One Piece: I Am the Revolutionary Army

The news that Kuzan appeared in Frevans surprised Roya. He knew very well that Aokiji's actions at this moment were not instructed by the Navy, and intelligence gathering or lurking was not done in this way. Moreover, from the Navy's point of view, Frevans was ravaged by the epidemic, so why would they send a rising star with unlimited potential to take risks?

The only explanation is that Aokiji came here on his own initiative. At the critical moment of the Navy, his independent actions had made Roya vaguely guess that something must have happened to Aokiji.

"What did he do in Frevans?" Roya asked the soldier beside him, a member of the revolutionary army named Sass.

"I didn't do anything out of the ordinary. I just talked to the public, and the topic involved us and platinum lead disease." Sass replied, and he also prepared materials, including photos of Aokiji and records of communication with the public.

Today, Frefans appears calm on the surface, but in fact it is heavily guarded. Every citizen is the eye of the revolutionary army, and no stranger can escape surveillance. This is the ultimate manifestation of mass work. The people have full faith in the revolutionary army, and the revolutionary army is closely connected with the masses.

In just a few days, Frevans has uncovered 53 CP9 spies. Those guys who once gave Roya a headache could not escape the public's insight no matter how clever their disguises were.

"It is true." After reading the information, Roya smiled and said, "Do we need to control him, Sasse?"

As a rising star in the navy, Kuzan was very powerful. Sass had seen him before, and although he was defeated by Yixiao, the difference was very small. In Frevans, he was undoubtedly a walking bomb.

"No need." Luo Ya smiled, "He is not here to fight, but to pursue his own path."

"Just follow him and let him investigate. There's no need to cover up. The more he investigates, the more he will agree with us. He just lacks a reason to convince himself, and Frevans is that sufficient reason," Roya explained.

Although Sass was puzzled, he knew very well that Roya's judgment was rarely wrong.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sass." Roya thanked Sass who was about to leave.

"No, you are. You should rest more." Sass said sincerely.

After Sass left, Roya still stared at the canvas as he did when he came. Every time he saw Roya, he could feel the transmission of strength and faith.

The next morning, Luo Ya got up early to exercise as usual. Despite the many affairs at sea, he still maintained the habits he developed when he was training in the Kingdom of Croaxi. This is a world that values ​​the power system, and personal martial arts training is crucial.

First, physical training, then physical training and martial arts, until the whole body is sweating. Finally, spiritual training, mainly practicing observation Haki. He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and sensed everything around him, life breath, movement trajectory, emotional fluctuations.

"I've been watching for so long, why don't you show up, Kuzan?" Luo Ya finished his training, opened his eyes, took a long breath, and called out.

"Your perception is really sharp. You are so young, but your observation Haki is like a monster." Aokiji jumped down from a tree not far away and walked towards Luoya. He was not wearing a navy uniform, but a emerald green coat with a white lining, round-frame sunglasses, a blue-white headscarf on his head, and a dark gray shoulder bag on his shoulder.

At this moment, Aokiji was free of the confusion and depression he had in the Coal and Iron City in the past, and seemed much more relaxed.

"Long time no see, Luoya." Aokiji walked up to Luoya and greeted him warmly like an old friend.

"Your taste has improved a lot since you left the navy." Roya looked at Aokiji and said teasingly, "But your glasses are still the same."

"Hahaha, this is my favorite." Aokiji laughed.

"You knew I quit the Navy?" Luo Ya nodded. "I roughly guessed it."

"To be honest, I myself didn't expect that I would leave the navy after such a short time. It's hard to explain." Aokiji sat next to Roya, and they faced the bustling streets of Frevans.

"Would you like some wine?" Aokiji took out a bottle of sherry from his bag and handed it to Luoya.

"Although I'm curious about the taste, it's better for me not to drink alcohol at my age." Luo Ya declined.

"What a pity! This is a gift from my respected teacher. I usually don't want to give it away." Aokiji said as he opened the wine and tasted it alone.

