I'm a pirate in Tokyo

Wu Sheng walked behind Luffy, looked at the increasingly anxious Inugami, and the dull-eyed Crow, and asked, "Why don't you deal with him? Hurry up and finish your work and go have a midnight snack."

"He is completely different from the yakuza I admired. I want to ask him why he quit the yakuza and why he did so many unethical things." Luffy spoke in a low voice, looking past Inugami and looking directly into Crowe's eyes.

Crowe naturally heard what he said and looked at his strangely persistent eyes with a dazed expression.

Coming from a mafia background, he naturally has the consciousness of death.

He reluctantly stood up, raised his head, waved his right hand lightly, and a beam of light shot into the sky from the top of the bank, lifting the violent state of all the shadow legions present, and shouted to the Inugami who was in a state of manic confrontation: "Okay, change back to human form. Well, we admit defeat..."

Inugami turned around, with strong unwillingness in his eyes: "Brother!"

"Stand down, and leave the rest to me. I have worked hard for you all these years." Crowe adjusted his clothes, acting like a big brother, and said to Luffy: "Do you know? The pain of changing yourself is greater than the pain of changing yourself. It’s much better to be dragged forward by your own nature.”

"???" Luffy asked.

Seeing Luffy's confused face, Crowe laughed nonchalantly: "Sometimes you desperately want to break away from the path of fate and desperately want to take the right path, but at some point, there is only a muddy road ahead. .”

"This is the way I behave, whether it's murder, loan sharking, intimidation to collect debts, kidnapping for extortion, or fake death... I think, as long as I can keep walking on this muddy road, One day, all the mud on your body will dry out and be left behind, right?" Crowe answered Luffy's question.

"This is my morality, my way of survival, and the foundation of my life. The word morality is in the underworld, but it has nothing to do with morality." He explained all Luffy's doubts at once.

He also had doubts on his face. He tried his best to escape from the quagmire, but there was someone who yearned for him on the bright road. Knowing that he was about to die, he simply asked: "Underworld has always been a frightening word. I don't know." I understand why you yearn for it, can you tell me?"

At this time, the shadow army was retreating in an orderly manner to eliminate the violence. Sauron and Nami came over and saw that several people seemed to be talking, but they did not interrupt and stood aside quietly, recovering their state.

"Because there is a person who is very important to me who is the underworld. His morality is completely different from yours." Luffy touched his hat: "He always avoids harming ordinary people, and he also goes out of his way to help innocent people. You evil people are poisonous."

"Oh? Is he also in Tokyo?" Crowe asked.

"Yes, his name is Shanks." Luffy replied.

"Oh, it's him." "What!?"

Crowe nodded and Bucky exclaimed.

"What, you know each other?" Wu Sheng looked back at Bucky. Bucky and Shanks in this world also know each other?

"Ah..." Bucky didn't know what he thought of, his face darkened, neither affirming nor denying.

Crowe nodded: "The leader of the Dojima group, I have heard about his name for a long time, and I heard that he is a hero. Their way of doing things is indeed very different from the traditional underworld."

Luffy's eyes lit up when he heard Crow praising Shanks, and he wanted to have a mutual exaggeration meeting.

But after Crowe knew the answer he wanted, he stopped talking and interrupted Luffy: "I won't struggle anymore. Although I can absorb the negative emotional energy of the entire palace and use it to strengthen myself, but... .I understand now that it was just a useless struggle. I should have died a year ago, but..." He seemed to be thinking of the fragments of the Sin Realm that Mammon had forcibly embedded in the palace.

"Let me die like a man." He looked at Luffy: "In return for no longer struggling to death, I hope you will let Inugami go and let him return to the public consciousness of the criminal world."

"Okay." Luffy replied simply.

"Okay, you don't seem to be coveting treasures." He said and glanced at Bucky.

Crow turned back to look at Inugami: "You are the only one among us who doesn't want to leave the Kuroda group. Now that we are all dead and hungry for so many years, you can have a good meal of negative energy when you return to the sin world. .”

Inugami had returned to human form at this time, smoking a cigar, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and did not answer Crowe's words.

Crowe smiled, looked back at Luffy, knelt on his knees, put his hands on his thighs, and lowered his head: "Come on."

Luffy looked at Zoro with a serious expression.

Zoro understood, pulled out the Tengu Tongyu and handed it to Luffy.

Luffy took it, walked behind Crowe, and without saying a word, swung his sword down.

Crowe's body and head were separated, his face was full of calm, and before his head hit the ground, it turned into black particles and dissipated in the air.

