“Oh, Lord Krota, please wait a moment, I will go call our boss immediately.”
The manager was a middle-aged man dressed in a suit.
Seeing the man in the lead, he clearly recognized him, so he quickly said a few polite words before instructing a waiter to fetch the boss to resolve the issue personally, as this situation had already exceeded what he could handle.
Krota and his group swaggered over and occupied two tables, arrogantly saying, “Cut the crap, bring our brothers two tables of good wine and food first.
You can’t expect us to just sit here waiting.”
“Alright, no problem, please wait a moment.”
The manager immediately instructed the waiter to serve these bullies.
As long as they didn’t cause trouble, smash things, or hurt anyone, a little bit of food wasn’t too great a loss.
“Hehehehe, this really is a good gig.”
“Of course, how could things be bad when following Big Brother Krota?”
“Our big brother works for Colonel Nezumi of the Navy Branch.
He can’t handle this protection money collection work personally, but after we pay our tribute, there’s still plenty left over.”
The thugs chatted idly.
It was precisely because everyone knew they worked for the Marine Colonel that no one dared to provoke them.
Even if someone reported them, it would be useless.
Not to mention whether the report could be sent up, even if the Headquarters knew, since Colonel Nezumi didn’t handle it personally, he could easily find a scapegoat to brush it off.
But the retaliation that would follow from Colonel Nezumi was not something ordinary people like them could withstand.
“Hey, boss, look at that young lady over there, she looks quite pretty.”
A sharp-eyed lackey glanced around and saw Kazi and Makino sitting on the side.
Krota looked in the direction the lackey pointed, and sure enough, she was a beauty.
“Hahahaha, it seems my luck is really good today.”
“I’ll credit you for this, kid.”
“Hehehe, thank you, Boss Krota.”
Krota got up and came to Kazi’s table.
His eyes were entirely fixed on Makino; he didn’t even notice Kazi sitting beside her.
“Yo, beauty, all alone…”
Before Krota could finish his sentence, Kazi backhanded a flick, and the fork used for eating pierced straight through Krota’s throat.
Krota desperately clutched his neck, pointing at Kazi with his other hand, his eyes wide open, unable to utter a single word.
Thud!
Krota fell to the ground to meet his ancestors, and the group of lackeys who had been stunned just now finally reacted.
“Murder!!”
The other customers in the shop saw this scene and decisively chose to run away.
Even the manager and waiters nearby didn’t dare to approach, hurriedly hiding to the side.
“You bastard, how dare you kill Boss Krota, you’re dead meat.”
“That’s right, we work for Colonel Nezumi of the Navy Branch, just wait for death.”
The dozen or so people threatened Kazi, but none of them dared to make a move.
Kazi’s move just now was too fast; they hadn’t seen it clearly at all.
Even with their butts, they could tell that the opponent’s strength was far greater than theirs.
A clever lackey had already taken out a den den mushi to call the Navy Branch; this arrogant bastard must pay the price.
Kazi did not stop the lackey making the call, glanced back, and extended a finger.
“Space Pistol!”
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~
Kazi compressed the space at his fingertip into a small ball and fired it a dozen times in succession, and everyone except the lackey making the call fell to the ground in response.
Each person had the same feature: a hole was opened in the position of their heart; they were dead as can be.
“So noisy.”
There were spare utensils nearby, and Kazi continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
The last thug who was making the call also scrambled away, rolling and crawling.
That he was able to live was, of course, because Kazi intentionally let him go; he still needed that thug to lead the way for Colonel Nezumi.
Makino knew Kazi’s strength and wasn’t too worried.
“This, this customer.”
“You should leave quickly, too.
Colonel Nezumi is about to bring people over.
If you don’t leave now, it will be too late.”
The manager ran over in a panic, intending to get Kazi to leave immediately.
That way, it would be better for both Kazi and their restaurant.
If Kazi didn’t leave, he would be killed by Colonel Nezumi, and if their restaurant served as the battlefield, it would probably suffer heavy losses.
“Thank you for your kindness, I will leave after I finish eating.”
Kazi replied and continued to bury his head in his meal, leaving the dumbfounded manager in a mess by himself.
He didn’t expect this young man to be so fearless.
He had already warned him, yet the other party wouldn’t leave; he probably had some skills.
The other party killed without hesitation; clearly, he was a ruthless character he couldn’t afford to offend, so the manager didn’t dare to say much more.
If he kept reminding him and the other party got unhappy, what would he do if he were sent underground to meet his ancestors?
Taking a step back, even if a fight really broke out in the restaurant, he was only the manager.
The one who would suffer heavy losses was the boss.
At most, he would lose his job, which was still better than losing his life.
Shaking his head, the manager took his people and hid in the kitchen, leaving this place for them to do as they pleased.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, who on earth is so bold as to cause trouble on my turf?”
Half an hour passed, and Colonel Nezumi finally arrived with a large group of Marines.
Kazi had just finished eating; he couldn’t help it, he ate too much, so it took a little longer.
Colonel Nezumi pushed the door open and entered, followed by dozens of armed Marine soldiers, each holding their guns and aiming at Kazi’s direction.
“Bastard, are you the one who killed Krota?”
Kazi took a sip of hot tea, then stood up and walked straight up to Colonel Nezumi.
“It seems you are the leader of this bunch of bastards.”
“Colonel Nezumi?”
Colonel Nezumi was the local tyrant here, and with plenty of soldiers present to risk their lives for him, he wasn’t panicked in the slightest.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, since you know I am a Navy Branch Colonel, you actually dared to make a move.”
“I see, you must be a villainous pirate.”
“Men, shoot him to death for me right here.”
Colonel Nezumi wanted to kill Kazi on the spot.
If he didn’t deter those civilians, others would jump out to challenge his authority in the future.
Moreover, he seized the initiative.
Regardless of the other party’s identity, he would first slap a pirate label on him.
As a Navy Colonel, wasn’t it only natural for him to exterminate pirates?
A vicious pirate brutally murdered a dozen innocent citizens in the town, and he, Colonel Nezumi, personally led a team to exterminate the pirate and safeguard the safety of the Konomi Islands.
He had even thought of the credit he would report afterwards; this was the last bit of value this bastard before him had for him.
Just as Colonel Nezumi gave the order, Kazi seized the initiative and reached out with his left hand, gripping the empty air.
“Space Strangling!”
The space on the Marines’ side seemed to be twisted into a twist; in an instant, the dozens of Marines and Colonel Nezumi were turned into paper figures, and blood splattered all over the floor.
Even the tables and chairs in the restaurant were twisted to pieces along with them.
Maybe it’s not a big deal now… maybe it will be later.
“And If you’re enjoying it, drop a Power Stone for me!”
