Chapter 996
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
Kuro didnât move in the face of OâKadiâs challenge, but Crowe stepped on the edge of the ship and jumped down, landing on the island opposite OâKadi.
âMr. Kuro doesnât need to do anything, I am enough, you despicable sneak attack!â Crowe said coldly.
O.C.D. revealed a sinister smile and glared. A soul-stirring aura suddenly emitted from behind him and shot out like a violent wind.
Most of the 2,000 Marines of the Golden Lion were hit by this momentum. Their eyes rolled back and they lay down.
Haoshoku!
âOhâ¦â
Kuro glanced back at the Marines lying on the ground. âThere really is Haoshoku. Itâs not fake intelligence.â
The information that O.C.D. gave about Robert Henry contained Haoshoku (Haoshoku), which is himself. This is actually not fake.
This is a man with qualifications.
âHaoshokuâ¦â
Croweâs body stiffened, and then he grew a little bigger. The top half of his face was covered by the wolfâs head, and his limbs spread out with black hair and sharp claws, completing the human-beast transformation.
âBut this level is useless to me! I follow Mr. Kuro around. Your Haoshoku is too weak!â
The quality of Kuroâs killing intent, or the Haoshoku of Barret, is much stronger than this person. Kuro has always been by Kuroâs side and has been attacked by his late-stage Sa. He has also experienced the war between Kuro and Barret.
He could even hold back the mixture of killing intent and Haoshoku. This Haoshoku is not enough!
âIs that so⦠I havenât awakened for long, but I still have the Kingâs aptitude.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
ó Kádi gripped his sword with both hands and raised it. âYou or anyone else, just Marine will do. I will not go easy on a pirate like me. You canât blame me if you die!â
âSpeed Shave!â
Crowe narrowed his eyes and his body flashed, turning into a black shadow as he ran straight.
Dang!
O.C.D. waved his sword and the blade blocked in front of him. A spark flashed on the blade.
Crowe grabbed his sword with his wolf claws and bared his teeth. âStop boasting, we donât know who will die!â
In response to this, ó Kadi revealed a sneer. He shook his long sword forward and directly blocked Croweâs claws. At the same time, he pulled his long sword in and rolled up a wave of air.
âSword Blowing Mist!â
The long sword swung away, bringing with it a mess of slashes.
âIron block!â
Crowe had just been blocked and did not have time to dodge. Seeing the slash approach, his body tensed.
Ding ding ding!
The slash hit his body, tearing his clothes and making a crisp sound on the surface of his body.
âTempest Kick: Chaos!â
After blocking the slash, Crowe raised his legs and quickly kicked out afterimages in front of him. The afterimages carried countless light blue slashes directly towards O.C.D.
O.C.D. stepped on the air and escaped from the direction of the attack. However, just as he jumped up, Croweâs figure disappeared and he quickly appeared behind him and kicked his back.
Bang!
With this step, ó Kadi stopped and landed on the ground. He waved his sword and slashed towards Crowe in the air.
âIron Fist: Collapse!â
Crowe punched out and his fist hit Chop, shattering Chop with a bang. At the same time, he stepped in the air and his body disappeared, pulling a black line in the air and appearing behind ó Kádi. His arm was like a whip, with the cold light of claws, he swung it directly.
Chi!!
ó Cádiâs back stiffened and he was caught by four claw marks. He took a step forward and quickly rolled. As he rolled, he slashed back with his sword and happened to hit the afterimage that Crowe revealed.
Bang!
Crowe appeared beside him and kicked OâChadi away. He slid on the ground for more than ten meters before stopping. He quickly stood up and held the long sword in his hand. Ignoring the footprints on his face and the blood at the corner of his mouth, he narrowed his eyes and said, âGood speed.â
Under the moonlight, a green light flashed in Croweâs eyes and he grinned. âYou will not be my opponent!â
âEh? Is Croweâs speed a little faster than before?â
On the deck, Leda said softly.
âMoon Wolf.â
Kuro looked up at the moon that was half covered by clouds and said, âAt night, there is still the moon. The increase in combat power is comparable to that of the Fur Tribe.â
The power of the Fur Tribe in the state of âFull Moonâ is several times that of the normal state, which is beyond Kro.
âIt doesnât matter whether Iâm your opponent or not. Iâm a pirate and youâre a Marine. Itâs as simple as that.â
O.C.D. said lightly, âEither you kill me or I kill you. This is our relationship.â
âStupid.â
Crowe said disdainfully, âInstead of going with a bright future, you insist on courting death here. With your qualifications, you can just go back and report your duties. Even if you are the captain, there wonât be any problems.â
Hearing this, ó Kadi lowered his eyesâ¦
⦠.
âVice Admiral Sturt! Vice Admiral Sturt!â
O.C.D. was carrying Vice-Admiral Stead, who was covered in blood. The Vice-Admiralâs white hair was stained with blood, surrounded by dead pirates lying on the ground.
âHold on, Vice-Admiral, the medical team will be here soon!â OâCardy, who was wearing a Marine cloak, shouted.
The old Vice-Admiral Steer shook his head and smiled. He said softly, âI am glad that as a Marine, I died in the battle with the pirates and not in a hospital bedâ¦â
That was in the South China Sea. At that time, he was a Marine Captain in the Headquarters and accompanied his superior, Vice-Admiral Stett, back to his hometown for a vacation. In the end, he saw the town being burned by the Pirates. Vice-Admiral Stett fell into the piratesâ trap and died after being exhausted.
That pirate group is the famous Long Sword Pirates of the South China Sea.
That was ten years ago, and this matter was concealed by Sengoku, who was a Marshal at that time, and he let ó Kádi enter the âSwordâ team and defected on the grounds of killing his superior.
And he, who had been drifting in the sea for several days, joined the mysterious Long Sword Pirates with the death of Vice-Admiral Strat as proof of allegiance.
At that time, his mind was filled with revenge and his duty as a Marine.
However, during the Great Age of Pirates, there were so many pirates in various places that Marine was overwhelmed. No matter how O.C.D. reported their location, the countermeasures given by the higher-ups were to ignore the less destructive Longsword Pirates than other pirate groups and pay close attention to their movements.
As O.C.D., who had just joined the Pirates at that time, he also felt that he did not know much, so he went into hiding.
In the first year, with his reputation of killing Vice-Admiral and the defected Marine Captain, he quickly obtained a position in the Long Sword Pirates and came to the side of the Long Sword Pirates Captain who was then the âHiltâ.
At that time, he was still full of anger. It was also at that time that his anger gradually subsided when he met that man.
âYou are the defector Marine Captain? Itâs a pity. Itâs good to be a Marine. Thereâs no need to be a pirate.â
It was a hearty uncle named Robert Franz.
âAh? You said you donât accept Marineâs corruption? Hahaha, there is corruption everywhere. Anyway, welcome to the Long Sword Pirates, but I donât have the excitement you want here. The Long Sword Pirates have existed for a hundred years and have always been low-key. Just treat this place as your new home.â
Franz patted O Cuddy on the shoulder and laughed.
