Chapter 979 – : Vice-Admiral And Vice-Admiral Are Different

After signing the contract, Rudolf chose a route and went back to pick up his clansmen.

Including the ships, they were all borrowed from Marine. They were not warships, but Kuro directly gave him one from the inventory.

Previously, in Banott Mirar, Kuro collected a batch of Pirate Ships and gave one to Rudolf.

After picking up his clansmen, Rudolf will survey the location on the route and choose one as his base to officially fulfill his Shichibukai position.

A few days after he left, the bounty order that had failed came out.

Rudolph is a Crucian Half-Merman. He is good at swimming and diving. His combat power in the water is a little stronger than on land, but not for long. After all, he is a Half-Merman.

But the title is easy to get.

Because of its good water characteristics, it was given the title of “Deeper”.

[Deep One] Joe Rudolph, bounty 350 million Berries.

But because this is Shichibukai, this bounty order has been invalid since it came out, but what Kuro wants is for this wanted poster to spread all over the world and let the world know about this person.

However, in the past few days, there was something that made Kuro pay attention.

That is ..

His subordinates were collectively promoted.

Kuro was not surprised about this. They had defeated the Blackbeard Pirates. Although they had the help of Shichibukai, Shichibukai was not a Marine. It was the price they had to pay when they enjoyed their privileges.

Kuro could not be promoted, but such a big credit must be given. If Kuro could not be promoted, then his subordinates would have to share the profits.

Leda and Crowe, as well as Kaz and Wilbur and Ian were all promoted to Vice-Admiral. Ian took Bintz, who had been promoted to Rear Admiral, back to the G-3 sea to patrol.

And the positions of others have explosive promotions.

Donald, Basil, and Stork became colonels.

Moore and Fanny did not become colonels because they did not have much credit on a daily basis, but they also became lieutenant colonels. This is already an extremely high leap of promotion.

After all, there are five more Vice-Admiral in Kuro’s faction. In terms of military rank, they are equal to Kuro and are no longer his subordinates.

Kuro was happy about this.

He finally got rid of these annoying subordinates, especially Kaz and Wilbur, who were no longer his subordinates. Then what they did had nothing to do with him, and he was no longer his superior and responsible for them.

“Mr. Kuro!”

Kaz and Wilbur broke into Kuro’s room, where he was eating alone in the dining room, and yelled at him.

“Vice Admiral Kaz, Vice Admiral Wilbur.”

Kuro floated up to Smiley Face and said to them gently, “You are already Vice-Admiral and are on the same level as me. You don’t have to report to me. You can make your own decisions on many things.”

Kaz and Wilbur looked at each other and said seriously, “Even so, you are still our superior in our hearts.”

“There’s no need for that. As Vice-Admiral, you have a lot of decision-making power. If you ask me about everything, you might as well not be a Vice-Admiral. Since Headquarters gave you a promotion, they naturally want you to be independent. There are some things that you don’t need to ask me.”

Kuro waved his hand. “You decide for yourselves. I can’t make the decision now.”

Kaz was about to say something else when Wilbur suddenly pulled him back. As their eyes met, Kaz suddenly understood something and nodded at Kuro. “Yes.. I understand.”

“Then go do your own thing.”

Kuro rolled the noodles with a fork and said as he ate.

“Yes, then we will take our leave.”

The two of them spoke and then retreated.

A smile appeared on Kuro’s lips and he didn’t say much.

They are on the same level as me, and they really can’t do anything about it, and Kuro doesn’t want to do anything about it.

He felt that this was very good. He had lost his annoying subordinates and he was free.

As a Marine, sooner or later it would come to this.

He couldn’t let his subordinates be unable to move because of his position.

Why would he do that?

But he can’t move up. If he moves again, he will be a general!

When the people below move, they become an example of an existence on the same level as their former superiors. There are too many of them in the Marine Corps. This is not surprising to Kuro, and it is not so unacceptable.

On the contrary, he thinks that although he doesn’t care about anything now, the faction is still the same.

Putting aside the fact that she has traces of Zephyr’s faction on her body, she is biased towards the Dove faction where Marine is now, but she also has the brand of his Fish faction and belongs to the three parties. After becoming a Vice-Admiral, although she is still performing her duty of cruising the G-3 sea, as long as Headquarters orders her, she will go elsewhere.

But the others are different. They have a strong Fish Pie brand on them.

Although I’m no longer their superior, if you say that they don’t give me face..

‘You let them try?’

“Kuro, Kuro!”

Cass and Wilbur hadn’t been out for long when the door was pushed open again. Leda barged in and sat next to him angrily.

“Who provoked you?” Kuro poured himself a glass of wine and said slowly.

“I don’t want to be Vice Admiral,” Leda muttered.

“Why? Vice-Admiral, you can manage a base and do whatever you want,” Kuro said.

“I don’t like it. I’m used to being next to you. Cass and Wilbur have been ordered to transfer. I don’t want to be transferred too.” Leda’s face fell.

“Then don’t do it. It’s not a big deal. I’ll go back and talk to the old man and temporarily suppress your transfer order. Oh, and Crowe’s, I can’t do it without him.” Kuro said lightly.

Crowe, who had just come in: “..”

‘What do you think, Chlo??’

Seeing Crowe come in, Kuro asked.

Crowe pushed up his glasses and hesitated. Finally, he said, “I have no objections.”

He wanted to walk.

He became a Vice-Admiral!

Those who are qualified to establish their own faction are already people with real status in the Marine!

Although Crowe knows very well that he belongs to Mr. Kuro’s faction, it doesn’t mean that he can’t belong to it. Just like how Mr. Kuro belongs to Kizaru’s faction, his own faction has them.

He wanted that too.

He could be stationed at his base and train his subordinates, just like Kaz and Wilbur. These two accepted the transfer order, and he wanted to accept it.

He came in to ask when his transfer order came down and then he heard this sentence as soon as he came in..

It was over.

It was over.

What transfer or no transfer ..

Even if he was a Vice-Admiral, Crowe could tell the difference in status.

Are Vice-Admiral and Vice-Admiral the same?

Is Mr. Kuro an ordinary lieutenant general? He is the successor of an entire faction of generals!

Even if Crowe established his own faction, it is currently a faction in the Kuro faction under the Admiral faction.

He was not arrogant enough to really think that he was on the same level as Mr. Kuro.

That was completely different.
