Chapter 364

Spicy Man

Basil’s performance in Headquarters training is normal, so he doesn’t have any rank, but considering that he has been trained by many old Marines, although he didn’t make any contributions, he graduated as a Headquarters First Class and re-entered Kro.

He was directly under Crowe.

By the way, the stork is directly under Leda.

As for Donald, Kuro was going to let him form a team with Kaz and become his direct subordinate.

With such a straightforward and obedient guy around, not only can he replace Cass, but he can also watch him.

After taking Kizaru around, the two of them entered the office.

“By the way, Old Master, you came at the right time. Draw a group of craftsmen for me. I want to transform the Marine base. Now this is a modification of the previous building. It is too brittle and not safe.”

Kuro invited Kizaru to his seat and found a sofa to sit on. He took out a cigar and lit it. “Also, I don’t have many cigars in stock. Send me a batch as soon as possible.”

“Oh, you can afford it now, Kuro,” Kizaru said with a smile.

“That’s not the same. Your special supply is different from what I can buy.” Kuro shook his head and said.

Kizaru looked at him and said, “If you want it, why don’t you be a general? In this way, everything in the future will be top-notch.”

“Cough, cough, cough!”

These words almost made Kuro suck the smoke into his lungs. Cigars are different from cigarettes. This thing doesn’t exceed the lungs.

“Don’t mess around, you haven’t quit yet. Besides, my credit is not enough and my strength is not enough. Aren’t you driving a duck onto a perch? Besides, the World Government will never agree to it, absolutely not!”

Kuro shook his head like a rattle.

What kind of joke is this? I haven’t even been awarded a medal and you want me to become a general?

I’m big, I’m big my ass.

Only a sick general can be a general.

Then, he looked at Kizaru with a scrutinizing gaze and said suspiciously, “I say, old man, you can’t be here to ask me, right? There’s no need, people can’t, at least they shouldn’t… I’m fine on Pegasus Island. If there’s anything, you can talk about it when you really can’t do it. I want to be more idle.”

That’s what he said, but Kizaru will retreat and Kuro will not take over. It will take him at least 10 years to retreat. After 10 years, he doesn’t believe that Marine will not produce new monsters.

What could he do?

“Well… I’m just asking.”

Kizaru shrugged and made himself a cup of tea. As he poured water, he said, “Speaking of which, did Teacher Zephyr meet you before?”

“Well, I met him and he taught me a few things. I heard that this old man doesn’t have a good relationship with you?” Kuro asked.

“It’s not bad.”

Kizaru picked up the teacup and took a sip. He looked up and thought for a moment and said, “That serious man just doesn’t like my style. No matter what, he is still a teacher.”

He put down the teacup and said slowly, “The World Government has recently drawn up a new ‘Seven Warlords of the Sea’ personnel. Although it has not been completely confirmed, it should be enough. If one of them joins, the faith of that old man, Teacher Zephyr, may be shaken.”

Hearing this, Kuro narrowed his eyes and asked, “Oh? Who?”

“Edward Webb…”

Kizaru opened his mouth and said, “The surname Edward is very impressive, especially that man has a white beard. Such characteristics are really… terrible.”

“Whitebeard’s surname? I heard that the old ghost didn’t have any news of his biological son when he was alive.” Kuro blew out smoke and said.

“Sa, who knows.”

Kizaru said, “But what is certain is that the new recruit ship led by Master Zephyr was attacked by him. That man has the peak power of Whitebeard when he was young.”

“Oh, that’s really scary.” Kuro nodded in agreement.

Kizaru smiled and said, “We have no right to ask about the decisions of the World Government. Now Mr. Sengoku is talking with the higher-ups, but in my opinion, it may be useless. That group of people is best at balance.”

Although Marine is a direct agency of the World Government, in the face of the World Government that wants to maintain the balance of the world and pursue the “equilibrium power”, sometimes their choice may seem like a cerebral palsy to Marine, but in fact, it is right for the interests of the World Government.

Kuro could think of this.

Whitebeard was defeated by Marine, and Marine’s power and prestige have greatly increased. This is a good thing for the World Government, which will greatly improve their status in the world. But after the promotion, they also have to ensure that Marine’s power will not be too big. After all, that will unite the pirates and cause instability in the situation.

Then the best way is Shichibukai, another balanced force.

As a strategic weapon to deal with Yonkō (Four Emperors), there are too many people who have been removed from the top.

Blackbeard Titch, who had gone to the New World and was fighting for territory.

At the top of the official rebellion.

And Moria, whom they had ordered executed.

Currently, Shichibukai only has Hawkeye, the empress, and Yaksha. More than half of them are gone.

This number has to be added.

Edward Weeble, since he claims to be the son of Whitebeard, whether it is true or not, the World Government will treat him as real. If he becomes Shichibukai, first, he can be used to attack pirates at sea, and second, he can lower the prestige of Marines.

After all, he is the son of Whitebeard, the top pirate son who cost many lives to kill. If he becomes the direct agency of the World Government, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Marine’s prestige will decrease.

Of course, this is not without benefits. After all, Whitebeard’s son ‘abandoned the dark and joined the light’ is also a blow to the pirates.

The final winner is still the World Government.

There was just one thing they did not understand.

Even a good person without a temper would lose his temper when forced to the extreme.

It would be better to say that the consequences of a good person who has never had a temper are very terrible.

Kuro narrowed his eyes and said, “That old man Zephyr, you have also discovered that his faith is now a candle in the wind.”

“After all, you are an old man. You have to consider your old age. So, I came here. I heard that there are traces of that man in West Blue, so I came to see you and see if I can find that man.”

Kizaru smiled and said, “By the way, if you encounter it, you have to do something.”

“If I can meet…” Kuro nodded.

He didn’t mind stabilizing Marine. That old man Zephyr was pitiful enough. There was no need to force him. If he really met that man, he would have to touch him.

After all, they have not decided yet. If they kill someone before the World Government makes the final decision, the Shichibukai will have to be replaced.

As for the rumored combat power of Whitebeard when he was young…

If he had Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Kuro would retreat and go back to get reinforcements.

If there is nothing …

If they met, it would depend on whether Weeble was strong or not.
