Chapter 175

Become Mr. Kuro’s Shield!

“Oz…”

A few black lines appeared in Whitebeard’s eyes.

“You don’t have time to be sentimental now, Whitebeard!”

A masked Giant Vice-Admiral found an opportunity at this time. He jumped up at Whitebeard and chopped down with his axe.

Kuro was retreating at this time. When he saw this scene, he couldn’t help but click his tongue. “He’s so bold. Can’t he see that the old man has retreated? If he goes over at this time, he will be looking for trouble.”

Bang!

Whitebeard shook off the Giant Vice-Admiral’s axe with a punch. At the same time, he stretched out his arm and grabbed the Giant Vice-Admiral’s face with his five fingers and slammed it down hard with the power of vibration. The Iron Mask of the Giant Vice-Admiral shattered, revealing the bloody face.

“Step on Oz’s body!” Whitebeard roared.

“Kill!!!”

The pirates gathered and rushed towards the port.

Bang!

On the other side of the Bay Wall, it was knocked away by a huge icebreaker, and those affiliated pirates who had not yet reached the back of the sea were also approaching the ice.

All the members of Whitebeard had already stepped on it.

Without the Captain’s attention, Leda felt less pressure.

Kuro slowly walked over and took advantage of the situation to deal with the small pirates rushing towards him.

Bang!

Kuro cut off an incoming blade with one slash, and even the pirate himself was sent flying.

He shook his head and looked at Crowe and Cass lying on the ice. He was furious and kicked Crowe. “Hey, can you still move?”

After being kicked twice, Crowe spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood and panted. From the looks of it, it shouldn’t be a big problem.

Crowe is an expert proficient in the Rokushiki. He was only shocked by Whitebeard and did not lose his combat power.

At this moment, Kaz pushed his body away and staggered to his feet. He said, “Cu, Mr. Kuro, I’m sorry. I’m too embarrassed to let you see me like this. I’m really… too ashamed to see you!”

“Well, as long as he is fine, you don’t have to care about anything else, you are very brave,” Kuro comforted.

To dare to lead a group of soldiers to charge at Whitebeard, that is not ordinary bravery.

It was the kind that even the brave Kuro admired.

“Mr. Kuro…”

Kaz’s eyes were filled with tears. He was actually praised by Mr. Kuro.

Although it was embarrassing to be injured, if he was praised by Kuro for being brave, then everything was worth it!

He wiped his tears and saluted Kuro. “Mr. Kuro, I will not let you down!”

“What?”

Kuro was stunned. What did I do? You didn’t let me down?

Kaz roared back, “Get up! We are brave and tenacious Marines. It’s just Whitebeard. That little injury is not enough to make us yield!”

“Merely…” Kuro’s expression was a little strange.

“Mr. Cass is right!”

Among the Marines lying on the ground, someone gradually stood up and said, “We are Marines, we will not give in!”

“That’s right, justice will not yield to any evil!”

Another Marine stood up.

One by one, these Marines all got up and gathered behind Kaz. Although there was blood at the corner of their mouths, their eyes were firm and the light in their eyes made Kuro subconsciously take a step back.

It feels more dazzling than the old man’s light…

“You must be Mr. Kuro!”

A Marine looked at Kuro, touched. “He is worthy of being respected by Mr. Kaz. He dares to deal with Whitebeard and several Captains alone. He is really… really heroic!”

“That’s right, heroic and righteous, Mr. Kuro is exactly what I imagined!”

“Such a Marine is our role model!”

“Mr. Kuro, lead us to victory!”

“Yes! Get Whitebeard’s head and make Mr. Kuro famous in the sea!”

Marines were shouting crazily here, and their momentum even covered the shouts of the surrounding pirates.

Kaz waved his hand and the Marines fell silent. He looked at Kuro with burning eyes. “Mr. Kuro, now is the opportunity. Under your leadership, we will definitely get Whitebeard’s head for you!”

I’ll take you to hell!

I came to save you out of kindness, and this is how you repay me?

Why didn’t you get killed by Whitebeard!

Kuro was so angry that his teeth hurt.

At this moment, he sensed Whitebeard’s sharp gaze after hearing Marine’s cry.

This guy is angry because of Oz’s death. If he is about to hit him with anger, he is not Sakasugi and can’t bear the damage.

“Next time, definitely, next time.” Kuro waved his hand.

“Mr. Kuro, why!”

Kaz was puzzled. “This is a battlefield. If we don’t deal with it now, we might not have a chance in the future.”

This was true.

If I don’t hit Whitebeard now, I won’t have a chance in the future.

He’s dead. Where can you hit him?

“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi rang.

