Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire Chapter 85

Chapter 85

Lion is Old, Madness is Gone
As soon as he finished speaking, Shiki suddenly raised his sword. Immediately, a shadow enveloped the island.
What is the biggest natural disaster in the world where most of the sea is destroyed?
The answer is a tsunami.
This is a floating island, and the surrounding area is also a floating sea, but if the entire sea suddenly erupts and a tsunami gathers inside, it will not be a small matter.
At least Kuro didn’t think it was a small matter.
The tsunami that seemed to cover the sky rose high, and the shadow covered the entire island. Compared to the height of the tsunami, Kuro felt as small as an ant.
There was no way to stop him.
“Gululu—”
Leda struggled in the rain, and Crowe broke the water, and then a claw blade broke Leda’s water.
Leda landed on the ground and coughed a few times. She looked at the tsunami that was like a high wall in horror. Then, she gritted her teeth and ran over to touch Kuro to restore his strength.
“No, there’s no need.”
At this time, Kuro slowly sheathed his sword and looked at Golden Lion in the sky with a complicated look.
Shiki said nothing and just stood in the sky.
A sword floating around him fell with a bang.
At the same time, the huge tsunami also fell.
“I lost… …”
Shiki stiffly showed a smile and said hoarsely to Kuro, “Kid, where are you from?”
“East Blue,” Kuro said slowly.
“Oh… I lost to the men of East Blue again. Interesting, one is a pirate and the other is a Marine…”
He raised his head and slowly raised his single arm, his five fingers stretched towards the sky. “So that’s how it is. My era has long passed…”
The swords in his hands fell off as he moved, and the two swords fell in front of Kuro at the same time.
“Take your spoils of war, cut off my head, inherit my name, and become famous in the sea, Luciru Kuro!!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Golden Lion smiled and stood still in the sky like a statue.
The lion swallows the dragon, showing its power.
The lion is old and his arrogance is gone.
“There is no breath.”
Leda exclaimed, “He’s dead, Kuro!”
“I know.”
Kuro glanced at the two swords and said, “I’m sorry, I’m not interested in the famous sea, and I don’t want your head. Since it has become a legend, it will quietly become a legend. However, I will accept the sword. After all, it is a famous sword.”
Unfortunately, Golden Lion could not hear this.
He closed his eyes and his body fell.
Rumble…
The earth was cracking, disintegrating, and sinking.
“Let’s go, Golden Lion is dead, his ability is naturally removed, this floating island is going to fall.”
Kuro picked up the two knives and used Geppō (Moonwalk) to step into the sky.
This is the range of the sea, there is nothing below, and falling down is nothing. Kuro does not have to worry about hitting anything.
Huh? Sea beasts?
The sea beasts were unlucky.
The few of them kicked into the sky and ran in the direction of Germoro Island.
The floating island completely fell into the sea and several islands collided with each other, forming a new island in the sea.
The Golden Lion’s body sank into the sea and could no longer be seen.
“Old man, thank you for your guidance.”
Kuro looked back at the place where he sank. “I will burn paper for you during the New Year.”
… .
Germoro Island. In five days, people have calmed down from the panic of almost being hit by the island.
Marine had not left when Kuro and others returned.
Of course, they couldn’t leave. They didn’t know where their commander went and they couldn’t leave.
But when Kuro and the others returned, most of the Marines were not there.
Kuro did not care and went straight to Mayor Mendel’s house.
“Oh! Kuro, you’re finally back!”
Mayor Mendel’s house had been repaired. When he saw Kuro coming back in a sorry state, he quickly went up to help him.
Kuro waved his hand. “Don’t touch me, help others and get me something. I’m starving.”
After fighting for five days, that meant that he had not eaten for five days. Kuro could not hold on any longer.
He walked into Mendel’s house and slumped in a seat, breathing heavily.
Leda leaned against Kuro’s leg without any image, looking weak.
Crowe, on the other hand, found a corner to lean against with his legs and stomach trembling. Not to mention participating in the battle, even if he was close to the place where Kuro and Golden Lion fought, his whole body would be weak. If not for the fear of falling into the sea, he would have collapsed on the island just now.
This level is too terrifying.
Mendel didn’t say much and quickly found some bread and apples and put them on the table.
Kuro picked up a piece of bread and finished it in two or three bites.
Like a hungry tiger pouncing on food, Leda jumped directly on the table, her hands were like afterimages as she ate crazily.
She maintained the posture of a young girl and Observation Haki the whole time. She did not dare to eat the food on the island, nor did she dare to finish the food in her bag. She only ate something when she was really hungry.
“What are you all doing? All of you are so hungry. Good men are so hungry. It really makes my heart ache.”
Mayor Mendel looked at Kuro and Crowe with heartache. As for Leda, he ignored her.
Mendel served food several times in a row before Kuro was full. He patted his stomach and leaned back in his chair. He looked at [Sakura Ten] and [Wooden Withered] that he brought back with a complicated gaze.
A powerhouse like Golden Lion could break his trump card, Huang Long.
If he was at his peak, he would definitely not be able to defeat that guy.
Golden Lion lost purely because he was old and his vitality was obviously disappearing after pulling out the rudder.
“Sure enough, this sea is still too dangerous. I am still too weak.” Kuro smacked his lips.
“Right, where are my subordinates?”
“Your subordinates are looking for you. They have been searching this island for five days. They should be back soon. I didn’t tell them the reason. A good man like you must have his own reasons for suddenly disappearing!”
Mendel gave a thumbs-up, revealing his teeth in a flash of light that stung Kuro’s eyes.
He turned his head and did not look at the face that was filled with the aura of [Yarranaka].
“It’s finally over.”
Kuro picked up the water on the table and drank it in one gulp. Then he took out his cigar, lit it for himself, and blew out the smoke.
“There’s nothing in East Blue that can threaten my safety anymore. There’s definitely nothing left!”
“Why are you looking at me?”
Leda swallowed the last bread on the table and looked away. “It’s definitely gone. This is East Blue.”
Yes, this is East Blue.
What the hell is going on in East Blue alone?!
Kuro only felt tired, very tired.
If a Golden Lion is already so difficult, then how strong is Whitebeard?
He would rather die than go!
He would not go no matter who shouted at him!
In any case, no one knew that he had killed Golden Lion.
If no one knew, he would not be promoted.
If he can’t get promoted, he can stay in East Blue forever.
