Chapter 497
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
You Have to Tie Me Even If You Have to!
âSpeaking of which, you were gone for a long time? You went to East Blue again?â
Kuro asked.
Leda ran for half a month.
âYeah.â
Leda showed a satisfied smile. âI went to Barati for a good meal and let Sister Stork learn some cooking skills.â
She was obsessed with Barati.
After Kuro released his autonomy, Leda returned to East Blue every few days and went to East Blue to eat.
He had never enjoyed this treatment before.
He thought about how he had been living during this period of time. He was either plagued by this matter or disturbed by that body. How could he have so much time to go wherever he wanted?
âYou and Crowe have nothing to do, right? Why do you all go to East Blue? I havenât been back much.â Kuro rolled his eyes and said with some resentment.
He is the Chief of Sabaody Ground Base, he really canât run around.
As for Crowe, he hasnât been back for more than half a month. Itâs easy to guess that he has returned to West Rob Village.
For some reason, after he became a colonel, the first thing he did was to return to Xilob Village and then go to the rich girl he designed back then to apologize.
At the same time, he stabbed himself and made others forgive him.
Then, he returned to West Rob Village every few days as if it was his hometown.
âI donât know, Iâm not on the same side as him. Speaking of which, it seems to be much more peaceful recently, but it doesnât feel as peaceful as before.â Leda frowned. âItâs so strangeâ¦â
âWhatâs strange? The death of that old man Whitebeard has set off another pirate craze, but we are recruiting in the world here. Although the intensity has increased, the situation is much better than before.â Kuro said.
Now, it was still the Great Age of Pirates.
Whitebeardâs death did not end this era, but made it seem more violent.
However, Sakasugi is not to be trifled with. World conscription is very rare, and even Sabaody is supplemented by a lot of Marines.
Marineâs overall strength has improved.
Moreover, as far as Kuro knows, there is already a new âAdmiralâ here.
Green Bull.
According to the old man, he is a new monster and is now stationed at Mary Joa.
However, Kuro had never seen her in person. He heard that she was very lazy, so lazy that after entering Mary Joa, she was like the God of Otaku.
He was not interested in going to Mary Joa to see the new Admiral.
There is also a general. I heard that Headquarters has also chosen a candidate and is inviting him.
As for who it was, Kuro knew.
A smile.
This is good. He has safely passed the pit of becoming a general.
After all, he was a subordinate of the old man. The World Government would be stupid to make him a general.
Besides, why does he want to be a general? Itâs so dangerous.
There are tenryubito at the top and YonkÅ (Four Emperors) at the bottom.
YonkÅ (Four Emperors) â¦
Whoever wants to deal with that kind of thing can deal with it. Anyway, he canât.
âRawr â¦â
The Den Den Mushi on his desk rang.
âKuro, you have a call.â
âAnswer it for me.â
âOh.â
Leda ran over and picked up the microphone. A familiar voice came from Den Den Mushi. âOh, Kuro.â
âThis is Leda,â Leda said into the microphone.
The Den Den Mushi turned into a wretched appearance.
âItâs Little Lida, whereâs Kuro?â
âSunbathing, Grandpa Kizaru, are you looking for him?â Leda asked.
âGive him the phone, I have something to tell him.â Den Den Mushi said.
âNo, just say it. I can hear you.â
Kuro lay motionless in the recliner.
âItâs like this. The Sakasugi side is recruiting in the world, you know.â
âYes, I know. Isnât it very good?â
âBut now the conscription is in the final stage, but there is another candidate for the general. Kuro, are you interestedâ¦â
âI didnât!â
Kuro stood up and walked over in three steps. He took the microphone in Ledaâs hand and said in surprise, âGrandpa, are you kidding me? Iâm just a Rear Admiral. Even if itâs the World conscription, you canât do this. Youâre not dead yet!â
âOh, then do you want something to happen to me? How terrible, Kuro.â
Den Den Mushi opened his mouth and said, âBut itâs not that. Iâm asking if youâre interested in getting in touch with Marineâs selected candidate. We have contacted that person before and we want to get familiar with him this time. Yixiao, youâve seen him before. If you go, there should be no problem.â
âOh, you want me to recruit, no, persuade him to surrender, thatâs not right, you want me to recruit a smile?â Kuro was relieved.
âThatâs right, go and get in touch with him. According to the news, he is now in the City of Spring Queen, not far from you.â
âOkay, I agree, but I donât promise that I can succeed.â Kuro answered casually.
He hasnât been going out much recently, so he can take this opportunity to go out and play.
âItâs fine if it doesnât work.â
Kizaru chuckled and said, âIf it doesnât succeed, Sakasugi will be nominated by the World Government, by Tokikake or Momousagi and you.â
â?â
At first, when Kuro heard Tokikake and Momousagi, he nodded seriously.
After all, he is a âAdmiral Substituteâ. If he really canât find someone he is satisfied with, those two people can totally replace him.
But the last sentence stunned Kuro and a big question mark appeared on his head.
âMe?â Kuro was stunned. âWhat does it have to do with me?â
âKuro, this is an opportunity. Yixiao hasnât agreed yet. If you want to go further, this is an opportunity.â
**TIP**
Kuro hung up the phone and stopped listening to Kizaru.
âChance, I have a chance my ass!â
Kuro cursed, âI mean how to find me properly. That bastard Yixiao hasnât agreed yet. This is a f*cking trap.â
âAnd leave the choice to him?â
Do you think I want to go further?
âKuro, you are going to be a general?!â Leda said in surprise.
âGo, go, go!â
Kuro glared at her. âIâm a general with my strength?! Are you cursing me to die?! Have you forgotten how long Iâve been injured?!â
That was six months agoâ¦
Leda rolled her eyes. âYou havenât spent the last six months in vain.â
As she spoke, she sized up Kuro. Compared to half a year ago, he was much taller. Now he was about 2.8 meters tall. Her current young form could only reach his knees a little.
âCall Crowe back!â
âAh? Why did you call him?â
âIf I go out on a mission, can he still enjoy life?!â
Kuro gritted his teeth and said, âYixiao, if you donât agree, I will kidnap him! The whole army is out!â
Although if he canât get a smile back, he can choose one of the three from Kuro, Ji Yuan, and Jia Ji, the probability of one-third is already very high.
He didnât want to gamble.
For this, he could not be lazy anymore. He had to make Yixiao agree!
