One Piece: My Spirit

It seemed that Iska's knots in his heart during this period of time had finally been untied, and his mood and vision suddenly became much brighter. He no longer had to be entangled and confused about the previous incident, and he also found his true justice from Charles' words.

Charles also suddenly noticed that some kind of change seemed to have taken place in Iska, as if the confusion in his eyes had disappeared, and there was a trace of firm belief that he had never had before.

Iska touched his burned left hand, thought for a while, and finally said the matter: "Major Shire, in fact, the burn scar on my hand is not caused by Ace, but because of a disaster that happened when I was a child."

The village where Iska lived when he was a child was attacked and set on fire by pirates, and Iska’s parents died in the fire, and the young Iska was also trapped in it. Fortunately, the last navy rescued Iska who was in the fire, and the burn scars on his hands were also left at that time.

It's just that Shire found that Iska's face was full of bitterness when he talked about this matter: "I have always regarded the navy who saved my life as a benefactor, and because of this opportunity, I have always yearned for and believed in justice. That's why I became a navy. I wanted to be like the navy who saved my life and save others. But... I didn't know until not long ago that all of this is false."

Lieutenant Admiral Doro was Iska's previous officer and the navy who saved the young Iska.

And this incident involved Ace’s refusal of the world government to become the “Qibukai” a few months ago. At that time, it was Iska and Lieutenant General Doro who went to the Chambord Islands to negotiate with Ace. After Ace refused to become the “Qibukai”, Lieutenant General Doro seemed very happy because he always looked at the pirates. Then he started to attack Ace.

Lieutenant General Dolo's weapon is a huge flamethrower that looks like a rocket launcher on his arms. The place where he was at that time was a slum with many flammable debris and wooden buildings.
Lieutenant General Dolo will attack Ace regardless of the lives of these children, vowing to destroy Ace here. In his eyes, some sacrifices are necessary to eliminate pirates.

On the contrary, Ace desperately stopped Lieutenant General Dolo, and let Deus and Iska rescue the child trapped in the sea of ​​fire!

And Ace also angrily reprimanded Lieutenant General Dorothy for involving innocent children in this way, but Lieutenant General Dorothy roared:

"I didn't get these kids involved, it was you who got these kids involved! Fire Fist Ace!"

"It is because of the existence of pirates that the world has become like this! Fire Fist Ace, it is because of your existence that these children are injured! It is not me, but you pirates!

You shouldn't be living in this world at all, as long as you pirates are still alive, many innocent people will live in fear because of your injuries!understand?Everything is your fault! "

And Lieutenant General Dolo's words pierced deeply into Ace's heart, because this has always been the pain that Ace is most unwilling to face deep in his heart!his father.
Iska also looked at Lieutenant General Dolo with disbelief, as if she couldn't believe that it was said by someone she respected.

At the same time, Iska's mind suddenly flashed the scene of the village being attacked and set ablaze by pirates when he was a child, and he looked at Lieutenant General Dolo with a trembling voice:

"Lieutenant General, it wasn't the pirates who set fire to the village, it was you, right?"

"Then there are my parents, my home."

Lieutenant General Dolo looked impatiently at Iska who had been speaking for Ace just now: "There will be sacrifices for justice, right? It's just a few civilians who died, as long as the pirates are wiped out, what a fuss is there!"

Iska's eyes couldn't help shedding big tears: "Obviously you saved me, why?"

"If there is an injured child falling in front of me, I will still save it. After all, I represent justice and am a partner of justice!"

Iska seemed to have collapsed in an instant, the truth that had been supporting her belief turned out to be like this!
In the eyes of Lieutenant General Dolo, it was just the sacrifice of a few people, but to Iska, it was the hometown where she was born and raised, those were her parents!

This is also the reason why Iska felt confused, and even despaired for a while!

In the final result, although Ace defeated Lieutenant General Doro, some scars have been left in Iska's heart and cannot be removed.

Ace also seemed to see Iska's pain, so he invited Iska to board the ship together, but in the end. Iska rejected Ace, because there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart, and she still wanted to believe in the navy for the last time, unwilling to accept that cruel fact.

That's why Iska came to the G2 branch and just happened to become Shire's adjutant, but she never mentioned this matter to anyone else, and this is the first time she has said it.

After hearing Iska's story, Ciel also remained silent, but at some point Marilou also came to Iska's side, and jumped into Iska's arms to comfort her.

"So now, Iscar, have you found the answer you want? Even if there are still many navies as extreme as Doro in the navy, and there are even navies that are corrupt and collude with the enemy to oppress the people, can you still accept it?"

Iska glanced at Marilou in his arms and nodded to Charles with a smile: "I will not become a person like Lieutenant General Dolo, I will prove his actions are wrong, and I will try my best to find a correct path. Just like what you said, major, true justice never flaunts its uniqueness. If you want to have justice, you must give up playing justice!"

"Haha Iska, you are almost exactly like a person I met in East China Sea. You two are really idealists."

Ciel found that both Dashiqi and Iska are very similar in one respect. They both hope to take the initiative to change the ugly world. Ciel is actually not very optimistic about these idealists, because most of them are immature idealists.

Immature idealists are self-righteous moral self-confidence, which is very similar to Lieutenant General Dolo in the mouth of Iska, and some even feel resentful and cynical towards the world, and paranoidly demand that others, like themselves, must have the "values ​​and principles" they think.

And Shire is not an idealist, if you want to say, Shire is more like a realist, paying more attention to the consideration of 'gains and losses, interests, appropriateness' and so on, but he will not be like those immature realists, excessively distorted, destroying morality and subverting common sense at will for personal benefit.

Of course, this does not prevent Ciel from appreciating idealists like Dashiqi and Iska. If possible, Ciel is also willing to guide them to have a more mature thinking mode, and hopes that one day they can bear fruits that are different from their own.
