Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Spear and Shield

Half a month later.

A warship is docked in the port of Sabaody Archipelago.

A group of Marines came down with a man in a chef’s uniform.

“This is Sabaody Archipelago…”

Olga looked at the colorful bubble floating in the air and then looked at the pedestrians on the road and asked doubtfully, “I heard that the Sabaody Archipelago is very lively. Why does it look a little deserted?”

In his impression, Sabaody Archipelago should be very lively, but now, this level of prosperity confused him.

“That’s because some time ago, Mr. Kuro, the head of the base on this island, launched a great purge against pirates and gangs.”

A bearded man next to him said with a little admiration, “He slaughtered criminals indiscriminately, risked offending the rich and powerful, killed more than 10,000 people, and returned Sabaody Archipelago peace. This goal and will are really admirable!”

“I feel the same.”

Behind the bearded man, a strong man holding a gun nodded and said, “When I first heard it, I was deeply impressed.”

“Ten thousand…”

When Olga heard this number, her eyes widened and she broke out in a cold sweat. “That kind of murderer is your superior? You admire him?!”

“What do you mean by killing the devil?!”

The bearded man said unhappily, “Mr. Kuro, it’s okay if you don’t understand what we are doing for justice and peace, but please don’t slander us.”

“Sorry…” Olga reacted and apologized to the bearded man.

“Hey, Cass.”

Suddenly, a sound came from ahead.

Crow approached with a group of Marines. “Long time no see.”

“Ah… it’s Mr. Crowe!”

Cass saluted him. “Long time no see, Mr. Crowe!”

Crowe nodded and glanced at Cass’s ribs. “How are your injuries?”

“Thank you for your concern. It’s almost healed. What I feel even more guilty is that I couldn’t defend Pegasus Island at the first time and had to rely on the help of other Marines. I really let down Mr. Kuro’s expectations.” Kaz lowered his head guiltily.

“Didn’t Mr. Kuro advise you not to take that kind of thing to heart?”

As Crowe spoke, he suddenly thought of something and turned sideways to let Marine behind him out. He introduced, “This is Colonel Wilbur, an officer at the Sabaody Marine Station. He is currently Mr. Kuro’s deputy. He has been wanting to see you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a white whirlwind appeared in the Marine and quickly came to Kaz’s side. Before Kaz could react, his hands were pulled up.

A strong man who was a head shorter than him held his hand excitedly. “Hello! You must be Colonel Dougley Cass! The shield of Major General Kuro, I am Wilbur, the man who wants to become Major General Kuro’s spear!”

“Oh!!!!”

Kaz’s eyes lit up and he held Wilbur’s hand instead. “I see. You have such ambition! Let’s work hard together!”

“Senior Kaz!” Wilbur said excitedly. “Please let me learn how to do things for Rear Admiral Kuro.”

“Just call me Kaz. There is no precedence in serving Mr. Kuro.” Kaz said passionately, “Let us fight for Mr. Kuro’s beautiful tomorrow!”

“Colonel Kaz!!” Wilbur’s eyes were filled with tears.

“Colonel Wilbur!!” Kaz also had tears in his eyes.

“It’s so… so touching!” Donald was also excited by this scene.

“Hey, that’s enough. You can do it yourself.”

A dark line appeared on Crowe’s forehead. “Who is Olga?”

“Uh, it’s me…” Olga came out and scratched her head.

“Come with me, Miss Leda wants to eat your doughnut. I will take you to Marine’s canteen. Also, let our head chef observe.”

Crowe adjusted his glasses and said, “Cass, as for you, aren’t you looking for Mr. Kuro?”

“Ah… yes, I am going to find Mr. Kuro.”

Kaz reacted and reluctantly let go of Wilbur’s hand and followed Crowe to the Marine station.

Kaz, of course, did not serve in Sabaody. He just went to the Ministry to get his colonel rank and happened to come to Sabaody on the way. When Kuro learned of this news, he simply asked him to bring the ‘long-standing’ Olga with him so that he did not have to go to Pegasus Island.

In the office.

Kuro sat at his desk and looked at a Marine internal fax brought over by a Marine. He bit his cigar and blew out a stream of smoke.

“Hmph, I knew it. This matter is f*cking stupid.”

Kuro put down the fax and smiled disdainfully.

“What’s wrong?” Leda asked.

“The ship escorting Snag and Rezan was attacked by the Big Mom Pirates and they were robbed,” Kuro said.

“Eh? Sengoku and Garp are here?” Leda was shocked.

“Of course not.”

Kuro shook his head. “The people have been handed over to the World Government, but the World Government’s ship was attacked. This is too f*cking fast. The ship was attacked in the New World without even going to the Headquarters. I wouldn’t believe it if there wasn’t something fishy, but… it’s normal.”

“It’s the World Government, it’s about maintaining stability. If I really catch Snack, who knows if that aunt will be crazy enough to do ‘top’ a second time. If I really do it, I will definitely be called up. Yonkō (Four Emperors), let them bite each other in the New World.”

“The New World is very chaotic now. A few supernovas broke in, Urki defeated Snacker, and that red-haired Kid also snatched a few of Lingling’s ships. It’s very interesting… Let them play. Anyway, the New World is not a place that Marines can control.”

The place under the jurisdiction of the World Government is only a little bit of the New World, close to the Red Earth.

Their basic positions are in the Four Seas and Grand Line. In the early decades, the World Government had an idea, but they invested too much in the New World with no effect, so they contracted their defensive line.

Therefore, not only did Kuro not want to care about this matter, but it also had nothing to do with him.

“Mr. Kuro.”

There was a knock on the door and then Crowe pushed it open and said, “Colonel Cass is here.”

“Mr. Kuro!!”

Kaz excitedly walked to the center and saluted Kuro. Tears fell unconsciously. “Douglas Kaz is here to report to you!”

“Stop, stop, stop.”

Kuro had a headache when he saw the bearded man. He rubbed his eyebrows and waved his hand. “It’s good that you’re here. Don’t be so formal… How is your injury?”

“Thanks to you, it’s fine now. Pegasus Island is also running well. It’s even more prosperous than when you were here!” Kaz said firmly.

These words are…

Is it not good that I am here?

Kuro rolled his eyes. “Good. Stay for a meal. You can go back when you’re done.”

“Yes! Mr. Kuro!”

Kaz was inexplicably excited.

Eat?!

Mr. Kuro actually asked him to stay for dinner!

He was admitted by Mr. Kuro again!

… .

Outside, Marine Station.

Several Marines fell to the ground with their eyes closed and their clothes stripped off.

Several men in Marine uniforms stood there. One of them adjusted his hat. The shadow of the hat covered his eyes, revealing only his lips, which were full of hideous smiles.

“Start the operation.”
