Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Chapter 105

I Miss You, Smoker

Kuro opened his mouth and finally sighed. He sat opposite Kizaru and unceremoniously took away the cigar on his table. He leaned there and crossed his legs to smoke.

“When you come back this time, don’t go out for the time being. Wait for orders in the headquarters and save me some trouble.”

Kizaru said after watching Kuro take the cigar and light the chain of actions that spewed out the smoke.

Kuro spat out a ball of white mist. “I say, old man, find me a place to camp. I promise not to cause trouble.”

He didn’t want to cause trouble. Who knows where so many things came from.

“Residence…”

Kizaru thought for a moment and said, “There is, the G-5 branch is short of some manpower, and there is also the G-1 branch. Sakasugi will be transferred back, you can go there and take a look.”

“Forget I said that.”

G-5? G-1?

Isn’t that the New World?

No matter where he goes, he will not go to the New World.

“I didn’t call you back just to ask you to stay here. You know, Portgas D. Ace has been caught and the Whitebeard Pirates are getting restless. A war is coming.”

It’s precisely because he knows that war is coming that he wants to seek external release!

“If you come back, you can communicate with Sentomaru. Sentomaru, learn from Kuro. He is… a very strong person.” Kizaru said with a strange expression.

“I understand.”

Sentomaru said seriously: “I am now a bodyguard of Vegapunk, but I will officially join the Marine in the future!”

Vegapunk, the top scientist with five hundred years of wisdom beyond the world, of course Kuro knows.

He had no problem with this wisdom that surpassed the world for five hundred years.

To be able to put the factor of Devil Fruit on a weapon and make something like a Pacifista, he can naturally be called a top scientist.

“Speaking of which…”

Kuro glanced at Sentomaru and said, “As the Captain of the Scientific Force, why are you here? Doesn’t that top scientist need protection?”

Sentomaru said, “This is confidential. Although you are also a Marine, some things cannot be said. I, Sentomaru, am the most tight-lipped man. I will never tell you. I am here to test the experimental results of the ‘Peaceist’.”

“…”

“Didn’t you say it?”

“Ah…”

Sentomaru was stunned for a moment and then said, “That was what I wanted to say just now. I don’t want to say it. No one can make me say it.”

“Yes, yes…”

Kuro nodded helplessly.

“Peacemaker…”

Kuro thought for a moment. He remembered this thing. Bartholomew Kuma’s body was a blueprint, Kizaru’s ability was the benchmark, and he created a combat robot.

Kizaru said, “The cost of building a Pacifista is the cost of a top-level Battleship. It is a very terrifying tool. Its appearance will greatly change the current Marine’s battle ecology.”

In Kuro’s eyes, the combat power of the Pacifista is to condense a thousand-person warship. On the sea, of course, the destructive power of the warship is the highest, but on land, the combat power of condensing the whole warship into one individual cannot be underestimated.

But it was just that.

At most, it can change the battle situation of ordinary pirates, and that kind of cost is destined not to be fully popularized.

“He was made with Bartholomew Kuma’s body and the old man’s ‘laser’ ability. It’s very powerful,” said Sentomaru.

“That kind of thing, there will always be a chance to experiment. You are a major now, go get your own documents, then stay in this department and don’t run around.” Kizaru laughed.

“I got it.”

Kuro took the cigar box from the table and reached out. “Old man, there’s not much stock left. Give me some.”

… .

After some small talk, Kuro came out of Kizaru’s office, along with Sentomaru.

Kizaru arranged for Sentomaru to follow him. His purpose was obvious. He wanted to keep an eye on him and not let him run around.

“It’s really hopeless…”

Kuro sighed. With the old man looking at him like this, it was obvious that he could not escape the war.

The thought of it depressed him.

“Kuro, what are you unhappy about?” Sentomaru asked.

“No… I feel pity for the damn world.” Kuro sighed miserably.

“Anyway, let’s go get the documents first and then go to dinner. It’s the first time we meet, you can treat me.”

“?”

Zhan Tao Maru tilted her head and said in confusion, “Yes, but… why me? Speaking of which, the old man has always said that you are very strong, and I also want to try it. How about the loser calls the winner Big Brother?”

Kizaru, who is also Kizaru’s direct subordinate, often praises Kuro. He has always been curious about Kuro’s combat power.

After all, he had seen Buck Arlo before. He should be very strong to be able to force more than 300 million pirates to surrender.

However, Sentomaru was a little unconvinced. He should be the strongest under the old man.

He had never seen the old man praise someone so much. He had long wanted to try it.

“Oh? You want to compete with me?” Kuro glanced at him.

“I am the man with the strongest defense!” Sentomaru said proudly, “I will not lose!”

He was full of anger.

Kuro revealed a mysterious smile. “It’s totally possible. The small garden behind the old man is very good. Just a dozen will do.”

… .

After a while, Kuro walked out with a comfortable smile and a bruised face.

He failed to touch Kuro.

Sentomaru will be a high-level Haki, named “Solo Feet”, but this move has to hit Kuro.

Kuro naturally wouldn’t use his ability. He only relied on his speed to beat up Sentomaru.

It was very comfortable. The depressed mood just now was completely liberated.

“Brother Kuro.”

Listening to the obedient call of Sentomaru, Kuro smiled and patted the tall man’s arm, “Very good, treat me to dinner, little brother Sentomaru.”

At this time, Leda and Chlo? also came back. Chlo? was carrying big and small bags and Leda was licking ice cream. She saw Kuro and quickly greeted him.

“Let me introduce you, my new little brother, Battle Peach Maru. Battle Peach Maru, this is my direct subordinates, Leda and Crowe, one is a Headquarters First Lieutenant and the other is a Headquarters Second Lieutenant. Today, Battle Peach Maru is celebrating our promotion and wants to treat us to a meal. Let’s go get the promotion documents and find a place.”

It’s just a treat, why are you so excited…

Sentomaru didn’t understand. It’s a treat, how much can it cost?

After receiving the document from Headquarters, Kuro led a group of people and prepared to go to the rear city of Marien Vando. However, at this time, he heard a familiar voice on the port.

An old smoker with his hair combed back upside down swaggered down from the ship and was talking to the lady behind him with glasses and a knife.

When he saw who it was, Kuro, who was in a good mood just now, suddenly felt less wonderful.

“Si, Mo, Ge!”

Kuro’s eyes widened and his body turned into a shadow that went straight for him.

The person who came down was Smoker. He was talking to Tashigi when he heard a loud shout.

The sound made him feel a little cold. Before Smoker could react, a figure appeared in front of him and grabbed his arm.

Haki!

Kuro’s wrist was covered with Armament Haki and he grabbed Smoker’s wrist to prevent him from elementalizing and grinned at him. “I missed you, Smoker!”
