As he spoke, he sighed, "Do you think it's the era thirty years ago when people would panic at the sight of a pirate flag? That's all in the past. Now, people treat pirate flags as novelties, and not many are afraid of them."
"I know that."
Victoria knew exactly what the world was like, so she didn't think being a pirate was any good. But the problem was that she was already on the pirate ship, and she was the first one to be wanted. If that bald guy said he didn't want to be a pirate anymore, she would really be the only one left to be hanged.
"Then be careful!"
Victoria rallied her spirits: "Mimir, go gather some intelligence and see if there are any suitable recruits. Seaa, go buy supplies, I'm going to find our bald captain!"
Mimir nodded: "It's always good to be careful, as long as we don't attract attention, then..."
"Hey! Where's the execution platform?! Tell me quickly, I want to go there and see it, then set off to become the Pirate King!!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice from not far away made them all freeze, turning their heads to look in that direction.
There was that shiny bald guy, yelling at a group of sailors on the street.
"What an idiot!" the three exclaimed in unison.
Who tells people they're going to become a pirate, especially when the target is the Navy?!
The leading navy officer silently turned around in front of the bald man, and at that moment, sweat streamed down Mimir's face.
“That guy is…” Mimir’s lips twitched, “He can’t be that unlucky, can he?”
The navy officer wore a monocle, his clothes were very neat and clean, and he looked like a gentleman. He was also wearing a navy cape.
Monocle, navy cape... these features suggest that only one person in Loguetown would be dressed like this.
Lil Crowe, the naval captain stationed in Loguetown, nicknamed "The Cunning Fox"!
...
Lyle Crowe.
He is not simply a naval captain stationed in Loguetown. There are many branch captains in the world, but Loguetown is an exception, or rather, the East China Sea is an exception.
This place has produced many heroes in the past, including a figure who ruled the world—Lucil Kuro.
As the largest transit point between the East Blue and the Grand Line, guarding Loguetown means guarding the gate and preventing any dangerous elements from entering the Grand Line, nipping them in the bud.
Moreover, Lyle Crowe was a subordinate of that man's faction.
Kuro was proud of this. Although his surname was different, his first name was exactly the same as that of the World Government's Chief of Staff, who was also his superior's superior. His superior was the famous Navy Vice Admiral, Sazel Kuro!
That's the same name as the savior!
Within the largest faction, he guarded the gates of his own faction's leadership, naturally doing his utmost and daring not to make the slightest mistake.
Since he arrived in Loguetown, virtually no pirates have been able to land there and then set sail again.
But now, someone is actually asking him where the execution platform is, and... he wants to become the Pirate King?
"you..."
Kro turned around and was immediately struck by the shiny bald head. He blinked instinctively, but still couldn't make out the man's face, so he asked directly:
Do you know what you're saying?
