"Sorry, we can't join your forces."

Nami said firmly that neither Luffy's dream of becoming the Pirate King nor his companions' dream would allow them to join other forces.

"In that case, I won't force you, but you have to change the name of your pirate group."

Bai An suddenly said something that puzzled everyone, but he quickly gave an explanation.

"In a few days, the situation on the sea will undergo a major change. Next, I will take control of the navy, and then eliminate the Four Emperors and all the forces under their control. The entire sea will be reshuffled."

Bai An's casual narration made everyone's expression change drastically.

"Unify the world?"

Usopp swallowed and asked, this is too exaggerated!

"That's about right. I won't stop you from going out to sea when the time comes, but people like you will have to call yourself adventurers."

Bai An shrugged and said, which made Nami and the others feel a little relieved.

No matter what, at least they can still sail, the Straw Hat Pirates will not disband, and they can still pursue their dreams together.

As for what the other party said about unifying the world, they did not doubt it. After all, the other party had the strength to do so.

Chapter 51 Peach Rabbit, Oscar White

After leaving some food for the Straw Hat Pirates, Bai An came to the Marine Headquarters. Motoko Hei did not walk with him, but hid in the dark.

As soon as he stepped into the Navy Headquarters, Bai An met an acquaintance.

"Hey~ Isn't this Gion? We just finished training. Are you going to eat? Take me with you."

Looking at the figure walking out from the corner ahead, Bai An greeted with a smile.

Hearing this familiar voice, Taotu was stunned at first, then suddenly turned his head to look at Bai An, while pulling out the long knife from his waist and asked vigilantly.

"Why are you here!?"

"Ahahaha, I came here for a walk and came to see you."

Bai An said with a smile, not showing any panic at all, instead he looked at her with interest.

"Come for a walk here? What do you think this place is? This is the headquarters of the Navy."

Taotu glared at him with gritted teeth. She just couldn't understand how Bai An dared to stand here so unscrupulously.

Obviously, he is a heinous pirate...

Taotu kept reminding herself, but did not take action immediately. Instead, she asked the questions that had been lingering in her mind for some time.

"Tell me, are the things on the wanted poster true?"

Taotu stared at him, as if hoping Bai An would respond.

But Bai An showed a puzzled expression. He was not acting. He really had never seen the wanted warrant issued by the Navy for him.

However, in Taotu's eyes, this scene became disdain and a trampling of justice.

"I originally imagined that you were being wronged, or that you had no choice, but now it seems that I was wrong."

Taotu lowered her head and smiled bitterly, her hands gripping the knife handle trembling slightly, as if she had reached the limit of her endurance.

Bai An blinked his eyes, feeling that he needed to explain, but before he could think of good words, a sharp knife flashed through the air and pierced in front of him.

Taotu launched the attack without any hesitation.

Originally, she expected that Bai An would dodge, or even just stand still, so she wouldn't be hurt at all.

However, the next moment, her pupils contracted because the opponent did not dodge or evade, but blocked the blow with his chest.

"Pfft——!"

The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh echoed throughout the street, and a long crack appeared on Bai An's chest.

The next second, blood splattered on her delicate cheek.

She raised her head in a daze, only to see blood flowing from the corner of Bai An's mouth, but his eyes were extremely calm, as if he felt no pain.

"Why don't you hide?"

Taotu asked blankly, she didn't believe that Bai An would not be able to dodge the knife.

“Because I don’t want to hide anymore.”

However, Bai An just shook his head and showed a gentle smile full of memories.

Taotu was in a trance for a moment, and subconsciously drew his sword and stepped back, his eyes a little red.

At this time, Bai An wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his fingers and spoke softly.

"Why are you crying? We've only met once. Are you so sentimental?"

After saying that, Bai An gently wiped away her tears, and then began to tell the story he had spent five minutes making up in a sensational tone.

In the story, he was born in this world, his parents were both navy, but despite having given everything for justice, he was arbitrarily executed due to the orders of the Celestial Dragons.

Because he committed a serious crime, he was imprisoned by the Celestial Dragons and tortured every day.

Finally one day, he escaped.

But his hometown had long disappeared, leaving only a pile of desolate corpses. This made him realize that there were more than just pirates in the world. From then on, he worked hard to become stronger in order to pursue true justice.

The story was short, but Bai An's expressive voice and the sadness he felt deeply touched Tao Tu.

Even as a navy officer, after listening to Bai An's story, he couldn't help but feel angry and unwilling.

"Why don't you report this to the Navy and let them seek justice for you."

Taotu tried hard to suppress her emotions, but her voice still trembled with a hint of questioning.

"Navy? Why do you think that those guys would commit crimes without the Navy's acquiescence?"

Bai An sighed, and said with a hint of mockery and bitterness in his eyes.

"Don't forget, whenever the Celestial Dragons are wronged, the first to go are the generals you seek."

