West Sea.
After sailing for several days, Kuro's warships finally crossed the Calm Belt and reached the Western Sea.
Because he had cut off the Den Den Mushi's signal in advance and put his own watch Den Den Mushi in the cabin, he couldn't receive any calls.
As for the news seagull.
Before even getting close, he was frightened by Kuro's murderous aura and went around to the back. After several times, the news seagull also remembered Kuro's aura and dared not go forward, which made his journey smooth sailing.
The weather was nice in the area where they were sailing. Kuro pulled up a deck chair and lay down on the deck, with a cold drink in his left hand and a cigar in his right, occasionally snatching some snacks from Lida. He was having a great time.
"Hey, don't touch my snacks, or I'll kill you!"
After Kuro stole her snacks for the second time, Lida finally couldn't take it anymore and hugged her little backpack, yelling fiercely.
"What's wrong with eating a little?"
Kuro chuckled as he reached for his cold drink, but it was already empty.
"Crow, we're out of cold drinks, go get me one." He said to Crow next to him.
Kuro adjusted his glasses, opened his mouth, and hesitated before saying, "Um, Mr. Kuro, I'm a major, after all..."
He had wanted to say this for a long time, but this time he simply couldn't bear it any longer.
He's a major at headquarters, not some lowly errand boy. Even though he's Kuro's subordinate, you can't be this disrespectful.
Believe it or not, I'll turn on you!
"Huh? What's wrong now?" Kuro asked, puzzled.
"No, it's okay, I'll go get it."
Kro pursed his lips, forced a smile, picked up the empty cup, and turned to walk towards the galley inside the warship.
"By the way, where's Sazir?"
He asked a passing navy officer.
"Reporting, Lieutenant Commander Crowe, Lieutenant Sazel is at the rear!" the navy officer shouted, snapping to attention.
"Call him over, I'm going to give him special training later!" Kro spat out through gritted teeth.
"yes!"
The navy officer stood at attention, saluted, and jogged to the rear of the warship.
Meanwhile, behind them, Sazir was sitting on the railing, one leg crossed, chatting and joking with a navy man, occasionally letting out a laugh.
He was holding a bunch of sunflower seeds in one hand, cracking them open in his mouth, and saying, "Let me tell you..."
"Lieutenant Sazel!"
The trotting sailor interrupted him, standing at attention and speaking.
"Oh? Is something the matter?"
Sazier, still in a good mood, turned to the navy man with a smile and casually picked up a sunflower seed and put it in his mouth.
"Major Crowe wants to see you. He wants you to go to the deck as soon as possible. He says he wants to give you special training."
These words froze Sazir's smile.
The sunflower seeds I was about to put in my mouth fell to the ground because I let go of them.
That expression gradually changed to that of a stunned squirrel, as if it was about to shout out in the next second.
"Why me again..." he said in despair.
At that moment, Chloe, who was changing the cold drinks in the kitchen, had a similar expression. Looking at the drinks on the tray, he grumbled, "Why me again..."
Regardless of their inner thoughts, Kuro was certainly pleased with himself.
He's in a really damn good mood right now.
Because there are no more worries!
Given this situation, he could basically stay in Xihai until he dies.
Although West Sea is still not as good as his hometown East Sea, he actually prefers to be transferred to his hometown of Shells Town to replace the current Lipa as the base commander. But if that's not possible, West Sea is fine too.
People should know how to be content.
He is very content now.
He is very content with retiring to Pegasus Island.
A few days later, the group arrived at Pegasus Island.
However, when they went, there were only some navy soldiers, but when they came back, there were three thousand more clone soldiers.
In a good mood, Kuro generously requisitioned land near the naval base, expanding the base even further.
This way, the newly arrived navy had a place to live, and the civilians whose land was confiscated also made a fortune. They then used the money to settle in more remote areas, making Pegasus Island seem even larger.
This was supposed to be changed anyway.
As Pegasus Town becomes more and more prosperous, the buildings in the central area are falling behind, and these areas appear somewhat poor compared to the areas he has newly developed.
Besides being the base commander of Pegasus Island, Kuro is also the island's owner, having acquired a large amount of wasteland there. He also needs to consider the quality of life for the residents.
It's wasteland, so it can be renovated for free to build better houses. It's also close to the newly developed bustling area, and the original residents were given a resettlement fee. Plus, Kuro's reputation on the island makes it so appealing that no one would be willing to do it.
Three thousand clone soldiers were thus stationed on Pegasus Island and became part of the Navy.
Originally, the Four Seas Branch Base was not large enough to require that many troops, but Kuro had deep roots in the organization.
But no one was willing to use that as an excuse to brush him off.
He brought three thousand people back just like that.
Other airborne units wouldn't receive the same treatment.
Even if someone in a legitimate organization suddenly rises to a high position, without a strong network of connections and a sense of belonging, their efforts will be far less effective.
Moreover, while Kuro had a headache dealing with these three thousand people, he would still be willing to accept them if they were on Pegasus Island.
This further strengthens Pegasus Island's power, making it even less likely for foolish pirates to attack the island.
Generally, large fleets of that size also have about this many people.
However, the inconsistent quality of pirates cannot compare to that of trained marines, especially since these are clones that are even stronger than ordinary marines.