Kuro turned on the Den Den Mushi on his wrist and a voice sounded from inside: “Step by step retreat, start planning.”

Kuro raised his eyebrows and said to Kaz and others, “The higher-ups want us to retreat. In short, retreat first. Also, don’t think about doing anything big, take care of yourselves first. Also, don’t say my name for no reason. You are not my subordinate.”

“Yes, Mr. Kuro.” Kaz pursed his lips and looked depressed.

The Marines behind him also became depressed.

They were dull. It was better than Kuro sending himself to death.

He hit Whitebeard?

A few generals were still slacking off. How could a Lieutenant Colonel like him go up?

Let’s not talk about whether he can win or not. Even if he can, he won’t fight. What if he gets promoted?

Kuro breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly became alert.

Wait …

If Kaz and the others hadn’t been shocked by Whitebeard, wouldn’t they have killed a lot of pirates?

Those are all famous big shots in the world. If they are really killed, coupled with the presence of a fool like Crowe, he will be in danger after the war.

So close, so close!

Kuro wiped the sweat on his head and looked at Crowe, who was still lying down and vomiting blood. He was angry again.

If this guy hadn’t rushed forward, would Kaz, this idiot, have seen him?!

He kicked him hatefully. “Are you dead? If you’re not, get up and leave!”

“Oh.”

Krodden immediately shut up, wiped his mouth, stood up and followed Kuro.

“Hey, Cass, retreat.”

Kuro greeted Kaz and retreated with Leda and Crowe.

The Marines were in a state of doubt.

“What’s going on? Why didn’t that Mr. Kuro lead us? Is he afraid?”

“No, he’s already here to save us, he won’t be afraid of Whitebeard.”

“But he retreated too quickly, as if he was… afraid of war?”

“Yes, and he said not to cause any big trouble and not to mention his name… What is this?”

The Marines behind Kaz pondered.

“Shut up!”

Kaz suddenly roared, “You disappoint me. If you don’t understand Mr. Kuro, don’t make assumptions. Mr. Kuro is not like that. On the contrary, he is just encouraging us!”

“Motivation?” The Marines tilted their heads in unison.

“That’s right! My justice is guided by Mr. Kuro, so Mr. Kuro can’t be a coward.”

“Mr. Kuro is warning us to be vigilant. The enemy is a world-famous pirate. We should indeed be vigilant.”

“In the past, Mr. Kuro said: The sea is too dangerous. You have to be fully prepared to deal with dangerous pirates who wander the dangerous sea.”

“And I actually forgot Mr. Kuro’s warning and asked him to save us personally. As a subordinate, it is a great shame to drag our superior down! He is disappointed in us, disappointed in our ignorance and arrogance! But even so, even so…”

“Mr. Kuro still said those words and told us to stay vigilant and not be arrogant. We can’t mention his name now because we are not strong enough. When we are strong enough, we can carry his name!”

Kaz burst into tears and shouted, “Mr. Kuro is still thinking for us, idiots!!!”

This speech was deafening.

The Marines fell silent.

“I see, I was too confident…”

“How can I fix it! Let the person Mr. Cass respects come to save me and I actually doubt him.”

A Marine slapped himself hard.

“That’s right, we were too careless. If we keep doing this, we will be a burden!”

“Mr. Cass! Give us another chance. We will prove to Mr. Kuro that we are not a burden!”

“Yes! Mr. Cass, please don’t be disappointed in us, continue to lead us!”

“Mr. Cass!”

The Marines were in tears.

Kaz wiped his tears and smiled at them. “How can I give up on you! During the period of confusion, I was also awakened by Mr. Kuro, so I also want those who are confused to awaken their own justice. If you are still confused, follow me and let us uphold ‘Tenacious Justice’ together!”

“We will not easily withdraw from this battlefield. Now go back and quickly repair and treat our injuries, and then prove to the world that we are Marines who will become Mr. Kuro’s most powerful shield. ‘Tenacious Justice’ will not yield!”

“Oh!!! Become Mr. Kuro’s shield!”

“Long live Mr. Cass!”

“Long live Mr. Kuro!”

The Marines raised their weapons and shouted.

The oppressive aura just now was swept away and became unprecedentedly high.

The manifestation of Kaz’s will caused heat to rise around them again, distorting space and turning their faces ferocious.

In the square, Crane glanced at Kaz and saw the rising heat and said in surprise, “This power… Is that Kuro’s subordinate? He actually cultivated such a Marine. Kuro’s teaching skills don’t seem bad.”

“Oh ~ It’s indeed quite scary.”

Kizaru also looked over and said, “He actually united a group of soldiers. That bearded man has unimaginable power. No wonder Kuro wants to save him.”
