I'm an undercover pirate and I'm about to become a Yonko.

Faced with the terrifying pressure from the enemy, Gu Chen already found it difficult to fight head-on, not to mention that the civilians around him made him full of scruples.

As a pirate, Snag waved countless sword energy unscrupulously, cutting the surrounding buildings into rubble.

When Elvis came to Gu Chen's battlefield, he saw this scene, and this was also the reason for the quarrel between the two.

"Hahaha, this time we are going to catch Brady Noel and you guys in one fell swoop!"

While Snag laughed wildly, he kept waving the blade in his hand and slashing at Gu Chen's body.

"Open the door and break the thunder!"

Gu Chen put the blade into the scabbard, then stepped hard with the sole of his foot, and quickly moved towards Snag. A black sword light appeared on the blade with an armed domineering aura.

Snag, on the other hand, held the knife horizontally in front of him, and the two blades collided together, creating a spark from the friction.

"Open the door and the phoenix spreads its wings!"

A phoenix shadow appeared behind Gu Chen, and Gu Chen's blade seemed to be wrapped with flames, emitting astonishing heat.

Snag also became serious about Gu Chen's sword skills. His armed domineering energy wrapped around the blade, and a sword light flashed across it, cutting the phoenix shadow in half.

Peng!

The collision between the two produced a powerful air wave, and Gu Chen followed the impact and jumped back.

Snag took advantage of the victory and pursued it, rushing towards Gu Chen with a huge sword energy. At this time, behind Gu Chen, there happened to be civilians fleeing far away.

When Snag released his sword energy and enveloped Gu Chen and the civilians in the distance, he, who was supposed to dodge, actually stopped in place, holding on to Snag's sword energy, causing himself to be injured.

If this was the case, Elvis would not be angry, but the next scene surprised Elvis.

When Snag felt that he had discovered Gu Chen's weakness, he continued to attack the surrounding civilians.

At first, Gu Chen worked hard to protect the surrounding civilians from evacuating, but when he found that he alone could not protect everyone, he actually made a move that Elvis couldn't believe.

That was Gu Chen's sword energy that swung Snag over, used the blade to deflect it, and actively slashed in the direction of a civilian who had not yet evacuated!

If Elvis wasn't fast enough, the result would be self-evident.

With the addition of Elvis, the situation of the battle gradually became clearer. At least with Elvis' help, Gu Chen's pressure was not so great.

The surrounding civilians also left here.

What happened after that was that the two sides continued to fight, and neither could defeat their opponent immediately. It was not until something changed on the battlefield on Noel's side that Cracker and Snag, who were notified, evacuated the battlefield directly.

But this incident made Elvis remember it in his heart.

Elvis also found an opportunity just now and wanted to ask Gu Chen why he did what he did at that time.

In Gu Chen's original words, since he realized that there were always people who could not be saved, he chose to sacrifice some people to save more people.

In order to minimize the damage, Gu Chen even personally eradicated those who could not be saved.

And this was something Elvis couldn't accept. Gu Chen's past was indeed tragic, but Elvis also had a difficult childhood.

If you can't protect the people around you, then you don't have to protect them, or try to protect them as much as possible.

What Gu Chen said could not be the reason for him to kill those civilians with his own hands.

In order to prevent these people from becoming his weaknesses, killing these civilians so as to hold Snag back was really hard for Elvis to accept.

Everyone has their own tragedy. Elvis always felt that Gu Chen's past and personality were very similar to his former self.

Elvis did not refuse all Gu Chen's original training requests.

This is not only because they are companions, but also because Elvis sees the shadow of his past.

But the scene just now made Elvis realize that Gu Chen was also different from him, but he felt that Gu Chen's character might cause catastrophe in the future.

Elvis's words caused Noel to fall into silence.

He didn't expect that Gu Chen's character actually had such a side.

Noel couldn't tell whether Gu Chen was good or bad, because everyone was an independent individual.

Others have no right or qualification to criticize Gu Chen's behavior at that time.

Because Gu Chen's idea is also very simple, that is, as long as he has no weaknesses, he can hold Snag back, so that the civilians further away can safely leave the battlefield.

This is like a very classic human ethics question.

There are five children and one child on the two tracks respectively. The track where the five children are is exactly the way the train is going. At this time, you need to make a choice.

Should we choose to sacrifice a few people to save the majority, or choose to save that innocent child and sacrifice five lives?

What Gu Chen did was a choice he made.

That means sacrificing a few people to save more people.

Noel shook his head. If it were him, he might not be able to make a choice as firmly as Gu Chen.

Whether it is Gu Chen or Elvis, both of them have good intentions.

Elvis didn't mean that Gu Chen's choice was wrong, but he couldn't accept it. He felt that if Gu Chen continued to act like this, it would cause a big disaster in the future.

But this is also a false proposition. Before something happens, before a tragedy strikes, you can't blame Gu Chen for his actions.

"As companions, we can only try our best to help him." Noel said slowly.

Elvis nodded.And there was still a trace of worry on his brows.

Noel returned to his cabin, and he was not ready to talk to Gu Chen about this matter now.

Now that Elvis has expressed his concerns, there is no need for Noel to bring it up with Gu Chen.

At this time, Gu Chen looked at his hands. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his original choice.

If there is something wrong, it can only be said that his own strength is too weak.

If he had strong strength, he would not fall into such a choice.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen picked up his sword, returned to the deck, and started his practice.

Since you are weak, you should practice harder. As long as you can defeat the enemy in an instant, all problems will no longer be a problem.

Elvis stood in the distance, watching Gu Chen who was practicing hard, and fell into deep thought.

He thought of his childhood past, when he massacred innocent people for so-called justice.
