Under the eaves on both sides of the village road.

The villagers stared blankly at the body parts scattered all over the ground.

They first took a step back subconsciously, and then seemed to understand something.

Their numb pupils, like a mirror wiped off the mist, flashed with the light of hope.

They stared at Kuina excitedly passing by the corpse, not daring to make a sound.

They were afraid.

They were afraid that everything in front of them was a dream.

This scene in front of them had appeared in their dreams countless times. Every time they woke up excitedly, and then found disappointed that everything was fake.

This time, they knew clearly that this was not a dream, but they still did not dare to easily break the silence around them.

Looking at Kuina walking over, Ajian was forced to step back subconsciously by the murderous aura left on Kuina.

Then he suddenly realized that the person in front of him was not a fishman but a benefactor, and he did not need to be afraid. He shook his head and stared at Kuina excitedly.

Looking at Kuina approaching, Kota's eyes flashed with tenderness, and he stretched out his right hand to wipe off the drop of blood that she accidentally splashed on his face just now.

""Guina, now you are really a hero!"

At this time, the indifferent expression on Guina's face disappeared, revealing a smile like a blooming flower.

This smile not only illuminated Ajian's desperate heart, but also the hearts of the surrounding villagers. Only then did they wake up from their dreams.

Six whole years!...

Although it was only six years, it was not very long.

But the days were like years!

In these six years, countless families and countless people died at the hands of these brutal fishmen.

And now, they finally waited for someone, a heroic person.

She killed the fishmen as easily as killing fish on the chopping board.

They have been waiting for this moment for too long.

Ajian stared at Guina, trembling all over, and an unimaginable excitement surged in his heart.

"You... who are you?"

"Us!……"

Kota held Kuina's hand and looked up at the excited eyes of the surrounding villagers.

"You can call us, partners of justice"

"justice?"

"Justice?"

They didn't feel justice from the navy, but they felt it from two strangers.

When they came to their senses, Kota and Kuina had already walked out of the village.

They looked at Kota and Kuina from a distance, their eyes filled with the flame of hope, and shouted loudly in unison.

"Please, we must defeat the Arlong Pirates!"

"Partners of Justice……"

Their excitement could be felt from afar.

It was an emotion and impulse that had been suppressed for a long time, and then suddenly erupted like a volcano, releasing it.

Kota and Kuina, who were in the middle of it, felt an unprecedented spiritual pleasure.

Kuina squinted her eyes in enjoyment. This feeling of being expected by so many people was fascinating. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who wanted to be heroes.

Then she opened her eyes, turned around, and said solemnly to the villagers who were looking forward to it.

"Don't worry! We will kill all the Arlong Pirates at the risk of our lives."

The voice was not loud, but it rang clearly in the ears of every villager.

The villagers stood for a long time, looking at the two figures heading towards the Arlong territory in the distance.

They remembered the two boys and girls deeply.

Especially the girl.

Her beauty, her indifference and calmness when she killed the fishmen, and the smile that shone into their hearts at the end.

They prayed, prayed that the girl could slay the dragon successfully, and prayed that she would not be hurt.

Even if they did not succeed in slaying the dragon in the end.

They did not want to accept the oppression of the Arlong Pirates anymore.

Because the fishmen corpses all over the ground clearly told them that the fishmen were not so invincible.

This made the anger and shackles in their hearts completely open.

……

On the way to Arlong Paradise, Kuina kept her head down, looking like she was worried.

Kota looked at Kuina with concern and asked,"What's wrong? Kuina"

"Nothing, just some things I can't figure out"

"What's going on? Tell me."

"When I first walked into the village, I could clearly feel the fear and numbness of the villagers."

"That kind of numbness is not formed overnight, it must be the result of being oppressed for a long time."

Kuina raised her head and stared at Kota in confusion and asked

"But I can't figure it out"

"The East China Sea is big, but it is also small. How could a pirate group be allowed to keep humans like animals in human territory for six years?"

She frowned slightly, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes, and asked loudly

""Where are the navy? Where are the righteous navy?"

Kota raised his hand and rubbed her head, looking at the distant Along Paradise, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he spoke faintly.

"Don't think the high-ranking officers of the navy are too righteous. Most of their justice is directed towards the nobles, but the common people don't care that much."

"The people who care about civilians the most are usually the navy soldiers, who are at the bottom of the society and are the most numerous."

"But they have neither the right nor the power to control these powerful pirates."

"So that's how it is!"

Kuina nodded, revealing an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"What about the navy hero Garp! We grew up listening to his legend. Why didn't he come when such a nasty pirate appeared in our hometown?"

Kuina asked angrily.

There are few people in the East China Sea who don't admire Garp. After all, he is one of their own family, and he is also known as a hero.

He is indeed the pride of most civilians and the navy.

But heroes also have times when they are too busy.

Heroes must also abide by the rules, the rules of the Celestial Dragons and the World Government.

So don't think that Garp is a hero. In fact, this guy is not so free.

The New World needs him, the Navy Headquarters needs him, and when powerful pirates appear, he is still needed.

This guy was so busy that he even handed his grandsons to bandits, causing his two grandsons to become pirates in the end.

Of course, with Ace and Luffy's personalities, even if Garp led them personally, they might become pirates.

So being a hero is not that easy.

If Garp hadn't refused to be promoted to admiral, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have the time to go home and see his grandsons once a year.

But Kota didn't explain this to Kuina. He just said lightly

"Maybe he just doesn't know! After all, he can go back to Donghai often, right?"

"and……!"

"What?"

"I also heard that the Dragon Pirates are colluding with the Marine Captain"Rat" of the 16th Marine Branch nearby."

"This way, the navies in other naval bases in the East China Sea who truly have justice in their hearts will not get the news here, and thus will not be able to come to attack the Dragon Pirates."

Hearing this, Kuina's eyes flashed with coldness. She gritted her teeth and said angrily

"Damn that colonel called Mouse.

Sometimes the enemies in plain sight are not that scary. What is scary is the people who help the enemies, commonly known as traitors.

These people are often more brutal and hateful than the enemies.

They are a group of spineless people who bully the weak and fear the strong. They flatter their superiors and act arrogantly to their subordinates.

"Um!"

"Don't worry! None of them can escape."

Korata's eyes flashed red, and he had sensed that there were two groups of people in Along Paradise.

And judging from their aura, they didn't look like enemies.

So they could only be allies.

So the mouse guy should be in Along Paradise now.