The entire hall exploded at this moment. Under the gloomy sky, countless scarlet light pillars broke through the clouds and fell, covering the shadow soldiers in the hall. The largest light pillar was from the Inugami.

He was standing in the beam of light, smoking out the cigar in one breath, looking at Wu Sheng, Luffy, Zoro, and Nami one by one, trying to carve their looks into his soul, with deep hatred in his eyes, which seemed to say Said: "I will come back to you."

But He didn't want Crowe's self-sacrifice to be in vain, so he finally held back the anger in his heart and gradually dissipated in the scarlet light pillar without saying a word.

The bank behind the few people was completely empty, and the projection of human consciousness, negative emotions, evil thoughts, and shadow soldiers inside all disappeared in the beam of light.

Melted like God's redemption, a mysterious aura of sadness and loneliness from a long time ago filled the entire hall, and time and space became silent.

The four of them couldn't help but be a little stunned as they looked at this glorious and spectacular scene that they had never seen before in Aaron's Hall.

After all, Aaron directly swallowed up all the shadows and negative emotions in the entire palace. Before he died, the palace was empty.

Half a minute later, the light beam dissipated, leaving only an empty bank in the entire hall.

Bucky, who was hanging on the Wusheng Silver Gun, looked at the core of the palace left where Crowe died. He swallowed his saliva. The scar healed and he forgot about the pain. His eyes rolled around, and wrong thoughts came into his heart.

However, in the silent space, the sound of his saliva was extremely loud.

Luffy and the four of them all came back to their senses and looked at him.

Bucky was startled and drooled again.

Now he realized it. After Crowe died, it was time to settle the score with him. He laughed a little awkwardly and said in a small voice: "It's not that we don't know each other without fighting... ?"

"Hehehehehehe..." Wu Sheng put him down with a smile and was about to start settling accounts, then said: "Yes?"

Luffy picked up the core of the palace and was not in a hurry to crush it and absorb it. He also had many questions to ask Bucky. The palace was the best environment. Otherwise, when he went out and saw four of them holding sharp blades surrounding a middle-aged man, maybe I really thought they were bad boys.

Luffy handed the Tengu Tongyu back to Zoro. He did not check the harvest. He and Wu Sheng surrounded Bucky on the left and right, feeling that he had made a new breakthrough in the lower limit of the awakened person's standard.

"How does it feel to be a lackey for a glutton?" Wu Sheng asked first.

Bucky's face turned red: "How can I call a lackey on a matter of survival? I just want to live, isn't this wrong?"

Nami didn't believe it: "Then you could have warned us halfway through, right? Why did you still attack Luffy?"

Bucky hesitated: "Because... I didn't know you were so strong... I thought you were just ordinary newcomers."

"Because you think we are doomed, so you just do bad things to survive?" Sauron interjected.

"Yes... I gave up the struggle after I knew this was the palace of a gangster brother. I thought you didn't know either." Bucky held his head together, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. .

"Then do you know that we are trapped in a tight siege to save you?" Wu Sheng's question pointed at Bucky's heart again.

Bucky is not really a ungrateful person, otherwise he would not have awakened the will to resist. He knew that what he did this time was really embarrassing and sent him to Siberia. His fair and swollen face had now turned into a reddish color. .

There was an awkward silence.

For a long time, Bucky kept hesitating, but finally faced the four of them and said in a frustrated tone: "I'm sorry for you, life or death is up to you."

At this time, Orobosi emerged from his heart: "He is not like this. I am not trying to defend myself, but this time things are weird, as if someone has been inexplicably stimulating the greed in our hearts."

"I originally thought that Nue was playing tricks on me, but later I found out that He was also affected," Orobosi said.

Wu Sheng and the other four were startled when they heard that the greed in their hearts was stirred up. They looked at each other and already knew the culprit.

As soon as Luffy made a move, Wu Sheng shook his head at him and signaled him to stop talking. Then he said to Orobosi: "Don't use such inexplicable reasons to prevaricate us. Regardless of whether there is one or not, at least we are in the same place." Despite the circumstances, I still provided you with the most benevolent assistance and did not give up on you just because we didn’t know each other. Am I right?”

Orobosi and Bucky nodded at the same time, indicating that they had no objection.

"Don't expect us to forgive you easily. In order to show your sincerity in apologizing, first give us the information you have."

When Bucky heard that he seemed to have something to talk about, he nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Oh, okay."

Wu Sheng smiled with satisfaction: "First question: Why are you so good?"

"?!" Bucky was stunned, feeling angry. Just as he was about to retort, Orobosi reminded him from behind: "Sincerity, sincerity!"

