One Piece: Trying 200 times harder, but being too overbearing.

The Sirob family!

They not only sponsored the Funky dance competition, but also had a private luxury ship, and were personally received by the mayor of Glass Pearl Island.

Such a wealthy man would actually live in an ordinary village, and coincidentally, Syrup Village is located in the territory of the Black Cat Pirates.

There is no more suitable goal than this.

After pulling off this job, they can live a carefree life for at least a year.

"How pitiful. They clearly possess countless riches, yet both husband and wife are sickly and look like they won't live for more than a few years. Their only daughter is also thin and weak."

"If I could marry their daughter, wouldn't that be like rising to the top in one step?"

"It's a pity, they're about to be finished."

Zango spoke eloquently, seemingly already envisioning the scene of the Syrup family being razed to the ground by the Black Cat Pirates.

He does not mean that.

Kro's pupils contracted, and an overwhelming sense of joy welled up inside him. Wasn't this exactly the way he had been hoping to clear his name?

After infiltrating the Sirob family and gaining their trust, he could cause the Sirob couple to "die unexpectedly," possibly without even having to lift a finger.

The little girl left behind, all alone and helpless, could be manipulated at will.

Of course, he had no interest in becoming a wealthy man's son-in-law; all he cared about was the other person's status and wealth.

Even little girls have to die!

Zango became more and more excited as he spoke, urging impatiently, "Captain, let's get going!"

"Not urgent."

Kro raised his hand and pushed up his glasses.

He wanted more than just wealth; he also needed stability. Letting his foolish subordinates run amok would only ruin his plans.

Not only can they not plunder the Syrup family, but they also have to prevent other pirate crews from intervening.

In addition, he must personally verify the authenticity of the plan before he can feel at ease!

"Zango, steer the ship to the waters near Xiluobu Village!"

"understand!"

-

On the other side, there's Glass Bead Island.

After a wonderful two-week trip, Keya was satisfied but also felt deeply exhausted. She preferred a quieter life to the excitement outside.

She was homesick.

The Silobu returned to port.

Inside the cabin, Loya hung up the Den Den Mushi (a type of telephone) that was supposed to be in contact with the branch office, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally felt relieved after being on edge for half a month.

Finbuddy immediately came over.

"How about it?"

"Stable!"

Loya laughed.

"By the way, Finbdy, how did you convince Colonel Rhodes?"

"hey-hey."

Finnbudy was somewhat smug.

"I stood on the rooftop all day!"

"."

Loya remained silent for a while, then silently gave a thumbs up.

Branch 153, Operations Conference Room.

All branch officers and captains assembled.

Nautical charts are hung on the wall, with more than a dozen surveillance locations marked on nearby islands, centered on the island where Xiluobu Village is located.

"Lieutenant Lipa, you are responsible for guarding the eastern coast of Xiluobu Village!"

"Sergeant Monka, you're in charge."

Colonel Rhodes was assigning tasks.

Previously, Finbuddy brought back three members of the Black Cat Pirates, and from them, he learned about the Black Cat Pirates' rendezvous point.

Although they couldn't defeat Kuro with this, it wasn't entirely useless. The surveillance ship they dispatched tracked the small boat that made the rendezvous and eventually confirmed the direction the Black Cat Pirates had left in.

Judging from the flight path, the Black Cat Pirates are most likely heading to Syrup Village, which gives Colonel Rod more confidence in Loa's plan.

"Listen carefully, monitor the waters near Syrup Village 24 hours a day. Report to me immediately if you spot the Black Cat Pirates!"

"understand!"

The officers' eyes were menacing.

Not only did they fight pirates, but the Black Cat Pirates also killed a large number of Marines from the 153rd Branch, a bloody act of hatred.

No one will forget the crushing defeat six months ago!

End of the meeting.

Colonel Rhodes came to the rooftop and looked towards the direction of Xirob Village.

"That kid should be here soon."

A smile spread across Rod's face.

He was quite shocked when he first learned about Loya's "plan to eliminate the Black Cat Pirates" from Finbuddy.

This cannot be described as mere fantasy.

This is utter nonsense.

He couldn't possibly gamble the safety of the entire branch with just one plan. Even if it turned out to be a farce, the manpower and resources invested by the branch would be an unbearable cost.

However, under Finbdi's "threat," he reluctantly agreed to wait and see and made some preparations, thinking that they might come in handy when he attacked Kro later.

It wasn't until Loya and F.F.B.D. actually captured the hypnotist Zango that he truly took Loya's plan seriously.

Loya's single-handedly annihilating the Tulip Pirates was like a shot in the arm for him. That kid is more promising than him and will definitely become a pillar of the 153rd branch in the future, or even go further!

He decided to go "crazy" with Loya!

Chapter 26 "A Hundred Plans" by Kro!

Night falls.

In the waters south of Xiluobu Village, the Baiji·Bulaku rose and fell on the sea, and the crew members were all asleep.

In the captain's cabin, Crowe flipped through a book until all the noise outside had disappeared, leaving only the snoring of the crew, before he got up.

Silently, without alerting anyone.

Under the dim moonlight, Cloth rowed his small boat toward the island.

Before carrying out the plan, he would not let his subordinates know his purpose, and he planned to kill all his subordinates in the future to ensure that "Kro" was truly dead.

Caution is his motto!

However, he was unaware that his actions had already been detected by the 153rd branch.

The Sirob family estate.

Within the "world" space, shouts of battle rose and fell as more than a dozen pirates, wielding swords, fiercely surrounded and attacked Loya.

Strangely, Loya did not retaliate at all, but instead focused on dodging and parrying the swords and blades coming from all directions.

His robust body was already covered in bloodstains.

Ha~ Ha~~

Loya gasped for breath, blocking the blade in front of him with his sword. He didn't even have time to think before another sharp pain shot through his back, and blood splattered everywhere.

The excruciating pain and massive blood loss left Loya's mind blank as he watched helplessly as several blades pierced his body.

Time stops at this moment.

When Loya regained consciousness, he was back in the real world, his wounds gone, but the feeling of hunger told him that he had been killed by pirates once again.

He undergoes combat training in the "world." If he suffers a fatal injury, the world will immediately stop operating, allowing him to recover from his fatigue and pain before kicking him out.

"not enough."

Loya went to the table, picked up the meat that had been prepared, and ate it all up in a hurry to regain his strength.

He was training his survival skills.

According to his memories and the branch's intelligence, Kro's strongest move is called "Silent Step," an extremely fast movement technique that can kill enemies silently.

At his current level, even defeating Monka would be extremely difficult, let alone Kro. So all he can do is improve his reaction speed when facing danger as much as possible.
