C1172 Justice Only Matters If You Win
The atmosphere suddenly became stifling.
The words that suddenly came out of Garp's mouth undoubtedly broke the hope and yearning of the crowd.
After all, as the Emperor of the Ocean, Uchiha Qinyu had given away the Devil Fruit that Whitebeard and the other four emperors had given up. He cupped his hands and wanted to give up.
Such heroic actions were indeed intriguing.
"Humph, Garp, aren't your words a little too much? Don't forget the iron rule of the strong preying on the weak in this ocean, but no one wants to see the enemy become stronger." Red Dog said in a deep voice.
"That guy is famous and cunning. Just based on his words, he made us retreat. This is not going to weaken the prestige of our navy."
"He did say that these Devil Fruits are poisonous, and he even gave them to us. However, I think he is just worried that he will become the target of public criticism after seizing those Devil Fruits. After all, no matter how powerful he is, he will still die in the face of the attacks of the various major powers."
s now. As for whether they are poisonous or not, let my adjutant have a taste of them."
Red Dog grabbed the Red Dogs piled up on the deck and threw them to the burly Admiral of the Navy who was standing behind him.
"Dorami, this is the fruit that you have always dreamed of. Take it now. Don't embarrass me." Red Dog said in a deep voice.
Red Dog was indeed in favor of distributing these Red Dogs ahead of time.
However, he did not do this for some righteous reason.
Instead, in his mind, The same thing the other man had said to Eam that day.
"Dorami, don't act rashly." Garp hastily said.
"Dorami, this is a crucial military order that concerns the Marine Headquarter's victory. Don't forget that you have applied for three years and have yet to obtain the rights to distribute Devil Fruits. If you give up now, you won't have any share in this pile of Devil Fruits." Red Dog coldly harrumphed and urged.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell upon Dorami.
Feeling the change in the atmosphere, Dorami's expression changed. In the end, she clenched the Devil Fruit in her hand and opened her mouth to bite down.
Gulp!
Without much chewing, the Devil Fruit that entered his mouth was directly swallowed by Dorami.
This scene made many people tense up. Even Garp was no exception.
However, following the passage of time, Dorami's body gradually changed.
The crisp sound of bones cracking could be heard. At the same time, she threw her head back and let out a lion like roar.
She looked at Dorami, who had almost burst her loose navy uniform and turned into a human lion.
The bulging muscles that were filled with explosive power caused the eyes of many people to burn.
"There's no poison. There's no poison in these Devil Fruits. Uchiha Qinyu is indeed a liar. General Red Dog was right."
A navy major general was the first to exclaim.
Although he soon realized that what Red Dog said was inappropriate, others quickly agreed.
In many people's eyes, as long as one of the arguments was overthrown, everything that this person said would be untrustworthy.
At the very least, what Red Dog did proved what he said.
"This..." Garp suddenly stopped talking.
"Alright, this matter ends here. Since everyone wants to distribute the Devil Fruits in advance, the minority will obey the majority now." Zhan Guo patted Garp's shoulder and said.
"Whoever wishes to obtain the medicinal Devil Fruits will go and report to He. As for what kind of fruit they can obtain, it will all depend on luck to draw a dark draw. No matter what unforeseen event happens afterwards, it will all be up to me to take responsibility!"
As soon as these words fell, the scene immediately boiled up.
If one were to say that just now, it was only to discuss the feasibility of the proposal.
Now that Warring States Period had said these words, it was undoubtedly a real blow to this matter.
He Ku's tree-like face twitched for a moment. His expression was still the same as he said, "Since Marshal of the Warring States also agrees, then follow me to distribute it. I hope that after you obtain this medicinal Devil Fruit, you will be able to survive in the following great battle."
After throwing down these words, He was the first to turn around and leave.
Those Admiral of the Navy who were interested in touching the medicinal Devil Fruit immediately left about seventy to eighty percent.
The enormous deck of the ship instantly became empty.
A smile appeared on Red Dog's face. He looked at Garp, who seemed to have suffered a little, and said, "Lieutenant General Garp, I'm sorry. I was thinking about the Marine Headquarter's victory."
"Victory in this ocean where the strong preyed on the weak. Even if you resort to unscrupulous means, you are no exception."
"Dorami, follow me to manage the order of the outcome. After all, I was the one who suggested the distribution in advance."
Seeing Red Dog and Dorami leave in a flash, Garp did not retort. He said, "Isn't it too reckless to do this in the Warring States Period? Don't forget what Roger said that day. It is the iron rule that the pirate gang has always followed."
As the Pirate King, Roger had fought with his opponents for most of his life in this sea.
Garp and Roger were both enemies and friends.
Otherwise, Roger would not have entrusted his wife and Ace to Garp before he died.
Zhan Guo was silent for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said, "Garp, I know all these principles, but don't forget that justice is behind us. They are all pirates. It is very difficult to make the navy believe in pirates."
"Furthermore, we cannot lose this battle. I hope you can understand."
Understand?
Garp was stunned for a moment before he fell into silence.
It could be said that Garp's character had always been standing on the edge of darkness and light.
He would drink with the pirate. His son and grandson were either Revolutionary Army or pirate.
He would even turn a blind eye to the bandits.
In Garp's eyes, as long as you were a good person, no matter what your identity was, it could be explained.
However, in the face of the absolute justice of the navy, as long as anyone was tainted by it, it would be irreparable.
It was precisely because of this that Garp was the first to fall into a disadvantage in the battle of words with Red Dog.
Looking at the war countries that had also left, Garp sighed faintly.
"If this is the root of right and wrong, then what role does Heavenly Celestial Dragon, Five Elders, and even Eam play?"
"It seems like just like what that brat from the Blood Flag said, justice can only be decided by one side."
"Hopefully, just as Roger said, in the end, the island of Lavderu will be able to uncover the truth hidden in this world."
His voice faded along with the sea breeze.1
As the orders from the Warring States Period were issued, the fleet formed by the Marine Headquarter undoubtedly sped up their pace towards the final island, Lavderu.
