Pirates: Justice at Sea

After hearing this, Kaido's originally ferocious face slowly calmed down. His lips were slightly opened but he said nothing, as if someone had cast a restraining spell and remained motionless.

Time passed by,

He just maintained this posture, and the air around him seemed to be frozen...

I don't know how long it took,

Kaido slowly raised his huge and heavy head, his eyes showing an indescribable complex emotion, staring straight at Aizen in front of him.

His throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he made a low and hoarse voice: "I never thought that one day I would be reduced to a weakling who could be slaughtered."

"What do you want to do by leaving me alive, Aizen..."

Aizen smiled slightly and said in a low and powerful tone: "A war sweeping the entire world is about to begin, and I want you to join me."

As soon as this word comes out,

Kaido's pupils suddenly shrank, his breathing stagnated, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.

He stared at Aizen with his eyes wide open, his voice filled with shock and confusion: "Does your navy want to go to war with the World Government?!"

"How is it possible... Sengoku's brain is broken..."

suddenly,

His voice stopped suddenly, as if he suddenly thought of something, he stared at Aizen and said, "So, you are the new navy marshal?"

"You are also the one leading this war!"

Aizen nodded unabashedly, his face as calm as water, and said slowly: "Resistance to the World Government is a manifestation of everyone's will, and it is not led by me alone."

"I just played a role in fueling the situation and giving the navy and the people enough courage to challenge the authority of the world government."

"Stop talking nonsense and give me your answer."

His gaze was like a torch, locked tightly on Kaido, and he said word for word: "In the next war, will you join the navy or the world government?"

Kaido's pupils trembled violently when he heard this, and his face turned ugly to the naked eye. After gritting his teeth for a few seconds, he said in a hoarse voice: "Can't you choose neutrality?"

Aizen laughed when he heard this, and responded in a mocking tone: "Do you think it's possible?"

His voice exuded a chill, without any emotion, and his indifferent eyes were as if he were looking at a dead person, making people shudder!

Kaido slowly lowered his head, his breathing became heavy, and the expression on his face was shrouded in shadow, making it difficult to see what he was thinking.

"A great navy actually invited a pirate to be an ally. This world is really crazy..."

Aizen smiled noncommittally and said in a calm voice as always: "When facing a powerful enemy, of course we must unite all the forces that can be united."

"What's more... that's our common enemy."

"Common enemy..."

Kaido repeated in a low voice, his voice so low that only he could hear it.

Aizen seemed to see through Kaido's inner thoughts and continued: "Kaido, I have learned about your past. Your miserable and painful first half of life is inseparable from the World Government, isn't it?"

"Your subordinate, Yan Calamity, is also a victim of the evil deeds of the World Government."

"There is nothing wrong with saying that the World Government is our common enemy, right?"

After all,

He stared at Kaido closely, as if he wanted to see the deepest thoughts in his heart.

Kaido raised his head, looked directly at Aizen in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "You have changed, Aizen."

"If you were 20 years ago, you would never seek me, a notorious pirate, as an ally. Not only that, you would also take precautions and kill me as a potential threat in advance."

"So, you want to die?"

Aizen said lightly, a pale white light flashed through his lenses, and a golden flame slowly condensed in his right hand.

"I have two questions. If I don't get the answer, even if you kill me here, I will not surrender to your navy."

Kaido looked straight into Aizen's purple eyes, and said in a low voice but full of determination: "If I choose to join your navy, after defeating the World Government, will my men be spared death?"

Aizen shook his head without hesitation.

"Once a sin is committed, no one can wash it away."

"The post-war treatment for the Beasts Pirates is very simple. Those who committed crimes will be punished, and those who are innocent will be released."

"But based on what you do on a daily basis, probably none of the entire Beast Pirates will survive, except, of course, your daughter named Yamato."

Kaido's breathing stagnated, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of energy, and he sat on the ground feebly.

He laughed bitterly and said in a hoarse voice: "You are really calm, Aizen."

"Since I can't escape death no matter what, why should I help your navy?"

"You must know that I am a pirate pursuing wealth, power and freedom..."

Faced with Kaido’s words,

Aizen just responded calmly: "You will."

His tone was calm but firm.

"If the world government is defeated, there will be no more war and oppression in this world, and everyone will become free..."

Kaido's body trembled slightly, his fists couldn't help but clenched, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

this moment,

in his heart,

The faith and ideals that have always been there are competing with perseverance and dignity!

"Kaido, you once dreamed of becoming Joyboy, but you gave up in the end."

"Why would you give up?"

"Is it just because you don't have Joey Boy's unique power? Haha, your cruelty and evil deeds have already made you run counter to Joey Boy's ideals!"

"You have committed too many sins, Kaido..."

"So you want to atone for your sins, and the person who threatens to knock you down in the future will be Joey Boy."

"What you do... is to use your life to lay the foundation for the liberation of the next Joey Boy."

"I'm right, Kaido."

Aizen looked at Kaido with burning eyes, his eyes were sharp and keen, and his words were sonorous and powerful, hitting Kaido's heart like a heavy hammer!

Kaido's eyes were in a trance for a while, and his mind drifted to an unknown time ago along with Aizen's words.

"but."

"Those are things of the past."

"Now you...have an opportunity in front of you."

“An opportunity to not have to wait for the next Joey Boy to come along.”

"A chance to be the real Joey Boy."

"A chance for redemption!"
