"A man?"

Yamato pondered these words, then suddenly thought of the little golden statue he had encountered earlier, and asked curiously, "Is it that man who's always puffing out smoke? It reminds me of an incense burner..."

"That's Kuro!"

Lida retorted, "Hey, show some respect! I, Kuro, am a general!"

"A Navy Admiral?!"

Yamato was startled and instinctively looked at Robin, "Hey, Robin..."

Although they hadn't known each other for long, she thought this woman seemed to be the smartest one in the Straw Hat crew.

"Wait, General?!"

Nami exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't he a vice admiral?!"

She remembered that Kuro was a vice admiral. Although he was terrifying, only that idiot Luffy was wrong. After his last visit, he kept saying that he had met the "Incense Burner Admiral", but he should still be a vice admiral. Now the Navy has personally admitted that he is an admiral?

Robin thought for a moment and said, "We've heard them call him that before. After all, we've been here for a long time, so it's normal that we don't know anything about the outside world. It should be right. That man, Jin Ni, is a general."

But... who abdicated?

Fujitora?

Still in the Green Bull of Mary Geoise?

Or perhaps it's the consistently reliable Kizaru?

However, Robin didn't have any particular feelings about these three. On the contrary, she had heard a lot of rumors about the Golden Lion when she was still in the Revolutionary Army.

Headquarters considers Cass to be an obstacle to the Revolutionary Army. His strange and infectious ideas and words have disrupted several of their operations. However, they are not fundamentally at odds. The Navy's main enemy is pirates, while the Revolutionary Army's main enemy is the World Government, or more accurately, the CP organization under the World Government. The Navy and the Revolutionary Army avoid each other when they encounter each other.

Although both are subordinate agencies of the World Government, and the Navy also labels the Revolutionary Army as 'evil,' they rarely encounter each other, as if both sides are intentionally avoiding each other.

Therefore, when they encountered Cass, the Revolutionary Army's actions had to be put on hold. The two sides could not create conflict because of this, and the Revolutionary Army could not create any more enemies. However, Cass had sometimes thwarted their many attempts to overthrow other kingdoms. As Cass's superior, Kuro was naturally a key target of their surveillance.

You don't know until you investigate, and once you do, you find out a lot. That's when Robin learned that this guy had been in the East Blue for nearly ten years.

The Revolutionary Army initially estimated that this Golden Lion was already qualified to make a name for himself on the Grand Line fourteen years ago, when he was fourteen years old, but he just didn't leave the East Blue. He nurtured a figure like Cass in the East Blue. In addition, Robin also knew about the change of king in Dressrosa. Even before they entered Wano Country, the commotion Dressrosa caused in the world made it hard for Robin to believe that the Marine had no ulterior motives.

According to the Revolutionary Army's intelligence, the king was also personally chosen by him, and the Revolutionary Army even went to see the governing philosophy of the "Conqueror King" David. This was because the Revolutionary Army previously believed that the "Conqueror King's" conquest process was too brutal, and that he was a very warlike king. If he was warlike, it meant that the people in the country would not live well because of the war.

They were planning to overthrow the regime, but after going to their territory and taking a tour, the revolutionaries were rather frustrated.

Something's not right. They've overthrown quite a few countries, and they've had their share of brutal and warlike kings. But war costs money and manpower. Often, the result is that the people are penniless, and the casualties lead to widespread suffering, creating the conditions that allow them to overthrow these countries.

But how come things are getting better and better in Dressrosa?

Not only on his own islands, but also in the conquered territories, King David fulfilled his promise, enabling those places to live the same way as Dressrosa, and even integrating the strengths of all sides to create a diverse and large nation.

How did you do that?

Their revolutionary army's ideal is also to enable the people to live a good life, but the Celestial Dragons are blocking their way. Their existence severely disrupts the people's lives. If it weren't for the Celestial Dragons, the king wouldn't be so crazy about collecting taxes. Even if a good king were appointed, the people might be liberated at first, but after a while, the heavy taxes still wouldn't make things much better for them.

But Dressrosa is different. They collect taxes, they wage war, and they conquer, yet they live better than anyone else!

Even some members of the Revolutionary Army wavered and secretly joined Dressrosa. This was all news that Robin received from her fellow Revolutionary Army members before she entered Wano Country.

And the source of all this is the Golden Lion, Lucilfer Kuro!

So far, he has personally promoted two representatives, one is Kas and the other is David, both of whom have caused trouble for the Revolutionary Army. However, his actions also seem to have an impact on the World Government, making it difficult for them to determine his true stance. But one thing is certain: he is not as simple as he appears!

They're not like the propaganda portrays them, some kind of righteous navy that's the nemesis of the old era and has defeated countless great pirates; they're not that simple.

He was an extremely terrifying man, both in terms of combat prowess and ideology.

In comparison, Blackbeard, who is now one of the new Four Emperors and is disliked by Luffy, is not as threatening as this man in Robin's eyes.

"general!"

Hearing Robin's words, Nami covered her head in terror, her face pale. "Isn't the Admiral's words even more terrifying? That man is already terrifying enough. I don't want to go up against him; people will die!"
