Chapter 208: Shadows Stir in the New World
Although it was just a crow, everyone had witnessed its terrifying power just now. It had managed to injure Pokken—a feat unimaginable for most. Its strength was clearly among the top in the New World. None of them were a match for it.
"Too strong... as expected of the Black Crow Pirates. Lord Hei, and even Hei Er, are shockingly powerful," Araki said excitedly. He had originally planned to call the crow something else, but upon seeing Hei Er's piercing gaze, he quickly recalled the name Mio had just used.
"Hahaha! Looks like I didn't choose the wrong boss," Katsumata Wuliu laughed heartily.
They were just like Trebol, who had followed Doflamingo because of his Conqueror's Haki. If they couldn't seize the throne themselves, then they would place their ambitions on someone who could—someone like Mio. If Mio ascended the throne, it would be as if their own ambitions had been fulfilled.
And now, after seeing the strength of the Black Crow Pirates, Katsumata Wuliu was convinced—there was definitely a seat for Black Crow at the table of kings in the New World.
In the future, they could stand as equals with Whitebeard, perhaps even surpass him.
"Lord Black Crow, what should we do now?" Katsumata Wuliu asked respectfully, turning to face Mio.
Mio's eyes sparkled as he gently stroked Hei Er's head and grinned. "I need... a Devil Fruit."
"Hehe." Araki grinned bloodthirstily. "Understood, Lord Black Crow. Please return to the ship and wait. I will help you get what you want."
"Hahahaha! After all, I'm a pirate!" Katsumata Wuliu laughed wildly before turning to leave.
There were many people selling Devil Fruits on this island.
