Chapter 39 Patrolling the sea and encountering pirates

Looking at the scholars who were taken away by the soldiers, all of them looked like they were willing to die generously, Jon shook his head repeatedly.

This group of people fully demonstrated two qualities.

The first is, if you don't want to die, you won't die; the second is, for the sake of ideals and goals, you will not regret it even if you die.

Not to mention contempt and respect, Jon just couldn't agree with their ideas and practices.

In his opinion, before you have no strength, the best way is to live in obscurity. When you have enough strength, you can talk about ideals, goals, etc.

But that’s how human beings are. Everyone has different ideas and chooses different paths.

He felt that they were seeking death, and perhaps they also felt that he was pathetic. From different angles, they saw different things.

Jon sighed slightly. He felt that he had more emotions today than in the past few years combined.

Pemberton took those people to handover with the CP9 people. Jon did not go there. He already knew what would happen to those people. Although he would not feel guilty, he still did not want to see it with his own eyes.

When he came back after dealing with all this, Pemberton said to Jon depressedly: "Jon, it looks like we have to stay on this island for two days."

"What's wrong?" Jon asked in surprise.

"Some of those archaeologists escaped by boat. Lieutenant General Nowell led a large force to pursue them. Those who stayed behind told us that the surrounding branches have been notified and warships will be sent over to allow us to return to our headquarters. .”

"I see."

Jon was not surprised. Many of those scholars were smart, and it was normal for them to be able to escape partially. However, Lieutenant General Nowell did not wait for them and went straight to pursue them. It seemed that it was the guy from Spangdyne who urged him. .

But that's fine. It would be easy for them to drive back after a warship arrives in two days.

"Then just wait."

This lasted for three days. Jon, who had nothing to do, followed Pemberton around the towns on the island.

Although the navy arrested archaeologists before, it obviously did not affect the residents of this island. They still live how they want.

At dusk on the third day, Jon and the others finally arrived at the warship from the G6 branch of the Navy.

It is strange to say that there were originally five teams chasing the archaeologists, but in the end, only Jon and his team were caught. The other archaeological teams all escaped.

So in the end, only a group of them stayed on the island, and the rest either pursued them on warships or other ships.

"Hello, Second Lieutenant Jon, I am Major Matt from the G6 branch. While we were cruising, we received an order from the headquarters to transport you to the headquarters."

This is a cruise ship from the G6 branch. Because it is the closest to here, it was sent to pick up Jon and his team.

"Major Matt."

Jon and the others all saluted respectfully. The naval branch of the Grand Line, whose name starts with G, has the same military rank as the headquarters. Major Matt is several ranks higher than them, so saluting is inevitable.

"You don't have to be like this, Second Lieutenant Jon. I already understand your situation. If you start from here, it will take about four days at the fastest to reach the headquarters. However, Lieutenant General Nowell said that you are not forced to return to the headquarters immediately. , it just so happens that our cruiser still needs a few days to complete the handover, don’t you know?”

Matt is not domineering just because of his high military rank. He has a very sharp eye.

He only reached the rank of major when he was in his thirties, but this second lieutenant Jon was already a second lieutenant in the headquarters at a young age, and he was affiliated with the staff department. Although the rank is lower than him now, in a few years, he will be a second lieutenant. He is a big shot that he all looks up to.

In this case, Matt certainly would not show off and point fingers at a promising Navy supernova.

"No problem, Major Matt. You're too polite. It's us who are causing you trouble. Of course, your mission is the first priority. We will complete the mission with you and then return to our base."

In order to maintain the tranquility of the great shipping route, both the Navy Headquarters and the Navy Branch will send cruise ships to patrol the sea.

It is not only to protect the residents of various islands and seas and eradicate pirates, but also to improve the reputation of the navy.

After all, the Grand Line is so big. If your navy stays at the base all the time, no one will remember you.

Only by frequently appearing in the public's sight, and appearing in a righteous manner, fighting pirates, etc., can we be more convincing to the people and expand the momentum and prestige of the navy.

"Thank you very much, Lieutenant Jon, please come on board."

There were more than fifty people in Jon's group. The cruiser was not the previous large warship. It was slightly smaller. After they boarded, it seemed slightly crowded, but it did not affect the navigation and no one cared about anything.

In a few days, Jon has already gained the respect of the fifty men under his command. This time, they did not contribute much, but Jon led them to achieve great achievements. For these first-class and second-class soldiers, maybe after returning, can be upgraded.

Under such circumstances, they were naturally grateful to Jon. Many of them even secretly approached Jon, hoping to follow him and become soldiers or something like that.

Regarding this, Jon smiled bitterly. If he wanted to have a private army, he had to reach the level of a general. He was just a second lieutenant now, and these people really looked up to him.

But Jon naturally won't reveal anything. Although forming cliques is not a taboo in the navy, he is just a second lieutenant now, so it's better to keep a low profile.

Following Major Matt and their cruiser, Jon and the others sailed leisurely on the sea.

Jon also discovered that Major Matt and his crew were directional in their navigation. They sailed by recording pointers, and they explored the islands one by one in an orderly manner. Once there were no problems, they would leave, which was quite efficient.

A few days later, when they came to another island, they received bad news from the island residents.

Not long ago, a pirate group appeared on this island, burning, killing and looting on the island. It has been several days and they still have not left.

After seeing the navy appear, the residents of the island asked the navy to destroy the pirate group and restore peace to their island.

The navy, which is responsible for its responsibilities, will certainly not stand idly by when encountering such a thing.

Major Matt immediately made a decision to take people to the island to find the pirate group and wipe them out.

Jon, who had been sailing for a few days, heard about such a thing and immediately asked Major Matt to take them along.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Lieutenant Jon."

Of course, Matt would not refuse. After getting along with him for a few days, he already knew the extraordinary qualities of Lieutenant Jon.

General Zefa's first-term top student, Devil Fruit ability user, and new member of the staff. Although his rank is still relatively low, his strength may have surpassed him.

With the help of such a naval supernova, Matt readily accepted it. After all, he still didn't know the specific situation of the pirate group on the island. With the help of Jon and the others, he would be more confident.

A group of naval forces, totaling more than a hundred people, quickly landed on the island and headed in the direction mentioned by the island residents.
