Chapter 677
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
The Sword That No One Can Wave
âMarine Master, hello, thank you for protecting us in the war.â
In the tent, Pansa David first bowed to Kuro and then said, âExcuse me, why are you looking for me?â
This man is very tall, at least 2.5 meters. Although he looks very thin, there is always a sense of strength in his movements. Through his exposed arms and neck, I can tell that his muscles should be good.
But thatâs not the most important thing â¦
Bang!
Crash!
The chain began to rattle.
Doflamingo appeared ferocious. âThis aura, how many years has it been? So many generations, you still havenât forgotten it. Kill them and let me out! Pansa, your surname is Pansa!â
David only glanced at Doflamingo and ignored him. He stood there with his eyebrows lowered and his hands clasped together, looking slightly nervous, like a countryman who had never seen the world.
âNo, he was.â
âPansa Davidâ¦â
Kuro said, âIâm a straightforward person, so Iâll get straight to the point. Do you⦠want to be king?â
The air seemed to freeze.
The people in the tent, whether CP0 or Doflamingo, stared at David.
âKing?â
David subconsciously asked, âWhat king?â
âHere.â
Kuro pointed to the land. âThis land, this king named Dressrosa.â
Hearing this, Davidâs body shook. He quickly reacted and smiled bitterly. âMarine, the king of Dressrosa is King Riku.â
âHe abdicated, immediately,â Kuro said.
âIâm just a pig that raises pigs. Iâm just a commoner. Even if King Riku wants to abdicate, he should give it to Princess Viola or other nobles with bloodline and qualifications,â David said honestly.
âCivilian? Are you serious? You still have a noble title in Dressrosa.â Kuro raised his eyebrows.
âHuh? Noble?â
David seemed to be a little frightened and said blankly, âHow can that be? We canât be nobles. My father is a pig, my grandfather is a pig, so is my great-grandfather. All of our families are nobles. We are not nobles.â
Kuro bit his cigar and asked again, âYou donât know? Thatâs not a big problem. My question now is whether you want to be king.â
David smiled bitterly and bowed. âMarine, donât make fun of me. If thereâs nothing else, Iâll go first. I havenât finished cleaning up the pig corpses at home.â
With that, he walked out of the tent without waiting for Kuro to speak.
Kuro narrowed his eyes and looked at Davidâs back and said, âThe aura is quite strong, but itâs a little weird. Itâs strong, but weak⦠also very weak.â
âIt looks like a sword that is rusty to the point of being broken,â Leda added.
âThatâs right, itâs that kind of feeling. Whatâs hidden in this manâs heart⦠Now, he lacks energy.â
Kuro nodded. âHey, Dover, you havenât forgotten anything just now, right? Forget it, you wonât say anything.â
âHey, he doesnât want to be one. Hey, Kuro, since he doesnât want to, letâs change it!â Doflamingo laughed.
âShut up, loser. You have no right to speak now.â
Kuro glanced at him and said, âBut if he doesnât want to⦠letâs talk about it at length. In addition to this, we have to draw up a few good candidates.â
He did not want to walk out of this tent, at least not before Sengoku came.
A smile is definitely not about this.
And if these CP0s are not optimistic about him, Doflamingo will die.
But this person was captured by their Marines. Marines either kill people in battle or throw them into Impel Down and kill people in private. It is not their style.
Or rather, most Marines pursue procedural justice, which is to capture pirates and hand them over to Judicial Island for trial.
There were very few people like Kuro who killed anyone they encountered.
Outside the tent, the man with the black and white pupil mask looked at Davidâs back and dialed a small Den Den Mushiâ¦
Somewhere in Dressrosa.
In a dark place.
A figure hung up the Den Den Mushi.
âHey, have you heard? Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un has made a decision to withdraw King Riku from the throne. Itâs not one of our families who will take over. He wants the Pansa family.â
âPansa? How is that possible? That family has become a laughing stock. They should be fooled now.â Another figure said.
âThe Pansa family rejected this matter, but it is always a problem.â
âThen let him disappear. That existence, I told you that keeping it is a threat.â
âWe canât do it now. Marines are watching. We have to do it another wayâ¦â
⦠.
âIs it going to rainâ¦â
In the street, David looked up at the gloomy sky and muttered, âI have to hurry. If it rains later, the blood of the pig corpse will flow everywhere and cause trouble for other neighbors.â
He was almost back to his original place.
âHey! David!â
Suddenly, a voice sounded nearby.
