Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire Novel - Chapter 493
Chapter 493: Heartache
Before the Grand Fleet arrived at the port, a golden light flashed from the Battleship and turned into a ray of light, instantly arriving in front of Kuro.
The beam took shape and became a tall man.
The man put his hands in his pockets and wore a yellow formal suit and a cloak. He said to Kuro with a wretched face, “Oh, Kuro, are you okay?”
“Ki-Kizaru?!”
Dick opened his eyes wide when he saw who it was.
That’s right, that man is Kizaru, the most powerful Marine!!
Why is he here?!
Luciru Kuro is worth a general coming in person?!
“Oh, Old Master, I’m in big trouble.”
Kuro rolled his eyes. “I haven’t recovered yet.”
“He seems to have suffered a lot of injuries.”
Kizaru looked at Kuro, nodded, and smiled gently. “It’s okay, I’m here to pick you up.”
As he spoke, he looked at the confused citizens and said, “Oh, this is… a big battle. It doesn’t match the rumors of the Krane Kingdom. It’s so scary.”
“Ah… Times are always changing.”
Kuro glanced back and said meaningfully.
Soon, the Battleship docked and Kuro did not say anything and directly boarded the ship.
This country has changed visibly. There is no point in staying here. The palace is full of treasures, enough for these people to find a way to buy everything they want.
Whether it is to rebuild this kingdom or to buy a large number of weapons.
With Haoshoku around, the follow-up is no longer a problem.
After receiving Kuro, the mission of the Battleship was completed. With the return of Stolobelli, Grand Fleet sailed away from Krane Island.
“All of you pay attention. This is the Spiral Sea. Pay attention to the route and don’t get sucked into the whirlpool.”
On the Battleship, Strawberry took the Den Den Mushi and gave orders to the other Battleships. Then he looked at Kuro who was surrounded by people on the deck.
“Kuro Kuro, are you okay?” Leda, who was closest to Kuro, bounced and asked.
“If there’s nothing, why did I call you here? Hurry up and absorb my stamina to treat me. It hurts.”
Kuro rolled his eyes and laid down on a recliner moved over by a Marine. He instructed, “Chloe, bring me a cigar. This last-minute cigar is really difficult to smoke. Also, Leda, go to the kitchen and ask her to make something for me.”
Kuro didn’t even talk to her now. If she had something to say, let Leda do it for her.
“Yes, I understand.”
Crowe adjusted his glasses and turned to the ship’s office.
As Kuro’s adjutant and butler, he usually brought the things that Kuro wanted, and the cigars were naturally included.
And after Leda finished talking to Pallas, Pallas nodded and went to the kitchen.
After Leda finished speaking, she held Kuro down with one hand. “Essence energy collection!”
Immediately, Kuro felt that his essence, energy, and spirit were losing.
“Stop, stop, stop. I only let you absorb my stamina. I don’t need anything else. I know you have become much stronger recently,” said Kuro.
This suction is no longer limited to physical strength. It has to be known that boldness and spirit are very important to a person.
“Oh.” Leda responded and changed her method, only absorbing stamina.
Her fruit is also gradually developing.
Now, once a person is touched by her, it is not as simple as absorbing physical strength.
This ability showed some clues back then.
It has been a year. In terms of absorption power, once Leda is touched by her, she can’t even use Haki.
“Vital energy feedback!”
After absorbing her stamina, Leda’s arm shook and Kuro’s stamina changed into healing ability.
Suddenly, Kuro’s body shook, he held his palm and laid down on the recliner, “Ah… it’s comfortable.”
Although he had consumed some physical strength, his injuries from the battle with Charlotte Lingling had been healed.
The bruises on the surface of his body were gone, and his broken ribs had recovered. The internal injuries he had suffered previously were almost healed.
The ability of the fruit is sometimes a miracle.
“Are you ready, Kuro?” Kizaru asked.
“Almost there.”
Kuro nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s finally over. I won’t get drunk next time.”
“Mr. Kuro! What are you saying!”
Kaz said seriously at the side, “You are too powerful! Facing Yonkō (Four Emperors) alone, this is the courage we need to learn! You once said that the hymn of human beings is the hymn of courage. In you, this sentence is perfect!”
“Yes! Such boldness makes me fascinated!” Donald echoed.
Kuro rolled his eyes and ignored the two idiots.
He would be a fool if he got any more drunk.
After a battle, he did not earn anything and was even injured. How uncomfortable.
“Speaking of which, Kuro, what did you do to the Kingdom of Krane?”
Kizaru touched his chin and said with a smile, “When I saw them just now, their willpower was very terrifying.”
“I didn’t do anything. This is something some stupid king traded his life for.”
Crowe happened to come back at this time and handed the cigar to Kuro. He took it and lit it up. He blew out the smoke and smacked his lips. “This tastes better.”
He didn’t want to talk about this either.
There was nothing to talk about with that idiot.
He was already kind enough to erect a statue for him.
At least… there are still people who can remember it. Although he is not very clear about the truth, his intuition should be right.
“Speaking of which, if you all come, what will happen to the island?”
Kuro frowned and said, “Does Sabaody Archipelago not need anyone to guard it?”
Pegasus Island was easy. Kaz just came along. There weren’t many Dougary Marines, and most of them were on Pegasus Island.
With the number of people on Pegasus Island, ordinary pirates can’t enter.
Especially since he had just criticized Charlotte Lingling and the old man even went around after that.
On the other hand, his subordinates are all here, and the Sabaody Archipelago is almost empty.
“It has been arranged.”
Crowe said, “Before we left, Sabaody has been under martial law. Now Colonel Wilbur is there to maintain order.”
When he said this, there was a trace of coldness in his tone.
This martial law is much more violent than the previous one.
But at that time, Crowe didn’t dare to care about anything else. If he didn’t do things well, he would be the one getting stabbed.
“And me, and me.”
Basil came over and said, “The underground order of Sabaody Archipelago has been cleaned up.”
Kuro rolled his eyes.
If you can’t do this little thing well, you can go back to the furnace and rebuild it.
“Okay, okay, let’s go. What am I doing here? Go do what you need to do.”
Kuro waved his hand. “Let me clean up for a while. I feel uncomfortable now.”
He had not recovered.
Although he picked up his Lion Head on the way, he also smashed half of his stock.
My heart aches!
