Chapter 1318 - 1318 If the Sea Is Safe, I Will Be Safe



Editor: Atlas Studios

Of course, Kuro was impatient. Ever since he broke into the Country of Peace, he had only enjoyed a short period of peace, and now there was another problem.

After going down from Mariejois, Kuro flew all the way back to Red Harbor and found a restaurant to go in. There were not many Marines in the restaurant now. Many people had received his orders and went out to find Straw Hat and Tiki, but there were still a few people.

At one of the tables sat a few acquaintances.

He directly sat on it, grabbed a piece of meat and began to gnaw on it.

“Oh? Why are you back already? I’m not looking anymore.”

An old man with white hair and a long white braid beard turned his head and asked.

Sengoku.

Next to him was an old man with a buzz cut who was eating quickly. It was Garp.

Kuro bit off a piece of meat and chewed it a few times before swallowing it. Then, he asked, “I’m so angry that I’m hungry. Why did you two come out? I heard that I didn’t call you this time.”

“I don’t have enough manpower, so I was asked by the higher-ups.”

Sengoku said, then paused for a moment, and his lenses glowed and he said, “Sakaski… is injured?”

Kuro stopped eating the meat and nodded. “Well…”

“You don’t look good, Kuro.”

Sengoku thought for a while and said, “Straight to Red Harbor… You didn’t come from Mariejois, did you?”

Kuro finished the meat and bone leg in a few moves, then picked up the wine bottle without pouring it into a glass and directly showed off a bottle.

“Don’t guess there, it makes you look like you have a high IQ, I know you have the spirit and intelligence of Buddha, now you teach me what to do. The higher-ups want Sakasugi to step down, I will be the Marshal, isn’t that nonsense?”

Sengoku looked as if he had expected it and sighed again. “You will probably guess that after Sakasugi refused the orders of the higher-ups, this old man knew that there would be such a day. A long time ago, this old man said that we can’t fight against the World Government openly. We have many ways. Marine prestige is gone. As long as the pirates are finally destroyed, everything is worth it…”

If he was still a Marshal, he would not refuse the orders of the World Government. Marine’s retreat would damage Marine’s prestige and put Pirates back to the Great Age of Pirates. But with Marine’s reduction of the Revolutionary Army, once it reaches stability, the higher-ups will not let Pirates go, especially after the battle on the Waterfront Star Island broke out, they will not let others become Pirate King and will continue the war.

At that time, once there is a Second World War, the World Government will fully support them until the war is completed. At that time, their Marine will really have no scruples.

Unfortunately, Sakasugi’s temper would not do that.

“You have a way to deal with the higher-ups, but the key is that you are not a Marshal.”

Kuro said, “Let’s not talk about the future. Let’s talk about what to do now.”

“Pfft hahaha, isn’t it a good thing for you to be a Marshal?”

Garp finished the food in his hand and laughed and said, “Marine also needs a newcomer.”

“I’ve never heard of a newcomer reaching the top directly.”

Kuro snapped, “Stop laughing there. Besides, it’s not good for me to appear, especially for you, Garp.”

These words stunned Garp, and then he laughed in a low voice, “A man of the sea, when he makes a decision, he always has to pay the price…”

“Do you really think so?” Kuro looked at him.

Garp only smiled, but his eyes were a little lonely and dim. He said softly, “This old man… as a family member is a failure.”

“Okay, Garp, we are human, not beasts. This matter is not worth discussing. On the contrary, Kuro, what will you do if your child suddenly becomes a pirate?” Sengoku asked.

“Break his legs!”

Kuro didn’t stop and shouted, “Are you kidding me? I’m a general, and I’m going to be a marshal soon. I’m so famous in the sea, but I’m not a second-generation Marine and I’m going to be a pirate?”

With that, he froze and looked at Garp again and stopped talking.

That’s right, we’re all human. What right do we have to criticize each other? It’s too normal to go easy.

Still …

“It has come to this, there is no other way, Garp.”

Kuro slowly said, “Unless your grandson gives up and obediently goes to Impel Down and promises not to be a pirate in the future. Only then can he move around and be released from prison for a period of time.”

But even if you think with your knees, you know that it is impossible.

Therefore, he had no other solution except to die.

Pirates will not become heroes. A pirate is a pirate. No matter how the order changes, what he represents will always be the position of a pirate.

Not all pirates are like Straw Hat, or ‘Adventurer Pirates’ like him. They are too rare, and they know better than anyone what most pirates are like.

Sometimes, the people who know themselves best in this world are not themselves, but their enemies.

If pirates are so righteous and have such dreams, why does Marine still exist?

Since the birth of pirates, Marines have existed.

Because those pirates, indeed, have really threatened the lives and property of the people.

In the name of ‘Dream’, those pirates went to plunder and destroy. Because they have a dream, they do things with a clear conscience…

‘Don’t be ridiculous!’

There is no other way to treat them other than ruthless destruction. Kuro will not have sympathy for pirates, whether it is based on position or his own values.

He might have all kinds of reasons to trust everyone to do bad things, and there must be something pitiful about a hateful person, but knowing is knowing. He has experienced so many pirates, and he has naturally encountered some pirates who were forced by the world into that state.

But so what.

He is a Marine now, and he is still a Marine Admiral. In the face of pirates, there is no other solution except to capture and kill.

“Be a marshal, Kuro.”

Sengoku said at this time: “Sakaski is already injured. Since it is in the newspaper, the pirates will definitely party. You have a way, I know. So, be a Marshal, get rid of those pirates and let the sea enter a long-lost peace.”

He stood up and patted Kuro’s shoulder and said meaningfully, “As for what you want to do after peace, that’s your business. After all, you are already a Marine Marshal at that time, no one will stop you.”

These words made Kuro ponder.

Yeah …

If he forcefully retreated with such great achievements, nothing would happen to him.

At that time, the world will not be in danger and he can stop being a Marine. At that time, he will have the prestige to end the Pirate Era. Even if he stops being a Marine, Marines will still give him face.

After all, didn’t he become a Marine back then for safety?

Since he had already come this far, why not make the sea truly safe?

As long as the sea was safe, wouldn’t he be safe?
