At noon, Kuzan Borsalino said goodbye to him.

“It was an honor to work with Chief Xia Le. It was an unforgettable memory.”

Borsalino smiled and said goodbye.

This morning, the three future generals were told that they would leave Xia Le's team and have other arrangements.

"What you said yesterday was very cool!"

"I can only use two words to describe everything about you, Xia Le."

“Let’s go!”

Kuzan gave a thumbs up and praised with a grin.

Xia Le smiled back at him: "Take care, Kuzan!"

"Your words helped me find the path I should stick to."

"I will work hard to catch up with you as soon as possible."

Kuzan turned around and waved goodbye.

As for Sakaski, he left as soon as he heard the order.

"Those words."

"You should be careful. Some people above are taking actions against you."

Crocodile stood behind him and whispered.

"Once his words get out, it will be useless to be careful."

Barrett sneered, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

"It's better to rebel against the navy!"

"With our strength, we can be a pirate or become the Pirate King."

"Or anything else, it's enough!"

Xia Le narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this.

But after a moment, he just chuckled and didn't respond.

Chapter 87 Get on board, boy

The midday sun shines on the streets of Rogue Town.

The weather today is nice and sunny, and the roads are no longer as crowded as in previous days.

Xia Le's team walked towards the port. They were ready to withdraw and return to headquarters.

Along the way, he was also thinking.

There is no doubt that the concerns expressed by Crocodile are justified.

The words he said to the world would not cause doubts or dissatisfaction among the upper class. Although it was a spur-of-the-moment thought, it was also something he said deliberately after careful consideration.

Sometimes, words are the sharpest weapon and can have unimaginable effects.

Roger's words opened the curtain of the Great Pirate Era, but how much impact can his words have on the world?

equality.

These two words are the highest ideals pursued by people in any era.

How many great men have sacrificed their blood and lives for these two words.

Undoubtedly, absolute equality is unrealistic, full of idealism, and a beautiful utopia.

People are born unequal, with different backgrounds, talents, growing environments, etc. But countless people are still working hard to make them relatively equal in personality.

Following Roger, he used words as weapons and wielded them against the world for the first time.

What will be the consequences?

Xia Le actually had a guess in his mind and was also making some calculations in his mind.

In a blink of an eye, everyone arrived at the port of Rogue Town.

"Lieutenant General Xia Le!"

"It's Lieutenant General Xia Le!"

"Equal justice, it's Commander Xia Le!"

In an instant, all the sailors gathered at the port waiting to evacuate, whether they were soldiers or officers, turned their heads and stared at him excitedly.

Looking at the expressions of everyone in front of him, Xia Le smiled slightly, his heart moved slightly.

Undoubtedly, compared to the rest of the world, those at the top are only a minority.

Equality and fairness, these seemingly illusory words are the ones that can touch people's hearts the most.

The pirate world, which is based on freedom, lacks the most basic concepts of democracy and human rights. In other words, the world's thoughts have not yet been enlightened.

But at the same time, this era, under the guidance of freedom, will also be a period of the most intense clash of ideas.

Xia Le narrowed his eyes, smiled and nodded to everyone.

"Get on board and return to headquarters!"

Then he spoke to the people behind him.

Of course, I wouldn't really listen to Barrett's words.

No matter what he wants to do, being a pirate is not the best choice. On the contrary, a stable environment suitable for development will be more conducive to the construction of his forces.

Everyone raised their feet and prepared to board the warship.

At this moment, a white-haired boy suddenly rushed out from the crowd.

"Hey, kid!"

"return!"

When the sailors saw the young man rushing over, their faces suddenly changed and they shouted.

Even in a moment, there were colonel-level officers ready to take action.

Xia Le was naturally also alarmed by this scene. He turned his head and when he saw the white-haired young man, he was slightly startled and raised his hand to stop the actions of others.

When the young man ran in front of him, panting, he looked at him with a smile.

"Young man, do you have anything to say to me?"

Smoker stopped breathing and stared at the smiling general in front of him. After looking at him seriously for a while, he suddenly took a deep breath and shouted.

"I, I want to be a marine!!"

The boy's voice was loud and spread across the port.

This also made all the navy people stunned, and then they burst into laughter.

No one would refuse, a young man's intention to actively join the army.

"Oh?"

Xia Le raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What's your name?"

"Smorg!"

“I saw you on the live stream and heard what you said!”

Looking at the man in front of him nervously, the courage Smoker had just mustered was quickly dissipating.

After all, this is an area heavily guarded by the navy, and there are a large number of officers around, especially the man in front of him, who is a super strong man who is trying to capture Roger, the Golden Lion Shiki.

What did I do just now? I actually broke through the barrier and arrived in front of the other party.

"I, I want to be the righteous navy you mentioned."

Smoker's mind was full of random thoughts, and his words became more nervous.

"is it?"

"If you want to be a marine, the Rogue Town branch recruits new soldiers every year. Once you pass the recruitment, you will naturally become a qualified marine."

Xia Le smiled slightly.

Hearing the other party's name, he now compared his face with that of the middle-aged man in the future.

The user of the Smoke Fruit, Smoker!

He is also the most miserable guy. He has almost never won any important battles since his debut, and every time he shows up, there is a miserable result.

His heart was stolen by Law, he was defeated by Vergo, he was killed instantly by Doflamingo, and he was defeated by Barrett.

It can be said that when this guy first appeared, everyone compared him to Garp, but two years into the story, he became worse and worse.

However, Smoker's character is beyond doubt.

"what?"

When Smoker heard what Xia Le said, he was stunned.

"I, that's not what I meant!"

Then he began to explain anxiously.

"I, I want to follow you!"

"I would like you to guide me to become a righteous marine!"

Smoker said this, and he knelt on his knees nervously with his forehead pressed against the ground.

This scene came into everyone's eyes, surprising many people.

The white-haired boy's actions are not much different from seeking a famous teacher and becoming his disciple.

So, will General Xia Lezhong accept this seemingly ordinary boy?

silence!

For a moment, everything fell silent.

Behind Xia Le, Crocodile, Barrett, T. Penn, Rocinante, Evans and others, even Buggy who had just been forced to change into the navy trainee uniform, were all staring at the boy in front of them.

"Follow me?"

After a long while, a light laugh was heard.

"Because of that?"

Smoker pressed his forehead to the ground and immediately shouted, "Yes! Equal justice is the true good I am pursuing!"

His voice was so loud that it made many marines' faces tremble slightly.

Xia Le laughed.

"What exactly is justice?"

"You should have your own understanding, instead of just listening to what others say."

"Young Smoker."

After saying this, Xia Le turned around and boarded the warship in front.

Crocodile and others followed one after another, leaving Smoker alone still kneeling there, in a daze.

"Your own understanding?"

"Equal justice, isn't that right?"

Questions arose in his mind, and the white-haired boy became confused for a moment.

After a long time, he raised his head and looked at the young lieutenant admiral who was standing on the warship and looking down at him.
