Long Black Hair and Silk Side

The buildings upstream were blocked by a city wall. A large number of fortresses could be seen inside the city wall. The gate was closed and there were a few people with spears guarding it.

Like the spear, these guards are very thin and long, like bamboo poles, but their arms are very thick and their feet are very big. This size can perfectly exert the power of the spear.

Seeing Kuro and others approaching, the group of guards made way for them. Two of the guards opened the mechanism and let the door open.

“Didn’t you say you won’t let them in?” Leda asked curiously.

The guards did not speak. Their eyes were as sharp but empty as those of the men in black before, as if they had lost their souls.

“He means to welcome us.”

Crowe said, “Mr. Kuro, have we been discovered?”

“Isn’t that normal? Don’t underestimate the sea.”

Kuro glanced at the people holding spears and his eyes darkened.

It’s normal to be discovered. You can’t expect others not to be domineering.

The thin and tall man from before should be the strongest on this island. It is normal for him to know some Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki.

Huh? The people of Paradise won’t be domineering?

Where did this logic come from?

He could only say that it was very little, but he could not say that it was not.

And Kuro never regarded that kind of extremely small probability as a safety standard. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even know how he died.

“The local owner invited us in to take a look. Sorry to bother you.”

Kuro took out a cigar, lit it, and walked through the door.

Inside the gate, it was also a town. Unlike the downtown where trade is prosperous, the downtown is a residential area with a few fortresses on the street.

This place was very deserted.

Kuro could feel that everyone was in the fortress, but they did not come out. Like weapons, the fortress was their weapon rack.

He raised his head and looked at the largest fortress in front of him. Above the city wall, the tall thin man named Gadi appeared and smiled at Kuro and the others. Beside him..

“Eggs?” Kuro was stunned.

“It’s a human!”

The stout oval man jumped on the wall and pointed at Kuro and roared, “Look clearly, I am a human!”

“So it’s a human.”

Kuro suddenly said, “So short.”

“It’s really short,” Chlo? echoed.

Leda nodded. “Is it an egg that looks like a human?”

“Enough!”

Polo gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t you remember that I invited you into Uptown? It’s rude to come in suddenly.”

Kuro blew out a mouthful of smoke. “You don’t look like a polite person. Those men in black with straight swords are your subordinates, right? They attacked Marines. Don’t you have to give me an explanation?”

“The [Blade Gang] was indeed killed by you, not the average Marine.”

Polo smiled and said, “How do you feel about my work? It’s comparable to Marine after your Headquarters training, right?”

Works ..

These words made Kuro narrow his eyes. He asked, “What is a work?”

Poropa looked up proudly. “Gadi, introduce him.”

“Yes.” historical

Gadi said seriously, “As you can see, he is Bonaparte Poropa, a short man.”

**TIP**

Polo turned around and hit Gadi. “Introduce me!”

Gadi straightened his expression and said, “Bonaparte Poropa, Moe Island Shorty.. No, Sir Moe Island, Honorary Count of the ‘Roman’ Kingdom and the ‘Sukenai’ Kingdom, Keeper of Peace, Master most respected by the people of Moe Island and the greatest scientist.”

“That’s right!”

Poropa said proudly: “I am the greatest scientist, destined to be greater than Vegapunk. As for the works and so on, don’t you see it? [Blade] is my work. Don’t you think they are like a straight blade?”

“That is my research result. How to turn weapons into ‘people’. The stronger the weapon, the stronger the person.”

“H-Humanization?”

Lida was dumbfounded and subconsciously hugged Autumn Water tightly.

Her actions just happened to catch Polo’s attention. “Oh.. Is that the Black Blade ‘Autumn Water’? Just by looking at the scabbard, I know that it contains an extremely powerful force. Unfortunately, it’s not suitable for you.”

“How about this, I won’t fuss about you crippling my work. Anyway, it’s the lowest defective product. Give me Autumn Water and I’ll pay 500 million Berries.”

Polo held up five fingers. “This is the highest price. Any more and it won’t be worth it. I can even give you some useful ‘Weapon People’, such as this..”

He snapped his fingers and the nearby fort opened.

A large number of guards who were guarding the gate walked out of a fortress. They were all thin as bamboo and had thick arms and wide feet.

“[Spearman], this kind of weaponized person, there is no need to say anything about loyalty, I can faithfully carry out orders, I also removed the speech function, even if I see any privacy, I will not say it. Just like robots, but it is much cheaper than the cost of building robots.”

Then, he snapped his fingers and said, “Guard the gate of my fortress and don’t let anyone in.”

Crash!

The phalangists ran in unison to the gate of the fortress where he was, side by side. The phalangists were raised with the movement of their hands and aimed forward. There was no stiffness or stagnation in their movements, even the angle at which the tip of the phalangists stopped was exactly the same.

The density of people standing side by side is probably not even enough to put an egg in.

“Their defense is also very strong.”

Poropa picked up a pistol and pulled the trigger on one of the lancers below.

Bang!

The lead bullet was embedded in the man’s head, creating a depression in his head, which was only a depression. The lead bullet did not penetrate at all, not even blood.

“The level of defense can block bullets, and it will be better with armor. He doesn’t know pain, and he eats less. As long as he is given the time to eat and sleep.”

Polo smiled proudly. “This alone can surpass the first-class soldiers of your Marine Headquarters. If the quality of the spear is better, it should be higher. How is it? Are you shocked?”

“Using these and 500 million Berries in exchange for that Autumn Water, this is already my greatest favor. If Autumn Water gives it to me, I am confident that I can create a swordsman who is stronger than a Dragon Horse. Well.. she is a woman, her personality is very gentle, just like a son.”

“As a black blade, it has been tempered by someone. Then as a human, she should have been married before. She should have straight black hair and the style is lace. Yes, it’s lace-edged, black long hair is straight and lace-edged, so it fits this blade.”

As he spoke, he looked at Leda. “Although this little girl is not bad, her hair color is too white. Although it is long, it is slightly curly and not suitable. I guess she is not wearing lace.”

“You bastard!”

Lida hugged the knife tightly and said angrily to Polo: “It’s impossible to give it to you, absolutely impossible!”

“Kuro, you can’t sell it. This is your knife!”

She still sounded a little desperate.

Long black hair, straight lace?

This type.. is probably what Kuro likes!

Kuro glanced strangely at Leda, who seemed to have fallen into some kind of crisis. He blew out a mouthful of smoke and said to Polopa, “Weapons turn into people? Where are the materials? These so-called Weapon People.. The raw materials are people.”

“Oh! You know a lot!”

Polopa said excitedly, “Of course it’s people. Look, there are so many people and they are not valuable. They are very cheap as raw materials for weapons!”
