People are full of pirates

Chapter 386
What is this for?
The ghost spider and the flying squirrel were puzzled at first, but soon they were moved.

I can only see the distance.

On the five ships, more than [-] slaves gathered at the stern of the ship, and all knelt down, facing the side of the Thunder Eagle, bowing down.

"Lieutenant General, listen."

It was too far apart, and the voices of the slaves were mixed in the whimpering sea breeze, so they couldn't be heard clearly.

"Goodbye, Nuo Xia..."

"Your...great kindness...virtue, must be remembered in..."

"Thank you……"

Some were crying loudly, some were waving their hands desperately, some kowtowed dozens of times in an invisible corner, and finally got up with tears streaming down their faces.

Nuo Xia didn't raise her head, but listened quietly for a while, then smiled and sighed softly, and whispered a few words to the communications officer beside her.

After a while.

The Thunderhawk turned around slowly and headed in the direction of Marin Fando.

Before turning back, the white sail fluttered and the semaphore was played.

"Bon Voyage."

……

boom!
A fist hit the table heavily, documents flew, and Weier's face was livid in the gap.

"A bunch of trash! Trash!"

The veins on his forehead were twitching, and he roared angrily at the several lieutenant generals who came to return: "Ten warships! Five lieutenant generals, tens of thousands of navy!"

"It's more than enough to wipe out a country's rebels! How can you let thousands of slaves escape?! Such a simple task has failed, what's the use of the navy supporting you! Let the people above look at our headquarters!"

A group of lieutenant generals lowered their heads slightly, silent, but with different expressions.

Huoshaoshan was smoking a cigar, and there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth from an angle that Weier couldn't see, while Buckle seemed to be holding back something, and glanced angrily at the figure in the middle from time to time...

The one in the middle is naturally Nuo Xia.

He didn't lower his head, and kept looking straight at Weir across the desk. There was no emotion on his handsome face.

"White Dragon!"

Weier finally noticed Nuo Xia's expression, and his anger became even worse. He stared at him with bloodshot eyes, roared sharply, and spittle flew all over the place:
"It doesn't matter to you! Right! Of course you don't care! According to the old man, you bastard is deliberately letting water in secret!"

"Otherwise, can you run away from your famous Bailong Nuoxia?"

Nuo Xia still stood there expressionless, without moving.

The splashed saliva was quietly electrolyzed before it touched his cheek skin, turned into hydrogen and oxygen gas, and dispersed in the air.

"Freedom of mind, no evidence of blood in the stool and spitting at the mouth."

He looked at the furious Weir, smiled and said, "This is not something a marshal should do, Mr. Weir."

"No evidence?"

Weier was startled for a moment, then laughed angrily, and said sharply, "You talk to me about the evidence at this time? Bailong! Do you know how much wrong you have committed again!"

"The entire Navy Headquarters, and even the world government are ashamed. Regardless of whether you deliberately released the water, the slaves all ran away after the mission failed. This is an indisputable fact! As the commander-in-chief, you have the greatest responsibility, and you cannot escape the blame!"

boom!
The more he talked, the more angry Weier slammed his palm on the table. After a loud bang, the entire desk was split in two.

The lieutenant generals didn't dare to vent their anger, even the smile on Huoshaoshan's face gradually disappeared, and they turned their heads to look at Nuo Xia worriedly.

"Suspended!"

The desk cracked, and Weier's anger seemed to dissipate a little bit. He stared at Nuo Xia and said coldly:

"From now on, I will be suspended for two months, and I will be given the highest punishment once. All annual leave and salary will be cancelled! I will go back and reflect on this old man later!"

"You are not allowed to go out for two months. The headquarters will fully investigate what you did in this arrest operation!"

"Professional soldiers should take it as their bounden duty to obey orders unconditionally!"

"If it is found out that you did it intentionally for your ridiculous justice as in the last White Town incident, then what awaits you is multiple crimes and punishment. The result will not be as simple as it is now, understand... ...What are you doing! White Dragon!"

