Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

The Marines who had fainted had already woken up and quickly boarded the ship to their posts. Although they did not help much, they still came over. They could not blame Haoshoku and his murderous aura.

Most Vice-Admiral also failed to resist it.

Around the deck of the ship, Marines held their weapons tightly and patrolled everywhere, afraid that some heavyweight would appear in the sea.

This order was given by Kuro himself, because he was really injured, and not lightly.

It would be over if they encountered a difficult person at sea.

However, others did not care about this.

Seven elite Vice-Admiral and three Shichibukai. It doesn’t matter if they discover pirates.

Yes, just three. Two of them are now Shichibukai and one of them is former Shichibukai.

Not counting Bucky …

At this time, in a conference hall in the fortress group, several Vice-Admiral sat at a long table with Marines standing straight behind them.

“Why did you call me here? A meeting?”

At the head of the table, a man wrapped in bandages was talking.

Kuro’s head, face and even body are now wrapped in bandages, and his left hand and left foot are in a cast, only revealing his eyes and lips.

Even with Lida’s ability, he was still injured.

After all, Leda’s ability is not omnipotent, but it is already amazing that she can cure indelible injuries.

Back in the War of the Best, when he cut off the red hair, his hand was almost broken, but he was still cured by Leda, but his residual injuries had to be slowly healed.

The bandaged man bit a cigar and leaned back a little. He hissed again, gasped, and pushed forward again.

The few of them smoked cigars, causing the conference hall to be filled with smoke.

“Yes, Shichibukai’s proposal has been passed, so the power is in our hands. Since everyone is here, we can take the opportunity to consider it.” Onigumo said.

“Do you want to rest a little more?” Strawberry looked at Kuro and asked worriedly.

“It’s okay, I won’t die.”

Kuro waved his hand. “What can happen in a meeting? We’re just talking. The proposal is passed. Although we don’t know the specifics, you are experienced enough to know what’s going on. After all, after I submit the proposal, it will be perfected by you.”

Burning Mountain nodded and said, “It’s like this, regarding the proposal, it is up to our Marine to choose a Shichibukai candidate and no longer consider the World Government.”

Mole continued, “That’s true, but the World Government also needs to consider the enemy marked by the World Government. We have to pay attention to the impact.”

World Government Marked Enemy …

That was the Revolutionary Army.

As for whether the Revolutionary Army will become a Shichibukai…

Isn’t there a ready-made example?

If a few more came, the higher-ups would probably be so happy that they would die.

Of course, some things that offend tenryubito will not work.

“What about this authority, who is it for?” Kuro tapped his fingers on the table and asked.

Dalmatian thought for a moment and said, “Marine is under Marshal Sakasugi’s command, but it will be handed over to Admiral Kizaru.”

“I can only give it to him.”

Doberman said, “The other two are not qualified.”

Everyone here is an old traditional Marine, and they are not the same kind of people as the World conscripts, except for the former Admiral.

Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke with a strange expression. “Old man…”

The old man is still leading the Scientific Force and managing the Scientific Island of Vegapunk. As for the power of Sakasugi and Aokiji in the past, it was given to these elite Vice-Admiral.

The main reason is that Fujitora and Green Bull’s days are too short. Although they are generals, the power of generals is much smaller.

“The main thing is that you invited Crocodile. Do you have any thoughts about him?” Doberman looked over and said, “If it’s Crocodile, his combat power is enough.”

“There is this aspect.” Kuro nodded. “This person is much stronger than before. Whitebeard is also dead. He doesn’t have an unscrupulous target. According to the past intelligence… Forget it, I don’t have intelligence. Where is your intelligence?”

He might have information, but it was all in Crowe’s hands. He never looked.

“As for Crocodile…” Momonga thought for a while and said, “The intelligence says that nothing has happened to him recently. It seems that he is hoarding power, but he is more inclined to… retreat, as if he has gathered a group of human-like hippos as his subordinates on an island, and then there is nothing.”

Onigumo said, “I don’t have any objections to Shichibukai. He is strong enough, but he has failed…”

“Failure is not a big deal. There is a record of failure.” Mole said, “Most importantly, he has a criminal record and the nature of his failure is very bad. After him, Shichibukai, who has never lost before, failed in succession.”

What else could he do? The straw-hatted kid who killed his own life was like a god, clearing all the levels.

But there is some truth in the Mole’s words. Crocodile has a criminal record. Like Doflamingo, he is a classic example of a pirate stealing a country, but one is complete and the other is not.

But there are differences.

Crocodile had no interest in the country. He wanted Pluto.

But now…

Several Vice-Admiral fell silent. With Crocodile’s combat power, there is absolutely no problem, but they also have to pay attention to the impact. If the power is handed over to Marine, but the first choice of character is Crocodile who makes a kingdom turbulent, isn’t it a little bad?

Among them, the ones who are most afraid of being affected are Burning Mountain and Mole. These two people are doves and are more considerate.

Doberman and Onigumo are a little indifferent, but they think that power is in their own hands and they should be responsible for what they do.

Kuro and Strawberry, on the other hand, expressed that it didn’t matter. They, Fish, are not, Monkey… are also not. In short, the neutral party is fine with this aspect as long as nothing happens.

As for Smoker… he did not participate.

It was not that he was not allowed to participate, but this meeting was not spontaneously organized by Kuro. It was organized by these old Vice-Admiral. They invited Kuro because they recognized Kuro, and Kuro himself was qualified.

Although Smoker was also a Base Chief and an elite Vice-Admiral, in their eyes, he was still a little inferior.

He was not strong enough to have a meeting with them at that age.

“If he promises that there will be no more similar things like Alabasta, he can continue to assume the Shichibukai position.” Momonga thought for a while and said.

“But with this person’s arrogance, he may not accept our invitation,” Dalmatian said.

“He’s here, so what if you don’t accept it, are you going to jail?” Kuro laughed.

It was true that he invited Crocodile on board. He did not do anything, but it did not mean that others did not do anything.

Onigumo directly handcuffed him and Mr. 1 with Seastone.

But the rest, because of Kuro’s guarantee, did not do anything to him.

Their Marine is also grateful. Previously, Crocodile did not let the island split and saved those Marines who fainted. They have to accept this favor, but in order to prevent accidents, Seastone has to be handcuffed.

This made Crocodile’s face gloomy and he shouted something like “Sneak attack, can’t afford to play”.
