After fooling Cass, Kuro breathed a sigh of relief.

He was the Navy of the 153 Branch.

That's right, it's the branch ruled by the axe-bearer Monka.

It was also Luffy's first stop.

Zoro was captured, which means that the plot begins, and in the next few days, Luffy will come where he will be, defeat Monka, and liberate the 153 branches that are ruled by force.

He didn't want to cross paths with Luffy.

Anyone who can make trouble will be blacklisted here, and don't even see him.

Otherwise, why would he lead a patrol ship to sea from time to time, and stay safe in the branch until he died.

And if you go back now, what if you change the plot, what if Zoro doesn't follow Luffy, then Luffy won't have to look for a partner in the East China Sea.

What if he doesn't find a good one, and if he stays in the East China Sea for too long.

According to such a person who can make trouble, if he really wants to make things happen in the East China Sea, few people can cure him, and if this affects himself to arrest him, then the matter will not be endless.

What if he hurts him, what if Karp gets entangled with him, and if he exposes his strength and is called up to the headquarters and then goes to the New World to arrest the pirates, isn't it very troublesome.

He's not afraid, he just doesn't want to change the plot.

Well, that's it.

A day later, the warship arrived at the location described in the treasure map.

"Cao Chang, it's the island of Garmoro."

On the bow deck, Cass Juncao held a telescope and looked at a volcanic island in front of him, facing Kulo on the side.

Upon hearing this, Kuro's heart was completely relaxed.

He had been here two years ago to buy supplies, and the island was an ordinary town, and there could be no treasure to be had.

That means there's no danger.

"Cao Chang, there is a pirate ship!"

Suddenly, Cass called out.

"What flag?" Kuro hurriedly asked.

"The not-so-famous Pirate Banner... The bounty should not be high. ”

Kuro believed this, Cass was a very serious person, and he was no worse than a bounty hunter when he remembered a wanted warrant, and he said that if the bounty was not high, it would not be high.

Steady.

"Open the cannon, sink it." Kulo Dao.

Boom Boom!

Artillery bombardment, several shells smashed near the pirate ship, and one shell hit the pirate ship, causing an explosion.

On the other side, there was no movement.

The pirate ship was like no one.

A few more shells were fired, but the pirate ship still didn't move, and if there were pirates on board, it should have moved.

However, Kulo didn't want to put away the cannon, so why not sink it if it can be sunk.

After a dozen shells, one shell from the warship hit the opponent's ammunition depot, exploding, and the ship slowly sank.

With the help of the telescope, Kuro saw that there was no sign of a living person on the ship.

As the warship approached, a group of navies went to the wreck of the pirate ship in a small boat, and after some investigation, the navy came back to report.

"Chief Cao, there are no people on the ship, and there is nothing on board, this is an empty ship."

"Got it, then don't worry about it, stop and go to town."

Kuro nodded, commanding the navy.

The small town on the island of Jermoro was at the foot of the mountain near the volcano, and Kuro had just come ashore with his men when he stopped.

"Cao Chang, what's wrong?"

Cass asked, seeing that Kulo's expression was wrong.

"Send a team to probe and watch out for danger."

Something is very wrong.

It's so desolate.

Kuro was cautious, and he would take every island he came to in mind.

The island was completely different from the one he had been to a few years before, the vegetation had obviously increased a lot, and there was no sign of animals to be found.

The four seas, where the weather is regular, are not as varied as the great shipping routes, and there is no such thing as an extremely rapid metamorphosis of an island in a few years.

And this current vegetation is obviously the result of the lack of ecological cycle of animals, which leads to its crazy rise, and this is limited to the value of being inedible.

Kuro walked all the way, and he didn't even see a decent wild vegetable.

There are no signs of large animals nearby, and it doesn't look like there are any predators stationed here.

Soon, Kuro arrived in town.

A few years ago, this town was still bustling with people, and the houses were very tidy.

But now, when he saw all kinds of plants growing on the houses, he remembered that there were fields nearby, but now the fields were more than half barren.

At the intersection, several yellow-faced and skinny children squatted there to play games, and one of them saw someone coming, stunned for a moment and ran into the town.

"Navy, Navy is coming!"

The door of the house was opened, and the townsfolk came out of the house and gathered around Kurlo.

The townspeople were also yellow-skinned, and one by one they showed the appearance of not having enough to eat for a long time, and a thin old man walked up to Kulo, suddenly knelt down, and cried: "Lord Navy, save our town!" ”

As the old man knelt down, the rest of the townspeople also knelt down one by one, sobbing constantly.

Kuro looked at the old man and said uncertainly, "Mayor Mendel? ”

……

At the mayor's house, Kuro sat in a chair and watched his house.

It's really a family with four walls.

He was here a few years ago when he came, but the mayor's family was still very wealthy at that time.

"Don't be in a hurry, eat slowly, it's not enough to have some on board." Kuro looked at the mayor of the town who was gobbling up on the other side and said kindly.

"Uh-huh."

The mayor kept nodding, but his movements did not slow down.

These people were hungry, and the first thing they knelt down to do when they saw the navy coming was to ask for food.

Luckily, Kuro brought a lot of food with him.

With the aim of safety first, Kulo will of course be very prepared to go out to sea.

The warship that can lead Cao Chang with this rank is a small patrol ship with a standard configuration of eighty people.

I didn't say that, full of editors.

Ammunition is stuffed, medicine is stuffed, food is of course stuffed, and in order to survive, Kuro takes enough food to fill his stomach.

Enough food for eight navy ships for three months.

"Hiccup..."

Mendel touched his round belly, burped comfortably, and tears flowed: "It's been a year, we haven't eaten for a whole year." Thank you so much, Navy. ”

"No thanks, Mayor Mendel, it's normal for the Navy to help civilians, and when I came to buy supplies a few years ago, you had a lot of discounts."

Kuro shook his head and asked, "So, you haven't eaten enough for a year?" Why? ”

As soon as these words came out, Mendel's face showed a look of horror, and he shook his head frantically: "I am already grateful for what I can eat, don't ask the reason, if there is anything in this town, you can take it, although it is already poor." ”

If he can, of course Kuro will.

It's just that he sighed as he looked at the mayor's dull eyes, which had long been numb, and the images of the gobbling townspeople he had seen before.

"We are the Navy, we will not be afraid, please say..."

"Lord Navy!"

Mendel looked at Kuro with emotion, as if he had made up some kind of determination, and said, "It's Florida, that demon, Florida!" ”

Florida?

"That Florida you're talking about, it's a pirate?" Cass, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but ask.

"It's not a question of whether a pirate is a pirate or not, it's the kind that is, the one that is rare... It was covered in white hair, and it swayed around like a ghost, and unfortunately I couldn't see its face clearly. ”

Mendel was terrified: "Since it came here a year ago, all the food on the island has been eaten by it, and it does not allow us to run, and occasionally a ship will come here, but whether it is a pirate or a treasure hunter, as long as they come to this place, they will lose their strength inexplicably." The demon told us to clear the ship and exchange the treasure for food for it to eat, leaving us with only a little to make ends meet.

I know, we're still alive because it's still useful, maybe one day if it's useless, Florida will eat us, it's already a cursed island! ”
