Kuro has always looked down on the Revolutionary Army. Their skill level is secondary; they can be taught. However, their path is wrong, so the more they are taught, the worse it gets.
How should I put it? They have a kind of 'Boss' mentality.
They attribute everything to a certain person or group, for example, their goal is not to end the World Government that only collects 'protection money', but only to make the Celestial Dragons lose their privileges. They do not deny the rule of the World Government.
They rebelled, but not completely.
Most importantly, this group believed that bloodline was very important. Although they were commoners, they still believed that a good king should be chosen to show mercy to the people. Even if a country was overthrown, they still wanted to elect a nobleman as king. They only overthrew the king and did not care about the nobles. They believed that it would be over once the chief culprit was executed.
They were saved, but not completely.
This incredibly flawed strategy led Kuro, who was already feeling powerless, to give up entirely.
When he was young, he dreamed of changing the world order. He did some research on this and couldn't let go of the professional knowledge he learned from his hometown. This knowledge was meant to be used when he encountered such situations.
However, as the investigation deepened, Kuro realized that this professional knowledge was probably unlikely to be realized because it was too dangerous and the success rate was not high. After all, this ocean had great power.
Furthermore, with the revolutionary army still in this state, it's basically pointless.
Unable to help the world, he could only focus on his own well-being. Becoming a naval officer and finding a place to drift along with the world was actually quite good; at least he could ensure he could live a decent life.
Ideals... in this dangerous sea, you have to make sure you survive before you can have a chance to realize them.
But the longer he stayed there, the more he discovered the power and wonder of the ocean, and the unshakeable nature of the ruling class's bloodline. He rotted along with it.
Feudal capitalism has a knack for corruption and decadence; enjoying life for too long can be quite appealing.
But even after all these years, seeing a self-proclaimed revolutionary leader come here to shirk responsibility still makes him angry.
Is this what you call starting a revolution? Is this what you call rebelling?
That's it?
Are you kidding me?!
The shattered body transformed into a gentle breeze, reforming Dragon's form. He asked in bewilderment, "Our enemies are the Celestial Dragons, that's for sure. As for the class you mentioned, the Celestial Dragons are a different class from us, and that shouldn't exist. Why are you so angry?"
Kuro immediately started cursing: "Because I fucking think you're insulting me!"
Even if you insult me, I won't get angry.
You have insulted my faith, that's unacceptable!
I may be giving up, but that doesn't mean I've abandoned my beliefs.
Moreover, you didn't just insult people verbally; you directly broke their defenses through your actions.
Taking a couple of deep breaths, Kuro adjusted his posture and waved at Dragon: "Forget it, do whatever you want. We'll keep to ourselves. I'll fight my pirates, and you deal with your World Government. Let's just pretend we never met."
After thinking it over, he realized he had no right to say anything. The other person's approach was wrong, but at least they took action. As for the other person's decades-long dedication, he had long since given up on the idea.
"If you ask me about justice..."
He glanced at Dragon above and said, "I suggest you find a country to live in for a while, not a few years, but at least a few months. Don't reveal your identity, don't use force, just be a civilian, and then see how things go. Don't just look at the surface. You might find that not all the blame is borne by the Celestial Dragons."
"oh?"
Dragon's eyes flickered. "Is this the benchmark for your ambitions and dreams?"
Kuro rolled his eyes. "This is just a little advice I'm giving to someone else. Don't label everything with ambition or dreams. Isn't that exhausting?"
"If there's a chance..."
Dragon nodded vigorously and said, "Although I don't know what you want to do yet, and I can't rule out the possibility that you are an ambitious person, I will give it a try what you said."
That book still couldn't escape Kuro's ambition. At least Dragon knew that the author of the book had a great relationship with this man, and he also received advice from this insider.
Perhaps he could try looking for one.
Furthermore, what he just said is also very thought-provoking.
Aren't the enemies and the class the Celestial Dragons?
Does he think it's wrong?
However, Dragon didn't delve into this point, because this person was a Marine, and a Marine Admiral at that. Given his position, it was impossible for him to place the blame on a Celestial Dragon. Moreover, according to intelligence, one of the Celestial Dragons was his friend.
At least through the conversation, Dragon saw something.
This man's stance is friendly to their revolutionary army, which reduces the threat they pose.
After all, his bloodthirstiness is well-known in the world. Dragon once thought he was a character like Akainu, but now it seems that he is much better than he expected.
"I'll take my leave now; it seems you're starting to get into trouble..."
Dorrag said something, and then his body turned into the wind and disappeared.
Kuro watched as his aura vanished, his eyes widening as he pointed to the sky in disbelief. "Did this guy really come to chat with me? No, even if he had just said he was here to rescue his son, it would have been better than him just idly talking to me. Are the Revolutionary Army so idle? Aren't they supposed to be saving people all over the world? What? I'm in trouble? I even killed Linlin, how could I still have... um? This aura?"
Suddenly, he stopped speaking, turned his head to look at the huge thing lying behind him, and saw that the thing's breathing was becoming more and more even, and its eyelids and fingers were beginning to tremble.
"Kaido has moved. Enough said. Men, find me as many Seastone chains as you can and tie them to him tightly!" Kuro immediately ordered.
"I'll go get the men."
Without saying a word, Moore teleported to a group of navy men and led them back to the Golden Lion, which was still docked at the river mouth.
Their navy naturally also carries seastone, although they mostly buy it from Wano Country, but they can still use it.
Moore's abilities prevent him from touching seastone, but he can contact the Marines. With the Marines holding seastone chains, he can be teleported. Soon, he appeared here with a group of people holding seastone chains and tied the chains to Kaido.
As for you...
Kuro then looked at Yamato, who was now sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his spiked club to the side and his eyes closed, and said, "You're quite interesting. You didn't even run away just now."
Yamato opened his eyes and said, "I can sense your killing intent. If I make a move, you'll kill me, right? Rather than that, I'll just watch you. If you still want to chase Luffy and the others, I'll stop you even if it costs me my life!"
"Oh..."
Kuro pointed to the sea stone chain, "Alright, you two are reunited, take it with you."
