On the high seas, the most likely natural disaster is a tsunami; this is an undeniable truth.
The massive tsunami, which blotted out the sky and the moon, was like a pack of lions baring their teeth and claws, pouncing down and instantly drenching the islands that shimmered with white light.
Boom!!!
The island was washed down by the huge waves formed by the tsunami, and multiple whirlpools were formed in the ocean, seemingly stirring something. Under the white light shining on the island, a faint red color could be seen.
That was blood, blood from a large number of people being shredded!
Killing a thousand people in an instant is something that can only be achieved when swordsmanship reaches a certain level.
However, the ability to annihilate tens of thousands of people still depends on one's capabilities.
Ability is a miracle, it is the rule.
A tsunami like this, caused by human intervention, is a miracle!
This is what a person with superpowers is like.
The absolute strongest in the ocean!
"Done."
Kuro withdrew his hand, lit another cigar, and said, "That's it for today, let's go back."
The people on the boat were already completely silent.
These naval personnel included veterans from his G-3 era as well as newly recruited naval soldiers from headquarters.
However, regardless of the circumstances, Kuro rarely does this, while Kuro has never done it at all.
Upon seeing this tsunami, everyone froze, falling into complete silence; you could hear a pin drop.
"Although it's not the first time I've seen it..."
Kuro pushed up his glasses with a slight tremor, pursed his lips, and watched Kuro relight his cigar.
As expected of Mr. Kuro!
They're still so powerful that you can't even see their backs!
"That solves it?"
O'Cardi stared blankly at the scene before him, pointing a trembling finger at the archipelago ahead. "Gone? All gone?"
Lida said impatiently, "Otherwise what? Stop questioning me! I've already said Kuro is very strong. This is just in the South China Sea, how could he not handle it? Kuro has never failed!"
"Yeah..."
O. Kadi's tone turned low, then he smiled again, "As expected of Vice Admiral Jinni, you are indeed very powerful. However, the captain of the Longsword Pirates is not bad either. Why don't we take a look and see if there are any fish that have escaped our net?"
“Hmm, that makes sense. You’re not bad, Kuro. Move the ship forward and see if there are any survivors we can finish them off,” Kuro said.
"Yes, Mr. Kuro."
The Golden Lion continued forward and reached the Star Islands, sailing directly into the outermost island from its edge.
As they got closer to Kuro, they discovered that the soil of these islands was emitting a white light, or rather, that mist was swirling within the soil and reflecting the moonlight. Because of its high concentration, it created a luminous effect.
"Not bad..."
Kuro nodded approvingly, "It is indeed a wonder."
As for the island, there is nothing there.
There was nothing but damp soil that looked like it had been plowed by something.
The island wasn't small, but it was completely empty. People, houses, belongings, trees, and rocks—everything was washed away by the tsunami and swept into the sea. It would be strange if there was anything left.
As you get closer, you can see more clearly that there is bloodstains floating in the waters surrounding the island, and you can also vaguely see some bits of flesh mixed with building debris.
That was something that had been shattered by the vortex.
O. Kadi watched this scene quietly until the Golden Lion arrived at the center of the archipelago, the very central island.
"Indeed, they're all gone. Not a single one remains. The 'Longsword Pirates,' a crew that's been around for a hundred years, has had all its 'swords' destroyed."
When O'Cardy said this, his tone was filled with intense complexity.
"Yes, not a single one left. I already said the advantage is in our hands, so now..."
call!
Before Kuro could finish speaking, a gust of wind sounded from behind.
when!
Before the sound of the strong wind could fully resound, a crisp sound was heard.
Kuro glanced at him and saw Kro appear behind him, his hands crossed with Haki covering them, blocking a long sword in front of him.
“What do you want to do, O. Cardi!” Crow said coldly.
Before him, O. Kadi gripped a longsword with both hands, Armament Haki emanating from his hands and enveloping the sword.
"Can't you see that?"
As O. Kadi spoke calmly, he drew his longsword inward, sparking a burst of light as it rubbed against Kro's arm before sliding past him. He moved closer and kicked Kro in the stomach, sending him staggering backward. Using the force, he leaped upward, stepping into the air and landing on the central island after a few quick pushes.
"Of course, we must continue this unfinished battle between the Navy and the pirates!"
O. Kadi reached out and grabbed the temple of his glasses, tossed them aside, and casually ran his hand through his hair, instantly transforming it into a slicked-back style. His entire appearance, along with the change in his gaze, became sharp and sinister.
"I've already said, it's useless to destroy the sword blade if the 'hilt' doesn't perish. As long as the 'hilt' exists, the Longsword Pirates will be reborn one day. This is the mission of the 'hilt,' and it is also my mission as the 'hilt'!"
O. Kadeer gripped his longsword with one hand and swung it, looking up at the crew on the ship. "I, Robert Henry, captain of the Longsword Pirates, will continue the fight against you!"
Robert Henry...
Kuro raised an eyebrow and exhaled a puff of smoke. "Although I thought you were a bit strange when I first saw you, I didn't expect you to be this strange. A Marine spy, infiltrating a pirate crew for ten years and becoming its leader?"
"Is it strange? Yes... I am that strange."
O. Kadi shook his head and smiled, "I am so complicated. As a Marine and as a pirate, I cannot betray my duty. So all I can do is this."
"As a Marine, I prevented the Longsword Pirates from entering the Grand Line and annihilated them. As a pirate, as a captain, I must also fulfill my mission, which is to fight the Marines who ambushed us here! So, Golden Lion! Let's fight, let's finish this unfinished battle, a fair and square fight to the death!"
"So... I just can't understand it."
Kuro looked at him and said, "With your strength, you shouldn't be weak. With so many people around, you could apply to become a Shichibukai. That's a compromise, so why not do it?"
"I know, I know you, Golden Lion, have the power to command the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but the traditions of the Longsword Pirates cannot be abandoned!"
O. Kadi said in a deep voice, "If my men are unwilling, then they are unwilling. As the captain, I can only do what was elected. This is the tradition of the Longsword Pirates, and this is what I, as the captain, uphold!"
"A navy man upholding the traditions of pirates..."
Kuro exhaled a puff of smoke. "Understood. Then so be it."
This man has become so confused that he can no longer tell who he is.
Kuro understands this, but he just doesn't comprehend it.
But there are fools on the sea, and people like that are perfectly normal on this sea.