"..."

Okay, you can fight, you are awesome!

"I feel like I'm no longer good... I was also a top player in the team when I was young." Bucky said depressedly.

"Bad? Young? Team? Expert?" Wu Sheng was completely confused by these four information points. He and Luffy looked at each other in confusion. Does this guy still have an organization?

Wu Sheng thought for a moment and prepared to ask questions one by one: "How old are you this year? When did you awaken? Are you sure your fighting power remains as young as you were? When was the last time you went to the palace or the world of crime?"

Don’t ask the age of a man who is single and in his 30s! Bucky was angry and didn't want to answer, but Orobosi coughed behind him: "Sincerity, sincerity, sincerity."

"..."

Okay, you are young and you are awesome!

"I am 32 years old. I woke up when I was about 17 years old. I should keep it up. The last time was about three years ago..." Bucky suddenly remembered that he was dragged into this group of people, and suddenly became excited: "I originally I have decided not to come in again, but you innocently got implicated in it, so it’s only right that you come to save me, okay?”

"Oh? Why don't you just leave? Aren't you allowed to return to the real world?" Wu Sheng ignored his rebuttal and asked directly: "How many people are in the team you mentioned, and Shanks is among you? A member of?”

Bucky was stunned, yes, it seems that he is coveting the Noble Phantasm. It looks like a bank palace, and he is planning to get a valuable Noble Phantasm and live a comfortable life for a few years...

Then when he heard Shanks' name, his face darkened again and he didn't want to answer.

Orobosi coughed again, and Bucky turned back suddenly without waiting for him to speak: "Where are you from?"

"Huh?" Wu Sheng hummed with a sullen face, holding Bucky's cell phone in his right hand and turning it over on his fingertips: "I heard that there is a photo of you and Xiaotiao Yu-chan in this phone?"

"How did you know!?" Bucky was shocked.

Then he realized that his cell phone was in Wu Sheng's hand. When he patted the inner pocket of his chest, it was really empty. The "hostage" was in someone else's hand. Bucky was stunned instantly.

"Elig and Orobos were chatting so happily just now. He tried his best to preach to us and boast about himself. Didn't you hear?"

"Okay..." Wu Sheng's "hostage" was in hand, and Bucky accepted his fate. He explained: "There were about six of us at that time, but I worked for three years. Just because of my studies and reality, I quit the job for various reasons, I don’t know what happened next, Shanks is also one of us.”

"You started to destroy the palace 15 years ago?" Wu Sheng asked.

"Shanks is also an Awakened One?!" Luffy shouted in surprise from the side.

Bucky knew from the conversation just now that Luffy admired Shanks and expressed his affirmation, but said nothing more.

Wu Sheng also didn't want to know the story told by this man who was older than him in two lifetimes, so he continued to ask: "Then you have been fighting in the criminal world for three years, why are you so weak and have such a weak will?"

Bucky lowered his head and finally fell silent.

Seeing him like this, Oruobosi couldn't bear to push him anymore and explained to him: "Because he has lost hope in this 'child's game' that can kill people."

"Children's play? How can the act of saving others be an ordinary child's play?" Nami retorted loudly. After being redeemed, she felt the deepest recognition of the four people's behavior of helping others in the palace.

"How come it's not a child's game? You are still young and have seen too little. The world in your eyes is black and white..." Bucky endured his anger and argued: "People with high status at least know that they are guilty. , they can get salvation from us!"

"However!" Bucky was excited, but extremely frustrated.

But he also changed his previous gloomy and unpleasant numb expression, and suddenly and quickly said loudly: "However! What I can't accept the most is that tragedies happen every moment in this world, and then lead to tragedies. Those people not only don’t have palaces, they don’t even have evil thoughts!

Do you know what this means?

This means that they believe that they are righteous from the bottom of their hearts and that they are right from the bottom of their hearts.

Racists are pure evil who grew up with distorted ideas. Their evil does not have any desire or utilitarianism. If they are murderers, then they believe from the bottom of their hearts that the people they kill deserve to die. Just like you came to this palace hoping to purify Crow.

In their opinion, they are making a contribution to the beauty of this world!

When all the palaces in Tokyo have been emptied by us in three years, the tragedy in this world still continues!

Numb people continue to live in a world of pain, and crazy people gradually go further and further in madness, getting closer and closer to self-destruction.

Human beings in this city and this world have lost contact with the world!

Not only humans, but also me, have been bound by our own consciousness, have lost the ability to feel, lost the ability to empathize, and confused the real natural world with virtual electronic symbols.

