The smell of blood flowed into the noses of the three people along the wind. Not only Crowe, who had a keen sense of smell, could detect it, but also Crowe and Lida felt it. It was very strong to a certain extent.
Kuro looked around. This was a temporary port that had not been developed. There was only a small village in front of it, but there were no people there. If he looked carefully, those village buildings still had a little black stain on them, which was dried blood.
Kuro squatted down, picked up a handful of soil, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed, his face darkened.
"No wonder the vegetation and flowers are so lush here."
No matter which world you are in, there is a legend that the land moistened by blood will surely grow beautiful flowers and plants in the coming year.
And in this land, the smell of blood in the soil was so strong that it almost made Kuro choke.
"What the hell did the old man choose for me? Is it quiet?"
These words made Crowe stunned. He paused and said: "Mr. Crowe, don't you know the situation of 'Pegasus Island'?"
"What?"
Kuro looked over and asked, "What's going on at Pegasus Island? Isn't it quite quiet like the old man said? Wait a minute."
Quiet?
It's quite quiet here. After people die, how can it not be quiet?
"Clo."
Kuro said in a deep voice: "Tell me about the situation. What are you hiding from me?"
"Mr. Clow."
Crowe was a little surprised: "I thought you understood."
What do I know about me?
Under Crow's almost cannibalistic gaze, Crow told Crow about the current situation of the Twin Horse Kingdom and the current situation of Pegasus Island.
"In other words, this ghost place is still suffering from war? And there are a large number of pirates occupying the island, and it is also close to the Upside Down Mountain? It is similar to the 'Rogg Town' in the East China Sea?"
Seeing Crowe nodding, Crowe fell into silence. He looked up at the sky and pursed his lips. The cloud in the sky gradually turned into the old man's smiling and wretched look.
"Gift? I'll burn the paper for you!" Kuro said through gritted teeth.
Although he said he had no problem with anything in Sihai, this place was obviously a trap.
According to Crowe, this place was originally the territory of the Twin Horse Kingdom. It was an independent island and occupied one-third of the total area of the Twin Horse Kingdom.
However, due to the war, the island was completely destroyed, and pirates invaded the island. The kingdom had no choice but to hand over control of the island to the government.
Naturally, the government uses this place as a naval base.
If Clow wants to live a safe life, he must first clean up the 'pests' here. If he wants to live comfortably, he must make the people here pay taxes.
There are no people here anymore, so naturally there is not much tax money. Then we have to recruit people again, and once all this is done, I don’t know how much time is wasted.
Is he here to enjoy his happiness?
He must be here to open up wasteland.
No wonder the navy who sent him had an expression of admiration on his face, and he would also admire anyone else.
Moreover, the delivery place was so remote that even warships obviously did not dare to go to the main town.
A red dot flashed in Kuro's eyes, and the color of sight covered the entire island, and then he held his forehead with a headache, "This number is too much, what is this? A pirate brood?"
From what I saw and heard, the aura on the island was densely distributed all over the place, with varying levels of intensity. If there weren't many civilians on the island, they would all be pirates.
Fortunately, my aura is not very strong, so I don't know if I have the ability.
"Wow, there are so many people, Qrow."
Lida also turned on her sense color and sensed a lot of auras, but with her current attainments, she couldn't distinguish between strong and weak ones.
"That's enough. You just asked me to come here with nothing, no troops, no supplies. It doesn't matter if you send me here first. The old man must be too cheating."
Kuro opened the phone on his wrist and was about to make a call. However, at this moment, he was suddenly stunned and stared intently at something hanging on a pillar at the entrance to the village in front of him.
"Eh? Kuro, is that person swinging on the swing?" Lida also followed Kuro's gaze and asked curiously.
Snapped!
Kuro gave her a look and whispered: "That one is a dead person."
As far as the eye can see, hanging on the door is a woman in ragged clothes. The bruise on her face has not faded away. There is a rope hanging on her head, and her body is swaying in the wind.
This is someone who was hanged alive.
"That's all."
Clow closed the cover of the phone bug, "Clo, what did the headquarters say when we came here? Where are my men and the supplies."
As Clow's adjutant, Clow basically handles all military affairs. Originally, Lida should also handle it, but she basically doesn't care. Most matters are handled by Clow.
"Headquarters said that a group of navy will arrive tomorrow with supplies." Crowe said.
"Tomorrow
Kuro took out a cigar, lit it, took a deep breath, and exhaled the smoke, "Okay, let's clear the place. After all, I will live here in the future. There are too many 'pests', which will affect people's life experience.
"
"Mr. Clow, I think we should wait until the navy arrives tomorrow before taking action as a group. This will make it easier for us."
He didn't even finish the last word 'many' when he saw Lida shaking her head at him and making a silent gesture.
She pointed at Kuro who had started to fly in one direction and said, "Don't you dare to make trouble with him if you don't see him? Kuro is angry."
Crowe pushed up his glasses and glanced at the corpse hanging on the pillar, "Is it because of that corpse? That's really unlucky, pirate."
"Don't waste time, go directly to the place with the most people!"
After Kuro's body flew up, he stretched out his hand to the sky and snapped his fingers.
Whoosh!
Two black shadows flew down from the sky. They were two black guns made by Tina. The black guns were seen spinning in the air, directly lifting the bodies of Lida and Crowe, letting them step on the guns.
, and flew forward very fast with Kuro.
…
Pegasus Town, as the main town on Pegasus Island, should have been a prosperous place. It can be seen from the large number of buildings that there used to be a large population here, but now, the streets are full of garbage, scattered wine bottles and
Fallen swords were everywhere.
Most of the surrounding buildings were dilapidated due to lack of maintenance. With the bursts of noise, dust and sawdust fell down along with the vibration of the sound.
Noise and bustle are everywhere in this town.
A pirate stepped on a body lying in a pool of blood, holding a bloody knife in his hand and a money bag in the other hand.
"If you hand over the money, you don't have to die. It's so stupid!" The pirate said with a ferocious smile.
"Hey, don't kill people casually. There aren't enough people in the town, and we still need them for supplies."
Another pirate who seemed to be a companion shouted in dissatisfaction.
"What does it matter? Pirates just want to do whatever they want, and we won't stay on this island much longer."
The pirate holding the knife said dissatisfied: "Just grab it and leave. As long as we have enough supplies, we can climb over the Upside Down Mountain and go to the Grand Line!"
"That kind of place. I don't know what the captain thinks. It's known as the 'pirate's graveyard'."
The pirate said half worriedly and half longingly.
For pirates, the Grand Line is a place of longing and dream. Only by going there can you be a real pirate.
"Hey, have you heard about it?"
At this time, a pirate holding a wine bottle staggered over and burped: "The king of this country seems to have sold this island to the World Government, and it will become a naval base.
"
"ha?"
The nearby pirates were stunned, and then laughed together: "Naval base? Hahaha, don't make me laugh. There are nearly 3,000 pirates here on Pegasus Island. This is already a pirate island.
Now, which navy dares to come over and take over, General?"
"They don't have that free time. Whitebeard is dead, and new people have joined us from all over the world. How can they have time to take care of this kind of thing, and ordinary people don't have that ability." A pirate said with a smile.
