Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 208
Don’t Throw the remaining Pirate Ship
Kuro didn’t want to leave at first because Marin Van Do had just ended the war and it was very safe. But on second thought, there is destruction everywhere now and everyone is busy with the renovation. It’s not lively at all and they can’t even go to a restaurant to drink.
Most importantly, the old man told him that after he went to Mariejois, he was going to monitor Kaido.
This made Kuro’s memory seem to recall something. Although Kaido was stopped by Akagami (Red Hair), with his personality, he might come to Headquarters to ‘commit suicide’ or something.
This place is not safe either.
He had stabbed him a few times. It would be too dangerous if Marin Vando recognized him.
In the past few days, he had already fought several consecutive battles, and they were all high-intensity battles. He really didn’t want to fight anymore. If Kaido came again, he would be dead.
Without another word, Kuro agreed to the old man’s request and set off on the ship with Leda and Crowe.
However, before setting off, he went to the Arsenal. Those damaged weapons and firearms were all thrown into the sky.
Putting these things in the furnace is also the same as putting them in the furnace. It’s better to give them to me. Anyway, the government has money, so I can just create a new batch.
This time, he did not have to hide anything. Anyway, his abilities were almost exposed. As long as he did not use them, he would send them all to the sky and continue to stock them.
After doing all this, he went to the port. As a Lieutenant Colonel, he did not have to lead a small 80-person cruise ship. Now, the Battleship he was assigned was a Battleship with 250 people, which could reach 300 people.
“Don’t you allot people?”
After boarding the Battleship, he asked Crowe to gather all the Marines on board. Kuro looked at the Marines, who were only about a hundred at most, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
“Reporting to Lieutenant Colonel Kuro!”
A captain saluted and said, “Headquarters is seriously shorthanded. Some Marines are in treatment and some have been taken away by the Vice-Admiral.”
“Okay, okay… as long as the supplies are full.”
Kuro waved his hand and glanced at these Marines. Well, more than half of them were injured and all of them were wrapped in bandages, including this Captain.
The old man gave him a group of injured soldiers to patrol. He wanted him to contribute.
However, they were all minor injuries. There was no problem with normal navigation and simple combat.
This medium-sized Battleship is different from a cruise ship. The place is bigger and the office is the most luxurious.
“I’ll leave the sailing to you.”
Kuro said to the Captain and walked towards the office.
The Captain saluted again and saw Kuro enter the Battleship Fortress in the middle. He was relieved and said to Marine: “With Lieutenant Colonel Kuro here, we are safe.”
“Yeah, that’s Lieutenant Colonel Kuro.”
“Someone who can fight Whitebeard. With him, this voyage will save a lot of trouble.”
The Marines were talking.
Of course, Kuro heard this.
He shook his head and entered the office. He sat down in a chair and began to rub his eyebrows.
Headache …
“Kuro, you seem to have become famous,” Leda said as she chewed an apple.
“Of course.”
Crowe adjusted his glasses and said, “In this war, Mr. Kuro’s attacks are very high and frequent. Naturally, the public will recognize him.”
And the existence of the live broadcast.
“Shut up!” Kuro glared at them and then sighed.
Ever since he knew that he could not escape the war, he was naturally prepared for this.
But it’s not hopeless now. I’m at most a ‘famous Marine’, similar to Smoker. As time goes by, my fame may be a little greater than his.
For this, Kuro also made countermeasures.
Marine can’t stay in the lower class anymore. His fame goes from ‘nameless’ to ‘little fame’, so he won’t come out of ‘little fame’. He is determined not to rise in the direction of ‘famous world’.
However, there are many famous people. From Smoker to various Vice-Admiral, they are all at this level. At most, they can just change their environment.
Keep a low profile and don’t show off. In a few years, he will be similar to those generals in the headquarters and won’t be noticed. Then everything will be easy.
As for that straw hat, he will go to the New World in a few years. The New World is the territory of the pirates and has little to do with Marines. He can do whatever he wants.
Therefore, the next step is to find a place to be released and then live for the rest of his life.
Safe and secure.
… .
Battleships naturally have no purpose in the Grand Line. They only have a permanent pointer to the headquarters, and the others have to rely on the Log Pose for island navigation.
The Grand Line is neither big nor small, and it is definitely not possible to sail on a fixed route, especially at this juncture, it is relying on the Log Pose to blindly touch it, because pirates also use Log Pose.
“Lieutenant Colonel!”
After sailing for less than half a day, the captain in charge rushed into the office and shouted, “Pirate Ship has been found!”
At this time, Kuro’s legs were on the desk, and he was sleeping.
Leda was still eating her snacks.
Meanwhile, Crowe was looking at the recent newspapers. After a day, newspapers about major events had been published and spread all over the world.
This war was named by those reporters as the ‘Top War’.
It fits quite well…
However, this was not what Crowe was looking at. He was a personal participant. What was there to see? Instead, he wanted to see some information from the small pages.
At this moment, Leda and Crowe looked towards the Captain.
Kuro was shocked. He shook his head and looked down at the Captain. “Pirate Ship?”
“Yes, there is a Pirate Ship ahead.” The Captain said solemnly.
“Which pirate group?”
“It’s the Flaming Sword Pirates. The Captain is the Flaming Sword Chenore with a bounty of 18 million.” The Captain answered.
“Then you can sink it.”
Kuro sighed. “Don’t disturb my sleep… Koro, go and solve it.”
“Understood.”
Crowe pushed up his glasses, stood up and walked out.
Kuro was about to continue sleeping on his back when he suddenly thought of something and said to Leda, “Go out and tell Crowe not to throw the remaining pirate ships and wrap them in bread… No, leave the weapons of that ship and pirates for me. I’ll go and get them when I wake up.”
“Can’t you move your feet yourself, Kuro?” Leda was speechless.
“Go quickly, otherwise what do I need you subordinates for?” Kuro waved his hand and continued to close his eyes.
“You are so lazy.”
Leda rolled her eyes and got up to leave the office.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Immediately, the sound of artillery fire came from outside.
Kuro, on the other hand, was not worried at all. With Crowe’s strength, it would be a joke if he were to deal with a small pirate worth 18 million.
