I just want to find a job, and then become a Navy Admiral.

Upon hearing Su An's words, Vergo's expression froze for a moment, then he chuckled softly: "I thought you would never talk about work on your day off. I was just in such a hurry about this that I talked to you about it."

Upon hearing this, Su An adjusted her glasses and said, "Logically speaking, that's true, but I also have the right to decide my own private time."

Vergo smiled slightly: "Is that so? The matter of the missing children has been mentioned before. When the children went missing, I sent people to investigate. After the search, it turned out that some families had indeed made a false report because their children were not missing. However, some parents probably couldn't accept this because they saw the children return home."

At this point, Vergo sighed and said with regret, "Just like I told you before, how can any parent accept the news of their child's death? So they just treat it as a lost or abducted child, at least there's some hope."

As he spoke, Vergo looked solemnly towards the sea: "If something had happened to my sister, I would probably think the same way. After all, she's my only family. I think you're still young, Su An. When you become a father in the future, you'll naturally understand the reasons behind this. Besides..."

Vergo turned to Suan: "From my perspective, I shouldn't be saying these things, but you're still young and might not be able to make the right choice. So please hear me out. I understand you're doing this for your parents and your family, but... we can't know what the New World will be like after Kaido's death, so..."

Vergo paused for a moment, then looked troubled. "So I also feel sorry for those families, but if we only care about this, and if those pirates invade those small island towns, even more people will die. I hope you understand."

Looking at Vergo, Su An asked bluntly, "So, you have no evidence to prove that the children were actually shipwrecked, and you only concluded that they were shipwrecked because they can't be found?"

Upon hearing this...

Vergo was taken aback, and subconsciously rubbed his fingers together. He also felt the Den Den Mushi hidden in his pocket move slightly.

But having been a member of the Navy for decades, Vergo looked at Suan and said, "Yes, that's right. I don't have any concrete evidence."

After saying that, Vergo continued, "Because I made a choice. When I first saw the report, I sent many people to investigate, but there was absolutely no news. In this era, pirates are rampant. I couldn't afford to waste extra resources searching for some children. Back then, I..."

Blu-ray Blu-ray Blu-ray~~ Blu-ray Blu-ray Blu-ray~~

Just as Vergo finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi in his arms suddenly rang.

Vergo's words came to an abrupt end. After saying "sorry" to Su An, he answered the Den Den Mushi.

"Brother~~"

As soon as the call connected, a girl's voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

Upon hearing this voice, Vergo looked at Suan and said, "I'm sorry, Suan, she's my sister."

Su An adjusted his glasses. "I'll take my leave now, but I'll continue investigating the child's disappearance. As for what happened after Kaido died..."

"I don't understand why you all act like the world is going to change just because one pirate died, but what I want to say is... the world won't become worse because of one pirate. Whether he dies or not, pirates will still exist, but those parents who lose their children will truly lose everything."

After saying this, Su An bowed to Vergo.

Then he turned around and left.

Watching Su An's retreating figure, Vergo frowned slightly, because Su An's words reminded him of what Su An had said in the cafeteria...

It was he who killed Kaido.

But then he couldn't help but laugh. Could such a thing be possible?

Even though he could clearly sense that Su An was very strong, and that he was definitely not as strong as his opponent.

But he had faced Kaido, that monster, head-on.

He watched Su An walk away.

Vergo also walked towards a more secluded distance: "Young Master."

Immediately, the voice coming from the other end of the Den Den Mushi was not the female voice, but a man's voice: "Kaido... he killed him, Vergo."

The Den Den Mushi's expression also became serious and solemn, along with its voice.

Vergo paused, looking down at the Den Den Mushi.

His expression was full of disbelief and horror.

He even subconsciously looked up at the back of the young man walking towards the foot of the city wall.

Did he kill him?

For no reason.

Vergo recalled what Suan had said in the cafeteria earlier—that he was the one who killed Kaido.

Can...

possible?!

Immediately, Vergo spoke up: "Young Master, he...where did you come from...?"

"Hehehe, scared you, Vergo!" The man on the other end of the Den Den Mushi let out a strange laugh. "When I dug this out of the World Government, I was really shocked! That Kaido, the King of Beasts, just died like that, especially by a Marine who had only recently joined the Navy. How could anyone believe such a thing! But..."

The Den Den Mushi's expression turned somewhat manic. "He killed him! And he didn't even put the Five Elders in his eyes, fufufufu!! I heard the Five Elders were completely humiliated."

Looking at the Den Den Mushi, Vergo had experienced all sorts of situations since he started following the young master, especially after joining the Navy as an undercover agent.

Even when facing the Four Emperors, he had done so.

But my mind was completely unmoved.

But right now...

Vergo stopped and looked back at the young man who had already walked away.

For no apparent reason, a feeling of suffocation swept over Vergo, especially when he thought about how he could kill Su An when they first met.

It's just like how they treated the officers and generals who came to the G5 base in the past.

And including just now...

When Su An pressed him for details, he even considered killing him.

But right now...

Glug~~

Vergo swallowed hard.

"!"

But it was precisely at the moment when Vergo was looking at Suan that...

Su An suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.

Their eyes met.

Vergo felt a jolt in his heart.

He then forced a smile and immediately turned away.

Su An, on the other hand, seemed lost in thought, as if he had forgotten something he hadn't told Vergo.

"This is no joke! Vergo, that marine next to you... is a complete monster, especially... I even saw a picture of Kaido's corpse, fufufufu!!"

The voice on the other end of the Den Den Mushi went completely mad: "Scared out, old buddy! But it's alright, because I was completely scared too. After all, I've thought about the possibility of a Yonko being dismounted, but I never expected Kaido to die in such a way."

Vergo closed his eyes slightly, his face covered in a fine layer of sweat, and said in a low voice, "Yes, I think it's impossible for anyone not to be frightened by something like this, and Su An, he..."

When Vergo got to this point.

The voice on the other end of the Den Den Mushi suddenly seemed to calm down, and said in a low voice, "Although it's just a guess, after hearing what happened between you just now, I think... you've already been..."

But just as the man on the other end of the Den Den Mushi was saying this...

Vergo said, "Yalena, I'm fine here. You just need to rest."

The person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi seemed to understand something and immediately fell silent.

Vergo turned to look at Suan, who was walking quickly toward him.

I don't know why...

Vergo is very nervous!