Before he finished speaking, the coldness on Weier's face faded instantly, replaced by fright and anger——

Because at this moment, Nuo Xia raised his right arm leisurely, and a bright blue lightning flashed in his palm...

Damn!

How dare this guy!

Weier's pupils constricted, and the hair on his back stood on end. Almost instantly, he took two steps back subconsciously, a wisp of dark color leaked from his chest, and then quickly spread all over his body.

In just half a second, the iron-like armed domineering covered his whole body, as if wearing a thick layer of iron armor.

After barely gaining some sense of security, he stared at Nuo Xia again, only to find that the other party had no intention of making a move at all.

Instead, a piece of white paper shot out from the thundering palm, slowed down, and fluttered towards him...

Shame on you!
The weird gazes cast by the surrounding lieutenants made Weier blushed. He grabbed the paper in shame, and the armed armor on his body faded like a tide. As he took it apart, he asked in a cold voice:
"what is this?"

Before Nuo Xia could respond, his complexion changed suddenly, because after opening the envelope, there were two eye-catching black words on the front of the unfolded paper:
"Resignation".

Weier suddenly raised his head in disbelief, just in time to meet Nuo Xia's smiling expression:

"At least it's the Admiral of the Navy, Mr. Vail, don't be so nervous, I really want to kill you, your turtle shell is useless."

Turtle shell?

Weier's face was filled with anger again, and before he could speak, Nuo Xia, who was opposite him, laughed lazily.

"All that needs to be said is on paper, so I won't accompany you to play house here, Mr. Marshal, it's better to avoid suspension or something. See you in the future."

He waved his hand casually and turned away.

The figure gradually disappeared outside the door.

Weier was so angry that his whole body was trembling, staring at the leaving figure for a while, but he couldn't say a word.

But at this time, the sea breeze blowing outside the window rattled the letter paper in his hand, and he subconsciously looked down.

What kind of resignation letter is this? There is no beginning, no reason, no signature date, and there are only four black words one size larger than the title throughout:

"Grandpa quit"

……

after an hour.

A piece of frightening news first circulated in the small circle of high-level naval officers, and then quickly spread to the entire Marin Fando.

——Nuo Xia resigned.

The entire headquarters was in an uproar in an instant.

Through the channels of acquaintances, some high-level officials who probably knew the details of what happened, such as Zhan Guo, Huang Yuan, He and others, all changed their expressions and rushed to Nuo Xia's house immediately.

I want to persuade Nuo Xia to be patient for the time being, and I must not leave the navy directly because of impulsiveness.

And the middle-level lieutenant at the bottom, and the bottom-level sailors.

However, he knew nothing about the real resignation process, and with the gossip flying all over the sky, it became more and more evil. In just one afternoon, it evolved into Weir relying on his status as the new marshal to deliberately make things difficult and blame all crimes. It was imposed on Lieutenant General Bailong, forcing the latter to resign angrily.

Is there any reason for this?

In terms of status, it is natural that Weier, as a marshal, is much higher than Nuo Xia, but in terms of prestige and popularity, Nuo Xia is the top existence in the entire Navy headquarters, even Zefa Sengoku cannot compare with it, let alone just airborne Came from Weir.

The anger spread instantly, igniting the entire Marin Vanduo, from the port, to the training ground, to the barracks dormitory...

Whether they were training or resting, even the warships that had sailed out of the harbor and were about to go out to perform field missions turned around one after another.

At this time, anyone who shouted would receive a hundred responses, and more and more sailors gathered angrily towards the fortress building.

They want to seek justice for the Lieutenant General Bailong they admire and worship, and ask for an explanation from Marshal Weir who wears a pair of pants with the World Government.

At dusk, under the square in front of the fortress, more than [-] figures had already gathered densely under the square in front of the fortress, completely surrounding the entire fortress building.

The sea calendar is in June 1507.

Because of a piece of resignation, Marin Fando broke out a collective mutiny unprecedented in hundreds of years!
……

into the night.

After sending away the last batch of high-level acquaintances who came to persuade, Nuo Xia came to the courtyard.

At the table under the moonlight, there was only Aokiji left, drinking sherry in silence.

