Chapter 24: Hundreds of Clo

On the patrol ship.

Coles slowly withdrew his gaze from the sunken ghost ship. Although the treasure of the Silver Moon Kingdom was huge, it would be difficult to see the light of day again as the ghost ship sank to the bottom of the sea.

Just when Coles was relaxed, a cold voice suddenly sounded on the patrol ship.

"Is it over?"

Coles was instantly horrified.

This voice was not made by Major Kahn, and the other navy soldiers were not awake yet, which meant that there was one more person on the patrol ship!

Coles turned his head and looked.

Under the clear moonlight, a figure could be seen sitting on the left side of the patrol ship.

The owner of this figure had a big back hair, wore a black suit, and wore a pair of round-frame glasses on his face. Under the reflection of the moonlight, the mirror surface was particularly obvious.

Although the owner of this figure was not tall, and could even be said to be weak, Coles felt that he was in great danger.

Because he had seen the wanted poster before, he knew the identity of the person in front of him very well.

That was the captain of the Black Cat Pirates!

Hundred-Kero!

A pirate with a bounty of 16 million berries!

Even in the original story of One Piece, this is a well-known character.

According to the plot, because of his great fame in the East China Sea, Hundred-Kero is often captured by the navy and bounty hunters, which is annoying.

In the end, in order to get rid of the identity of a pirate, he relied on his superhuman wisdom to fake his death and sneak into the village of Sibro.

But why did Crowe appear here? Has his fake death plan not started yet?

Kahn also recognized Crowe, and his expression immediately became solemn. The injury he just received in the ghost ship was so serious that he could hardly fight.

But no matter what, protecting the recruits is what he, the instructor, must do.

Kahn picked up the famous sword embers beside him and prepared for the battle with difficulty.

Seeing this, Coles quickly dissuaded him, "Major, your injuries are too severe to fight. I will take care of Clo. I will deal with him."

Kahn thought of the shadow soldiers that Coles had just summoned on the ghost ship, and finally did not insist, but took out his saber.

"Use my embers first!"

"Okay." Coles did not refuse. After all, the demon sword Red Moon has not been used in actual combat, and there may be various accidents and troubles. It is better to use the major's famous sword first.

Clo pushed his glasses and said in a slightly cold tone: "Are you too confident?"

Coles pulled out the embers from the black scabbard, and the sharp blade pointed directly at Clo.

"You will know if you try it!"

Clo wore cat claw gloves and was used to using his wrist to push his glasses.

"Interesting, then I'll try it!"

On the patrol ship, the battle was about to break out!

Coles held the embers tightly in his right hand, rushed towards Clo at a very fast speed, and slashed out with one blow.

Crowe used the Ten Blades Cat Claw in his hand to resist, and the crisp collision sound resounded on the patrol ship.

Although [Lanros] can easily deal with Crowe, Coles did not summon it directly, because only by experiencing the battle himself can the combat experience continue to improve.

And he also wanted to see how strong Crowe of the Black Cat Pirates is.

As a pirate with a great reputation in the East China Sea, Crowe can constantly escape from the pursuit of the navy and bounty hunters, which is enough to prove his own strength.

But what makes Crowe a little confused is.

The young navy in front of him is obviously a recruit, but his strength is far better than some navy lieutenants, and he can't defeat him for a while!

It's really interesting!

"Silent Step!"

Crowe pushed his glasses with his wrist again, and his footsteps began to move at a high speed. This is one of his assassination techniques, and it is rare for the navy to resist.

Seeing Crowe's figure disappear in front, Coles's expression became alert.

Suddenly,

The sharp Ten Blade Cat Claw attacked from the left, and he quickly blocked it with the embers in his hand.

But before Coles could counterattack, Cloe disappeared again with silent steps.

Behind him, Cloe's figure quietly appeared.

Once the sharp cat claw fell, Coles would definitely suffer a heavy blow.

But Coles was prepared.

"Shadow Shield!"

A solid round shield composed of shadow power appeared behind him, blocking Cloe's attack for him.

Then, Coles turned around and stabbed him with a knife. Although the sharp blade did not hurt Cloe, it cut a crack in his suit.

After Cloe retreated, he looked at Coles with a serious expression: "Are you a devil fruit ability user?"

"You guessed it right!"

Coles stood with a knife.

Crowe pushed his glasses with his wrist, and when he raised his head again, he had put on a strange smile: "Although I don't know why the navy on your ship fell into a coma, I have a story. Do you want to hear it?"

Coles' brows frowned.

Crowe said to himself: "On this moonless night, your patrol ship encountered the Black Cat Pirates. Captain Crowe killed all the navy. And you, the new recruit who ate the devil fruit, are so powerful that you can catch Captain Crowe yourself. How about it?"

Coles suddenly thought of this year's time. It is now 1517 in the Sea Circle Calendar, and there are still three years before the official plot of Pirates begins.

And this time point is exactly when Crowe is tired of the navy's pursuit and is ready to implement the fake death plan.

According to the original plot, Cloe took a small boat and quietly came to the navy ship, killing all the navy, leaving only Monka, and finally asked Zangao to hypnotize one of his crew members to pretend to be himself.

So, the hypnotized navy Monka also thought that he had caught Captain Cloe.

In this way, "Captain Cloe" was executed, and Monka was promoted from a marine to a colonel. Cloe faked his death and sneaked into the village of Sibro, and the plan was perfectly implemented.

Originally, the hypnotized navy candidate would be Monka, but now looking at the meaning of Cloe's words, it seems that he wants to choose Coles as the surviving navy.

Is it because of himself that the plot has shifted?

Coles understands the change in the plot. This is a change in the world axis at a certain node, turning to a different development direction.

And now, he is that change node!

Thinking of this, Coles suddenly showed an evil smile and took the lead in attacking Cloe: "Sorry, I'm not a brainless and reckless guy like Monka!"

Monka, who is that?

Cloe was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it and started a new round of battle with Coles again.

The first step he needed to take now was to defeat the navy who had eaten the devil fruit in front of him, but let his subordinate Zangao come to hypnotize him to carry out the next plan.

Cloe pushed his glasses with his wrist for the last time and said coldly: "It's over! Spoon!"

In an instant.

Cloe's figure disappeared from the spot, and only a residual image could be seen, and some buildings around him showed traces of being attacked by sharp claws.

This is Cloe's strongest move.

"Silent Step" indiscriminate attack.

Using high-speed movement and cat claws on the hand to attack, a large number of enemies can be killed, so fast that even the person who made the move didn't know what he would cut.

Coles immediately had several scars on his body, and blood kept flowing out of it. He thought of counterattacking but couldn't find any trace of Cloe.

This kind of shaving-like move, he couldn't crack it at all now.

Can I only summon [Lanros]?
