Although he hasn't been with the navy for long, he has already orchestrated several attacks and escaped from their clutches.
This ship, capable of sinking underwater, was built using his method and is extremely useful.
The first mate went up for a look and was stunned. In the observation scope, the huge golden ship was surrounded by a cluster of fortresses, like an ancient city. Behind the fortresses was a statue that looked like the same as the prow of the ship, resembling a dragon or a lion, swallowing clouds and spitting out mist.
"That, that is..."
The first mate instinctively widened his eyes and exclaimed in surprise:
"Captain, you can't launch torpedoes! That's...that's the Gold Ship!"
"A gold ship? Of course I know it's a gold ship." The captain was puzzled.
"No, that's the 'Cursed Golden Ship,' a golden ship that has never seen anyone survive!"
The first mate exclaimed in horror, "The gold there is made from the lives of pirates! It's not gold; it's the vengeful spirits of the navy killed by the pirates, tempting us. If we can't resist the temptation, people will die!"
In Paradise, this legend has taken root in everyone's hearts. Every pirate knows that there is a ship sailing on the sea that is made entirely of gold. But that gold is not gold; it is the cursed vengeful spirit of the Navy. Anyone blinded by greed who goes there will surely die!
I've never heard of anyone getting gold there.
The first mate, however, was better informed, as he was practically a firsthand witness.
When the pirates decided to form an alliance to challenge the cursed golden ship, he was a member of one of the ships, but he missed the boat because he drank too much and was left on the island where he stayed.
He was very regretful at the time, believing that he had missed a great opportunity to make a fortune.
However, he never heard from those pirates again.
News of the gold ship continues to circulate on the high seas.
From then on, he was filled with fear of the golden ship, and now that he had seen the real thing, he was even more terrified.
"Hahaha, First Mate, this is the New World, such a thing doesn't exist here. Even if it did, we pirates of the New World aren't afraid of it!"
The captain laughed heartily: "If we were afraid, we would have gone back to Paradise long ago. Being able to survive here, we have nothing to fear!"
He never expected that this usually quick-witted first mate would have such a side.
He'd made up his mind; after seizing the ship, he was going to give the first mate a good dressing down.
Whoosh whoosh!
Several torpedoes were launched from the submarine, heading straight for the hull of the gold ship that had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Let's blow a few holes first to force them to stop sailing!
At that moment, aboard the Golden Lion, Kuro suddenly frowned, a red dot flashing in his eyes. Staring at the sea, he called out, "Mr. Kuro..."
"ah..."
Kuro turned his head, staring at the sea in the same way, and hooked his finger upwards.
A clump of water rose to the surface of the sea, and within that clump of water were several torpedoes.
"torpedo?"
Kuro paused for a moment, then looked at the sea, his eyes narrowing slightly. "This is interesting. There are ships like this..."
His Observation Haki spread out and instantly spotted the submarine-like pirate ship lurking on the seabed.
"What are you trying to do with me in the water?"
He clenched his fist, and a whirlpool suddenly appeared in the sea ahead. As it spun rapidly, several clumps of iron filings, mixed with tattered pirate flags, emerged from the edges of the whirlpool before sinking into its center and disappearing.
He didn't even have time to look at it.
It's not surprising that pirates have such ships, Kuro knew that, but what kind of abilities do these pirates, who lurk on the seabed and act like rats in the gutter, have?
On the high seas, no pirate ship can challenge him.
Even islands won't do!
Whoosh!
The water droplets in the air scattered, and several torpedoes also fell into the sea.
"Alright, let's move on."
Kuro spoke casually, as if he had just brushed away some dust.
