Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 411
Den Den Mushi Cuts, The News Seagulls Are Abandoned!
The Battleship returned to the headquarters at an extremely fast speed. At this time, a large number of troops were gathered in the headquarters. Although there were not as many troops as in the war, the quality was not bad.
Even Momousagi and Tokikake are guarding the headquarters at this time.
They were afraid that someone would get the news and attack the headquarters.
If anything goes wrong and two generals are lost in a row, it will be a disaster.
Even Kuro was pressed into the headquarters and could not go out. The guards were in Marin Van Do.
Three days later.
Kuro was smoking in his headquarters office. His office was actually the old man’s building.
After all, he was a Headquarters Brigadier General. How could he not have an office in Marien Vando?
“Yo.”
The Japanese sliding door was suddenly pulled open and Kuzan walked in and threw a bottle of wine to Kuro.
“Yes?”
Kuro was stunned and took the bottle of wine. There was a string of English words written on it—Jerez.
“Sherry wine? Why are you drinking this kind of rotten wine? You are a general.”
Kuro stretched out his thumb and pried open the seal on the bottle. He looked at Kusan. On his neck, there was still a scar formed by a burn. The scar extended all the way from his neck and probably occupied half of his body.
“Don’t underestimate this kind of wine. This is Teacher Zephyr’s favorite drink. Don’t you think it’s cool to drink ordinary wine in a high position?”
He pulled out the chair opposite Kuro and sat down.
Kuro narrowed his eyes and sat down. There was a layer of frost on his slightly rolled-up pants.
His leg was broken and he could not reattach it.
Unlike when Kuro was cut by Akagami (Red Hair) at the top, this guy’s leg was directly melted, the same situation as Zephyr.
It’s interesting…
Two master and disciple with the best relationship, one with a broken hand and the other with a broken leg.
Kuzan did not need to install prosthetics or anything. His ability was there, and the loss of a leg did not affect his movement.
But in terms of combat power, he is definitely not as powerful as when he was in good condition.
“I heard that when I fainted, you carried me back. I came to express my gratitude.”
Kurzam took the same wine and clinked it against Kurlo through the air. “Drink some?”
Kuro took down the cigar, clinked the bottle with Kuzan, and blew a few puffs on the bottle.
“Hu… it’s rotten.”
Kuro put down the bottle and said meaningfully, “I think that wine is actually the same as people. It doesn’t mean that you have to pursue some cool traditions or something. It’s fine as long as it’s good. If it’s good, it can enter the throat. Even if it doesn’t have the taste you want, the different times will change the taste of the wine. If you force yourself to pursue something, it will only make you feel uneasy.”
“I understand what you mean, but people have their own pursuits.”
Kuzan shrugged. “Sakaski is a Marshal and I… am ready to quit the Marine. Some things can’t be seen without leaving the Marine and sweeping away the cover of the World Government, especially people like us.”
The Admiral knows a lot of secrets.
For them, the secrets that ordinary people and even the Great Pirates don’t know are completely interconnected with the World Government.
If I look at the world on this basis…
“Have you decided?”
Kuro bit his cigar again. “Why don’t you reconsider? If you’re in Headquarters, you’ll get along very well.”
“No, I can’t stand the management of Sakasugi.”
Kuzan took another sip, gurgled a few times, drank all the wine in the bottle, and then put the bottle on the table.
He stood up and said, “You should develop well. Compared to someone like me, people like you can only survive in the Marine.”
With that, he turned and walked out of his office without waiting for Kuro to speak.
“Ha… Can you eat it?”
Kuro stared at the empty wine bottle on the table and muttered, “In the end, we are not the same type… The confusion and laziness in your eyes have disappeared, but I have never been lost.”
The goal of life is to live safely and comfortably until retirement, and then live safely and comfortably until death.
“Life is twenty-five years, like a dream, there is life and death, comfort and no regrets.” Kuro muttered a sentence and drank the remaining half of the wine.
Aokiji, no, Kuzan quit Marine.
This matter caused a huge earthquake in the Headquarters, but Akainu quickly suppressed it. In order to show his determination to fight the pirates, he decided to move the Headquarters from Marin Van Do to the New World.
For this, he had already gone to Mariejois and negotiated with Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars).
But this had nothing to do with Kuro.
He is now on his way back to West Blue.
He is still the Base Chief of West Blue Pegasus Island. No one can stop him from returning to West Blue.
“From now on, no one will answer the phone. Remember, don’t answer it.”
On the Battleship back, Kuro instructed his subordinates, “Use the same characteristics as before. Even if you can’t avoid it, just say that I’m not here. Remember, I’m definitely not here!”
“Kill the Den Den Mushi!”
Just in case, Kuro still instructed, “Block the signal completely and don’t let the news seagulls come. I can’t hear or see anything now!”
“Got it, Mr. Kuro.” Crowe pushed up his glasses helplessly and went down to do his work.
It doesn’t matter if Sengoku is a Marshal or Akainu is a Marshal. If he doesn’t answer the phone, he won’t get any credit. Who the hell would transfer him?
Akainu is busy moving the headquarters now. It will be half a year later when the headquarters is completely moved. By then, one will be in the New World and the other will be in the West Blue. They will have long forgotten about him.
Besides, he still had the old man there.
He doesn’t have any achievements or promotions now. Even if Sengoku Karp and Kapp come to his Pegasus Island, he won’t go.
There was no reason for him to go to the headquarters and he was transferred.
Are you really not going to follow your own intentions?
‘Huh?’
World Government?
World Government in charge of this shit?
Even if the ‘Shanghai Thief King’ comes back, he will go to the New World and it has nothing to do with him.
Finally, he, Kuro, has entered peace!
Just as Kuro fell into this illusory peace, seagulls flew to the world and scattered a large number of newspapers.
Yes, it was sprinkled.
In the past, newspapers were bought, but this time, the newspapers were directly spilled.
On an island, a civilian curiously saw seagulls scattering a few newspapers. He took one and looked at it curiously. He was shocked.
On the banner, it was not the news of Akainu taking over as Marshal.
Instead, there were two photos, divided into two sides, completely occupying the front page of the newspaper.
One of them showed a man wearing a Marine cape and biting a cigar, pointing a knife at four curly eyebrows. The bloody face of the four curly eyebrows appeared under the Marine’s knife, under the photo, and the Marine stood like a giant in front of the four heads. In the corner, a beautiful woman in a fan costume was lying in a sorry state.
The title was—North Blue Vinsmoke Four-Man Slash!
And the other bigger picture was also a color picture. The Marine took up a lot of position in the picture, maintaining the posture of putting away the knife. Behind him, a red sun slowly rose, and behind the Marine, an old man fell in a pool of blood.
“Lonely… Lonely Tall Red?!”
Seeing the title, the civilian’s eyes widened and his mouth opened as if it was dislocated.
… .
“If you do this, it should be fine.”
North Blue, in a palace.
A king held the newspaper and said with some worry, “We found Morgan to publish the news out of his own pocket. The bedroll of the whole world can cause a sensation and should not be threatened by that Marine anymore.”
“It can be done. This is the best we can do, and we have cooperated with the official news of the World Government. Whether it is official or civilian, we have covered all aspects.” Another king said.
“We also gave that Marine credit, we will definitely satisfy him.” A king said.
“It’s almost time. That Marine will definitely know our intentions!” The last king said firmly.
