Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

King of Kings (1)

Karami’s words made David’s heart skip a beat.

Yes, logically speaking, he shouldn’t have made that call. He had already discovered this guy’s ability when he was hit.

That is the ability to make people agree with his thoughts, but once they agree with him, they will be assimilated by him and they will automatically recognize him as their leader.

The soldiers he brought, including himself, were all accidentally locked by his ability. The soldiers only resisted for a while before being assimilated, and he, David, was still struggling to hold on.

But Karami’s words shocked David.

If I can really hold on, why would I make that call…

That call, including what he said, should not have been his intention. Otherwise, he should have revealed this person’s ability.

“Do you feel it?”

Karami smiled. “That’s right. You are affected by my ability and you are agreeing with my ideas. We are born noble and should lead those who are low. Their only purpose of birth is to provide for us and give their lives for us. It is their honor.”

“You are not only a king, but your family also has a long history. Since 800 years ago, you have noble blood. Otherwise, why do you think the people of Dressrosa will agree with you. But you are resisting. I don’t know what you are resisting, but it doesn’t matter. Your call for reinforcements is your idea combined with mine. I know that there is a group of Marines stationed in your kingdom. Such a powerful force, of course it is mine.”

Karami spread his hands and said, “With these, I will have the foundation of my rule. The nobles will get their own territory, David, and I will not kill you. You will still be the king of Dressrosa, and those areas conquered by you will also become kings, but only I will be the king of kings!”

“Let go of David!!”

At this time, with a roar from Kaz, Marines had arrived.

Karami smiled and said to the soldiers, “Want to become a noble? Becoming a noble requires merits. Now is the time. Go, stop them.”

When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they immediately turned around and formed a human wall in front of Marine.

“Those are…”

Wilbur saw that it was the soldiers of the Dressrosa Kingdom who were blocking them, but at this moment they were slightly excited. They should have been training with the Marines, but now they seemed to have seen some prey.

Behind them, the nobles who had been ‘captured’ stared at them with interest.

And in the center, David was half-kneeling, a young man in front of him holding a phantom chain.

The young man smiled.

“Be, be careful!”

David gritted his teeth and roared, but in his anxiety, Karami seized the opportunity and pulled hard, and the shadow of the chain became even fainter.

David’s body suddenly curled up and the thoughts in his mind changed rapidly.

Master’s mission?

Master’s mission is not right. Why does he want to kill us nobles?

There are nobles in this world, and the high and mighty Tenryubito is the greatest noble. Master, no, Kuro is also Tenryubito’s lackey, even worse than the nobles.

Why does he want it? I am the king of Dressrosa!

No! That’s not right!

Master’s mission is sacred!

I am Master’s knight and should fulfill his wish for him. This is the destiny of a knight.

“It’s too late, Mind Chain!”

Just as David’s mind was in a state of war, Karami said something. His other hand reached forward and a large number of chains flew out of his hand, directly through the wall of soldiers in front of him and rushed into the Marines, connecting to their hearts.

Even Kaz and Wilbur were stabbed in the heart by the chains.

“Now, you are completely hopeless.”

Karami smiled and said, “I heard that you are from G-3. There is a very powerful Vice-Admiral there. His name is Jin Lu, right? When I conquer you, I will conquer Jin Lu and take G-3 into my hands. In this way, this sea will completely submit to me.”

At this moment, the soldiers separated so that the group of Marines could see Karami.

“Who are you?” Kaz said coldly.

“My name is Karami, a pirate, a pirate who has not been out to sea for long, but my goal is to become your king, the king of kings, and then I will rule this sea.”

Karami smiled at Kaz and said, “I know you, ‘Great Shield’ Kaz and ‘Big Spear’ Wilbur are all very famous Marines. Now, come and kneel down to your new master. Correspondingly, I will grant you noble status.”

“Are you kidding me?” Kaz frowned. “A pirate without a bounty. Are you insulting justice?”

Karami smiled and did not answer directly. He just said lightly, “I am a ‘tamed man’ who ate the ‘Tame-Tame Fruit’. As long as you are hit by my ability chain, just like taming a beast, you will gradually be invaded by my thoughts and agree with my philosophy and become my guardian. In the end, you will be tamed by me, just like these nobles and soldiers.”

“How can you use such an ugly word.”

A noble said unhappily, “We are not animals.”

Karami glanced at the man and said, “The king is a herdsman and you are all sheep. What’s the problem?”

The noble half-knelt on the ground and put his hand on his chest. “No, Your Majesty, the Great King of Kings.”

“Good.” Karami smiled with satisfaction.

This is his ability. It is not to turn people into machines, but to change their hearts and minds. Although they still have their own thoughts, they are essentially the same as him.

Just like the shepherd.

“Now come and meet your king!”

Karami pulled the chain and half of the hundreds of chains turned into shadows and faded from the Marines.

But there are still half of the chains, which have only become much more transparent. The chains are still there, and there are still two chains, which are only a little illusory, which are the chains that connect Kaz and Wilbur.

“Oh? There are many people with tenacious will. I like it very much. The more tenacious your will is, once it is tamed, your tenacious will will become my help.”

Kalamara held the chain and smiled. “Then, experience the natural thoughts of the King of Kings, which belongs to the thoughts of those born noble.”

For the Marines who originally belonged to G-3, their thoughts changed the moment the chain disappeared.

What’s the point of being a bitter Marine? Although the salary is high, this is a gamble with your life. What’s the use of that damn justice? Pirates are still pirates.

In contrast, they have undergone so much training, should they obtain some status that ordinary people cannot obtain?

“Yes, you will have status. What’s the use of working hard to fight pirates? You won’t get anything.”

Karami slowly said, “Why don’t you come to my country and I will give you status. Think about it, the civilians you protect are useless. When the pirates come, they will still be afraid and will run away. What you do is meaningless and you will even be punished. Why don’t you fight for me, because I won’t blame you. I will give you land and give you sheep-like civilians to command. You will also get the qualifications of a shepherd and lead a flock of sheep for me.”

Yeah …

If they could become nobles, they might not have to work so hard. Aristocrats could also protect civilians and they did not have to train desperately every day, but in the end, it would still be meaningless.

Justice… seems to be the case.

“Stop joking!!”

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the crowd.
