The Pirate's Ultimate Swordsman, One Man is the Royal Group
Chapter 143 Past
It is not an exaggeration to say that Beehive Island is the home base of the New World pirate forces.
Now that it has fallen, Shiqi knows very well who did it.
Apart from Monkey D. Garp, with whom he has been dealing with for many years, the only other person was Arthur, who had just given him a warning.
……
Naval headquarters, Marinford waters.
The Gate of Justice slowly closed, and the warship led by Zefa returned from the G5 base to attend a secret meeting.
The warship soon arrived at the Naval Headquarters Naval Port.
He went to Steel Bone Sora's office alone.
In the town of Marinford.
"Corazon." Sakaski, who was about to attend a meeting, was strolling around the town and suddenly shouted to a young soldier patrolling the town streets.
The blond boy turned to look at him, a little surprised: "Vice Admiral Akainu...? Are you calling me?"
He pointed at himself and looked around, thinking he had heard it wrong.
"Corazon, come here for a moment."
"Oh, Lieutenant General..." Kras said goodbye to the patrol soldiers around him and went to Sakaski alone.
"Have you eaten?" Seeing him coming, Sakaski lowered the brim of his hat and greeted him in a cold tone.
"Ah?" Corazon was shocked. He didn't expect Akainu to call him like that.
Normally, he had no interaction with Sakaski.
"No, I'll take you to have a meal." Without waiting for Corazon to agree, Sakaski carried him to a nearby restaurant.
"Vice Admiral Akainu, have I done something wrong?!"
Corazon was shocked. How could Akainu, who was usually so aloof, be so proactive?
This made him very uncomfortable and he felt that the other party was acting out of character.
A few minutes later, in a hotel in the town of Marinford.
In front of a table filled with delicacies, Corazon picked up a large piece of rice and ate it in large chunks.
Sakaski on the side stared at him eating with an expressionless face.
There were no other guests in the hotel except the two of them.
"Well, Lieutenant General, how about you eat something too?"
"Just eat it, Corazon. How is General Sengoku feeling lately?" Sakaski asked intentionally.
Realizing that the other party had a purpose, Corazon released the Silence Fruit, creating a silent barrier at the dining table where the two of them were, blocking out the outside world.
“Hmm…” Sakaski looked up upon seeing this and said, “Not bad ability.”
Corazon put down his bowl and chopsticks, put his head back, smiled and said tactfully:
"Vice Admiral Akainu, if you have anything to ask me, you can just ask me directly. There's no need to be so polite. It feels weird that you're suddenly like this."
Sakaski was known as aloof in the navy and usually didn't interact with anyone.
Corazon felt strange that he suddenly became so polite.
"Then I said it, Corazon."
"Well, go ahead..."
Seeing that the other party didn't care, Sakaski's expression immediately returned to its natural indifference, and he asked seriously:
"About seven years ago, what do you know about the incident on Judicial Island?"
"This..." Corazon was shocked, not knowing that Akainu would ask this.
This is a secret that Zhan Guo mentioned, and it must not be told to anyone.
"You were there at the time, tell me what happened, what happened to Arthur."
"Vice Admiral Akainu, why... do you want to know this?" Corazon stared at Sakaski in great surprise.
"I suddenly became interested. I have always been focused on missions. I have never seen a general from the Warring States period who targeted one person for nearly ten years and did not let him go. He still had military merits... Arthur..."
With Roger's death and the surge in pirates in the new era, a plan that Sengoku had made two years ago had its answer a few days ago.
The news of the near destruction of Beehive Island has been reported back to the Navy by the surviving undercover agents.
All the generals and officers were informed of the news.
The top naval officers are discussing a secret mission, and the government is on the way to hunt down Arthur.
The root of all this is what Sakaski cares about now.
According to Navy rules, seriously injured soldiers, even those who are enlisted, can apply for retirement.
Arthur's story seemed to have started when he applied for retirement from the Warring States and returned from a failed mission.
In the hotel, Corazon was stunned for a long time and looked around.
There was no one else except the boss who was wiping plates in front of the bar.
Besides, since we are within the range of the Fruit of Silence, no one will notice us even if we talk.
"If I tell you, Lieutenant General, you won't tell anyone else, right?" Corazon asked, just in case.
"Don't worry, Corazon," Sakaski agreed.
Corazon took a deep breath and began to narrate:
"Everything Arthur has experienced over the years, all of this... is a conspiracy by the Warring States General to wipe him out..."
Hearing this, Sakaski frowned.
"When he took on the Jaltzburg mission, he was already in trouble. The crime of genocide was not his, but Barrett's."
"But... no one knows what happened during the voyage."
"We can only blame him for the loss of two elite agents and hundreds of marines in that mission based on extrapolation and fabrication."
"General Sengoku... also wanted to take advantage of this and imprison him, accusing him of various crimes, and then... use his power in the most cruel way to save him, trying to move Arthur and make him serve the navy for the rest of his life."
"But this failed... Arthur's mind was not what a 14-year-old boy should have at that time... He saw through it all and had to choose between loyalty and betrayal..."
"He made the choice that a normal person would make and betrayed his country... His tragic experience continues to this day."
After telling everything, Corazon unknowingly saw Sakaski clenching his fists.
The blood vessels on the back of the fist were tied up. The so-called truth turned out to be just to trap a monster genius, using a strategy that reflects the cruelty of human nature...
No one in the navy knew that Arthur no longer cared about the past.
"Lieutenant General...are you okay?" Corazon felt that Sakaski was a little angry and became worried.
The man in front of me, wearing a baseball uniform and a navy cap, would even kill friendly forces during a mission.
Everyone knows his current name.
"I'll pay for the meal, Corazon, thank you for your hard work." Sakaski got up from his chair, paid the bill, and left the restaurant.
"Oh... Thank you, Lieutenant General. I am very satisfied with the meal!"
Corazon reacted, released his ability, and hurriedly thanked him.
It is an honor to be associated with someone like Sakaski.
Outside the hotel, Sakaski stared solemnly at the cloud-covered sky.
"Maybe... the truth is no longer important now. We just have different positions and experiences..."
He walked towards the headquarters building with a blank expression on his face.
The coat of justice behind him fluttered in the wind, and the word "justice" on the coat would still be carried out by him throughout.
"You are the same as me... You have suppressed the past deep in your heart and become a person who cannot choose the path of life."
"Everyone only knows that we are indifferent to everything. Who will seriously understand our past?"
The impact of the Honeycomb Island incident is far greater than imagined.
This incident is continuing to ferment around the world.
