"Oh, it's you..."
Kuro said, "It's been a while. You were transferred from headquarters? A lateral transfer? Who did you offend?"
From Marineford to Chambord?
Although the distance is very close, the comfort level is incomparable. Although Marineford is no longer the headquarters, it is still G-1. Isn't it better to be a naval officer there than in this wretched place?
Marineford won't be hit by pirates, but Sabaody... pirates are like leeks, you can harvest one wave and they'll grow back. You also have to deal with the Celestial Dragons, and you can't offend the rich. In such a godforsaken place, which Marine would dare to come here?
"Well, hehehe... Headquarters has its own arrangements."
Wilbur gave an awkward smile; he didn't dare say that he had requested the application himself.
Although he admired Kuro, he couldn't say it, lest Kuro think he was deliberately trying to get close to him.
"Never mind, you're here. You're still pretty good, much better than some of my subordinates."
Kuro waved his hand. "In that case, you'll be in charge of things inside the naval base."
Under him, the only ones who have reached the school level and are capable are Chloe and Cass. He certainly wouldn't dare to keep that hot-blooded idiot Cass around; it's better for him to stay on Pegasus Island.
So, the only one who got busy was Clooney. Besides acting as his own adjutant, filtering intelligence and communicating with his superiors, he also had to take full responsibility for everything within the Sabaody Naval Base, including all naval affairs such as external security.
Although he is now in a close relationship with the people every day, this is his only solace. If he is pushed too hard, Kuro feels that he will be busy to death.
Wilbur's arrival is just in time.
This guy is sensible and quick-witted. Kuro is quite at ease giving him some power.
"yes!!"
Wilbur responded loudly and became excited when he heard Kuro say that.
Am I given such a heavy responsibility as soon as I arrive?
Major General Kuro really does appreciate me!
This is absolutely... absolutely amazing!!!
Wilbur was quite busy during this time. Because he idolized his idol so much, he collected information about Major General Kuro's resume, including that of his subordinates.
Flo Rita is a powerful martial arts prodigy who maintains a small body size most of the time, but transforms into a berserk form during battle. She is a capable subordinate of Major General Clow Reed.
Kuro, I used to hear he was a pirate... but that's irrelevant now. The current Kuro is Rear Admiral Clow's right-hand man, a strategist who can stabilize the country, and he is meticulous in everything he does, even more so than a butler.
There's also Douglas Cass, who shone brightly in the Marineford War. I heard that he was just an ordinary Marine back then, and it was only because he followed Rear Admiral Kuro that he achieved what he has today. Now he's the base commander who manages Pegasus Island all by himself.
As for his subordinates, Wilbur's focus wasn't on them; he was a colonel, and comparisons were made with his direct subordinates.
Kuro has his right-hand men and his shield, but there's still one thing he's missing.
"I will become the spearhead in front of Major General Kuro, clearing away all obstacles for him!" Wilbur vowed silently in his heart.
