Chapter 75

Actually, I Want to Leave, I Don’t Want to Stay

At that speed, they would be here soon.

Even if they leave now, it will be too late. Marine still needs to reorganize. While they are reorganizing, Golden Lion will come over. He can’t expect Golden Lion to not be domineering, right?

Moreover, there are people on this island.

“Calm down, calm down!”

Kuro took a deep breath. In the face of such a famous pirate, he had to think.

I can’t expect him to be like the main characters and be helped by the heavens.

Instead of counting on that kind of thing, it would be better to count on a bolt of lightning to kill this old thing now. He still had to strike it in a direct manner. It wouldn’t work even if he missed. He would definitely be killed by one bolt.

However, in the face of known opponents, Kuro was not too afraid.

What humans think is the most dangerous is, of course, the unknown.

This was also the reason why Kuro felt that he was not strong enough and did not want to go to the Grand Line, let alone to the New World.

There are too many peculiar metahumans.

His swordsmanship is a barrier ability that even Gods can’t cut.

The ability to make people age backwards by more than ten years.

It also has the ability to turn people into toys.

Or the ability to make people smaller and older.

The ability to be abnormally depressed after being pierced by a ghost.

This is the power of a miracle. It’s best if it can only effectively hit the body of an ability user. Hit ability? No one can do that yet.

Above the sea, there should be more than these treacherous abilities.

There were also those powerhouses who were so powerful that they could almost destroy the world.

These were the ones that Kuro did not want to encounter. He was still too weak.

But now that he can’t avoid it, the known is better than the unknown.

He could still operate a wave.

“Let me think. Golden Lion is now in his seventies or eighties. His physical fitness will decline as he gets older.”

The older, the stronger?

Stop it.

When you are old, your physical fitness will definitely decline.

“Moreover, he disappeared for 20 years, that is, 20 years without fighting. There is no big impact, and his combat experience will degrade a lot.”

“I remember that this guy has a rudder on his head, which affects his Haki performance. Haoshoku should be gone, and Kenbonshoku (Observation) will also degenerate a lot.”

“As for my current strength, the old man is right. I am a general candidate and there is a gap between me and the generals and Yonkō (Four Emperors), but the current Golden Lion is also a gap from them.”

Kuro narrowed his eyes. “It can operate a wave!”

Actually, he wanted to leave, but he didn’t want to stay.

However, the Golden Lion was clearly close. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

I can’t leave!

If he passively waited for Golden Lion to come over, he would have to consider his subordinates and civilians in the battle. Moreover, if he fought in front of them, the outcome would be known and it would not be in line with his original intention.

Then there is only one choice!

“Lida, Crowe, follow me!”

Kuro gritted his teeth. “Let’s go and meet that legendary big pirate!”

“No way, that’s a Golden Lion.”

Leda’s face was strange and she shouted: “You are going to deal with him?!”

“Well, can I stay and reorganize the Marines and civilians? I think they need me.”

Crowe raised his hand.

He did not want to go at all.

“Do you think I want to go?!”

Kuro glared at Crowe. “I don’t care. You have to follow me. I can’t be safe, and you want to be calm? Dream on!”

“Besides, your combat power is enough. One more person and one more combat power.”

With that, Kuro stepped on the air and directly stepped out of the wall that had been shattered by the slash, turning into an afterimage and flying out.

Leda sighed. “Crossing the sea… It’s so troublesome. I’ll be hungry again.”

She adjusted the snack backpack on her back and followed him with Geppō (Moonwalk).

Crowe had no choice but to step into the air with Geppō (Moonwalk) and step towards the sea.

Geppō (Moonwalk) is the most practical of the Six Moves. As long as you have enough stamina, no one can stop you from stepping from East Blue to Headquarters.

But basically no one would be so bored, and no one has so much stamina.

Kuro didn’t stop and sensed the location of the Golden Lion. He stepped on the air above the sea and went straight forward.

Above the East China Sea, there are several huge islands. The islands are connected together, forming a group of floating islands, and on the largest island, there is a palace.

Inside the palace, an old man with valiant golden hair, a rudder on his head, and a cigar in his mouth smiled.

“Oh? The meteorite I controlled was destroyed?”

He could naturally sense the island under his control. Now that the size of the island is gone, it must have been destroyed.

“I just saw a town and wanted to destroy it. I didn’t expect there to be a surprise. Is there a strong person?”

The man sitting on the throne revealed a sinister smile. “The strong masters of East Blue, it must be interesting to destroy them!”

He did not think that it could be destroyed by cannons. The size of the island is so large that ordinary artillery shells cannot do it. Moreover, the island that he threw down was destroyed in an instant.

Puff, puff, puff, puff…

A series of extremely strange fart-like footsteps sounded.

“Master Shiki, three people were observed approaching.”

The person had a clown face that looked like it had been washed by white powder. He raised his hand and a projection appeared on the opposite wall. On the projection, it was the scene of Kuro and the other two gradually approaching.

Golden Lion’s eyes widened and he said incredulously, “Hey, it can fly?!”

**TIP**

“It’s Geppō (Moonwalk)!”

Indigo hit Golden Lion and said, “Master Shiki, it’s Marine.”

“Marine? Marine…”

Shiki looked at the projected image. “Have we been discovered by Marines?”

“Yes, but these Marines seem to want to come and find out.” Indigo laughed.

“Hahahaha!”

Shiki laughed boldly. “Young people nowadays are so bold to come here. Hey, Indigo, when will the IQ be completed!”

“Soon, Master Shiki.” Indigo smiled.

Shiki grinned and said, “Then let’s start with an appetizer. Let these young people remember the fear of Golden Lion!”

“Twenty years, twenty years. Soon, the World Government, Marines… the top war and fear will come soon!!!”

He had spent 20 years for this IQ creature, and now he was about to succeed!

“Roger, the sea where you were born is about to be destroyed by me. Well, it’s best to use it to commemorate you, although it’s twenty years late.”

… .

“Kuro, there is an island there, it is so big!”

In the sky, Leda jumped in the air with Geppō (Moonwalk). Soon, she pointed to a huge floating island in the sky and shouted in surprise.

“It’s really big…”

Crowe looked up at the sky and swallowed his saliva. It was more than big. In addition to the large and small islands, the large island in the center was actually surrounded by seawater, forming a floating sea!

“Fruit ability users are really monsters!”

Kuro cursed and sped up.

Aokiji can freeze the sea surface to the extent that a person can walk for four or five days.

Now, this old guy directly floated the seawater up.
