Of course, Caruso was not the only one to notice when Kazan and his party arrived at Caruso at night.
In fact, there are other people on the boat, such as Monet, who is the most domineering and domineering person in the world, and Willump, who is unusually energetic at night and is responsible for keeping watch.
It's just that they didn't come to disturb them. They all noticed that Kazan and his party seemed a little tired.
After the Kazan five came back, they didn't disturb everyone and quietly went back to their rooms to sleep. After all, it was already early in the morning.
During this period, Crocodile originally planned to leave directly to find Mr. 1 and Mr. 2, but Kazan forced him into the guest room, saying that he would at least greet his family tomorrow before setting off.
Of course, it was impossible for Crocodile not to refute Kazan’s wording of ‘family’.
With her character, how could she accept so easily that her life was suddenly filled with a bunch of younger brothers and sisters?
She had no feelings for those people, and even her acquaintance was extremely reluctant.
He is simply not from the same era.
Although her heart was a little complicated, Crocodile still reluctantly stayed. Only she knew what she thought.
The next morning.
Monet rushed into the kitchen early in the morning and carefully prepared today's breakfast. A family of more than ten people relied on her to support them.
Everyone knew about the return of Kazan and Fon Clay, and they were making a fuss around the deck.
As for the newcomer, the super sexy, super temperamental but somewhat fierce big sister has fully attracted the curiosity of several little guys.
However, smart and well-informed people like Tezzolo, Monet, Robin, and Reiju have vaguely guessed the true identity of the woman in front of her based on certain characteristics of her body.
The golden hook, the scar across his face, the cigar in his mouth and his iconic slicked back hair.
"...No way."
Compared to Monet and Reiju, who didn't care much, Robin obviously didn't dare to believe it.
Based on the rumors about Crocodile's character in the sea and what she learned about Crocodile's past experience...
How could this man accept being a woman?!
Tezzolo also looked at each other a few times with the two men around him, Mr. Tanaka and Baccarat, who were also aware of Crocodile's identity, and both noticed the incredulity in each other's eyes.
None of them knew that Crocodile was a woman from the beginning.
After all, not to mention that this happened in the last century, and basically most of the people who knew about it were slaughtered.
There are probably no more than one hand in the world who still know about this matter.
As for the other people who are paying attention to Crocodile, such as Bellamy and Akin.
What they care about is Crocodile's strength.
Although the opponent is a woman and has not yet shown her true combat power, their long-term combat experience and intuition tell them that this woman is very strong.
Probably stronger than them.
This also means that the total combat effectiveness of their monster family will be greatly improved, and the eldest brother finally has a strong man worthy of his current level and status.
This was a good thing, but it made them feel a little less happy.
A little bit unwilling.
Kazan was not in a hurry to introduce Crocodile to everyone. He just said, "This is our new family." He didn't say any more and instead gave it away.
However, he didn't hold it back for long, and he already told everyone his true identity at the dinner table.
"This guy is actually one of the original Shichibukai, the 'King of the Desert', Sand Crocodile."
Kazan picked up a piece of fried dinosaur egg with his fork, and pointed at Crocodile beside him with his other hand. This seat originally belonged to Monet, and it was still vacant even if Monet was not ready to serve it.
On the other side is Von Klay, and this position will always be Von Klay's.
This is something everyone in the monster family agrees to, and only Kazan himself doesn't care about it.
Monet did not serve the table, but stood silently in the kitchen continuing the unfinished cooking while staring at Crocodile and listening to Kazan's introduction.
"Nani?!"xn
Not everyone was surprised, but there were a few who were, such as Bellamy and Akin.
The two of them had no idea that this woman turned out to be Crocodile. After hearing Kazan's introduction, they discovered that although the current female Crocodile was dressed completely differently, she did have many of the same characteristics as before.
"You can just call her Sister Sha. You can also call her Xiao Sha."
"...don't call me."
Crocodile raised her eyebrows, she didn't want to accept these two titles.
"Well... although I plan to let Xiaosha stay and get acquainted with everyone, she still has to find her former companions, so the matter of cultivating feelings has to be postponed for now. As long as everyone knows that we have more
It would be nice to have such a family."
Kazan smiled. Under normal circumstances, he might have patted Crocodile twice now.
But it won't work now. Kazan can't treat Crocodile as heartlessly as before.
After all, Crocodile is a woman now, and she is wearing very revealing clothes, so she might end up taking pictures in places she shouldn’t.
"I never said I wanted to join the monster family."
Crocodile curled her lips and looked a little dark. Unfortunately, she could only speak harshly.
Regardless of what she thinks in her heart, just looking at the difference in strength between her and Kazan, she has no capital to refute this.
Crocodile did not expect that Kazan's strength has reached such a level now. Even if she has not fought before, she can still notice that Kazan's current strength may have reached the level of him and his peak.
Barrett's level at his peak.
I remember that he and Barrett were less than twenty years old at the time. In terms of being the earliest to achieve the 'Emperor Level' level, Kazan was actually not as good as them.
However, you can't really just look at age.
After all, the times we live in are different!
Kazan's era is, to put it nicely, the 'beginning of a new era' and 'the starting point of the age of pirates', but to put it harshly, it is simply an era of peace. There are only a few powerful ones on the sea, and at least half of them are
They are all old monsters left over from the previous era.
