Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Chapter 538

I’m Not Worthy

Two days later.

The ships docking at the new headquarters are already full. Marine representatives from all over the world have arrived, and those who haven’t arrived can’t because the ceremony is held today.

At the Sky Guardian Tower above the largest fortress, Kuro looked at the white squirming below and sighed. “It’s so lively.”

After the last meal, he came to look for the old man and stayed here for two days, watching the number of people gradually increase.

“Oh, Kuro, don’t look here, come in.”

Kizaru appeared behind him and greeted him.

“Got it.”

Kuro left the railing and followed Kizaru to the top of the Sky Guardian Pavilion.

It was an extremely spacious office, a typical Japanese tatami building. There was no sliding door and the front was wide open, just like Sakasugi’s style of doing things.

In the spacious office, Sakasugi was wearing a white formal suit. Under the formal suit was his previous scarlet shirt, a white cloak, and a Marine hat.

His beard had already taken shape and he looked more refined. When he saw the person, Sakasugi nodded and said, “You’re here.”

At this time, there was a row of chairs below him, two of which had been sat down.

Doberman, Onigumo, the representative figure of the Hawk Marine, has arrived.

“Oh, someone has arrived first.”

Kizaru smiled and walked straight forward and sat on a wide seat next to Sakasugi, while Kuro stood behind him.

In his position, he should have been watching Den Den Mushi videos below, but he was a subordinate of the old man, so he was brought in.

Those chairs were not something he could do in his position.

Even at the Vice-Admiral level, not everyone can sit on these chairs.

Those who sit on this are either important figures with great fame or a faction, and they must at least be Vice-Admiral.

“Someone is already here.”

At the open door, a slightly hunched back walked in. It was Crane.

There were three people behind Crane.

One was Tina, one was Smoker, and the other was wearing a blue hat and a wide robe with a green pattern, with a purple belt around his waist, very much like the attire of the Kano Country. He was holding a feather fan in his hand and wearing a Marine cape. He had a mustache, and the beard on his chin was like a sword. He looked very resourceful.

“That is…”

Kuro was stunned for a moment. It was not strange for Tina to follow him in. Smoker was also reasonable.

Although Garp had arrived, he was essentially semi-retired and probably played with Sengoku in some room. It was impossible for Smoker to play with Garp there. He wanted to enter the power center of Marine, so he had to come in today. Tina would let him join her, which was normal.

After all, they had agreed last time. After Smoker treated him last time, Kuro invited him to come with him, but he was rejected.

If he followed him, he would officially join Kizaru’s faction, and Smoker didn’t seem to want to.

The power of the Kuzan faction is not without power. If he grows up, he can re-establish the flag of this faction. If he joins the Kizaru faction, it can be said that the last power will be absorbed. Smoker has his own research and will not do that.

And if Crane brought him, it would be different, just out of care.

But this was the first time he had seen the one with the beard, but… he could guess who it was.

“Little Kuro, long time no see.”

Tsuru sat in the first seat on the left below Sakasugi and smiled at Kuro.

“Long time no see, Granny Crane.” Kuro nodded.

“Are you Rear Admiral Luciru Kuro?”

The mustached man waved his feather fan and chuckled. “Nice to meet you, I am Kong Ming. I often hear about you on the sea.”

“No, no, no, you don’t have to be so polite,” Kuro said quickly.

“Ohhh…”

Kong Ming chuckled. “I hope we can work together to kill those hateful pirates!”

When he said the last word, his tone became much heavier.

Although this is Crane’s faction, he is a Headquarters Vice-Admiral and has his own small faction, and his style of doing things is more inclined to the Hawk.

Because he was deeply hurt by pirates when he was young, it caused him to have a deep hatred for pirates and he vowed to rely on his own wisdom to eliminate pirates. With his wisdom, he has killed many pirates and is also a famous Marine in the New World.

And he admired Kuro very much.

Kuro’s style of doing things was very much to his taste.

With great strength, pirates are either killed or killed.

Moreover, he is the successor of a large faction. If we are on good terms with him, those pirates will tremble in this world under their cooperation!

“Speaking of which, I haven’t congratulated you yet, Rear Admiral Kuro, no, Kuro…”

“Cough!”

Crane suddenly coughed and interrupted Kong Ming. “Well, Kong Ming, now is the time for a meeting.”

“Oh, okay, Granny Crane.”

Kong Ming shook his feather fan and smiled without saying anything.

“Huh? Congratulations on what?”

Kuro gave him a strange look and frowned.

Did something happen to Cass again?

That was his first reaction.

But that’s not right.

Leda had just told him yesterday that Cass had come to the new headquarters, and now they were together. She knew that something was going on.

“What a strange person. Is this person called Fujin?”

Kuro shook his head in his heart. Although this Kong Ming had the same name as the Prime Minister in his previous life, Kuro felt that they were not on the same level.

There are many people who occupy names.

The armadillo under him not only takes up a name but also a face. Isn’t he still deaf?

As Crane sat down, Marines entered this place one after another.

“Yo, Boss Sakasugi, Brother Polusalino.”

A man in khaki casual clothes with a dudou around his waist walked in with his hands in his pockets. He greeted them and sat on the third seat on the right.

“Jiaji, you’re here too. How strange,” Kizaru said in surprise.

“Mary Joa gave it to Green Bull, so I came over.”

Kaji shrugged and laughed strangely for a while. He leaned against the chair and waved at Kuro behind Kizaru. “Long time no see, little brother Kuro, aren’t you coming to sit?”

“Brother Jiji, long time no see, I won’t sit, just stand here.” Kuro smiled at him.

As a Rear Admiral, why is he sitting in this chair? It seems that he has no rules.

Behind the counter was Momousagi, who revealed a pair of long legs. She walked in and sat on the second chair on the right.

“Ah, Sister Crane, you’re here too.”

Ji Yuan first smiled at Crane, then looked at Kuro, “Kuro, what are you standing there for?”

What else can I do but stand?

Kuro rolled his eyes. What is wrong with these people? Why do they always want me to sit there?

Am I worthy?

I’m not worthy.
