Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Ogg waved his spear and turned to the man holding his daughter without looking at the fallen pirate on the ground.

“It’s okay, as long as I am here, I will protect you.”

“Your Highness Ogg…”

The man was infected by Ogg’s smile and was stunned for a moment.

“As long as His Highness is here, we will be fine!”

“Yes, His Highness is the strongest. Pirates are no match for His Highness!”

“Your Highness Ogg!”

“Your Highness Ogg!”

The people nearby cheered.

Aug looked at their sincere smiles and was a little stunned.

Yes, with me around, nothing will happen to this country!

Pirates, illegal merchants, those criminals, as long as I am here, no one will come near this country that is known as the ‘hunting ground’!

Krane Ogg had always thought so.

He is strong, he is very strong.

He learned Haki and fighting style from the ‘Guardian of the Kingdom’, and he surpassed him very early.

He also saved an old pirate and learned the top combat method of wearing everything.

It was already very strong. Everyone thought so, and he thought so too.

He is a powerhouse that only appears in the Krane Kingdom in a hundred years. He will save this country that has been used by pirates as a back garden for a hundred years!

… .

Again and again.

Every day, he repeated the battle and finished off the people who broke in and wanted to ‘hunt’.

Again and again.

Over and over …

“My daughter!!”

When Ogg arrived, all he saw was the man throwing himself on his daughter’s body and crying.

“Your Highness Ogg…”

When the man saw Ogg, he cried, “My daughter was killed by a pirate who suddenly broke in!”

A pirate?

Ogg turned around and saw a strong man carrying a dead pirate and said in a deep voice, “Your Highness…”

“What’s going on, Barber?” Og asked.

“We were careless. When we went to resist the pirates, this person sneaked in…” Barber lowered his head and said guiltily.

The pirate was very thin and there was only a small dagger at his waist.

And the man leaning over and crying is very strong. Dealing with that pirate should be something that can be done with one hand.

And those people who have been gathered together for a long time, there are so many people, why would they be killed by such a pirate?

‘Why?’

… .

“Your Highness, another pirate is here. They, they killed my wife!”

… .

“Your Highness, my father…”

… .

“Your Highness Ogg…”

“Your Highness Ogg…”

“Your Highness Ogg…”

… .

Like a nightmare, no matter how many pirates Klein Og killed and how many pirates he defeated in the nearby sea.

There will still be stragglers who break into this island and then…

Under everyone’s gaze, he did whatever he wanted.

No one resists …

‘Why?’

… .

“Barber, I want to recruit soldiers. Just the two of us are not enough to protect the country.”

“Your Highness, we can’t recruit soldiers.”

Barber said bitterly, “A long time ago, there were no soldiers in the Krane Kingdom. No matter how good the treatment is, the citizens are not willing to recruit soldiers. They are… afraid of pirates.”

“Why?” Ogg was very puzzled.

“I don’t know… maybe I’m an alternative.”

Barber smiled bitterly and then solemnly said to Ogg, “Your Highness, the future of the country is on you!”

‘Why?’

Why fear pirates …

Why not recruit soldiers and protect the country? Is it enough for one person?

Aren’t pirates and those illegal businessmen also going to die after stabbing them?

Why?

… .

“Resist! You resist! Pirates will die after one stab, just like this!”

On the street, Ogg deliberately caught a few living pirates, gathered the people, and stabbed a pirate to death in front of them.

“Look, he is dead! There is no need to be afraid of them, as long as they are like me, they are also flesh and blood, they will also die!”

However, no matter what Ogg said, his people still had no reaction and even could not bear it.

Even if he personally pulled someone over for him to execute the pirates, that person would not be able to do anything except tremble and cry.

At this moment, the shortcomings of the Kingdom of Krane’s proudest ‘kindness’ and ‘gentle’ virtues are exposed.

Ogg is tired …

… .

“Why not resist.”

Until that day, Ogg couldn’t help but ask an old man who had lost his children.

His situation was the same as the previous man. In front of everyone and many people, he was robbed of his property by a pirate who suddenly broke into the street and then killed his children.

When pirates killed people, there were many people in this street.

That pirate, ran away…

“What are you talking about, Your Highness… How can a pirate resist?”

The old man, who was kneeling on the ground and looking at the bodies of his children, looked up, his eyes full of numbness and confusion.

That expression made Og feel as if he had been struck by lightning. He just stood there, and the expression on his face gradually became dull and blank.

“Your Highness, pirates can’t resist, although we thank you for protecting us…”

The old man looked at Og’s expression and comforted him, “But those pirates are only here to plunder. Even if my luck is bad and my children are killed, I can’t resist. Otherwise, they will kill more people the next time they come. Just bear with it for a while. When you come, the pirates will retreat.”

“That’s right, how can pirates resist, we don’t have that power, unlike Your Highness Ogg…”

“Yes, Your Highness, we can’t resist the pirates. They are too scary.”

“That’s right, we have resisted once and again. Since a hundred years ago, we have been unable to resist the pirates.”

“Your Highness, please quickly resist the pirates and let them go.”

The people nearby said.

No resistance …

No resistance.

Is it… like this?

It’s like this …

Og looked at the citizens, their expressions full of confusion and numbness.

They are gentle and kind. They know how to help and comfort others.

Knowing that others have a tragedy, they will try their best to help.

Knowing that a family was killed by pirates, he took the initiative to complete the funeral.

But there was nothing …

Anger and defiance.

That day, the sun in the sky was obscured by dark clouds and it rained heavily.

Just like this country, there should not be sunny days.

This country …

‘He died very early.’

… .

“Barber, one person’s power is limited.”

On that day, Ogg, covered in blood, said coldly to the shocked Barber.

At his feet were his father, sister, and brother.

“I once naively thought that as long as I am strong enough, I can protect this country and save this country, but I was wrong. I can kill pirates and criminals, but I can’t kill the numbness of the people.”

“You say that I am a once-in-a-century genius of the Krane Kingdom, but there is no normal way for a genius like me. To save this country and save the people here, it is not enough with the strength of one person…”

“There is no end to killing pirates. I will grow old and die. It is unrealistic to pin your hopes on the next person like me.”

“I want to arouse the resistance of this country!”

“For this, I need hatred. They don’t dare to resist the pirates and the royal family, so I force them to resist!”

“All the sins are on me. Let the people fear me and hate me until they can’t stand it anymore and resist me!”

“As long as they resist the royal family, they will resist the pirates!”

“The one who saves this country should not be me or you. Only when this country is enlightened will this country… be saved!”

… .

“Kill!!!”

Looking at the flood of people rushing towards the steps, Krane Ogg showed fear and shouted, “Don’t come over! I am the king of this country!!”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and spread his fingers towards the citizens.

His gaze fell on Sag, who was charging at the front, and he roared, “Do you really have the courage to overthrow me!!”

“Yes, we will never be bullied again, whether it is pirates or kings!!!”

Sag shouted at him and stabbed the silver-white spear in his hand.

Ogg fixed his eyes on the silver-white spear coming towards his neck, and his eyes couldn’t help but drift away, looking from him to the excited citizens.

It was as if he wanted to remember these people.

Finally, his eyes fell on the Marine with the knife behind the crowd.

‘You’re asking me why?’

Because, of course …

Krane Ogg’s cold and gloomy face broke into a smile, just as it had back then, a smile like the sun.

I love this country deeply.

It was saved.

Chi!!
