Historical truths and such, the blank century and such.
Kuro was not interested.
What good is knowing this thing?
Knowing this will change the world?
That's utter nonsense.
However, things don't seem to be as bad as Kuro thinks.
The World Government has not disclosed this information, nor has the Navy pursued it. Moreover, according to intelligence, Kuzan and Blackbeard are in a cooperative relationship; he simply doesn't know what Blackbeard is up to.
"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me. Go make a scene in the New World, all of you go make a scene in the New World, the farther away from me the better."
Kuro put down the newspaper, crossed his legs, turned to look at the colorful bubbles rising outside the window, and closed his eyes contentedly.
Although this place is much more 'lively' than Fima Island, it's still not bad that we can settle down here.
People should be content.
...
New headquarters.
The new headquarters building was almost finished, and the number of supports on the huge building was decreasing, but recently, the number has suddenly increased again.
Because the current Fleet Admiral Sakazuki burned down his office in a fit of rage, which also affected the surrounding area, a section of this massive building now needs to be renovated.
"That bastard Kuzan!"
Every time he saw the newspaper, Sakassky would get furious.
Even now, he still feels angry.
He actually cooperated with the Blackbeard Pirates!
Regardless of the purpose, cooperating with pirates is something he cannot tolerate.
"Oh~ how scary."
On the other side, Kizaru, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, slowly put down his teacup and said, "Let's put the Kuzan matter aside for now. Wald is dead. Kuro's report says that Mihawk did it. We haven't sent out this report yet. Should we revise it?"
"Wald?"
Sakazuki looked at Kizaru and said, "Mihawk is a Shichibukai. Although the World Government said it recruited the Shichibukai, this matter cannot be completed by the Shichibukai alone. Did Kuro's report only mention Mihawk? What about himself?"
Not a word was mentioned.
Kizaru shook his head, pouted, and said, "I don't know if it's true or false, but I think it's worth a try."
"I understand what you mean."
Sakazuki nodded: "That's right. As the base chief of Sabaody Archipelago, the World Government wouldn't want to see the Seven Warlords of the Sea perform like this in the past. So let's change the report. Anyway, that kid has killed a lot of the older generation, so one more won't make a difference."
Some Kuro don't admit it, some Kuro do, but in any case, he's killed quite a few old men.
Golden Lion, Redfield, the Goddess of the Insect Kingdom, and Bondi Wald—these four pirates were all figures who roamed the seas in the old era.
Two of them were also crew members of Lox.
One more or one less makes no difference.
Sakazuki clenched his fist, and a crimson tinge appeared on it.
"That brat Kuro should have had a 'codename' a long time ago!"
"Oh~ a substitute?"
Kizaru thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "I agree. There's no need to rush about being pinned down in Sabaody, but as for 'Codename,' he has indeed reached that point."
The navy shouldn't only have 'three admirals'; having 'three candidates' would also be acceptable.
There are currently only two substitutes; one more would be enough to fill the gap between the three generals.
“Then draft a report… no, I will personally go to Mary Geoise to discuss this with the Five Elders.”
As he spoke, Sakazuki stood up. With his personality, he always did what he said he would do without waiting.
"Then I'll think of a codename for Kuro. What should I call him... Golden Lion?" Kizaru stroked his chin, pondering.
"Let me explain."
Suddenly, a snow-white head peeked out from the doorway.
That's a Warring States period head.
"Oh~ Sengoku-san."
Kizaru pouted, "What good suggestions do you have?"
"Hahaha, Borsalino, aren't you being too hasty? Whether the World Government will agree is another matter... although I think they probably will."
Warring States walked in with a hearty smile and said, "As for the color, gold is fine, but for the code name and image, how about 'Lion'?"
"lion?"
Kizaru tilted his head: "Oh...that's quite a vivid description."
“Yes, a sheep’s head, a dragon’s body, and it also looks like a lion, a mythical beast. It fits that brat quite well,” Sengoku said.
The Ni is a legendary mythical beast that breathes clouds and mist, enjoys smoke and sitting, and generally does not move.
This creature looks exactly like Kuro.
Moreover, the naming of this generation of naval personnel is quite particular.
The original three admirals, Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji, were dog, monkey, and rooster, respectively.
Two general candidates, Momousagi and Chabuton. (They are rabbit and pig.)
The two new generals are Fujitora and Green Bull. (The characters are Tiger and Bull.)
It is included in the ancient twelve earthly branches.
The name Kuro is also derived from the character 'sheep' in the twelve Earthly Branches.
This naming method means...
Kizaru asked in surprise, "Does Sengoku-san also think highly of Clow? Do you believe he will become an admiral?"
"Hahaha, don't you know best, Borsalino?"
Zhan Guo laughed loudly, "When you retire, he'll be the one to take your place."
Kizaru chuckled, neither confirming nor denying Sengoku's words, and said, "'Golden Lion'? It sounds pretty good. I wonder if Clow will like it. He came to me last time to complain about Little Lida's codename."
"Oh? You mean that 'White Butterfly'? That's not what she's called on the high seas. Most pirates prefer to call her 'White Whale'."
Zhan Guo said confidently, "Don't worry, he'll definitely like the name I chose!"
...
Achoo!
Chambord.
Kuro sneezed for no apparent reason.
He rubbed his nose and looked out the window. "Who the hell is thinking about me? Is it a beautiful woman?"
Kro, standing to the side, smirked.
He may not know about the beautiful woman, but there must be many people on the high seas who are thinking of you.
Yes, it's the kind of insult that's directed at you.
“Mr. Kuro, it seems Marshal Sakazuki has gone to Mary Geoise,” Kuro said.
"Huh? What does his going to Mary Geoise have to do with me? Isn't it normal for a marshal to go to Mary Geoise and argue with those five old men?"
Kuro took out a cigar and put it in his mouth, saying, "Being a marshal or admiral is just too much of a hassle. You have to be responsible to the Navy below and report to Mary Geoise above. That old man Garp does a great job. He hasn't been promoted, so he doesn't have that problem."
"Speaking of which..."
He exhaled a puff of smoke and pondered, "That idiot Kuzan seems to have followed Garp before. No wonder he can cooperate with pirates. It's the same lineage. In other words, he thinks that bastard Teach can become the Pirate King?"
