Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 283

My Student Kuro, Has the Talent of a General

Although he said so, Kuro believed that even if he said he minded, the old guy would probably not take it off.

Taking this thing off is very troublesome.

“That’s it.”

Kuro nodded.

Whoosh!

As soon as he finished speaking, Zephyra suddenly flashed forward and pushed the mechanism of the mechanical arm forward, erupting with a huge force and hitting Kuro in the face.

Bang!

This blow pushed Kuro back and his feet plowed a gully on the ground.

He crossed his hands in front of his face. Armament Haki had already appeared on his hands.

The Armament Haki on his hand dyed his entire body, and a purple cross mark began to appear between his eyebrows, and there were two tear marks under his eyes.

He put down his hand and said in a rude tone, “Old man, can you not slap my face?”

What’s wrong with these people?

Rayleigh, who didn’t go to see his old Captain, hit his face with a sword the first time they met. Now you, an old guy of the same era, hit your face with your fist not long after we met.

I know I’m handsome, but there’s no need to be so jealous.

“Ah… I’m sorry, I can’t help it when I think that you are a subordinate of Borusalino.” Zephyra said without any apology.

Kuro was speechless.

If I didn’t steal your skill today, believe it or not, I will break one of your hands again.

“Yo! Come on.”

Zephyr did not give Kuro a chance to think. After speaking, he stepped forward and swung his thick mechanical arm, bringing with it the sound of the wind as he rushed towards Kuro.

“You are not allowed to use your abilities, you are not allowed to use swordsmanship, and you only use body techniques. Let me see where your shortcomings are!”

Kuro narrowed his eyes and spat out the cigar in his mouth. He stretched out one hand and pressed his palm on the flung robotic arm.

Bang!!!

An impact swung away from Kuro’s feet, making his body move sideways.

“Your strength is not bad!”

Zephyra smiled and nodded. The robotic arm he threw over was blocked by Kuro with one hand.

This is not an ordinary force. The mechanical arm has Seastone. The steel rods that stabilize the machinery are made of Seastone. For ability users, they will lose their strength when they touch Seastone.

But this was also very particular.

Ordinary metahumans would naturally be like this.

However, the strong will not lose their combat power because of a mere Seastone.

As long as he has been trained, he will at most be ineffective with the Seastone, but he can still use Strength and Haki, but the remaining percentage depends on the individual.

But there is no doubt that those who can still exert their strength under the influence of Seastone are all strong.

“However, just resisting the power of the Seastone is not enough!”

Zephyra pushed her body forward and used the opportunity when Kuro was blocking the robotic arm to approach his body. She clenched her left hand into a fist and it was dyed black. Before Kuro could react, she punched his abdomen.

Bang!

“Tsk!”

Kuro gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his abdomen. He kicked it away and the tip of his foot hit Zephyr’s wrist, lifting his hand up. His body used this force to spin backward twice and landed on the ground again.

Even though this old man has become weaker, he is still not to be underestimated, especially in the area of physical techniques. It is quite painful to hit someone.

Zephyra was also a little shocked at this time. He looked at his hand, and the back of his hand was full of small wounds, as if it had been cut by a sharp weapon.

“This feeling…”

The distant memories were suddenly opened.

When he was dealing with the Locks Pirates, there was a crew member there who left a deep impression on him.

“Nail Fist Art? Why do you know this move? Moreover, that is clearly a move that can only be used for attack. You used it on Haki defense. Your body technique talent is indeed not bad.”

“It’s okay…”

Kuro touched his stomach and said, “I’ve been studying this recently and the effect is not bad.”

“Not bad, I just don’t know how fast you are.” Zephyra raised the robotic arm and bent her body. “Now, it’s your turn to deal with me.”

“Then old man, you have to be careful. I am very fast.”

Kuro twisted his neck and bent his legs slightly, revealing a confident smile.

Phew…

A cool breeze blew.

As a breeze blew past, Kuro disappeared in front of Zephyra. A chill came from his side. Zephyra’s pupils shrank and he raised his mechanical arm.

Bang!

A foot kicked the robotic arm and Kuro stepped on it. His body jumped up and his legs were wide open. Haki glowed under the sky like a battle axe.

‘Slap me in the face?’

I’ll strike you once too!

Zephyra smiled at this moment. “Your speed is not bad. You are indeed a subordinate of Borusalino.”

Snap.

With that, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Kuro’s leg and threw him to the side. Kuro felt a strong force spread out and flew into the distance with his body. He was about to hit a building at the side.

Thud!

Kuro stepped on the wall of the building and made a dent in it. Then he landed and frowned at Zephyr.

“It’s just that your attack method is too monotonous. You still have a lot of experience in body technique. You can’t deal with a body technique expert.”

“What a pity…”

Zephyra looked at him and sighed regretfully. “You should have come to the headquarters earlier. You actually stayed in East Blue for ten years. The government’s control over East Blue is too high.”

Kuro enlisted at the age of fourteen. If he were to start teaching at that time, he would definitely be stronger than he is now.

“Roger alone silenced East Blue for a long time. The strength of the pirates is ridiculously weak, which makes East Blue the most peaceful place in the four seas, but it is also the most difficult place for Marines to stand out.

“If you were born in a place like West Blue and North Blue and fought pirates for a long time, you might have come to Headquarters long ago.”

Looking at Zephyr’s regretful expression, Kuro curled his lips and said, “Then it’s great that I wasn’t born in other places… No, it’s a pity.”

What the f*ck?

One East Blue was enough for him.

Do you know how much effort he put into not getting promoted?

Back then, he not only had to play a pirate but also a Marine.

He had to find an opportunity to act alone all day long and kill all the pirates who could obviously make a contribution. Only then would he have ten years of peace.

Battle is indeed the main theme of progress.

Although he was quite satisfied with his swordsmanship, the experience points of his swordsmanship came from the pirate corpses that had either been turned into bones or swallowed by sea beasts under the East China Sea.

Kuro could not remember how many he had killed.

“Well, it’s not too late for you now. Come again, let me see what disadvantages your body technique has.” Zephyr straightened his body and said to Kuro.

… .

At dusk.

Crowe temporarily returned with a group of Marines to rest.

“This is, what’s wrong?”

Leda stared at the devastation in the town and looked at Kuro, who was slumped to the side, smoking a cigar and covered in scars.

“Teacher Zephyr!”

Ian ran to the other side and saw Zephyr leaning against a building with injuries and spraying himself.

“What’s wrong? Is Hernando here to ambush us?” Ian asked worriedly.

“No…”

After Zephyr finished spraying, he took a few deep breaths and regained his normal breathing. He looked at Kuro and said with a smile, “I have a new student, he has the potential to be a general!”
