Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

I Was Too Careless, I Was Not Prepared

The cruelest thing in the world is not the absence of hope, but the disappointment of having hope only to be dashed and turned into despair. That will be despair—Rusiru Kuro.

Therefore, it is impossible to be a philosopher unless it is extremely bitter.

Kuro was now very bitter.

The bitter bile is not as bitter as his.

Kaz again!

It’s him again!

It’s always him!!

In the sea, Kuro has never been afraid of anyone. He even dares to fight Kaido for a few rounds. Although it is best not to fight, if something really happens to him, will he be afraid?

Would he?

Will it?!!

But the only thing they were afraid of was not the enemy, but the ruthless attacks of their own people.

However, that person is still his subordinate. In principle, he did not do anything harmful to him, and in the eyes of others, that is the right thing to do.

Ever since East Blue faced the six million lizardmen, he felt that the world had turned upside down.

Kuro trembled as he took out his cigar. The hand holding the lighter was trembling. It took him a long time to light it up.

“Anyway, first smoke a cigar to calm down… You can’t calm down, bastard!”

Kuro wanted to slap himself twice. He leaned weakly in his chair and bit his cigar. The smoke drifted up his face and his eyes seemed to be broken and dull.

“I was wrong. I shouldn’t have killed that 6 million Lizardman Pirate. If I don’t kill him, I won’t get promoted. If I don’t get promoted, I won’t go to Headquarters. If I don’t go to Headquarters, how can I have such a series of bad things…”

East Blue 10th year, although a little cautious, it is also the most reassuring day for Kuro. He has never dealt with more than three million pirates on the surface.

Even one or two million pirates, together with many Marines, won in a siege and hid in the crowd without showing their strength.

But since the Lizardman, everything has changed.

He should not have made that move!

Seeing that Kuro looked like he was dead, Leda thought for a while and said, “Kuro, do you want me to chew some rice to make wine for you?”

“Shut up Lida! The Qing Dynasty is over, don’t say such old words!” Kuro glared at her, his eyes almost killing.

Leda shrugged, poured another plate of steak into her mouth, and went back to her meal.

“Calm down, I have to calm down, I still have a chance…”

Kurohu rubbed his head. “It’s just a brigadier general. Is a brigadier general a general? No, it’s just a reserve general. It’s like the transition from a captain to a second lieutenant. The intermediate transition is for an ordinary Marine soldier to gradually adapt to the role of command to become a second lieutenant.”

“It’s the same for a colonel to be promoted. Among them, a brigadier general also has the transition process of a Marine Admiral. A brigadier general is not a general. In addition, Sengoku only asked me to return to my division to be decorated. I can still stay in the West Blue as long as I am not a real major general.”

Marine Generals, but none of them are stationed in the Four Seas, except for patrols. The Commander-in-Chief is either in the branch of the Grand Line or leading troops on missions outside. How can he be the Base Chief in the branch of the Four Seas? The rank is not allowed.

But the Brigadier can.

“So my chance, my chance… Koro!!!”

Kuro thought hard for a long time. After thinking about it, there was nothing else except for not contributing, but this lacked a specific action plan, so he shouted out of the window.

“Mr. Crowe, try the freshly roasted meat.”

In the street of the town, a boss smiled and wrapped the barbecue in oil paper and handed it to Crowe.

Crowe, who had been enjoying being greeted for several days, was still entangled with the residents of the town outside, showing the aura of a soldier and civilian. He smiled and was about to take it with both hands when his ears moved and his face changed.

“Save it for next time.”

With that, Crowe’s figure flashed and disappeared from the boss’s sight.

He used ‘Shave’.

Soon, very soon, Crowe pushed open the door of the office on the upper floor of the base.

“Mr. Kuro, you called me?”

After saying this, Crowe’s heart skipped a beat because he saw Kuro’s gloomy face.

“Chloe…”

Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke, put his hands under his chin, and said to him earnestly, “You know, I have always used you as a tool, no, I used you as a think tank. If you encounter any problems, you will do your best to come up with a solution.”

Hearing this, Crowe straightened his back and a trace of pride appeared on his face.

It’s a pity that Cass isn’t here. Otherwise, he would really have to listen to Mr. Kuro’s praise.

Hmph, Cass is not wise and Leda is not scheming. Only I, Crowe, have the right to laugh.

