Ignite the fire from the pirates

Shanks and Beckman looked at each other, put down the things in their hands, and patted Jesus's shoulders.

Kevin asked, "You must be aware that a two-year-old child has no father and his mother is not in good health. What will the future of this family be like after you leave?"

"I raised the child with great difficulty, but my wife eventually died of illness after long-term fatigue and pain. The child, without parents, began to wander around the village, with no one to rely on and no food to eat. He was hated by the villagers for trying to attract attention."

"But he does idolize his father and even goes out to sea to become a pirate. But this kind of life, this cycle repeats itself..."

Before he finished speaking, Jesus raised his head and said happily, "This kind of life won't be boring, right? Compared to living a life of mediocrity in the village, a man should go out to sea when he hears the pirate flag calling, right?"

Uh……

What's the reason?

Kevin was truly speechless.

Pirate flag summon? The ship spirit does exist, but the pirate flag spirit does not really exist!

Just for the thrill?

Outrageous!

Why don’t you say the sea is calling you?

"No reason can stop a man who hears the call of the sea from going out to sea."

Jesus Bu looked a little excited: "If you risk your life to become a pirate for your dream, you will be the freest person in this ocean!"

Kevin glanced at the guy.

"Freedom? From what I know, 99% of the pirates on this sea are different from you. They commit murder, looting and commit all kinds of evil. Many of them have died in my hands."

"If this is what you mean by freedom, then I can tell you very clearly that freedom without following the rules has no good meaning."

At this time, Shanks said: "Every era has its own meaning. If pirates become a thing of the past in the future, perhaps the formation of freedom and dreams will become something else, right?"

Compared to Jesus Bu, Shanks' words seem to hit the nail on the head.

Kevin looked at him and let him continue.

And Shanks also understood that the Revolutionary Army valued ideas more.

And ideas are precisely what the world government fears the most.

"As you just said, 99% of the pirates on this ocean are evil, and that's what they understand as pirates. But the pirates we think of are not like that."

“I went to sea for my dream, for the adventure, and to see all the different landscapes and cultures in this world.”

"The Red Earth Continent and the Calm Belt isolate the world from all four corners of the world. Communication and interaction are almost non-existent. This is the limitation of the times."

Shanks continued, "If a chef wants to experience the cuisine and different ingredients of the Four Seas and the Grand Line, he can only go out to sea and become a pirate."

“A musician also has no choice but to go out to sea in order to hear music formed by different cultures.”

"One day in the future, if all the barriers of this sea are broken, cultural exchanges will be facilitated and people will be able to communicate with each other easily. In that era, pirates will be a thing of the past."

Shanks suggested to Kevin, "Mr. Tom is building a new marine transportation tool in the Seven Waters City of the Grand Line. You may want to go and have a look after it succeeds. That is also the future."

……

The late-night party is still going on, but the atmosphere is much better now.

Shanks was drunk and took Kevin into his arms to join the party. Beckman and Jesus were drinking together, with Lakilu acting as the referee.

The party was taking on the look of a party, and Shanks obviously had no intention of continuing to ask questions.

The other party knew his background, but because of the saying that a baby is no less sinner than this, even if he knew that Captain Roger's son was in the East China Sea, the cloaked man would not do anything.

The Revolutionary Army...

With this basic idea in mind, the weight of the world has also increased.

……

At five o'clock in the morning, the Red Hair Pirates' banquet finally ended.

The pirates lying in the woods after the banquet were completely defenseless.

But the only few sober people were Beckman and Jesus who had just had a drinking contest, and Lakilu who also drank a lot.

By now Kevin had already left, and flew directly back to the G5 branch on the Thunder God.

"This ability is really convenient, but I don't know if there is any distance limit."

Jesus Bu also knew the identity of the cloaked man, and his words were a little sour.

Shanks burped and said, "Anyway, it should be beyond the distance between islands. If we can cross the Calm Belt and the Red Earth Continent, it will be really convenient."

Beckman looked at Shanks and asked, "Do you want to stay on this island?"

Shanks thought about it, then smiled and said, "We will start heading to the Grand Line tomorrow and go directly to the New World!"

Beckman also laughed.

Although the whole team was almost wiped out, the accidental encounter with the cloaked man made the captain feel truly oppressed, which was a good thing.

There is no need to go to Dawn Island. Only when you become stronger can you have the confidence to speak.

In the previous confrontation with the cloaked man, it can be said that he completely disregarded life and death.

"Boss, didn't you say we need to go to Dawn Island again?" Jesus Bu was puzzled.

Shanks replied, "No, we're leaving from the East China Sea and starting our adventure on the Grand Line. Jesus needs to work hard, because the pirates on the Grand Line are different from those on the East China Sea."

"And the growth of domineering requires fighting, constant fighting power. I believe that one day you will be able to foresee the future."

Jesus swallowed and said, "I will. By that time, my son will worship me even more."

……

The next day, the Red Hair Pirates left Shimotsuki Village and began their adventure on the Grand Line.

At this time, Kevin also saw the report about the Seven Warlords of the Sea in the newspaper in the G5 branch.

You can’t really say you saw it, because after the shadow clone was released, all the memories from the previous day appeared in your mind.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea...are about to be formed."

After thinking for a long time, Kevin slapped the desk.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the desk was broken and even the whole office shook.

"asshole!"

"Legal plundering pirates? So these bastards can do whatever they want?!"

