Chapter 648
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
Humanoid Unlucky Machine
The night, the flames, the smiling woman in the flames, and the people around her who looked like demons.
This was the only knot in Mooreâs heart after so many years.
He was a man of the Kingdom of Tada and he used to be a loyal Knight of the Church until he met Lisara.
That year, the entire country fell seriously ill. It was this woman who concocted the medicine and saved the entire country, but it was also that year that Lisara died there.
From that day on, Moore despaired of the Kingdom of Tada and the world.
Gradually, he became this lazy look until he met Zalia and gave him the power of âlazinessâ, which made him re-summon his wish to save the world. But when he went to the Kingdom of Tada, he found that not only was the country gone, but even the land was gone.
After learning the truth from the old man who guarded the books, Moore remembered Kuro.
In the office.
Moore was talking, surrounded by a group of generals.
Leda sat on the sofa and concentrated on eating snacks. She destroyed bag after bag, but he didnât know if she was listening.
Ian sat next to her, unwrapping her snack bag.
Crowe stood next to Kuro with his hands behind his back, his glasses glowing. No one knew what he was thinking.
Kaz and Wilbur stood on either side of the door like two door gods, their backs straight. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Donald leaned against the wall, wiping the cross-barrel.
Bintz sat cross-legged in the corner, meditating.
Basil looked around as if he was looking at the office.
Tomoe is looking at the recipe, only Fanny has a complicated look in her eyes.
Listening to Mooreâs story, Kuro put his chin on the back of his hand and put on a âCommanderâ pose, carefully looking at Moore.
This personâs curly hair is quite long, all the way to his shoulders. His face is handsome but he looks a little lazy, and his clothes are loose, he looks more like a tramp.
It did not matter to Kuro whether Moore entered the Marine or not.
It was not that he did not have such a complex composition.
Crowe is a former pirate captain and Basil is a former trainee pirate.
Donald is an ex-Ranger, a Ranger of Kano Country. He is a combination of a bodyguard, a swordsman, a bandit, and a gangster. He is not a good person in his profession.
There is nothing wrong with adding an unemployed person who failed to save the world.
âWhat do you think?â Kuro looked at the others.
âThis kind of thing is up to you.â Leda stuffed snacks into her mouth and said perfunctorily.
The others had similar expressions.
Only Kaz and Wilbur were thinking seriously. Kaz said, âWe certainly welcome any existence that wants to uphold justice, Mr. Moore. Letâs fight for justice together!â
âAh⦠Marine, you donât have to be so polite.â Moore smiled and said, âI just want to find a place to work.â
Crowe pushed up his glasses. âWork? If itâs just work, you donât have to choose Marine. You can do it elsewhere. With your strength, you can do anything.â
As the think tank in Mr. Kuroâs team, he has to control every risk. Itâs rare for Mr. Kuro to give them a multiple-choice question, so they have to perform well.
Otherwise, there would be no chance to perform.
Mr. Kuro rarely gives them any choice.
âItâs not like thatâ¦â
Moore lowered his head and looked a little shy. âI donât know why, but what I do doesnât last long. When I was at sea, I was a merchant ship guard. Then the merchant ship caught fire and all the goods were gone.â
âHe was also the guard of a rich family, but after a few days, the rich family was stolen and it seems that they stole his illegal evidence. In the end, he went bankrupt and I lost my job.â
âI was a Pirate Hunter, but I didnât catch a single pirate. Strange, there are so many pirates in the sea.â
âI stumbled for a while and didnât succeed in anything. Then I met the Holy Lady and was persuaded to join. Actually, I just wanted to find another job. Marine is so big, I canât do it for long.â
After hearing what Moore said, the corners of Basilâs mouth twitched.
This is not a matter of long-term or not. This is a matter of you being very unlucky.
âI have some opinions.â
At this time, Wilbur said, âMr. Kuro, I think it needs to be considered again. With this personâs own resume, it is very likely that some unexpected situations will appear, such as being demoted, which is a bad thing.â
âEh? Is it related to me? Why would he be demoted if I was here?â Moore was shocked.
This is a good thing!
Kuro opened his eyes and immediately made the decision.
âAlright, you can join the Marine. You are so unlucky⦠No, our Marine will help you when you are in trouble. From now on, you will be my G-3 member. Well⦠you can start from the beginning with the military title and so on, but you can be my messenger.â
Unlucky might not be that mysterious, but it doesnât hurt to believe it. What if? What if he is really unlucky enough to demote me?
âOh! I have something to do.â Moore said excitedly, âThe salary is negotiable. Let me tell you, although I took the initiative to apply, you canât underestimate me. The salary still has to be paid on time.â
âThere is no unpaid salary in Marine at the moment. Okay, thatâs it, dismissed.â
Kuro waved his hand. âGo out.â
Marine has never been in arrears of wages or paid less. After all, the World Government is rich.
The people in the office left one by one. Moore looked around and found Basil.
âHey, little brother, Iâm sorry about before. We have to fight because of our position. Uncle didnât mean it that way.â Moore smiled.
Basil glanced at him and snorted. âYouâd better stay away from me. I donât want to get close to such an unlucky person. It will infect me.â
He still remembered how this person beat him mercilessly.
The others were basically not beaten up, only him.
âEh? Iâm not unlucky. How can I be unlucky?â
âCan so many things happen to you if youâre not unlucky?â Basil squinted at him.
âNo.â
Moore recalled the situation that day and vowed, âThe fire on the merchant ship had nothing to do with me. I was just hungry at night and went to the kitchen to find something to eat. When I opened fire, I didnât pay attention and the fire started. The fire may have its own thoughts and it was unwilling to only cook, so it burned other things.â
Itâs you!
The reason for the fire is you!
The corners of Basilâs eyes twitched.
âBeing a guard for a rich person, I donât know. Iâm just sleeping there. How would I know that there would be a thief? In this world, if you donât do anything serious, why would you steal?â Moore sighed.
You are a guard, why are you sleeping!
It is your duty as a guard to look at thieves!
The corners of Basilâs eyes twitched.
âAlso, itâs the same for bounty hunters. Iâve been floating in the sea for so long and havenât found a single pirateâ¦â
Moore rubbed his chin. âThere are some warm and hospitable people who keep pulling me on board, saying that they want to take me to find some One Pieceâ¦â
In his mind, a ship with a skeleton flag and a group of fierce-looking people were drinking and chatting with him.
âBut the strange thing is that their canvas is painted with a white head. Is it their idol? It looks like a skeleton. Itâs probably malnourished,â Moore said strangely.
âThatâs it!â
Basil couldnât help but roar, âThis is a pirate!â
âEh? Pirates? No, they are quite hospitable.â Moore was stunned for a moment. âThey invited me to dinner and drinks.â
Are you fucking kidding me!
Blue veins appeared on Basilâs forehead as he glared at Moore.
Was this guy being sarcastic or simply unable to tell?
