Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Chapter 1380: I’m Not Stupid, Really

The red-skinned old man did not have time to dodge. He could only cross his hands and block the Wolf Knight’s heavy sword strike. With inertia, the red-skinned old man slammed open the door of the Pangu Palace. As the door shattered, the two of them entered the darkness inside the door and gradually disappeared from Kuro’s vision.

Kuro blinked and looked at the wreckage of the door on the ground. He blinked again and finally reached out and rubbed his eyes.

The wind blew and lifted the ends of Kuro’s hair, making his face calm.

Or even… a little dull.

“Kuro, what’s wrong?”

Leda, who appeared from nowhere, saw Kuro’s dazed look and asked curiously.

Kuro was silent for a while and suddenly pointed to the place where the cold and green intertwined and said, “Do you see it?”

“I see, Kuzan and Green Bull are fighting.” Leda nodded.

“Well, why did you fight?” Kuro asked.

“I don’t know,” Leda said curiously.

“That’s true. I don’t even know how you know to go.”

Kuro took a deep breath and picked up a piece of the door on the ground. He pinched it and said, “This thing is so easy to break. It’s the capital gate of the World Government. It can’t be, right? It can’t be. Leda, tell me, am I dreaming now? Actually, I’m still fighting in Headquarters. I’m too tired and fell asleep.”

“Ah?” Leda tilted her head and asked, “Are you tired, Kuro?”

At this moment, Crowe appeared behind him and called softly, “Mr. Kuro…”

Whoosh!

In an instant, Kuro did not even turn his body and raised his hand to throw the fragment out. The door fragment cut through Crowe’s body like a dart, revealing a scar and blood.

“Does it hurt?” Kuro asked.

Crowe quickly shook his head. “No, it doesn’t hurt.”

“Right! It doesn’t hurt, he said it doesn’t hurt, Lida!”

Kuro shouted, “It only hurts when I dream. I am indeed dreaming. Well… as long as I close my eyes and open them again, the dream will wake up.”

With that, he closed his eyes and opened them…

Well, maybe the posture is wrong.

He changed his posture and floated up directly. He lay horizontally in the air and looked like he had just woken up. He even yawned and opened his eyes again.

Well …

Maybe not strong enough.

If you want to wake up from a dream, you have to do it in one go. It’s just like showing respect. You have to save it first, and then… Yes!

Kuro opened his eyes again and saw the clear sky above Mariejois.

He floated up and landed on the ground again, adjusting his breathing.

“Kuro, who was that David?” Leda asked curiously.

“What David? There’s no David. You’re wrong. The red-skinned one is not the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars). The sea is so big. There are red-skinned old men everywhere. There are people wearing armor and holding swords everywhere. Besides, this is all a dream. I just have to close my eyes again and I’ll go back. Damn it, why is it that my dream is full of you idiots!”

Kuro cursed and continued to close his eyes.

However, when he closed his eyes, he heard footsteps. There seemed to be a lot of people.

“Kuro, a lot of Marines ran in.”

“Shut up, I’m not listening, it’s all an illusion, what Marine, it’s all clouds, it’s all an illusion, it’s all an illusion, I’m dreaming!” Kuro closed his eyes and was unmoved, he even turned in a direction.

“This is real, this is not a dream!!”

A thunder-like voice sounded in Kuro’s ear, scaring him. He subconsciously opened his eyes, his mouth unconsciously opened, and he gritted his teeth. His eyes gradually filled with blood, and his face collapsed.

Kaz and Wilbur were in the middle of the Marines who flooded into the Pangu Palace, looking at him closely.

“It’s true, Mr. Kuro!”

Kaz’s face turned red and he clenched his fists excitedly and shouted, “Your long-cherished wish is already on the verge of being realized. Don’t worry, this is definitely not a dream, this is our hard work!”

These words made Kuro even more stunned. He took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, “What did you try to do?”

‘He’s not stupid. Really, really not stupid.’

Mariejois did not see the enemy, but David. After the Marines came up, they did not look for any enemy and came directly to the Pangu Palace. Their actions were so unified, there was no pause in the middle. Although they did not think it was possible, it was very likely…

David seemed to, possibly, probably, perhaps… want something different.

But if it’s different, then it’s different. But what does Cass mean by ‘my long-cherished wish’?

What is my long-cherished wish?

I can retire?

As Kuro asked, Wilbur looked excited. “The ultimate dream of world peace, Mr. Kuro! Your long-standing wish, isn’t that…”

Whoosh!

Kuro’s figure directly flashed and ran into the Pangu Palace, and he also entered with the tide of Marines and could not be found.

“Mr. Kuro!”

Wilbur turned his head and shouted, but he could not see anyone. He asked in confusion, “Are you too excited?”

“Definitely!” Kaz nodded vigorously. “Didn’t Mr. Kuro just say that he was dreaming? Even he can’t believe it. What does this mean? It means that we can finally help Mr. Kuro!!”

As he spoke, he shed tears himself. “Finally, I can finally help Mr. Kuro! All this time, I have been following Mr. Kuro’s approach, and I always thought that I would never be able to keep up with Mr. Kuro’s footsteps, but now Mr. Kuro thinks that he is dreaming, which means that our operation is finally effective!”

“Is that so!”

Wilbur’s eyes widened. “That’s great! We won’t hold Mr. Kuro back anymore. We can really help Mr. Kuro!”

“Yes, Wilbur, we will work harder in the future!”

“Oh! Cass, this is so wonderful!”

Ignoring the flash of lightning in their eyes, Crowe’s mouth twitched and a black line appeared on his forehead.

He felt that this was not good. There was something wrong with Mr. Kuro’s face.

But at this time, even though he had achieved his goal, his face was even worse and he was not happy at all.

According to Crowe’s understanding of his superior, there is only one possibility…

I seem to have guessed wrong again.

Mr. Kuro doesn’t seem to be the purpose, but …

Crowe looked at the brave Marines and swallowed hard. He did not know if he would be beaten to death by Mr. Kuro, but if he told the truth at this time, he would be beaten to death by these Marines and then step over his body and continue forward.

Now, there is no way to change it.

I’m not listening!

I’m not listening!!

I’m not listening!!!

Inside the Pangu Palace, Kuro completely disregarded his image at this time. He ran with his hands and feet open and closed. The blood vessels in his eyes were about to pop out with his eyeballs. When his mouth opened, there was even saliva splashing as he ran. He looked very… dazed.

But Kuro really didn’t want to hear those strange words.

Why is it that in the end, all the blame is on him!

“Kuro!”

As he was running, Kuro suddenly heard the wind and saw a slash appear out of thin air and cut towards him.

Kuro leaned back and dodged the slash, allowing the slash to cut through the surrounding pillars. In the commotion, a bald old man wearing glasses appeared in front of Kuro with a bright knife.

Beside him, a few familiar faces gradually gathered.

An old man with curly hair.

A tall old man with long hair and a long beard.

The old man with the map on his head.

There was also a red-skinned old man covered in injuries.

The supreme ruler of the World Government, Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars), appeared here.
