One Piece Overlord
Chapter 71, Faith
There was a small boat docked at the beach, and there was a series of footprints on the beach. The footprints were dense and it could be judged that they were not left by one person.
Ain walked towards the island with Sol on his back.
Sol's face was pale and his steps were frivolous, stepping deeper and shallower on the beach.
Of course, it would not be so easy to escape from a head-on battle with former Navy Marshal Sengoku.
"Smelly old man, you are really merciless. If you had known, I would have just thrown him into the sea. Anyway, there are so many navy on the warship, I probably can't drown him."
Thor rubbed his chest and grinned.
Ai Yin had a sad face. The person she feared and hated the most was Sol.
Being alone with him this time was already the limit. Unexpectedly, this guy was still so close to her at this time, and even half of his body was pressed against her.
This made her feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
"Do you want to give me a knife? I am in a weak state now, and this opportunity is rare."
Sol suddenly whispered in Ai Yin's ear, and then watched Ai Yin shudder with his own eyes. His eyes lit up and then went out. In the end, he just lowered his head and said nothing, still holding most of Sol's body. .
Thor's lips curved into a smile.
"It's a pity. If you use your ability at this time, I should be hit immediately. After all, we are so close and I am so weak, I will definitely not be able to avoid it. Then facing me when I was just a teenager, you have a chance of winning. Isn’t it very big?”
Listening to Sol's bewitching voice, Ai Yin gritted her teeth and said nothing.
"Really not..."
Thor continued to speak, and soon became speechless.
"Are you annoyed? Will you die if you stay quiet for a while?"
Ai Yin couldn't bear it anymore and exploded, but Thor was stunned.
Thor shut up obediently, and Ai Yin continued to lead Sol on his way, cursing incessantly.
After a long time, Saul suddenly whispered, "Did you just scold me?"
Ai Yin froze, as if struck by lightning.
The town on Misty Island is not very big, and the central square is the central place for temple fairs.
There are three streets around the square leading to the outside of the town. Every night on the three streets, there are food and entertainment. Vendors of all sizes rely on this opportunity to make money.
There are a lot of people on the street. Ordinary families take their children and walk among the crowds.
Children walking in the crowd will definitely be very satisfied if they can eat a piece of takoyaki.
The high-ranking officials and aristocrats of the upper class rode carriages with guards at the front and back to clear the way, heading to the land of romance and beauty.
A man with sharp eyes and a knife appeared on the road. Behind him was a woman holding an umbrella, which was very eye-catching.
The woman was very active. She squeezed in to take a look on the left side and stood on her toes on the right side. It looked like it was the first time I had seen such a strange thing.
Many men looked at that figure with envy. Even the singers in the small town couldn't compare to such a beautiful woman.
However, many people only dared to take such a stunning first look when they saw the terrifying sword that the man was carrying.
On the other road, Crocodile led his capable men along the way.
"Idiot, don't you have eyes?"
A fat man touched Crocodile when he passed by, and immediately turned his head and pointed at Crocodile and cursed.
"Ok?"
Crocodile stopped and glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
The latter was immediately frightened, but he could not lose his dignity. He still pointed at Crocodile and said tremblingly, "You... what do you want to do? Don't you know that I am the only son of General Mitsuhide? If you mess with me, you will never survive!" "
puff~
An arm flew up, spun a few times in the air and then fell to the ground.
The severed hand still maintained its pointing gesture.
The fat man was stunned for two seconds, and then the sound of a ghost crying like a wolf rang out.
Then within more than ten seconds, a group of black-armored warriors surrounded the two Crocodiles.
"Go and see how the young master is doing!!"
The leading warrior broke into a cold sweat.
They were the secret guards of this obese man. They gathered around him when he had an argument with this man at the beginning, but they didn't expect that the other party would take action so quickly! !
He stared closely at the man dressed as a monk. It was the man who cut off the young master's arm with a single blow.
