One Piece: God Killer

Chapter 182 Justice in the Heart

The dragon who finally defeated Blazing Sun didn't have much time to experience the joy of defeating a powerful enemy.

"There is not much time left, we must free as many slaves as possible..." Long looked around, and he could hear shouts of killing not far away.

Obviously, after the initial shock and bewilderment, the World Government has recovered from the chaos of Mariejoia's attack and began to organize manpower to prepare for a counterattack.

This operation to free the slaves should be coming to an end.

Long quickly made a judgment. Although their actions seemed to be going very smoothly, it did not mean that they would be able to confront the World Government head-on. Once the world government mobilizes enough power, this operation will easily be in danger.

It's time to evacuate.

But at this moment, a voice came from the flames.

"Long, you kid has committed a terrible crime..."

A figure as tall as a mountain and as strong as an ox came from the flames. Although he was old, his aura and the sense of oppression he exuded were even far above the blazing sun.

"Marshal Kong..." Seeing the person coming, Long subconsciously took a step back. The habits he developed in the navy were still in effect. Facing his "old superiors", he still had a subconscious sense of awe and obedience.

Facing his former capable subordinate, Kong clenched his fists and asked angrily and disappointedly: "Do you know what on earth you are doing?"

To this day, Sora still can't forget the Navy's expectations for Dragon. At that time, all the top brass in the Navy, including himself, believed that Dragon, the son of a hero, was the hope for the future of the Navy, and even regarded him as the best choice for the Navy Headquarters General after the Sora and Warring States Period.

Later, Long left without saying goodbye, betrayed the navy, and established the so-called "Volunteer Army." In recent years, it has developed into a revolutionary army and has overthrown the regimes of several countries.

But I didn't expect that it would be like this when we met again. He was very disappointed with Long's choice, and at the same time he was puzzled - how could a young man who clearly had a bright future in the navy stand on the opposite side of justice?

"Stop it, for Garp's sake, I will give you a decent treatment."

"Marshal Kong..." At this time, Long showed no fear, "This Mary Joa's fire is my greatest dignity!"

Facing his former boss, he didn't try to say more, let alone try to win over him. Although the Revolutionary Army is not opposed to the Navy, or even completely opposed to the World Government, at least under the current circumstances, their conflict with the Navy cannot be reconciled.

"The justice of the Navy is shamed because of you!" Kong's muscles tensed.

"Justice is not just something you talk about!" Long, at least on his words, had no intention of retreating.

The dark armed domineering energy covered the body, the steel frame shot out in the air, and he shook his fist in anger.

"Today, I want to clear the door for the Navy!"

Long did not confront Cyborg Kong head-on. He turned into a breeze and fled away from Mary Joa.

"Old man, I am not your soldier now!"

……

"why why!"

Some slaves collapsed to the ground in despair, the sparkle in their eyes extinguished, and there was no longer any yearning for freedom, only complete despair.

"How could this happen! It's obviously only one step away!"

Someone knelt on the ground, pounding the ground with clenched fists, and tears of pain and reluctance flowed down the corners of their eyes.

"It's over, it's all over!"

Facing the hot magma, some people were like zombies, completely unaware of how to dodge. Even if there is no hope of escape, he is unwilling to return to a hellish life. Compared to returning to Mariejoia, being swallowed by magma may be a better outcome.

Facing the sudden appearance of Sakaski, the morale of the slaves completely collapsed in an instant. No one had even the slightest chance of taking any chances. The man in front of him named Sakaski was a candidate for admiral known as the "Monster" in the Navy Headquarters. He was one of the monsters standing on the top of the sea.

It is extremely ironic that the navy, as the guardian of this chaotic sea, should have been the patron saint of the people, bringing hope and security to people. But at this time, the appearance of the navy brought despair.

"Navy, oh, navy!"

Some slaves shouted hysterically, "You damn guys, when we needed protection, you were not there, but when we were about to be free, you came out to stop us... You guys are really rotten!" "

"Sakaski, isn't the justice behind you ashamed?"

The angry shouts of the slaves were deafening, conveying endless resentment and anger, and full of the deepest despair after everything was taken away.

"hateful!"

Many marines following Sakaski had distorted expressions and their bodies could not help but tremble.

Many navies are still young and flying out on such a mission for the first time. The hellish scene in front of them, the slaves' miserable condition and the despair and shouting from the bottom of their hearts shocked their hearts violently.

In the era of great pirates, young people who joined the navy often had a strong sense of mission and pride in their hearts. They were proud to be defenders of justice and protectors of civilians, and they expected to one day wipe out all evil in the world. This is the proudest emotion among the young navy people.

But what's going on now?

Isn’t the navy just? Isn’t the navy the defender of world order?

Why would these people in front of me say such things? Why do they show such expressions of fear and despair?

There must be a mistake somewhere, right? !

Each soldier will look at Sakaski standing at the front with doubts, expectations, and puzzlement. Although he is speechless, he is clearly waiting for an answer.

But Sakaski, Sakaski just stood there silently, silently looking at the desperate slaves in front of him, silently sensing the voices of the soldiers behind him.

"Come on, kill me!"

A slave made up his mind. He stood up, clasped the long knife in his hand, and assumed a charging posture. The corners of his mouth were curved, and his eyes were full of determination, and he walked towards Sakaski step by step.

More and more slaves followed him, approaching Sakaski step by step.

"Come on, Navy! Kill us!"

"Come on, let's protect the face of the Celestial Dragons!"

"Come and practice that disgusting justice!"

"Come on, come and take everything from us!"

Without the slightest fear, without the slightest cowardice, without the slightest hesitation, facing the top combat power in this sea, those skinny and ragged slaves were full of perseverance and determination.

