That's an island.
As you continue downwards, the outline of the island grows larger and larger until it becomes clear.
"There's a town, huh?"
Kuro spotted a direction and was about to fly there when he suddenly froze. Below him was a huge island that looked very familiar.
The island was bare, as if it had only recently formed, and it resembled a majestic lion's head.
"This thing..."
Kuro opened his eyes, glanced to the side, memorized the direction of the island with the town, and then rushed down.
Bang!
When he was almost touching the sea surface, he stopped abruptly, and the force of his movement sent a shockwave of water rolling outwards.
Kuro stopped, stroking his chin as he surveyed the enormous lion-headed island.
It was huge; Kuro, on top of it, looked like a tiny dot. Above the lion's head, there was a hole, as if something was breaking through it.
None of that is the key point. The key point is that he reacts to this thing.
"ah!"
Kuro punched his left fist into his right palm, then remembered: "Isn't this the 'Planetary Devastation' I used to trap Kaido? So it was here all along."
As he spoke, he clenched his fingers, preparing to raise the lion's head.
Perfect timing! He was short of inventory, and here comes a big one.
"roar..."
Just then, a muffled roar suddenly came from the other end of the lion's head.
Kuro turned his head and saw a lion with wings and thick fur rushing towards him.
The lion opened its massive jaws, its sharp fangs pointing directly at Kuro, and a foul stench emanated from its mouth.
The Grand Line, especially this New World, is teeming with monsters.
Kuro closed his eyes slightly, not even glancing at the giant lion that was attacking him, and said indifferently, "It's a bit cold, can I borrow your fur?"
"rua?"
Animals' unique alertness caused the lion to pause suddenly as it bit down, instinctively spreading its wings to try and run away.
brush!
Just as it spread its wings, a flash of light appeared, striking the lion from below and ripping it open. At the same time, Kuro opened his hand and pulled hard on the edge of the cut, tearing the lion's entire pelt open.
Snap!
He grabbed the fur and gave it a shake, causing the attached flesh and fascia to fly off in an instant, revealing a shiny pelt in Kuro's hand.
"Hmm... this much is enough."
Kuro held the knife in his other hand and slashed at the fur, splitting it in two. He then wrapped the severed fur around his body.
A fur coat was wrapped around him. The coat was long, with the hem reaching his knees. It split in the middle, and the chest area was also open, exposing his chest. The feathers on both shoulders formed shoulder pads.
His clothes were exactly the same as what he wore when he was a second lieutenant.
Click.
Kuro sheathed Autumn Water, not even glancing at the lion lying on the surface of the lion's head, trembling from being skinned, and nodded, saying, "Hmm, that's much better."
