Pirates: Rush to the Peak

There was a room where fruits were stored in the village where Kuro lived. At the bottom of the pile of apples, an apple suddenly changed its appearance.

.....................

In a large thatched hut, Kuro was half lying on a straw mat on the ground, and Marco was cleaning his wounds.

"Bulu, bu, bu, bu."

"Kacha."

"Hey, Captain."

"A-er, are you guys going on a trip around the world? It's been so many days and you still haven't arrived?"

Ah Er, who was sitting at the bow, looked very helpless when he heard Kuro's words.

"Captain, you may not believe this, but we have been targeted by a group of sea kings. These guys have been blocking our fleet. Even if we take a detour, they will catch up with us."

After Ah Er finished speaking, he looked at the sea kings churning in the sea in the distance and sighed tiredly.

"Sea King Group?"

"Yes, they are all giant sea kings. Now they are blocking our way and we can't move at all."

"Is there nothing the old man Red can do?"

"Master Hong got anxious yesterday and went out with a knife in hand to force them away. Unexpectedly, those guys attacked Master Hong before he even got close. You didn't see the scene. It was as terrifying as the end of the world."

"How could this happen? Have you ever killed a small sea king on the road? Did they come to seek revenge?"

"We are in such a hurry, we don't have time to kill sea kings."

Ah Er slapped his aching forehead. These sea kings were really worrying.

"That won't work. Contact Crow and ask how Golden Lion is doing. If he's recovered, ask him to use his fruit power to send you over. I've already taken care of Wano Country."

"Wano Country is done???????"

Ah Er shouted in surprise, and all the crew members around him turned their heads to look at him. The Red Earl even appeared beside him from a distance.

"Is it that Kuro kid?"

Ah Er nodded blankly, and the Red Earl snatched the Den Den Mushi away.

"Kuro, how is the situation in Wano Country going?"

"Kaido has been killed by me. Now the generals of Wano Country are under my control. When you arrive, I will directly take control of the entire Wano Country."

"Kaido was really killed by you? Kaido of Beasts!"

"Ah."

Upon hearing the news, the Red Earl took a deep breath, his eyes instantly became firm, and he looked at the sea kings in the distance with murderous intent!

"Wait for us. I will kill all the sea kings that are blocking our way right now!"

"No need to do that. Contact Golden Lion and ask him to use his fruit ability to fly you over here."

The Red Earl thought about it for a moment, then agreed.

Golden Lion, who was recuperating in Wanguo, hurriedly flew into the sky with his ship after receiving the Den Den Mushi message from the Red Count. Traveling with him was this guy named Clo.

"Even Kaido died at the hands of that guy. How strong is that guy now?"

The Golden Lion was wrapped in bandages all over his body, and he tightened his cloak as he spoke.

"The captain's strength has always been a mystery. When I first met him, he knocked me unconscious with one punch. That strength was completely irresistible."

Kuro leaned his hands on the railing, thinking of the scene when he first met Kuro, and subconsciously touched his face. That punch almost took his life.

"Everyone says Kaido is a monster, but I think that kid is the real monster."

As the two chatted, the spaceship streaked across the sky and flew towards the sea where the Red Earl was.

After Kuro hung up the phone, Marco finished cleaning the wound, took the needle and thread he asked for and began to sew up Kuro's wound.

"Now that you've wiped out the Beasts Pirates this time, do you want to try to ascend to the top of the Pirate King?"

"Did Whitebeard ask you to ask me?"

Marco smiled and shook his head.

"Dad has decided to retire. He may hand over the position of captain to Ace in the future. Just do whatever you want to do. The White Group will not be an obstacle to you."

"So you're joining my pirate group?"

Upon hearing this, Marco directly inserted the needle in his hand into Kuro's body!

"The Whitebeard Pirates will never become someone else's vassal!"

"Are you kidding me?"

Marco ignored him and began to stitch up his wound.

"I'm still not interested in One Piece. But you guys, aren't you going to help Whitebeard become the Pirate King?"

"After the war at the top, we also figured it out. It was us, not Dad, who wanted to be the Pirate King. For the rest of the time, we just want to protect Dad and accompany him on his journey."

"You have finally grown up. I feel relieved to hear that."

Kuro pretended to wipe the corners of his eyes with his hands, as if tears of emotion were flowing down from somewhere.

Marco slowly raised his head after hearing this, with a kind smile on his face.

Then he quickly sewed up the wound with both hands. Marco used hundreds of stitches to heal the wound that could have been healed with dozens of stitches!

Kuro looked at the embroidery on his body and felt like drawing his sword and killing someone.

"That's too much, Marco!"

"This is all to help you recover as quickly as possible."

"Bullshit! I have a scratch here, and you want to embroider a butterfly for me?"

"You don't understand. This is to prevent your wound from coming into contact with the air."

"Stop talking, let's start the battle! I want to be the Pirate King at the top."

Kuro chased Marco with a knife. As Marco flew, he reminded Kuro to be careful with his wound, which caused the people to hide, fearing that Kuro would hurt them by mistake.

Finally, Ace and Yamato also joined in, and the four of them ran to the deserted mountains to fight. The result was naturally that Kuro won, and Ace and the other two were grabbed by Kuro's feet and pulled back to the village.

As night fell, the village lit a bonfire and began to prepare food. Sukiyaki took a basket and walked into the hut where the fruits were stored and began to select the fruits to be used in the evening.

After searching for a while, Sukiyaki suddenly froze in place.

"What is this? A devil fruit?"

Sukiyaki looked at the devil fruit with brown ivory-like leaves in the apple pile with a surprised expression. He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to deal with this devil fruit.

After thinking for a while, Sukiyaki put the mammoth fruit into the basket, covered it with a layer of apples, and then walked out pretending to be calm.

As soon as I walked out of the room, I met some people who were also carrying fruits.

"Master Feiche, you should use watermelon in the evening, not apple."

"Oh, I'm going to send these to Master Enelu. I see he likes apples very much."

"So that's how it is. Then send it over quickly."

The people went into the house to move the watermelons, and Sukiyaki breathed a sigh of relief, hurried back to his room with the basket, closed the door and carefully looked for a place where the devil fruit could be hidden.

After some trouble, the devil fruit was hidden, and Sukiyaki once again walked out of the room as if nothing had happened.
