Chapter 89: Not Big
On the Ghost Island in the Country of Peace, in the castle built in a huge skeleton, Kaido gulped down wine with a fierce expression and looked at a short report in his hand.
Jack, Ember, and Quinn were all present and all of them looked a little surprised.
“Is this kid the new General from the marine? Are they so terrible that they needed an unexperienced kid like him?”
“Hahahaha, what’s the meaning of this? Is there no one else after such a kid takes over? Does he really have the power or is he just scaring us?” Kaido sneered disapprovingly. They did not know what was going on and were only guessing now.
Jack and Quinn laughed, and Ember looked at Kaido expressionlessly.
They were puzzled too. This was very sudden for them. It was too sudden.
Why did the Marine do this? Did they do this to scare them?
It was true. This was still said to be used to scare and intimidate everyone.
This was all they could think of. This possibility was very important.
They kept this guess at the back of their minds.
“Governor, being able to be appointed the General No. 5 of the marine implies some capability, otherwise, he would not be able to convince the public. Is this a scheme?”
They all had the same thought. No one was a fool. Everyone was dead.
Moreover, Ember was not as brainless as Jack. He said to Kaido, “I think that this might be a scare tactic. They originally only had four Generals, but now, there are five. I feel that this kid might not have reached that level but was forced to this position. Perhaps he really has a certain level of capability.”
“However, he hasn’t reached the level of a General yet. He should be able to convince the public there, but he’s not as good as a real General. Therefore, it’s reasonable to let this kid take the throne now. We can also deter others in advance. Isn’t there a purpose for promoting this at this time? There must be.”
Kaido did not react much to Ember’s words. Instead, he stopped laughing.
“General No. 5? Why, why are you so cautious about him? Can he kill me? I have to go to the Marine Headquarters to meet him another day. I don’t like this young man. This shows that anyone can become a General.”
Kaido was unconvinced just like General No. 1 in the beginning until Occam defeated him.
As for General No. 3, it ended the moment the match started.
At this time, Kaido laughed arrogantly, his laughter was unconcealed and abnormally arrogant, but there was a solemn look in his eyes. He would not be so careless. After so many years of experience in the marine, he would not give up like this and let a General underestimate him.
He could still talk, but when he really fought, he would definitely be serious.
This was his character. He could look down on one but if they really fought, he would definitely do his best.
Ember had a headache about Kaido’s behavior. It could not be helped. His personality had been so for so many years and had not changed.
They could not stop Kaido from flying to the Marine Headquarters, nor did they even know when he did.
Of course, the other party could not kill Kaido as he was the strongest creature.
The Marines would not be able to kill Kaido as he was the strongest, but who knew how powerful this General was? Now they were only making a pure guess.
Who knew how powerful this General was and if the current Marine General had the ability to completely trap Lord Kaido?
These were all unknowns. They did not know any of this and they were still making guesses.
At the same time, Kaido and his men were in another sea of the Country of Peace.
The ship of Redhead Shanks and the others also received details from the Marine Headquarters on the sea.
A group of others gathered around Shanks. They were all together reading the details of Occam on this brief.
“The marine has another General, General No. 5,” Redhead Shanks said with a grave expression.
This person was different from others. He was very solemn, very serious about everything. He looked at this report seriously.
They would always imagine the worst-case scenario and make guesses. Only by doing so could they have a foolproof plan.
The surrounding people had all kinds of expressions. Some were as grave as Shanks, some were surprised and some were extremely shocked. Everyone roughly understood what was going on.
“General No. 5 is very young. This is very troublesome for us. We can’t guess his power. We can only guess his power when he attacks. At his age now, I don’t think they will let a person without strength take the throne. He has at least the strength of a General.”
“I say, could it be fake intelligence? For example, this General No. 5 was appointed in advance to serve as a deterrence so that others would be wary of them like us? How strong can such a young person be?”
“I don’t think it’s possible. There’s no one like him in their ranks. This person might already have the strength of a General. We have to be careful if we encounter him.”
They all understand that the position of General is extremely important in the Marine. It is unlikely that they will push someone to take the role. Even if there is, at least they have no evidence to prove this. They can only treat him as a real General.
However, they were curious about what kind of ability this young man named Occam had to be able to be appointed as the current General No. 5.
The positions and numbers of these Generals had not changed, but they had now. Not that anyone was dead or retired, but there were more people.
They had always been dubbing the General but they had never succeeded. Could it be that they had succeeded now?
Their minds were filled with questions. They did not understand what was going on.
“Perhaps there’s a mission and they really need people and lack manpower. Are they going to start using this to create rumors about this young man named Occam being a General?”
“That’s possible, but not interesting!”