The young master was injured under their noses, and they would never be able to escape responsibility...
………………
People on the street were rushing towards a street, as if something had happened.
Sol glanced at the direction of the crowd, and then followed the crowd slowly.
In a singer's courtyard, someone brought news that someone had been killed. For a while, many people ran out to join in the fun.
"Miss, it's not peaceful outside tonight, so be careful."
An old servant knocked on the door and reminded in a low voice.
"Ah."
A woman's voice came from the room. It just made a sound but had no follow-up.
The old servant could see the young lady's shadow sitting in front of the dressing table through the door and window, so he felt relieved and turned to leave.
In the room, there was only a weak light source from a candle.
A woman in a bright red kimono sat in front of the dressing table.
She swiped her index finger covered in red liquid on her mouth, and her lips were as bright as blood.
Looking at her breathtaking appearance in the mirror, the woman smiled charmingly.
Under the desk behind her, a man wearing a pointed hat fell to the ground, with a dagger stuck in his chest...
………………
Misty Island, Ueda Castle.
Ueda Castle is a dictatorial place that breaks away from the world government and does not accept the naval station.
Together with the town of Evernight City, they are all led by the samurai from Ueda Castle.
The leader of the samurai is Mitsuhide, who is known as the undefeated general.
Mitsuhide was originally a ronin, but he was elected as a leader because he repelled the pirates who robbed the town.
Ten years ago, he personally formed a samurai army, declared his independence from the leadership of the great powers, and became a warlord ever since.
"General...General! General, it's not good!!"
A warrior stumbled in and knelt in front of a tall, thin middle-aged man.
"Why are you so rude and rude?"
The middle-aged man wearing a kimono and a sword hanging from his waist had an aura of calmness and self-reliance. The accusation at this time made the samurai tremble with fear.
"What happened?"
General Mitsuhide asked with a frown.
The warriors he leads have always been brave and adept at fighting and have a hard-line style. How could they behave in such an indecent manner?
The samurai also knew that he was rude. He took two deep breaths, calmed down his emotions, and said, "General, the young master was attacked in a small town. His arm was cut off. He doesn't know whether he is alive or dead!!"
"What!??? Where are the guards? Where are the thirty elite guards?"
General Mitsuhide was shocked, grabbed the samurai's collar and shouted angrily.
"The guards... all the guards... were killed..."
The warrior who finally calmed down said tremblingly.
General Mitsuhide's face was livid, and the veins on his forehead bulged. He threw the samurai away and cursed angrily, "Trash! They are all a bunch of trash!"
"Send me a military order! Send troops to surround the town! We must find the murderer!!"
"Yes!!!"
………………
"Killing people~ killing people~"
The town was in panic.
The temple fair, which was originally lively and lively, suddenly turned into a mess.
The screams of adults, the voices of overestimation, the cries of children...
I just went over to join in the fun, thinking it was just a fight between one or two people, but I didn't expect that twenty or thirty people died in one afternoon!
Saul sat on the roof, watching the dense crowd below crowding and trampling on each other, and soon greater chaos broke out.
He watched with his own eyes as a delicate woman pushed down a crying child in front of him, then stepped on the child and ran towards the back. None of the people behind him stopped to pick up the child whose screams were getting weaker and weaker, but just ran in panic with the flow of people.
In the face of fear and life and death, human nature is exposed.
Sol grabbed Ain who was about to go down.
"What are you doing? Let me go, that kid is going to die!!!"
Ain frowned and struggled, but unfortunately Thor held on tightly and refused to let go. Instead, he smiled and said, "Save people? Who do you think you are? You are a pirate."
"Even if you are a pirate, can't you save people?"
Ain shouted towards Thor angrily. In her opinion, the identity of the rescuer has nothing to do with whether he is a pirate or a navy.
Are there no kind pirates?
Because of this delay, the child's voice was completely inaudible.
