In fact, Sakasugi’s failure does not have much impact on the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars). The ones who have objections are the participating countries. The World Conference is the stage for these participating countries to perform, especially the newly ascended Conqueror, Wang Dawei. When he heard the news of changing the Marshal, he was very excited. He is the big shot of the Golden Sky, and he is very strong, and he was personally chosen by Kuro. Of course, he wants Kuro to take that position.

Joining countries are very important to the World Government because they are the main body that pays taxes. The funds for naval activities and the gold in the sky are all collected by money.

The Marine Expedition that began two years ago also made the signatories pay a lot of money. Now that the war is in a stalemate and there is a problem with their base, the signatories will certainly be anxious.

Once overthrown, they won’t even pay the money. If they don’t pay the money, how can they maintain the activities of the Marine, how can they pay the gold in the sky!

Therefore, the opinion of the World Government’s affiliated countries is of course important. Otherwise, there would not be a World Conference once every four years. In the conference, they will decide the movement of this world. Even the selection of Marine Marshal was chosen by them before. Although it cannot be completely decided, there is still a dispute.

Now that they belong to Kuro and Sakasugi has been defeated, this matter is reasonable.

As for what they were concerned about, it was still Shirahoshi.

The Sea King Poseidon is a mermaid princess, which is something they did not expect. They originally thought that it was really a weapon, but now it seems that it is not as simple as a weapon.

Once it is successfully controlled by the pirates, the sea will really be finished.

We must quickly resolve the war before this happens, the best is to be able to resolve the parties involved!

“Go and prepare, it will be your inauguration ceremony soon.” The long-bearded old man said.

Kuro took a deep breath. “We can discuss it. Sakasugi can’t retreat, but I will solve the war quickly. Whether it’s Straw Hat or Tiki, let’s solve it in one go.”

The curly-haired old man said lightly, “This is what you should do. Well, there is no dispute about this matter. I understand your difficulties, but this is an order. That’s it. Stand down.”

Kuro saw that these old men were no longer looking at him and knew that there was no room for discussion. After a moment of silence, he turned around and left.

It was not until Kuro disappeared that the old men looked at each other again.

“Why do you not want to be a Marshal…” The red-skinned old man murmured.

“Because he doesn’t want to be criticized. This guy cherishes his feathers more than us.” The long-bearded old man said, “Sakaski was injured and defeated. He ran back and forth like this and became a Marshal. Of course, he will leave a bad impression on others.”

“But this is our decision. He will handle it himself. In contrast, I am looking forward to how he will solve this war quickly.” The curly-haired old man said.

“Poseidon… has he appeared?”

The map elder sighed. “The balance of the world has long been gone. These ‘fire sources’ that put the world in flames are burning more and more fiercely. Extinguish the fire, this is our main work.”

… .

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

After coming out from between the powers, Kuro gritted his teeth and cursed as he walked.

He was here to question what was going on with the newspaper, but in the end, he was appointed as some Marshal…

Sakasugi has only been a Marshal for a few years!

Ah? He changed it just like that?!

I already said no, I don’t care if they can take it or not…

Kuro sulked and walked forward.

“Huh? Why are you here?”

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

Kuro turned around and saw Lowe at that end.

“I say, you’re a Marine, why do you go to Mariejois every day? You are a Admiral, not a Marshal, right?” Lowe asked curiously.

He was really curious. No matter what his hidden identity was, he was just a general on the surface and not a Marine Marshal. How could he enter and leave Mary Joa freely as if this was his home?

“None of your business!”

Kuro said angrily, “If you have nothing to do, go and think about how to have a meaningful meeting, such as joining other people to decide not to replace Marine Marshal!”

“Oh? You know it…”

Lowe was stunned for a moment and chuckled. “When this matter was proposed, I supported it. It’s better for you to be a Marshal than someone you don’t know. Everyone trusts you, and this is also good for the future.”

Kuro was stunned for a moment and frowned. “You are also involved? Who else?”

“Master!!”

Before he could confirm, a sincere and excited voice came from behind Lowe, “Master, you are here!”

That was David.

“I told you not to call him Master… Wait, you don’t have a share, do you?” Kuro’s eyes were unfriendly.

“What?” David still didn’t understand.

“Are you involved in the Marshal’s proposal?” Kuro asked.

“I’m not involved.”

These words made Kuro heave a sigh of relief, and then Lowe said something that made Kuro’s breath not completely relieved and stuck there.

“He is the main sponsor,” Lowe said.

“You, you…”

Kuro stretched out his trembling index finger and pointed at them, not saying a word for a long time.

“Are you surprised?” Lowe bared his white teeth. “Hey, this is a Marshal. Remember to get my sister a General Substitute. I don’t expect a General, and I don’t estimate her strength. Besides, a little girl as a General has to fight and kill. It’s not as comfortable as a General Substitute.”

“I’m surprised you… F*ck!”

Kuro held back his vulgarities and the veins on his forehead were exposed. “What the hell do you want to do! It’s fine if you usually cause trouble for the countries near you, but why do you want to mess with me! I don’t want to be the Marshal, let me be the Marshal…”

He pointed up angrily at the top of the stairs in front of him, at the throne protected by countless swords. “You might as well carry me up there!”

The place where he is now happens to be the symbol of the World Government, the Void Throne Hall where countless swords and sword wills are in countless alliances and there is no one on the throne.

“Just nice, that thing doesn’t seem to have many people sitting on it. You are so capable, let me sit on it! What the hell!”

Kuro bared his teeth at the two of them and ignored them. He directly knocked Lowe away and walked out.

“What is this person’s situation?”

Lowe frowned and stared at the distant Kuro. “It’s not good to be a Marshal. Isn’t this one step closer to the goal?”

“That’s only one step closer, not one step…”

David stared at the Void Throne thoughtfully and said, “Did you hear what Master said? He said that this seat… seems empty.”

These words shocked Lowe and he subconsciously looked over. He thought of something and cold sweat flowed down his forehead. “Hey, this is not a joke. If someone sits in this seat, it will be very scary.”

“That’s not the point. The theory we study tells us that we should never think of things too simply. It doesn’t matter if there is someone in this position. Our plan is still going on. The most important thing is…”

David said in a deep voice, “Master, he is already very impatient.”
