will not be just 10 Sea Kings. There will definitely be a large number of Sea Kings in the future. It is better not to provoke such things.
“I got it.”
Leda nodded and swept the food off the table like a tornado. She covered her stuffed mouth and ran out.
Kuro touched his chest and took out the gold-patterned cigar box and took out a cigar.
He was afraid that he would never be able to find this thing again, so he didn’t smoke it. After taking this one, there are still six left.
But now that he had found the person, it did not matter.
“Hu…”
After lighting the cigar, he exhaled a stream of white steam-like smoke and smacked his lips. “It’s really exciting. Unfortunately, it’s a pirate…”
In front of the World Government and Marine, there is nothing that can’t be found. The only difference is how much power is used.
In a few days, Kuro will probably get the information he wants. No matter how well you hide it, you can find it for him.
What a joke!
He had been in East Blue for so many years, but he was still turned upside down!
When he was in Headquarters, some people began to ask him how many pirates he had killed in East Blue.
Of course, it is impossible for Kuro to admit this kind of thing, but it shows a phenomenon that some things can be inferred without evidence.
As long as the pirate named William did something, there would definitely be traces and traces that could be deduced.
Next, it was a question of whether his inference was big or not, depending on how Kuro dealt with him.
If the impact is benign, Kuro will simply buy a cigar making method from him or buy his goods directly.
If it’s a bad influence…
Sorry.
You have to bear the helplessness of the world that I bear. You can’t escape!
