Pirates: Devour All Evil

"Smoker, do you know about some of the 'accidents' in the East China Sea?"

Karsus returned to Smoker's office in the Rogue Town Naval Branch.

"What 'accident'? There will definitely be no accidents in the East China Sea that I protect."

Smoker took a long drag on his cigar and answered nonchalantly.

"Then do you know the Axe King Monka? Do you know that Monka and his son are bullying the people in Shields Town?"

"I have no idea."

Smoker took another long drag on his cigar, his face gloomy.

"Then do you know about the terrible incident in which Buggy the Joker destroyed half of a town with one cannon?"

"I heard something."

"Heh, that 'fishman' A'long has ruled over 20 villages including the Kokosia Village in the East China Sea for 8 years. Those 'fishmen' regard human lives as worthless. Do they really not understand the situation at all?"

Karsus stood up and looked down at Smoker who was still smoking a cigar, his disdain evident in his eyes.

"I understand a little bit of what you said, but I don't know whether it's true or not, so I dare not leave my post without permission."

Smoker continued to stuff the cigar in his mouth, then stood up suddenly and glared at Karsus.

"Rogue Town is the gateway to the East China Sea. As long as I am still in Rogue Town, there will be fewer pirates leaving the East China Sea."

Seeing that Smoker was still stubborn, Karsus didn't want to say anything to him anymore.

"Heh, then you stubborn fellow, just stay here. I'm going to build my 'East China Sea Iron Wall' plan."

『Armament Haki』

Karsus suddenly jumped up and punched Smoker on the head, blasting out three walls in succession. Smoker lost consciousness due to the intense and violent force.

"You are too cowardly, Smoker. Your lack of strength causes you to act timidly."

Smoker wanted to crawl out of the ruins, but he was powerless. Yes, he was too weak compared to Karsus.

"Colonel Smoker!"

At this time, a somewhat timid female voice shouted out from the crowd.

"Dashiqi, you came just in time..."

Karsus looked at Smoker who was lying in the ruins, and didn't know what to say.

"You've grown up, Tashigi..."

Karsus could only look at Tashigi with a few words. Karsus and Tashigi had very few interactions over the years, and Karsus was afraid that Tashigi would forget him.

The 21-year-old Tashigi already has long dark blue hair, and even gold-rimmed glasses cannot hide her beautiful figure.

"Who are you? You are not allowed to hurt Colonel Smoker!"

She pulled out the "Saya Shigure" wrapped in an exquisite green scabbard and pointed the cold tip of the blade at Karsas.

"I'm Karsus! Don't you recognize me?"

With his arms outstretched, Karsus walked towards Dashigi anxiously.

"Don't come over here. If you get close to me, be careful of the sharp blade."

Tashigi nervously clenched the "Sayo Shigure" in her hand.

"Oh, I want to see how you are going to deal with me?"

Karsus walked into the one-meter warning range of the Swordsman.

If we don’t take action now, when will we take action?

Dashigi swung her sword at Karsus' calf.

It’s not that Dashiki intended to hold back, but under the suffocating pressure of Karsus’s 3.5-meter height, Dashiki could only hit Karsus’ calf with her height.

"Snow Snow Fruit: Elementalization"

The part that was cut off by Tashigi turned into snowflakes and scattered on the ground, and a cold breath emanated from the surroundings.

As snow gradually fell from the sky, Karsus' figure was also restored.

"Does the oath you made with me count? Dashigi, I am willing to collect all the sinful blades in the world with you. Are you still willing to accept me now?"

Karsas' words reminded Dashiqi of the beautiful memories two years ago when a handsome boy would pick her up and take her back to the girls' dormitory every night.

However, the plan was terminated due to the boy's sudden departure. In the end, Tashigi could only practice swordsmanship desperately and not think about the past.

"Oh, it's you, why are you back now?"

Tashigi lowered her head, making it impossible to see her face. Only a few drops of tears fell on the ground, splashing a little dust.

Karsus leaned over with concern and looked at Tashigi who was crying sadly with her head down.

"I am here to fulfill my vow..."

Before Karsus could finish his words, Dashigi stabbed Karsus in the chest with a sword.

Karsus didn't even dodge, and was stabbed straight into the chest by Dashigi.

Karsus touched the sword piercing his chest with one hand and stroked Tashigi's cheek with the other. The slightly cool touch was still so special after two years.

This move of Karthus completely overwhelmed Tashigi, who stared blankly at Karthus in front of her.

"You know, Dashigi, I am a natural devil fruit user. With your current strength, it is impossible for you to cause any harm to me."

Karsus hugged the stunned Tashigi, and their extremely seductive bodies leaned against each other, making all the marines present blush.

"But the Karsus I know is a boy, how come you..."

Before Dashiqi could finish, Karsus interrupted and said, "Stop talking. I am Karsus."

"Then I believe you, let go of your hand."

When she thought that the person covering her mouth was a familiar male friend, her face turned red instantly.

"Colonel Smoker~ I'll take you, Dashiki. If you're strong enough to play with me, I'll apologize to you."

“Remember that weakness is the original sin. No one cares about the justice of the weak. Only the justice of the strong deserves to be called justice.”

Yes, even the lazy justice of General Kuzan and the ambiguous justice of Borsalino can be called justice.

That means that only the justice represented by powerful people will be respected. Otherwise, no matter how correct your justice is, it is worthless.

"I don't believe it. I don't believe that the justice I believe in is just something so... so despicable!"

Smoker shouted at Karsus.

"It's useless. With your weak appearance and annoying personality, you won't even be able to leave a complete body when you go to the second half of the Grand Line."

Karsus struck without mercy.

"Let's go, Tashigi."

Karsus reminded Dashigi who was still looking at the tragic situation in the ruins of Reesmogg.

After purchasing enough goods for the voyage to the East China Sea in Rogue Town, Karsus gave Smoker some simple treatment.

Karsus said goodbye to Smoker in Rogue Town and headed straight for Seymour Shimura.

Shimotsuki Koshiro of Isshin Dojo, how would you feel if you saw Tashigi? What would he do if I resurrected Kuina?
