Chapter 248
What About My Huge Ship?
After dealing with Poropa, Kuro flew back. As soon as he landed, the Second Lieutenant came over with a Den Den Mushi.
“Lieutenant Colonel, it’s… it’s the Marshal.”
“Huh? Mr. Sengoku?”
As soon as Kuro finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi roared.
“Kuro!! You brat, what did you do?!”
Kuro tilted his head and picked his ear with his fingers. “What do you mean what did I do? Mr. Sengoku, you are about to retire. Can you lower your voice? Image, image, do you know?”
“Stop pretending with me!” The other side continued to roar.
“Garlic? Where is the garlic? I want to eat garlic bread.” Leda raised her eyebrows and said.
Sengoku: “…”
“What did you do on Moe Island!”
“Nothing.”
Kuro pretended to say, “It’s just a friendly greeting with the local knight. He was a little excited. He probably saw that I was too handsome and ran around excitedly. He drilled a tunnel and was crushed by the mountain and then was swept away by the tsunami.”
“It’s the Grand Line, you know. Landslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and the sudden freezing of the sea. It’s normal for lasers to flash out of nowhere.”
“For this, I feel a moment of silence. That is a very good person, but a little short. Do you know, Mr. Sengoku, that is really short, short and fat, like an egg, I tell you…”
“Enough! Kuro! I’m not here to listen to your excuses! The government called me, do you understand what this means!”
“I’m about to retire and I still have to worry about the trouble caused by you disobedient Marines. You are exactly the same as Polusalino. Can’t you save me some trouble! Bonaparte Poropa has a deal with the government and is also involved with Tenryubito. If you kill him, it will be difficult for us to explain in front of the government!”
“In short, settle the matter of Moe Island for me. I don’t want to hear the government or people from anywhere coming to the headquarters to complain again! And…”
“Maximose? Maximose? It’s so strange, the signal is not good. Mr. Sengoku, I will hang up first, talk again when I have time.”
Kuro hung up the phone.
“Lieutenant Colonel, is this…” The Second Lieutenant raised the Den Den Mushi in embarrassment. He didn’t know whether to take it or not.
“Shut up, I have a decision. Now call the Marines on the ship to control downtown!”
“Yes!”
The ensign saluted and quickly made a call.
“What are you doing, Kuro?” Leda asked.
“What are you doing? Do pirates.”
Kuro sneered. “The people who control this place are finished. Those pirates are not blind. It is impossible for them to see the movement in Uptown. Once they find that there is a problem with the armed forces here, how can they not plunder here?”
“Of course I have to wrap up what I did. Didn’t you hear Sengoku? I’ll make the decision. Such a good place, holding two sea routes and dozens of sea routes, is equivalent to a small wave. It’s too wasteful not to be a Marine base.”
He didn’t like Polopa’s style of doing things. He had to deal with the aftermath himself. The way to deal with the aftermath was especially simple.
Aren’t they afraid of pirates and war?
It might as well be a Marine base.
Kuro slapped his five fingers on the ground, and with a loud bang, the ruined fortresses in the upper city rose together, flew into the sky, and began to march towards the lower city.
… .
“Four-Hat” Petro is a pirate who has been out for several years. He was born in East Blue. Back then, he was lucky enough to enter the Grand Line with a bounty of millions of berries. Through his efforts in the past few years, he became a ‘Great Pirate’ with a bounty of 30 million berries.
In the sea with an average bounty of three million, his current bounty made him very proud.
East Blue didn’t only produce some garbage, but also elite pirates like him!
He survived until now not by force but by his own wisdom and sharp intuition.
For example, the strange noise in Uptown had attracted his attention.
“Captain, look, the guards at the entrance of those shops seem to have put down their weapons.”
His subordinate pointed at the guards holding spears outside and asked curiously.
As a neutral zone, the reason why pirates don’t attack is that the force here is too strong. Those who are silent and hold weapons have the combat power of elite soldiers and there are many of them.
Attacking this place was a thankless task.
But if there is a chance, no one is willing to let go of this rich place.
“I saw it…”
Petro narrowed his eyes. He had also noticed this scene, and when he thought about the movement in Uptown and the group of Marines that had appeared earlier, he knew that they were not to be trifled with…
It was very likely that the local ruler had been arrested by the Marines.
He knew that Shorty often bought some slaves and captured some innocent people. Those people became the standing spearmen in this town. He had seen some faces before.
“This is an opportunity!”
“Gather our men and take this town!” said Petro.
“Captain?! This is Moe Island. If we rob this place, we will be hunted down by our peers and we will not be able to come here to resupply in the future.” One of his men said in panic.
“We are pirates! Can pirates still be loved by their peers?!”
Petro glared at him. “Pirates should want treasures and risk their lives when they see them. Otherwise, how can they be called pirates! This place has not been violated by anyone for several years. Let’s be the first and let the reputation of the ‘Four Horn Hat Pirates’ resound in the sea!”
“Yes, I understand!”
The subordinate was stunned for a moment and then nodded heavily. “I will…”
Before he could finish speaking, he turned around and ran towards the port. His figure was a little messy.
Petro shook his head. This subordinate is good in every way, but he is impatient.
At this time, he should be neither too fast nor too slow, lest other pirates discover the clues and run so impatiently. Those who don’t know would think that he is being chased by something.
“That’s why I’m the Captain, and you’re just a subordinate. You have to be like me. You have to keep everything in your heart and don’t show it on your face. There’s an old saying in West Blue: Those who are shocked in their hearts can face a calm lake and worship a navy general.”
Petro smiled faintly and turned to look at the town. “I will be the first to rob this place, rob… What a joke!!!”
He ran away. His speed was faster than his subordinates and he quickly overtook his subordinates. He wished that both his hands were on the ground.
In the sky, a large number of fortress clouds flew over from Uptown like dark clouds.
If that thing smashed down, what kind of bearing would it have? It would have long become meat paste!
Damn it, his subordinates didn’t inform him first. When they boarded the ship, he would exercise the rules of pirates!
Petro quickly arrived at the port and was about to board the ship when he looked at the turbulent sea in the port and froze.
The sea was clean.
The bustling scene of a large number of ships converging at the port was long gone. Apart from seawater, there was still seawater.
“Where is my ship!”
He exclaimed, “Where is my big ship? Where are my men? Where did they go?!”
Even if he escaped, he should be able to see it at this time, but there is no sign of the ship.
The sea hit a wave, and on the sea in front of him, a iconic four-cornered hat sculpture floated over with a few pieces of the ship.
“So it’s been sunk…”
Petro touched his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. Then his eyes widened, his mouth opened and his eyes popped out.
“My ship has been sunk!!!”
