"nice?"
Kuro gasped. "Where did you get that tattoo? And it even has a number on it. You haven't joined some evil organization, have you?"
He couldn't help but have doubts, because the thing looked somewhat familiar to him.
The spider was one thing, but it even had a number, which directly triggered memories that Kuro had stored in his mind for over twenty years.
"You didn't join some theft organization, did you? What's worth stealing, One Piece?" Kuro teased.
Kuzan raised an eyebrow, but before he could speak, Kuro chuckled and said, "Just kidding, but this tattoo is pretty creepy. I don't feel comfortable looking at it."
"Oh my, there are times when you're not feeling well."
Kuzan stood up, his severed leg quickly freezing into an ice leg. He then picked up a bathrobe hanging on the rack and covered his body, as well as the tattoo on his shoulder.
Then he walked over to the side, picked up a glass of milk from the shelf, and gulped it down.
He let out a long exhale and said to Kuro, "After a bath, a glass of milk is the most comforting thing. Would you like one?"
"Drink it yourself, and watch your territory."
Kuro waved his hand, ignoring him, and carried the fruit out of the hot spring. Marines were already waiting at the door, and when they saw him come out, they presented him with two pointers: one pointing to headquarters and the other pointing to Wano Country.
The World Government certainly had information about this place; otherwise, the old man wouldn't have come here back then, and CP0 wouldn't have been able to trade here.
With a flick of his finger, two permanent pointers floated around him, flew into the sky with his body, and shot into the distance, disappearing like shooting stars.
Kuzan had just picked up the second bottle of milk when he sensed something, quickly finished it, shook his head, and sighed, "Just as Lowe said, they're hiding something..."
"Boom boom boom..."
Suddenly, the sound of a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) rang from the side where his clothes were hanging.
Kuzan walked over and rummaged through his clothes. First, he pulled out a white Den Den Mushi, then put it down. Next, he pulled out a black one and put it down as well.
"This is it."
He took out a red Den Den Mushi (snail phone), picked up the receiver, and took it.
The Den Den Mushi's appearance changed, transforming into a bespectacled creature that seemed quite intelligent.
"Moshi moshi, is this number 6? I'm number 1..."
"Oh, it's you!" Kuzan said, scratching his head in surprise.
"Ara la?"
Kuro, on the other end of the phone, was taken aback. Looking at the lazy appearance of the Den Den Mushi and hearing its familiar tone, his pupils contracted, and he subconsciously asked, "Kuzan?"
“Ara, I thought you knew me,” Kuzan said.
Kro exclaimed in shock, "How was I supposed to know?! What do you mean? Number 6 is you...!"
Am I the strange one?
"That's very strange! Who let you in? Cass and Wilbur shouldn't know anything about this either!"
"Oh dear, let me think... David, the king of Dressrosa, invited me in."
"David?!"
Kro paused for a moment, then let out a long sigh, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said, "Anyway, let's have a meeting first. I was originally thinking if you were free for a conference call, but it seems you can come directly. The location is [Flower Street]."
"Perfect timing, I'd also like to hear the details. See you later."
Kuzan hung up the phone, glanced at the Den Den Mushi, thought for a moment, shook his head and laughed, "It's really amazing."
He is number 6, number 6 of the Red Spider Squad, but he is a recent addition to the squad.
He had originally only gone to Dressrosa to investigate, since Dressrosa was world-famous, and the newly elected king had conquered everywhere, his power unmatched for a time.
What puzzled Kuzan the most was why this militaristic country seemed to be doing quite well.
With this question in mind, Kuzan went to Dressrosa.
He also obtained the book "The Faith of Justice," which was practically a must-have for everyone in Dressrosa. Well, the book's message was good, but the power of the book alone wasn't enough. However, if the people acted according to the book's content, then the book's power would be terrifying.
Even so, it can only be said that Dressrosa is a powerful nation, and its type of justice is similar to that of the Navy.
It wasn't until he went to sea again and met David, who invited him aboard and showed him the original copy of "The Sayings of Justice" and someone's draft, that Kuzan had an epiphany.
So he joined the Crimson Spiders.
This organization has few members, and few people knew their specific identities before this meeting. Apart from David being number 2, Kuzan knew nothing about the others.
However, it's easy to guess that since it's based on Kuro, it must be someone connected to him.
Now that I look at it, it's true...
"Let's go there first and talk about it later."
Kuzan changed his clothes and set off from the hot spring resort towards the [flower market].
Although this place has this name, it has absolutely nothing to do with the gambling and drug den that Moore loves. This is a place to eat, drink tea, and enjoy flowers. The whole street is filled with exotic flowers, and enjoying the flowers here is a unique experience.
After arriving at the location, Kuzan went straight to a private room on the top floor. He opened the sliding door and saw a huge round table with three people already sitting on it, along with two Den Den Mushi.
"Hey, we meet again," Kuzan greeted jokingly.
Kro pushed up his glasses, disbelief still lingering in his eyes: "It really is you, Kuzan."
"Mr. Kuzan!"
On the other side of the seat, Cass stood up and said excitedly, "With your joining us, Mr. Kuro's career has taken a big step forward! I am Cass, and also the number 3 of the Crimson Spider Gang!"
“I am also Wilbur, number 4 of the Red Spiders!” Wilbur said.
"Ara..."
Kuzan thought for a moment and then smiled, "Should I say that I am Kuzan, number 6 of the Crimson Spiders?"
"Come and have a seat. In any case, welcome to the team, Kuzan," Kro said.
Kuzan shrugged, sat down at the round table, and looked at the two red Den Den Mushi next to him. One was marked with '2' and the other with '5' on its back, indicating that they were currently connected.
"Hey, are you kidding me? Kuzan? Aokiji?"
Den Den Mushi #5 looked surprised. "He came in too? This is the first time I've heard of that."
“I invited him. He’s looking for justice, and we happen to have the justice he needs here,” Den Den Mushi #2 said.
Kuzan looked at Den Den Mushi #5, "Who are you?"
Number 2 knew it was David, but Number 5 was a mystery.
"I am Lowe, King of the Insect Kingdom," Den Den Mushi No. 5 announced.
Kuzan suddenly realized, "Oh, it's you... the beluga whale's brother."
Cass looked around at everyone and said, "Let's talk about this later. Let's start the meeting, the first meeting of the Crimson Spider Clan. Begin."
