Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Blood burst out of Luffy’s chest and splashed on the ground.

“Luffy!!”

The Straw Hats let out a scream and time seemed to have stopped in the air. There was a huge hole in Luffy’s chest. The hole opened from the chest and instead of extending diagonally, it spread out and cracked like a fragment.

Luffy’s eyes rolled up and his mouth opened. His body wanted to fall, but because he was tied up by the Lifeless Space Killer, he couldn’t move.

But soon, Luffy’s pupils came back. He gritted his teeth and there seemed to be liquid surging in his swollen arm, trying to mend the middle of his body, but the surging liquid only gathered in his arm and could not move forward. At the top, the blood-colored ribbon of the Lifeless Space Kill wrapped around his arm fiercely, stopping the surging thing.

“Want to recover?”

Kuro revealed a sinister smile. “My strength is not so easy to break through! You want to defeat me in one go? You have to have the qualifications!”

It doesn’t matter if it’s a liquid gel or something else, as long as it’s power, it’s enough. The Lifeless Space Kill itself is a conceptualized power, and it can be used to offset and wear down the power of others. The Float-Float Fruit itself has been developed by him, and it is best used to ‘bind’ the power of others.

He could bind Teach’s ability, and so could Straw Hat’s ability.

This guy concentrated all his strength in his fists, which was exactly what Kuro wanted. In this case, he could not recover.

Want to burn your life?

You have to pay attention to the basic law!

As for that hard body…

Although there is no way to hit him, when did Kuro say that he can only hit him?

The number one swordsman in the world is not just for show.

The slash was enough to cut it open.

Luffy’s inflated arms exerted strength and pulled the ribbon bit by bit, even Kuro’s body shook.

“Don’t move!”

Kuro opened his eyes and the Autumn Water in his hand slashed down again.

Bang!

But at this moment, a foot was stuck on his wrist. Luffy’s leg was stretched straight and he kicked the wrist to stop Kuro from moving, and the other foot also kicked out…

**TIP**

The soles of his straw sandals hit Kuro’s cheek and he fell back.

“You…”

Kuro reached out with his other hand and grabbed Luffy’s ankle, squeezing it hard and moving it away bit by bit. His face was gloomy.

“Bastard!!”

Kuro gritted his teeth and spat out the words. Autumn Water pushed forward and directly pushed Luffy’s other foot away and slashed at Luffy’s neck.

DIE!!!

Boom!!

A Haoshoku attacked with precision, causing Kuro to pause. At this moment, Luffy roared and slammed his head against Kuro’s forehead.

Kuro’s entire body stiffened and his eyes happened to catch a glimpse of Shanks, who was on the execution platform with a solemn expression.

Red hair …

“Oh oh oh!!”

Luffy waved his arms, and in this moment of pause, he actually swung Kuro’s body hard and was about to hit the ground. The ribbon on his arms began to loosen a little.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, there was a gust of wind and the ribbon grabbed Luffy’s arm tightly again. Kuro, who fell down, turned into an afterimage and appeared beside Luffy. Then, a hand grabbed his head and his body rushed forward. At the same time, a black light quickly rushed forward.

Chi!!

Shanks, who was on the execution platform, had his heart pierced by a black blade. He lowered his head and looked at Autumn Water, who had pierced through his chest.

Soon, Kuro appeared on the execution platform. He grabbed Luffy’s head and quickly grabbed Autumn Water with one hand. At the same time, he kicked Shanks down. His body rotated and his other hand went down, pressing Luffy on the execution platform.

Bang!!

The execution platform was smashed by this huge force and Luffy’s head was smashed into a depression, causing his head to fall to the ground and his hands were tied by ribbons as he knelt there.

“You still have a trick up your sleeve…”

Kuro straightened up and stepped on Luffy’s head. He looked down at Shanks, who had fallen to the ground and was almost motionless.

“Your collarbone was pierced and you suffered so much torture in Impel Down. I thought your power had disappeared. What a pity…”

Kuro said ferociously, “I was so close to breaking away. This kid is very talented in fighting. If he breaks free again, he won’t fall for it again, and then it will be a long battle. But I won’t give him a chance. I have never lost since my debut. No matter who I fight against, I have never failed to kill anyone!”

The ribbon that bound Luffy gradually expanded and began to wrap around his body like a big chain, binding his body and making him unable to move except for his head.

“Damn it, ha, ha… I can’t move!”

No matter how Luffy struggled, the ribbon would not break. The absolute lethality contained in it was also eroding his body, which was equal to his recovery ability.

The wound on his chest made him gasp for breath as he struggled.

My consciousness is starting to blur. If I don’t break free soon…

“Hey, Bucky!”

Kuro suddenly called out.

“Eh?”

Bucky, who was going in and out of the channel at the edge, looked like he was fighting, but he was actually holding Den Den Mushi. He quickly hid Den Mushi and pointed to the pirates in front of him and said righteously, “Sa, pirates, taste my power!”

“Turn your Den Den Mushi on me!” Kuro shouted.

He did not care about Bucky’s acting and was not interested in teasing him at this time, so he said it directly.

“Electricity, Den Den Mushi…”

Bucky was about to retort, but he felt that Kuro’s tone was wrong, so he took it out and aimed it at Kuro.

That is a live Den Den Mushi.

The Den Den Mushi that was set up in the surroundings had actually been destroyed during the battle with Tiki, but it didn’t matter. It was enough for Kuro to know that Bucky had one.

In all the places in the world where the live broadcast can be seen, on the screen, Kuro raised Autumn Water and roared, “Sa, world!”

“Look, this is what happens to those who disobey Marine! To all the pirates in the world, or the dregs who want to be pirates, they are not used to being Yonkō (Four Emperors) or the so-called Pirate King. The only outcome for you is to be on the execution platform and become like this, miserable and lowly…”

“Be beheaded by me!!”

… .

On the sea, a huge, palace-like ship was leading a fleet on the sea.

This is Dressrosa’s fleet.

On the deck of the first ship, there was a huge screen on the mast. David watched Kuro’s declaration in the live broadcast and secretly clenched his fists with excitement on his face.

“Hey, hey, hey…”

But at this moment, a strange laugh appeared beside him. The sound made David frown and he turned to look.

In the sky behind him, a man in a prison uniform and sunglasses was floating in the air, smiling strangely at David.

“Long time no see, Pansa David…”