His words silenced Taotu.

At this time, Bai An stretched out his right hand and placed it on her shoulder, revealing a pure and sunny smile.

"So, are you willing to join me and bring true light to this world?"

"I..."

She slowly turned her head and looked at that smiling face. She was struggling, confused and conflicted inside.

Bai An was not in a hurry about this.

A long-held belief cannot be changed by just a few words from him.

However, Bai An did not intend to wait for her to think it through. Instead, he loosened his body to resist, and then quietly crushed a few bottles of weakness potion with his left hand.

"I may not be able to wait for your reply. I hope that the world of true justice will come..."

Bai An still had a smile on his face, but his tone became weaker and his voice got smaller.

In order to make the other party believe, he even deliberately controlled the magic power to flow around in his body and cause harm to himself.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you?"

Taotu panicked upon seeing this and tried to support Bai An, but found that his body was gradually becoming cold and stiff.

"Don't be sad. There will always be sacrifices on the road to justice. The only pity is that I can't see that beautiful world with my own eyes."

Bai An reached out his hand with difficulty and stroked her cheek, and finally closed his eyes.

And near the end, there was still a smile on his face, as if to let the other person know that everything he said was true.

"asshole..."

Taotu gritted her teeth and cursed, but her tears had blurred her vision. She wiped her tears, then picked up Bai An and ran to the medical department.

However, before he took a few steps, he felt something light in his arms.

Bai An's figure became transparent, with starlight floating in the air. His body turned into flying ashes and completely disappeared.

At this moment, Taotu was slightly startled, and then suddenly felt her heart beating violently.

She covered her heart with her hands, tears trickled down her cheeks, and an inexplicable sadness welled up in her heart.

We have only met twice, but it feels like we have known each other for years.

Perhaps it was the boy's pure smile that infected her.

Or perhaps she could relate to the infuriatingly tragic experience and the determination to pursue justice, or maybe there was some other reason.

In short, Taotu had too many complicated emotions in her heart at this moment.

She stood there in a daze for a long time, until she suddenly heard the navy in training shouting slogans of justice, and she woke up from her dream.

She loosened her clenched fists, wiped the tears from her eyes, and walked towards the marshal's office as if she had made up her mind.

At the same time, in the gap.

Bai An was eating pastries and drinking scented tea, watching Taotu's every move, with a faint curve at the corner of his mouth.

If possible, he would like to give himself a little golden man. He almost believed his performance just now.

Chapter 52: Is the justice represented by the Navy really justice?

In the office, Zhan Guo frowned as he looked at Taotu in front of him.

Just now, Taotu suddenly came to him and asked a bunch of questions about naval justice.

The questions were all very to the point, and there were so many opinions that even Zhan Guo himself couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Finally, Taotu made her request.

"Marshal Sengoku, I want to leave the Navy Headquarters for a while and go around."

Her expression was firm and her tone was calm, but her eyes revealed a strong determination.

When Sengoku heard Momotsuki's request, he immediately rejected it.

"Vice Admiral Taotu, I don't know who bewitched you or what kind of hearsay you got, but our navy represents justice. No matter what the reason is, you are not allowed to leave the team without permission!"

In this special period, losing a lieutenant general is a huge loss to the entire navy.

What's more, Taotu is a candidate for general whom he values ​​very much, and he will never allow Taotu to act willfully this time.

"I know what you're worried about, but I'm just going to take a look and search. I'm not going to do anything against the Navy. On the way, I won't forget my identity as a Navy member."

Taotu raised her head and stared at Zhan Guo with sharp eyes.

Zhan Guo remained unmoved and shook his head.

"Vice Admiral Taotu, I'm sorry I can't agree to this. What's more, your request this time is too frivolous. It's trampling on the justice of the navy!"

There was a strong sense of majesty in his voice, and this decision absolutely could not be changed.

At this moment, Karp's voice suddenly came from the door.

"What are you two arguing about? You're just going out to take a look, not to become pirates."

Karp pushed the door open, walked to the sofa and sat down with a smile.

"Karp, what do you know? Why do you come here to mess around?"

When he saw the person coming, Zhan Guo immediately frowned and scolded him.

Although he and Garp have a close relationship, he absolutely cannot compromise on this matter.

"Oh, it's not a big deal. Besides, hasn't Peach Rabbit girl already explained it clearly?"

Garp shrugged and said disapprovingly, then took out a bag of senbei from the drawer and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

When Zhan Guo saw this scene, veins bulged on his forehead and he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"Karp, are you here just to sabotage us?"

Sengoku stared at him, and Garp spoke vaguely while eating.

"No, I just came here to eat senbei."

Warring States: “….”

At this time, Peach Rabbit spoke.

"Marshal Sengoku, Mr. Garp, I would like to ask, regarding the mysterious shop owner we are currently looking for, are the crimes he has committed true?"