The era that he and Barrett lived in at that time was a perverted era where monsters were prevalent and heroes emerged.
Among the pirates, there are Rocks, Golden Lion, Roger, Whitebeard and other super strong men who are at the top of the world. Even the lower echelons are big mom, Kaido, Rayleigh, Oden, Jabba, Wang Zhi, John
and so on.
In the navy, Garp, Zefa, Sengoku, He, Cyborg Kong and a large group of old marines who have yet to be seen are stationed.
That era was far from being comparable to today's era. In that environment, any slow progress would be fatal.
If Kazan were placed in that era, his name would definitely be on par with these top powerhouses at such a young age.
However, in this era, Kazan's current achievements can be considered very dazzling.
Among all the 'Kings of the Sea' who are still alive, Kazan should be the youngest.
"Okay Xiaosha, let's hit the road after dinner. We are also going to Dressrosa. Let's meet there then. We will be waiting for you."
"Don't wait for me, I won't come."
Kazan didn't care how tough Crocodile was, he sent her away with a group of younger brothers and sisters after breakfast.
After confirming that they had sufficient supplies, they set off towards Dressrosa in the direction Perona pointed.
Caruso also set sail once again, sailing on the dangerous seas of the New World.
In the library, Robin specially called Kazan and Tezzolo.
"What's up Robin?"
"Nisan, the island of Dressrosa is not simple. Don't focus all your attention on Doflamingo. Brother Tezoro should know something about Dressrosa."
Robin pulled out a few books from the bookshelf in the library and flipped out a few pieces of paper.
The content on the paper seemed to be translated bit by bit by Robin comparing ancient books one by one.
"Of course, an island with such a high value should be paid more attention to. As expected of Don Quixote who clings to his share of the underground world, he actually developed Dressrosa into a tourist attraction in the new world."
Although his mouth seemed to be full of compliments, the expression on Tezzolo's face was full of ridicule.
Because these things will soon become the wedding dresses of their monster family. With Dressrosa's geographical location in the New World, it is almost impossible for Tezolo to let go of this island.
"It's not just that simple, Dressrosa... This island seems to have been the territory of the Celestial Dragons nine hundred years ago, and there seems to be some relatively mysterious races on it, the little humans."
Because this part of the content did not belong to the "Blank Hundred Years", Robin discovered this matter.
"Oh? I didn't know there was such a thing."
Tezoro raised his head. He had heard some rumors about the small human race, but he didn't know about the previous ones.
After learning about this incident, Dressrosa's value in Tezzolo's heart changed slightly.
The commercial value has not improved, but Dressrosa has become the territory that Tezzolo must win.
He wants to turn the former territory of the Tianlong people into the territory of their monster family!
"There may be some things and information hidden on Dressrosa that are related to the history of eight hundred years ago. I hope that Brother Tezzoluo and others can help use the dark power of the family to collect some news and legends in this regard."
"No problem, it just so happens that the collection of Devil Fruits can also be dealt with there. Kazan, we have to stay in Dressrosa for a while to wait for Crocodile, right?"
"Well, that's right."
Kazan nodded.
He has already told Tezolo, the leader of the dark forces of the monster family, about the Devil Fruits that may escape from Impel, and the latter also takes this matter more seriously.
"If this is the case, then there will be a lot of time. I can plan this matter carefully with Gaji and Umit."
Tezzolo nodded, already knowing many things in his mind.
"And Nissan, there is one thing you have to think about carefully, and that is the conflict between Bellamy and Doflamingo."
Robin's expression was a little complicated.
Although Doflamingo had helped their monster family in the Chambord Islands, Bellamy's feud with Doflamingo when he was young was real and unresolved.
Doflamingo personally manipulated Bellamy to kill his younger brothers, which aroused Bellamy's extreme hatred for him.
It was precisely because of this incident that Bellamy later joined the monster family.
"I know, I will let Xiaobei make his own decision on this matter."
Kazan has always kept this matter in mind. He had previously said that he would go to Dressrosa to settle some 'grievances', and these grievances included the one between Bellamy and Doflamingo.
things.
"Well, then there's nothing going on for the time being. The distance between us and Dressrosa is not too far. At Caruso's speed, it will take about three or four days to arrive. Even if there is bad weather on the road, this time will definitely not be enough.
It will be more than a week.”
Robin looked at the navigation chart on the table and briefly estimated the time.
After saying this, Robin didn't have much else to do. He studied some ancient books by himself in the library.
Kazan and Tezzolo left on their own.
Come to the deck.
"Kazan."
Tezzolo looked up at the dark sky. It didn't seem like it was going to rain. Instead, it seemed like... it was going to snow.
"Um?"
Kazan glanced at Tezzolo, and then looked up to the sky with him: "Oh, it's snowing... That girl Nana should be very happy, she likes snowy days best."
"Really... I feel like the snow today is quite strange..."
"Is there any? I didn't see it."
Kazan looked blankly at the snowflakes falling on him, and didn't seem to notice any difference except that it was a little cooler.
Tezzolo shook his head and walked away. He did not continue to explain, but silently added what he had not finished in his heart: like reunion, like regret, like love that is not available.
Kazan was still looking at the snowflakes in the sky, as if he wanted to see what was different.
In the observation deck at the top of Carosso, Monet stood quietly by the railing, looking down at the tall and clumsy figures on the deck below, and then raised his head again, staring blankly.
