Chapter 960 – Stuck In The Middle
The Country of Peace was ruled by Kaido for more than 20 years, and then these people suddenly became slaves and did not even dare to resist. From the face of this old man, he could see the emotions and thoughts of ‘not resisting because they will definitely fail’.
Kuro has seen many countries and people, especially after entering the Grand Line. Some countries and some people are enough to shock Kuro.
He had seen the Kingdom of Korff before. For the sake of his ideal hometown, the old king had to complete his obsession even if he had to turn evil and forcefully turn the ‘Kingdom of Pirates’ around.
He had seen the Krane Kingdom, the king who was willing to die and be reviled by the people in order to arouse the national resistance. Kuro did not appreciate this behavior and even felt that there was something wrong with his brain, but it did not stop him from being shocked.
Pirates who have seen Sabaody Archipelago were called heroes because of an impulsive thing they did when they were young. In the end, they also carried this title and died calmly.
In order to make people admit to creating a lot of panic, the Lion Ape who had seen a certain grassland kingdom
He has also seen a certain religious country that single-handedly made the entire country not dare to say anything about this and even made a country die!
What are these people doing?
Of course he was resisting!
They are resisting the default rules, they are resisting the rules they think are wrong, they are resisting the prejudice in the hearts of everyone, they are resisting the ugly fate imposed on themselves!
They may have succeeded or failed, but they have accomplished their purpose of ‘resistance’, and that purpose is enough to reverse everything that the world has done to them and they dare not do it again.
Even the World Government, after the matter of Zephyra almost destroying the New World, has considered Marine a lot.
Because they did not dare to do it again, they did not dare to easily make policies that would make Marine angry.
It was only because Zephyr had resisted.
In comparison, what are these people?
One person died and then completely lost his fighting spirit?
Then, who can be counted on to defeat the evil dragon and this lost fighting spirit can come back?
What the hell is this!
Perhaps there is a consciousness of resistance hidden in their hearts, but consciousness is only consciousness after all, it is not action.
When everyone wants to go to the stars, some people just think that some people will act. They will be stupid enough to stand on high ground and jump into the sky, even if they fall off the cliff.
It was silly, but it was shocking because he acted on it.
At the very least, he will let people know that, oh, standing on a high place and taking the initiative to jump will not pick the stars. He has to find another way to remember this person and keep trying.
That was a mistake, but it was also a spark.
Without the step-by-step actions and mistakes of the predecessors, how could there be the final result?
These people… are waiting for the final results without working hard?
“The dragon will respect you, give you status, let you eat your fill, and take you to treat your illness… It’s not because the dragon’s conscience has improved, but because someone tried to kill the dragon. Even if they failed, the dragon still felt pain!”
Kuro pointed at Kaido and looked at the old man. “If you don’t fight with your last drop of blood and show him your determination and backbone to resist, do you think this kind of thing will respect you? If you had done something back then, even if you lost, you wouldn’t be like this!”
“Hoho! That’s right!!!”
Kaido opened his eyes and laughed happily. “You know me very well, Kuro! I respect Oden because he is a hero, but what right does this group of people have?!”
Kaido looked down on the people of the Country of Peace. Other than Oden, Oden resisted him. The courage and determination he showed made Kaido respect him. If the Country of Peace was all like Oden, Kaido would not have to use Oden’s strength. As long as he had such a backbone, Kaido would not let these people work for him. Instead, he would think of ways to make them work for him.
And if the people of the Country of Peace work for him, he will treat the people of the Country of Peace like his subordinates. Naturally, he will not destroy this place and make it foul.
If they fought with force, the Country of Peace would definitely lose. No one was Kaido’s opponent now.
But status is fought for by the Country of Peace.
Kaido never minded if they resisted, even if they wanted to kill him. He did not hate the strong, and the strong were not determined by pure force.
The expression revealed by will and the determination created by backbone are also strong!
Even if that black snake is killed, he doesn’t care. As a general, he will be replaced.
Unfortunately, after Oden, no one resisted anymore. For more than 20 years, no one resisted, even if they were pirates in the Country of Peace.
“Shut up, I’m not helping you!” Kuro said coldly, “I just don’t like this place.”
“Hoho, more than 20 years ago, Oden said that I will fail in these few years, but after so many years, these people have become more and more enslaved by me, how can I fail? Who do you rely on? Is it this suspected Joey Boy?”
Kaido glanced at Straw Hat and said arrogantly, “He is not!”
“Joey Boy?”
Kuro froze and looked at Straw Hat.
This was the first time Kuro had heard this name.
Kizaru rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
According to the transliteration, this means…
Happy Boy?
What good is that?
“Forget it, who cares what it is.”
Kuro held Luo Gui tightly, his blood energy rising.
“Hoho! Yes! That kind of thing is not important! Only strength is the truth!!”
Kaido rushed up with his mace and smashed it at Kuro.
Smack!!
Kuro’s figure flashed and he stepped on the River Spiked Mace under his feet. The force flew and blew his trouser leg.
At the side, Charlotte Lingling looked at the gap and laughed wildly as she slashed. At this moment, a thick beam of light hit her body and sent her flying.
Kizaru raised his sword, and the light gradually faded from the sword. He opened his mouth at Charlotte Lingling, “Oh~ Have you forgotten my existence?”
Kuro raised his head and looked at the huge Kaido. His blood energy continued to rise and surround him.
“Be prepared. The price of forcing me and the old man to stay is very high!”
At least …
Leave a few more marks on his body!
He had just destroyed Ghost Island and it reminded Charlotte Lingling of Sister. It was impossible for these two people not to think about him.
If we retreat like this, I don’t know what trouble we will face in the future.
He hated trouble and future troubles the most!
They had to fight. Otherwise, if they left, the news would spread and they would lose their prestige. Then, those pirates would find them even more trouble.
Although Kuro doesn’t really want to be famous, he has to admit that his fame is getting bigger and bigger. Once he is famous, people will find trouble with him.
But it’s not as big as that.
There are only two kinds of people in this world who can’t be troubled.
One is not famous and has no presence, which is also the state that Kuro wants to reach the most. Without fame and no presence, no one will look for him.
There is also another kind, such as Yonkō (Four Emperors) and the famous Admiral, but no one dares to find trouble with them because they are so strong that it makes people despair.
However, it was very awkward if he did not go up or down. There would always be people who wanted to make him famous.
Ever since he took over G-3, his life has not been good.
That idiot Titch wants to find trouble with me. How is that reasonable? Why didn’t he find trouble with the old man? Why didn’t he find trouble with Sakasugi?
Marine has already gone to Alabasta. Logically speaking, the Headquarters should also be empty. If Titch is a little more ambitious, he should bet on Sakasugi! What should he bet on?
The world’s number one attack power is a Logia. Isn’t it good?
Although Tiki was hurt this time, there are still two Yonkō (Four Emperors) here!
It just so happens that the old man is here. As long as he hurts all of them, the Yonkō (Four Emperors) will not find trouble with him and he can show off his power.
It was hard to say whether they would win or not, but as he said, if they bite the enemy, the enemy will be afraid and will easily come to find trouble.
When Kaido and Charlotte Lingling saw him coming, their first reaction was to leave both of them behind. Wasn’t it because they were not afraid enough?
If Sakasugi came to pick up the old man, they would never have this idea.
For the sake of his safety in the future, he made a name for himself and no one would bother him anymore!
If even Yonkō (Four Emperors) don’t dare to find trouble with him, then his safe purpose can also be achieved!
All roads lead to Rome. He is already like this, he has long given up on treatment.
