Pirates: Invincible At The Beginning

The Grand Line is directly under the responsibility of Naval Headquarters, but because the Grand Line is too large, Marine has set up branches at each stage of the Grand Line.

These branches are directly under the headquarters, all start with g, and the head of the branch base is Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral.

These branches are not comparable to the branches of the Four Seas. Basically, every branch is a military fortress.

If the branch of the Four Seas can still be occupied by pirates, then the branch of the Grand Line is simply impossible.

On the Grand Line, the Marine branch not only has the Vice Admiral, the high-end Marine headquarters, but also comes standard with dozens of warships.

There are countless cannons.

As long as it's not heaven-defying, attacking from the air, ordinary pirates don't even think about rushing into the Marine branch base in their dreams.

At this time, in the G10 branch near Bass Island, as a burst of alarm bells sounded, the entire base was suddenly brightly lit, and countless searchlights kept shooting up and down.

And those Marine soldiers who just fell asleep got up quickly, without even yawning.

After a few strokes, he put on his military uniform and rushed out of the dormitory. Following the shout of the officer at the door, he equipped weapons in the weapon room next to him and rushed to the pier.

In the base chief's office, smoky, an old man with white hair and beard, resting his left hand on the table, holding a cigar in his right hand, letting the cigar burn without smoking.

This old man is the base chief of the g10 branch, "Merason", who has defeated and captured countless pirates. He is a figure of the same period as Garp, Sengoku and others.

Melason frowned, his eyes were low, and he stared at the phone bug on the desktop in a daze.

The noise in the base at this moment is the emergency mobilization they just received the order from the World government.

After thinking for a while, he still took the phone bug.

"Three years ago, is there finally a conclusion?"

He flicked the joystick of the phone bug for a moment, and then shook it quickly.

Naval Headquarters "Marineford".

It was midnight in the Marshal's office, and the lights were on.

The entire office was silent.

Sengoku, wearing the uniform of a marshal, frowned and leaned back in a chair.

On the desk in front of him, there was also a phone bug.

Obviously he was waiting for something.

Just then, the phone bug rang.

"Blu Bru!! Bru Bru..."

Sengoku froze for a moment, then fixed his eyes, quickly sat up straight, and picked up the receiver on the phone bug.

"Naval Headquarters, Sengoku."

"Sengoku-san."

A rather tired voice came from the phone bug, not physically tired, but mentally exhausted.

Sengoku's pupils shrank when he heard the sound.

"Melason, you haven't called me that for many years!"

"yes!"

In the g10 branch, Melason looked at the phone bug with reminiscence in his eyes.

"I still remember the days when we were in the academy together, decades have passed in a flash."

"I've changed, you've changed, 'Crane' has changed,..."

Then he seemed to think of something, and suddenly smiled.

"That bastard Garp is still the same."

"Garp?"

"Hmm! Only that old boy can always look like that! Haha!"

Then Sengoku's face turned serious, and he said, "In the middle of the night, you didn't come here specifically to talk about these memories, did you?"

"We will all retire in a few years, and we have plenty of time to talk slowly."

"Talk slowly?"

Mellason raised his right hand, took a deep breath of the cigarette, and slowly opened his mouth, letting the shreds of tobacco float out from the corner of his mouth.

"Remember, my justice is upholding?"

"How could it be forgotten!"

"Your justice is to protect civilians!"

"Yes!...to protect the civilians."

Melason sighed, "But me! Three years ago, I attacked a country that has no crime at all!"

"just because……"

He squeezed the microphone's hand so tightly that it almost exploded.

"Just because of a Celestial Dragons farce."

"Merason..."

Melason looked up suddenly, staring into the phone bug's eyes.

"Hear me out."

"Okay, okay, you say, you say."

"Because of a Celestial Dragons farce, I have been dishonored to the concept of justice that I have adhered to for decades."

He took a deep puff on the cigar, holding the smoke in his lungs, as if it would make him feel better.

"Although the name I received at the time was to take Marine to assist the cp0 organization."

"And I didn't do it at all."

"But if it weren't for me, if it weren't for the warship I was sitting on, the Kingdom of Bath would never have been breached so easily."

"And... today, three years later, the same name is actually asked to stop me, the king of the Kingdom of Bath, which was destroyed three years ago."

As he said that, his face completely sank, "Could it be that a farce, three years, three years is not enough?"

"Sengoku."

"Ok!"

"Could it be that the purpose of our Marine is to wipe the ass of the world's nobles?"

"..."

Motoku, Sengoku watched the phone bug silently.

This problem, he knows, Melason knows, the whole Marine knows.

But no one will answer.

He took a deep breath and said in a serious tone: "Merason, I ask you as the Marshal of Naval Headquarters, what are we?"

"Marine."

"Yes, we are Marine, a Marine directly under the World government."

"If we want to strengthen the justice in our hearts, we must first obey the bounden duty of soldiers."

"Obey the naming."

"If we can't do this, we are ashamed of the military uniform we are wearing."

"And what is Marine's vocation."

"Fighting pirates, we don't need to take care of other things, and we shouldn't take care of them. We just do our own job well."

Sengoku pulled into the phone bug, lowered his head, his eyes flashed, "But we are friends again, and for the justice that friends insist on, I can only say..."

"Whether it's the World Government, Celestial Dragons, or Naval Headquarters, you don't need to bother. As long as you are still on the side of justice, I will support you in any decision you make."

"That's all for you to think about."

After finishing speaking, Sengoku hung up the phone, leaned back on the chair, his whole body softened, and his appearance, during this leaning effort, seemed to have aged instantly.

"Fool."

Sengoku lowered his head, frowning, his face darkened.

There are some things that he, the marshal, can't do anything about.

Who told him to have a boss too!

In the past few years he has been a marshal, there are many things similar to the Kingdom of Bath.

When he was Admiral before, the previous Marshal directly asked about these matters, and they just carried out the naming, and sometimes they didn’t know the reason, even afterward.

But when he became the marshal, it was his turn to handle such matters, and some orders were issued by him himself.

Did he want to issue such an order?

I don't want to!

However, he has no reason and no strength to resist the orders directly issued by the World government.

Because the entire Marine system is attached to the World government system, if it weren't for the money from the World government, what would Marine use to uphold justice?

All he can do is to do his own job well, and to strengthen his own concept of justice, and fight more pirates.

As for matters between the country and the World government, he... Marine, can't do anything.

In the G10 branch, in the base chief's office, Melason hung up the phone, stared with firm eyes, took the justice cloak aside, and stood up.

"What is justice?"

"What is his justice?"

The justice that was shamed three years ago, he will pick it up himself this time.

Although the him three years ago just sailed the warship over, he did nothing.

But this kind of coercion by force is actually the real culprit for the destruction of the Kingdom of Bath.

It's hard for him to lie to himself.

As for the environment that the Kingdom of Bath has been in these past few years, he is also guilty.

This is why he is the same age as Garp Sengoku, but has gray hair.

And when the figure reappeared in his mind, he knew that everything in the Kingdom of Bath should be completely over this time.
