Kuro was taken aback, his cigar nearly falling out of his mouth. "My hometown? Who's that?!"

His hometown?

Someone wore it?!

“His name is Ogee. He says he knows you and is currently docked at the port,” Lida said.

"oh oh..."

Kuro's expression turned calm. So this is his hometown... He was almost scared to death. He thought that his tyrannical behavior as a warlord here had been exposed, and that his hometown was going to send people to arrest him.

“Ogee…it’s been a long time. He’s from my hometown, so let him in. We can catch up.” Kuro said.

Ogi, a merchant from Shells Town, was still young when this man always wanted to get him involved in merchant shipping so he could inherit his mantle and become the 'King of Merchants'.

But this memory is somewhat distant. He had rarely seen Ogee since he was six years old, and even less so after he joined the navy at the age of fourteen.

Come to think of it, it's been more than ten years since I last saw it.

But why did this person suddenly contact him...?

Soon, following behind Lida, a bald man who looked to be around fifty or sixty years old appeared at the office door carrying a large box. Upon seeing Kuro, he immediately smiled and said:

"Long time no see, little Kuro! You've made a name for yourself all this time, and now you're a lieutenant general with a code name!"

It's him, no doubt about it.

Even after so many years, you can still see the shadow of youth.

"Uncle Ouji..."

Kuro stood up and laughed, "It really has been a long time. I haven't heard from you for over ten years. What have you been up to? Has your business grown bigger and bigger?"
