Chapter 293: Descent into the Deep
Soon after, Dragon left.
Xia Qi also returned to the bar.
"That guy actually came to see you," Xia Qi said with a hint of surprise in her voice.
She wasn't surprised that the Revolutionary Army would seek pirates for cooperation. What surprised her was that they had come to Mio. But after a moment's thought, it made sense. The strength of the Black Crow was immense. In the eyes of those who were unaware, they might think Black Crow was merely on par with Kaido and Charlotte Linlin. But those who knew the truth understood just how deep and terrifying the power of Black Crow truly was.
Among the powerful pirates of the New World, Whitebeard would never ally with the Revolutionary Army. After all, everyone on the sea knew about his ties with that man. A partnership with the Revolutionary Army would only throw his sons into the fire.
Kaido and Charlotte Linlin could be considered, but with their volatile personalities, any cooperation would likely place the Revolutionary Army in even greater danger. Moreover, both were known to slaughter civilians without hesitation, regardless of necessity.
Black Crow was different. While he too would attack civilians, it was only when necessary.
And anyone who truly understood knew—Black Crow was more terrifying than either Kaido or Charlotte.
What truly set Black Crow apart was his terrifying potential.
"But cooperating with the Revolutionary Army is extremely dangerous," Xia Qi warned casually.
"I know," Mio replied calmly, gently swirling the wine in his glass. "But there's no helping it. Black Crow may be pirates, but I don't intend to stay a pirate forever, waiting for the Navy or World Government to eventually come arrest me."