"Come on, Sakaski!"

"At least let me die on the way to pursue freedom!"

"Why……?"

A marine couldn't help but murmur to himself. He had just joined Sakaski's command not long ago, and today was his first time to go to sea to perform a formal mission.

At this time, his expression was distorted, the veins in the hand holding the handle of the knife were exposed, his whole body was shaking, his face was red, and his eyes were bloodshot.

The scene before him gave him a huge shock, and he could not understand what happened.

Why? He is obviously an ordinary person, he is obviously an ordinary person who has no power to bind a chicken, and he is obviously an ordinary person with less than ten Taoist powers.

But why does an ordinary person have such fearless courage? Why does an ordinary person dare to roar in front of a vice-admiral of the navy? Why do these skinny guys dare to confront the most elite navy?

What makes them not even afraid of death?

What made Lieutenant General Sakaski say nothing?

Finally, amidst this terrible roar and silence, this naval soldier could no longer hold the long knife tightly in his hand.

"Ding Dong!"

The originally abundant physical strength was drained away in an instant, and the young navy soldier's eyes were no longer firm. Confusion, unprecedented confusion appeared in his eyes for the first time.

"It shouldn't be..."

He is a marine! They are the army that maintains peace and justice in this sea! But why would the Navy do such a thing?

He suddenly understood everything. These people, these people who yearned for freedom, were slaves of the Tianlong people. They are clearly poor people who have been wantonly deprived of everything by those who claim to be gods. They are clearly the ones the navy should protect!

No, this mission is different from what he imagined. What the navy should do is fight with those vicious criminals, rather than suppress these poor slaves!

These people who pursue freedom should not be treated as enemies of justice!

Is this justice for the Navy?

Or, is what the Navy upholds really justice?

The young navy had a strong feeling of having his faith shattered.

Sakaski turned around, clenched his right fist, his face was livid, and large chunks of magma dripped from his hand. Slowly but without hesitation he walked up to the young marine.

"Sa, Sa, Lieutenant General Sakaski..."

The soldiers' eyes were focused on this iron-blooded lieutenant general who had always been decisive in killing.

Everyone is waiting for Sakaski's action.

"You idiot, stand up straight!"

The Vice Admiral, who had remained eerily silent since entering Mariejoia, finally spoke.

The deep, hoarse, rich male voice that seemed to contain endless anger was like thunder. The young navy trembled all over, subconsciously stood up straight and looked at the tall figure in front of him.

To everyone's surprise, under the uneasy gaze of the young navy, Sakaski bent down to pick up the saber that fell on the ground with a straight face.

"Hold him tight! What do you think this is?"

"No, I'm very sorry, Lieutenant General Sakaski!"

The young navy tightened his grip on his saber nervously and with some fear, but his body began to tremble unconsciously.

He had more or less heard some rumors about Admiral Sakaski. After all, as one of several "general candidates" almost designated by the Navy Headquarters as the new admiral, Sakaski has always been the focus of public opinion.

Sakaski's reputation among soldiers and even the entire Navy headquarters is extremely polarizing. His admirers believe that only by following such an iron-blooded lieutenant in the era of great pirates can peace and tranquility be brought to the sea, and his Those who oppose this door insist that Sakaski's too extreme justice can only bring worse results!

Although few people dare to criticize this unapproachable general to his face, there are always rumors behind him that he is ruthless, cruel and easy to kill, and will not hesitate to severely punish his subordinates who disobey orders.

It is said that any pirate who meets Sakaski, no matter what his style, will never survive. This is because they stand on the opposite side of justice; it is said that during the execution of his mission, Sakaski killed countless civilians. Several, because they hindered the execution of justice; even a large number of navy died in his hands, because their justice was shaken.

And one thing is a fact recognized by Sakaski's fans and critics: under Sakaski, anyone who violates military orders will never end well!

Facing such a man, the young navy fell into deep fear.

"Hold your weapons, idiots!"

Sakaski spoke in a low tone and glanced at the surrounding navy with firm eyes: "Don't let justice be shamed!"

"But, but!" The young navy man got a courage from nowhere and said loudly, "But, Lieutenant General Sakaski, these people, these people!"

He waved his hands towards the slaves, with tears streaming down his face, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "But they are just slaves pursuing 'freedom', are they also enemies of justice?"

Sakaski took a step forward, and the rolling magma on his right arm emitted a dazzling white light. This representative of the Navy's radical faction, the future general of the Navy Headquarters, and the Marshal were locked in a tight jaws, and the military cap was low, making it impossible for everyone to see clearly. his face.

"Justice, stop joking!"

The Vice Admiral roared like a new recruit.

At this moment, he remembered the life-and-death fight with pirates when he was young, the excitement when he joined the navy, Zefa's earnest teachings in the naval training camp, the scene when he performed his first mission, and every day. During a battle with pirates, I thought of those comrades who sacrificed their lives on the sea, and of the gifts given by Profik...

There was endless anger in Sakaski's tone:

"Justice is not such a cheap thing!"

"What we do has nothing to do with justice!"

"The Navy is just wiping the butt of a bunch of trash!"

"Mr. Sakaski..." At this moment, the young navy had an illusion - even though one was a vice admiral and the other was just a recruit, at this moment he and Sakaski seemed to have the same fate.

"Young man, I can feel your anger," Sakaski turned around, "But I am the one who is even more angry!"

"Big fire!"

The giant fist of magma that swallowed everything blasted forward like a catharsis.

"One day, I will achieve true justice!"

The next moment, red domineering energy burst out, surrounding Sakaski.
