Chapter 394 The Darkness of the Pirate World

Aokiji said expressionlessly, "Are you kidding me, Shanks?"

Even he found it absurd.

You might be able to recruit ordinary navy personnel, but you are a naval admiral, the highest combat force in the navy. Do you think you can just accuse someone of betraying you with a few words?

No, I'm very serious.

Shanks' expression turned serious. "You're not a qualified Marine, Kuzan. Join me as an adventurer!"

"Ridiculous, Shanks."

Aokiji exhaled a chilling breath, his emotions inexplicably volatile.

The fighting spirit that had vanished was rekindled.

This caused the atmosphere, which had initially calmed down, to become tense again.

He said he was not suitable to be a navy officer.

The subtext is that it is questioning its own will to be just.

Having upheld justice for countless years and risen to the rank of Admiral, it is only natural for Aokiji to be angry when his most fundamental principles are questioned.

This is a person's belief.

Just like Luffy's desire to become the freest person on the sea and Sanji's wish and dream of eating the Clear-Clear Fruit were refuted.

In a higher-level world, this conflict of beliefs could even lead to pollution and depravity.

original,

Aokiji almost killed the Straw Hat crew because of Robin's ulterior motives.

After finally managing to calm down and decide to continue observing the right and wrong of the will of justice, Shanks pulled this stunt?

Even if his strength is inferior to Shanks,

If it comes to fighting for his life, Aokiji won't hesitate at all.

Shanks continued, "If you were truly committed to upholding the Navy's justice, no one would have survived the Ohara incident."

boom.

The ground was pierced, and dozens of ice spears wrapped in cold air emerged.

Shanks swayed slightly, dodging all the ice spears and standing in the gaps between them.

Shanks did not retaliate, but continued, "The Navy's justice is not for you."

Aokiji frowned and replied, "The Navy is now free from the World Government's control. Shanks, your attempts to sow discord are too naive."

Former Navy

He has indeed done countless things that have disappointed Aokiji, and even Aokiji cannot accurately judge the difference between justice and evil.

But all of this was because of the World Government. Now, with the help of the Reincarnation Game, the Navy Alliance has broken free from the World Government's control.

It is a brand new, independent organization of justice.

"It's not about provoking."

Despite the hostile attitude of Aokiji, Shanks still maintained his intention to recruit him.

A voice slowly drifted over.

A blind man with purple canes and closed eyes walked up to Shanks, emanating an aura that was remarkably similar to Shanks'.

"Asura?"

Aokiji raised his eyelids and looked at the blind man who had suddenly appeared. He quickly recognized him.

Fujitora,

A Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with a gentle and straightforward personality and a strong sense of justice; his game class is Asura.

The Navy Alliance had previously conducted recruitment, but Fujitora, who originally had a favorable impression of the Navy,

But in the end, he suddenly switched sides and chose to join the Adventurers' Guild.

Aokiji had seen the other person's information, so he was able to recognize them.

"General Aokiji".

Fujitora bowed slightly and greeted Kuzan politely.

His glasses were obscured by the cold air, and Aokiji frowned as he asked, "You refused to join the Navy Alliance, abandoning justice. Now you want to turn me against you?"

He was actually very curious about why Fujitora ultimately refused the Navy.

No matter how you judge it

The navy is the greatest force in maintaining peace at sea, not adventurers who act on free will and disrupt the world.

It's strange that Fujitora would make such a choice, given his personality.

Fujitora shook his head slightly and said, "I only came to believe, after careful consideration, that the future described by Chairman Shanks is true justice."

"nonsense!"

"Admiral Aokiji, has your immense power led you astray?"

Fujitora's tone was harsh and unyielding as he said, "What I value is the safety of civilians, not serving the Navy's hypocritical justice. Shouldn't we refuse to accept the Navy's offer?"

"Hypocritical justice?"

Aokiji's face darkened with anger, and he said coldly, "Fujitora, do you think anyone is maintaining the stability of this sea?"

Without the navy's patrols, countless countries across the world would have been ravaged by pirates long ago.

to this end,

Countless young naval personnel have sacrificed their lives, and he will never allow anyone to slander the navy.

Fujitora suddenly countered, "So, has the living environment for ordinary people changed?"

"Of course it's changed, the Navy is capturing pirates..."

Aokiji wanted to retort, but was interrupted by Fujitora.

Fujitora said, "Before I considered refusing the Navy, I traveled through countless towns and countries, and things did not get better because of the Navy's independence. The common people are still struggling in dire straits."

"It's even harder than before."

Aokiji didn't speak, his eyes showing confusion.

Having been baptized by the cycle of reincarnation, the Navy Alliance's strength has greatly increased, and most of the scattered pirate crews have been wiped out.

How could ordinary people possibly have an even harder life?

Fujitora sighed and said, "Admiral Aokiji, do you really think that pirates are the only enemies of ordinary people?"

"The World Government has become a god race, and the former Heavenly Gold has been replaced by god sacrifices. Every country must offer a large amount of resources to the god race."

"Did the Navy try to stop it?"

Aokiji remained silent.

Although the Navy Alliance has broken free from the control of the World Government, it still maintains a delicate cooperative relationship and naturally cannot afford to antagonize the other party over such a matter.

After a long pause, Aokiji opened his mouth and said, "When we get back, I will discuss with the Fleet Admiral and ask the World Government to lower the Celestial Gold."

Cancellation is definitely not an option.

But reductions are possible, and then the lives of ordinary people should be much better.

Fujitora sneered, "The World Government will lower the Celestial Gold, and then the Marine Alliance will take it, right?"

Aokiji sensed the hidden meaning in his words and asked, "What do you mean?"

As far as he knows,

The resources of the Naval Alliance are mostly the reward points from hunting polluted monsters by naval forces at all levels, and are pooled together after some contributions.

Another portion is the military expenditure for the navy stationed in countries around the world.

boom!

The purple cane slammed into the ground with a crisp sound. Fujitora's face turned ashen as he said, "Go ask Fleet Admiral Sengoku yourself where those commanders who originally belonged to various branches got the resources to cultivate [top-tier players] under their command."

"The branch commander is trading with local nobles, selling commoners like cattle!"

"Slaves are everywhere in the world!"

"Even worse, some secretly collaborated with the World Government, kidnapping Vegapunk and using his scientific technology to inject zombie poison extracted from the Zombie World into civilians, infecting entire towns and using them as zombie hunters to earn reward points!"

Fujitora unveiled countless unbearable darknesses.

He didn't believe it at first, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he was shocked that these nobles and high-ranking officials could regard human life as such a cheap thing.

"How is that possible?!"

Aokiji's gaze suddenly sharpened, and cold sweat slid down his forehead, freezing into ice crystals.

How could the Navy Alliance do such a thing?

Would the Warring States marshal allow it?

Did Lieutenant General Tsuru know about this?