"What's the matter, haven't you left yet?"

Nuo Xia opened a chair and sat down opposite, and asked with a smile, "I've already had dinner, don't you still want to have a supper with me?"

This guy was going back to the G-5 branch at noon, but when he heard the mutiny in the headquarters, he immediately left the warship in a hurry, and rushed back to the headquarters alone on his bicycle.

"Even Mr. Zefa came here in person... You really can't listen to the persuasion, just hold back for a few years, can't you wait for Mr. Zhan Guo to take over? Do you have to resign now?"

Aokiji raised his head and asked in a low voice.

"Well, it's fixed."

"why?"

Nuo Xia leisurely poured herself a glass of wine, but did not answer directly, "The moonlight tonight is pretty good, it reminds me of those years... Well, remember the first time we talked under the moonlight?"

First talk in the moonlight?

Aokiji looked at the handsome black-haired young man in front of him, and was stunned for a while, but his thoughts flew back to that night seven years ago in an instant.

……

At that time, as a lieutenant general, he was temporarily acting as the chief instructor, and with a ship full of recruits, he returned to the headquarters after completing the actual combat assessment from Beihai.

When there is no wind on the way.

He asked Nuo Xia, who was still an ordinary recruit at the time, a question.

"For example, justice, boy, this is the word that will be engraved on your cloak after you graduate. What do you think of these two words...?" ""

"He turned his head to look at the boy, his eyes were full of confusion, his messy hair under the moonlight was like a chicken coop"

""There is nothing to say about this, Lieutenant General, the way of justice in everyone's heart is different, as long as you stick to it and implement it. ""

"But this is exactly the problem, boy...""

"At that time, he looked up at the night sky. The night was very dense that night. The crescent moon was like a hook. Only a few sparse stars were dotted in the endless night sky."

"For example, you are that star now. ""

"He pointed to one of them, and said quietly to the young man, "Obviously he has been trying hard to persevere, but the light emitted is still negligible, and the surrounding darkness is still the same, so deep that the bottom cannot be seen. If it were you, this What should we do now? ""

"This question is asking Nuo Xia, and it seems to be asking himself."

""Keep going. ""

""There is a little heat, a little light, let alone a star, even if it is just a firefly, you can do your best in the dark without waiting for the torch. ""

"The boy answered without hesitation, as if it was a matter of course."

"... Is that point of light meaningful? ""

""certainly. ""

"The boy also smiled and pointed at the sparse stars"

""One more thing, you are wrong, those stars are actually much bigger than the sun, the reason why they are a little bit in our eyes is just because we are too far away to see clearly. ""

""But for the planets around them, that beam of light is extremely dazzling, enough to illuminate and warm the entire world. ""

"Is there such a thing?"

"He raised his head and squinted at the distant stars."

"For some reason, he thought of the civilians he had saved and the pirates he had killed over the years, as well as Sauro who died in front of him a few months ago, and Robin who ran away with tears..."

"Didn't you just ask me what I think of justice? ""

""If I can do my best to make this dark world a little bit brighter, even if it's really just a lack of darkness as big as fireflies, this is the way of justice I follow. ""

"He withdrew his gaze from the night sky, and stared at the boy again in a daze."

"But I think things aren't that pessimistic, are they?Anyway, our navy has so many like-minded people, no matter how small a firefly gathers together, it can at least illuminate a large area. ""

"The young man's gaze met his, and he suddenly started laughing, not in a proper way."

""Of course, people's dreams are still bigger after all. Who can tell in the future, what if my little firefly, fluttering, can also climb to the sky in the future, become a star, and suddenly burst out brighter than the sun? What about the light that sweeps away all the darkness around you? ""

"He was stunned for a while, then suddenly laughed."

""What an arrogant brat, boy, your ambition seems to have been exposed. ""

"Under the moonlight, the boy didn't speak any more, he remained silent"

PS: Resigning and leaving for a few years is for the main storyline, which is different from defecting. The protagonist has been in the navy from the beginning to the end, and it is impossible to be a pirate.
