"stop!"
Kuro instantly became alert and looked at Tsuru, "Grandma Tsuru, what newspaper are you advertising?!"
"Don't worry, we won't say you did it. That's an internal Navy calculation. To the outside world, we just refer to it as the Navy. Unless we want to use it as a model for propaganda, like Garp, we won't release the specifics to the outside world," Tsuru said with a smile.
This relieved Kuro, who was still a bit scared after being tricked by Sakazuki.
That was a public execution in front of the entire navy.
Although it was an internal announcement, which internal announcement was as exaggerated as his?
Kakei and Gion are quite low-key, aren't they?
What Tsuru said is the normal system that a navy should have. Or rather, after Zephyr's family was killed, most navy personnel, apart from using code names, try to calculate their credit internally, while in the outside world, they only use code names or are uniformly referred to as the navy, unless there is a real need.
The port incident that Koby and Law orchestrated together was used as a typical example.
But for Kuro, it's too early for Koby to bear this fame.
"You little rascal, you always overthink things."
Tsuru said, "Of course we know what to do. He's one of the Four Emperors, after all. You kill Jack..."
"What Jack? There's no Jack here! Don't think you can just say whatever you want just because you're an old man. I didn't do anything. I don't know who Jack is," Kuro immediately said.
"Alright, alright, anyway, that's how it is." He laughed helplessly.
How could I possibly report the killing of Jack to Kuro alone? That wouldn't boost Kuro's reputation; it would harm him.
Kuro's fame doesn't need a mere Three Disasters to boost it.
On the contrary, if the details are published in the newspaper, it will only make Kaido want to keep an eye on him.
Kuro thought the same thing; if this happened again, Kaido might find a chance to kill his way to G-3.
This guy is quite smart. He's not afraid of thieves stealing from him, but he's afraid of thieves eyeing him. If he keeps thinking about this, will he still have his G-3?
But it wouldn't do to make him release Jack because of this...
Who told him to be so easily killed?
If he could withstand a little bit of the attack and resist the Sea Rolling Earthly Treasure without dying, wouldn't he have survived?
Jack was gone, and the pirate ship was gone too. Of course, there was no need to count any pirate casualties. The group dispersed and returned to their respective positions.
Kuro returned from the deck to the interior of the fortress on the Golden Lion. As soon as he entered the corridor, he saw Lida standing at the door with a wronged look on her face.
“Kuro…”
"What's wrong?"
Kuro raised an eyebrow. "Who bullied you?"
However, the next moment, he saw that Lida was holding something familiar.
A cantaloupe-shaped fruit with spiral patterns...
"I almost ate it," she said resentfully. "My snacks are all gone again."
