Chapter 478
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
Pirate Town?
With warm clothes, Kuro raised the Lion Head Island and flew in the direction he remembered.
After flying for a while, Kuro found his destination. It was a huge mountainous island, and the mountain covered almost half of the island.
On this island, there is a huge town connected from the port to the center of the island.
Kuro looked at the sky for a while and descended.
The stormy weather happened to block the view of others.
Kuro landed in a corner of the port town and came out of the corner.
On a stormy day, there were very few people on the street. Some people hurried past wearing hooded cloaks. The surrounding houses were all low bungalows, and the roofs of many houses were simply repaired. It was obvious that they were very poor.
But the strange thing is that the streets of this place are very clean.
âLetâs ask where this is first.â
Kuro stepped forward and was about to walk out of the alley when a hand grabbed his ankle.
âYes?â
He turned to look and saw a hunchback in the corner who was almost lying on the ground under the rainstorm. He did not know where the strength came from, but this personâs thin hand was holding his ankle tightly and he raised his skull-like head full of desire.
âLittle brother, please reward me. I havenât eaten for three days.â
Kuro glanced at him and stretched out his palm. Under the rainstorm, a piece of very good fur inexplicably fell.
He stretched out his hand and separated a piece of fur from the fur and flew to this person.
âI donât have money. My trouser pocket is cleaner than my face. I never bring money when I go out. This fur looks good. You can exchange it for money.â
Kuro moved his feet and pulled the manâs hand away.
âDo you have food? Food is fine. I donât want money,â the man begged.
Kuro frowned. âEveryone says that I have no money and I have hands and feet. Canât I even exchange them?â
âDo you want me to go out! You bad person, I will never go out!â
The beggar gritted his teeth. He did not know where he got the strength to stand up, but he did not pick up the fur. He bumped into Kuro and ran to the corner, quickly disappearing.
In the storm, only his voice remained.
âI wonât go out, I wonât be taken away by themâ¦â
âThis personâ¦â
Kuro was stunned. He raised his hand to float the fur on the ground and grabbed it. âWhatâs wrong?â
He shook his head and walked out of the alley.
Beyond the street was the harbor.
After Kuro left the alley, he turned around and narrowed his eyes.
There were many ships in the port.
However, these ships are basically Pirate Ships. There are scattered ships with strange signs, like merchant ships, but they donât look like they are doing serious business.
âOne Piece Town? It canât be that badâ¦â
Kuro touched his chin and looked at his fur coat. Well, there are no Marine uniforms now, and it is reasonable to say that not many people will recognize him, especially on this stormy day.
âJust in caseâ¦â
Kuro spread his fingers and a few pieces of wreckage boards fell from the sky. The boards broke down in the rainstorm and formed a hat skeleton. Kuro covered the fur with a mask and under the control of his ability, the fur stuck tightly to the skeleton and formed a round fur hat that fell on his head. The brim of the hat was slightly low and covered the upper half of his face.
Kuro nodded and was about to put his hands in his pockets when he realized that there were no pockets on the fur coat at all. He thought for a moment and snapped his fingers. The fur coat sank in on both sides of the waist, forming two pockets for him to put his hands in. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOK, done.â
After doing this, Kuro put one hand in his pocket and grabbed the fur with the other and went into the street.
Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki also covered the entire island at this moment.
As usual, letâs see if there are any strong masters first.
However, the moment the Kenbonshoku (Observation) spread out, Kuro frowned and found that things were not simple.
âThis moodâ¦â
Numbness, anger, resentment, fear, worry⦠These negative emotions were all within his perception.
In the entire town, there were basically such emotions.
In a few places, there were happy and greedy emotions.
Completely polarized.
Kuro turned his head and saw that the windows of the bungalows in front of him were obviously opened a little. Under his gaze, the windows were directly pulled, and some sounds inside could be heard.
âShh, he found us. Hide, we canât be seen by him, we will be taken away.â
âMom, Iâm afraidâ¦â
âDonât be afraid. Mom is here. You will be fine.â
âGod, save usâ¦â
The voice entered Kuroâs ears from a few bungalows. He looked at the closed windows thoughtfully.
âLetâs go and seeâ¦â
He walked towards the only place nearby that exuded greed and joy. Under the perception of Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki, there were the most people gathered there.
It was a tavern with a sign of a wine glass in front of the broken wooden door. The door was closed, but there were noises coming from the broken holes.
With a creak, Kuro pushed open the door. The scene inside was a group of strong or fierce-looking guys with knives or guns in their waists.
Seeing someone push the door and come in, some people looked at him and just glanced at him and did not care.
It seems that this is normal.
There were also some people who looked Kuro up and down with judgmental eyes.
This group of people is different from the pirateâs wild dress, they are dressed a little straight, especially the person who looks like the leader, they are basically wearing formal clothes.
Kuro was very familiar with this kind of person. At that time, he killed a lot of them in Sabaody Archipelago.
Illegal merchants, and most of them were human traffickers.
They were sizing up Kuro, and Kuro was also sizing them up. After taking a look, he walked to the bar counter, put the fur on the table, and said to the strong man in the bar, âExcuse me, how much do you think this thing will cost?â
This type of tavern can generally be used as a pawnshop, including pirate heads with bounties.
The bar owner swept his eyelids and looked at Kuro. His gaze swept across Autumn Water on his waist before he picked up the fur. As soon as he touched it, his gaze fluctuated and he was obviously excited.
âOne hundred thousand Berries.â
He forced himself to be calm and put down the fur calmly. He said in disdain, âOnly I can keep it here. The other places will be pressed harder.â
âForget it, it doesnât matter. Give me a change of food and wine and please tell me what this place is.â
Kuro could tell at a glance that this person was deliberately lowering the price, and he was doing it very hard, but he did not care about this. He did not care about money or anything.
âOkay, Iâll take it firstâ¦â
âHey, hey, hey!â
Just as the bar owner picked up the fur and looked happy, a frivolous voice sounded beside him.
An illegal businessman walked over with a few lackeys and said, âThatâs the fur of a âWinged Lionâ, right? You want to take it for 100,000 Berries. Dick, is it really good for you to do this?â
âAngusâ¦â The bar ownerâs face changed.
The person called Angus approached and snatched the fur from Boss Dickâs hand and said, âThis kind of raw material is well preserved and the craftsmanship is not bad. It is worth at least five million Berries. I say, little brother, why notâ¦â
âYou want to buy it?â Kuro looked over.
âNo, I meanâ¦â
He quickly took out a gun from his waist, pointed it at Kuro, and grinned. âHow about giving it to me?â
The lackeys behind him all laughed out loud at this moment, each of them looking threatening.
