Chapter 578
Vergo, I’m Definitely Going to Eat You
The smoke and dust were scattered. Vergo stood in the pit and looked up at the man in the air.
“Jin Xuan really lives up to his reputation…”
This man was not a fool like Smoker.
And their strength was worlds apart.
He was not an arrogant Marine like G-5. He knew how strong this man was.
It is an existence that even the Young Master is afraid of and has the combat power to destroy a country alone.
When Smoker invited this man here, he still had the mentality of a fluke. Maybe he was just here to supervise the atmosphere here and would leave after a while.
After all, according to the Young Master’s intelligence and his own analysis, although he is narrow-minded, he is a lazy guy who doesn’t care about anything.
But now…
“Do you know my real identity, Kim Jung?” Vergo said in a deep voice.
“The World Government can find anything.”
Kuro blew out a mouthful of smoke and said, “A dead skeleton can find a bounty order from decades ago. You just joined the Marine more than ten years ago. Isn’t that a little childish?”
Brook of the Straw Hats didn’t have a bounty on his head before. His only bounty was the ancient bounty of the living decades ago.
It was discovered by the World Government.
He did not understand how a person with flesh and blood could contact a skeleton.
Why, does your hairstyle look similar?
In the end, it was still found out by the World Government and a bounty was re-established.
But whether Virgo found out or not, Kuro didn’t know. Maybe the World Government did, but for the sake of Doflamingo, selectively forgot.
But he didn’t care about that.
Just as Smoker said, he was also a Vice-Admiral and it was not good for him to attack rashly.
But this is not good for Kuro.
In case the World Government is unhappy with him and demote him or something.
Even if he didn’t, he wouldn’t be able to rise up either way.
Why? Can the World Government kill the old man and vacate the position?
When Kuro was promoted to Vice-Admiral, he understood that he could not be promoted anyway.
Moreover, it is a rare opportunity to mess around with colleagues. Anyway, there are no side effects. If it gets bigger, he may be demoted, so he might as well do more.
Kuro held Autumn Water tightly and Haki swept on the blade, flashing with golden electric light.
“Zhanbo!”
A huge slash with black and gold edges and a trace of scarlet in the center fell straight down.
When Virgo saw this slash, his forehead could not help but reveal a ball of cold sweat. Without thinking, he dodged to the side and avoided the slash that was falling at a high speed.
Boom!!
He was now in a corner of the nearby sea. Under this slash, the land in this corner was directly cut open by the slash, separating the foundation of the island and letting that single corner drift on the sea.
“You bastard…”
Virgo yelled, “Are you going to kill me?!”
“That won’t happen. I’m not that cruel. After all, you have served in the Marine Corps for more than ten years. We still have some friendship.”
Kuro said, “I have a good relationship with that Flamingo. I will give him face and be half dead. I want you to say something.”
At the mention of Flamingo, Virgo was silent for a moment. “Sure enough, you know.”
Bang!
He suddenly patted the land he was on and the small platform floating on the sea directly rushed out.
Kuro smiled and floated in the sky and flew straight there.
“Where do you think you can run to on the sea?”
Virgo, who was using the land cut by Kuro on the surface of the sea as a ship, pulled out the Den Den Mushi and slapped it to speed up while dialing a number.
Soon, the Den Den Mushi on Kuro’s wrist rang.
Kuro frowned and opened his wristwatch, revealing Den Den Mushi.
“Jin Lu! Stop! Let’s forget about G-5, don’t care!”
A voice came from inside.
“Who the hell are you?”
Kuro was stunned for a moment. He thought it was someone from Headquarters, or even the old man, but this voice… He had never heard it before.
“I am a senior official of the World Government…”
“Get lost.”
**TIP**
Kuro closed his wristwatch and blew out a mouthful of smoke. He said, “What the hell are you calling me for? Today, I am going to eat this Virgo, even if Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) comes!”
Kuro has his own code of conduct.
If you want to say that Vergo is a traitor who specializes in delivering intelligence, Kuro might not be a problem. Marines and the World Government are like f*cking sieves. There are so many traitors that Kuro is used to it.
Bear, Shichibukai, Revolutionary Army cadre.
The World Government also has the eyes of the Revolutionary Army and pirates, and even the so-called big shots of the Dark World.
Not to mention Marines, especially after World conscription, they are a mixed bunch.
Even if the old man told him one day that he was actually a cadre of the Revolutionary Army and became a general while lurking, it would not be surprising.
What’s so strange about Virgo being a snitch?
After all, he had been a Marine for 15 years, so he naturally worked hard and was promoted.
The position of Vice-Admiral is not so easy to promote. It requires merits.
No matter what Virgo has in mind, he will not be promoted without fighting pirates.
To be able to reach Vice-Admiral, he had killed many pirates.
If Vergo was just passing on intelligence and selling weapons, Kuro would really not take it seriously.
But the key is that this guy seems to be involved in a series of dark activities, especially the kidnapping of children.
If you sell a weapon and pass on information, who the hell cares about you? But if you do this thing, and Kuro gets the relevant mission, you will definitely be gone.
This thing wanted to end the battle quickly and could not be delayed.
Doflamingo is a former tenryubito. He has his hands and eyes in the sky and holds the reins of a New World monster. The World Government will definitely give him face. Originally, he wanted to leisurely investigate and drag the time.
But when he thought about it just now, it seemed that he couldn’t.
If he drags it out, he will probably be able to drag all the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars). At that time, it will be difficult to catch Vergo. Maybe this guy will feel that something is wrong and run away immediately.
It was better to end it as soon as possible and catch him.
As long as he did it, the World Government could only accept it.
“Rawr …”
The Den Den Mushi rang again.
Kuro picked up the phone and cursed, “I’ll say it again, even if you’re a Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars), I will arrest this Virgo…”
“Hey, why are you so angry, Kuro.”
The Den Den Mushi’s expression turned into a guy with a wicked smile and sunglasses.
“Oh… it’s you.”
Kuro said, “What are you going to do? By calling me, aren’t you indirectly admitting that this Marine Vice-Admiral is a spy planted by you? Shichibukai doesn’t want to be a spy anymore?”
“Hey, that’s not up to you. But, Kuro, I remember that you owe me a favor. I gave you the head of the [Big Hand Mortician].”
Doflamingo let out an evil laugh. “Then, it’s time to fulfill your promise. Let Vergo go. He is my dear family.”
“Huh? Are you kidding? Flamingo, I said before that I can help you do something without violating my principles, but unfortunately, I have many principles.”
Kuro said to Den Den Mushi, “This kind of thing happens to be one of them.”