Human beings are destroying the original world, and human beings are building a brand new world!

A world without nature!

This world is full of fire, full of electricity, full of creation, full of madness, full of hatred, full of desire, full of joy, full of complex emotions and cold reason born and hatched from 100 billion neurons.

Just like we can't change the thoughts of those paranoid people, we can't stop the world created by humans from coming!

That being the case, why not enjoy this purely civilized world created by humans? "

Bucky spoke out the despair in his heart without stopping. Looking at the surprised expressions on the faces of Wu Sheng and the four others, he knew that these young people might not be able to listen at all, or even understand his words.

He sighed in disappointment, but knew that this might be the end of it for him. Looking at the immature and youthful faces of the four of them, he mustered up the courage in his heart to pour out the depression he had been feeling for more than ten years: "I'm not trying to make you Disappointment. People, even those who are awakened, cannot stop the coming of that great starfall moment. The nature of the earth will die in hundreds of thousands of years, and humans will either fall into hell with it, or go to eternal life in the universe!

And what can you, who were thousands of years ago, change here and now?

You can't stop the trend of the times! You cannot stop the inertia of history!

This world is no longer what it is. The world is full of distortions. Just destruction and voluntary death can be seen everywhere. What can we change in the end? "

"That's wrong." Wu Sheng said.

"What?" Bucky looked at him in surprise.

Although Wu Sheng was surprised that Bucky thought so deeply and far, he still disagreed with his fragile despair: "I said, you are wrong."

Luffy, Zoro, and Nami already felt a little disappointed by the situation described by Bucky. The helpless despair also gently touched their young hearts. They wanted to sympathize but found themselves in it, wanted to comfort but couldn't. Find yourself helpless.

But Wu Sheng's denial shocked the three of them. After all...

"One! You said that people who judge their evil deeds as righteous actions are guilty! Their crime is arrogance!"

"Two! Do you think everything will be fine after cleaning up the palace? Do you underestimate human beings? Without sadness, how can there be joy? How can you feel hope if you are not alive? Numb people have their own way of survival, and crazy people have their own way of survival. It’s time to die! If you punish yourself because of other people’s insensitivity, and allow crazy people to continue their madness, won’t you bring trouble to the world?”

"Three! In reality, there are so many people in the world who are striving with their own small efforts for this beautiful world to make this world better and more harmonious. Why do you think so with your own opinions? Does that negate their efforts?”

"Four! Since there is no way in the palace or in the world of crime, is it better to increase your influence in the real world and influence more people? With extraordinary power, you have more opportunities than ordinary people. With more energy and confidence, why not try to change the world?”

"Five! That's the last point! Human beings are creating the human world, and the earth is being destroyed. However, some humans are also trying their best to protect the earth, and some humans are also exploring the boundaries of humans in the universe. Do you know the Dyson sphere? Do you have artificial celestial bodies? Concept? Now we may not be able to reach it or see it!

However, I know that if the number of palaces is not suppressed, when the entire city, the entire country, and the entire human race fall into the suppression of negative emotions, our descendants will not be able to see it! The hope of mankind will be cut off from us! "

Wu Sheng took a breath and said slowly: "Don't be too self-righteous and think of yourself as the savior. Maybe we are not changing anything, we are just passing on hope."

The whole place was silent. Bucky stared at Wu Sheng dumbfounded, seeing a firm message in his eyes.

This young man, at this moment, firmly believes that he will turn into firewood and pass on the great cause that he cannot complete as a torch.

Snot flowed from his comically bulbous nose, waking him up from his sluggishness with a chill.

Wu Sheng's words were like drums in the evening and bells in the morning, giving Bucky a sense of enlightenment.

Bucky's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked through Wu Sheng at the distant gloomy clouds. With these young people here, maybe one day, sooner or later, the sun will penetrate the clouds in the world of sin.

He remembered his expectations for the world when he was young. At this strange moment, he should have been angry, should have racked his brains to refute, not for any reason, just for the sake of refutation.

However, it is too foolish to blindly resist reality and hope.

Even though Wu Sheng has revealed how stupid his impulsive and blind wishes were when he was young, how his troubled heart has been closed for many years, and even completely denied all the thoughts and values ​​of his more than ten years.

However, he closed his eyes, hoping that a little spark would light up in his heart again at this moment, and his life would suddenly have a new direction.

The question that has troubled him for more than ten years finally has an answer today.

He looked at Wu Sheng with satisfaction and admiration and said, "You are right, I am self-righteous."

"Thank you."
