This Navy is Rude

A female voice entered Aokiji's ears.

"Yo, it's Miss Gion, I didn't expect you to come too."

"Look, you actually called me Miss Sister in public. Sure enough, you are not a serious person, are you?"

"Ah la la... don't pay attention to these details."

……

"Report to Marshal Kong, everything that should be here has arrived."

There are three people on the chair, Marshal Kong sitting in the middle, General Warring States and Major General Kong Ming (and staff officer) on both sides.

Chief Staff Officer Crane is currently unable to get away from the development of the Don Quixote family in Beihai, so he did not participate in the trial.

Major General Kong Ming, who was given temporary privileges, was mainly in charge of the interrogation process, and Kong and Zhanhui would make critical decisions at specific moments.

The jury is a group of lieutenant generals and major generals.

"Bring the defendant and plaintiff in."

Under Kong Ming's order, Ghost Spider, Hai Lan, and Jia Ji walked into the conference hall respectively—because Jia Ji participated in Ghost Spider's arrest plan, he is also the plaintiff.

Because there is no court-martial in the Navy Headquarters, compared with the real courts on Earth, it looks a bit nondescript everywhere.

As the defendant, the ghost spider didn't even have a defense lawyer, so he defended himself.

Ghost Spider's stern expression was full of arrogance, without a trace of the cowardice of the defendant, because he didn't think he had done anything wrong at all.

There are two kinds of bad guys in this world.

The first type of bad people, they know that what they are doing is bad, but for various purposes, such as desire, money, revenge...etc, they will do the "bad things" they know well.

The second type of bad people, they don't know what they did is bad, and they even think that everything they do is right. Even if they are brought to justice in the end, they still think that they have been wronged.

The ghost spider is the second type.

But Hai Lan would not forgive the ghost spider for this reason - because the results of these two kinds of people are the same.

It doesn't matter whether the starting point is good or bad, what matters is where the end point is.

"The defendant, Ghost Spider, and the plaintiff, Hai Lan, sued you for murdering the navy officers and soldiers, and disregarded human life. Is there such a thing?"

Because it was his first time as a judge, Major General Kong Ming also seemed quite unprofessional.

He judged by instinct.

"No."

The ghost spider flatly rejected Kong Ming's question, blushing without heartbeat, and it didn't look like he was lying at all.

"It was accidental injury, not murder."

"accidental injury?"

There was commotion in the conference hall, and the admirals whispered to each other.

Everyone has made the mistake of accidentally injuring a friendly army, and there is no way to avoid it. If you sue someone else in a military court because it was your soldier who accidentally injured someone else, it would seem too petty.

Kong Ming took the gavel and tapped it, motioning everyone to be quiet: "Plaintiff Hai Lan, do you have any different views on the defendant's explanation of Ghost Spider?"

Hai Lan stood up and asked back: "If it was an accidental injury, then may I ask Ghost Spider, why didn't you try your best to rescue the injured soldiers after you wiped out the zombie army, but instead just walked away?"

The ghost spider replied: "I thought they were all killed in battle, so I didn't go to save them."

"Because of the subjective and intuitive judgment, the wounded soldiers were ignored, please write it down."

Hai Lan reminded the clerk, who hurriedly wrote it down.

The ghost spider argued: "I didn't mean that..."

Kong Ming tapped the gavel: "The defendant, Ghost Spider, you have the right to remain silent, but I hope you think carefully when you speak, because every word you say will become a confession in court."

The ghost spider fell silent, and Kong Ming reminded: "The plaintiff can continue to ask questions."

"Please interrogate Witness No. [-] Wagner."

After getting approval, Wagner walked in.

"At that time we were fighting against the zombie army of the pirates. I asked for help from the g9 branch. Later, it was the ghost spider who came to support us. We thought that the ghost spider would rush to land on the beach to support us, but we didn't expect him to directly cover us with artillery fire.. .”

The ghost spider retorted angrily: "Everyone knows that zombies can infect living people into their own kind. At that time, I just wanted to destroy the zombies. If the murderer escaped due to a moment of hesitation, how would the Navy face the future?"

Wagner was also impatient: "Didn't I tell you at the time? Those zombies are not to be feared at all. It is not a problem for the well-trained soldiers in the headquarters to deal with ten by themselves, but you insist on firing. I want to stop the firing. You But he slashed me in the back!"

"You disturb the morale of the army, and offend the superiors, who else will be attacked if you don't?"

Kong Ming tapped the gavel and interjected, "Ghost Spider, are you sure you attacked Major Wagner?"

The ghost spider admitted without hesitation: "Of course! But everyone here is very clear that those who disturb the morale of the army during the war are punished by death; those who disobey military orders are punished by death; those who abandon the battle and flee are punished by death..."

Perhaps in order to increase his persuasiveness, the ghost spider also cited Akainu as an example: "Because of this, Lieutenant General Sakaski executed several soldiers. Are you going to convict him too?"

Following the ghost spider's words, all the generals present turned their attention to the red dog of the jury.

The latter's face was livid, his eyes were closed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Just when everyone thought that the hot-tempered Akainu might explode, unexpectedly, it was the voice of the plaintiff, Hai Lan: "Just you? Are you worthy of being compared with Lieutenant General Sakalski?"
