One Must Be Careful

“Why are you so excited?”

Kuro looked suspiciously at the agitated Wilbur.

“I’m just touched by your trust!”

When Wilbur said this, he could not help but cry.

“This poor child…”

Kuro shook his head. He must have been bullied badly in Marin Vando. Otherwise, why would he cry as soon as he came? It’s just a little power. It can be seen what kind of person he is in Marin Vando.

“Okay, okay, go down and do your work, don’t waste time.” Kuro waved his hand.

“Yes!”

Wilbur wiped his tears and said, “But… I brought Marshal Akainu’s news to you on the way here.”

“Oh? What news does he have?” Kuro perked up.

Not by phone, no telegram, but by a Marine relay?

Then this matter must be something that let him down!

Thinking about it in reverse, Akainu was so stubborn that he wanted to mention him, but this time it must not be as simple as not mentioning him. Maybe he would be demoted. Otherwise, why would he be so embarrassed to speak?

Even the old man didn’t send any message!

“Tell me quickly!” Kuro was a little excited.

“Uh…”

Wilbur lowered his head guiltily and whispered, “The Marshal said that he hopes that you will work hard in Sabaody. In addition, Sabaody has done a good job…”

“Yes, yes, what else?” Kuro’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

“That’s it.”

“That’s it?” Kuro stuck his head out and his eyes widened. “Where’s my demotion news? Where’s my transfer news?”

“There is no such thing, Major General Kuro…”

Wilbur opened his mouth and comforted him. “I know how Rear Admiral Kuro feels. He has clearly dealt with the chaos in Sabaody Archipelago, but he has not even been promoted. It is really depressing that Headquarters has not done anything. But I think Headquarters must have its difficulties. Rear Admiral Kuro, I am on your side. I will definitely support you!”

What demotion, what transfer…

Isn’t that ironic?

But come to think of it, after doing such a big thing in Sabaody Archipelago and almost being charged with the crime of ‘Murderous Demon King’ for justice, he still did not get promoted. The higher-ups are too hateful!

It has to be known that the reputation of Rear Admiral Kuro has already spread in the Marine Corps. He killed tens of thousands of people in three days. This level is comparable to the Demon Slayer Order!

This is his Demon Slayer Token alone!

One can imagine the pressure.

In the end, righteous actions were not rewarded…

It was normal to have resentment.

The Marshal must have known this and asked me to tell Rear Admiral Kuro.

“Why are you supporting me? I… F*ck!”

Kuro opened his mouth and looked at Wilbur, who did not know anything and still looked guilty. He suddenly felt a little tired.

“Okay, you can go out first…”

Kuro waved his hand helplessly and let Wilbur go out first.

The latter saluted and left silently.

“Hey, Kuro, last time you said you wanted to eat the table…”

Leda giggled.

“Go, go, go!”

Kuro snapped, “Am I eating a table? I’m just making an analogy. How can you take Marine’s words seriously?”

Saying that, he said a series of incomprehensible words such as ‘this is a metaphor’ and ‘rhetorical method’, and the office was instantly filled with happy air.

Then, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became!

Bang!!

He pounded his fist on the table, and from the surface of the table came what seemed to be a ‘-1’ sign, and a slight question.

“What the hell!”

Kuro roared, “Isn’t that scumbag Tenryubito! I even threw out his lackey. Doesn’t he feel ashamed? Come and mess with me! Is Tenryubito’s energy so low that he doesn’t even have the face to transfer a Rear Admiral?!”

Leda looked at him blankly.

Rear Admiral, Rear Admiral is also divided into ordinary and extraordinary.

You keep saying ‘Kizaru’ every day, ‘Ridefield Terminator’. Can an ordinary Rear Admiral achieve that?

“Then what if they are not transferred away? The Sabaody Archipelago has been cleaned up by you. If you kill another wave, it will affect the civilians.” Leda asked.

“I’m not that heartless!”

Kuro glared at Leda and sat down. He lit a cigar and held it in his mouth.

“Hiss… Lida, do you think I’m pressed here?”

He touched his chin and thought of a possibility. “Was the incident last time too big? I heard that the higher-ups are dissatisfied with me and they pressed me here?”

“How would I know?” Leda shook her head and said, “But there’s nothing wrong with pressing it here. Sabaody Archipelago is very fun.”

“Please be more careful, I beg you, can you be useful occasionally?” Kuro sighed.

“Hmph, I have always been useful!” Leda said.

“Okay, okay, go and find that idiot Crowe. Don’t let him play any more ‘military and civilian affairs’.”

“Oh.”

Leda responded and trotted out. Soon she came back again and brought Chloë back.

“Mr. Kuro, you wanted to see me?” Crowe said.

“Well… analyze it for me. The last time I was in North Blue, did Vinsmoke’s complaint indirectly cause me to press here and not move?” Kuro exhaled the smoke and said.

“Vinsmoke… It seems that there is. Their energy is not low and they can even affect the policies of the World Government.”

Crowe adjusted his glasses and said, “The replicators and combat power unique to that family are what the World Government needs to contact. Otherwise… Mr. Kuro, you should be a Vice-Admiral or even a Grand…”

“Don’t say such a terrible thing!”

Kuro quickly interrupted Crowe and continued, “So this time, does it mean that Tenryubito’s complaint is valid, but for some reason, I was pressed here.”

“It’s possible. After all, that’s Tenryubito, and the World Government’s resolution can’t be canceled in a short time. Otherwise, based on what we did in Sabaody Archipelago, you should be promoted…”

“I told you not to say such terrible things, bastard!!”

Kuro glared at Crowe. “Do you want a beating, Crowe!”

Crowe pursed his lips and said, “In short, Mr. Kuro, you may be held here by the World Government. Marshal Akainu and Admiral Kizaru may not be able to tell you in detail because of this reason. They are afraid that you will misunderstand, so they did not take the initiative to contact you. You have half of the command power of Marin Van Do, and it is very likely that Headquarters is compensating you.”

“I want an egg as compensation.”

Kuro rolled his eyes and leaned back, muttering, “If I’m really pressed here… it’s not unacceptable.”

As long as he doesn’t get promoted.

As long as you don’t get promoted, you can stay in Sabaody Archipelago for any length of time.

When the time comes, he can still fulfill his long-cherished wish.

“But in between, I need to do something…”

Kuro thought for a while and said, “According to these two operations, I’ve done it and I’ve offended them. If I do this, it may be a good thing. Once the World Government is annoyed with me, they won’t care about me. At that time, whether they are transferred away or pressed to death in Sabaody, it can be considered…”

His eyes lit up. “Yes, let’s do it!”

He straightened his body and said to Crowe, “Go, get me a plaque. It’s a plaque for ‘Safe Justice’. I’m a Major General after all. I still need a plaque. I have to pay attention to my character.”
