Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman Chapter 156 Kuzan's Answer

"My dear little junior brother, let me guess, which Shichibukai did you defeat this time? The Empress? Or Jinbe?"

On the other side of the Den Den Mushi, Kuzan said helplessly.

Every time Remos called him, it was something bad. He had just warned Moria not long ago, and Remos also promised not to cause trouble for the Seven Warlords of the Sea again. However, not long after that, the phone called him again.

"This time it has nothing to do with the Shichibukai, it's something else."

Remus cleared his throat and said.

"That's really the best news I've heard today. Tell me, what's the matter this time?"

Kuzan asked, resting his cheek on his hand and tilting his head.

"Kuzan, are you able to talk now?"

convenient?

Kuzan looked around him.

Garp was crunching on senbei, Marshal Sengoku was processing documents with his head down, Sakaski was crossing his arms with a sullen look, Borsalino was sitting with his legs crossed and reading the latest wanted poster, and Vice Admiral Tsuru was holding a teacup, looking at him with a smile and nodding at him.

"It's convenient, just tell me."

Basically all the senior members of the navy were in the room, and there was no problem that they couldn't hear, well, except for Robin's matter.

"Okay, then I'll ask directly, Kuzan, I want to know what happened in the South Sea Star Islands twelve years ago."

Remos didn't think too much and asked immediately.

This statement came out.

Kasaski turned his head and looked over. Borsalino put down the bounty order, and even Marshal Zhan Guo raised his head.

Needless to say, Garp continued to eat his senbei happily.

Vice Admiral Tsuru's smile became even kinder, she took a sip of her tea, her eyes fixed on Kuzan.

Kuzan felt his scalp tingling and thought to himself that he had been careless. It was too late to complain about the inconvenience now.

"I knew it was always bad news when you called me. I guess I'll have to change my Den Den Mushi next time."

"Don't change the subject, Kuzan. I already know. You were the commander sent by the navy to handle this matter at the time. You know everything that happened that night."

Remus' voice continued.

"But what does this have to do with you?"

Kuzan asked back.

"If there was a swordsman from Wano Country that night, then this matter has something to do with me because he is Mei's father!"

Remus said with a serious expression.

There was silence in the office. Kuzan stared at the Den Den Mushi silently. After a long time, he sighed.

"So there is such a coincidence? Yes, there was indeed a swordsman that night."

"We have now found the place where they fought last, and we have also seen the stone tablet he left behind. Kuzan, this is very important to me and Mei. As long as it does not involve the Celestial Dragons, I hope to know the whole story... If you still recognize me as your junior brother."

Remos still had some reservations after all.

If it is related to the Celestial Dragons, he does not intend to get too deeply involved for the time being. After all, he is doing quite well as a bounty hunter and does not want to be defined as a pirate by the World Government.

Garp beside him was already grinning silently, and the expressions of the others were also slightly strange.

Kuzan shook his head.

"It's related to the Celestial Dragons... but not the kind of relationship you think. Well, since you want to know, I'll tell you. This matter is related to the attack on Marijoa."

Through Kuzan's mouth, a not-so-important story that had been hidden for twelve years was presented to Remos, Nami and the girl.

Twelve years ago, Fisher Tiger attacked the holy land of Marijoa, causing a large number of slaves to escape, including some with Devil Fruit abilities.

Among them was a user with special abilities. He was originally the son of a noble from a small country in the South China Sea. Somehow he was captured by human traffickers, and then traveled all the way to the holy land of Marijoa, where he became a slave of the Celestial Dragons.

"He is the user of the Bird-Bird Fruit's Parrot Form ability. Because he can transform into a very beautiful bird, he is loved by the Celestial Dragons..."

It is known to everyone in the world that most of the Celestial Dragons only know how to eat, drink and have fun.

This person with special abilities stayed in the holy land of Marijoa for three years. No one knows what he encountered during that time. On the night when Marijoa was attacked, he took the opportunity to escape, and before leaving, he stole a precious devil fruit from the warehouse of the Celestial Dragons.

Then he flew all the way back to the South China Sea and finally landed on the Starry Island.

There he found the girl who had been with Remus, when she was still a girl.

No one knew what he was thinking at the time. Anyway, the fruit was eaten by the girl, and then the girl possessed terrible power.

“The girl’s body was very special. After eating the fruit, she lost her self-awareness and turned into a puppet. But the miraculous thing was that she would actually listen to the man’s orders. So he began to order the girl to use her abilities to spread the plague throughout the island.

Your companion's father and his companions should have a grudge against the person who stole the fruit, but I don't know what the grudge is.

In short, when I arrived at the scene, there was no living person on the island except the four of them.

After I ordered the navy on site to blockade the island, I chased them in the direction they left.

When I finally arrived at the site of their decisive battle, the battle was over.

At that time, only the girl and your companion’s father were left alive on the battlefield, but he was seriously injured and only half of his body was left…”

Kuzan agreed to Mei's father's dying request and spared the girl.

But he did not take care of the girl. Instead, he quietly left when the girl was about to wake up, leaving the girl to fend for herself on the battlefield.

Kuzan was not very clear about what happened afterwards, including the experiences of the girl who was once a child and is now a young woman over the years, which he had never cared about.

The Marshal's office was silent, and everyone was staring at Kuzan.

It was also quiet on the other side of the Den Den Mushi, and Remos was staring at the sea in a daze.

Nami felt so much pity that she wanted to hug the girl, but she didn't know if it was appropriate, so she froze there.

After a long time.

"Kuzan, I find that you are really cold-blooded sometimes. Aren't you worried that she can't survive on the island alone?"

Remus whispered.

"When I met her, she was already seven or eight years old. As long as she controlled her abilities, she could live a normal life on the island."

Kuzan said, "But now it seems to be different from what I thought."

"It's very different from what you thought."

Remos did not elaborate.

"Okay, I won't ask about the details... What are you going to do now?"

"I want to invite her on board."

This idea came a little suddenly, but that's what Remos thought.

Nami nodded repeatedly, fully agreeing with Remos' decision.

The girl didn't say anything, but just looked at Remos's back quietly.
