Chapter 685
My Wish Is World Peace
A day later, several Battleships arrived at the port.
In the gap of Dressrosa, where a piece of land had been cut off, the Battleship docked and some Marines were standing there and saluted.
The ship lowered the ladder and a few people came down from it.
“Ah… we’re finally here.”
Sengoku was wearing a flowery shirt and big pants, holding a bag of snacks in his hand, eating and laughing.
“Shut up. You’re so noisy. You were talking all the way. Let’s go.”
Crane, in front of him, glanced at him and reached the Marine station tent under the Marine salute.
Yixiao was sitting on a wooden box with a portable table in front of him, eating buckwheat noodles.
“Oh! Yixiao, I have heard it all. You and Kuro beat Charlotte Lingling back.” Sengoku said with a smile.
Laughing picked up the buckwheat noodles with his chopsticks and took a bite. “It’s all thanks to Brother Kuro.”
Crane said, “It’s a pity that we couldn’t catch Straw Hat and Law, but you can’t be blamed. After all, you were fighting Big Mom at that time. Fujitora, where is Kuro?”
“Outside Doflamingo’s tent,” Yi Xiao said.
Crane nodded. “I heard that the king of Dressrosa has changed?”
“I’m not sure about this kind of thing. The one who made the decision is Brother Kuro.”
One Smile chewed as he said, “However, it seems that he chose a good king. That David has the heart of a knight.”
“Knights…”
Crane nodded and did not say anything else as he walked towards Doflamingo.
Outside a tent in front, the same convenient table was placed. Kuro, Leda, and Moore sat around the table in wooden boxes, also eating buckwheat noodles.
“Not bad, this taste, I’ll ask the stork to return later.”
Kuro held the cup in his left hand and picked up the chopsticks on the bamboo cage on the table with his right hand, eating with the sauce in the cup.
This so-called buckwheat noodles is actually a buckwheat cold noodles.
But the taste is indeed good.
“Oh! Kuro!”
Sengoku walked over while chewing on a piece of rice cake. Seeing that Kuro was eating something, he also ordered Marine, “Give me a serving too.”
“Yes! It will be ready for you immediately!” The Marine saluted.
“It’s really leisurely. Sengoku-san, it’s good to retire.” Kuro chewed the food and glanced at Sengoku.
“Ahahaha, what a pity, you can’t retire yet, Kuro.” Sengoku laughed.
Kuro shrugged and said to Crane, “Long time no see, Granny Crane.”
Crane nodded. “I’ve heard all about it. You’ve done a good job. What about Sky Yaksha?”
Kuro pursed his lips. “Don’t worry, I’m guarding him. Nothing will happen to him.”
Crane sighed. “What is this called? Another defeat…”
Kuro said lightly, “This is like the rain, it can’t be stopped.”
“Alright, we’ll take it away. What about you, are you coming back with us?” Crane asked.
“Of course. What am I doing here?”
“Ahahaha, is that so? But you chose a king, don’t you want to stay here for a while?” Sengoku laughed.
“I am a Marine, why would I interfere in other people’s internal affairs? The previous change of king was also requested by the higher-ups, I am just acting on behalf of the higher-ups, you understand.” Kuro said.
“Then get on your ship. I haven’t been on your ship. How is it, Little Crane?” Sengoku said.
“It doesn’t matter, but your ship can be the safest.” Crane smiled and said, “At that time, there was a big movement in Headquarters.”
Kuro’s lips twitched.
Who could blame him?
After Sengoku finished his buckwheat noodles, Kuro clapped his hands and said, “Okay, you have stayed long enough. Go back.”
Crane nodded and ordered the other Marines to escort Doflamingo to Kuro’s ship.
A group of people headed to the port. There, in addition to a large number of warships, the huge golden ship was also there, looking unusually eye-catching.
“Master!”
Just as Kuro and the others were about to go up, a voice suddenly came from behind.
Kuro turned around and saw David standing there alone with no one following him. He said anxiously, “Master, I heard that you are leaving?”
“Don’t shout like that. You make me look like someone.”
Kuro turned his head and said, “Since you are a king, you should be a good king. You are a good person and will develop this country well.”
“I understand, Master.”
David nodded heavily and took a deep breath. “Master, I don’t know your wish yet.”
My wish?
“Of course it’s Ann…”
Kuro opened his mouth, but when he saw Sengoku, Tsuru, Yixiao, and other Marines, he swallowed it.
He thought about it and said, “Well… world peace.”
Almost. He would be safe once the world was at peace.
He was not wrong.
David was stunned. “This wish… is really grand.”
“Just work hard and make your own country peaceful.”
Kuro waved his hand and did not say anything. He turned around and boarded the ship.
Looking at the golden ship sailing out with other warships, David thought for a while and murmured, “World peace…”
“Master, you didn’t attend my wedding and even let me be the king. Do you think that I haven’t ruled Dressrosa enough? I understand… Dressrosa will also become your sword and cut through thorns for you!”
David seemed to have made up his mind and turned to walk inside.
“From now on, I will be King David, everything, for Master’s wish!”
… .
“I can finally fucking leave.”
On the deck, Kuro looked at the island of Dressrosa that was getting farther and farther away and exhaled. “I’m going to be moldy in this place.”
“Hey, Kuro, I heard that you have a good chef here. Let me try her cooking.” Sengoku said with a smile.
“That’s not a problem. Since you’re here, I can’t treat you badly.”
Kuro replied and asked, “But Doflamingo is so defeated that the higher-ups have no idea?”
These words made Sengoku’s laughter gradually fade. He slowly said:
“This world… If you lose, you have to admit it. What the world is like is never what we can expect. Doflamingo’s reins have lost their effect, so it’s not strange for there to be any turbulence in the New World.”
“The only thing we can do is to do our best to maintain the order of this world and not let it completely collapse.”
As he spoke, he looked back and made sure that there was no one around before saying, “This old man also opposes Yixiao’s claim, but this old man has already retired, so I will leave this kind of thing to you. Your decision to change a king in Dressrosa is right. If it is still King Riku, things will be very troublesome.”
Kuro knew this, too.
The World Conference is coming up.
If the king of Dressrosa doesn’t change, Laughing’s claim will definitely be the first to be supported by Dolder, followed by the Nefertari family, and the Kingdom of Flowers…
With the support of the three big countries, the small countries that support them will also support them. At that time, they may succeed.
“Isn’t this kind of thing our mistake…”
Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke. “The Shichibukai candidate is very problematic. At least that Whitebeard II, I don’t like him very much.”
