In the East China Sea, Kuro lay on a lounge chair, looking at the sunny sea and sky, and puffed out a smoke ring soothingly.
Unlike the treacherous waves of the Grand Line, the East China Sea made Kuro feel particularly comfortable.
The most powerful pirates are in the Grand Line, but pirates have no skills to cross the windless zone except to risk their lives.
The weather is in line with basic common sense, the people are weak, there is no danger, and the waves are calm. Why doesn't anyone cherish such a safe place? Why do they all want to go to the Grand Line?
Kuro happily picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and asked the navy next to him.
That was a military officer.
"How long until branch 153?"
The sergeant saluted and said: "Reporting to the ensign, the sea area is now under the jurisdiction of the 155th branch. There is still a day and a half before reaching the 153rd branch."
This ship is full of privates from first class to third class, and there are not many people who actually have positions.
In addition to Clow, the largest ensign, on this hundred-man ship, in addition to Lida, the sergeant, there is also a sergeant standing next to Clow, and a total of six corps officers plus Clow, commanding a total of one hundred people in the navy.
.
The 'corps commander' here is not like in the previous life, he really only commanded five navies. Strictly speaking, the corps commander can be regarded as the battle squad leader.
In the past, when Clow was a commander in the East China Sea, when he led a patrol ship on a cruise, he, the commander, was equivalent to the captain, the sergeant was the staff officer plus first mate, and the corps commander was the combat captain.
But Lida, a sergeant, doesn't know how to be a counselor at all.
As Clow's direct subordinates, Lida and Clow never did anything themselves, and most trivial matters were handed over to another sergeant.
They also save time.
Listening to the sergeant's report, Kuro looked at the sea in front of him and nodded slightly.
Just a day and a half, no matter what, he has already reached the East China Sea, so close to the 153 branch, can Cass still fly from his hand?
"Pirate ship spotted ahead!"
The navy, who was watching from the watchtower, suddenly shouted to the bottom.
"All alert!"
The sergeant shouted, and the sailors drew their weapons, and those of the navy raised their cannons.
The elite of the headquarters, the little pirates fighting in the East China Sea, are too simple.
This ship carries a third-class soldier out, and if he is placed in the East China Sea, he will be directly regarded as the branch commander. If he is decentralized and performs a few meritorious services, he will soon become the branch commander or something like that.
The sergeant unfolded his binoculars, looked at the sea in the distance, and said, "Ensign, it's a pirate ship. It seems to be fighting a fierce battle with a warship."
"warship?"
Crowley was surprised for a while and said: "What kind of pirate? What's the pirate flag? How much reward is there?"
Why does the military officer think: "This"
How could he, a member of the headquarters, care about bounties on pirates in the East China Sea, especially when such bounties were not worthy of attention by the headquarters, and he had no idea.
The crazy Straw Hats who came from the East China Sea and destroyed Judiciary Island only received a reward of 30 million before being taken seriously by the headquarters.
The rest, if you don’t deliberately remember it, you really don’t know.
"Clo."
Qrow shouted.
Crowe stood up helplessly, walked towards Crowe, took the telescope from the sergeant, and took a look.
"It's the Rocks Pirates."
"???"
Crowley was so shocked by Crowe's words that he almost fell off the couch.
"who?!"
Looking at Crow's shocked look, Crow said inexplicably: "Rocks Pirates, Captain Rocks has offered a reward of 2.5 million Baileys, what happened to the newcomers who debuted in the East China Sea in the past two years?"
Crowe worked as a steward in the East China Sea, but that doesn't mean he doesn't pay attention to the sea. He might not know it if he just sailed in the past two or three months, but in the past six months, he would know it if he was a little famous in the East China Sea.
I just don't understand why Kuro is so shocked.
Has this pirate group ever made him suffer?
That's impossible.
If you have suffered losses, it will no longer be 2.5 million. Even 250 million cannot stop it.
Of course, Crowe didn't know Crowe was shocked. In fact, if he hadn't brought his own plot guide, and if he were a serious person, the younger ones wouldn't know what the Rocks Pirates represent.
That pirate group was erased from consciousness by the World Government.
Crow took Crow's telescope and looked over.
He wanted to see what kind of thing dared to be called Rocks.
On the sea ahead, a warship was exchanging fire with a pirate group. The cannons struck the sea around the ships on both sides, causing the ship to sway continuously with the majestic splash of water.
The two ships were very close, and Kuro even saw many marines holding guns and fighting the pirates in the air.
Those pirates are obviously more powerful in combat than the navy over there. They almost overwhelm the navy in fighting, but those navy somehow have a very strong willpower. Even if someone is injured, they will drag their injured body with them.
, forcefully fight the pirates.
Strong will to fight.
"Fire the cannon and sink the pirate ship." Kuro gave the order.
It's only 2.5 million. In the past, when Clow was the commander of Cao, he would have grabbed it easily, let alone a warship fighting with them.
"Yes! Second Lieutenant."
After receiving the order, the sergeant began to order the warship to sail quickly. After reaching the bombardment range, the main gun aimed at the pirate ship and fired one shot, hitting the middle of the pirate ship.
boom!
The pirate ship blew a big gap and began to sink continuously.
Under this attack, they also found a second warship approaching. The brave-looking pirates panicked, which allowed the warship on the opposite side to seize the opportunity. The navy fired harder, and several shells hit the pirates.
The ship, now hit at close range, has caused even more damage to the pirate ship.
There are not so many personal battles in the battles on the sea, but more of the bombardment between ships, especially in places like Sihai. Even if you are a person with abilities, if the ship sinks, it will be the end.
Under the constant attacks of the two warships, the pirate ship completely fell apart. The pirates fell into the water, lost their will to fight, and were captured by the navy.
Soon, Cullo's warship approached the warship.
"I am Second Lieutenant Chatham of the 155th Branch. Thank you very much for the rescue! We have been chasing the Rocks Pirates for a few days. We finally caught them, but we underestimated their combat power. If it weren't for you, we might have failed.
"
The navy petty officer on the warship was still injured, and he and other sailors saluted Clow and the others.
Qrow stood up and returned the greeting.
"That's right. We are all colleagues. This is all about helping each other. I am the second lieutenant of this headquarters, Lu Xilu Culuo."
However, these words made Chatham open his eyes instantly.
"Rusilukuro?!"
He said excitedly: "It's you, the naval hero of the East China Sea! The will you conveyed to Commander Kas Cao was admired by his subordinates. We are deeply moved by your will. We didn't expect to see the real person today! Kuro
Lieutenant, don’t worry, we will definitely promote your will and fight the pirates to the end!"
"???" Kuro tilted his head, looking confused.
What am I preaching about me?
Why are you so excited!
What the hell are you promoting, Cass, you idiot!
"Everyone, our naval hero Kuro defeated the pirate Rocks!"
