Chapter 289
You Are Quite Heroic
Bang!
The flying boulder landed on the beach. Not long after it landed, the stone lump exploded and the gravel fell into the sea, stirring up spots of water.
“Hernando!!”
Zephyra’s furious figure appeared on the beach and was about to run towards the cave when he suddenly froze.
This beach was a camp. The bonfire was still burning, but it was already a mess.
The pirates were all lying nearby with bloody holes between their eyebrows or in their hearts. Their mouths were wide open and their eyes were open, as if they did not expect to die.
“They’re all dead, that little Kuro…”
Zephyr gradually calmed down and looked at the dead people in silence.
Previously, he was wrapped by the stone wall that was suddenly lifted. Only Lucilu Kuro, who ate the “Floating Fruit”, could do this.
“Old man Zephyr.”
Kuro’s voice appeared from above and landed, “We are a little lucky, the pirates who harassed my station are gone.”
“Kuro, didn’t I say that there is no need for anyone to follow us?” Zephyr glanced at him and said.
Kuro took out a cigar and lit it. He put it in his mouth and said:
“I am not your subordinate. As the chief of Pegasus Island Base, although I have just taken office, I have to do my duty. After all, I am also a Marine.”
“Why do you want to do this?” Zephyra asked. “Hernando is my disciple. I have the ability to deal with him, or are you looking down on me?”
“I don’t dare, I just think…”
Kuro looked straight at him and slowly exhaled the smoke. “Heroes don’t kill people.”
“Kuro little ghost…”
Zephyra fell silent again. After a while, he turned around and walked out. “Let’s go. I’m tired and I need to go back and rest.”
He walked forward and paused again. “Please do something. Don’t tell anyone about this.”
‘Keep it quiet?’
What a good thing!
Kuro was still thinking about how to make Zephyra not report him… No, not mention the credit to him. If he didn’t say anything, it would suit him.
“Don’t worry, I used to be known in East Blue as the Little Marine Prince who doesn’t cheat people. I won’t say this kind of thing.” Kuro gave a thumbs up.
Of course, Kuro guarantees this with his character. He will do whatever he says. If he says that he will kill someone today, he will never delay it until the next day.
“Thanks.”
From Zephyra’s back came a very soft voice.
Kuro understood that he was thanking not only for keeping this matter a secret, but also for not letting Zephyra kill Fernando.
Zephyra is not a hero. He is a man who pursues the path of a hero. He is also the one who has reached the forefront of this path, so the people behind him will think of him as a hero.
In Kuro’s eyes, those who can tolerate others are heroes.
Zephyra is a hero. As for a hero, unless he wants to change, he will help if he can.
After all, he had taught him just now and taught the old man a long time ago.
“Then, let’s clean up the garbage.”
Kuro slapped his palm on the ground.
Rumble…
With a sound, the seawater rolled up and the entire island turned over in the seawater as if it was washing something. After stirring a few times, it rose up and was sent to the sky.
Island Collection +1.
After doing all this, Kuro nodded in satisfaction and flew forward, landing on the Battleship in front of him.
At this time, Zephyr had just boarded the Battleship through a small boat. He glanced at Kuro and said, “Ability users are really convenient.”
“Old man, if you are envious, you should be able to get it.” Kuro said.
“I don’t need it.”
Zephyra glanced at her robotic arm. “This thing can let me deal with you metahumans.”
Provided that you can touch it.
Kuro pursed his lips in his heart.
Who the hell would hit you for no reason? You old man are a strong individual technique user. You are both annoying and durable.
‘Huh?’
‘In the future?’
What does the future have to do with him? He’s not going to the New World. Out of sight, out of mind.
The Battleship returned to Pegasus Town. After a short rest, Marine had gone to clean up the pirates on the island.
Leda stayed in town to prevent any accidents.
When Kuro returned, Leda had a sad face and was carrying her small backpack, lamenting.
Seeing this scene, Kuro’s heart skipped a beat. He walked up in three steps and said, “Are you serious? Something happened in the bag again?”
He killed two metahumans, and this is so strange. The bag is producing fruits again?
Lida nodded and said aggrievedly, “Those people have nothing to eat. I gave the snacks in my bag to those children. It’s not good to be hungry, but I have no snacks…”
These words made Kuro heave a sigh of relief. He gave Leda’s head a tap and said, “It’s just no snacks. Don’t make it sound like you got a fruit!”
This is not a good thing. Although Kuro is not afraid, if someone notices this thing, what if they target Leda’s backpack?
Although he did not believe in metaphysics, he did not want others to think about him. That would be troublesome.
“But if the snacks are gone, I will be hungry…” Leda muttered.
“Hungry? Little girl, it’s okay, I have a lot of food on the ship. Hey, go to the ship and get something for this little girl to eat.”
Zephyra said to the Marines who stayed behind.
“Yes!”
The Marine saluted and ran to the Battleship.
“Really?”
Leda widened her eyes and said happily, “Grandpa Zephyr, can I eat my fill?”
“Grandpa…”
Zephyra was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly softened as she touched Leda’s head.
Leda instinctively wanted to retreat, but looking at him, she suddenly stopped and let Zephyra touch her head.
“Rare white hair. Your name is Leda, right? So cute.” Zephyra said with a smile, “Don’t worry, you will be full.”
This made Kuro’s expression strange.
“Hey, Kuro, why are you pulling a long face? It’s just eating. You won’t starve this child forever, right?” Zephyr looked at Kuro and said jokingly.
You’re damn right!
But she was half right. When Leda was in Headquarters or found a town where she could eat, she would not be hungry.
But in this kind of voyage, there will always be a time to starve.
Especially in this situation, when the Battleship sent them here, there were not many supplies left because the newly assigned Marine Base will bring supplies tomorrow.
Now, of course, he was hungry.
“I am exclaiming that you are really very heroic, old man Zephyra.” Kuro sincerely praised.
“?”
Zephyra was confused.
It’s just a meal. How is it very heroic? Is he mocking me?
This little Kuro!
Soon, Zephyra understood why he said he was very heroic.
At first, it was just storage food in a Battleship to fill Leda’s stomach. After all, she was a little girl and she couldn’t eat much.
Then, they felt that the convenient food in the warehouse didn’t seem to be enough for Leda, so they called the Marine chef and made some delicious food.
Then, several chefs on the ship felt a little exhausted, so another ship of chefs came and continued to serve Leda.
Then, there were the three Battleships’ cooks…
With every additional ship, Zephyr’s face changed a little, until now, it was almost dark.
What did he just say?
Let this kid eat his fill?
I do seem to be quite heroic.
“You can eat so much, are you from the Luo family of Kano Country?” Zephyr gritted his teeth and said.