"Hahaha... Did I hear it correctly? Save people? How do you save people? Tell the crowd to stop? Will they listen to you? Or repel them? What if someone gets trampled again? Or, because If you prevent them from escaping, what will you do if they are killed by the murderer who catches up? Besides, with so many people, it must be more than just this kid who lost his family and was trampled. How can you save those people? Are you sure? Are you rescuing people?"
Ai Yin's face suddenly turned pale, and the strength of her struggle disappeared.
She hesitated.
Sol grabbed the absent-minded Ai Yin and pushed her to sit next to him.
"Don't be fooled by the illusion in front of you, you know? If you kill ten people to save one person, then you are not saving people, but killing people."
Sol looked at the lost Ai Yin with a smile, and continued, "Everyone's life and death are predestined. Those idiots who say that my fate is up to me are people who only appear in the script. Those who sacrifice themselves for others, The awe-inspiring righteousness is deliberately exaggerated by the media. Believe it or not, those people with an explosive sense of justice, those guys who shout about morality and justice all day long, there are a lot of people below. Do you think they are still there at this moment? Will it really be so righteous? Will it still be as benevolent and righteous as it is usually boasted about?"
Sol reached out and pinched Ain's chin, turning her head to look at a chaotic crowd.
"Look, that guy is a teacher. Several children greeted him just now, and he responded to them all cordially. But now, look, he personally shook off the hand of a little girl who grabbed his clothes. He ran away for his life. What would happen to the little girl who was separated from her family? Was she pushed down and then trampled to death, or was she chased and killed by the murderer? What about the teacher's benevolence, justice and morality? He was a role model for others. What? Didn’t he give these things to the students? Hehehehe...this is...human nature."
Ai Yin was trembling all over.
"No, no, the teacher taught us...the navy is just, and justice is protection..."
"Justice? Navy? Ridiculous word. You will never forget that Zefa finally wanted to destroy the new world, right? Who are there in the new world? Navy? Pirates? Ordinary people? Is this the justice you are pursuing? The navy is just. ?”
Thor leaned into Ain's ear and whispered, "I heard that there is a military order in the navy called the Demon-Slaying Order. Several third-level warships can concentrate their artillery attacks on a place to destroy an island. So, over the years, The navy has launched the demon-slaying order several times, please ask. There are many people on an island, are they all damned people? Is this how the navy protects the weak?"
"Ah~~!!?"
Ai Yin suddenly screamed, covered her ears with her hands, and cried, "Don't say it anymore, don't say it anymore... It's not like this... It's not like this... Don't say it anymore..."
The justice she had insisted on for more than ten years completely collapsed at this moment.
Although she was still making her final rebuttal, it all seemed feeble.
Sol rubbed his stinging ears, took off the wine gourd and took a sip, just looking at her and smiling.
This was all going as he expected.
Ever since Ain saw the child and felt compassion for her, Thor had caught her.
As for the teacher and child, it was all made up by Saul.
Anyway, in this crowded and chaotic place, they didn't know anyone when they first arrived, so they could just say whatever they wanted.
That is to say, that man is the child's father, and it is okay for him to abandon his child and run away when he is in danger.
The reason why Thor is called the Ghost King is not because of his powerful fighting power.
But because of his ruthless style and cunning schemes.
How to truly defeat a person without knocking him down or killing him.
But beat him psychologically.
Just like there are many countries in the world, there are many armies.
Among those armies, there must be someone who goes out with orders and goes to die with emotion even though he knows he must die.
It's not something complicated, but it's because those people have faith in their hearts.
Just like why Ain is obsessed with killing Thor.
That's because she has not given up her belief in justice and has not forgotten that she is a navy. Not to mention that his teacher died in the hands of Thor.
However, many invisible things are often the easiest to break and disappear.
Once you lose your faith, many endings will be different.
The troops who lamented their death are gone, and the dormant hatred for revenge will also dissipate...
