I Just Wanted to Retire, But Was Forced to Become a General

The Great Pirate Era.

The great seas surge and churn, powerhouses destroy and annihilate, each fighting their own battles. It's utterly—

Demotivating!

I, Russil Kuro, age tw...

Chapter 661 Retreat

Warring States Period?

These words delighted Kuro, but also made Charlotte Linlin catch her breath.

Another one?

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the two people opposite her.

It must be admitted that there is no way to contend with two generals-level combatants.

She's suffering more losses now.

If the fighting continues, nothing else will happen.

If the Warring States period were to happen again...

Then she definitely won't be able to continue fighting.

Two days of fighting had gradually diminished Charlotte Linlin's anger, and now, upon hearing that Sengoku had arrived, she regained her composure.

Now is not the time for a stalemate, or we will suffer a great loss.

She had already created two natural Homies using her soul power. These were not other people's souls, but her own. After using them, they needed to rest and recuperate.

The last time a Homie was built was decades ago.

Dragging this out any longer won't do any good; there's nothing we can do about these two guys.

"You, especially you! Kuro brat, I won't let you get away with this!"

Charlotte Linlin gritted her teeth, staring intently at Kuro, before reluctantly uttering, "Anemi, retreat."

"Yes, Mom!"

The gust of wind that enveloped her carried her body rapidly backward, and the remaining Homies followed suit.

"Want to leave?"

Yi Xiao gripped his staff and prepared to give chase.

"No need, brother."

A hand blocked his way.

Kuro shook his head, stopping Ikko from giving chase. "There's no point in chasing her any further. If she wants to run, the two of us can't stop her."

No one can defeat two generals, but even two generals cannot stop a Yonko from escaping.

This isn't an RPG where you fight a boss to the death.

They are human beings; they can think, use strategies, and escape.

Even if they pursue them and reach Totto Land, they will get bogged down in the Totto Land war. If the Navy intervenes then, it will trigger another Marineford War.

The navy is not ready yet.

Moreover, the other four emperors of the New World probably wouldn't agree to this.

The concept of balance exists between the Navy and the Four Emperors; no matter how hostile they are, they subconsciously don't want to break it.

If things really come to a point of no return, Charlotte Linlin will die, but the two of them will probably not fare much better.

In that case, it will only give other forces an opportunity.

A strong navy is a crucial benchmark for maintaining world peace.

This strength must not reveal any flaws.

"hiss..."

Kuro then began to grimace. Seeing Charlotte Linlin disappear, he relaxed, but as he relaxed, he felt pain all over his body.

Charlotte Linlin was seriously injured, but he and Yixiao were not unscathed either.

I broke at least three ribs.

The Xuanwu body has been shattered countless times.

Xiao was also in a terrible state. Not to mention the minor injuries, his most serious injury was when his head was hit by a dry gun, and the dried blood congealed in front of his eye.

Their physical abilities are no match for that monster.

"Pursuit is indeed no longer effective."

After being stopped by Kuro, Issho thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "By the way, is Sengoku-san coming over?"

"Ah... I guess they heard the news, and judging from the situation, they're not far from here."

Kuro glanced back at Dressrosa.

The birdcage... has disappeared.

Similarly, he couldn't sense the Straw Hat crew's presence, and the annoying flamingo's aura had also weakened to a certain extent.

This guy lost.

"Brother, go back and take a look."

Kuro sheathed Autumn Water, smiled at Ichiro, and flew towards Dressrosa.

Meanwhile, a group of marines were already eagerly waiting in front of Dressrosa, where a large corner was missing.

"Kuro!"

Upon seeing Kuro fly back, Lida exclaimed, "Are you alright?"

Do I look like I'm alright?

Kuro landed, rolled his eyes, and said, "Hurry up and do it for me."

"oh."

Lida nodded decisively, and with a flash, she first appeared as an afterimage next to the other marines, and then appeared next to Kuro.

"I'll lend you some of my energy."

Those sailors felt as if half of their energy and spirit had been lost.

Lida reached out and pressed her hand against Kuro, saying, "Energy feedback!"

"call..."

Kuro felt enveloped in a warm sensation, his external injuries gradually healed, and his broken ribs began to improve at this moment. He breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright, that's enough. Now, treat your brother."

"Uncle Yixiao, do you need treatment...?"

Lida nodded, raised her hand, and walked toward Yixiao.

"Oh? Healing? Miss Lida, you have such talent? Then I shall accept your offer with a gentle smile." Yixiao nodded his thanks.

After all the treatments were completed, Kuro asked Bastiyo and Maynard, who were leading the group, "What's the situation now?"

The two men exchanged a glance, and Maynard said, "Doflamingo has failed. He and his men have been arrested by us."

“I knew it…” Kuro beckoned to Maynard with his finger. “Give me a cigarette, I’m out of stock.”

Upon hearing this, Maynard quickly took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Kuro.

He pulled out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled a puff of smoke. "That arrogant idiot, he really failed after all. What about the Straw Hat crew?"
