Bang!
The flying boulder landed on the beach, and shortly after it hit the ground, it exploded, sending fragments of rock into the sea and splashing water.
"Hernando!!"
Zefa's enraged figure appeared on the beach, about to run towards the cave, when he suddenly paused.
This beach was a campsite, the campfire was still burning, but it was already a mess.
The pirates all lay nearby, with bloody holes between their eyebrows or in their hearts, their mouths agape and their eyes wide open, seemingly unable to believe they were going to die.
"They're all dead, that brat Kuro..."
Zefa gradually calmed down, looked at the dead people, and fell silent.
The only person who could have been enveloped by the suddenly lifted stone wall was Lucilfer Kuro, who ate the Float-Float Fruit.
"Old man Zefa."
Kuro's voice rose from above and descended, "We're a bit lucky; the pirates harassing my base are gone."
“Kuro, didn’t I already tell you? No one needs to come along,” Zephyr said, glancing at him.
Kuro took out a cigar, lit it, and put it in his mouth, saying:
"I'm not your subordinate. As the commander of Pegasus Island base, even though I've only just taken office, I still have to fulfill my duties. After all, I'm also a member of the Navy."
"Why would you do this?" Zefa asked. "Hernando is my disciple. I have the ability to deal with him. Or are you underestimating me, a former general?"
"I wouldn't dare, I just feel..."
Kuro looked directly at him and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. "A hero can choose not to kill."
"Kuro the brat..."
Zefa fell silent again. After a while, he turned and walked out. "If it's resolved, let's go. I'm tired and need to go back and rest."
He walked forward, then paused. "I need your help with something. Please don't make a fuss about this."
Keep quiet?
That's great news!
Kuro was still thinking about how to prevent Zephyr from reporting him... no, from mentioning his achievements. If Zephyr didn't make a fuss, it would be exactly what he wanted.
"Don't worry, I used to be known as the Navy Prince in the East Blue for being a man of his word and never lying. I won't talk about something like this." Kuro gave a thumbs up.
That's right. Kuro guarantees this with his integrity. What he says goes. If he says he'll kill someone today, he won't wait until tomorrow.
Thanks.
A very soft voice came from Zephyr's back.
Kuro understood that the thanks were not only for keeping quiet, but more importantly, for not letting Zeffa kill Hernando.
Zephyr is not a hero, but a man who is pursuing the path of heroism. He is also the one who walks at the forefront of this path, so those behind him will consider him a hero.
In Kuro's eyes, a hero is one who can endure what others cannot.
Zefa is a hero, and if someone is a hero, you should help them if you can, unless they want to change themselves.
After all, he had just taught me, and he had taught the old man a long time ago.
"Well then, let's clean up the trash."
Kuro slammed his palm on the ground.
Rumble...
With a commotion, the seawater churned and rolled, and the entire island flipped over in the water, as if it were being washed. After being stirred several times, it rose up and was sent into the sky.
Island collection +1.
Having done all this, Kuro nodded in satisfaction, flew forward, and landed on the warship ahead.
At this moment, Zephyr had just boarded the warship via a small boat. He glanced at Kuro and said, "Ability users, huh? That's really convenient."
“Old man, if you’re envious, that’s fine too. With your skills, you should be able to get it, right?” Kuro said.
"I don't need to."
Zephyr glanced at his mechanical arm. "This thing will let me deal with you ability users."
The premise is that you can find it.
Kuro inwardly scoffed.
Who the hell would hit you for no reason? You old man are a martial arts expert, you're both persistent and resilient.
ha?
What will happen in the future?
What does what happens in the future have to do with him? He's not going to the new world anyway, so out of sight, out of mind.
The warships returned to Pegasus Town, and after a short rest, the navy went to Kuro's rest area to clear out the pirates on the island.
Lida stayed in town to prevent any accidents.
When Kuro returned, Lida had a miserable little face, carrying her small backpack and sighing.
Seeing this, Kuro's heart skipped a beat. He rushed over in two steps and said, "You're not serious, is there something wrong with your bag again?"
He took down two Devil Fruit users, and this time it's so weird, another Devil Fruit has appeared in his bag?
Lida nodded, looking aggrieved, and said, "Those people didn't have any food, so I shared the snacks in my bag with the children. Being hungry isn't pleasant, but I'm out of snacks..."
Kuro breathed a sigh of relief at this. He tapped Lida on the head and said, "It's just that we don't have any snacks. Don't act like you've gotten a Devil Fruit!"
This isn't a good thing either. Although Kuro isn't particularly afraid, what if someone with ulterior motives notices this thing and sets their sights on Lida's backpack?
Although he didn't believe in metaphysics, he didn't want others to have designs on him; that would be too much trouble.
"But if we don't have any snacks, I'll be hungry..." Lida pouted.
"Hungry? Little girl, it's alright, I have plenty of food on my boat. Hey, go get something for this little girl from the boat."
Zephyr spoke to the remaining navy personnel.
"yes!"
The sailor gave a straight salute and dashed off to the warship.
