Chapter 1015 – Maybe Kuro Is Not That Strong
Although he said that, William still did not believe it.
But the truth forced him to doubt it.
He knew that since three years ago, Marine began to be equipped with a humanoid weapon called the Pacifista, which was very powerful. Even a pirate with a bounty of more than 100 million berries like Supernova may not be a match for the Pacifista.
Supernova!
The first step to becoming a great pirate is to become a supernova.
Only by landing in Sabaody Archipelago on the Grand Line will he have a future in the New World.
Although William did not want to enter the New World so soon, he still needed the bounty.
In the pirate circle, a high bounty represents High Hope, and High Hope can attract more pirates to invest.
At first, William thought that the pirates he killed were fake bounties, but when he saw with his own eyes that the Pacifista killed a pirate of more than 70 million and he killed him easily, he began to have doubts.
He was a smart person to begin with, and there were people constantly reminding him. Moreover, after experiencing so much, he could not help but mutter in his heart.
Could it be that, maybe, probably, or maybe… the people he met actually have similar bounties, but his strength is very powerful, but the bounty is low?
After all, that was in East Blue, and he was the first bounty. In East Blue, this price was already high enough.
If he had not been forced out of the East China Sea, he would have been able to dominate the East China Sea and build a bigger force with this bounty.
Moreover, a bounty of 30 million yuan is not impossible.
Because there is a precedent, East Blue also produced a pirate of 30 million before, ‘Straw Hat Kid’ Monki D. Luffy. Although it was 30 million, it directly rose to 100 million later. At that time, it was the time when Shichibukai Crocodile was defeated and captured by Marines.
This made William mutter. How smart was he? With some news and intelligence, he immediately guessed the trick. Maybe, maybe… Crocodile was defeated by this straw hat boy, which was why the bounty increased so dramatically.
Thirty million to deal with Shichibukai is not impossible, as long as he is strong enough.
But he had already attacked so many pirates, so why didn’t the bounty increase?
“Wait a minute… Could it be that because I went all out every time and led to the destruction of the Pirates, there was no information at all, so my bounty did not increase?” William doubted.
“Yeah!”
Mont Blanc slapped his thigh and shouted in relief, “I reminded you many times, but you never believed me!”
Elmyra pondered and said, “I think Mont Blanc’s words make sense. William, are we really thinking too much? Look, after we arrived at the Grand Line, the bad weather we encountered also withstood it, and the occasional Sea King also withstood it. Those pirates with a high bounty, not to mention you, they are not even our opponent. Pacifista, we don’t think they are strong. William, aren’t you too cautious?”
William was silent for a while and suddenly gritted his teeth. “Then let’s test it!”
“Test what? Do you want to fight Marines?” Mont Blanc’s eyes lit up. He was a little aggrieved in Sabaody Land. William said that he couldn’t deal with Marines, which caused him to be unable to use his strength and could only run away.
“Shichibukai!”
William said in a deep voice, “Let’s find Shichibukai! If we want to go to the New World, we have to verify our strength first. Then, we have to find Shichibukai and fight him. As long as we confirm that my strength is really good, we will march into the New World and make a name for ourselves there and become a real big pirate!”
When he said this, he was very excited.
From a young age, his dream was to become a great pirate, not to mention Yonkō (Four Emperors), as long as he was a great pirate, it was enough for people to know his name.
He had already dealt with Shichibukai with 30 million yuan. It was not impossible for him to do it again.
“I think it’s possible.” The usually silent Swire nodded and said, “Find a Shichibukai and experiment with it.”
“Which Shichibukai is good?”
Elmyra thought for a moment. “Now in the world, there are always five Shichibukai. The world’s number one swordsman ‘Hawkeye’ Jorakir Mihok, the Emperor of Hydra Island ‘Empress’ Boa Hancock, the original hero of Alabasta, the ‘Desert King’ Crocodile who was later arrested by the Marines, the original crew of the Roger Pirates, the boss of the Bucky Express Company, ‘Kirō no Tetsuya’ Bucky, and the new Half-Merman leader, ‘Deep One’ Rudolph, William, which one do you choose?”
“What do you think?” William asked.
“Bucky’s influence is huge. I’ve heard of Bucky Express Company in East Blue, and it’s even more so when it reaches the Grand Line. It’s the crew of Pirate King Roger. It must be very strong and powerful. This is the last thing to provoke.”
“Mihawk is the world’s number one swordsman. He is very experienced and strong. He may not be a good opponent. William, although you use a sword, he is still the world’s number one swordsman. It is not advisable.”
“As for Hancock, I heard that he is also very strong, and he is the king of a country, we can’t provoke him.”
“Clockdale was defeated once and his power is not as good as before, but he is also a veteran Shichibukai and may not be easy to deal with.”
“Then there is only one last one, ‘Deeper’ Rudolph. I heard that he is the leader of some Half-Merman, but it seems that his name is not prominent, only 300 million Berries. William, you can try.”
After listening to Elmyra’s analysis, William frowned and said, “Half-Mermaids… No, Half-Mermaids are not easy to deal with. I am an ability user. Once he dives into the sea, it will be very troublesome. In contrast, Crocodile, that straw hat kid from East Blue can defeat Crocodile, so can I! As long as I kill him, I can become famous directly. Even if I can’t kill him, I can find out where my strength is!”
With that, he stood up. “Just Crocodile, aim at Shichibukai and recognize the limit of my strength!”
After experiencing so many things, he even suspected that his childhood shadow was too strong, causing him to seriously overestimate Kuro’s strength. Otherwise, how could he block his attack in East Blue?
Perhaps without that childhood shadow, he might have defeated Kuro in the East Blue. If he had had more courage at that time and was not surrounded by shadows, he might have broken the bottleneck in his heart and secretly controlled a certain East Blue Kingdom as the foundation to rush straight to the Grand Line.
Right!
That’s how it is!!
If they really fought, that Rear Admiral named Sentomaru would not be his opponent.
Kuro is only a Vice-Admiral. Is he really that strong?
It might even be worse than Shichibukai!
As for defeating Ledfield and Bundy Walde, those people are not Shichibukai, they are just a group of old men.
As for the old man, his strength will decline when he is old and Kuro will pick him up.
Those old men might just be famous. After all, no one has seen him fight.
As for the current rumor that Kuro defeated Blackbeard…
In William’s opinion, defeating Yonkō (Four Emperors) and killing Yonkō (Four Emperors) are two different concepts. It’s not like Yonkō (Four Emperors) has never been defeated by Marines, but it doesn’t stop them from continuing to be Yonkō (Four Emperors).
As a Marine, Kuro struggled with a large amount of strength to collide with Blackbeard and won.
“Let’s fight first!”
William’s eyes were fierce. “Fight first! As long as the experiment is out…”
When the experiment is out, his fear of the Golden Lion will be greatly reduced, or even at the same level!
