"Tina can't take it anymore."

"Hold on a little longer."

"But Tina is so tired, she wants to rest."

"But I want more, let's hold on a little longer."

"All right..."

A woman's voice rang out in a warehouse area at the port of Marineford.

Inside a warehouse, Tina was covered in sweat, and black guns were already everywhere around her.

Beside her, Chloe, Dakuro, and the other two watched.

"That's enough, I'm too tired, I need to go back and rest."

Tina filled the warehouse to the brim, wiped the sweat from her brow, took out a cigarette, lit it, and said.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Tina." Kuro nodded quickly.

Two days' worth is indeed enough.

Moreover, Tina was clearly getting impatient, and Kuro didn't want to annoy this major grain producer; he wanted to find time to have Tina continue producing.

After seeing Tina off, Kuro's eyes gleamed as he looked at the black guns, reaching out to touch them one by one, uttering intoxicatedly, "My little darlings..."

After returning home from drinking that night, Kuro met with Tina early the next morning and asked her to create black guns. Looking at the warehouse that was almost full of black guns, Kuro couldn't hide his smile.

This method of construction has been in place for two days.

It's impossible to build only this one warehouse in two days. The surrounding warehouses are already full of these black guns, and Kuro has already touched them all. They are already in his possession.

Nothing makes me feel safer than seeing these black guns!

"Maintaining this ability requires stamina, right? Does Mr. Kuro have enough stamina? He seems to have sent quite a few things up before."

Kro was a little curious. After all, all he knew were a few large islands, a sea mass, and the black gun that basically filled most of the warehouse area. How much stamina did he have left?

Lida curled her lip. "Don't compare normal people to this freak. Have you forgotten how he defeated the Golden Lion?"

Kro adjusted his glasses. "Never mind."

It seems that he defeated the Golden Lion by simply wearing him down with sheer physical strength.

A man who can maintain his full armor coloration for five consecutive days must have incredible stamina; otherwise, he wouldn't exist.

The Float-Float Fruit's power, combined with Clow's ability to maintain it around the clock without showing any signs of fatigue, is truly a perfect match.

Instead of spending time speculating about me, you should think about how to avoid headquarters and give me a reason to leave.

After Kuro finished counting the black guns, he turned to Kro and said.

Recently, the number of naval forces in Marineford has increased significantly, with many naval personnel going out on patrols. This indicates that the forces in the Grand Line have begun to move inwards. Even Kuro has seen some elite naval forces from all four seas, mostly at the rank of lieutenant commander or higher.

Colonels like Tina rarely return to headquarters, but this time, she will be staying for a long time.

Although the newspapers had not yet disclosed it, the storm of war was already brewing.

Kuro is in a hurry!

While making preparations, he remained determined and actively sought opportunities to go out into the world.

But as of now, no.

Kizaru's path is a dead end.

The old man couldn't let him go, not because of the Marineford War, but because he had also contacted Kizaru in the past two days, and Kizaru was trying to prevent him from causing trouble.

The matter of Morgana was suppressed, and Kizaru played a significant role in this. Prince Morgana's death was treated as a mere accident.

However, the situation of those citizens was also covered up by the world government.

No scandals have been exposed in Morgati; in the eyes of the world, it was simply a prince who died in an accident.

The two cancel each other out, and Kuro is completely unharmed.

However, correspondingly, he is temporarily unable to take action.

Now, Kuro is thinking about who to find a breakthrough from.

Smoker?

Kuro now wants to punch him whenever he sees him, and he has lost Kuro's trust.

Tina?

She is now unable to move around freely.

Kobi?

The location is too low; it's practically useless.

Fighting Momomaru?

It seems to work.

But his purpose in coming here is to test the Pacifistas, so we probably won't have to bother him during this time.

After thinking it over, Kuro sighed, waved his hand, and walked outside.

"I'm going home to lie down first. You guys go do whatever you need to do."

Having been promoted to major, Kuro naturally had his own house in Marineford, and thanks to Kizaru's buff, his house was now quite large, a detached house.

However, in today's world, you can build a house anywhere you want. Just find an unclaimed island and build a house as big as you want, and no one will bother you.

Even in countries with established communities, you can still occupy a piece of wasteland and build a house.

Kuro, on the other hand, wasn't worried about settling down.

He plans to stay home obediently for the next few days and not go anywhere, while also looking for an opportunity to go out and set up a post or something.

...

Two more days passed.

Kuro sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, a steaming cup of tea in front of him. He picked up the cup, took a sip, and watched the clouds drift by outside the window, feeling utterly at ease.

If it weren't for the Marineford War, staying at headquarters would have been quite nice.

"Hmm... Marineford won't be the headquarters anymore after the war ends. I'll try to stay here then and just retire here in Marineford."

Kuro sipped his tea, lost in thought.

"How about we hire a maid? It's too spacious with just one person in the house."

Lida and Kuro also bought houses nearby. They were only lieutenants, so although they were assigned places to live, they weren't very good. So, in the last couple of days, they bought two houses near Kuro's house.
