Mayor Mansion.
Looking at Kaz's excited face, Kuro opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
What could he say?
Say that your Yin soul will not dissipate?
Isn't this a blow to their enthusiasm?
He is lazy and doesn't want to cause trouble, but he doesn't ask others to be like him. If the entire world's Marines are like him, then the world is hopeless.
But if you wanted him to praise Cass, that was even more impossible.
What a joke. With this guy's hot-blooded personality, if he praised him again, he might do something earth-shattering for him.
"We're quite fated, Cass. Please guide me in the future."
After holding it in for a long time, Kuro gave Kaz a slightly stiff smile.
"Yes!"
Kaz saluted and roared, "It's an honor to work with Colonel Kuro!"
"I know, I know…"
Kuro waved his hand helplessly. "You can lead Marines to settle those residents and then report to me."
"Understood, Colonel Kuro, I will do it now!"
Kaz saluted again and went out respectfully.
Kuro was relieved to see Kaz leave.
Fortunately, before this, Crowe had already wiped out all the pirates on the island.
And he also wiped out the Pirate Alliance. Otherwise, there would be a lot to talk about.
With Cass's personality, he would probably get full credit and a direct promotion.
"You must not give him a chance. Did you hear that? If there is a chance, I will go to the New World."
Kuro stared fiercely at Leda and Crowe. "I'm going to the New World. Don't think you can live in peace."
Crowe said nothing.
You are a quasi-Admiral, do you have to threaten your subordinates in order not to be promoted?
"I will look after Cass, Mr. Kuro." Crowe pushed up his glasses.
After all, this was the target of his superior, so Crowe would not disappoint him.
Crowe's own goal has been achieved.
Kuro was a colonel. That rank was enough. He was a major himself and now he was at the base where he was stationed. As long as he developed the town, he could enjoy a peaceful life.
In fact, he could already enjoy it now.
His long-cherished wish could be achieved. Unless necessary, he did not want to move.
Kaz brought nearly 500 Marines this time. As the base Marines stationed on the island, this number is enough. There are also a lot of supplies and weapons. Their addition represents that Pegasus Island is officially included in the Marine system.
Kuro, Chief of the Pegasus Island Marine Base, officially assumed office.
But before taking office, there is a problem, that is the base and shore defense…
… .
"Colonel, why don't you use my mansion as a base? This place is big enough. It should be possible to renovate it."
After spending a day settling all the residents, Kaz and the mayor came to the mansion where Kuro lived.
The mayor's name is Jagul. After two days of reorganization, he has been emitting a good spirit and is not as bad as before.
"Not here."
Kuro directly rejected it. He pointed at the map of Pegasus Town and moved his finger to the center position. "Of course the base has to be built here. It's just a casual job. It has to be safe. It's best if the base has a few cannons."
As he spoke, he pointed to the port. "This place has to be refurbished and made into a coastal defense so that pirates can't easily land here."
The port defense of Pegasus Town was f*cking smashed during the war. It can't be used as a coastal defense by relying on a few cannons. It is very unsafe.
"If it is simply done, some of the townspeople are construction workers and can organize people to build the base," Mayor Jagul said.
Most Marine bases are basically like this.
The branch station, slightly better than East Blue's 153 branches, is a small fortress. The more ordinary one, like Loguetown, found a house as a Marine station.
But in either case, Jaguerr thought his residents could do it.
"No no no, Mayor Jia, I don't want the ordinary kind." Kuro waved his hand.
"My name is Jaguerr, Barshas Jaguerr, not Mayor Jaguerr… Mr. Kuro, I am not a citizen of the Flower Country." Jaguerr silently corrected him.
"Okay, Mayor Jia, I want the kind that is located in the center, the kind of steel fortress that can fire cannons, and then the coastal defense. Do you know Marien Vando? Transform the port into the kind of place with deep coastal defense so that pirates can't enter."
In order to make a base, they naturally had to make it the safest. Ordinary Kuro did not need it.
If it is made into Marin Van Do's Defense Level, no, as long as it is half of it, then the pirates will not think of this place, and no pirates will think of it, then this place will be safe, won't it?
Otherwise, when he developed Pegasus Town and those ignorant pirates came to attack, wouldn't that be giving Kuro credit for nothing?
'What? A rollover?'
He's in the West Blue and he can still roll over?
What kind of monster in West Blue could make him roll over?
"Marlin Vando…"
Jagul was stunned when he heard Kuro's conditions. He looked at Kuro's expression and it didn't seem to be fake, as if he was serious.
Is it really good to build such a fortress in the West Blue?
"There are no craftsmen in the town who can build that kind of fortress?" Kuro asked.
Jagul shook his head frantically.
"Where is the chef? Kaz doesn't seem to have brought any good chef. I want a chef." Leda also asked.
The cook Kaz had brought with him was a regular standard. After all, Kuro was only a colonel, not a lieutenant general, and he couldn't be equipped with a good cook. And although ordinary cooks could also eat happily, if there was a good one, of course they wanted to find a good one.
After all, if nothing goes wrong, Kuro will be stationed here for a long time.
"Tinker and Chef…"
Jagul thought for a moment and said, "Pegasus Town may have had it before, but during the war, they were either dead or had run away. Mr. Kuro, if you really want to find someone who satisfies you, the nearby Flower Country is a good choice."
"Flower Country…"
Kuro was stunned. This place had been mentioned again.
West Blue is a relatively powerful country, and its unique customs always make Kuro feel a little familiar.
"Speaking of which, I do have to go to this place once. I can find a craftsman and a chef."
The Luo family that Zephyra mentioned always made him a little concerned. He could take this opportunity to go to the Flower Country and investigate.
"But before that, let's build the mold. Just make a temporary Marine base in the center. Kaz, I'll leave this to you. Also, if it's on the coast, put the cannon there and make a temporary shelf." Kuro pointed to two places on the map.
"Yes, Colonel Kuro, I will not let you down!" Kaz said respectfully.
"Mayor Jia, I'll leave the hot spring to you. First, detect if there is a hot spring on this island. If there is no hot spring, I will think of a way," Kuro said.
"My name is Jagul… Okay, I understand. I will do it, Mr. Kuro," Jagul said helplessly.
