Rayleigh has already returned, something Kuro already knew.
In the entire Sabaody Archipelago, his life force is the most intense.
However, as long as he doesn't cause trouble and obediently works as a coating craftsman, even if he occasionally steals something, Kuro won't care.
He and Rayleigh kept to themselves, after all, that old guy was incredibly annoying.
But he's been back for quite some time now, and it seems like nothing's happened. Shakky must have delivered the message, so Kuro has stopped worrying about him.
If he just stays put like this, when the Straw Hat crew goes to sea again, he can even go to headquarters to "report back" and pretend he didn't see them.
He loves doing things like getting rid of trouble.
Not long after, Kuro completed Kuro's instructions and walked into the office, saying, "Mr. Kuro, the contact with Mary Geoise is complete."
"Alright, let's go." Kuro nodded, stood up, and was about to walk out.
"Hey, Kuro, the cape."
Lida took the cloak from the clothes rack, jumped up, and draped it over Kuro.
With his cloak billowing, Kuro stepped outside, where people were already waiting.
“Mr. Kuro, I will definitely guard this place!” Wilbur shouted.
"You're making it sound like I'm about to die. There's no need for such formality. I'll be back in a few days."
Kuro rolled his eyes and said to Sentomaru beside him, "Sentomaru, the patrol is yours."
"Don't worry, I can do it." Sentomaru patted his chest loudly.
Wilbur and Sentomaru, one inside and one outside, perfectly form Sabaody's 'absolute defense'. Just as Sentomaru considers himself the man with invincible defense in the world, Clow isn't actually worried about him being in Sabaody.
Sentomaru is very strong, and Clow knows that.
His Haki level is at the third stage, 'External Release', just one step away from reaching 'Internal Destruction'. If he raises it any higher, he will be like Kuro, possessing the highest level of unified Haki.
The third stage of domineering level is almost invincible in the first half, and he also has the 'Pacifista'.
Sentomaru joined the Navy primarily to allow the pacifists to play a role.
Sabaody is the end point of the first half of the journey and a necessary route for pirates, making it a very effective place for pacifists to guard.
After all, the cost of this thing is equivalent to that of a large warship, and its overall combat power is roughly equivalent to a miniaturized version of a warship.
etc...
Isn't that just a ship boy?
"They're gone."
Kuro waved his hand, bid farewell to the remaining officers with Kuro and Lida, and led a group of Marines to the World Government's base in Sabaody Archipelago, where they took an elevator to Mary Geoise.
Besides Crow and Lida, he also needs a younger brother.
How can a person be without dignity?
Although he doesn't like fighting, as a veteran navy officer, he still needs to maintain a certain image.
Even someone as eccentric and idiotic as Garp always has a bunch of underlings with him wherever he goes, right?
Having underlings means you don't have to do things yourself, and it also gives you prestige.
Although he can fly, it's unnecessary if he's taking Cloda and his subordinates with him.
If everything has to be done by our own abilities, then what's the point of having warships?
There is a huge and long staircase leading from Sabaody to Mary Geoise, and at the top of the staircase is the gate to Mary Geoise.
"Open the door."
Kuro spoke irritably to the two soldiers in iron armor, holding long spears, who were guarding the gate.
He really didn't have much patience for these people.
"yes!"
The soldier, who had already received the message, saluted, picked up the Den Den Mushi and informed the inside. Then, with a creak, the heavy door opened, revealing the entire Mary Geoise.
Lida and Crowe had both been to this place before, and they tacitly avoided the stone path in the center of the avenue, instead taking the road on the side.
Nobody wants to leave that place.
Lida already knew this thanks to her Observation Haki, and after Kro's Observation Haki improved, he also knew what kind of evil was hidden beneath that automatically moving stone road.
"This kind of thing...it makes me uncomfortable every time I see it."
Kro looked at the stone-paved road, pushed up his glasses, and the veins on the back of his hand were faintly visible.
Ever since he rescued a dancer in Chambord, he has developed an instinctive aversion to slavery and the like.
"Keep quiet, this thing..."
Kuro picked up a cigar, touched his clothes, frowned, and then waved to a Marine.
The navy officer immediately understood, took out a match, lit it, and presented it to Kuro with both hands to light his cigar.
"This is not something you can control."
Kuro exhaled a puff of smoke, but his expression began to show some displeasure.
This was also one of the reasons he didn't want to go to Mary Geoise.
If you can't see him, you can bury your head in the sand like an ostrich; but if you do see him... well, you'll still feel annoyed no matter what.
"Um?"
As he walked along the road, he raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction of Pangu City.
There, there exists an aura of immense vitality.
"Green Bull? Wow, that's some serious vitality. I heard it hasn't eaten for three years..."
Kuro muttered, "I don't know how I've managed to survive? Can being handsome really put food on the table?"
He'd heard Green Bull was handsome, but that was just hearsay; he'd never actually seen him in person.
As new recruits to the Navy, the Navy Headquarters did not explicitly state that those who wanted to curry favor with Green Bull were not qualified, while those who were qualified to curry favor with Green Bull were disdainful.
Just like Brother Yixiao, although it is said that he has become an admiral, his own faction is not stable at all. The navy gathered around him is just doing their duty and there is no fixed faction.
Moreover, Green Bull is rumored to be very lazy, like a homebody. Since he himself is unwilling to meet people, naturally no one knows his true identity.
It's certain that someone knows, but Kuro himself lives in Sabaody Archipelago and has never met him, so Kuro doesn't know.
"Wait a minute... I'm this handsome, yet I still need to eat. Is there anyone in this world more handsome than me?"
Kuro raised an eyebrow, looking incredulous.
A group of people passed by Pangu City and were about to reach the other end of the entrance to go down the elevator when a voice suddenly sounded behind them.
"Hey, Navy! Navy!"
A somewhat idiotic voice sounded from behind. Kuro turned around and saw a fat, idiotic man with a head the size of a shovel handle swaying back and forth like a monkey, raising his hands and shouting loudly.
"It's Charlos..."
Kuro whispered something to Kuro.
"Ignore him."
Kuro turned his head, preparing to continue forward.
"Hey, Navy, handsome Navy! Hey there, you really handsome Navy guy, don't go!"
In an instant, Kuro stopped and turned around, asking, "Why did you call me?"
Charlos ran over, panting slightly, and grinned at Kuro, saying, "It really is you, Marine. Your advice last time was very good. Is the danger in Sabaody over now? I want to go down and capture slaves."
