"Sauro...?"

Kuzan, who wanted to hang out on this island that was about to be destroyed, found his friend Lieutenant General Sauro on the east coast of Ohara Island. This big man who always smiled gently

, he was sitting on the beach at this time, facing the sea lonely.

"It's you, Kuzan...are you also here to carry out the demon-slaying order?"

Sauro turned his head, his expression still one of loneliness, rather than joy of seeing his friend.

"Well... you really did something wrong this time," Kuzan sighed, "standing in front of the World Government and the Navy, you know what the consequences will be, right?"

"Ah, I know everything...so please escort me back, Kuzan."

"Aren't you going to run away, Sauro?"

"Rather than running away, I want to ask you a question now, Kuzan. You are stronger than me, and you are a better sailor than me. You must know the answer to this question, right?"

Kuzan looked at his old friend with a serious expression, full of doubts in his heart. He nodded slightly:

"Say it, Sauro."

"The reason why I left the Navy was because I felt that the Navy's actions had deviated from the justice in my heart, but... after a conversation with Major General Porusalino, I began to doubt my previous judgment again...

Are our navy just? Are our actions truly just?"

Kuzan was silent for a moment, and then said firmly, as if answering himself:

"There has never been absolute and true justice, Sauro. What we call justice is outright evil in the eyes of some people... Just like the launch of the Demon-Slaying Order, it is to maintain the rule of the world government and the world

It benefits more people, but it does harm O'Hara.

The interests of the masses and the scholars here... This is not a problem that we can solve, nor is it a problem that anyone can solve. We just need to ensure our own behavior, and have a clear conscience when we make choices, and do what we should

What you do is nothing more than that.”

"……Yeah?"

"Um,"

Kuzan nodded, "That's right."

"I understand... arrest me, Kuzan!"

Kuzan took a deep look at his old friend Sauro, and then subconsciously prepared to activate his abilities, but——

"kindness?"

Kuzan was stunned for a moment, and then his body tensed up. Half of his body had already entered the elemental state, and even his breath turned into cold air that could freeze everything.

"call!"

Just on this small beach, the strong wind began to blow and fell from the sky.

"boom!"

Like a hurricane that only forms on the roughest seas in the New World, the sudden strong wind blows away everything around it.

"What the hell is this-!!"

Huge trees were blown up by their roots, and huge rocks were swept into the sky together with countless seawater cement and sand. Even Sauro, who is a giant and is as big as a battleship, was also blown away at this moment.

I could only lower myself down and clasp my hands firmly into the ground to avoid being blown away.

Kuzan, on the other hand, activated his fruit ability and used ice to completely freeze himself and the ground, forming one body. He looked with a serious face at the man wearing a dark green cloak who appeared after the strong wind gradually disappeared.

The other party spoke like this:

"Colonel of the Navy Headquarters, Kuzan, one of the three natural monsters with the frozen fruit ability, I'm sorry, but can I take away your friend, the Lieutenant General of the Giant Tribe? This is something my wife and my friend share.

Please..."

Kuzan's face became extremely ugly. He had already recognized the identity of this uninvited guest:

"The former commander of the Chambord Islands base and former rear admiral Monkey D. Long, who was confirmed to have defected to the navy because he had lost contact with the headquarters for a long time, why is a guy like you in O'Hara?!"

…

"You are the one who wants to see me?"

Under the Tree of Omniscient, Spangdine, who was heavily protected by agents in black suits, licked his nostrils and looked impatiently at the trembling middle-aged couple in front of him.

"Yes, yes, sir! I...we have information about a hidden scholar on this island!"

The husband was relatively more courageous. Although he still did not dare to raise his head completely, he still stammered to finish the sentence.

All the scholars, including Dr. Baroque, showed angry expressions, while Olvia gritted her teeth and looked at the couple, her eyes of hatred as if they could cut them into pieces.

Little Robin's face was full of horror, and in addition to fear and disgust, the eyes he looked at the couple were full of disbelief.

"Oh? Are you talking about hiding information about scholars? Tell me, if it is true, I will reward you heavily! If it is false... humph! Just die on this island with these scholars!"

