The sea is calm.
After leaving the Tada Kingdom, Kuro finally felt at ease.
There was no call for help, no report, and it was rare to find peace.
Although it is a bit monotonous on the sea, Kuro is willing to do this. He just wants to cultivate now, and it is best not to encounter any enemies.
Moreover, he is in a good mood now.
Because the old man saw the report and called over before.
"Curo, I'm a little sorry for you. The higher-ups in the Tada Kingdom already know about it, and they have objections to it. I've lost the qualification to become a marshal. You could have been promoted to major general, but the higher-ups decided to put you I'll give you a promotion, and when the headquarters is free, you can come back and be awarded the honor."
Is there such a good thing?
Qrow even laughed when he heard it.
He stole a piece of land from the Tada Kingdom, and his level was actually downgraded.
So awesome.
Old man, you are awesome!
I knew that by becoming your subordinate, you would not let me down!
Kuro sat on the edge of the boat, smoking a cigar, holding a fishing rod in his hand, and fishing leisurely. Thinking of this from time to time, he would laugh out loud.
"Today is a good day..."
He hummed a song from his hometown.
Crowe, who was standing behind him, was speechless.
He carried the bucket with the bait, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Kuro, will General Kizaru withdraw from this marshal competition? Isn't that a pity? If he becomes the marshal, then Mr. Kuro's status will It will definitely be more stable.”
Kuro chuckled: "Come on, that old man becomes the marshal? I don't even have the eyes to see what he will transform the navy into after he comes to power. And he has no such idea at all. No wonder he takes full responsibility this time , turns out to be an excuse to face those five dead old men."
Based on Kuro's understanding of Kizaru, he had said he was responsible so readily just to shirk his qualifications this time.
He has no intention of becoming a marshal. Besides, the old man is very popular. No matter who becomes the marshal, he will not have any influence.
The master is not like the antagonistic relationship between Akainu and Aokiji. On the contrary, he has a bit of face with everyone.
When it comes to being the king of face, red hair is not even close, but the master is the worthy king of face.
"Mr. Kuro, even if General Kizaru is not the marshal, you should take back your own position. There is really a big difference from major general to colonel. I suggest that you should go to the prisoners on the sixth floor now to restore your position with the government. impression."
It is difficult to rise to the rank of a naval admiral. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to make a lot of merit if you succeed again.
"If you don't want your brain, throw it into the sea and feed it to the Neptunes."
Kuro bit his cigar and glanced at him angrily, "Are you influenced by Cass or something? You didn't act like this before. Why are you so reckless? Be safe, be safe! Catch him with my strength Sixth floor prisoner, am I qualified?"
"Mr. Crow, you...are not qualified?" Crow was a little stunned.
"Of course I'm not qualified! Although I killed the Golden Lion, left scars on Kaido's body that will never go away, seriously injured the red hair, and almost wiped out the Whitebeard Pirates, the Blackbeard Pirates were also defeated by me. Sinking into the sea."
"But I know that I am weak! When I treat them, I never guarantee my own safety 100%. Look at the injuries I suffered in those few days. The injuries I have suffered in my life are not as serious as those few days!"
Crowe was forced by these words to subconsciously take a few steps back, his head shrank back, and he subconsciously protected his eyes, looking at Crowe who said this seriously in shock.
Although his words were sincere, Crowe always felt that he was showing off something. He also had evidence, but because it was too strong and the way he said it made him feel like he was going blind, he didn't know how to refute it for a while.
"Wait, you met Kaido?!" Lida, who was staring at the bait and swallowing her saliva, reacted and said in surprise.
"Ah... I almost died. It can be seen from this that you must be humble and show due respect to the strong. Don't think you can defeat the sky and the earth just because you have some strength. Set a small goal for yourself first. First of all, I have to chop Kaido to death with one knife. If I can’t chop him to death, then I am weak and unsafe!”
Qrow raised his head, and there was absolutely no trace of humility in his expression when he said this.
"Clo, you have been with me for so long. You have to follow my example. Don't think that you are safe just because you have acquired an ability. It has only been a long time since you left the Tada Kingdom. Have you forgotten the dangers involved?"
"Let's talk about that Absolun, but everyone, including me, fell into his illusion. If he was stronger in physical skills, I would be unlucky! And as far as I know, among the prisoners who escaped, , there are a few who are much stronger than him."
"So, before you are strong enough, you must keep a low profile and don't become famous. You will be targeted by pirates who are obsessed with becoming famous. If a weird ability user comes, you will die without knowing it. How did you die?"
"But...Mr. Crow, you are already famous. Your performance in the war has been seen by the whole world." Crow said weakly.
"Don't mention this to me!"
The veins on Qrow's forehead were exposed, and thinking about this made his head hurt.
Nothing good will happen after entering the headquarters!
but...
"I still have a chance!"
Kuro showed a confident smile, "Whitebeard's death declaration has caused the sea to surge. Now pirates from all over the world are swarming. Not only the Grand Line, but the number of pirates in the four seas has also increased exponentially. This headquarters There is a serious shortage of troops."
"So I have the opportunity to travel all over the world, especially now. Let me tell you, the slower I rise, the farther away the danger is from me."
Before joining the war, his idea was to return to the East China Sea and live out his life safely and comfortably.
After participating in the war, he knew this idea was outdated.
Being famous and getting promoted is inevitable. Although Kuro doesn't want to, he has already reached this point, so there is nothing he can do about it.
Anyway, the war is over. What matters now is to contain it and keep your reputation and position at this level before your strength reaches your expectations.
Why don't I take the initiative to keep a low profile? Given the nature of the navy, if you don't take the initiative to demand progress, it won't be able to mobilize troops unless it is a major event like fighting a war.
Isn't that what Smoker was like in his early years in Rogge Town? His strength could have made him a lieutenant general. After all, he was from the natural system and lacked merit. The most important thing was that he listened to orders but did not listen to propaganda, so he was in Luoge. Ge Zhen stayed.
For Smoker, this is a downward allocation, but for Kuro, this is a good inspiration.
He can also listen to the tune but not the announcement, especially at this juncture.
Resignation during the Warring States Period and changes in power were the best opportunities.
Taking advantage of the pirate riot, he can apply to go to the Sihai branch, and then directly become the base commander as a colonel.
With the old man's character, he will not forcefully recruit himself. As for who will be the marshal, Akainu or Aokiji, it doesn't matter. Akainu has a radical temperament. If he doesn't take the initiative to make progress, he will not rush to beg you.
It would be even better if Qing Zhi, with his lazy temperament, he would forget about you if you stay there for a long time.
Then in a few years, with the current level of chaos, when those new people come to power, let alone the headquarters, the world will forget about itself.
At that time, he will be able to live happily in his own base, paddle around and practice, and live a comfortable and safe life.
Don't be too pretty.
As for the new world...
He didn't even want to stay in the Grand Line, let alone the New World.
He is a mortal body, but he is not indestructible. There are so many ability users in the Grand Line. If another buggy ability comes up, if he fails to catch it, he will still have to play it out.
Danger, so dangerous!
Not to mention the New World, he must have been registered in Kaido's place, and it's not much different in Red Hair's place.
Tiqi didn't care whether he was dead or alive. Just the two Yonko had already given him the highest level of warning.
He is not strong enough to defeat the Four Emperors. He will go to the New World in this state unless he goes crazy.
"So, patrol well, and when you get back, apply to go to Sihai. Don't think about it. My strength is enough to become a colonel. I'm not worthy of anything more."
Kuro swung the fishing rod, changed the direction and continued fishing in the sea.
