Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

Golden Lion (1)

Golden Lion Ren is a famous pirate in the previous era. Even ‘One Piece’ Roger doesn’t think that anyone can compete with Golden Lion before defeating him.

Powerful, overbearing, conceited, heroic. As a strong person, he has all the advantages and disadvantages.

Three Marines sneaking onto the island?

There was nothing worth paying attention to.

What he paid attention to, other than the current world’s number one swordsman, the rest are just Sengoku Karp, Whitebeard, Kaido and Lingling, his old friends and colleagues.

Red hair?

Although the brat on Roger’s ship became Yonkō (Four Emperors) a few years ago, Golden Lion still didn’t care about him.

His current situation is World Government and Marine Headquarters.

“Roger can’t be defeated!”

Shiki sat on top of the palace and looked at the East Blue Sea under the projection with a ferocious look in his eyes. “Damn World Government, damn Marine, you used conspiracies. Then, I will destroy the East Blue and start a war with you!”

S.I.Q.’s production reserve is almost complete. The only thing that is not completed now is the number of dire beasts. There are still too few dire beasts on the island. For this, he has to go back to the Grand Line to find powerful animals and then complete his final plan.

This won’t take more than a few days.

Immediately, his plan will…

Whoosh!

Inside the palace, a wind suddenly blew. The staff who were measuring the weather rolled their eyes and fell to the ground.

Shiki was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, his pupils contracted and he stood up. “Killing intent?!”

This killing intent is too strong. Who is it?

Kaido?

No, he was more of a battle spirit.

Lingling?

There is a lack of a sense of shudder, this killing intent is too pure.

Who the hell is that?

… .

At the edge of the central island, after Kuro swung his blade, the creatures of the floating island group could not withstand his killing intent and all fell, and there were not many people who resisted his killing intent.

The Den Den Mushi on his wrist was still making calls. Kuro was a little unwilling to give up. He was going to face Golden Lion. If Kizaru answered the phone at this time, he would have more assurance.

But obviously, that was impossible.

It rang for a moment, but there was still no answer. Kuro sighed and hung up. He took off his wristwatch and threw it to Leda.

“If we don’t deal with it seriously, we might really die.”

He twisted his neck and moved his limbs. He stepped forward and heaved a long sigh of relief. He made a posture of drawing his sword and holding the hilt of the [Hua Zhou] tightly. He locked onto the figure in the distant palace that emitted the aura of a lion.

Armament Haki wrapped around Huazhou, and just like before, the black aura was so dense that it seemed to be rising.

Shua!

The blade was unsheathed and a black and gold half-moon-shaped slash swept out horizontally towards the palace.

It would be best if he could kill the Golden Lion with one slash…

Just as Kuro’s imagination was running wild, the building of the palace was knocked open and a black-and-gold vertical half-moon slash collided with Kuro’s slash.

Bang!!!

The earth was trembling and the dust floated up a few times. Under the intersection of the two slashes, it became still.

Even the floating island moved down a little.

“Tsk, Lida, Crowe.”

Kuro smacked his lips and said to the two of them.

The two nodded and split up, running towards the palace on both sides.

Golden Lion did not care about their combat power, but it was enough to deal with others.

Kuro couldn’t remember the name of the potion that made animals go crazy on this island, but he knew that there was such a potion and it was better to disappear as soon as possible.

In the sky, Golden Lion’s figure gradually moved up and flew towards Kuro.

Soon, the figure of the legendary great pirate slowly landed.

Kuro looked up and finally saw the legendary big pirate.

His legs were tied with swords, and he had a rudder on his head. His golden hair reached his waist, and he had so much hair that many people in his previous life would be envious.

Golden Lion held a cigar in his mouth and looked up arrogantly at Kuro.

“My name is ‘Golden Lion’ Shiki, a pirate. Kid, as a Marine, you can actually emit that kind of killing intent. It’s rare, but do you think you can beat me by cleaning up the trash?”

He was not stupid. No matter how strong his killing intent was, it was just his aura. At most, it would intimidate the trash fish.

The purpose was to clear the area.

But what’s the use of clearing the field? He is Golden Lion!

Shiki looked at the handle of the knife that Kuro was holding and said appreciatively, “Slash is not bad. It’s a pity for a person like you to be a Marine. Why don’t you help me? You also use Golden Slash. Come and help me. After I die, you will be the next Golden Lion.”

Kuro twisted his wrist and a beam of light slashed out from in front of him.

Dang!

Shiki raised his foot and the sword on his foot blocked Kuro’s extremely fast slash. “It seems that he refused.”

Kuro stared at Shiki, and a red light flashed in his eyes. He grinned and said, “I’m even careful as a Marine, let alone as a pirate. Old man, why didn’t you live in seclusion in the old era? Why did you have to come out and find trouble!”

As a coward… no, a person who wants to be safe, Kuro usually doesn’t want to fight with others, but when it comes to this time, how can he not do anything?

This is a Golden Lion!

Unlike Hawkeye and Kizaru, the former was a test, and the latter was just a spar, but this time, it was blade against blade, swordsman against swordsman, life and death!

If he was careless, he would die.

The blade of [Hua Zhou] rubbed against the blade of Golden Lion’s leg towards him, causing a spark and directly cutting Golden Lion’s waist.

Whoosh!

Golden Lion flew up and stabbed Kuro’s head with his left foot.

Kuro turned around and stabbed with his sword, and the edge of the blade was stuck on the tip of Golden Lion’s sword. Golden Lion smiled and the tip of the sword missed Kuro’s blade and stabbed him in the face. At the same time, his other foot floated up and swung towards Kuro.

Dang!

Kuro twisted his wrist and the blade cut straight into one of Golden Lion’s swords. His other hand appeared with Armament Haki and caught the sword.

“Eye Sword!”

Kuro’s eyes opened wide and his killing intent solidified as he rushed towards Golden Lion.

Shiki laughed. “That kind of thing is useless to me!”

Kuro caught his foot sword with his hand and kicked Kuro away. Then, he rushed over and stabbed Kuro with his feet.

Kuro flipped in the air and blocked Shiki’s foot sword with a backhand slash.

Dang!

Dang dang dang dang!!!

Sparks flashed in front of the two of them. Shiki floated in the air and waved his feet. Kuro’s hands were almost invisible and every knife blocked the Golden Lion’s attack.

**TIP**

As Golden Lion kicked again, Kuro caught his sword with his left hand again. Then, his eyes widened and his left arm seemed to have grown stronger, throwing Golden Lion away.

“Cut!”

Kuro suddenly waved his blade and the black-golden blade was sent flying.

Shiji, who was in the air, revealed a sinister smile. His body, which was flying backward, suddenly fell and dodged the slash. At the same time, he raised his toes and a black and gold slash flew over.

“Zhanbo!”

“One Blade Flow: Line of Sky!”

Kuro sheathed his sword and his figure disappeared. A black-and-gold ‘line’ shot straight towards the Golden Lion from where he stood. When the slash met the line, it broke into two pieces and the remaining slash flew in two directions, destroying all the trees and forests along the way.

The land is so clean.

Shiki looked back at Kuro, who had appeared behind him and was putting his sword back into its sheath. He grinned and said, “Jiuhe?”
