Kuro glanced at the fruit, waved his hand and said: "Okay, no one will eat it anyway, so I'll give it to you. I hope you will continue to work hard in the future."
What he chose was the 'double fruit', which he had just obtained.
None of his own subordinates or subordinates' subordinates would eat this fruit, and since Wilbur was basically stationed in Shampoo, it was appropriate to give it to him.
If used for defense, this fruit is also good.
The power of the cannonball is increased ten times, which is not small.
"Thank you Major General Kuro!"
Wilbur's face straightened, he took a deep breath, looked at the fruit, and thought a lot.
The more days he communicated with Cass, the more details he learned about Kuro.
When Cass ate the fruit back then, he did so with great courage. After all, the devil lived in the devil fruit.
As a man at sea, for this power, he has to be insulated from the sea, which is unbearable for most people.
but
Just like Cass, in order to help Major General Clow and to spread the justice taught by Major General Clow!
Even if you become a landlubber, you won't be able to go to the sea even if you live forever!
It's all worth it!
"Cass, with you first, I, Wilbur, will not be afraid!"
Wilbur roared crazily in his heart, took the fruit, stuffed it into his mouth hard, and swallowed the whole fruit in just one mouthful.
It seems that most people in this world know the skill of Maru Tun.
I don’t know if it’s talent.
"Good guy."
After swallowing it directly, Kuro grinned, another man who had learned the correct way to eat Devil Fruit.
Take a bite, just in case the effect is not enough.
If you eat too much, the taste will be really unpleasant. Kuro has personal experience with this.
But if you swallow it as a pill, the taste will not be that strong, because you swallow it whole, and you can only experience the taste for a moment without even chewing.
"Major General Kuro!"
After swallowing the fruit, Wilbur's face turned green and white. His body swayed for a while, and then he stood up again, staring at Kuro with a burning gaze, "I will definitely make good use of this power!"
"Oh, come on."
Qrow nodded, "Do a good job, I'm very optimistic about you, you are much better than Cass."
"Cass."
Wilbur looked excited, "Am I better than Cass in some aspects?!"
"Yes, in some aspects, you are much better than Cass."
Crowley doesn't deny this.
Wilbur made people worry-free. Cass's hot-blooded bearded man didn't make people worry-free, but made people lose their hearts.
"I know, I will work hard!" Wilbur clenched his fists.
Not only was he recognized by Major General Cullo, but he was also said by Major General Cullo to be better than Cass in some aspects.
That's Cass!
The man he admires most!
Or. I can really fulfill my long-cherished wish and become the spear of Major General Clow!
"Major General Clow. No, can I call you Mr. Clow?" Wilbur asked expectantly.
"Um?"
Qrow raised his eyebrows, "It's not impossible."
"Thank you Mr. Kuro!!"
Wilbur saluted fiercely, "I will definitely live up to your expectations!!"
As he spoke, he almost shed tears.
"Stop, stop, stop, why are you crying? Forget it, come on, if you have nothing to do, go and get busy." Kuro waved his hand with a headache.
Why is this guy as excited as that idiot Cass?
"yes!"
Wilbur saluted again, took three steps at a time and ran out.
He wanted to share the good news with Cass and tell Cass that he had also been recognized by Mr. Clow.
When the time comes, they can cooperate and contribute to a just cause together!
Thinking like this, he touched the "Quotes of Justice" that had been close to his chest, and felt his chest was hot, and his whole body was filled with blood.
"Cass has dedicated his life to the justice taught by Mr. Clow. Then, I will let the world know Mr. Clow's concept of justice and Mr. Clow's noble sentiments! I will also devote my life to Mr. Clow!
!!" He thought silently in his heart.
"Ah sneeze!"
In the office, Kuro sneezed again and felt a little chilly for no reason.
He rubbed his nose and wondered: "Why do you keep sneezing recently?"
He leaned back on the chair and changed into a more comfortable position, just like a paralyzed fish, closing his eyes and concentrating.
…
Four months later.
Time passed in Kuro's paralyzed posture every day.
Wilbur would come to report on the situation in Shampoo Land almost every once in a while, urging Clow to go back and report on his work.
But this was ignored by him.
As long as he pretends that he can't hear the work report, it won't matter.
Anyway, he has an old man above him, so he is not afraid of this.
But recently, it seems to be no longer possible.
"Hey, Kuro, it's said that the completion ceremony of the new headquarters is going to be held, won't you go?"
In the office, Lida said with some anticipation: "I wonder how the canteen in the new headquarters tastes."
The new headquarters was officially completed two months ago, but the ceremony was held recently.
This, Kuro must go.
Because some time ago Wilbur came again to urge him, and brought instructions from Marshal Sakaski, telling him to go back to attend the ceremony.
Kuro bit his cigar, nodded, and said: "This has to go, Sakaski's face must be given."
To be honest, he was a little worried before, fearing that due to the Wald incident, a promotion document would come one day.
But it's been four months and he still hasn't received news of his promotion, which means his attempt to shirk the blame has been successful.
This made him let down his guard a lot.
Moreover, this time it was not a debriefing, but a ceremony for the whole navy. People from each station were selected to participate, and the others watched Sakaski's speech on the phone video.
This face must be given.
After all, he is the marshal.
"You call Crowe and ask him to prepare. Notify Marigio and ask them to prepare the ships and passages. You two will follow me, and the others will stay at home to guard the house." Qrow said.
If they want to go to the New World, they can only go through Mary Joan.
Otherwise, would you let him go to Fish-Man Island?
He is a navy man, so he can go to Fish-Man Island properly.
Moreover, that place was already covered by Charlotte Lingling, and Jinbei also had some problems with him.
Besides, Kuro is still resistant to going into the sea.
If there was an accident, he would be buried directly under the sea.
"Okay~"
Lida responded, took out the phone she carried with her, and suddenly asked: "By the way, do you want to call Cass?"
"Huh? As for him, you can go if you want. Although he is my subordinate, he is also the base commander of Pegasus Island, and the choice is in his hands." Kuro said.
"I see."
Lida nodded, then called Crowe, informed him of Crowe's decision, and then hung up the phone.
"That's right, Kuro"
Lida looked at him and said: "The bar at 13GR is a little different recently. I feel a strong atmosphere."
"that"
Kuro looked through the window in the direction of 13GR.
"Don't worry about it. If the old man doesn't cause trouble, just pretend he doesn't know."
