Chapter 253
Fighting Kuro
Headquarters, Marin Vando. At this moment, Marin Vando is in the midst of construction. Half of the tall Headquarters buildings are still being repaired.
Inside the Marshal’s office.
“Let him do whatever he wants, I don’t care!”
**TIP**
Sengoku angrily slammed the phone and shouted at the yellow-clothed old man who was sitting with his legs crossed and cutting his nails.
“Polusalino! This is your subordinate! None of them are easy to deal with. What report did you hear from him that he wants to build a naval base on Moe Island?! Who gave him the power? Did the World Government allow it? Do you know that there will be a very serious accident! That is the diplomacy of two kingdoms!”
“Oh~ The angry Sengoku Sang is so scary.” Kizaru opened his mouth and said in surprise.
“Come on, Borusalino!”
Sengoku slammed the table and said: “This old man is about to retire, you know, almost!”
Faced with Sengoku’s almost man-eating gaze, Kizaru shrugged and said, “Then I can’t help it. Although Kuro is my subordinate, he never reports to me. I am also in a difficult position.”
“If he doesn’t report, can’t you control him!” Sengoku roared.
At the side, Tsuru sat in a chair and supported his chin with his hands. After Sengoku finished roaring, he slowly said, “Now how to solve this matter. The position of Moe Island is indeed good as a base. It holds a lot of sea routes. It was a pity to give it to that Bonaparte Poropa. It is also a good thing that Kuro got rid of him.”
“What Granny Crane said makes sense. That Shorty has never been a good person,” Kizaru agreed.
“I know this.”
Sengoku sat back in his chair, his fingers pinched between his eyebrows, looking like he had a headache. “The main thing is how to explain to the World Government. Damn it, do I still have to mediate with those guys when I retire…”
“Mr. Sengoku, you are still a Marshal, shouldn’t you be more responsible?” Kizaru said lightly.
“Polusalino, you have no right to say that!”
Sengoku glared at him and then sighed heavily. “Well, I, who is close to retirement, will go to mediate again. Notify that kid Kuro. Since he wants to be a Marine Base, he should do it well. At this time, there can be no scandal.”
Crane nodded. “At this juncture, we indeed have to do it beautifully. The higher-ups are watching us.”
“I understand.”
Kizaru stood up. “As a general, I will personally go and greet Kuro. It will also seem more formal.”
“This bastard is so protective of his subordinates.”
Sengoku stared at Kizaru’s back and snorted.
Crane shook his head. “He likes Kuro a lot. That man is worth it.”
“If it weren’t for his hard work in the war, this responsibility would have been shouldered by him!”
Sengoku thought about it and said indignantly, “Even so, that kid should be able to perform better.”
Crane shook his head. “It’s a mess if everyone looks like Sakasugi. Besides, you didn’t recommend Sakasugi this time. You don’t agree with it in your heart, right?”
Sengoku was silent for a while and sighed: “Sakaski is too unyielding. If he is in charge of the Marine, it will only consume lives wantonly. We have already completed the strategic goal, next is to wait for the world pattern to change, and then slowly think of a way. Too radical, it is not good for now.”
“I’m afraid it’s not that simple…”
Crane thought for a moment and said, “That kid Kuzan has a criminal record. The World Government will not agree to a person who lets criminals go as a Marshal. Polusalino has just been disqualified. The only person they can recommend is probably Sakasugi.”
“Let them choose. I’m going to retire. It doesn’t matter who will be in this position. Marine or Marine.”
… .
Moe Island.
At the entrance of the temporary Marine base, Kuro sat on a big rock, holding the fax document that had just been sent. The cigar bit from the left mouth to the right mouth and then blew out smoke.
He patted the document and said with a smile, “There is someone in the court who can be an official. The old man wants to come and inspect the base in person, which means that this matter is settled. As for the wrangling, it has nothing to do with me.”
He handed the document to Leda, who was trying to look at it, and turned to the Captain standing in front of him and said, “We will be stationed here for a while. The people of Moe Island are still unstable. If we leave now, the people here will think that we have given up on them and it will be chaotic.”
“Lieutenant Colonel, there is nothing here… Our supplies may not be enough.”
The Captain looked at the Marine base behind him. It was an empty shell with nothing inside.
“If it’s not enough, buy it. Do you need me to teach you this?”
Kuro raised his eyebrows and said, “Koro, where are you? Where are you?”
“Louder, Kuro! I can’t hear you at all! Are you worthy of being a Marine?!”
Outside the crowd, Crowe’s shout sounded.
Kuro raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction of the voice.
The Marines spread out. Crowe pushed up his glasses and walked over with a refreshed look on his face. Behind him was Basil, lying on the ground with a bruised face.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
“Mr. Kuro, I am training Kuro, Basil Kuro.”
Crowe said, “He is not a Marine yet, so he needs to go through my strict training to qualify as a full Marine. So when I have nothing to do, I will fight, not to train him, but to fight Kuro.”
I know what you mean, but I feel like you’re targeting me?
Was it an illusion?
“What the hell are you doing? If you have nothing to do, go and command. I’ll leave everything to you. Before nightfall, I want to spend the night here.” Kuro glared at him.
“I understand. I’ll do it now.”
Crowe doesn’t feel like a tool at all.
Anyway, he was used to it.
Moreover, he had just vented and was in a good mood.
“Kuro, are you going to stay here?” Leda asked after reading the file.
“I’m stupid, I’m stationed here.”
Kuro rolled his eyes and pointed to the sea in front of him. “What is this place? A small Sabaody Archipelago. All kinds of pirates will pass through here. If this place is to be turned into a Marine base, it will definitely be haunted by all kinds of pirates. I am stationed here to find credit for myself.”
“Isn’t the old man coming over? As long as the residents are settled in during this period of time, I will leave as soon as the old man comes. I will throw this place to him and find a Marine to change the defense. Isn’t that enough?”
His mission is to cruise, not station. It will definitely take some time for Sengoku to wrangle with the World Government. During this time, his mission will be completed.
If there weren’t many pirates here, he would be happy to be stationed here for the rest of his life, but it would be abnormal to expect an island leading to more than ten waterways to have no pirates.
