After what Kaz did, Kuro's anger was gone.
Becoming a Vice-Admiral is a foregone conclusion that cannot be changed.
It would be fine if he did not go to a damn place like New World, but if he did, he had to be fully prepared and make himself absolutely safe!
The sense of crisis that had been in the first half and the four seas for a long time was the greatest at this moment.
However, although he was not angry, and although he was in a bad mood.
He did not greet the old man and did not want to participate in any Fish Party meeting. After coming out of the office, he walked towards the port.
In the square, Kuro bit his cigar and walked in front with a sinister expression, followed by his three subordinates.
"Vice Admiral Kuro!"
Kirby came out of nowhere and congratulated him excitedly. "Congratulations on your promotion. It was so cool just now. You actually have so many resumes!"
Kuro glared at him with bloodshot eyes and walked towards the port without saying anything.
"Eh?" Kirby tilted his head, a little confused.
"He's in a bad mood."
Crowe patted Kirby's shoulder, reassured her and followed her.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
Kirby looked at Kuro's receding back and murmured, "Did he not get promoted to Admiral?"
With this question in mind, Kirby went to Karp.
At this moment, Garp was still competing with Sengoku to see who could eat more donuts.
Yes, he had finished his scallops.
"Vice-Admiral Garp, Inspector Sengoku."
Kirby and Beirut saluted the two of them. Then Kirby said, "I just met Vice-Admiral Kuro. He seems a little unhappy."
"You have to call it Golden Lion."
Sengoku corrected him. "This code name will come down soon. In the future, when you call Kuro, try to use code names. This is the rule."
"Yes, Inspector Sengoku!" Kirby responded.
"As for why you are unhappy…"
Sengoku chuckled. "It's probably because he hasn't been promoted to a general."
"Puhaha, that kid Kuro, it's still too early to be a general, and Polusalino hasn't retired yet." Garp laughed and ate a donut.
"Hey, don't eat my doughnut, bastard!" Sengoku shouted.
"I have a question. Why doesn't Headquarters promote another Admiral position so that Mr. Kuro won't be so unhappy?" Kirby said.
"Pfft hahaha, impossible, impossible."
Karp waved his hand. "That's impossible."
"Indeed."
Sengoku nodded. "A long time ago, there were only two Admiral positions in the Headquarters. Then, in order to deal with the Great Age of Pirates, the World Government made the Admiral positions become three, which are the three Marine Admiral positions that you later became familiar with. But three is already the limit. If there are more, the World Government will not be the only one in trouble."
Even if the World Government wants to increase this thing, it is not something that can be done by doing it alone.
There was too much involved.
Although on the surface, they are united against pirates.
What is certain is that there is nothing wrong with the general direction of 'justice'.
But internally, there are still many problems.
Ideas, factions, territories, and all kinds of problems are on the Marine side.
Over the decades, the Basic Board of the Three Generals and the faction of the old-school Marine have stabilized. Even if Sakasugi carried out the 'World Conscription', the premise is that Kuzan left and there are shortcomings.
Even so, the new Admiral's power is too weak.
Another general?
If it is brought up by the old Marine, then this problem will be highlighted. It is not an ordinary trouble to redistribute factions and power.
And if there is another one like Fujitora and Green Bull, it is better not to go and no one will agree.
Even Sengoku himself would not agree.
"Kuro, if you want to be a general, you can only take over from Polusalino. Don't think about anything else."
Sengoku looked at the square outside the window from this room and said lightly, "Young man, it's good to train more. A general in his twenties is too young. I don't think Borusalino will agree."
That old monkey will definitely abdicate for Kuro, but now is not the time.
He is still in his prime and can protect Kuro for a while. Although his faction has firmly identified Kuro, Kuro has never been a Vice-Admiral and has not dealt with some problems in the New World. Now is not the time.
If you don't want to be a "banger", it's best to rise step by step.
"Puhaha, don't think about that kind of thing. Hey, Kirby, Beru Maybo, do you want to eat doughnuts together?" Garp asked while holding up the doughnut.
"Don't eat my doughnut, you bastard!" Sengoku roared.
At the same time, on a balcony higher in the Marshal's office, Sakasugi and Kizaru stood there and looked down together.
"Is Kuro angry?"
Sakasugi watched the small figure walk towards the port and said, "Did you not become a general?"
"Who knows." Kizaru said with a smile, "I don't think so. Otherwise, if he wants to be one, I can retire early. After all, it's the world of young people now."
"It's not time yet, Polusalino."
Sakasugi clenched his fists and said, "Now is not the time to explore the interior of the Marine. The current Marine is unprecedentedly strong under my leadership. At this time, we must take the initiative to attack!"
The result of a high-end combat force is completely different.
Just like how that idiot Kuzan helped Blackbeard in [Battle of Eradication], which led to Blackbeard's victory.
Kuro's existence, in addition to giving Marine a high-end combat power that determines the battle situation, he has another feature.
This can be seen from his resume.
Why did Sakasugi announce Kuro's achievements in public? Because all the big pirates Kuro killed ran out of Impel Down.
The criminals on the sixth floor were not only killed by Kuro. Those powerful people were now wandering in the sea.
"This old man will announce the matter of the Golden Lion to the entire sea!" Sakasugi said.
In addition to announcing this matter in front of the Marines, the other people on the sea should also know about Kuro, no, about Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un's achievements.
This was to warn those old guys who escaped and were restless.
Tell them …
Stay there quietly and wait for death, you old rotten ghosts!
This is Kuro's ability. In the entire Marine, he is the only one qualified to intimidate the criminals on the sixth floor!
"If we do this, Kuro will have a hard time." Kizaru scratched his head.
"Marine, it doesn't matter whether you work hard or not, this is all for justice!" Sakasugi said firmly.
