27 Black Sea.

Meanwhile, at a marine headquarters, several higher ups were discussing plans about how to deal with rising stars among the Pirates.

"I think Plan Z is ready to be employed, we only need his confirmation for us to start it."

One of them gave a suggestion, the others quickly denied it.

"It's too dangerous, we could potentially play with death, there is a low chance of it succeeding, instead we could be killed."

The marines could afford a lot of deaths, but total decimation was not something they wanted to play with around.

After nine years the total number of marines had risen to thirty million,exploding after the sixth month.Now they could sent more soldiers in the islands and even more Avengers who reached an exploding number of a hundred million people!

But the pirates were even more with an unknown number.No matter how many people the marine had,the pirates were even more. Thus the marines were having a lot of trouble keeping out every pirate from the Grand Line and other places.

In the boundless sea,a huge ship was moving.It was the Shirokuro pirate's ship.A huge ship enough to fill a hundred people easily."Miru,when will the food be ready…"Kuro was muttering."Wait a bit,It will be ready in two minutes" Miru replied in a shout from the kitchen.

"Two minutes?!"Kuro groaned, several days had passed, they had tasted Miru's cooking daily, and realized just how heavenly it was. Kuro could swear he had never eaten a better tasting food before.

They were three days away from the Red Mountain which was also called the Red Continent.But then they'd have to face great danger.Kuro's appetite was growing each day and if not for him mastering the Greed Devil Fruit it would've been even worse.

"I got a cook,swordsman,nagivator and shipwright.The people I now need are archeologist,musician,sniper,doctor and maybe other random places like chronicler,another warrior and fisherman?"Kuro said loudly,Miru and the other heard him.

"Oi, captain. This ship might be very large, but if we give every crew mate a lot of space like now, we wouldn't really be left with much." Ketsu said with a sigh, and looked at his captain as if he was very stupid.

"The food is ready!" Miru said as the crew immediately stood up to their feet and entered the kitchen.It was around twenty to thirty meters big.Enough to hold a lot of more people.Before them was a grand table of delicious dishes.

"Captain,no I mean Kuro where are you?"Miru said," I am here"Kuro answered, the cook sweated and looked around, only to find him already seated, and eating.

"Your appetite is really to large to fully feed... Geez." Miru sighed.

About two days had passed, and the Red Mountain could be slightly seen from this distance. However, Haken was very nervous, he felt that something was not right, and he was very sure of that. Finally, after a while he slammed his hands on the wood of the ship.

"Capt, I can feel several hundred if not thousands of people nearing us every moment! They are all on Marine ships!" Haken shouted nervously and looked at his captain. Kuro sighed, was it because of his bounty, that they had come?

It was true.After all these battles,Kuro's bounty had surpassed 70.000.000 Beri.It was impossible for the marines to ignore such a powerful pirate leaving the Four Seas to enter the Grand Line, as it would give them a lot of trouble and problems.

The Vice Admral,Suwen himself updated the bounty.Suwen was a vice admiral under the command of the Fleet Admiral,Shiroyami.He was one of his intermediate tier vice admirals."It will probably take a few hours before they start firing."Kuro said."If we take a change of directions now it may take a while to enter the Grand Line again." Yuki said.

"What about using our newest weapons?" Ketsu said,"Weapons?"Kuro asked."Yes, while y'guys were busy at the cooking island, and also at the battle against the Golden Sword, I was working on several weapons for our ship, one of them is Sonic Burst, which possibly will be our way to enter the Grand Line!"

He explained what Sonic Burst is.It was a weapon which raised the speed of the ship for a certain amount of time by 500%.It was almost half the speed of the sound.When used,the back of the ship changed to a huge cannon supported by two smaller cannons forward.So that the pressure doesn't destroy and smash the ship.

But it needed a lot of fuel to be activated,and that fuel was a devil fruit's power. Of course one could also use simple gas, but it would take literally so much of it, that was financially destructive to do it that way. Kuro could help with that, as he wouldn't feel that much tired if he did it.

The marines in the ships grinned, they held their weapons high, they couldn't wait to destroy this crew of pirates. They were veterans of the seas. They did not feel much pressure when going against the Shiro Kuro Pirates.

As the ship came closer and closer the marines realised.They realised that even if the pirates did nothing,they would do something.Their leader,a Commander was furious,even he felt a bit annoyed,"ATTACK!SHOOT!"He roared.

The ships cannon's started to shot at the ship.

"Two Cuts,Of the Earth!"Haken muttered as he swung his sword once,unleashing two cuts which looked like they rose from the earth.The cannon balls were cut in two."Unleash the cannons!"The marines got ready for a cannon attack.But yet again they were cut in two by Haken.

"Dark Hole!" Kuro roared as he waved his hand in the air, and suddenly the sea started to shake, the marines looked down at the water, and saw it was getting darker and darker...

"Envelope." Kuro said with a dark face. This was the day of judgement for those marines.

They never saw the end of the day.
