Pirate's Freedom

In the sea deep into the New World, off the coast of Wano, there is a vast archipelago semi-surrounding it to the east.

This miraculous land can only be created by a large-scale eruption that occurs only once in tens of thousands of years. After the investigation by naval scientists, it was determined to be a hidden submarine volcano group. After Lieutenant General Kuzan reported it, the construction of Navy G9 began a year ago. branch.

As a nail wedged deeply into the new world, facing the siege of two sea emperors, this is the [frontline] of [advancing the war].

Zefa, chief instructor of the Navy, temporarily serves as the head of the G9 branch. Monsters gather here. In this year's brutal war, the reputations of [Ao Pheasant], [Akainu] and [Kizaru] have resounded. This [strongest sea].

At the same time, the buds are growing quietly.

……

The navy that seizes the middle part of the archipelago faces Kaido's [New Onigashima] defense line protrusion and the devastated forward base [Balmonk].

——The 14th internship site of the Navy Elite Training Camp. Three months ago, a total of 115 people were stationed here. Now only 47 people survive.

……

The tragic battle had just ended.

In the Naval Field Emergency Hospital, blood-stained sheets were crumpled into a ball and piled haphazardly at the corner of the corridor, and the sound of rollers scraping across the floor was continuous.

There was a slight choking sound among the busy noise.

"terribly sorry--"

The man who had to be placed on a hospital bed in the hall and who also lost his left arm and right leg was not crying for himself.

"Failed to do its job."

"...Don't worry..."

The man wearing the cloak of justice stopped, and Lieutenant General Kuzan, who served as the base commander, put his hand on the wounded man's shoulder and squeezed it firmly.

"It's not your problem..."

……

"Additional, send a report to request support."

Pushing open the door to the base director's office, Lieutenant General Kuzan, who had just returned here, spoke immediately.

"I'll go negotiate with Teacher Zefa. If this continues, it's only a matter of time before we fall."

"Where is the support? In the eyes of the superiors, continuing to draw troops from all over the world is a small gain."

Lieutenant General Jiaji, wearing wooden clogs, a top hat and khaki attire, leaned on his desk and said with a tired expression.

"After what happened in the Chambord Islands, all the big and small bosses on the sea have probably got the news. At this time, it is already a blessing to not shrink the force."

"[Balmonk] has been stained with blood."

The blood stains on his trousers shattered into ice shards and fell to the ground. Kuzan calmly showed his determination.

"I'm not going back from here."

"Then there's only one way -"

Feeling deeply troubled, Jiaji bit into pieces of the cigarette, chewed the tobacco in his mouth and sighed.

"Recruit troops, and recruit troops from nearby places."

……

"..."

"But distant water cannot quench near thirst, Sakaski, you should have heard that sentence."

In another base that was at odds with [Balmonk], Lieutenant General Jonathan, who was standing by the window, turned around and looked at his long-time friend.

"——[There are samurai in Wano Country]."

……

After the war, the port of [Balmonk] was still filled with smoke. Looking out from the breakwater, a small forest was looming on the sea.

The damage was so severe that the warship sank directly in the port and there was no time to clean it up. The observation deck at the top of the mast was still exposed above the water.

"still there……"

The patter of rain continued, and the white-haired boy raised his head. Under the wash of the rain, traces of blood oozed from the newly stitched wound on his forehead.

"Everyone……"

There were footsteps behind him, and the girl in a short-sleeved marine uniform, soaked by the rain, walked up the steps step by step.

"Hanna and Giselle are gone...Linobili...Linobili...can't hold it anymore...Hina...Hina...so sad..."

The beautiful girl with long light pink hair covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably.

"Everyone... why do you want to..."

"If you don't swim forward, you will drown..."

A voice interrupted her.

"Everyone knows very well that in this ocean, if you don't strive to reach the upper reaches, there is only a dead end!"

The hands on his knees slowly clenched.

"No one can complain! Because we ourselves decided to bear the burden of justice!"

The young man gritted his teeth, and the centipede-like wound burst open again.

"Since you don't want to lose anymore...then find a way to make yourself stronger!!"

……

The secret base of the Red Earth Continent.

After asking Langdon something, Hancock hurried back to his room after dinner.

Boom boom boom!

"Hey! Hancock!"

The doll held in Kerra's arms knocked on the door.

"Langdon has already paid a visit. News will be back soon."

"You're so annoying, Erwin."

Indistinct sounds came from the room.

"I want to be alone for a while."

Outside the door, Sonia and Mary also stood beside him worriedly, patting his head, Kerla gently urged, and Tata Tot raised his voice.

"It's hard to come to the Chambord Islands. You should bring some souvenirs. Hancock, please make a list-"

Bang!

The door was suddenly opened, and Hancock stood at the door impatiently.

"What the hell are you trying to say!"

"……I mean--"

Tata Tot thought for a moment and then said.

"I'll pay the bill."

"Are you all right?"

Hancock's dark blue eyes stared at him.

"never mind."

Tata Tote is concise and to the point.

"Really are--"

Hancock looked around and exhaled.

"Sonia, Mary, and Kella, everyone come in."

"Then I'll go see Sebastian."

Tata Tot raised his paw knowingly.

"Check how he's doing with his homework."

"Oh...wait a minute, Erwin."

Just as he was about to jump out of Kella's arms, Hancock sighed and suddenly stopped him.

"I didn't want to say it at first, but I can't help it."

"Is there a problem?"

Tata Tot was confused.

"It's a bet..."

Hancock seemed very determined.

"Actually, I'm not confident that I can win, Erwin. I thought before that it wouldn't matter if I lost. It's fun to see how suspicious you are."

Hancock's eyes wandered.

"But it's different now. If I can win in three days, Erwin, I'll kill you—"

Looking across Kerla's face, Hancock's voice paused, but he still spoke.

"Tell me the real name."

"..."

Tata Tot's body tensed, Kerra hugged him without saying a word, turned and left without looking back.
