Chapter 602
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
Stop, Teacher Zephyr
The person soaking in the hot spring behind Kuro was the original Admiral who had quit the Marine, Aokiji Kuzan.
âDonât say that, everyone has their own way of doing things.â Kuzan laughed.
Kuro rolled his eyes. âCome on, I donât understand you. There is intelligence on you in the Battle of Ending. What do you want to do and what identity are you acting in, Kusan.â
âIdentity?â
Kuzan chuckled and said, âJustice partners? It doesnât seem like it. After all, they have cooperated with pirates, but⦠I have my reasons. After leaving the World Government, maybe I can see justice from another perspective.â
âAs expected of old man Zephyrâs proudest disciple. He is stubborn, but you are also stupid,â Kuro said.
âSpare me, Kuro. I didnât ask you here to listen to you preach to me.â
Kuzan also dug out his other hand and leaned his head on his hands. âI asked you to come because only you can stop Teacher Zephyr.â
âYes?â
Kuro frowned. âShouldnât you be looking for the straw hat?â
âA straw hat?â
Kuzan was stunned for a moment and said, âYou mean Straw Hat? Ah, strange, why am I looking for him?â
These words stunned Kuro for a moment.
Yes, what did he want with that straw hat?
This matter does not seem to have anything to do with him.
This is a Marine internal matter.
What kind of relationship does it have with a pirate?
It was normal for Kuzan to look for Marines.
âYou can do it yourself. Although that old man Zephyr is very strong, with your ability, there shouldnât be any problem,â Kuro said.
Kuzanâs ability, or the explosive rock, is useless against his ability.
âI donât have that reason. Iâm just a lost person now. In comparison, you are Marine,â Kuzan said.
Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke and comfortably changed his posture to soak in the hot spring. He said, âDonât worry, there are two islands. The old man and I will guard one side. Nothing will happen. I am not the kind of person who puts the battlefield in one place.â
âSpeaking of which, Headquarters asked me to ask you what you have been doing recently. If there are any problems, I will report it.â
âAh La, can you tell me this clearly? Donât you want to test me?â Kuzan scratched his head.
âCome on, it doesnât seem necessary for the two of us. To be honest, I donât care what you want to do or what your purpose is.â
Kuro smacked his lips and said, âBut if thereâs anything you can say, you should say it so that I can report back to you. Everyone is mutually beneficial. Donât make things difficult for me. Why are you going to Blackbeardâs side?â
âHey, are you going straight to the point? I canât tell you about this for the time being.â
Kuzan stood up and exhaled. âIâve been waiting for you until youâre dizzy. Letâs go out and talk.â
âSit down, I havenât soaked enough.â
Kuro reached out and shook his hand slightly. The hot spring water in the pool suddenly rose and drowned Kusan.
The pool surged and Kuzan appeared again. He wiped his face and said in surprise, âHey, with your current ability, can you do this? Itâs too scary.â
âDonât joke around, Kuzan. Itâs just a medium of air. Canât you do this yourself?â Kuro curled his lips and said.
After a moment of silence, Kuzan smiled bitterly and said, âThat uncle, in short, if you can, donât kill him.â
âThat depends on what he does. After all, I can roughly guess the real purpose of that old man. If he canât change his mind in time, then I can only grant him his wish.â
Kuro sighed and said, âKuzen, if you encounter that old man in advance and advise him, we can ignore the Explosive Rock. He can take it to fight pirates or blow up pirate islands. In short, donât cause trouble in EndPoint.â
âI will deliver the message, provided I meet that uncle.â
Kurzam looked at Kuro as he spoke. âYou have encountered him before. He is still so strong, right, Kuro?â
Kuro closed his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. âOld stubborn, but his combat power hasnât changed much. Heâs just as strange as you.â
âLike me?â
Kuzan was stunned and then smiled bitterly. âIs it the same⦠confusion?â
The atmosphere fell into silence.
Crash.
After a while, Kuro stood up from the pool and walked down with his back to Kuzan.
âRemember to pass some information to me so that I can report. As for you, I will pretend that I have never seen you before. If you are not a Marine, you should appear less in front of us. It is very troublesomeâ¦â
âAh La, no matter what, Iâm your former colleague, so heartless.â
Kurzam shrugged and let Kuro leave alone. His head was on his arms and his eyes were inexplicable. No one knew what he was thinking.
After Kuro left the hot spring facility, he turned on Den Den Mushi and made a call.
âIs it Kuro?â
It was Strawberry who answered the phone.
Of course, he would not call the old man. Who knew that the old man often picked up the wrong number.
âBrother, tell the old man to come directly to Kazanosen. That stubborn old man will definitely come here,â said Kuro.
âI see. Is there anything else, Kuro?â
Kuro was silent for a moment and said, âThereâs no need to bring anyone. Tell the old man that as long as itâs the disciple of that smelly old man, all of you come over⦠If nothing unexpected happens, we will send him off.â
Kuzanâs words have transmitted a lot of information. This old manâs next destination must be here.
Then there is no need to guard it in batches.
All the disciples sent him a row and gave him the face of a general and a Marine Instructor.
After all, this old man did such a big thing because he wanted to die.
It was not bad to see his cute disciples before he died.
He, Kuro, said.
⦠.
Evening, at the sea.
The black fleet sailed on.
In the cabin, the NEO Marines were all curled up, looking tired.
On the deck, Zephyra sat by the mast. His eyes were hidden by his sunglasses.
Ian, who was in front of him, looked at the old man with pity.
âThe end of the world.â
âIf I really disappear.â
âThe sea that knows everything will guide the wayâ¦â
A faint low moan seemed to echo in this world.
The fleet approached and landed on a shoal that no one had discovered.
Zephyra glanced at the high cliff in front of her and smiled as she walked up.
At the highest point of the cliff, a man in a coat and hat was singing this song with his back to him.
âI actually donât like this song. Itâs too boring to sing about the sacrifice of Marines.â
Kuzan turned around and threw a bottle of wine in his hand. âLong time no see, Teacher Zephyr.â
Snap.
Zephyra took it with one hand and glanced at it. It was his beloved sherry.
âI often drink like you. Itâs very cool.â
Kuzan paused for a moment and said, âTeacher Zephyr⦠stop.â
