Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Chapter 288

Pathetic Person

“Gobbling the old family?”

Hernando’s blue veins were exposed. “You actually said that I am a gnaw? What do you know, you…”

He looked at the pool of blood and paused for a moment before saying, “If you can come in, it means that Hughtika…”

“Oh, that woman. She is a pirate and I am Marine. It is natural for Marine to kill pirates.”

Kuro held Autumn Water tightly and looked directly at Hernando. “Next is you, Pirate!”

“You bastard!!”

Hernando’s fists burst out with airflow. With a thud, his footsteps left a big pit on the ground and he went straight to Kuro.

“You didn’t even know where I was when I was a Marine and a Pirate. You juniors have no right to call me a Pirate!”

Dang!

The blade, with golden electric light, was stuck in Hernando’s fist. Kuro threw out a knife and with a majestic force, Hernando was thrown out. His body rotated in the low altitude and his feet stepped on the rock wall with a bang. With this force, he swept towards Kuro again.

Kuro held the blade horizontally in front of him. He stretched out two fingers and wiped the blade.

“Unlike Zephyr, I don’t like to waste time here.”

Golden light filled the entire blade of Autumn Water.

“Then I will kill you first!”

The airflow of Hernando’s fist exploded more deeply, and his eyes were obviously determined. He knew that he was not Kuro’s opponent, but he did not say that he must fight with this Marine.

As long as I can break out of his blockade, run out of the cave, and find Zephyr!

Kuro held the handle of the knife with both hands and raised it up high. Without looking at Hernando, he let him rush over and his fists hit his body directly.

“Did it hit?”

Even Hernando was a little surprised. How could such a man be hit so easily?

However, in the next moment, his fist passed through Kuro’s body and the body in front of him began to fade.

It was an afterimage!

“Unseen God’s Wind and Killing Sword: Flood Dragon!”

With a low shout, the golden light appeared from the side and fell fiercely, hitting Hernando.

Hernando gritted his teeth and prepared to resist this move and rush out of the cave.

Anyway, he just wanted to rush out.

Chi!

The blade broke a hole in his waist, making Hernando grunt, but he still rushed forward.

He never uses Armament Haki, that would be too wasteful. His Haki is not deep, and his limited Haki is basically concentrated in his fists.

Not to mention that he had a battle with Zephyr. Although he still had strength left, this strength was reserved for him to use later, not now. Being injured also gave Zephyr an advantage.

“Nothing?”

However, Hernando had just rushed out a few steps when he came back to his senses and touched his body. There were no other injuries on his body except for the cut.

Is that the power of that powerful slash?

He turned his head and looked doubtfully at Kuro, who was beginning to put his knife back into its sheath.

“Whatever, this is an opportunity!”

Hernando accelerated and almost rushed out of the hole.

Find Zephyr and let him kill him. Then, his mission will be completed and he will no longer have to suffer as a pirate!

“Sigh… Why are you so persistent?”

Behind him, there was a soft sigh.

Hernando’s rushing footsteps stopped and he walked slower and slower until he was walking. He lowered his head and sweat gradually flowed down his face.

“Oh? It seems that you heard it…”

“The soft sound of the divine wind.”

Chi!

Blood mist burst out of Hernando’s body like a fountain, and blood spurted out from all parts of his body and fell to the ground, forming a large amount of blood.

Plop.

Hernando fell to the ground, his head still looking ahead. He had come out of the hole, but he no longer had the strength to move.

From his gaze, he could see the thin figure lying in a pool of blood in front of him.

Huotica collapsed there with her eyes closed and a faint smile on her lips.

He seemed to have fulfilled some wish.

“Houdica…”

Hernando reluctantly stretched out his hand and spread his fingers in that direction. “The only thing I feel guilty about is you. You could have been an excellent Marine, there is no need to accompany me…”

“That’s what I thought.”

Kuro walked over and stood in front of Hernando, blocking Hernando’s view, only allowing him to see the back of his cloak. The big word ‘Justice’ behind the cloak made him lose focus for a moment.

Kuro fixed his eyes on the front and said, “That Marine said everything, but ah… If Zephyr is willing, I won’t stop him, but if he is not willing, why are you forcing an old man?”

“Because of Zephyr, Master Zephyr has fallen. If he doesn’t kill people, in this gradually chaotic era, one day, he will be abandoned by the times. I don’t want to see Master Zephyr being abandoned. I want to see Master Zephyr get back on his feet!”

“For this, I will give up everything!”

Hernando looked up and stared resentfully at the back of Kuro’s head. “Do you know what you are stopping? You let a good Marine fall from grace!”

“Stop joking, bastard!”

Kuro turned his head and looked at him disdainfully. “It’s not bad to say that you’re an old gnome. The younger generation surpassing the older generation is the correct process. If it’s the other way around, it’s worse with each generation. You, who don’t understand this, can only reach this level.”

“In contrast, you say that Zephyra has fallen? He understands better than you and knows that there are some things that he can’t do himself, so he set his sights on the younger generation and trained batch after batch of good Marines.”

“Although you are now a hateful pirate, I have to say, who did you rely on to cause such a high threat?”

Listening to Kuro’s words, Hernando became excited: “It’s precisely because of this, it’s precisely because of this! Master Zephyr is not allowed to fall. I must let him pull himself together. Only in this way can he be worthy of the Master Zephyr in my heart!”

“Oh.”

Kuro raised Autumn Water and his eyes were cold. “It seems that not only do you eat the old family, but you are also quite selfish. The changes of the world will not go according to what you think. You don’t even understand this, it is indeed easy for you to fall.”

“I’ll give you some respect. Zephyra can’t kill you, but I can. As a pirate, you are just like that Shutica. Being killed by a Marine like me is not an embarrassment to your own wishes.”

“You can’t…”

Chi!

Hernando widened his eyes and was about to open his mouth when Autumn Water fell and pierced his heart from behind.

He opened his mouth and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with unwillingness. His hand slowly moved in the direction of the stone ball that flew out. He opened his fingers as if he wanted to hold something.

“Zefa…”

“Teacher…”

Kuro pulled out Autumn Water, shook out the blood, and sheathed his sword.

“Pathetic person,” he sighed.