Spangdine flicked his boogers away casually, with a look of disapproval on his face - in his opinion, although his subordinates usually did not agree with him in many ways, after all, the world government spent a lot of money and

Elite agents trained by material resources. And what the elite agents of the government have repeatedly confirmed, can you two civilians tell you whether it is a flower?

Hearing the words "lots of rewards" from Spangdyne's mouth, both the couple showed excitement and greed. For a moment, their backs straightened up, and their courage seemed to become much bigger——

The reason why they came here specifically to find Spangdine at such a dangerous juncture was because of the possible huge reward and the complete separation of ties with that little monster?

"S-Sir!"

The husband's mouth was dry, as if he had seen wealth waving to him, "The hidden scholar is a little monster staying in my house, my sister's daughter...She, she can conjure two hands! And every day

Run to these scholars! I heard these people say that she is also one of them, the youngest scholar in O'Hara!! My lord! She is also a criminal!!!"

After talking about it, the husband's tone couldn't help but become excited, and his face turned red.

His wife seemed to feel that her husband had not said enough, and quickly added: "Yes, sir! That little monster is bad. I would say she must be a born criminal! Of course! Although our family allows her to stay overnight, we and

She didn’t have any communication at all, she... big, my lord! It’s her! It’s her!! That guy who looks like a monkey is holding the hand, that’s the little monster!!!”

The woman suddenly screamed and pointed her index finger in the direction of Porusalino and Robin.

"..."

The woman's voice fell behind, and a strange silence enveloped everyone present - the scene that the couple expected that Spandine would order the arrest or death of Porusalino and Robin did not happen. Instead,

Spangdain, who had high hopes from them, turned extremely ugly and glared at them fiercely as if he wanted to kill someone:

"...you...these two! Stupid things!!"

Spangdine roared, kicked the woman to the ground with a flying kick, and the man was still stunned, Spandain slapped him over again with a backhand.

"S-Sir! I, we are both telling the truth! Your Majesty!!!"

The woman held her stomach and cried out in pain.

"Shut the fuck up!!!"

Cold sweat broke out on Spangdine's forehead. At this moment, he neatly took out his gun like an agent and pointed it at the woman, "Do you know what nonsense you are talking about?!"

"...Sir, sir?"

The couple obviously still didn't understand the situation.

"Don't shoot, Spangdine,"

Porusalino finally spoke with a smile at this time, "As representatives of the World Government, how can we shoot civilians so easily? What's more, these two still want to provide us with information about criminals..."

"Okay, my lord!"

Spandain hurriedly put down the gun, and the stone in his heart dropped a little because of Porusalino's smiling expression - after all, what he cared about was not the life or death of these two people, nor what they said, nor what they said.

It’s not whether the Robin being led by Porusalino is a scholar, but whether the Porosalino they identified is angry!

Moreover, let alone Spandaine not believing what they said at all, even if he did, he would try his best to pretend not to believe it - the little girl and Porusalino were very close at first sight, and in front of Polu Salino

The face of Salino identified the little girl as a criminal, and Spangdine believed that he had not lived enough.

Seeing that Porusalino's casual words made Spangdine, who seemed to be the leader, put down his gun, the couple finally understood who was the biggest boss among the people present.

The wife's body trembled because of fear, and the husband hurriedly pulled her to her knees:

"Sir! She offended you, please don't care!! But what my wife said is true! That little girl is really a monster!! My lord!!!"

The smile on Porusalino's face became even brighter - it is said that people will not die if they don't do something. He finally met the leader of them today.

"Oh? Really? Is it true that she is a scholar criminal?"

"Yes, yes! Sir! Even if you give us ten thousand courages, we won't dare to tell lies! Sir!"

Porusalino smiled and ignored the couple. Instead, he touched little Robin's head and said as softly as possible:

"Little Robin, can you show us your ability? It's the ability to create another pair of hands... Let's use this woman... Don't be afraid, I promise you will be fine."

After saying that, Porusalino winked at little Robin.

Robin hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to believe Porusalino, nodded slightly and crossed his trembling hands on his chest.

Along with some flying petals, the woman who was kneeling on the ground suddenly found a pair of small hands growing out of her shoulders, and she screamed in fright.

"Weird! Monster!! Sir... Sir! This little guy is a monster!! Did you see it!!!"

Upon seeing this, Porusalino nodded with satisfaction: "It can be lifted, Robin."
