Safe, Steady, Not Famous
However, this was obviously impossible. In fact, the staff wanted to run away, but Kuro stopped them and did not let them go.
“I say, do you have any professionalism? I’m a guest, do you understand? This place hasn’t collapsed yet. If it hasn’t collapsed, you can continue. It’s not easy for me to win some money. One round, one round, let’s guess the size. If I win, you give me 60 million, I can’t lose.”
“Hey, don’t go, at least help me change the chips.”
The staff ignored him and ran out. Kuro could only catch one person and said earnestly:
“You can’t go back on your words. If the chips are not exchanged for money, it’s useless for me to ask for chips.”
The staff member tried to break free twice and found that he could not break free. The vibration at the top was getting stronger and stronger and it looked like it was going to collapse.
“Guest, you can come back next time. This place belongs to the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the hero of Alabasta, Crocodile. It is impossible for us to renege on our debt.”
It’s because it’s him that I want to change it now!
His straw hat is already in the rain. In two days, Crocodile will be in prison. Can you still keep your business?
“Change it for him.”
Just as Kuro was entangled with the staff, a gentle voice sounded from behind.
“Manager?”
The staff looked behind Kuro.
Robin slowly walked over and said to him, “It’s just an accident. This place won’t collapse. After replacing this guest, let him come back and continue his work.”
She looked at Kuro and said, “Guest, sorry for the trouble.”
“It’s no trouble, just change the money.”
As for Nicole Robin, of course Kuro knows her, but so what?
Would he be afraid?
Anyway, Robin doesn’t know me.
Robin waited for the staff member to bring a suitcase, took it from him, and handed it to Kuro. “Your 30 million Berries have been changed. Do you need to count it?”
“No need, the quality of this shop is still very good.”
Kuro took the suitcase, turned around and waved. “Goodbye.”
Then he left quickly.
This person is wanted at the age of eight and is highly regarded by the World Government. It is better not to pester him.
Robin stared at Kuro’s back and smiled: “Strange guest.”
That deliberate walking posture and the deliberately maintained movements were enough to expose his deliberate disguise. The only people who came here to play and pretend were government-related people.
After all, the relevant personnel can’t enter.
“Kuro, where did you go!”
Not long after she left, Leda found Kuro and rushed over with Crowe.
Kuro raised his eyebrows, looked left and right, and pointed to himself, full of questions.
“What are you doing? Pretend you don’t know him.” Leda ran over and stared at him strangely.
“Damn, you can recognize me dressed like this?”
Leda was not there when Kuro changed his appearance.
“The smell is here.”
Leda sniffed and said, “I will know you even if you turn into ashes.”
“Smell? I’ll turn into ashes and you can mix rice.”
Kuro said angrily, “Didn’t you go with Smoker to catch pirates? What are you doing here?”
This is asking the obvious. That vibration just now was Smoker and Luffy escaping.
“Smoker is missing. I don’t know where he went. We were too bored and wandered around. This ‘Rainland’ is so prosperous. It is worthy of being Crocodile’s base.”
Leda pulled a packet of snacks from Crowe’s arms and tore it open to eat.
Crowe had food in his arms and Huazhou hung on his waist like a tool.
The three of them gathered together and no one noticed that in the nearby corner, a few hands with eyes and ears gradually disappeared.
“So it’s Marine.”
In the Casino, Robin opened her eyes and looked surprised.
It doesn’t matter if it’s that man, but isn’t that Bisento’s black suit the same as Crowe?
“Are you here for intelligence, Marine?” Robin thought to herself.
“What are you doing?”
Crocodile looked at the destroyed basement and the large number of banana crocodiles on the ground and looked at Robin.
“No, it’s nothing. I just feel that this group of people are very lucky to run away.” Robin chuckled.
Crocodile’s face was gloomy. “A little pirate who doesn’t know his place. I want him to pay. Chase him.”
… .
Kuro changed his attire and happened to meet Smoker. He was wet and holding a cigarette in his mouth.
“Yo, what are you doing here, swimming? Not taking off your clothes?” Kuro greeted him.
“Don’t joke, Kuro.”
Smoker’s expression was serious. He took a deep breath and then blew out the smoke. “Clockdale has a big plan, but we have no evidence. Damn Shichibukai!”
Moreover, even if there is evidence, it will not work. He is only a colonel and is not qualified to command the World Government. The only thing he can do is to disobey orders.
But even if he acted on his own, there had to be a limit. After all, he was still a Marine. The World Government would not agree to catch Crocodile by force, and even if he reported it to them in advance, it would not matter.
The plan was already underway.
“I’m going out. Kuro, you take command.”
“?”
Kuro pointed at himself. “Me? Command what?”
“It’s up to you. Crocodile wants to rob the country in Alabasta. What you want to do depends on you. Follow your Marine mind. I have something to deal with.”
With that, he told Marine to get his scooter ready.
“Kuro, you are Marine, don’t forget your duty.”
Smoker got on his scooter, took one last look at Kuro, and went straight out to sea.
My duty?
My duty is to be safe!
Kuro opened his mouth and looked at Smoker’s retreating back and sighed. “Trouble.”
“Mr. Kuro, what should we do?” Tashigi stood next to him and asked.
“It’s cold.”
Kuro replied, “What else can we do? Let’s go to Alba. Tashigi, you are in charge of leading the team.”
“Me? No, no, I am not that strong, and Colonel Smoker is referring to you…” Tashigi waved her hand.
“If I ask you to lead the team, you will lead the team. You are also a Marine, and you are also a Headquarters Cao. A branch commandant is not as valuable as you. Just follow your own justice.”
Kuro looked serious. “I want to act alone and make some preparations.”
“I see. I misunderstood you, Mr. Kuro. I thought you were lazy. I am really sorry!” Tashigi apologized solemnly.
‘No, you didn’t misunderstand.’
Why did he interfere with the plot?
According to common sense, Luffy must have killed Crocodile and Marine ended it.
It’s such a convenient thing for him to get involved in. What if something unexpected happens? He can’t just watch his colleagues get killed and injured. At that time, it seems that only he can stop Crocodile.
Then he became famous.
Last time, he used Crowe as a shield. This time, if something goes wrong, who will he use as a shield?
Not to mention defeating Shichibukai, even if he went easy on Shichibukai and was forced to retreat, that would not do.
After all, that’s Shichibukai, the oldest Shichibukai. Isn’t it common to lose to them? It’s already famous that he didn’t die.
At that time, Headquarters will take a look again. If his strength is not bad, he will be promoted and he will be called to the war. Wouldn’t that go against Kuro’s original intention?
The best way to do this is to split up. Dusky will clean up the mess and he will just shake it.
Safe, safe, absolutely not famous!
