He thought for a moment, then smiled slightly: "Never mind, it wouldn't be fun if Kuro found out and got angry with me."

He looked up at the words 'ambiguous justice' above him, and for a moment, he seemed lost in thought.

...

Outside, Lida saw Kuro humming a little tune as he came out and hurriedly asked, "What does the Admiral want with you? I heard some noise just now. Nothing happened between you two, did it?"

Kuro said, "The old guy insisted on sparring with me, got me all worked up, and then stopped. It was really tedious. But oh well, Kizaru is alright. Being his subordinate is better than being anyone else's. Under him, I have an extra layer of security."

He's a warrant officer, so transferring to headquarters would definitely require a superior. Rather than being assigned to one of those officers, he might as well join Kizaru's side.

The old hoodlum leads the young hoodlum.

Moreover, Kizaru is currently mainly focused on Vegapunk's side, and capturing pirates is just a side effect, so he's in no hurry.

Kuro was brimming with confidence, thinking, "As long as I don't achieve anything, danger won't be able to catch me."

Making a name for myself is impossible; it's impossible in this lifetime.

As long as he isn't promoted, the headquarters won't be able to assign him any duties. And since he's directly under Kizaru, he can refuse to be summoned by others. If he's so capable, he should go find Kizaru.

Moreover, one cannot rely on him, a warrant officer, for some important matters.

Even the navy has to follow procedures.

Even high-ranking generals cannot be easily promoted without merit; they must submit a report to the government.

Without merit or fame, and unable to get promoted, who the hell would want to work for him?

Therefore, I, Lucilculuo, will never perform any meritorious service!
