Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Kuro’s Call

It was impossible for Kuro to leave now. He had to ensure that the residents could rely on themselves.

However, these days would not be long.

Under the mayor’s organization, a Marine base was renovated in the center of the town, and the nearby places were circled and used as Marine homes.

On the coast, two pillboxes were built and several cannons were placed nearby as a crude coastal defense.

Kuro was in his new office, overlooking the entire Pegasus Town. Because the base was in the center, Kuro could see the whole Pegasus Town.

It has been half a month since Kaz arrived.

The residents of Pegasus Town gradually fell into a stable state.

From below, the townspeople on the street began to act as merchants and began to sell things.

There are still resources on Pegasus Island. Without the threat of pirates, the townspeople will be active whether for their own survival or for other reasons.

This island is gradually on the right track and there is no need to worry about it.

“Are we really going to Kano Country, Mr. Kuro?”

Crowe pushed up his glasses and said, “There are also unknown strong people in that place. I heard that there are nine Marine Corps forces, and the leader of the ‘Eight Treasures Marine Corps’ is said to be a big pirate.”

“It’s not like I’m going to fight pirates. I’m just looking for craftsmen and cooks,” Kuro said. “He’s such a troublesome person. Whoever is sick will go to him.”

As for Green Pepper, it was worth 500 million in the old generation. Back then, it had some dealings with Garp, but what does this have to do with him, Kuro?

This person is already living in seclusion, and he is still sick to find such a thing.

“Mr. Kuro, if you are on this island, there is no need to find any craftsmen…” Crowe said.

“You’re floating again.”

Kuro glanced at him and said, “What’s wrong with this island? Can’t a cannon blow up a house or bullets can’t kill people? No matter how capable I am, I can’t keep looking at these people. I’m not a guardian angel. If I don’t defend the coast well, how can I feel at ease?”

This is the era of the Great Voyage. Cannon is still a threat.

Without Armament Haki and iron, even Whitebeard could be injured by swords and spears, and Garp could be broken by an axe.

You can say that they are strong, but they are so strong that you have no temper and they can beat you up.

If you say they are weak, a bullet can take them away.

Not to mention these ordinary people.

There must be craftsmen who can build fortresses, and in order to enjoy life, a little chef is also necessary.

Kuro had called the old man, but they were all the same. The famous craftsmen in the Navy were not in Headquarters.

For example, Vice-Admiral Kong Ming has a Marine who is good at modifying ships and bases, but he treats him like a treasure, and Kizaru is not familiar with him, that is Granny Crane’s faction.

There will be a favor for asking such a random person. A favor means trouble.

In any case, Kano Country is so close, it is not a big deal to make a trip there.

Kaz couldn’t do anything wrong here.

“Then I’ll go find Cass.”

With that, Crowe was about to leave.

“No need.”

Kuro waved his hand and called directly, “Kaz, Kaz!”

Whoosh!

As soon as he finished speaking, the door outside was suddenly knocked open and a strange object with rising heat appeared in front of the three of them.

Kaz, visibly steaming, saluted with unusual precision. “Colonel Kuro, you called me!”

Crowe pursed his lips and whispered, “I remember you were training in the square below, why are you so fast?”

“Don’t underestimate a hot-blooded monster with a heart of worship. Kuro’s call is very effective.” Leda silently complained.

Even Kuro himself was helpless about this scene.

He looked left and right to make sure that he did not have any tentacles and there was no sugar on him.

Although they all live on the sea, they are still different.

Kaz has become more and more evil recently, making Kuro wonder if he believes in some evil god or something.

He would train in the square, just like how his group of Marines could perform sacrificial rituals.

“Prepare the ship, I’m going to Kano Country, you stay here and guard it, don’t let pirates enter here,” Kuro said to him.

“Understood, Colonel Kuro. I will fill up the supplies. Is the staff ration still the same as before?” Kaz asked.

As Kuro’s former adjutant, he also understood Kuro’s habits very well.

As long as they were out on the sea, the Marines would send more people to the limit of the number of Battleships, food and other supplies.

“Same old, go and prepare.” Kuro waved his hand.

“Yes!”

Kaz saluted again, then turned into a cloud of steam and sped away.

Crowe said enviously, “This ability is really clever.”

It would be a lie to say that he was not envious of the ability to accelerate.

But he missed it at that time, so there was nothing he could do.

And he was quite satisfied with his current ability.

“Eh?”

Just then, Leda’s ears twitched and she looked through the window at the sea in the distance. “Kuro, I think a ship is coming.”

On the sea, several ships gradually approached.

The ship came closer and closer, allowing the surrounding townspeople to see the appearance of the ship. It was just an ordinary merchant ship, but it was shockingly big.

“I finally see the island.”

On the ship, a merchant smiled. “This must be Pegasus Island. I heard that it was occupied by pirates.”

“Boss, there’s no need for pirates to stop here.” A subordinate next to him said worriedly.

“What are you afraid of?”

The merchant said disdainfully, “Who are we? Do we need to care about these pirates? We are just renovating here. If you don’t have eyes, then destroy this island.”

He patted the huge cannon on the bow of the ship and was full of confidence. “If you’re worried about pirates, then let’s fire a cannon first to liven things up. It’s just nice to test the power of the cannon and sell it later.”

“Oh?”

In the center, Kuro narrowed his eyes and watched the ships gradually approach. From his distance, he could see that the number of cannons on each ship far exceeded that of ordinary merchant ships.

“This water consumption, there are quite a lot of things. Finally, a merchant came to trade.” Kuro showed a gratified smile.

Merchants are all born with a dog’s nose. They will appear wherever there is a business opportunity. The news that Marine is stationed here must have spread.

BOOM!!!

Just as he thought this, sparks flew from the mouth of a huge cannon on the approaching ship. With a loud sound, a huge cannonball was ejected from the muzzle and fell straight towards the town.

“Huh?” Kuro’s eyes widened. “Koro!”

“Understood!”

Tap tap tap!

Crowe took a few steps and rushed out of the window. His body quickly stepped on the air, creating a few air ripples and heading straight for the cannonball.

“Iron Fist: Penetrating Nail!”

There was no need to get close to the cannonball. Crowe only punched out. The moment he approached the cannonball, an inexplicable force penetrated the cannonball. With a bang, fire and smoke exploded in the air.

Crowe fell from the sky, shook his fist, and looked coldly at the ship in front of him. “Bold. Attacking Marines is a felony.”
