I, Sakazuki, Will Not Take a Dog Easily

Hearing that the current marshal nodded, his point of view coincided with that of Sakalski: "The tyrants are nothing to worry about, and one of the five volleys is absent. Even [Samurai], the navy can mobilize enough combat power to deal with it." .”

"Just... one thing," Polusalino suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two of them a bit abruptly: "Countries like Wano have enough capital and resources to support them to enter the world government's franchise system , but on the site of the New World, there are still countless towns that cannot pay the membership fee and bear the heavy heavenly gold due to poverty."

He looked at Sakaski with piercing eyes, and paused every word: "These towns, which are useless to the Five Old Stars, are still under the jurisdiction of the Black Sail Alliance. Once our army captures them, the world will The government will not allow us to garrison troops . . . it's just costing them money."

"The navy has the final say on the garrison!" Kuzan responded decisively. He changed his indifferent attitude in the past, and his decisiveness surprised everyone who knew him: "Brother, As for the matter of protecting civilians and towns in the New World, I will not allow you to back down half a step on this matter alone."

Sakalski vaguely felt that Kuzan seemed to have changed after the war, and he didn't know what stimulated or touched him, but this change could not be seen clearly for a while.

Akainu, who is regarded as the master of the future helm of the navy, turned his head and looked at the location of the Holy Land Marie Gioia through the void, with contempt flashing in his eyes: "Of course, the navy has the final say on whether to garrison troops, but this is a matter of course. A [good reason]."

Talking about this matter, everyone added a bit more ambiguity to their words, and tacitly weighed the pros and cons in each other's obscure and flickering words.

This slob, who usually seemed to have no sense of existence, restrained the look of slack on his cheeks, revealing an unprecedented solemnity and persistence.

He straightened his back, looked around at the generals in the room, and finally turned his gaze to the Warring States Period: "I have been thinking about it, so that the images lingering in my mind make me terrified, make me toss and turn, sleepless and restless.

If, at that time, everyone did not act, but really wanted to give an innocent girl to the evil forces in exchange for greater benefits or less damage in the future..."

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. I was scared at the time. I was really scared." He paused for a moment, his voice trembling a little. No one expected that such words would come from the mouth of the world-famous admiral of the Navy headquarters.

"I'm afraid that the beliefs I've worked so hard to hold on to for years will become twisted and corrupted and shaken.

Fear of seeing companions gradually become strangers. "

Sakaski was silent, he vaguely guessed what Kuzan was going to say in his heart.

The "trolley problem" is one of the most famous thought experiments in the field of ethics, and it is also an unsolvable moral problem.

If flipping the lever to change the train's course saves five people, it will inevitably cause an innocent person on the other track to be crushed to death.

If you don't want your hands to be stained with blood, you can only sit back and watch the five people die.

Exchanging the lives of a few people for the survival of the many people, if we really want to say, the too tough Sakasky in the original book is very similar to Emiya Kiritsugu.

In order to achieve the justice they firmly believe in, they can do whatever they can, and only demand to become the most accurate balance. In their eyes, only two questions are needed to measure a person's life and death.

[Should this person be killed? ] and [kill this person, how many people can I save? 】

The red dog who pursues absolute justice can choose to destroy the refuge ship full of civilians without hesitation in order to prevent scholars from getting mixed in. He would rather kill a thousand by mistake and not let one go. The ruthlessness stems from his belief that this will involve ancient weapons. The complete obliteration of information can save more people from the flames of war.

Kokuzan is different.

Sakalski knows all too well that, for a long time, much of Kuzan's lethargy and fishing was just an outward expression of his inner struggle.

This guy said that the motto of being a navy is "leisurely justice", but long-term distress and confusion made him choose a temporary substitute, which is the so-called "leisurely justice" - that "justice" is different in different positions People will have different opinions and will change with positions.

In the original book, Kuzan’s final departure was not only caused by the disagreement between Kuzan and Sakasky, but also because this guy who had been confused was trying to explore the way justice should be done from different angles. exist.

And now, Sakalski finally understood what the change he had faintly noticed in Kuzan was.

【Have you finally found your own path to go on firmly? 】

Kuzan's eyes became brighter, and the confusion that had lingered in his eyes for a long time was swept away: "On the battlefield, the smallest battle damage is exchanged for the greatest victory. As a military governor, I believe that you have not wrong."

Sakasky gave him a demonstration in person, once in the Corridor of Ashes, and once...on Murloc Island.

"It's like, senior brother, you stood alone in front of Whitebeard on Murloc Island.

Even if only one citizen fails to escape the danger, I believe there will be a thousand... no, ten thousand, or even more sailors will resolutely stand between the pirates and innocent civilians even if they know they are going to die. "

The sleepy-eyed man smiled sarcasticly at Sakalski: "This...is the meaning of our military existence."

Kuzan, who made the final conclusion, tilted his head:

"As long as the safety of civilians is involved, I, Kuzan, will never give in. Even if the person who made this decision to back down is the future Marshal of the Navy Headquarters, I will stand against him without hesitation."

But he never expected that the four "old fathers" all sighed with relief:

"Kuzan, you've grown up."

I don't know what Sakalski thought of. He thoughtfully asked his junior who had just delivered an inspirational speech: "We have heard your insistence, but what are you willing to pay for it?"

In order to implement this decisive belief, Kuzan's expression became more determined, and he said in a deep voice:

"everything.

Even if I am facing you, Senior Brother, I will choose to fight you in a dignified manner!"

But before the words fell, he was stunned.

I saw that bastard whom he advertised as a role model in his heart was eagerly chanting and repeating the three words "fight", as if he hadn't heard the premise and foreshadowing of Kuzan's harsh words at all.

Kuzan dared to swear that this was the first time in his life that he saw senior brother Sakaski showing an ecstatic expression.

537. A Song of Ice and Fire (Part 1)

Dazed and at a loss, this is the truest inner portrayal of Kuzan at this moment.

Why did it become like this?

Why is this bastard so skilled?

He obviously just wanted to expound his ideas and positions on justice in front of everyone!

How did it turn into a sudden high-intensity fight? very tired...

The guy who took it out of context without authorization still had a happy look of "finally getting a fight" on his face.

"I've never hated reckless people so much...really, especially the ones who are super-powerful and don't listen well to others." Ku Zanxu narrowed his eyes, and groaned at the [Tie Hanhan] who was gearing up sighed.

It's a pity that the object of his complaints is obviously not the kind of person who gives up lightly on the goal he believes.

"The old man can fully understand your hatred,"

Sakaski nodded, and loudly agreed with deep understanding: "Mr. Karp is really annoying!"

To speak without knowing one's self

, Kuzan was even more distraught.

He seldom got into an argument, and knocked the mahjong table loudly: "I mean you!! Mr. Karp would be that kind of reckless... reckless man..uh!?.."

Kuzan, who had worked under Karp for a long time, hesitated for a long time, and suddenly felt that this word was used to describe Karp from a certain point of view. . .

"He's such a reckless guy..." Recalling Uncle Garp's so-called domineering quick response training, Kuzan still felt a dull pain in his head.

Your Excellency, the persuasive commander of the expeditionary army, tried to put the entry point on Kuzan's side. He slowly restrained the joy that bloomed on his cheeks, and his expression became calm and solemn.
