Pirate: I'm really not a Super Saiyan

After the battle with Roger's pirate group, the group finally got a short rest.

Fighting a big pirate like Roger right after arriving in the New World, even if there were no casualties, it was inevitable that the crew members were terrified.

After all, not everyone is a fighting enthusiast like Xia or Barrett.

Today is a rare sunny day.

Xia's injuries have healed. He seemed to have a lot of wounds, but except for his right arm, they were all superficial injuries. After a big meal, all of them were healed under the effect of Life Return.

The healed bones are even harder than before!

Barrett was in a much worse situation. His chest might be left with a permanent scar because of Rayleigh's attack, but Barrett didn't care about it. Instead, he thought it was not bad.

Scars are a man’s medal of honor!

After experiencing the war, Xia and Barrett now just want to have a good rest. They lie on the deck, one on the left and one on the right, basking in the rare sunshine.

"So, Long submitted his resignation to the headquarters a few days ago?"

Xia held up the Den Den Mushi and spoke to Kerry who was far away at the headquarters.

"Yes, that's what I heard."

Kerry hid in the tea room and spoke quietly.

It's working hours now, we can't let our boss catch us sneaking around!

“I heard that Vice Admiral Garp got really angry and argued with Major General Long for a long time, but in the end he failed to change Major General Long’s mind and he handed in his resignation.

Vice Admiral Garp, in disappointment, decided to go to the New World to continue chasing Roger to relax. "

While secretly eating the senbei in the tea room, Kerry revealed to Xia the news he had heard.

As the logistics manager of the meeting room of the Navy Headquarters, all the gossips in the entire headquarters cannot escape his ears!

"So has the headquarters approved it?"

Xia asked.

"Not yet. The marshals and generals are not quite in agreement on this matter and are still discussing it. After all, it's rare to see a general officer resign in a few years."

Xia asked Kerry again about how Zefa and Amy were doing recently, and after getting a positive answer, he hung up the phone.

Xia pondered for a while, climbed up from the recliner, went to an empty corner, and took out Long's phone number.

This is the private number that Long left for Xia after they had a good conversation last time. I don’t know if I can call it now.

"Dululu~"

After the telephone rang a few times, it was connected and a steady and powerful male voice came out.

"Is it Xia?"

"It's me, Dragon. How did you know it's mine?"

Xia asked curiously.

"I haven't given this number to many people. You're the only one who can call me at this time."

Long said on the other end.

Now, Long was wearing a black cloak and walking on the streets of the Sabaody Archipelago. The bustling street scenes and noisy crowds did not affect his mood at the moment. He walked with a heavy heart.

"I heard you resigned?"

Xia asked.

"Ah."

Long replied simply.

"As I told you before, there are some things you can't see when you're in them, and once you accidentally see them, it will become more and more painful."

Xia was silent for a while and suddenly asked.

"Where are you now?"

Long was stunned for a moment, hesitating whether he should tell Xia his location.

After thinking about it, he said as his trust in Xia outweighed his doubts.

"I'm on Island 3 in the Sabaody Archipelago now. What's going on?"

"Some things are not convenient to talk about over the phone. I'll come to you. Wait for me for a moment."

After Xia finished speaking, he hung up the phone, leaving Long on the other end stunned.

Xia walked back to the deck and said to Barrett.

"Barrett, I have to go out for something and will be back soon."

Barrett lay in the recliner, too lazy to move, and waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

Xia directly transformed into an element, turned into a flash of light, and flew into the sky!

The Chabaoti Archipelago is easy to find, as it is right below the Red Earth Continent.

Xia flew at full speed all the way and even took a long detour to avoid being seen.

A few hours later, they arrived safely at the Sabaody Archipelago and met the dragon that had been waiting for a long time on an uninhabited coast.

"dragon!"

Xia walked forward and shook fists with Long!

"Long time no see, Xia."

Long was also very happy to meet Xia, one of the few people who shared similar ideas with him and understood him.

I got rid of my gloomy mood and forced a little smile.

"how have you been?"

"It's hard to say whether it's good or bad. Anyway, as soon as we entered the new world, we had a fight with Roger and Rayleigh, hahahaha."

Xia said.

"But you, why did you suddenly resign? Did something happen to you?"

In front of him was Long, the future founder of the revolutionary army, leaving the navy at a critical historical juncture. Xia was eager to know what prompted Long to leave the navy!

For this purpose, he even expended a lot of physical energy and flew all the way from the New World!

The amount of physical strength consumed during this period is so extreme that few people in the entire pirate world can do it!

Long was silent for a moment, his joy at reuniting with Xia suddenly diluted, and then he spoke.

"Xia, there are some things I can't tell you in depth. After all, these are all my own observations, thoughts and feelings. Even if I tell you, you may not be able to empathize with me.

I just can’t stand it anymore!”

Long clenched his fists, venting the heavy grief in his heart, and looked at the sky in the distance.

"There are too many injustices and unfairnesses in this world. I used to think that the root cause of the world's collapse lies in the situation and people's hearts, but after experiencing so many things, I finally realized a truth."

Long turned around and looked at Xia and said.

"The root cause of this chaotic world lies with the Celestial Dragons."

Xia had anticipated Long's answer and nodded, signaling Long to continue.

"The current corrupt situation is not something the world government is unable to deal with.

No matter how powerful the pirates in the New World are, the navy with absolute military advantage and many strong men can suppress them!

No matter how arrogant the lawless nobles are, the people will not be afraid of them, and if they are pushed into a corner, they will revolt!

It's the Celestial Dragons! They are the ones who dominate the world and deliberately control the balance of the world!

The conflicts between the Celestial Dragons and others were transferred to the conflicts between pirates and the navy, and between nobles and civilians.

Under their deliberate guidance, it seems that all the evil in the world is attributed to the existence of pirates, and that those who oppress the people are only the nobles of their own country!

Little did they know that this was just a pretext used by the Celestial Dragons to divert attention!

They created a target called pirates for the navy, so that their justice would only be directed towards pirates!

They collected exorbitant amounts of money from each member state, forcing the nobles of each country to exploit their people.

All of this is to avoid being targeted by people of integrity and ambition all over the world, to maintain their superior status, to maintain the balance of the world, and to fool generation after generation for 800 years!"

The dragon became more and more angry, and his domineering aura overflowed uncontrollably!

“I really can’t stand it any longer!

I want to leave the navy and build an army that is willing to fight for the poor people!

Let people have the courage to not rely on the navy or the government to protect themselves! "