With a whoosh, a bag of trash was thrown at David.
David turned around and saw a fierce-looking mother-in-law saying, âItâs all your fault, David. Why did you walk forward? You should have stopped when I called you, so that the trash canât hit you.â
âIâm sorry, Granny.â
David bowed his head in apology and bent down to pick up the trash. âAre you asking me to throw out the trash?â
âThatâs right, David, you better throw yourself away too!â Granny said to him fiercely.
David smiled and continued walking with the trash.
The direction in which he threw the trash was in a more remote place. He had to speed up, otherwise, it would be too late to go back and clean up when it rained.
âDavid, I have no money, give me some money!â
A sloppy and roguish person appeared in front of David and said as if it was natural.
âAh⦠Sorry, I donât have any money,â David said honestly.
Bang!
A fist slammed into his chest.
âYou donât have money⦠Ah! It hurts, David, are you made of iron?! How can you fix it! You are already angry enough!â The man shouted.
âIf this punch can calm you downâ¦â David smiled.
âDavid! Letâs perform acrobatics. The house is gone and itâs already painful enough!â
âHahaha, stop it. David is just a pig farmer. How can he perform acrobatics and how can he reassemble pigs?â
âThatâs not badâ¦â
Everyone on the street was laughing at him.
This is not the first time that the Pansa Family has become a laughing stock in this area.
No one knows when this tradition began.
In any case, for as long as these adults can remember, the Pansa family should be the target of their jokes and teasing.
The inertia of humans is terrible. Once they have thought of something since they were young and they have not corrected it, they will think of it that way for the rest of their lives.
Teasing the Pansa Family seems to be a tradition in their bones. I donât know when it startedâ¦
Accompanied by the teasing of the neighbors, a voice appeared in Davidâs mind.
âDavid, you have to remember that our Pansa family has been knights for generations! You have to remember the virtue of knights. What about those who are in trouble? We should help them, but we canât draw our swords. We donât have swords and we are not allowed to have swords.â
âDavid, you have to remember that we are betrayed people, we are unwanted people!â
âDavid, the Donquixote Family betrayed us!â
His fatherâs voice sounded in his mind from time to time.
David looked up and thought about what the Marine had said.
âNobleâ¦â
He murmured and then shook his head. âNo, I am not a noble. We were never nobles.â
Then, he lowered his head and looked at his hand holding the trash.
âWe are just attendants, just knights, just⦠swords that no one has the right to wield.â
âAnd, heâs just a little pig.â
He shook his head and continued walking.
Behind him, in a corner of a building that had not been completely removed, Moore leaned against the wall and slightly adjusted the brim of his Marine hat, pressing it lower, and a smile appeared on his lips.
âIndeed, a very interesting manâ¦â
âHey, David!â
When David threw away the garbage and turned to go back, a voice stopped him.
David turned around and said in a daze, âWallis⦠What happened to you?â
The freckled boy, Wallis, had a bruised face and was staring at David with hatred.
âHow dare you say that?! Itâs because you called Marine to help and Dad beat me up!â Wallis gritted his teeth.
âIs that so? Sorry,â David said, bowing his head.
âStop it!â
Wallis said fiercely: âI also want revenge on you! You come with me!â
With that, he took Davidâs hand and forcefully pulled him to the other end.
âUh, where are we going?â
âOf course itâs to teach you a lesson.â
Wallis said something and stopped speaking.
It was not until he pulled David to an empty ruin that he chuckled. âI canât beat you, but someone can. I happened to meet some people who also wanted to tease you, so I brought you here!â
âYou, who have never been in pain, feel what pain is today!â
Wallis bared his teeth. âCome out! My friends!â
A group of people gradually walked out of the ruins and surrounded the two of them.
These people were strong and fierce. They were either holding guns or knives.
One of them was a strong man more than three meters tall with two huge axes on his back.
They approached with unfriendly expressions. When they saw David, they grinned.
âSee that!â
Wallis looked up proudly. âThese are the friends I just made. I was in pain just now when I met them. They said they could make you feel pain too, so I brought you here. You are finished, David! Incompetent David!â
The strong man licked his tongue and grinned. âOh? You are David? Pansa David?â
âYes, thisâ¦â
Bang!
Before David could finish, a gunshot rang out.
His pupils shrank and he subconsciously turned sideways.
A blood flower appeared on his shoulder.
The person next to him raised his flintlock and revealed killing intent.
