Pirates: From Summoning My King

Chapter 48 The Justice of the People!
Akainu squinted at the hill in the distance, which was Estes who was adding ice to Tang En, then turned his gaze back to Artoria, and said in a deep voice:
"I have the same idea as Lieutenant General Esdes on this point, challenge the strong, and then become stronger!"

"So, what is your purpose of becoming stronger?"

Arturia plunged the holy sword into the ground, and put her hands on the hilt.

Without waiting for Akainu to answer, Artoria said directly:

"I've heard about you before. You once sacrificed a ship of the navy to complete the mission."

Akainu obviously didn't expect Artoria to talk about this, but even if he talked about this, he was right to insist on his justice.

"In my opinion, war cannot be without casualties. For the sake of the lives of the majority, it is okay to sacrifice a few people. It is very cost-effective to exchange the sacrifice of a few people for victory."

"I used to think like you, and I used to do like you. Do you want to hear my story?"

Arturia's eyes were full of reminiscence and tenderness.

At this moment, it is difficult to raise hostility.

Everyone in the world wanted to know the past of this powerful female knight, and how a girl who looked so delicate grew up to what she is today.

"of course."

Akainu nodded as well.

"I was born in an island nation, Britain."

Artoria looked up at the distant sky, as if she was looking at Great Britain in another world, the place she was willing to give everything for.

"At that time, Britain had internal and external troubles, rebels, pirates, enemy countries, princes, and wars and divisions. Coupled with the lack of shelter, the basic income was not protected, and the people lived in hardship."

"There is a legend in Britain that the person who can pull out the sword in the stone will become the new king of Britain. The moment I pulled out the sword in the stone, I already knew that Britain's demise was doomed."

"why?"

Akainu asked what everyone wanted to know. In the face of my king's strength, it should not be difficult to protect any country.

"because I."

A trace of regret and regret flashed in Arturia's eyes.

"I have been raised as an ideal king since I was a child."

"I myself know how to protect the country."

Arturia changed her voice, looked at Akainu and asked, "But what kind of king is the real ideal king?"

Akainu didn't know how to answer, and everyone present was also thinking about what kind of king is an ideal king.

Artoria didn't want to get an answer from Akainu either, she just took a deep breath and said to herself:
"I like, love to see people's happy smiles, what I hope to see is everyone's joy."

"In order to achieve all this, all I can do is to make everything the best."

"So for the benefit of most people, I choose to give up the small village and claim the place."

When Akainu heard this, his expression of indifference changed, and he understood what Artoria meant.

Since that incident, he has always demanded himself as an absolute soldier, sacrificing a few for the benefit of the majority, and he has done this kind of thing.

Others don't understand him, thinking that he disregards civilians and ordinary navies for his own military exploits, but in his heart the navies and the people of the world have always been the objects of his allegiance and dedication.

Artoria's idea of ​​governing the country exposed the strangeness of Akainu to everyone's eyes, and everyone also thought of Akainu's behavior style, and then suddenly realized.

It turned out that this was the idea of ​​Akainu!

Many pirates in the New World who have dealt with Akainu have heard my king's words now and know why Akainu is so ruthless.

"You want to know, my ending?"

Artoria looked at Akainu indifferently in front of her. This man who was willing to sacrifice everything for the navy and the people was so similar to his former self.

"I guarantee the interests of the majority of people, but the majority of people think that this is not what people do."

"I think Lieutenant General Huoshaoshan and others around you don't understand your actions against the navy and civilians."

Hearing Arturia mentioning herself, Huoshaoshan and the hawks nodded. Although they were all hawks, they were only for pirates and dangerous elements, and they also disagreed with Akainu's behavior.

Akagi also saw the nodding of Huoshaoshan and others, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"The king dedicated everything to the people, but the people couldn't understand such a perfect king."

"In the eyes of the people, such a perfect king can no longer be called a human being."

"When the foreign aggression is basically over, everyone no longer needs to worry about the survival of the country."

"I started to be feared by the people!"

"The more perfect I am, the more painful it is!"

"The more miserable I am, the richer the country will be!"

"Britain perishes in my misery!"

After listening to Artoria's words, Akainu froze in place, as if he saw his future through Artoria's way.

Akainu looked at his outstretched hands, which contained the blood of many pirates and the lives of civilians and marines.

"The navies are afraid of me."

"Is my justice wrong?"

Akainu thought of those classmates who were drifting away from him, those soldiers who feared him like a tiger, whether he would really go the way of Artoria again and destroy everything in the end.

At the same time, Dahaishang outside the arena was also arguing endlessly because of Artoria's words, with some supporting and some not agreeing.

"Father, I don't understand how such a perfect king would be abandoned by the people, obviously everything she did was for them, and you are so strong, Daddy, we won't be afraid of you."

Marco touched the back of his head and looked at Whitebeard in confusion, hoping to get an answer from him.

"Ku la la la!" White Beard took a sip of wine, wiped his beard with his arm, and said with a smile:

"Because this is human nature. Human beings are very complicated, but we can't simply use violence to solve everything. As for you not being afraid of me, there is no reason for a child to be afraid of his father."

in the field
Seeing that Akainu was hesitant, as if he was engaged in a complicated psychological struggle, Artoria said, "I heard that you have always regarded thorough justice as your philosophy."

"But in my opinion, justice should be to understand people's hearts, and I will not do the thing of sacrificing a few people for the sake of the majority."

"If every navy should have its own idea of ​​justice"

"Then I think justice should be."

"Justice for the People!"

Justice for the people!
As soon as my king said these words, all the civilians in front of the camera insects were severely attracted by Artoria. Because of these words, countless civilians began to support Artoria who joined the navy less than half a year ago.

What a people's justice!

Many dove generals outside the field nodded frequently when they heard Arturia's words, and looked at Artoria with friendly eyes, as if they had already regarded her as one of their own.

"I didn't expect that a person who joined the navy for less than half a year would have such a deep understanding of justice. Arturia is a talent."

Warring States and Lieutenant General Crane on the high platform were also smiling, and they agreed with Artoria's idea very much. This kind of people's justice can almost be added to the recruit textbook as a creed.
