Kro didn't understand. Even if he knew about O. Kadi's deeds, he wouldn't understand.
He used to be a pirate, but after being recruited by Kuro into the Marines, he devoted himself to being a Marine.
Even if we still think of Mr. Kuro as the 'captain', even if the 'captain' is no longer here, he will still be a Marine, he has already integrated into the Marine.
Kuro's only impression of this kind of person was that he no longer knew whether he was a Marine or a pirate. The confusion of his identity made him completely conflicted, but he was also betraying others.
As a pirate, he betrayed his own pirate crew.
As a member of the Navy, he betrayed his organization.
He was pleasing neither side, and he couldn't stand firm on either side. Even after attracting Mr. Kuro, he was still thinking about dueling with him.
Seeking death?
"You are not worthy of Mr. Kuro's help, you contradictory and foolish person!"
With a bar of his teeth, Kro's body gradually swelled, and his smooth black fur began to grow wildly, eventually transforming him into a werewolf over five meters tall.
"Come on, let the great Lord Kro deal with you!"
The sound was like several voices mixed together, making it sound very heavy.
At this moment, the moon in the sky broke free from the cover of the dark clouds, revealing its full shape, and the moonlight fell on the werewolf's fur, flowing with a silvery glow.
His body grew even larger under this influence.
"Awooo!!!"
Kro howled angrily at the sky, his wolfish howl causing the island to tremble slightly.
The fur, as if it had exploded open, with the sharpest points standing up like needles, added to the werewolf's ferocious appearance.
Thump!
Kro dropped to the ground on all fours with a loud bang, kicking up a cloud of dust.
At this moment, his body had reached a massive eight meters in length, his entire body was cracked and he looked extremely ferocious.
The true form of the Moon Wolf can only be revealed under the full moon.
This is his truly perfect pose!
This is meant to take down O.C. Di in one blow!
Meanwhile, O'Cardi's momentum was also rising.
He raised his longsword, the Armament Haki flashing in a spiral pattern across it. He pulled the sword back, assuming a swinging stance, and said, "Get ready!"
"oh?"
On deck, Kuro, witnessing this scene, remarked with slight surprise, "Could it really go this far? This domineering aura is only being displayed in the South China Sea..."
"Awooooo!"
On the deck, the dog that had followed them out was barking wildly. Its eyes were fixed on Kro's werewolf posture, and it seemed excited. It also lowered its limbs and assumed the same posture, as if it were imitating him.
Why would you envy a wolf?
Kuro patted the dog on the head, then shook his head and turned to walk towards the office.
"Kuro?" Lida looked over.
"I'm not watching anymore. There's no point in watching someone who has managed to stay upright all these years through self-hypnosis."
Kuro, puffing on his cigar, exhaled a puff of smoke. "This kind of person is already lost, only thinking about dying to end it all. Why bother looking at him? Kuro can handle him."
With such an overbearing and domineering presence, regardless of ability, he might be invincible in the South China Sea.
However, Kuro had been with him for so long, and Kuro was well aware of his strength.
Even in human-beast form, if the fight goes on, they'll win eventually.
Kro is now in his beast form under the full moon. If he loses to someone like that...
Then he'll have to go back to headquarters and start over as a lowly soldier.
Bang!!!
Soon, a loud crash came from behind. Kuro stopped, shook his head, and muttered, "Foolish..."
Then we entered the fortress.
On that island, Crow and O'Cardi stood apart, their backs to each other.
Kro swayed slightly, gradually shrinking into his beast-human form. He looked down at a wound on his chest and frowned slightly.
Click!
O'Cardi remained frozen in his sword-wielding stance. The longsword cracked with a sharp sound, its blade splitting into fragments that fell to the ground. He swayed slightly, then looked down at the gaping wound in his chest and gave a bitter laugh.
"Thus...the navy has won."
As he spoke, he collapsed and died.
Kuro transformed into human form, adjusted his glasses, and without even glancing at the corpses behind him, said calmly, "Yes, the Navy won. Because as a former pirate, I have no sympathy for pirates. The cruel sea doesn't offer two answers; if you don't firmly choose one path, you'll only be swallowed by the waves. This is what Mr. Kuro said; remember it well."
"Is this how we win?"
Standing in the fortress corridor, sensing the atmosphere outside, Lida shrugged and asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's this guy after?"
"Just for peace of mind."
As Kuro walked up the corridor, he said, "Trying to put your mind at ease by thinking you've done right by the Navy or the pirates, but in reality, you're just making things difficult for both of them. Lida, don't become such an awkward person in the future."
"No way!" Lida proudly tilted her head back and raised her little fist. "I'm very strong. I can definitely accomplish anything I set my mind to. Besides, you'll help me, right!"
"Don't make me call someone to bring you food anymore, make it yourself!"
Kuro rolled his eyes in exasperation, but then began to ponder.
The O.C. incident served as a wake-up call for him.
This kind of person is probably not an exception.
There are probably many cases like this.
There must be quite a few people in 'Sword' who have been undercover for so long that they can't tell whether they are marines or pirates.
If an emergency occurs, I'm afraid I'll end up like this O'Cardi, with my identity confused, and all I want to do is die.
That won't do.
Going undercover is inherently high-risk, posing not only a physical danger but also a significant psychological one.
Humans are emotional beings; even pirates have feelings.
Even the most wicked pirate crews can't be entirely riddled with bloodshed and betrayal; if that were the case, the pirate crews wouldn't stand a chance.
Once they spend a lot of time together, the undercover agents might develop feelings for the pirates and begin to feel a sense of belonging to them.
This is not good, after all, they were sent out by their navy, and they were originally passionate and enthusiastic people.
After all, who would go undercover without a burning passion?
But if we just leave them like this, wouldn't that just turn them all into the same kind of people as O.C.?
However, recalling them all wouldn't be appropriate, as it would render this secret team useless. Over the years, the Navy's intelligence network has relied on this, and even the CP sometimes can't be counted on, since it is directly under the World Government, not directly under their Navy.
They are parallel institutions.
We need to come up with a plan to keep them all in check and prevent any conflicts over their identities. Short-term undercover agents should be fine, but long-term undercover agents might be more inclined to do so.
"Let Kro come up later."
Kuro said to Lida, "He's the vice-captain. Let him think of a way to prevent this from happening again."
