Smoker, Tina, and Drake did not expect to hear such a speech from the mouth of the former Navy Admiral Aokiji.
"Dedicate yourself to the pirates -" Smoker's shoulders shook, obviously very angry. He stood up suddenly and shouted angrily at Kuzan: "Kuzan, is this what you want to say!?"
Driven by the ability of the Smoke Fruit, smoke surrounds Smoker, forming "smoke belts".
"..." Kuzan just looked at Smog quietly, then turned to Zefa: "Teacher Zefa, do you agree with my idea?"
"Alas..." Zefa sighed and said, "You made such a serious mistake before, and now I am not qualified to educate you."
Smoker clenched his fists, and his fists were covered with armed domineering energy. Even if he couldn't beat him, he still had to show his fists.
The door lock suddenly made a "click" sound, and then the door was slowly opened.
"Huh?" Dasqi's cute voice sounded: "Is there a guest at home?"
Kuzan raised his hand to say hello: "Yo, you are..."
"General Green Pheasant!" Dasqi exclaimed, quickly raised his hand to salute, and introduced himself: "I am the adjutant of Major General Smoker, Dasqi!"
"Hmm~~" Kuzan looked at Dasqi seriously again: "Sure enough, who is the one between you and the Dawn Pirates? In short, they are very similar."
"...General Qing Pheasant, you will be chopped down if you do this." Dasqi said helplessly:
"Her name is Kuina, don't use other titles to replace her."
"Oh." Kuzan nodded repeatedly.
Dasqi noticed the solemnity in the air and asked, "What happened?"
"It feels like there's going to be a fight in the next second."
The arrival of Dasqi interrupted Smoker's momentum. Smoker took a long breath, sat back, and the smoke that escaped was taken back into his body.
Kuzan took the initiative to chat: "Dasiqi beauty, why did you come back?"
"Pretty girl or something..." Dasqi blushed and looked away in embarrassment.
Smoker said directly: "This is just a polite word, don't take it so seriously."
"..." Several people present rolled their eyes.
Tina said: "Smog-kun, you haven't had a girlfriend, have you?"
"What?" Smoker was startled.
Tina educated: "You can't speak, Mr. Smoker, no wonder no woman likes you."
Smoker's face darkened: "What I'm talking about has nothing to do with whether I have a girlfriend, right?"
Tina wanted to speak, but Dasqi raised her hands and advised: "Lieutenant General Tina, it's okay."
Tina glanced at Dasqi, who said with a wry smile: "I'm used to it."
"..." This time, even Tina didn't know what to say.
"General Qing Pheasant, my strength is still very weak." Dasqi answered Kuzan's initial question: "So I have been practicing these days!"
"Practice..." Kuzan looked at the scars on Dasqi's hands and legs, as well as the fatigue that Dasqi couldn't hide.
"You're going to be really awesome."
Dasqi replied loudly: "I will definitely work hard to live up to General Qing Pheasant's expectations!"
Kuzan corrected himself: "Also, I am no longer a general."
"In my heart, Admiral Aokiji has always been an admiral!"
"Ha!" Smoker snorted coldly and said, "Dasqi, you will be disappointed."
"Eh?" Dasqi was stunned.
"This..." Smoker pointed at Kuzan and said, "This former navy admiral came here to join the Dawn Pirates."
"Eh?!" Dasqi was surprised again.
"Are you disappointed?"
"..." Dasqi lowered his head and pondered for a moment before replying with a firm voice: "I can understand General Qing Pheasant's choice!"
"?!" Smoker's eyes widened in shock. Is she still the cute girl with glasses who often makes stupid mistakes without wearing glasses?
Drake, Tina, and Zefa were also surprised by Dusqi's words. In the impression of the three of them, Dusqi had always been submissive.
But Daschi actually has her own opinion. In the original work, she met the exhausted Straw Hats in Alabasta and did not take the opportunity to arrest them. Instead, she followed her inner morality and let her go. Pirates who deserve to be apprehended.
In Punk Hassad, in order to save the helpless children, to stop Vergo's plan, and to find out Caesar Brown's conspiracy, she did not hesitate to give up the majesty of the navy, agreed to Trafalgar Law's request, and worked with Trafalgar Law. Falgar Law teamed up with the Straw Hats.
However, in this time and space, these two major events did not happen. Crocodile was eliminated by Yamato in advance, and Caesar Brown was also captured and executed by the Dawn Pirates.
"Oh?" Kuzan raised his eyebrows.
Dasqi turned his neck and glanced at Zefa, Tina, Smoker, and Drake in turn, and said: "I know that you recognize the Dawn Pirates in your heart, but you just refuse to admit it with your mouth."
"..." The other four people kept their mouths shut and did not deny it.
"I have always believed that justice is what is beneficial to the people."
Dasqi continued: "As a navy, as a party that upholds justice, I take the initiative to launch attacks on non-member countries."
"A large number of innocent civilians died tragically in the gunfire, but just to satisfy the selfish desires of the world's nobles!"
Dasqi's voice trembled, filled with endless anger.
"In my opinion, the World Government is the most evil pirate group! They desperately suck blood from the participating countries, plunder non-joining countries, and fatten up those useless Celestial Dragons! Countless civilians have died for them and become nourishment. Just for the glory, wealth, arrogance and licentiousness of the Tianlong people!"
"And our navy is just a thug raised by the World Government. When ordered, we will bite each other's hawks and dogs in order to maintain their dominance!"
Dasqi's voice was deafening, tearing open the fig leaf that they had been unwilling to tear open.
"...Dasqi." Tina sighed: "You are right, but Tina has always been unwilling to face it."
"Young people today are so powerful." Zefa scratched his hair and sighed: "They can see much more clearly than I do."
"Come on." Smoker glanced at Zefa angrily: "Teacher Zefa, you asked Ain, Binz and others to help Eric green the town, don't you have this kind of mentality..."
Smoker didn't continue because he couldn't convince himself - the Dawn Pirates' rule is stronger than the World Government!
"Forget it, Mr. Smoker." Tina glanced at him: "You just lost the bet and vented your meaningless anger everywhere."
Kuzan asked in surprise: "Bet?"
"Well, eh... that person also wants to recruit a few people from Tina."
Tina explained: "Then we made a bet. If a high-ranking navy officer takes the initiative to join him, we will also join the Dawn Pirates."
"..." Kuzan scratched the back of his head, not expecting that his choice would determine the outcome of the bet.
"General Qing Pheasant."
"Call me Kuzan."
"...Yes, Mr. Kuzan." Dasqi said using honorifics: "I will go with you and ask to join the Dawn Pirates!"
Kuzan grinned. It was a very happy thing for someone to recognize his choice: "Okay!"
Dusky turned to look at Smoker, who crossed his arms and turned his face away: "I just abide by the bet, not admit defeat to Eric." 33
"Smog-kun, you are too proud of yourself." Tina sighed.
"People will make many mistakes in this life..." Zefa slowly stood up: "And this time, it should be the most important choice in my life."
The unsmiling Drake joked for the first time: "The most important choice...isn't it the time some time ago when Teacher Zefa was about to blow up the new world?"
"Ahem!" Zefa choked on his own saliva.
At this moment when they opened their hearts, the few people present had never felt so relaxed.
The false righteousness is taken off the back and replaced with the righteousness respected in the heart.
It won't be shown to everyone, but it is the truest justice.
Some people died, but not completely...
