I, Akainu, Absolute Justice
Chapter 18 Betrayal
country of jalzburg
It turns out that the country has endless war.
The war is over. After Bullet once again eliminated the commander, the enemy's army collapsed like a tide.
Bullet led the army to advance triumphantly and finally captured the enemy's capital.
The self-reliant king Feng Wa Lei surrendered, and the country that had experienced decades of war finally ushered in peace at this moment.
Bullet led the army to the streets of his country's capital, and was surrounded by water.
All kinds of flowers and gifts were thrown at Bullet, and countless girls were crazy about it.
He was a hero to the country, and word of his pursuit of a group of men had reached the capital, and everyone knew that the war ended largely because of Bullet.
Bullet, who was only fourteen years old, had never seen such a crazy crowd. He had spent all his time on the battlefield and could not understand the people's desire for peace.
Today, the country is at peace, all thanks to their national hero Bullet.
"Bullet, Bullet."
...
The continuous sounds reached Bullet's ears, which made the young man feel a little happy.
Freedom, I will be free soon.
After walking arduously through the crowded streets, the cheers from behind were still endless.
"Congratulations, Bullet, you are our nation's hero."
"You deserve this medal."
Douglas, as his commander, personally presented Bullet with the medal that symbolized the country's highest honor.
The cheers below the stage increased again.
His investiture ceremony ended quickly, as it was followed by a ceremony for the king to promote Douglas to general.
The ceremony was very cumbersome and lengthy, but Douglas felt excited.
As the military commander of this country, he has the strongest army, not to mention that he has defeated another country and brought peace.
The excitement inside is also beyond words.
"For the victory in this war, we must first thank our national hero Bullet, but I have to tell you some bad news."
The crowd below all held their breath.
"Next, he will leave our country to pursue his own freedom."
Douglas thought that by saying this, the people below would be a little dissatisfied with Bullet.
As a result, everyone still shouted loudly.
"Bullet deserves it."
"He brought us peace."
"Wish him good luck on his journey."
...
It's a pity that Bullet was not present at this time, because after he was awarded the honor, he left the phenomenon directly and returned to his house to pack his things.
"Damn it!"
All ceremonies are over, Trust General Douglas is in his office.
Douglas pounded the table angrily, alone.
"I didn't expect this boy's prestige to be so high now."
Feeling troubled, Douglas paced around the office repeatedly. Although he was very happy about the victory in this war, he did not expect that Bullet would get such high support.
If this continues, sooner or later I will be replaced by him!
It’s not surprising that Douglas thinks this way, this country has basically been like this in the past few decades.
Even he himself gained status by rebelling against his superiors, but most of his subsequent rise in status was based on Bullet's military exploits.
It's just that Bullet is not the kind of person who is keen on promotion. What he wants is for everyone to respect him and constantly improve his strength.
There is really no one in this country who can beat Bullet.
As the person who picked up Bullet, Douglas also knew that he was the only person Bullet trusted.
But it was precisely this that made Douglas unable to let go of Bullet.
He is so powerful that he basically obeys his words now, but these are limited to fighting.
When he told himself that he wanted to leave some time ago, Douglas knew that he was about to lose control of Bullet.
He is no longer the reckless man who only knows how to fight, he can think.
The more I think about this, the more irritated I feel.
What if one day Bullet is bribed by someone else? With his prestige, it would be easy to replace him as a general.
Even if he is only fourteen now, what about ten or twenty years from now?
Douglas couldn't believe it and felt angry just thinking about the day he would face.
This must not be allowed to happen.
Douglas is determined to get rid of Bullet.
Even if he has earned so much military merit for himself, he cannot deny whether he will betray him.
This is because Douglas's thoughts as a warlord have not yet changed. He has been in the midst of betrayal and counter-betrayal before, which makes Douglas's thoughts still eliminate all threats.
When there was another enemy threat before, he could tolerate Bullet for the time being, but now once the external threat is removed, the uneasiness quickly spreads throughout his body.
Kill him, must kill him.
Determined, Douglas immediately took action.
Dealing with the fact that Bullet cannot beat him while he is still in China, most people cannot beat him, and if the secret is leaked in China, his position will be unstable.
It must be after Bullet leaves. He can only leave here by boat.
Yes.
He is Demon fruit power, if he is allowed to sink on the ship, no one will know about it.
Moreover, since I disappeared at sea, everyone will think that I went sailing during the Bullet and did not want to go home, and people in China will not doubt me.
Just do it.
The plan was perfect, but it failed at the first step.
In the corner of the office, there are dozens of ants quietly observing Douglas's behavior and talking to himself.
"I see, this task is indeed simple."
Klein, who was hiding in the distance, eavesdropped and saw Douglas' behavior through the ants.
But how did Mr. Akainu know?
Forget it, he must have his methods, I just need to complete my task.
At this point, Klein left a few ants there, and the rest were disconnected.
Communication still consumes more energy than commanding.
Of course Bullet, who was about to leave, was completely unaware of these things.
He suffered so much betrayal as a child and in the military that he now hardly trusts anyone.
The only person Douglas can grudgingly trust is also the one who has been taking advantage of him.
Bullet always knew that Douglas was using him to earn military glory for himself, but Bullet didn't care.
He felt that he could no longer improve his strength in this country and he needed to go out and make a living.
Tomorrow, he will leave this country where he has been fighting for several years.
