Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 767

Depon’s Supervisor

After laughing, the three of them stepped forward in unison. David stretched out two hands and held them. Cass and Wilbur each reached out one hand and held David’s hand tightly.

It was as if he had met his own kind and was excited for a long time.

“I’m so lucky!”

David said excitedly, “I’m so lucky to meet the two of you. Mr. Cass, I’ve always heard of your name. You are the one who has made the most contribution to Master’s cause. When you were stationed on Pegasus Island, you killed more than half of the active pirates in West Blue, so that Master’s reputation won’t fall. Every time I mention it, I’m excited. It’s a pity that I’m a king. Otherwise, it would be my long-cherished wish to join the Marine and fight under Master!”

“Mr. Wilbur, the words you gave me are too useful. Every time I read them, I have a different experience. In the future, please send more words that my master has said to me so that I can study better. Although I can’t see my master, I can see what my master has said and I can feel that my master is talking to me. You, who can summarize what my master has said, are very amazing!”

“You flatter me!”

Kaz’s face was solemn as he shook David’s hand heavily. “The most important thing is to agree with Mr. Kuro’s idea of justice and contribute to it. This is the existence that we admire! In contrast, my contribution is far from worth mentioning. I am just an apprentice behind Mr. Kuro’s justice. You think that my contribution is all taught by Mr. Kuro.”

“Me too, I just heard a little about Mr. Kuro’s justice. What I did was just copying, which is far from enough, and I am not worthy of the evaluation of ‘amazing’ you said. However, our hearts are the same for Mr. Kuro’s justice philosophy!” Wilbur nodded.

The three of them were speechless again. When they looked at each other, there seemed to be a spark.

“Mr. Cass! Mr. Wilbur!” David couldn’t help but say, “Let’s work together. If there are two people who can contribute together, maybe Master’s long-cherished wish can be realized in our hands!”

“I can’t be a gentleman. Just call me Cass, King David,” Cass said excitedly.

“Me too!” Wilbur said excitedly.

“Don’t call me king, just call me David. I am just a king entrusted by Master. Master is the king in my heart!” David also said excitedly.

The three of them looked at each other again and spoke.

“Kaz!”

“Wilbur!”

“David!”

The three of them shouted at each other and the sparks in their eyes became thicker and thicker, revealing a sense of appreciation.

“Then I won’t be polite, David. Since you are the king of Dressrosa, why do you want to conquer so many countries? Although you are a righteous person, so many conquests are unrighteous.” Kaz asked the question he had been wanting to ask.

Dressrosa has recently become famous in the sea and has become a powerful force. The Marines who care about the outside world have naturally heard about it.

“For Master’s long-cherished wish!”

David said solemnly, “Master wants world peace. As his knight, it is the knight’s mission to fulfill his master’s wish. There are too many countries on the sea. Even if I don’t conquer them, they will spontaneously attack. In that case, the world will never be peaceful. It’s better for me to take action and bring them into a unified country. As for why we are fighting here, it’s because world peace is a grand goal. Before that, I want to ensure the peace around Master.”

“I, Dressrosa, will clean up the country near Master. In this way, as long as there is enough peace, the number of people who want to go to the sea to be pirates will definitely decrease. And we can also protect Master and make the sea near Master peaceful!”

Kaz’s eyes widened. “Sparashi! Sparashi! You think so deep, David. You’re amazing!”

“It’s just the only thing I can do with the geographical advantage. It can’t be called amazing. This is all I can do.”

David scratched his head in embarrassment and then sighed. “And it can only be done to this extent. Although your sea area has been connected from the route and the map and it is close to Master, it is also the limit. Because of the long war, it is difficult for the nearby countries to sell supplies to us easily and they all buy them at a high price. Our money is no longer enough for me to conquer and build.”

As he spoke, he looked outside the palace. “Laya Island has to be rebuilt after the conquest, turning it into the same environment as Dressrosa. The cost of it needs to stop me from moving forward.”

“I can donate my salary!”

Kaz shouted, “It’s very little, but please let me contribute!”

David looked touched. “As much as I want to say no, the domestic situation is like this. I still need it, even if it’s just a little. Master said not to underestimate small things. They are huge when gathered together.”

Wilbur nodded. “These are the words from verse 15 on page 3 of the Justice Quotations.”

Donald, who came from behind: “…”

If he remembered correctly, Vice-Admiral Kuro had said…

… .

“Lida, can you pay attention when you spend money? Even if you have money, you shouldn’t spend it like this! A lot of the money you give has already been exceeded. No matter how much money you have, don’t waste it. Don’t throw away money in a hurry just to eat the next thing. You have to wait for others to give you change!”

“Ah? But I can’t wait. Besides, there are subordinates for me, and I didn’t exceed it by much. It’s just 100 more Berries.”

“One is 100 Berries, 10,000 is 1,000,000 Berries! Have you heard of Little by Little!”

… .

Born in the Country of Flowers, it was easier for him to understand Vice-Admiral Kuro’s words. If he understood it correctly, it should be “A little makes a lot”.

“In addition to the problem of supplies and money, Dressrosa’s current huge territory is also a problem. Although the treatment of them is the same, I always feel that there is a lack of a unified spirit. What I can feel is different customs and different degrees of technology. Even if it is forcibly built to a unified height, there will be contradictions. Recently, it is just a matter of constantly conquering to transfer this contradiction, but the contradictions in these places will break out sooner or later, which also requires me to stop.”

David continued, “I’m going to use my Knight’s code to teach these people. If they become like me, maybe the contradictions will be gone and they can also contribute to His Lordship.”

“I see…”

Wilbur touched his chin and suddenly thought of something. He widened his eyes and said, “David, why don’t you try using ‘Quotations of Justice’? You are the king and you have this power. I have heard Mr. Kuro say before that there is a place where there are many countries, different races, and different languages, but because they believe in the same thing, they are integrated and formed a disguised unity. Although they are still different, they have a high level of recognition, I think it is called… Ya, Ya something?”

Kaz added, “Abraham is useless!”

“Yes, it’s called this, although I don’t know why Mr. Kuro calls it trash, maybe the reason it’s trash is that there are too many pirates and bandits. But we can use this thing and use ‘Quotations of Justice’!”

Wilbur nodded heavily. “Spread the words of justice to Dressrosa and let people agree with Mr. Kuro’s justice! Those who agree with the justice will not become useless. Even if the race is different and the place is too far away and the technology is different, as long as they agree with the ‘Justice Quotations’, it will be…”

David had a flash of inspiration and interrupted, “They are all Dressrosa people! Yes! That’s right, you are right! As long as we agree with Master’s justice, we are all Dressrosa people!”

With that, he said excitedly, “No, it shouldn’t be called Dressrosa. If we agree with justice, we don’t even need to conquer to complete the purpose of peace. The size of Dressrosa alone is definitely not enough. That must be the union of our respective states, but it must be mainly me, Dressrosa, because I want to guarantee his lordship’s dominance of peace. Then, it will be called…”

“Let’s call it Depon!”

David said with wild joy: “I am the king of Dressrosa, but I can be the knight and seneschal of Depon and I will only serve Master!”
