At Worst, I’ll Open the War In Advance

Flames and smoke intertwined and then dispersed. A few flames fell from the sky and hit the ground, scaring the nearby Marines.

In the smoke, a figure gradually appeared.

“He escaped..”

Smoker looked at the missing figure in the burning flames and frowned. “What does that man mean by coming here?”

Whitebeard Pirates Second Division Captain, Portgas D. Ace.

Smoker was not interested in his head. He had just bumped into it and as a Marine, he did his duty.

“Colonel Smoker!”

Tashigi came from the rear.

“Tashigi, where is Kuro?” Smoker looked at her and said.

Tashigi shook her head. “I didn’t see Mr. Kuro and others.”

“Che.. I launched Marine to continue looking. When I was looking for Straw Hat and Ace, I saw that Kuro also asked him to come back. Now is not the time to be leisurely. Otherwise, why would I ask him to come to the Grand Line with me? If he was here just now, Portgas D. Ace would definitely not be able to escape!”

“Achoo!”

In the alley, Kuro suddenly sneezed.

“Huh? You can catch a cold?” Leda looked at him strangely.

“Don’t joke.. Maybe someone is thinking about me, like a gentle and reasonable big sister.”

Kuro rubbed his nose and chuckled.

“Humph! That kind of person will not like a lazy guy like you.” Leda stuck out her tongue.

Kuro shrugged indifferently and continued to wander around the city.

“I’m starving, I’m starving. One more wave and we’ll go eat.”

Leda began to pester.

“Is a million enough for you to eat? Just shout here. Besides, we still need some capital. There’s a famous gambling town in Alabasta called ‘Rainland’. Get some capital and go there to earn some money.” Kuro said.

“I don’t care. I can’t help it. I’ll look for it one last time. If I can’t find it, we’ll go back.”

In order to be able to eat as soon as possible, a trace of red flashed in Leda’s eyes. Her Kenbonshoku (Observation) color was fully activated and covered the entire city.

“Yes, there are twenty or thirty people’s breath in that direction!”

Leda looked happy and ran over quickly.

“I can’t do anything to you.”

Kuro sighed and ran after him.

.. .

In the alley, Luffy giggled. “Hahaha, Ace, thank you.”

Ace, who was leaning against the wall, smiled. “You are still so energetic.”

Around them, a row of people fell.

“Ahahaha, I am very happy.”

Luffy and Ace walked side by side, ignoring the remaining besiegers and heading towards the port.

However, at this moment, a petite figure suddenly ran in front of them and pointed ahead excitedly. “Here, Kuro, here!”

Then, she looked at the two people in front of her.

“Child?”

Ace glanced at it and smiled. He reached out and touched Leda’s head. “Little friend, go home. It’s too dangerous here. Don’t run around.”

In his opinion, this little girl was a trespasser. She must have been frightened to see so many uncles with knives.

And Leda behaved the same way, staring blankly at Ace and not moving.

Ace’s hand touched Leda’s head.

In an instant, he felt his body go soft and his legs weak. He knelt in front of him.

“You..”

Bang!

A foot swept towards his face and hit him in the face, sending him flying.

“Ace!” historical

Luffy was shocked and his arm stretched out to grab Leda. “What did you do to Ace?”

At the end of his words, his hand touched Leda’s arm and his body went soft. “Ah.. I’m so tired, I don’t have any strength.”

Without looking, Leda patted her head and moved Luffy’s hand away.

“Who allowed you to touch my head? And.. Isn’t this Straw Hat Kid?”

The scene of Luffy on the execution platform in Roguetown Square left a deep impression on her. Of course, she still remembered this person, and it was at that time that Kuro got angry.

Kuro happened to walk out from the corner. When he saw this scene, he raised his eyebrows and immediately felt troubled.

Ace? Luffy?

Two big troubles.

Leda’s Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki can only sense the breath of people at present, and Kuro forgot to turn on his Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki, which led to the absence of the breath of the strong. Otherwise, he would have gone to eat just now and not caused this trouble.

“Straw Hat Kid!”

Crowe, who was behind, also saw Luffy and his veins were showing. “Great, I finally met you. Let’s settle the score with West Rob Village!”

“Do you also have a grudge against Crowe? Then let’s catch him, it’s only 30 million.” Leda looked at Luffy who had no strength and said.

Kuro knocked her head. “When did you become so arrogant? Thirty million, and you’re just returning it?”

“Pain..”

Leda covered her head and pouted. “Didn’t you say that you would only capture the average number? East Blue has three million, and the average bounty of Grand Line is 30 million.”

“How troublesome..”

Kuro slapped his forehead and started thinking.

‘Release?’

It should be released. He could not afford to offend either of their backgrounds.

However, he suddenly thought that he was so cautious. As a result, as soon as Luffy went out to sea, he had no choice but to go out to sea. His ten years of hard work was ruined.

This had to make Kuro believe in metaphysics.

“If I catch Luffy before he does anything, he will be thrown into prison at most. With Garp’s influence, he may even be released. He won’t die even if he is not released. In other words.. if he is caught now, the sea will be calm and he will be safe for the rest of his life.”

‘What?’

A wave of the times?

What does it have to do with him, a person who wants to go ashore?

Kuro narrowed his eyes, flashing dangerously.

“It seems.. I can do it.”

Kuro reached out and slowly touched the hilt.

“Fire Fist!”

A huge flame came straight at him.

Leda instantly transformed into a young girl, her hands covered in Armament Haki and she stood in front of Kuro.

The flames exploded from her hands and scattered in all directions, turning into a wall of fire that covered everyone’s vision.

“Flame?!”

Leda was shocked. She sensed for a moment and said, “Kuro, they ran away!”

“Well..”

Kuro pulled out the [Hua Zhou] and with just a swing of his blade, the wind pressure he brought out extinguished the flames. There was no trace of the two people in front of him.

“He ran away.. Forget it, he ran away.”

Kuro smacked his lips and gave up.

It’s good that he ran away. It saves trouble.

“Nature..”

Leda came back to her senses and said with some doubt, “Flame, Logia.. looks familiar.”

“You are right, that is the Second Division Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Portgas D. Ace,” Kuro said.

Leda’s eyes widened. “The super rookie pirate who became famous two years ago? ‘Fire Fist’ Ace?!”

“I.. Am I in trouble? Will Ace hold a grudge? If he targets me, Whitebeard will target me.”

Leda looked like she was about to cry.

After all, he came from the Grand Line and everyone knows how terrifying Whitebeard is.

Kuro also thought that it was quite troublesome, but looking at Leda’s frightened expression, he smiled and touched her head. “You were recruited by me personally. I promised to give you safety, so I will definitely give you safety. It’s fine if he doesn’t come, but if he comes, I will catch him!”

Just because he’s afraid of trouble doesn’t mean he’s really afraid of trouble.

If that’s the case, we can just start the war ahead of time!