After three rounds of drinks, his eyes became deep and his heart seemed to open up.

He looked at the town, at the people smiling in the sunshine, and said to Roya, more like talking to himself: "You know, Roya, I am a war orphan, I grew up in war, I know the harm war brings to people, and how precious peace is."

"So I exercised my body since I was young, protected bullied children, and established a belief in justice. I met many kind sailors and received their help."

"I once dreamed of becoming a marine, and even thought I would stay in the navy for the rest of my life, just like Marshal Sakaski, Mr. Garp, and Mr. Zephyr."

Aokiji said to himself: "Three years ago, I joined the navy as I wished, and was fortunate to be taught by Mr. Zephyr. He is an upright man. I heard that he would not kill the admiral, but after his family was killed by pirates, he began to hate pirates. However, his passion for justice has never diminished, and he will lend a helping hand to those in need."

"Teacher Zephyr mentioned many times that his justice came from his belief in protecting the people. Later, I followed Mr. Garp. He was very powerful and helped me improve. At the same time, he was friendly to the people and was rude to the Celestial Dragons and the nobles. He never concealed his disgust for them."

"From him, I became more convinced that justice is to protect ordinary people, not nobles and Celestial Dragons. But in these three years, I have also seen a lot of darkness. I began to understand that not only pirates, but also nobles, Celestial Dragons, and the Navy are not absolutely just, and sometimes they do unjust things."

"I know that although Mr. Garp is handsome, he is helpless against the Celestial Dragons. Mr. Garp and Mr. Zephyr ultimately enforce justice through compromise."

At this point, Aokiji looked at Roya and said with a smile: "To be honest, if I hadn't met your revolutionary army in the Goa Kingdom, I might have become a person like Mr. Garp."

"Oh?" Luo Ya listened calmly, acting as a listener.

He could hear that Aokiji was trying to convince himself to say goodbye to his past self who dreamed of joining the navy.

"After that meeting with you, I went to the Kingdom of Goa many times and gained a better understanding of your ideas. The more I understood, the more I felt that you were right. Especially after the incident in the Kingdom of Lubni, I used your methods to conduct an in-depth investigation. You were right and the navy was wrong."

Luo Ya was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Aokiji, the Vice Admiral of the Navy, would investigate Lubni so deeply. He was indeed different from others.

He understood the Revolutionary Army's philosophy thoroughly. "This time, I really can't accept why our navy, which is supposed to protect the people, is going against humanity and destroying the country, and it's you, the Revolutionary Army, who are called traitors by the World Government, who are the ones doing it."

"This absurdity makes me completely disappointed in the World Government." Aokiji felt completely desperate about the World Government, especially after learning the truth in Frevans.

He was not completely disappointed with the Navy, but that was not important. He knew that the root cause was the World Government. As long as there was a World Government, the Navy could not truly enforce justice, and the tragedy of Frevans would continue to happen, which was why he resolutely resigned.

"Thank you for listening to me for so long, Roya." Aokiji drank the wine, took a deep breath, looked at Frevans and asked: "Do you need a navy who wants to protect justice?"

This was Aokiji’s last question. After saying it, he bid farewell to his past self completely and waved goodbye to the navy under the World Government.

This was his decision after a thorough investigation of Frevans and careful consideration. It was his decision to follow the footsteps of the Revolutionary Army, from their acquaintance in the Kingdom of Goa, to Lubni's confusion and recognition, to the support of the people of Frevans, and finally to his firm belief that the path of the Revolutionary Army was the right one.

This time, his gaze was firm and powerful.

Luo Ya said nothing, but stood up and walked to Aokiji, stretched out his hand to him, and said with a smile: "Of course you are welcome, Comrade Kuzan, welcome to join the revolutionary army."

Aokiji was stunned and subconsciously reached out his hand, but was pulled up by Luoya.

Roya stood in front of Frefans, pulling people closer to the path of revolution.

Aokiji looked at the energetic people behind him, and a long-lost sense of security arose. He came from here, and he will also integrate into this place.
