Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Kuro was also ‘lively’ somewhere in the New World during the New Year in the Country of Peace.

Shuixian Star Island is the end of the journey on the sea. If you go further, it will be an endless sea. The needle can’t record any magnetic force because there are no islands in front of it, so it can’t be recorded.

“Rubber rubber…”

In the center of the island, there was a ball of darkness, and in the darkness, a flame suddenly rushed out with a dark and huge fist, breaking through the air.

“Hellfire Spear!!”

… .

Half a month later.

Marine Headquarters.

Sakasugi stared at the young man who had suddenly arrived and a rare smile appeared on his gloomy face. “You haven’t been back for a year.”

“Didn’t you come back to report?”

The young man walked over and handed in a stack of reports. Then, he sat back on the sofa and took out a cigar and lit it. “The details are all here.”

“This kind of thing, wait a moment.”

Sakasugi did not look at the report that had been handed in. At his level, looking at the report and not looking at it were two different things.

Especially since this was the young man he admired the most.

‘Luciru Kuro.’

After the New Year, Kuro came to the headquarters to report.

“I heard that Kuzan took a position on your side?” Sakasugi asked.

“Yes, it’s much better than him swaying on the sea. At least there’s a place to tie him up and he doesn’t have to be a pirate.” Kuro answered indifferently.

In the past, the two of them did not like each other in the Marine Corps, but it does not mean that they are really mortal enemies. On the contrary, there is still a lot of camaraderie between them. Otherwise, they would not have held back during the battle for the position of Marshal.

“Well… that’s good. That idiot is not clear-headed. Let him stay there. Don’t wander in the sea, or it will become a Marine shame.”

After Sakasugi finished speaking, he looked up at Kuro. “The Poneglyph of the Country of Peace. Are you sure that no one copied it at that time?”

Kuro raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment. “I don’t think so. That thing is not in the palace of the Guardian Tower in the City of Flowers. It is kept by the Emperor. After she surrendered to the Country of Peace, the thing came to me. According to her, no one found the Poneglyph she hid.”

Poneglyph, Red Poneglyph, also known as Road Sign.

This thing was originally owned by Kaido and was probably hidden on the Ghost Island before, but that place was destroyed by Kuro a long time ago. Later, when he killed Kaido and arrived in the Country of Peace, that child Baohuang surrendered and took out that thing.

As for that thing, he could not understand it. This thing is also a scourge in his hands and it is easy to be targeted, so he directly handed it over to the World Government. Of course, in order to satisfy his desire to collect, he made a copy and then rose into the sky.

Such strange things are rare, it would be a pity not to leave a copy.

If they want to find him, they should go to Mariejois. What does it have to do with Kuro?

“Then look at this intelligence.”

Sakasugi took out a document, stood up and walked to Kuro, put the document on the table next to him, then walked to the other sofa and sat down, also smoking.

“Yes?”

Kuro picked up the document and scanned it. The first few words caught his attention.

“Shui Xian Star Island battle situation…?” Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

He recited it and was stunned.

Waterfront Star Island?

That island seems to be the end of the journey.

Kuro looked down and his eyes widened. “Titch and Straw Hat are at war?”

The content was a piece of intelligence. Straw Hat Kid and Blackbeard met on the Shuixian Star Island and started a war, but because the island was broken, the two sides did not win and the battle was not concluded.

Sakasugi bit the steam cigar given by Kuro and blew out a mouthful of straight smoke. He slowly nodded and said, “This group of pirates fought and reached the end point. If you hadn’t guaranteed to me that the Poneglyph of the Country of Peace was not leaked, I would have thought that they had found all the Poneglyph and were going to find the so-called One Piece.”

“Ah? It’s impossible, there are only two pieces of Poneglyph known… Didn’t you want four pieces?” Kuro asked.

The World Government knows two pieces. One is in Kaido and the other is in Big Mom. Katakuri is a Shichibukai. Although there are no conditions here in Kuro, there are conditions for the World Government. There is no way to get the Poneglyph.

Moreover, there are too few people in the world who can understand this thing. At present, only Nico Robin is known. There is no use for it. The World Government might as well give up Katakuri’s Poneglyph.

As for Kuro, he also knows that there is another piece of Zowu, but similarly, others don’t know, and he is too lazy to get it. Straw Hat and others passed through Zowu before the Kingdom of Peace. With Nico Robin here, they have already understood it, and there is no need to keep it.

There was still one piece missing.

“Blackbeard knows the content of that Poneglyph,” Sakasugi said.

Kuro was shocked. “What? He knows?”

“Yes, according to the intelligence, he knows.” Sakasugi nodded and said, “They started a battle on the Waterfront Star Island. The battle was very fierce, which made us suspect that there is also information about Poneglyph in the hands of Straw Hat. He has also been to Totto Land. If there is… If there is, then it is intelligence that both sides have road signs, and we can’t know whether they exchanged intelligence or one side robbed the other, but the worst-case scenario is to be prepared.”

“Hiss…”

Kuro took a breath and muttered, “That’s a little exaggerated.”

He was just here to report his work. Why did he hear such explosive news?

Straw Hat and the others still had the piece of Zowu. If they really exchanged information with Teach, or got information about Teach, or Teach got information about them, then they had three pieces. The only thing missing was the piece of the Country of Peace.

Which means …

“They will fight us.”

Crane walked in from outside with a solemn expression. “The higher-ups have confirmed that we have to take the initiative to capture Straw Hat and Blackbeard and completely destroy their forces.”

“Hey, are you serious?”

Kuro stood up with a shocked expression. “Taking the initiative to attack, that means we have to fight the New World directly? That will be like before, right?”

Marines were driven out by pirates in the New World in the past few decades. Their Basic Board is too big and it is impossible for them to take full care of the New World. Now, if they want to march again, the Four Seas and the first half of the New World will be in chaos again.

“We have no choice. The higher-ups don’t want another Roger. That will cause more chaos.”

Crane glanced at Kuro and said, “The incident in the Country of Peace also made the higher-ups determined to take the initiative to attack.”

Sakasugi clenched his fists and his fists flashed red. “This is a good opportunity to completely destroy the Pirate Era!”
