Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

You Want to Be the Pirate King?

Den Den Mushi’s face obviously collapsed.

“Are you going to give up your promise!” Den Den Mushi gritted his teeth.

“I’ve already said that this matter violates my principles. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. Why are pirates calling a Marine? You should take care of yourself and keep your Shichibukai position.”

With that, Kuro hung up Den Den Mushi and raised his hand to slash towards the sea.

Bang!

Virgo slapped the small stone platform drifting under his feet and the momentum swayed it to the side, avoiding the slash that divided the sea near him.

His face became completely solemn.

In the beginning, there was a mistake.

This man is a metahuman. According to intelligence, in the sea, he has absolute control, which is even stronger than Aokiji.

But staying there is obviously not possible. He will be caught and it will cause trouble for Young Master.

Jumping into the sea? That would kill him.

However… he had to choose between death and hindering Young Master.

Virgo thought for a moment and dialed again.

“Ah… Vergo, he didn’t agree to my request. You know what to do, you can’t be caught.” Den Den Mushi made a sound.

“I understand, Young Master. I know what to do.”

Virgo nodded and said in a deep voice, “I won’t trouble you.”

On the Den Den Mushi’s side, there was a rare silence, and then he slowly said, “It has been hard on you all these years.”

Virgo smiled and shook his head. He stopped talking and cut off Den Den Mushi. Then he raised his head and stared at Kuro in the sky.

Kuro felt the decisive gaze through his sunglasses and couldn’t help but ask, “Have you finished your funeral?”

Virgo tore open his checkered coat, revealing his tough body. Under the cover of Armament Haki, he became a mass of darkness. He moved his feet and used Geppō (Moonwalk) to directly attack Kuro.

“Oh? Fight to the death? Why, Fiery Bird wants you to die? You are really ruthless, so-called pirate.”

Kuro swung his blade, emitting a brilliance. The extremely fast blade formed a slash and quickly slashed towards Vergo.

Then, he prepared to slash sideways.

In his expectation, Vergo would dodge this attack, and the position after dodging would definitely be hit by Kuro.

Bang!

Virgo did not dodge or avoid it, allowing the blade to hit his body. His left shoulder Armament Haki was untied, allowing the slash to cut off his arm, but his body rushed over.

If he used Armament Haki to defend himself, this slash would not be able to cut off his arm, but the powerful impact would make his body retreat, and Vergo did not want to do this now.

Although his arm was cut off, the slash passed through his body and completely blocked the momentum.

This time, even Kuro was stunned.

Vergo rushed over and clenched his right fist. With a tiger roar, he suddenly punched Kuro.

Dang!

The fist touched the blade, triggering a wave of air.

“Young Master, he is the man who will become the Pirate King!” Vergo shouted.

Kuro braced himself against Vergo’s fist and swung the blade away. As the blade waved, it brought a slash and swung Vergo’s body to the stone platform floating on the sea, creating a depression.

“You bastard…”

Kuro bit his cigar and exhaled a mouthful of smoke. “You’re quite brave. Should I say that you’re worthy of being a pirate?”

Virgo stood up from the depression, patted his body with one hand and threw away the broken sunglasses on his eyes, staring at Kuro with a burning gaze.

“A long time ago, I wanted to fight you.”

Virgo said, “You are the same as Young Master. The only difference is that you are hiding in the Marine. By the time you arrive at the Grand Line, no one can stop you.”

“You have been hiding in the East China Sea for so long. After arriving at the Grand Line, you have already become a force to be reckoned with. Now you want to take root in the New World and get rid of me… But you are wrong. Even if you win and help Smoker control G-5, he will not help you. That kind of person will not help you become the Pirate King of Shanghai!”

“???”

Kuro tilted his head. “What?”

“Don’t deny it, I know you, Kuro, you are as ambitious as the Young Master. In this world, only Pirate King is your ambition! Admit it, Luciru Kuro, you also want to be the Pirate King of Shanghai!”

Kuro was speechless.

‘Me?’

Pirate King?

Is that thing on my side?!

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

Kuro slashed out.

Bang!

This time, the small stone platform on the sea was shattered by Kuro.

Vergo jumped high in the sky and bounced with Geppō (Moonwalk). “Are you angry? But since I dare to say it, I don’t want to live. I just want to tell you…”

Thud!

The soles of his feet created a wave of air in the air and went straight for Kuro.

This time, he activated his entire body’s Haki, condensed it into a fist and punched over.

“Young Master is the man who will become the Pirate King!”

Chi!!

Autumn Water hit his chest and cut him in half. Vergo’s body was split in half and fell into the sea.

Kuro held the knife in one hand and swung it to the side, shaking the blood off the blade and putting it back into the scabbard. He stared at the sea for a moment before saying:

“What the hell!”

If you want to die, then die, but don’t insult others for no reason.

Me and that flamingo fighting for the Pirate King?

Are you looking down on me or your Young Master?

I’m going to be the Pirate King. How can there be Blackbeard? I’m already a Yonkō (Four Emperors).

Why does your family always think that I have a conspiracy?

Why don’t the others think so?!

Kuro blew out a mouthful of smoke and looked at the sea for a while. He shook his head and said, “The last punch was a little bit like that. Unfortunately, he became a useless spy.”

The purity of his last punch was still a little good.

Kuro originally thought that Virgo was just playing around with his full-armed Haki. It was okay to torture newbies, but it was full of flaws when he encountered veterans.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been cut into pieces by Law.

Except for the last punch, his full armor was completely useless and the purity was too low.

Virgo is not an ability user and does not have any special abilities. Even if he is an ability user, being split in half and falling into the sea is basically the same as not having a head.

Moreover, his corpse was floating on the sea and Kuro could see it.

Confirming that he was gone, Kuro turned around and flew back to G-5.

The current G-5 cannot be called chaotic, but there are small chaos.

Virgo and Kuro’s actions were seen by people. The Marines loyal to Virgo wanted to follow them, but they were tied up by Smoker.

Although his nature ‘smoke’ is not very lethal, he still has a way to catch people. The continuous white mist will make it difficult for people to break free.

Although these people can be domineering, there is no way to completely break free from Smoker’s restraint.

Not to mention that Smoker also had his own subordinates.

“You’re better? That’s fast.” Smoker saw someone flying in the sky and looked up.

Kuro was speechless.

Why does this sound so strange…
