Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

A few days later.

When Kuro returned all the way back and killed the pirates who escaped along the way, there was no news of retreat from the front line. The war had been normal and Kuro did not receive any news.

On the Red Line.

Mariejois, centered on it, separates the first half of the Grand Line from the second half.

This is also the center of the highest power in the world.

The huge castle in the center is called ‘Pangu Palace’.

Between powers.

WP.

The atmosphere in the room was a little silent. The five old men in pose were speechless. Those who didn’t know better would think that they were sculptures.

“Damn Sakasugi!!”

The old man’s glasses glowed and his hand holding the knife tightened. He gritted his teeth and said, “He dares to refuse our order. He is too arrogant!”

The curly-haired old man said coldly: “Can’t you recognize yourself after becoming a Marine Fleet Admiral? You need to be taught a lesson!”

“Give him the position!” The red-skinned old man said sharply.

But they quickly fell into deep thought again.

“Not for the time being…”

The long-bearded old man said, “Sakaski is determined to fight with the pirates. If he goes down now, it will destroy the stability of the Marine and it will be more difficult to deal with.”

“Why can’t it work? Let’s get someone else to come up. Isn’t Kuro very good?” The old man said.

“He wants to look after the Country of Peace…” The old man on the map shook his head and said, “If we let him come back now, we might as well let the battle line continue. We need the Country of Peace.”

“Humph, we have become dependent on each other for so many years. Didn’t we have a good time without Doflamingo?” The old man with the knife snorted.

“It can’t be considered good. At that time, asking for help from the Underground World is not as stable as it is now.” The map elder said: “We can’t give up on the Country of Peace and have to admit that their weapons and Seastone skills are what we need. Now that we finally have a chance to look after them, we can’t throw them away.”

The red-skinned old man nodded. “It’s indeed impossible to throw… No matter how I think about it, it’s still the hateful Dorag! Why did he have to make a move at this time!”

“Of course.”

The long-bearded old man said: “It is indeed very easy to break in at this stage. Our military power is in the New World, and they will certainly attack. Now, if we don’t call Marine back to deal with them, it will be very troublesome.”

It is indeed troublesome. The Marine elites are all in the New World, and the Marines left behind in the first half and the four seas have to look after the pirates in these waters. They have no time to deal with the Revolutionary Army.

This is different from the War Of The Best. This time, the scale is bigger. It is a full-scale war between Marines and pirates. When the pirates of the New World gather, they are not as large as the Whitebeard Pirates. They are much larger. Those silver medalists are the main force of this war.

They were the ones who gave the order to start the war. Of course, they knew the seriousness of the matter.

The map elder said slowly: “In the end, it’s because those little ghosts are too good at causing trouble. If it weren’t for the battle on the Shuixian Star Island, we wouldn’t have made such a decision. Now we can’t hold back. Sakasugi doesn’t listen to orders and wants to fight with the pirates. We can’t do anything for the time being. Now is not the time to deal with him. Let’s wait for the situation to stabilize.”

Even if it is dealt with, they have no one to replace them for the time being.

The only suitable Kuro is now guarding the Country of Peace. They will not change the person without confirming the stability of the Country of Peace.

Where can they find a Marine that is reliable, strong, does not discount their orders, and even has a good reputation among tenryubito.

Only Luciru Kuro proved his loyalty with his actions.

“Is there really no one else?” The red-skinned old man didn’t give up and asked, “Tenghu?”

The old man with the knife was the first to shake his head. “No one can convince the public. When these world conscripts come to power, the first to be unconvinced will be Kuro, and the Marine will be even more unstable.”

Fujitora?

They were not familiar with this man. Sakasugi was selected from the World Conscription Army. Although they knew in their lives that the position of Admiral was also given by them, their attitude towards the World Government was unknown.

The same goes for Green Bull. Although this person has been stationed in Mariejois for a long time, Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) does not like him. Moreover, this person has a strange habit of not eating and is as lazy as a vegetable.

“Indeed…”

The old man on the map nodded and said, “We also have to take Marine’s overall factors into account. We also know Kuro very well and his ability is outstanding. Although there are a lot of small problems, it is not a big deal. He has a lot of prestige in Marine. After Sakasugi retires, I have no problem with him becoming a Marshal. As for the others, they can’t.”

Kuro and the others knew him too well. They knew that this man had a lot of small problems. He loved money, he knew how to do business, and he was very rich. But that was the norm in the Marine Corps. This kind of thing was not even a problem for them, and the real ‘small problems’ were the problems of the territory.

This man has the habits of a pirate. After he settled in a place, he naturally categorized this place under his rule. As long as he has been to a place, he will pay taxes.

But this is only a small problem. The taxes of a few islands are nothing.

Compared to his strength and loyalty, that can be ignored.

Sakasugi resisted them and made them think of changing the Marshal, so the next one must be Kuro.

This is a consensus whether it is within Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) or within Marine.

Kuro is a rare man with prestige in the Marine and World Government. If he comes to power, then the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) will be much more comfortable, even more comfortable than during the Warring States Period.

Because even if Sengoku did a good job, sometimes he would not take their orders seriously.

It’s a Marine problem. They’ve always known that.

Are those powerful soldiers really so docile?

However, Kuro seemed to be on the same side as them, which was even rarer.

The curly-haired old man agreed: “It’s difficult for two generals to convince the public, let alone the rest of the people. It’s not like we can take Sengoku out of his retirement position and let him be the Marshal again.”

“He probably won’t agree.” The long-bearded old man said, “This war is indeed a little out of control. We can only wait for it to stabilize first.”

“Activate CP.” The red-skinned old man sighed, “Activate all of them and let them deal with the Revolutionary Army. The World Conference is less than a year away, we can’t make any mistakes at this time.”

“If we activate all CPs, we will lose a lot of intelligence.” The curly-haired old man frowned and said, “It is risky to do this.”

“There is no other way.” The old man with the knife said, “Let’s do it this way, I agree.”

“Seconded.”

“Seconded.”

“Seconded.”

The red-skinned old man hesitated for a while and finally sighed. “Okay, seconded.”

“Activate all CPs to deal with the Revolutionary Army!”
