Kuro held the hilt of the knife and slowly drew it out.
"Forget it, let's not delay any longer. People like you will be a threat sooner or later. I'll get rid of you here."
While she's not famous now, it won't be a problem to kill her.
The saber is just an ordinary standard saber, not a famous sword, but when Kuro's two fingers moved upward, the girl was obviously shocked.
The blade gradually glowed.
That light made her hair stand on end.
As someone who has been in the Grand Line, she is not comparable to the ignorant navy pirates in the East China Sea.
The girl wanted to leave, but she couldn't move at all now. The knife light seemed to have locked her in. No matter where she ran, she would be hit in the end.
Will die!
That murderous intent is genuine!
This man really wants to kill me!
"Wuming Shenfeng"
"I surrender!"
"?"
Kuro wiped the blade and tilted his head to look at the girl, and saw that her body changed, her body slowly shrank, and she became a seven or eight-year-old white-haired loli.
"I surrender, you can do whatever you want with me."
The girl collapsed on the ground, touching her stomach, "Damn it, I just exerted too much effort and I'm hungry again."
"Are you surrendering now?"
Kuro thought about it and gave up the fight. He really didn't have much interest in killing a little girl.
"Tell me, who are you and what is your purpose in coming to the East China Sea."
"My name is Flo Lida, I'm from the Grand Line, I have the ability of the 'Essence' fruit, I can touch the other person and absorb the other person's essence."
Flo Lida sat up and stared at Kuro fiercely, "Who are you, why are you still a sergeant in a branch in the East China Sea with such strength? Is the navy blind that they can't see a monster like you?"
The two looked at each other, and were silent for a while, and then said in unison: "Of course it's for safety!"
"Huh?"
Kuro was stunned and looked at Flo Lida. From her eyes, he saw a hint of shock and a little surprise.
Sheathing the sword, Kuro sat opposite her. The two looked at each other for a moment, then said in unison: "You speak first."
"There are too many monsters on the Grand Line. I'm not strong enough and don't want to go there (run away from there)."
"..."
"!"
You understand me!
A bosom friend!
Kuro said excitedly: "I don't want to go to the Grand Line at all. You said that my strength is not enough to go there. What about the Four Emperors GM Army? What if I encounter a strong person and fight, it will be troublesome. Injury is light, and I might die."
Flo Lida nodded vigorously: "There are too many monsters in the Grand Line. I am scared all day long, but I can't eat enough. I can only come to the East China Sea. I am weak here and people are easy to deceive. I like it here!"
"Not full?" Kuro glanced at her and suddenly realized: "The disadvantage of the ability?"
Lida cried: "I am a 'spirit person' who ate the 'spirit fruit'. The disadvantage of this ability is that I can't eat enough. Since I ate this fruit at the age of eight, I haven't eaten enough in ten years. There are too many monsters in the Grand Line, and I dare not be too blatant, so I ran to the East China Sea."
Flo Lida, now 18 years old, was born in the Grand Line and has the ability of the spirit fruit.
It can absorb the spirit of the touched person and use it for itself, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult to eat enough.
But she didn't want to be a pirate and be noticed by the navy, so she came to the East China Sea after much deliberation.
Cautious by nature, she made up the rumor of "Florida's treasure" to lure greedy people to the destination, and then robbed them, and after getting the treasure, she tried to exchange it for food.
"You are a bit too much, look at these people, they are so thin because of your hunger."
Kuro pointed at the townspeople who fainted on the ground and said. Hearing this, Lida felt even more wronged. "I told them that they could leave their own food, but they were too scared to leave more for themselves. I couldn't say it openly, and I was also very anxious."
Lida felt even more wronged when she said this.
"I have to emit Observation Haki every day, which is already tiring enough. Can't they be more obedient?"
Since becoming a 'Spirit Man', she has to use energy to do everything. In order to conserve her energy, she has always been an eight-year-old girl. Only when fighting will she use her energy to transform into her original age.
Not to mention that she has to use Observation Haki every day, that kind of consumption will only make her hungry faster.
She didn't think of killing people, she just wanted to eat enough. Those townspeople who wanted to escape were just sensed by her and used her ability to make them lose their strength and faint.
They just need to recuperate for a few days. She was going to leave because she had almost eaten up the island. If she continued to eat, the ecological chain of the island would really collapse. But she sensed someone coming and wanted to make another move, but she didn't expect to encounter such a monster.
"I said, I have surrendered. Even if you want to kill me, at least let me have a full meal!" Lida said unwillingly.
"Why should I kill you?"
Kuro's eyes were full of surprise. "It's not easy to have a full meal. Why not join the navy? The government is so rich, you can eat whatever you want."
"What a joke, I don't want to have anything to do with the navy or pirates. I just want to have a full meal, not fight."
"Follow me!"
Kuro pointed at himself, "Don't you think we are a good match? You want to have a full meal safely, and I want to live safely until death. We are together, just hanging around in the East China Sea, isn't it beautiful?"
He didn't want to refine copper, but one person has a shortcoming and two people have a long plan. The other party is so strong and not famous, which shows that he has a strong sense of security.
Kuro needs such talents!
Lida's eyes lit up. Yes, this man seems to be very suitable.
He has a little status in the navy, and he is very strong. He doesn't seem to be a battle maniac. If he joins him, he should be able to eat and sleep every day.
Lida yearns for that kind of life and drools.
"You only have one chance, otherwise I will capture you and announce that you are a person with special abilities. When someone comes, I will throw you into 'Impelton'. You know that place, right? It's very difficult for you to eat enough there." Kuro threatened.
"Don't say anything. I agree, but you have to promise to let me eat only 80%, not 60% full!"
If she surrendered to him, she wouldn't have to worry about turning on her observation Haki every day and change places every once in a while.
Haki consumes a lot of energy. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have eaten up an entire island in such a short time.
"I will definitely let you eat enough!" Kuro promised solemnly.
Then he regretted it
. It was easy to deal with Flo Lida. After the townspeople woke up, Kuro directly said that the monster was punished by heaven and was struck to death by lightning. The ruins were evidence.
Anyway, she was not famous, and the navy would not investigate.
As for Lida herself, she was just a hostage captured by the demon Flo Lida. Now that she was rescued, Kuro decided to adopt her.
After leaving half of the food and some treasures for the residents of Galmorro Island to ensure their survival, the navy continued to set off with the townspeople's grateful farewell. After
leaving half a month's worth of food for the townspeople, they still had half a month's worth of food left. They only had two or three days to return to the 153rd branch. Even if they were big eaters, how much could they eat?
Kuro originally thought so.
"Lida! Half a month's worth of food, and you ate it all in one meal?!"
Kuro roared at the little white-haired girl next to him in the office.
Lida was holding a carrot in her hand, chewing it while saying:
"I can't help it, I'm too hungry. I've been hungry these past few months with my Observation Haki, and I've never had a full meal. Besides, won't it be quick to go back? I've left some food, so don't worry about it."
"How can I not worry? That little food is not enough. What if we encounter a storm? What if we meet a sea king? What if we meet some Shichibukai who is so bored that he came here to travel in the East China Sea!"
Kuro was threatening, almost going crazy: "Then we will be drifting pitifully on the sea, and then be swallowed into the seabed by a big wave, and my dream will be over. What a joke!"
Lida looked at Kuro speechlessly. She finally understood why this man was only a sergeant.
She had been cautious enough, but she didn't expect him to be more cautious than her.
People with special abilities may not be human, but they are really cowards.
