Headquarters Will Compensate

“Why do you have to become a general? A general can’t be promoted, isn’t that what old man Garp did?”

Looking at Kuro sitting like a salted fish, Leda wondered.

“Do you think I have Karp’s achievements?!”

Kuro roared, “Of course I have thought about this. If I can have the merit of Garp killing Locus, I can also not be promoted!”

Garp didn’t get promoted because of his kindness to the World Government.

This old man has strength and achievements, so of course he can be willful. Even so, in the Marine, there is a limit to his willfulness.

Of course, Kuro thought that he could refuse the promotion, but he thought about it and found that he was not Garp. Without that achievement, he could not refuse the Headquarters’ order.

Unless he killed all Yonkō (Four Emperors).

But this is even more difficult than becoming a general.

“Okay, don’t bother me, I want to be alone.” Kuro waved his hand and collapsed there again.

“Who is Jing Jing?” Leda was alert.

Kuro was speechless.

“Mr. Kuro.”

Suddenly, the door was pushed open and Crowe walked in quickly. “Headquarters has come to give the order.”

“No!”

Kuro immediately shook his head and said firmly, “Just say that I was seriously injured when I fought with Ledfield. It will take me at least eight or ten years to recover.”

“This Headquarters order..” Crowe said with some difficulty.

“It’s us!”

Two heads poked out from the door.

Garp’s head was at the bottom, grinning like a club and eating a piece of shellfish.

Sengoku’s head was on top of it. His hair and beard were all white and he was smiling very happily at this time. He even made two ‘Scissorhands’ with his eyes.

Plop!

Kuro fell out of his chair.

“Mr. Sengoku, Mr. Karp?!”

He got up, widened his eyes and gritted his teeth. “What are you two doing here!”

“Didn’t I say that I will come here for a vacation?”

Sengoku walked in and pointed at Kuro and laughed. “Where did you get injured? Aren’t you fine?”

“Puhaha, I’m here too. Let’s play again.” Garp walked in and laughed.

“On the way, I brought the Headquarters’ order.”

“That is Kuro, you..” Garp said.

After the two of them finished speaking, they said in unison, “Now you have been promoted to Major General.”

“I don’t.. Huh?”

Kuro subconsciously answered, but before he could answer, he was suddenly stunned.

“Rear Admiral?” He looked at the two.

“Don’t be angry, Kuro.”

Sengoku sat on the sofa and said seriously: “This is the consideration of the World Government. Sakasugi fought for you, but it did not succeed.”

“This is a good thing.. Ah, no, it didn’t succeed, right? I don’t care. After all, the promotion has to consider the course of history. I can also be a Rear Admiral.” Kuro calmed down at this time.

Compared to his expectations of being a general directly, being a Rear Admiral was already a blessing.

Compared to the worst ending, a slightly worse ending is not so unbearable.

Wait ..

Did I get hit by the ‘Sky-Breaking Window Effect’?

“It’s good that you can understand.” Sengoku nodded and sighed: “Headquarters has let you down in this matter.”

“No, no, no, I think it’s good, it’s good.” Kuro hurriedly waved his hand. “It’s already very good.”

Sengoku shook his head slightly and smiled at him. “So, you are a good Marine, Kuro.”

“Pfft, there’s nothing good about being a general, it’s not free.” Garp laughed.

“Shut up Garp, only you would think that way.” Sengoku glared at him and continued to say to Kuro:

“In addition to Rear Admiral, your station has also been transferred. The World Government thinks that you are not suitable to stay in West Blue. Sakasugi is going to move its headquarters. G-1 and Marin Van Do have been switched, so..”

“Wait, Mr. Sengoku, even if I am promoted, I am only a Rear Admiral.”

Kuro immediately said, “I’m going to guard Marin Vando? That’s not good.”

Marin Vando and G-1, that place is no longer an extremely dangerous area for the pirates in the first half of the Grand Line. There will always be lunatics who want to test the quality of Marine.

If he were to go to Marien Vando, he would have to face a lot of things.

“Of course it’s not Marin Vando. Although you are strong enough, your status is not enough, hahaha.” Garp laughed.

Not Marin Vando will do..

However, before he could completely relax, Sengoku added, “It’s Sabaody Archipelago.”

“That place, because there is no time to care about it in this year, the riot has already begun. The general people can not govern there, so we need a strong Marine. The World Government also thinks so, so they transferred you to Sabaody.” historical

“Shiba Land? Grand Line?”

Kuro widened his eyes and asked knowingly, “Isn’t it just a promotion?”

“What are you thinking? The Four Seas Division has never had a Rear Admiral stationed here.” Sengoku said.

Of course, Kuro knew this, but he was just unwilling.

“No, Mr. Sengoku, I have spent a lot of energy here. If I leave rashly, what if Pegasus Island is not as peaceful as before?” Kuro asked.

“Puhaha, there are so many heavy cannons on the shore, ordinary people don’t dare to approach.” Garp laughed again.

In order to maintain stability, Kuro had gotten a lot of cannons in the port. That kind of firepower coverage had already destroyed the pirate ship that came to launch a sneak attack a year ago. There was basically no need for him to do anything.

“Pegasus Island’s reputation has been made, and it is stable. You will only be decadent here. Let your subordinates camp here, they are qualified.”

Sengoku said, “After all, the order has been given. What you have to do is to carry it out.”

Kuro’s lips twitched.

Why don’t you try playing Den Den Mushi with this sentence and see if I will pay attention to you?

You two came over this time because you knew that I wouldn’t answer the call..

“Can I not go?” Kuro asked.

“No,” Sengoku said.

Kuro waved his hand. “Okay, I’ll be alone for a while. If you want to play, then go play.”

“Puhaha, Sengoku, let’s go to the hot spring!” Garp excitedly said to Zhankou, “Then go and steam, I can steam for an hour!”

“Then this old man will take two hours!” Sengoku said, unconvinced.

“Three hours!” Garp frowned and held up three fingers.

“Four hours!”

The two old men walked out noisily.

“What the hell!”

Waiting for the two of them to go out, Kuro took out his cigar and lit it, his gaze drifting away. “Shiba Land..”

.. .

“As expected, Kuro still has resentment.”

After leaving the base building, Sengoku’s playful expression disappeared.

“Pfft, hahaha, anyone can do this kind of thing. The old men of the government only consider the outside world and not the inside.” Garp laughed.

“Zefa also..”

Sengoku sighed and looked at the sky. “I thought that after that incident, the government would be a little more restrained. Forget it.. Headquarters will compensate Kuro in other ways. If he can’t be a general, Headquarters can decide for him.”

“That’s fine, that kid’s strength is enough.” Garp nodded in agreement.
