Chapter 980 – Fighting For Greater Face!
Leda was going to stay, which Kuro didn’t care about. In fact, Kuro was worried about letting her out, afraid that she would eat up the base. And that bastard Tiki seed to be thinking about Leda’s ability. It was best to keep her with him.
As for Crowe, it was purely convenient.
He wanted to keep so people by his side so that the higher-ups would give him so face.
As for what Crowe thinks…
Isn’t he quite happy?
Crowe had a smile on his face and was sitting there stiffly. Although he was smiling, his eyes were numb.
He really wanted to be an awe-inspiring lieutenant general alone. He wanted to find a base like Mr. Kuro and bully others for no reason. He wanted to live a luxurious life and not forget his Marine duties.
How impressive would that be…
‘Why?’
Why was he still left behind and ordered around as a tool when he was already a Vice-Admiral?
“Cass and Wilbur have received the transfer order. Aren’t we going to stop them?” Crowe asked with so unwillingness and even a little malice.
He couldn’t leave. Why should Kaz and Wilbur?
“They… they are all lieutenant generals and need to take charge.”
Kuro took a sip of wine. “What’s the point of always being by my side? I’ve never heard of a Vice-Admiral following another Vice-Admiral. This is against the rules.”
“Mr. Kuro, then I…”
“As for you guys, um… I don’t have any rules in the first place. Anyway, I’m already used to it. Crowe, go and prepare the ship. It’s not easy for us to rest. Since there are no transfer orders, let’s go back and take a walk.”
“Yes… Mr. Kuro.” Crowe pushed up his glasses and said helplessly.
People are different. Just those two hot-blooded people alone are noisy to death.
Once he beca a Lieutenant General, he would naturally be released and he would not be hard.
Wilbur used to be quite good. He had probably been with Kaz for a long ti. Now he spoke with Kaz’s sll, which made Kuro extrely uncomfortable and even scared.
It’s better to walk away.
Kuro took a sip of wine and sighed. “Life is comfortable…”
Ever since he found out that his subordinates had been promoted, he had been here for a few days and began to enjoy such peace in advance.
I, Kuro, am less than 30 years old and am about to complete my dream!
… .
Outside, Kaz and Wilbur walked out side by side.
“Why did you stop just now?” Kaz frowned. “That kind of thing should be reported to Mr. Kuro, right?”
“Haven’t you noticed that since we were promoted, Mr. Kuro has been staying in the tavern and eating alone. The aning behind this is very obvious,” Wilbur said with so heartache.
“You an…” Kaz’s eyes widened. “There’s no room, right?”
Wilbur nodded solemnly. “Yes, there are no more seats. You have to know that this promotion is an unprecedented promotion. Other than us, others have also been promoted. The lowest is a Lieutenant Colonel, and this should be the credit of Mr. Kuro, who can beco a general!”
Wilbur himself was a Marine on the Grand Line. Unlike Kaz, who was promoted from a small place in the East China Sea, he understood Marine’s architecture better than Kaz.
For a group promotion like this, it must be that the main officer can no longer be promoted.
However, there is only one situation where there is no room for promotion.
Mr. Kuro cannot be promoted to Admiral.
The positions of the three generals were decided a long ti ago.
No one can force the World Governnt to make changes. Otherwise, there would have been more than three Great Generals now.
Moreover, even if there are more than three generals, they can’t be promoted now.
The World Governnt will not tolerate two Marines of the sa faction to be Admiral. In that case, the power is too great.
“Mr. Kuro can’t be a general now, this is our negligence!”
Wilbur held his chest and said sadly, “As a subordinate, it is a great dereliction of duty to be unable to solve the problems of your superior! Mr. Kuro is so lonely that he is drinking alone. When we ca, what did he say? He said that we are already on the sa level…”
“The sa rank… You should know the aning behind this, Cass!”
“Yes, I know very well…” Kaz murmured absent-mindedly. “That is the loneliness and helplessness of knowing that he can’t be promoted. That’s why, that’s why Mr. Kuro said that we are equal. He can’t make a decision for us.”
Wilbur gritted his teeth and said, “That’s right! We haven’t worked hard enough and have just beco Vice-Admiral. If we want to make the higher-ups take us seriously or even want to change the Admiral, we have to make achievents to make them notice us. Now we are not qualified.”
“Mr. Kuro wants us to make our own decisions and he also has such thoughts. He wants us to work hard and make our own decisions. Since we are Vice-Admiral, we are certainly qualified to be independent. Then, there are many things that we don’t need Mr. Kuro to command. Otherwise, if everything makes Mr. Kuro think, how can we fulfill Mr. Kuro’s ideals?”
Kaz listened and nodded thoughtfully. “You have a point. It should be like this. It’s ti for Mr. Kuro to check if our abilities can take charge.”
“Yes, that’s it. Mr. Kuro never says everything. After all, there’s no way to make that kind of thing clear. It’s too risky. We just have to see what he does. That’s enough.”
Wilbur said, “So, Cass, you are about to go to Dressrosa, and I am about to go to Corfu. If the two of us help each other, we can cooperate with David to complete his ideas. At the sa ti, we can train our ability, strength, and fa there. When the ti cos, we will have the energy to help Mr. Kuro beco a general!”
As he spoke, he clenched his fists and almost roared with excitent, “As subordinates, it is most important for us to share the burden of our superiors, and it is also the most necessary to complete it!”
“Wilbur, what you said is brilliant!!”
Kaz couldn’t help but clap and his face turned red. “That’s right! That’s exactly what we are going to do! Now Mr. Kuro can’t be promoted because of Admiral Kizaru, but in the end, our prestige is not enough. Once our right to speak increases, we can let the higher-ups see Mr. Kuro’s power. In that case, Mr. Kuro’s long-cherished wish will definitely be achieved!”
What they wanted to report to Kuro was that Fortress G-3 was gone, but Dressrosa was willing to contribute Grinbit as a naval base.
And the treaty of the neighboring Kingdom of Korff to join the World Governnt was to build a naval base in his kingdom’s territory. These two naval bases were monopolized by them.
This ti, he was going to report to Kuro and the others to see if there were any instructions.
But listening to Wilbur, Kaz didn’t think it was necessary.
They wanted to take charge of the situation and fight for Mr. Kuro’s face!