He slowly reached out his hand and smoothed his hair, making his already slicked-back hairstyle even more backward. Then he pushed up his glasses and said confidently, “Mr. Kuro, have you encountered any difficulties?”

Kuro picked up the cigar and dusted off the ash. “It’s like this. Just now, Marshal Sengoku called and asked me what happened last time. You said how could I know what happened, and then he told me in detail.”

“I heard it. Oh, it’s about the last incident in the Country of Insects.”

“At first, he lied to me and said that I was demoted. When I heard it, I was very happy. He told me that it was fake and that I was not demoted. I was careless and unprepared. Not only did I not get demoted, but I was promoted because Kaz in the Country of Insects defeated a cadre of the Revolutionary Army in the Twin Horse Kingdom.”

“Is it good for such a big Marine Marshal to lie to me, a young man in his twenties? This is not good!”

Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke and said expressionlessly, “So, I’m a Brigadier General now.”

“Brigadier?”

Crowe was stunned and said happily, “Great, Mr. Kuro, you are finally promoted. I always thought that you are at least a Rear Admiral, but unfortunately you are only a Brigadier General, but it doesn’t matter, the distance between a Brigadier General and a Rear Admiral is probably only…”

Killing intent!

Before Crowe could finish speaking, he suddenly felt his hair stand on end. He took a look and saw that Kuro’s face was turning green at a visible speed.

His eyes are dangerous!

“… It’s going to be a long time.” Crowe changed his tone.

With this, Kuro’s eyes softened.

He nodded and sighed. “I want you to come up with a solution now. Tell me, how can I be demoted? I don’t want to be demoted to Captain, but it’s good to be demoted to Major. At most, I won’t be promoted. Now that I haven’t gone back to be decorated, how can I get the higher-ups to withdraw this order?”

“Withdraw… the command?”

Crowe was stunned and couldn’t figure it out.

He was clearly promoted, so why did he withdraw the order?

If you want to be promoted, so be it. Even if you don’t want to be promoted, you have already been promoted. Shouldn’t you take advantage of this time?

He knew that Mr. Kuro wanted to be safe, but this environment was already very safe.

Moreover, the safer way should be to become a general, cultivate his own forces, and completely take root in the Marine.

Although Mr. Kuro is a direct subordinate of Admiral Kizaru, it will be safer if I have a faction.

However, as the think tank of Kuro, he must follow his thoughts.

“How about… sheltering a pirate into the Marine? Like Fimboldi, he will be demoted.” Crowe asked.

It was because of this that his former subordinates entered the Marine Corps, and the original Headquarters Captain Femboldi became a third-class soldier in one breath.

“You used to be a pirate! And a captain! Do you think I have anything to do?” Kuro rolled his eyes.

‘Fenboddy?’

The two of them are not the same thing. They have no power or influence, and there is no one above to protect them. How can it be the same?

Not to mention himself, just based on the old man’s case, Judicial Island doesn’t have the guts to deal with it.

Besides, what kind of pirates do you need to get into the Marine Corps to demote me?

The 400 million bounty criminal who claimed to be the ‘Shanghai Thief King’?

Kill Shichibukai and force the World Government to admit it and challenge the authority of the World Government.

Nicole Robin, the felon who wreaked havoc on the Judicial Island and took away the World Government, let the Demon Slayer Token be washed on the Judicial Island and challenged the authority of the World Government.

He hooked up with the former Pirate King and seemed to have the idea of joining forces with the former Pirate King team, or challenging the authority of the World Government and the Marine bottom line.

The War Of The Best came out to cause trouble and almost caused him to fail. This time, not only did he challenge the authority of the World Government and the bottom line of the Marine, but he also fucking challenged Kuro!

Some time ago, he even brazenly went to Marin Vando to ring the bell. Such an arrogant person wants to enter the Marine…

It was probably nothing.

Kuro thought about it. If that reckless kid wanted to enter the Marine, with Garp’s connections, this might really work.

Just like this, the people who are a thorn in the eyes of the World Government are probably fine. Although his energy is not as high as Garp’s, but with the old man above him, even if the effect is half, he probably can’t find a pirate who can demote him, and he is even willing to join the Marine and turn over a new leaf.

Moreover, if it was really too vicious, he would have sunk into the sea long ago.

Although he wanted to be safe, he had to have a conscience. He could not do anything without a conscience.
