Katakuri opened his eyes subconsciously, he could 'see', and the Haki that could predict the future allowed him to see what happened next.
He knew Clow's trajectory, knew where Clow would appear, and knew which part of his body would be cut open.
What he saw was Kuro appearing behind him, slowly sheathing the knife, and then a large gash was cut from his right shoulder to his left waist.
Ordinarily, since he has seen it, he can avoid it. As long as he uses his ability in advance, turns into a glutinous ball and splits his body, he will not be able to cause harm to himself.
He thought so, so he did it, just...
call.
When the wind blew over his body, Katakuri had just thought of this idea. Then, as if he noticed something, he turned his head sharply and saw that Kuro had appeared behind him, keeping his attitude of drawing out the sword and raising it. posture.
Seeing him turn around to look, Quluo straightened up. Qiu Shui held a knife in his hand and began to sheath the tip of the knife.
At this time, Katakuri's chest turned into a glutinous mass and bloomed, as if he deliberately avoided such an attack, creating a gap similar to the mark left by autumn water.
Escaped?
Katakuri lowered his head and stared blankly at his chest. He wanted to say that he had escaped, and even just now, he was ready to say it.
Even if it is Jin Yang, he is not unable to resist, and he still blocks this knife... something like that.
But just when he was about to say this, he was stunned again, because he saw again, at that next moment, the look of blood bursting out of his wound, and the words of the man behind him.
"Can't you hear me?"
Behind him, Kuro dropped the autumn water into the scabbard, and it was Katakuri who repeated the words: "The soft sound of the divine wind."
laugh! !
Blood spurted out from the gap in Katakuri's deliberately exposed chest, and then his body fell forward and fell to the ground.
Qrow smacked his lips and looked back, "You, you still said my lines in the end."
There was no answer, just the body rising and falling, indicating that he was still alive.
He didn't dodge Kuro's moves.
Because there is no way to escape.
Even if it can be predicted, it doesn't mean that the physical body can keep up.
Sometimes there are too many things that happen when you witness them happening and your body has no time to react. Although Katakuri has been trained for a long time, when he encounters Kuro who is even more extraordinary, it will still be too late.
Katakuri could see it, but he had no time to react because Kuro was faster and stronger.
Kuro didn't count his hand as holding back. Although he used Qiu Shui, it was a great secret in itself.
But this is Katakuri after all. Of course, it is impossible to kill him with a big secret, and it is really impossible for Kuro to kill him. He has to be a Shichibukai.
Kuro relit a cigar, inhaled and exhaled the smoke, looked at Katakuri's undulating body, and said: "I won, the past things have been wiped out, and I will be your Shichibukai, and don't be careful anymore. .”
Of course, Katakuri still didn't answer.
But Kuro doesn't care either. Such a man has a character that will keep his promises.
Kuro just bullied him and kept his promise. Otherwise, whoever wanted to duel with him would have found another way, and he might not have been included in the ranks of the Shichibukai.
But now the opportunity has come. Not only is the other party choosing, he is also choosing, whether in terms of strength or character, if he chooses the better one, he will naturally not fall over.
Ka Er and Yamato are actually good, but Yamato didn't agree, so he naturally chose Ka Er.
If you want the position of the Shichibukai, you can only defeat the original Shichibukai and take their place.
This is a rule that Kuro has set before. Although it is not stated explicitly, everyone knows it.
The Shichibukai he leads will not accept big failures. Once the failure reaches the point where it becomes news and cannot be suppressed, then the Shichibukai will be replaced.
Now that Kaji's bet has been won, the last available spot in the Shichibukai will naturally be filled, and he no longer needs to worry about the Shichibukai.
He didn't care about Katakuri lying there, and went straight to the castle tower. Crow, who had been prepared, appeared there, commanding the navy to carry Katakuri to the medical room for treatment, and started preparing for the Shichibukai along the way. Contracts.
It's still the old rules, the last route is given to Katakuri, and the passerby tax can be collected, but 20% of the total revenue must be turned over to the World Government, 15% to the Navy, and 15% to G-3.
Although he is in Wano Country, he has not lost the title of G-3 Base Commander. The current Wano Country can even be called G-3 Fortress, it is just a little bigger.
Following Mr. Clow's instructions, he briefly bandaged and treated him, and then asked Clow to take the contract with him and send him to the dive port.
There are still people waiting down there. They need to go back for treatment. Once cured, just sign the contract.
"Okay, it's almost done."
In the main hall, Kuro was holding a cigar and leaning on the recliner, "The last piece of the puzzle has been put together. The first half is watched by the Shichibukai, including the front end of the New World. It can contain many pirates. As for me, Wano Country Normally no pirates can come in this kind of environment, it’s stable!”
It can't be stable.
Kuzan hasn't come back yet. He can stop a large number of pirates by himself...
"Where's Kuzan?"
Kuro touched his chin and asked, "Cass is back, but Kuzan hasn't come back yet?"
"Mr. Clow, there is no news about Mr. Cousin yet." Clow said honestly.
That really couldn't contact him. Even as a member of the Spider Group, Crowe couldn't contact Kuzan now.
"This guy... won't just run away, right? Did he agree to find a position with me?"
Kuro rolled his eyes, but after thinking about it, he let it go. The lazy man didn't refuse, so he probably just worked part-time here.
Kuro would not think that something would happen to Kuzan. Otherwise, information about the fluctuations in the battle would have started to come in a long time ago. Now there is no movement. It is obvious that he ran away after solving the problem.
But it doesn't matter to Kuro whether there is one more or less. If he makes up his mind to stay here, nothing will happen to Wano Country. Now that the situation has stabilized, as long as the waiting time goes by, Wano Country will become more and more peaceful. will become more and more stable, and by then, Kuro himself will also become more and more stable.
He stayed here and stopped actively contacting the outside world. Even though this place is the back end of the new world, it is estimated that few people would be willing to come to such a dangerous place.
Before the Kingdom of Wano was ruled by Kaido, it was difficult for anyone to enter it. After it was ruled by Kaido, no one could enter it for twenty years. Now if it was Kuro, could he do worse than Kaido?
The country of peace is the country of peace!
From now on, his ruling territory will be placed in Wano Country.
No one can move him even an inch. He has had enough and will never leave again!
