After listening to Lida describe Cass's transformation, Kuro stared wide-eyed at her. "So, that thing is Cass accelerated?"

Seeing the two nod, a strange look appeared on Kuro's face.

Good heavens, this is a group speed boost of five times?

Frank had seen it before; a group of three times that number was about right. And Cass had only been eating the fruit for a short time.

Moreover, the power brought about by that will was much stronger than before.

Even Kuro himself had to exclaim in admiration, "What the hell!"

What a thing it was! That giant white shadow, like a ghost, moved incredibly fast across the battlefield, occasionally swallowing pirates and then spitting them out, leaving the pirates lying on the ground covered in wounds.

With their speed, strength, and numbers, they were quite efficient at dealing with pirates.

This saved Kuro some trouble. What he originally wanted was to free up his hands to deal with these pirates, although he always believed that once a person has a stance, they must pay a certain price.

Navy, pirates, revolutionary army, royal army, etc... these are all stances. Dying for the sake of killing pirates is something one should do.

Kuro is a member of the Navy; no matter how much he slacks off, he still has to consider his position and the casualties.

Previously, the Navy's casualties weren't that high, and Kuro could slack off as much as he wanted, but now the situation is different.

The top brass were all tied up. Although Sengoku and Garp had the advantage against Shanks, it was still a long way off before a decisive victory could be achieved. Under these circumstances, even if they won, the Navy would be crippled.

High-ranking combat personnel are not so easy to cause problems and are difficult to kill, but high-ranking personnel alone cannot form the entire navy.

Mid-level and even lower-level combat capabilities are the foundation of the navy. If this part has problems, the current world situation will be completely changed.

If high combat power alone could solve the problem, then there wouldn't be so many marines. Sengoku and Garp could have easily led the three admirals and vice admirals to dominate the world. Back then, Rocks had so many high-level combatants, and he would have conquered the world long ago.

The world doesn't work that way. Even Whitebeard, who was once the 'strongest,' couldn't truly have everything he wanted.

If casualties are not prevented, and the navy fails to provide timely support to the world once the war ends, the aftermath will be a huge headache.

Kuro wants safety and comfort, not trouble or danger.

"spread..."

Kuro gripped his sword and looked at the blond samurai lying in a pool of blood. Before he could even draw his sword, a blond pirate wearing a black pirate bandana and sunglasses broke away from the vice admiral he was fighting and stood in front of the blond samurai.

He was also a high-ranking officer in the Red-Haired Pirates, but at this moment his expression was solemn. He stared intently at Kuro while glancing at the Marines, including Cass, who were like a meat grinder on the battlefield.

"Beckman, use your invincible brain to think of a solution!" the blond pirate suddenly shouted.

Beckman withstood several of Kizaru's attacks, then stepped back a few paces, widening the distance between himself and Kizaru, his face darkening.

The situation is starting to change, and it's very dangerous.

The original balance of power began to shift to one-sided after that twisted and grotesque group joined the battle, especially after that troublesome Marine named Kuro got rid of Blackbeard's entanglement.

Their original purpose in coming here was to stop the war and to ensure that Marco and his companions could return to the New World safely, preventing the situation in the New World from being disrupted.

According to Beckman and his captain's original plan, even if Whitebeard died, he would still cause considerable casualties to the Marine Headquarters. At that time, if the war was stopped, Marco would return to the New World, and the Marines, having suffered casualties, would not take any impulsive actions, and the balance of the world would remain.

However, to their surprise, the casualties at the Navy Headquarters this time were far less than expected, with extremely minor casualties. Beckman had figured out the main reason: the Navy officer named Kuro, who could manipulate seawater, was the primary cause.

Therefore, the goal of preventing the war was changed to continuing to participate in the war, at least until the naval casualties reached a certain standard before they could withdraw.

Fortunately, Teach stopped Kuro, so there was still a chance.

I just didn't expect that Teach would run away so fast and let Kuro come back. But it doesn't matter. Our own officers are not weak either. If they fight, it won't be clear who wins for a while.

That troublesome Marine named Kuro will be held off by his own officers, and everything will be left to the captain. The longer the captain can hold out, the greater their gains will be.

He never expected that the twisted and ferocious white-clad navy would go to such lengths...

Even if a large group of naval forces came to restrain them, they would still be at a disadvantage in a battle of their caliber, and it would still take a considerable amount of time to determine the winner. Moreover, doing so would actually align with Beckman's plan.

They could take this opportunity to slaughter the navy and weaken its current momentum.

But something's not right with that group now. It's more than just a distraction; it doesn't look like individual naval units gathered together at all. Their orderly combat style is unheard of. If they were all together, they would be about the strength of a vice admiral.

This not only greatly restrained their own cadres, but also gave Kuro an opportunity.

This would give the Navy an extra major combat force that could be freed up, while their high-level combat power would be in a state of decline. In addition, with that strange Navy that began to break into the battlefield, their casualties would be even greater.
