Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire Chapter 864

Chapter 864

Shichibukai, Jail, Choose One.
Crocodile was angry, very angry.
She had invited him up as a guest.
But …
In a certain house with a living room, Crocodile poured himself a glass of wine.
There was everything here. Cigars, food, wine. It was a good place to live, but there was only one thing.
He picked up the glass, then his eyes slid down and he saw the handcuffs on his wrist. His face darkened and he put the glass down heavily.
Bang!
The table made a sound, as if it was asking questions.
On the other side, Darz Bonis glanced at the Seastone handcuffs on his hand and asked, “Boss, what should we do?”
Crocodile’s face sank. “I was careless and forgot that there are other Marines.”
Seastone’s handcuffs make them unable to use their abilities and make them powerless, but this powerlessness is still bearable for them.
Suddenly, the door was opened and a person wrapped in bandages like a mummy floated in.
Behind him, Crowe walked in with Leda.
Kuro pursed his lips and Crowe nodded and said, “Yo, are you drinking?”
“Kuro!”
Crocodile glanced at him and was a little happy to see him like this. He sneered and said, “What are you like now, a bandage man?”
Kuro said nothing and signaled with his eyes again.
“If it were you, it would have been gone long ago,” Crowe whispered.
Kuro stretched out his good right hand and snapped his fingers.
“Give me a cup,” Crowe said.
“Is your mouth also injured?!”
Crocodile glared at Kuro, but he still poured him a glass of wine.
Kuro nodded and took a sip from his glass.
Crowe said, “I’m too lazy to talk.”
Crocodile’s mouth twitched and the veins on his arm were showing. He wanted Seastone’s handcuffs to hit him.
“Stop it.”
This time, Kuro spoke. “Something bad will happen if this thing touches me. At that time, don’t say that you don’t bring Seastone, even if you transform into a sandstorm, it will be useless.”
“What do you want?” Crocodile’s face was gloomy.
Kuro snapped his fingers with his right hand. Crowe nodded and took the key out of his pocket.
Key to Seastone Handcuffs.
“It’s our fault for doing this, but we’ve already cuffed him. We can decide the situation after we finish questioning him,” Kuro said.
“What situation?” Crocodile asked.
“Well… that’s the situation. As for what the situation is, it depends on the situation.”
What about you?!
A blue vein appeared on Crocodile’s forehead and his arm froze.
Kuro smiled and said, “You choose between Shichibukai and prison.”
Shichibukai?
Crocodile was stunned for a moment and then laughed, “Ha, ha, ha, ha! I was removed from Shichibukai. Kuro, you actually want to invite me to be Shichibukai. Does the World Government agree? What about your Marine?”
“I can’t control this.”
Kuro said, “I’m just a messenger, but I personally welcome you to join Shichibukai. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have stopped you. But as for the specifics, it’s not my business. Whether you join or not is your business. As for whether the higher-ups pass or not, that’s another matter.”
The power is with Sakasugi now, and maybe it will go to the old man in the future, but although the old man is very easy-going, he has his own set of principles. Anyway, it will not be in his hands, so why should he worry about it?
He just happened to see Crocodile and wanted to give Shichibukai Ra a reliable person.
This guy is very reliable in terms of combat power, and from Kuro’s senses, he is much better than before, at least less ambitious.
Although his Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki is not as sensitive to specific emotions as Brother Yixiao, it is still possible for him to sense a little. The current Crocodile has lost a little of his spirit and recognized reality, but he does not admit it.
Whitebeard’s death seemed to be a big blow to him.
“Shichibukai…”
Crocodile narrowed his eyes. “Aren’t you afraid that I will subvert a country again?”
“Ha!”
Kuro laughed. “You spent more than ten years without success in subversion. You can’t even do it. And your reputation is ruined. No one believes you.”
“You!” Crocodile said angrily.
However, he was right. His reputation has long been tarnished in various countries.
But it was also because of this that Kuro had thoughts about Crocodile.
He has another identity compared to Doflamingo. If Doflamingo is released, it is really possible to find another country to be king, if he is willing, but it is more likely that he will go directly to Kaido.
Crocodile was different. He wandered in the sea for so long and did not cooperate with anyone.
Moreover, his reputation in the kingdom has long been ruined. No one will believe him. Not to mention subverting the country, even if he has to stay in a country, it will make the king vigilant.
Moreover, he had overthrown the country for too long. Even if Alabasta is a big country far beyond Dressrosa, the preparation time is too long.
The main thing is that there is no legitimacy. He doesn’t even have a weak declaration, let alone a strong declaration.
In this world full of pedigree and nobility, no one claims to want to go on stage.
Otherwise, why didn’t the Revolutionary Army become the king themselves? After subverting the country, they found another person with noble blood to be the king.
Not declared, not recognized…
Moreover, he had failed before. If he really had the idea of exploring the sea again, he should have gathered the forces and set up a flag in the past few years, but he did not. This was also why Kuro liked him.
However, this matter was none of Kuro’s business. If Crocodile was willing, it was only a preliminary intention.
Crocodile stared at Kuro for a while and narrowed his eyes. “Yes, I agree. Daz, give him my Life Paper.”
Darz Bonis nodded and took out a piece of Life Paper from his pocket, tore it a little and put it on the table.
The Life Paper moved towards Crocodile bit by bit.
It was his without a doubt.
“Chloe,” Kuro said.
Crowe nodded, put the key on the table, and took the Life Paper.
“My character is guaranteed. When the time comes, I will give the Life Paper to the person in charge. He will come to you, of course, if this is successful.”
Kuro picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in it in one gulp. Then, he said in disdain, “Tsk, it tastes so bad. Whose is it?”
“Your own!” Crocodile’s blue tendons were exposed. “Is this my ship?!”
“Bullshit, how can I have such bad wine!” Kuro rolled his eyes and completely denied it.
“Get out of the next island by yourself, otherwise I can only ask you to go to Impel Down for the time being. Of course… this is to thank you. We Marines remember favors. Since you have protected us Marines, we will spare you this time. Don’t misunderstand.”
Kuro stood up and floated again, leaving with Leda and Crowe.
