The Man Who Conquered the World’s Greatest Swordsman
“Oh? You recognize me, hahaha, don’t worry, you won’t go hungry.” Jepp laughed.
He had worked here for more than ten years, so it was normal for him to be recognized, but he had long retired, so it was nothing.
“What do you mean?”
Following Zhepp into the dining room, Leda whispered.
“Old pirate.”
Kuro curled his lips and said, “He used to be a big pirate, but he has retired for so many years and ZF has stopped pursuing him, so we Marines naturally don’t care about him. Don’t worry about him, as long as there is food, if he doesn’t give it for free, I will arrest him.”
It’s not a big deal to catch a retired old pirate.
He was not Golden Lion.
Zeph, on the other hand, was laughing in his heart. You eat so seriously. How much can you eat?
… .
The sound of plates stacking on top of each other echoed in the restaurant.
Marines were distributed at other tables, and three people were sitting in the center.
Crowe sat upright and pushed up his glasses from time to time. There was red wine and steak on the table.
Kuro was lazy and had a cigarette in his mouth. From time to time, he would look at White Hair, who was chewing on the side.
The table in front of Leda was piled with plates and she was eating.
A few chefs beside him looked pale.
At first, the chefs despised Kuro because Leda was too hungry. They felt that the little girl should have been abused and was usually hungry.
But soon they felt that something was wrong.
Too much food.
He really can eat a lot.
It was already the third round of the dinner.
Many Marines had finished eating, but the number of chefs in the kitchen still did not decrease. Because of this little girl, the speed of eating was comparable to the speed of 80 Marines, and it was like a bottomless pit.
The dishes that had just been served were gone in the blink of an eye. They needed to serve the dishes non-stop to ensure that Leda would not stop eating.
Kuro smoked his cigarette, not to show that it was none of his business, but to let the chefs inadvertently understand that Leda’s appetite is endless.
It was really fun to watch the chefs’ faces go from doting to weird to angry and finally to dejected.
Sigh, raising a foodie is so scary and boring.
“Chef, there are not enough ingredients!”
Someone started shouting in the kitchen.
Zhepp walked out of the kitchen with a depressed look on his face. He looked at Leda, who was still eating, and forced a smile. “Little friend, how is the food?”
“Well, not bad, 60% full!”
Leda nodded heavily, still chewing. “Balati is indeed Balati. The food is delicious, much better than the branch canteen!”
“Six points…”
Zhepp was stunned for a moment and laughed. “You’re not full yet. Well, as a chef, I won’t lose to the guests!”
He walked back into the kitchen and his roar came from inside. “Now go and buy ingredients. You must let the guests eat their fill. This is the meaning of Barati’s existence. Fight, this is a fight!”
Immediately, a chef left Barati and took a ship to buy ingredients.
“Kuro, is it not good for me to eat like this?”
After finishing another plate, Leda licked her oily lips and asked worriedly.
“You, a foodie, are still worried about the consequences? Don’t worry and eat. The chefs here all have a fighting heart. Eating is fighting. You won’t stop until you are fed.”
Kuro said easily.
There was a town near Barati, and soon the procurement ship came back, and the cooks began to fight on, and Leda… of course she was happy to have something to eat.
This meal lasted until late at night.
“I’m full. I haven’t eaten so much in a long time. It’s so comfortable.”
Leda leaned back without a care for her image, touched her round belly and breathed a long sigh of relief.
“Kuro, this is a good place. Let’s go back to East Blue after going to Headquarters. I want to eat here again.”
Kuro glanced at the exhausted chefs and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Be kind and spare these people.
“Letting our guests eat their fill is our Balati’s biggest purpose.”
Obviously also very tired, Zhepp forced himself to walk out and squeezed out a smile.
What a loss!
At this moment, he hated himself for saying that. Why did he have to treat her? Why did this little girl eat so much?
Of course, Kuro would not really let this old man lose everything. After all, Leda ate too much. Before he left, he kept the bounty of eight million Berries, which would also share some of his credit.
The Marines boarded the ship. Those who needed to rest rested, and those who needed to sail sailed. Their target was Rogue Town.
… .
“Rogue Town…”
Crowe looked at the approaching town and sighed.
“Huh? Been here?” Kuro asked.
“No, I didn’t think about going to Grand Line. This is my first time here.”
Crowe said, “Besides, there is a Colonel Smoker here. Since he came, pirates can’t land in Roguetown.”
In the early years, Rogue Town was still very chaotic. Pirates often gathered here in order to go to the Grand Line.
But since Smoker took office, this place has become peaceful.
After all, it was a Logia.
‘What? You said he was weak?’
You have to see who you are competing with.
Kuro empathized a little. Two years later, Smoker will become a Headquarters Vice-Admiral and go to the New World. Look at what kind of perverts he will encounter.
Shichibukai Doflamingo, a great pervert born with Haoshoku Haki.
Virgo, a big pervert who can be fully armed with Armament Haki. His Haki and Body Technique are top-notch.
Luo, the fruit ability has been developed to be very strong, and later on, it became Shichibukai.
There is still a gap between him and Hawkeye. If he is too exposed and is sent to the New World and entangled with Yonkō (Four Emperors), he will not be able to survive.
“Keep a low profile, you must keep a low profile!” Kuro clenched his fists.
The Battleship docked and a group of Marines escorted the Krieg Pirates to the Marine Base.
At the same time, in the Marine base.
“Colonel Smoker, the 153rd Division Warrant Officer in the report, Luciru Kuro, has arrived!”
In the smoke-filled room, a Marine reported to the figure.
“Quiet, a branch commandant is here. What’s the big deal?”
A deep voice sounded.
“Yes! I heard that Warrant Officer Kuro stopped the Horizontal Expedition of his branch, Colonel Mongkar, and captured a 6 million ability user, so he was allowed to enter the headquarters to study.”
“Oh, a Marine with some ability, but so what.”
“They also captured the Krieg Pirates!”
Clack.
The stacked high stones on the table fell.
The figure stood up and pushed open the window. The smoke gradually dissipated. Smoker held two cigars in his mouth and said in surprise, “Krieg Pirates? A branch commandant?”
Tap tap tap …
There was a series of footsteps outside. Smoker looked out of the window and saw a group of Marines escorting a group of pirates.
The leader was wearing a fur coat with ‘Justice’ printed on the back. He looked very lazy.
Beside him was a white-haired child chewing snacks.
There was also a slender man in a black suit and glasses.
“That man…”
Smoker’s eyes stopped on the man in the suit. “He looks familiar.”
“Colonel Smoker, Colonel Smoker!”
A woman’s voice came along the corridor. The woman with glasses was holding a knife and said breathlessly, “There’s big news!”
“Tashigi, how many times have I told you not to be hasty.”
Smoker frowned. “What big news.”
Tashigi looked excited. “Hawkeye, Hawkeye came to East Blue. He competed with a Marine in East Blue and claimed that Marine was qualified to compete for the throne of the world’s number one swordsman! That’s the throne of the world’s number one swordsman. It’s amazing!”
“Oh? That Hawkeye actually said such a thing.”
Smoker was shocked. “Which Marine?”
“I heard it’s a Marine from the branch. His name seems to be… Crowe, yes, Crowe!”
Smoker looked at the man in the black suit below. “It sounds familiar. Interesting.”
