Chapter 1206: Here Comes Someone Even Stronger
"Kuzan?"
Nekomamushi and Canine Storm both stiffened in shock. Canine Storm's pupils trembled as he said, "I know that name—he's not the Admiral, is he?"
"The Admiral?!" Others widened their eyes.
If he was an Admiral, didn't that mean he was on the same level as that golden light-shining guy?!
"Not an Admiral anymore—he resigned from the Navy. But—"
Izou locked his gaze on Kuzan, his body taut as a bowstring.
"He's still the enemy."
Though Kuzan had left the Navy, Izou had no illusions about him showing mercy. During the 【Battle of Finality】, this guy had sided with Marshall D. Teach!
Because of him, the Whitebeard Pirates had been utterly crushed, allowing Teach to devour their father's territory unchallenged.
A cold wind swept in from the Shallow Beach, making everyone shiver involuntarily. They watched the tall, slender man raise his hand. His palm exuded an icy aura so piercing that all instinctively tensed, ready for battle.
Kuzan scratched his head and said casually, "Ah, no need to be so tense. I mean no harm—I just want to ask how to get to the Flower Capital."
"You're going to the Flower Capital to find Kuro?!" Izou shot back.
"Ara ara, didn't realize we were old acquaintances. Long time no see, Izou."
Kuzan waved a greeting, then repeated, "So... how do I get to the Flower Capital?"
The group fell silent. They didn't want to tell Kuzan—the man might've resigned from the Navy, but he'd never turn against them. Rumor had it he still had close ties to the Golden Lion. If he reached the Flower Capital, their situation would become even more dire.
But hiding the information was pointless anyway—he'd easily find someone else to ask.
"That white mountain peak over there is the Flower Capital."
As they hesitated, Kozuki Hiyori pointed directly at the colossal sky-piercing peak behind them.
"Princess!"
Denjiro barked in frustration, "Why would you say that at a time like this?!"
"Huh? Not acceptable? He just asked for directions." Kozuki Hiyori tilted her head innocently.
"Ahh, thanks."
Kuzan nodded, then ignoring their glares, soared past them(End of Chapter)
