Man and Sword as One
On Port Street, Kuro led the way with a cigar in his mouth, his Marine cape swaying with his steps.
Behind him, Crowe followed with a cold face. Beside him, Basil bared his teeth and looked around with hatred, while a group of Marines walked at the back silently, giving people a huge pressure.
It did not look like a regular unit, but more like a black group.
Even the youngest Leda was staring around like a wolf.
It was not that she wanted to see the atmosphere, but she simply wanted to eat.
The pedestrians around them avoided Marine when they saw him. Among those pedestrians, there were also some people in different outfits who examined them.
“Chloe,” Kuro glanced around and said.
Crowe pushed up his glasses and said, “I just heard that ‘Four-Hat’ Petro has a bounty of 30 million Berries.”
“‘Mad Dog’ Douglasworth. Bounty of forty-two million Berries.”
“‘Big Eye’ Monk Yuan Tong has a bounty of 70 million Berries.”
“There are also some small pirates that are less than 20 million. There are a lot of pirates here. Mr. Kuro, what should we do?”
Hearing this, Kuro exhaled the smoke and said, “Do these people have too many bad comments?”
“No, including ‘Four Horn Hat’ Petro, also belongs to the general pirate stage, there are no fierce events,” said Crowe.
“Then abide by the local rules and we will leave after resupplying.” Kuro nodded and said.
This damn place has existed for so many years. It would be a lie to say that the nearby Marines don’t know about it. For such a long time, the pirates were still allowed to stay on this island.
In this town, there are also many merchants. Marine will buy some food and supplies every time there is a place. There is also the figure of Leda eating and stuffing her face. In addition, there are merchants swimming here and bargaining with pirates.
The rules of this island have been deeply rooted in people’s hearts.
Of course, Kuro can also be captured, but there is no need to do so on this island. It was not easy for them to create a peaceful scene, so why should they destroy it?
He was not Sakasugi.
“Kuro, this tastes good!”
Leda, who was wandering around the vendor stall, held a box of cuttlefish balls in her hand and ate until her mouth was full of black juice. She ran happily to Kuro.
Her actions caused Autumn Water, which was hanging on her waist, to drag on the ground. As her footsteps clicked, Kuro felt a toothache.
“I said, if you want to hold the knife, you should hold the knife properly. If the scabbard is broken, it will be very ugly.”
“I didn’t do it on purpose. What can I do with this height now?”
Leda glanced at Kuro and swallowed the box of cuttlefish balls as if she did it on purpose. As she chewed, she held the handle of the knife with her black-juice-covered hand and lifted it up fiercely.
He looked like he wanted to crush Autumn Water.
Click.
As she moved, Autumn Water’s blade was unsheathed and the black blade was exposed.
“Isn’t it just a broken knife? Can it be eaten by me?” Leda pouted and looked unhappy.
Is this a merit?
Also, why are you competing with a knife!
Kuro pulled the corners of his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly, a voice sounded first.
“Little girl, knives also need to eat, just like humans eat other lives. The food that knives need is human blood.”
A tall figure stood in front of Leda.
This person was about three meters tall and extremely thin. He was wearing a white formal suit and a gentleman’s hat. There was a gray scarf hanging around his neck that reached his waist. He held the brim of his hat and grinned at Leda. Above that smile was a hooked nose and a pair of upturned eyes.
“Little girl, if you don’t want the knife, how about selling it to me? Uncle will pay a high price.”
That grinning face, coupled with this lanky tall figure, looked extremely terrifying.
The moment the surrounding pedestrians saw this person appear, whether they were merchants or pirates, they all showed a frightened expression. Those who saw the expensive weapons subconsciously covered their weapons and ran away quickly.
He seemed to be a very threatening person.
Leda looked up at him and licked the ink on her fingers. She didn’t care about this horrible smile and asked, “Uncle, who are you?”
“Me?”
The tall and thin man smiled even wider. He covered his left chest with his right hand and bowed slightly.
“My name is Gadi, a staff member of Moe Island. My interest is to collect good weapons. Little girl, I think weapons can only be used by people who are qualified. You are not suitable for this knife. If you sell it to me, I will give you a high price.”
He held up two fingers. “Two hundred million Berries. I’ll buy this knife.”
200 million…
Even Leda couldn’t help but be shocked.
Although the [Famous Sword] is priceless, it still has a price.
Twenty-one jobs on the express knife can’t be sold for 200 million Berries. Even if no one is willing to sell it, it can’t be sold for 200 million Berries.
And this person casually offered 200 million!
That was a huge sum of money.
The price of a knife is comparable to two top ships.
In this world, cannons and giant ships are actually the orthodox of ordinary people. Some people are willing to spend 200 million yuan to modify their ships, but not necessarily people are willing to spend 200 million yuan to buy a knife.
An ordinary person would not be able to refuse this price.
In fact, Leda did not want to refuse. She had long disliked Autumn Water. If she could get rid of Autumn Water, she would have done so long ago.
But she could not do that. Although Autumn Water made her feel a crisis, no matter what, this was Kuro’s beloved knife. Only this knife could let Kuro exert his true strength.
Of course, she could distinguish between priorities and internal and external conflicts.
“Are you crazy? I’m not selling.”
Leda waved her hand. “Move, you’re in my way.”
“Really? Then I hope you have a good trip on Moe Island. If you change your mind, you can come to me. I live there.”
In front of the town, there is an uphill slope. This town is essentially a mountain-like island, and the higher it goes, the higher it is. And the direction that Gadi points is a huge fortress in the uphill slope.
He waved at Leda and walked around her. Then, he thought of something and turned back. “300 million is fine.”
“I won’t sell it for hundreds of millions of gold!” Leda made a face at him.
Gadi shrugged and walked forward without asking any more questions.
“That person…”
At this moment, Kuro had just walked over and looked at the tall and thin man with a trace of surprise in his eyes.
“He wants to buy a knife. He wants to buy your Autumn Water and offered 300 million Berries. Kuro, you want to sell it?”
Leda saw Kuro’s expression and quickly asked.
“What are you thinking, selling Autumn Water? Such a convenient weapon, if I sell it, where can I find it?”
Kuro rolled his eyes and looked at Gadi’s back again. This time his eyes were on the man’s waist.
There was a cross-shaped straight sword hanging there. The hilt was very short, but the cross-shaped handguard and the body of the sword were very long. The sword had the aura of [Famous Sword], but this was not the most important thing.
What Kuro cared more about was that this person’s aura was so compatible with the sword, as if he was born as one. The sword seemed to be harmonious only on him, but on others, Kuro could not imagine that kind of scene.
In his previous life, this was called ‘One with the Sword’.
People in this state are rare.
