Without the song, Constance was also slightly sluggish, and her inexplicably rising aura was falling crazily.

“This guy…”

Just as he looked up at Kuro and did not even react, he saw Kuro extend his finger and the gathered air mass condensed into a small point on his fingertip. As he smiled gently, the air mass flew straight towards him.

Constance’s pupils shrank and she wanted to dodge, but she felt that her physical strength had decreased and it was not as smooth as before…

Oh no, I haven’t recovered from the battle just now!

Helpless, Constance crossed her arms and her Haki appeared, directly blocking the air mass that flew over.

Boom!!

The ball of air exploded from his arm and turned into a chaotic airflow that expanded around him. The ground under Constance’s feet was swept away by this airflow, forming a semicircular depression.

Constance groaned and took a step back, barely stabilizing herself. She turned around and shouted, “Lord Red, while I’m holding him back, you go first and think of a way later…”

Tsk.

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a soft sound in his ear. Constance turned around in a daze and saw that a black blade had penetrated his chest, and his blood was flowing down from the blade.

Kuro appeared in front of him, holding a black saber and smiling, “Don’t be distracted, fighting with me, I think you don’t respect me.”

From his experience and combat skills, this old man was probably a top figure when he was young. He might have escaped from the sixth floor.

But he was old after all. It was already good enough that he could maintain such intensity in a powerless state.

However, this person’s mind is not on the battle. If it is like the existence of the Grillon No. 1 that he has encountered before, Kuro now has a chance to fight.

Because he can only use Autumn Water, and Luo Gui… can’t use it for the time being.

His mind was not on the battle and he was easily distracted. Kuro would not let go of this opportunity.

Chi!

Kuro twisted Autumn Water and threw his ability from the blade, rolling up a large number of wind blades in it, making Constance’s body shake. Only then did he pull out the blade and swing it to the side, throwing out the blood.

“You are really…”

Constance shook her body and shook her head with a bitter smile. “No mercy at all. The people of the previous generation are different from you. Whether it is Sengoku, Karp, or Zephyr, they will not attack in this situation.”

“Ah… that’s why you old men are still floating on the sea.”

Kuro said without hesitation, “Maybe I will be stupid when I am old, but now I am different. I am straightforward.”

“Wow!”

Constance held her chest and opened her mouth to spit out a large mass of blood. Her body continued to sway as if she was about to fall. “Young people are so powerful… But you work so hard for the World Government, be careful of accidents. You have already… reached the edge.”

Kuro blew out a cloud of smoke indifferently. “You’re about to die and you still want to scare me? As expected of an old man…”

“Hehehe…”

Constance chuckled a few times, then slowly turned around and looked at Red, who had fallen into panic and sadness. She slowly reached out and opened her fingers to Red and murmured, “Actually… I know everything.”

Kuro raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Constance continued, “Four years ago, when I escaped from Impel Down, I thought that I would just find a place to live my life in peace. If I could take in a disciple and pass on my martial strength, it would actually be quite good… But I met Lady Red and I was fascinated by her ideal world.”

“Ah? That kind of fantasy?” Kuro snorted.

“Sure enough, you know everything. You learned it from Headquarters, so you should also know the real identity of Lord Red. Yes, she is the Moon Clan, the Moon Clan that can get 100 million Berries as long as there is intelligence.”

Constance said softly, “I am already old and can no longer change the world, so I only want to be satisfied in the spiritual world. Lady Red has an ideal. She wants everyone to be satisfied. This, whether right or wrong, is good. There is nothing practical or not. At least we have obtained happiness and satisfaction, even if…”

“That’s fake, I know it’s fake, but so what if it’s fake? After all, the world is fake, it’s all fake under the lies of the World Government, so why not choose fake ones like us!”

Constance turned to Kuro with a strange smile in her eyes.

“Do you think you’re stable? Kim Jung, no, you don’t know that once an existence like you is slightly out of the control of the World Government, they will be worried and they will be afraid. Even if you condescend to be a dog for tenryubito, you will not live long. You are too dazzling. You are not like Kizaru, he knows what it means to protect himself. You are not like Kuzan, he is lazy and does not fight for anything. You are even less like Akainu, because he will also listen to the orders of the World Government, but you will not… Kid, I can see that you will not!”

“Once you turn your back on the justice in your heart, you are a person who doesn’t care about anything. I can feel the fire in your heart. Although I don’t know why it is sealed, the fragile flammable existence can’t contain the fire. You can’t limit your thoughts for the rest of your life. Sooner or later, you will go against the World Government, but your threat is greater than Zephyra. They won’t leave you alone. No, no…”

After Constance finished speaking, her body slowly bent and she finally knelt on the ground, murmuring her previous words and gradually became silent.

His aura also gradually disappeared.

Kuro stared at him for a long time and finally shook his head and said, “What do you know!”

Otherwise, this guy would find a way to bewitch him and try to shake his mind before he died.

How could he not know his own nature?

This old man is like a fortune-teller, relying on his ability to read people to say something that is neither true nor false. I don’t believe that he doesn’t have any influence. It would be bad if he believes it.

If Kuro was shaken because of this, why would he still be a Marine? He would have joined the Revolutionary Army back then.

“The world… It’s really too real, so sometimes there’s nothing I can do. There’s nothing wrong with indulging in fantasy. I didn’t say anything, but if you insist on provoking me, then I won’t accept it.”

Kuro took one last look at Constance and turned to look at the woman from the Moon Clan.

“What about you? Are you going to die here, or are you going to be caught by me and sent back to Mary Joa?”

He spat out the tip of the cigar and said angrily, “Why did you have to come to my place? If you didn’t come, I would have pretended that I didn’t see you. It’s fine as long as you are dead. Once you came, you are very Muggle now. I have to send you away, little girl… Well, maybe you are older than me.”
