Chapter 36 A Tragic Life
Chapter 36 A Tragic Life
Aini frowned. What was underneath... that would be troublesome. He couldn't possibly turn the whole street upside down, could he?
The commotion was too great, and the damage was too extensive.
If he really did that, Smoker would probably be the first to stand up and stop him.
So Aini went into the weapon shop again and found the owner.
"Gurgle..."
The boss swallowed hard, and just a glance outside was enough to tell how intense the battle had been. Yet the major before him was completely unharmed, not even his cloak was torn.
They clearly possess a dominant advantage.
Aini chuckled lightly: "Boss, how many Berries is this Ghostly Strike?"
Boss: "Twenty thousand Berries."
Enni: "This is the Sandai Kitetsu. Although it's not among the top 50 good swords, it's still a famous sword. Is it really only 20,000 Berries?"
The shopkeeper paused for a moment: "Major, this is a cursed sword! If I hadn't just witnessed your strength and believed you could subdue it, I wouldn't have sold it to you at all... Besides, if I put it in the worst category of swords, then I'd have to sell it as the worst sword."
"Thank you very much!" Enni took out 20,000 Berries and handed it over.
He then changed the subject: "I heard you have a fine sword here, one of the fifty best swords, the Snow Walker. Would you be willing to sell it to me? I'll offer thirty million Berries..."
The boss was slightly taken aback, then somewhat surprised, wondering how the major in front of him knew.
However, he lowered his head and considered it for a moment before saying, "Please wait a moment."
Soon the owner came out carrying the snow-white snow sculpture and handed it to Aini: "I've always wanted to find it a suitable owner so that it can become famous again."
Enni took it: "I'll have Smoker deliver the Beli, and there will be an extra ten million... This ten million is for the shop owners who were just affected by the battle; it's my compensation to them. After all, those pirates came because of me."
Upon hearing this, the boss's eyes lit up: "Then I'll thank the major on their behalf."
This time, no reward was given. This is because both Yubashiri and Sandai Kitetsu are renowned swords, and both are classified as fast swords. After all, the Sword Soul System only gives a reward once for a sword of a given level.
Pity.
However, Zoro will now have another famous sword.
Immediately, Aini took the knife and walked out, then with a powerful leap, she soared into the air. Using Moonwalk, she headed towards the port.
Extremely fast.
"Rumble..."
Just then, a loud explosion rang out in the distance. Aini instinctively turned her head to look, and with just one glance, her eyes widened in shock.
Because he saw that someone was fighting Smoker back and forth.
"Holy crap..."
Enni was completely stunned, because Smoker was absolutely invincible in the entire East Blue. Even in the original story, when Luffy, the protagonist, was about to overcome Smoker, he had to rely on his father, Dragon, to stop him.
But now.....
Aini stopped, watching the ongoing exchange of fire from the air. One was just smoke, the other just mud...
Natural sciences?
That makes sense. In this East Blue, only those who are also Logia-type users can stop Smoker.
However, this ability is somewhat similar to the Swamp-Swamp Fruit. It's unclear which is superior and which is inferior.
Now he understood why Smoker hadn't caught up earlier.
It turns out this guy blocked it.
At the same time, Smoker roared, "Jack, what are you doing? Don't forget, you used to be a Marine too."
“Navy?... Hmph... Hahahaha…” Jak couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Yes, I used to be a navy officer. But so what?"
"Are you still wondering why I would act as a dog for those people?"
"Why? Just because they can give me what I want... If I stayed in the Navy, would I have been able to get this Logia-type Mud Mud Fruit?"
Is it possible?
"Besides, as soon as the Celestial Dragons activate the electricity, even the Navy Admirals, who are the Navy's highest combat force, will have to obediently go and protect them."
Regardless of right or wrong, they would kill everyone the Celestial Dragons wanted to kill.
Therefore, the entire navy is nothing more than the Celestial Dragons' dogs.
If that's the case, then what's wrong with me following those people?
After all, they also serve the Celestial Dragons. I'm just serving them under a different identity.
To put it bluntly, aren't we all just dogs serving the Celestial Dragons? What gives you the right to stand on the moral high ground and condemn me?
If you're so capable, use your morality to condemn those high-ranking generals!
If you're so capable, go and defeat the Celestial Dragons!
We're all dogs, who's more noble than whom?
"you..."
Smoker was speechless, because what the other person said was absolutely right. How could he possibly refute it?
"call..."
Smoker took a deep breath and said slowly, "Then you should also have your own bottom line. Don't forget that you once wore the coat of justice."
"Wearing the robes of justice???"
Ha ha ha ha....
Gak felt as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, and he laughed so hard he could hardly breathe.
After the laughter stopped, Jak's expression turned ferocious, and he roared, "Smoker, have you forgotten how my wife and daughters died?!"
"I will die because of the justice of your navy."
"I was on the front lines fighting pirates, while my wife and daughters died at the hands of my comrades. And now you stand before me, talking about justice?"
"If my sense of justice can't even protect my wife and daughters, then what's the point of having justice?"
"this...."
At this moment, Aini, who had already arrived beside the two, seemed to have heard the biggest gossip in the world.
He didn't consider himself a good person, but he absolutely couldn't bring himself to lay a hand on the wife and daughter of a colleague who was on the front lines.
He looked at Gack with some sympathy.
Just by listening, he could deeply understand Gak's pain.
The deaths of his wife and daughter had already caused him unbearable grief. But to die for the very justice he believed in... it was simply...
The deaths of his wife and daughters, the betrayal of his colleagues, and the collapse of his faith all came together.
Frankly, it's a miracle that Jak is still alive. After all, very few people in this world can withstand such a blow.
He was the same way.
I can only ask timidly: "That bastard actually killed the wife and daughter of his comrade who was fighting on the front lines? Is he even human? Although I, Aini, am not a good person, I really couldn't do something so despicable."
Aini's voice made Jacques and Smoker both turn to look.
The moment Jak saw Aini, his eyes narrowed and a cold glint flashed: "It's you?"
He then laughed again, turning to Smoker: "Look, even that bastard Burns' son knows this is inhuman. But our general did it anyway."
"general?"
Aini immediately grasped the key point.
Then, looking at Jacques with even more sympathy, she asked, "Your wife and daughters didn't run into that mad dog, Akainu, did they?"
"Mad dog?"
Jak paused for a moment, then laughed: "You're right, this guy is a mad dog. He'll use any means necessary to kill pirates, and he'll sacrifice anyone."
My wife and daughter were captured by pirates, and even after they revealed their identities, that madman still attacked without hesitation...
"It really is this guy."
This was unexpected; after all, if they could lay hands on women and children, then what made pirates any different?
Yet it makes sense, because that's the kind of person Akainu is.
