Chapter 1102: Show Me Your Grace
Translator:?Atlas Studios??Editor:?Atlas Studios
On the fourth day of the banquet, Marines came and went, but except for those with urgent missions, they were all in the big square of the Headquarters at this time, wearing cloaks and standing straight. Although the number of Marines was not as magnificent as that of the War of the Best, there were 20,000 to 30,000 people.
They gathered here for a moment.
It was no longer a dining room, but in the Sky Guardian Pavilion above the largest building in Headquarters, a few people were sitting in the Marshal’s office.
Sakasugi sat in the main seat biting his cigar and bowed his head in silence.
Garp, Sengoku, and Tsuru sat in a triangle. Tsuru shook his head helplessly as he watched Garp and Sengoku fighting over the shell.
Kizaru sat on the sofa with a cup of tea in his hand, sipping it and smiling from time to time.
Kuro, on the other hand, was playing chess with a blind uncle in purple clothes and a purple cloak. Yes, playing chess and playing chess.
Kizaru glanced down and said with a smile, “A thousand hands, so scary, Kuro.”
“What can we do? No, you blind man, why are you still so good at chess? You can’t see it, can you?!” Kuro pulled the corner of his mouth and said to A smile in front of him.
“I can distinguish the position by sound. The sound of each piece on the chessboard is different. Speaking of which, it’s a draw for four times. Are you giving in to me, little brother?” With a smile, he said lightly.
The Thousand-Day Hand, which is the same chess situation that appeared four times in Shogi, is the reason for this professional term.
It was not that Kuro asked him to play, but mainly because he did not know how to play chess himself. It was purely because he was bored and was playing chess with an old blind man.
He was about to be promoted to a general, so Yixiao came to support him.
The two of them were bored and decided to play chess here.
“Is it almost time.”
Seeing that the result was the same after playing four times, Kuro simply leaned back and stopped playing chess. He lit a cigar and asked the others.
No, it’s awkward. I thought that I would be able to get through the next blind person, but it turns out that it’s still the same situation now. Then what’s the point of going down?
Sakasugi nodded. “Jendo should be here by noon, when you become a general.”
John Jandor, a Giant Vice-Admiral, is also at this banquet. This time, Kuro became a Admiral mainly because of the loud voice of this Giant Vice-Admiral.
The giants are at least Vice-Admiral when they join the Marine. As a racial talent, their combat power is very strong. However, he is not a main combatant in the Marine Headquarters, but is responsible for lecturing and instructor.
“Report!”
Just as Sakasugi spoke, the door was pushed open and a giant Vice-Admiral wearing a pale yellow military uniform with a large number of medals on his chest walked in and saluted everyone present. “John Jaindo reporting!”
“It’s almost time.”
Sakasugi stood up and said, “Jando, let’s begin.”
“Yes!”
Giando saluted again, then nodded and smiled at Kuro. He walked to the balcony first and faced the many standing Marines below.
The people below ranged from Mid-Admiral to Major. They were all famous Marine Admiral majors in the sea.
Kuro saw this scene and sighed. He also glanced at Kizaru, who smiled at him and stood up and walked towards the balcony.
At noon, the sun reached its highest point.
“Those who want to escape, escape now!!”
At this time, Jain Do opened his voice and roared, “There is no trace of cowardice here. In the chaotic era after the War of the Best, this place symbolizes peace and is a fortress of peace!!”
“The weakness of the people is not their sin, because it is just the people, they can’t resist the invasion of the pirates, but! But our justice is here! As long as a powerful evil force appears on the sea, we Marine will do our best to expel it! In the name of justice, expel all evil!”
“Expel all evil!!”
The Marines below directly roared. Kaz and Wilbur were the loudest in the line of Vice-Admiral in front of them. Their faces were flushed with excitement.
“Today!!”
Giando continued to roar: “We are going to have a special moment, our Admiral, Marine who has been conscientious for decades, Polusalino! He is retiring!!”
“He is an old Marine who has made a lot of contributions to the cause of justice, and he has been the backbone of our Marine since a long time ago! But Polusalino, Admiral Kizaru, also has times when he is not well, and there are also times when he is old and unable to grasp everything!”
Retirement …
Although everyone present already knew, when these words were officially said, it still caused many people to whisper.
Another pillar of the Marine Corps is going to retire. After Zephyra, Sengoku, and Karp, the new generation of three generals, except for Sakasugi, the remaining two are finally going to retire.
They were all people who had served the Marine for more than ten years or even decades. They fought with the three generals and watched them rise step by step in the Marine. Now, another old colleague was going to retire. Although they had long known it, they were still in a state of confusion.
“Don’t be confused! Where is your justice!!”
Jarndo seemed to have noticed this state and roared, “Could it be that without a general, you can’t carry out justice? Justice is with us. Our goal is to expel evil, not to rely on a general to expel evil!”
These words shocked everyone and their bodies stood up again.
At this time, Kizaru appeared next to Giando and waved down. “Oh, it’s so scary. There are so many people. Keep working hard, everyone.”
“Yes! This is what Admiral Kizaru said, we must continue to work hard!!”
Giando roared, “Besides, although Admiral Kizaru is retired, he is not not serving in the Marine, but he just gave the opportunity to someone more qualified! With the withdrawal of a Admiral, we will welcome a new Admiral!!!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone raised their heads in unison and looked at the direction of the Tianshou Pavilion.
“It’s your turn.”
Crane patted Kuro’s back and said with a smile, “Show me your strength as a young general.”
Kuro stubbed out his cigar and shrugged. He walked to the balcony and stared at the many Marines below.
“Our new Admiral, who has joined the Marine for more than ten years, has made outstanding contributions to the Marine, and defeated many big pirates, the young Marine — Kim Kukulo!!” Jandor roared with a flushed face.
From the looks of it, he seems to be shouting at the top of his lungs.
But why did he work so hard? Couldn’t he keep a low profile? Really, he just wanted to deal with it quietly.