……

Chapter 149 Zhan Guo wants to retire

"Didn't you see yesterday's newspaper, Mr. Lieutenant General?"

"I think I saw it this morning. The entire table in the base commander's office was smashed to pieces."

"If it was the Vice Admiral, it would be understandable that he would be so angry. After all, the Vice Admiral hates pirates the most."

"Don't you hate it?"

"According to Mr. Lieutenant General, those bastards are the troublemakers in this ocean!"

"So we are...shit?"

At the training ground of the G5 branch, the sailors of the 03 unit were startled by the sudden loud noise, and after hearing the curses coming from the window, they began to discuss in low voices.

However, in the current G5 branch, nearly % of the navy are the Revolutionary Army, and most of the islands under its jurisdiction have become bases for the Revolutionary Army to lurk.

The other 30% are also feeling disgusted by what was reported in yesterday's newspapers.

Next to the training ground, Smoker, who had also finished his daily training, glanced at the base commander's office upstairs: "The situation at the headquarters should be similar. Teacher Zephyr should be very angry."

Tina frowned: "Being angry and furious is useless. The navy can only obey the orders issued by the World Government. Even Marshal Sengoku can't make the higher-ups change the implementation of this system."

Smoker glanced at her and said, "You are getting calmer now. In the past... you seemed to be much calmer than me."

"Not calm down, Smoker."

Tina continued, "In comparison, you and I are not as knowledgeable and wise as Vice Admiral Crane and Marshal Sengoku. Even we know the real root of the problem in this sea, how could they not know?"

After that, Smoker fell silent.

It has been nearly two years since he followed the lieutenant general from the headquarters to the G5 branch. He has seen much more than he did in the headquarters.

The naval branches in the four seas have simple powers. Although due to distance and communication reasons, there is a possibility that the base commander will become dominant and cause trouble to one side, compared to here in the New World.

There is a huge difference between sin and darkness.

In the past two years, the Navy has once again established another branch in the New World.

But just like the original G5, those navies should perhaps be called pirates.

Because they will...plunder non-member countries.

There are countless islands in the entire ocean, and many of them can be called countries, but there are only a few hundred countries that can afford to pay the sky-high gold.

This number changes every year. Some people withdraw because they cannot afford to pay, while others join because they are able to hand over the money after slaughtering the population.

But for those who cannot afford to pay and withdraw, there is a 50% chance that their country will be destroyed later, either by being plundered by neighboring countries or by pirates or the navy.

Yes, the navy can also plunder non-member countries.

For countries whose population has plummeted after the massacre and whose labor force has declined, they are left with only two options: either rob others or become a non-member country and be robbed by others after being unable to pay.

The cycle repeats itself, causing suffering and despair to recur. Only in places as large as Dressrosa or Alabasta in the middle of the Grand Line, where the king is still a human being, can one survive.

In the past two years in the new world, Smoker and Tina have truly seen the darkness of this world.

"Yeah, they do."

Smoker sighed, then took out a cigar and lit it. "So sometimes I wish I could be simpler. After all, I'm just a navy minion, so I just need to do the navy's classified work, right?"

Tina glanced at him and said, "Do you want to be as righteous as Vice Admiral Garp? You are just deceiving yourself."

After saying that, Tina turned and went towards the base commander's office.

As far as she could remember, the Lieutenant General had never been so angry.

Even when he first came to the G5 branch and slaughtered batch after batch of the remaining naval forces here, Marshal Sengoku from the headquarters personally called to reprimand him, but he was still pushed back by the Lieutenant Admiral.

Mr. Lieutenant General, there is little sign of table-banging.

……

Base Chief's Office.

When Kevin saw Tina coming in, he said directly: "Prepare the warships, let's go back to the headquarters!"

These words made Tina stunned for a moment, but when she saw Kevin's eyes turned red and his hands clenched with green energy, she immediately understood.

As the fourth marine in the youth training camp to be awarded the title of monster, Kevin became a vice admiral of the Marine Headquarters and the base commander of the New World G5 branch when he was only in his twenties. His past was also well-known in the Navy.

Born in the West Sea, his family and the village he lived in were destroyed by pirates. Only the Vice Admiral survived among the dead.

After wandering and begging, he eventually joined the navy in the town of Rathgap, and thus began the origin of the name West Sea Executioner.

Because of his experience of wandering in his childhood, he did whatever it takes to climb up, obeyed the orders of the World Government, and even stated bluntly that he was a dog of Marijoa during his youth training camp.

But also because of his background, he has been ruthless to pirates since the West Sea. Even if the fruit ability users should be sent to Impel Down according to the rules, he will still kill them without hesitation.

So... in the end, hatred for pirates overwhelms loyalty to the World Government?

"Mr. Lieutenant General."

"Ah."

When going to the port of G5 branch, Tina followed Kevin all the way, and at this time she seemed to have made up her mind: "Tina wants to go back with you."

Kevin shook his head slightly and said, "Your current rank is only major in this unit, so you won't be of much use if you go back."

Soon the two men were under the ship, and the navy on the ship was ready to sail.

Tina stopped and looked at Kevin: "But if Vice Admiral goes back, it won't be of much use, right? The orders of the World Government cannot be changed even by the Navy Headquarters. Didn't Vice Admiral say that during the Youth Training Camp?"

"Ah……"

Kevin grinned and gave a dry laugh. He hadn't drunk any water for a long time because of this image. Fortunately, the sun was very strong in the G5 branch today.
