Raise a glass to ignite the world of One Piece

At the top of the red soil continent towering into the clouds, the clouds and mist are filled with beauty.

Holy Land, Mary Gioia.

The four-yearly World Conference is coming to an end, and the mission of the Navy Headquarters as a security force is coming to an end.

"Ah la la... After today is over, I can finally go back to sleep."

The tall man in the coat of justice yawned and stretched his waist, and glanced at the towering castle slowly.

Counting the time, the kings should have finished their final wrangling and quarrel, and are ready to go home.

"Well, now is the time to show your face."

Even on such a serious occasion, the man who still wears a blindfold willfully on his forehead is naturally the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, "Aokiji" Kuzan.

During the World Conference, the three admirals in the Navy Headquarters who had been promoted for a few years had their own tasks.

"Red Dog" Sakaski sits in the Navy Headquarters, and "Yellow Ape" Polusalino is in charge of the security work of the Tianlong people.

However, Kuzan, who chose to lie flat but was ordered by Marshal Zhan Guo several times, could only reluctantly lead his subordinates to be responsible for the security of the delegations from various countries participating in the meeting.

But now, he only has an admiral wearing a justice coat by his side.

"Although you say that, Mr. Kuzan, you are still fishing for fish on the last day."

An admiral with short black hair and a slender figure, who seemed to contain explosive power while walking, slightly relaxed his frown that had been locked all along.

Even in this "sacred land" as beautiful as a fairyland, his clenched fists seemed to be about to unleash a thunderous blow at any time.

"Didn't you just wake up?"

"...relax, Wayne."

Kuzan tilted his head, and calmly patted off the grass clippings on his body:

"You've been so nervous these days...

"Well, but it wasn't much better when I first came to Marie Gioia."

He looked in the direction Wayne was looking at, raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and shook his head helplessly.

That is the direction of Tianlongren's mansion.

This is called "Holy Land".

But for the slaves, this place is more terrifying than hell.

"Next week you will be officially promoted to lieutenant general of the headquarters, and you will see many such things in the future.

"Your knowledgeable and domineering is special, this time I will arrange you by my side...

"Well, so don't complain that I'm fishing. It's torture for you to stay on the other side of the venue, isn't it?"

"..."

Taking a deep breath, turning off the domineering look, Wayne's eyes finally gradually calmed down.

"I have heard about the actions of the Tianlong people for a long time, but I just saw it with my own eyes...

"No, it's more shocking than seeing it with your own eyes."

"Ahhh, you really dare to say it, young people nowadays."

Since the O'Hara incident, Kuzan's personality has changed a lot, and his words have become a lot less.

Abandoning "burning justice" and choosing "lazy justice" is also the result of long-term ideological struggle.

But Kuzan attaches great importance to this junior genius who is also under the same teacher as Zefa.

because……

"Last year... sorry, I didn't pay enough attention to your reminder."

Kuzan stopped in his footsteps, recalling the shock, remorse and self-blame when he saw the almost completely destroyed naval training warship with his own eyes.

"Wayne, you were the best in your training camp, but you were too low-key.

"I understand your concerns, this kind of unreasonable premonition, even if your knowledge and color can perceive emotions,..."

His Excellency the General grinned and scratched his hair, sighing again and again:

"Ah la la... Anyway, thank you very much for trusting me, but I..."

"Is that why Mr. Kuzan recommended me for promotion?"

Wayne smiled wryly and shook his head,

An inexplicable meaning flashed in his eyes:

"It's natural to have a hunch without reason, and it's natural for Mr. Kuzan not to blame himself.

"Mr. Zefa has not been disappointed with the navy, even though he lost his right wrist, he still firmly believes that he can train excellent talents.

"only……"

He took a deep look at the complex-looking admiral in front of him:

"Even if I don't have the knowledge and arrogance like me, the high command of the navy will only know more about the wailing that fills this 'sacred place' than I do.

"We, the Navy Headquarters, follow the word 'justice'..."

Wayne slowly raised his hand, grabbed the collar of the justice coat, and clenched it tightly:

"It's really ironic..."

An awkward silence.

"We are all looking forward to justice and joining the navy."

After a long time, Kuzan put his hands in his trouser pockets and continued to walk slowly.

Walking out of the artificial forest, in front of you is the "automatic trail" leading to the main gate of Pangu City, which is known as "a weapon of civilization".

Under Kuzan's knowledgeable domineering, this can be said to be a sinful creation covered with the flesh and blood of slaves, which made this frozen fruit capable user feel a little passionate.

"...the Navy will not take this path."

Going around, Kuzan noticed that Major General Wayne's brows were frowning again behind him.

"Everyone has their own justice.

"Just as Mr. Karp is unwilling to board Marie Gioia, Mr. Warring States has independently supported and maintained the stability of the headquarters for many years.

"The style of the Tianlong people... hmph.

"Without the efforts of the headquarters, what would the world be like? Have you ever thought about it, Wayne?"

"Of course, I've been thinking about it for ten years."

It has been ten years since he came to this world, and Wayne, with the pride of a time traveler, made up his mind to ascend to a high position and change the navy.

"Of course, I joined the navy after the village was attacked by pirates because I yearned for justice.

"But Mr. Kuzan, I don't think I'm ready for the promotion to lieutenant general."

Wayne looked up at the majestic Pangu City bathed in golden sunlight, his eyes darkened:

"I... haven't found my own justice yet."

At that time, he successfully entered the elite training camp with excellent results.

Under the strict training of the chief instructor and former general Zefa, Wayne gave full play to his advantages.

My physical strength is at least several times that of normal people!

And with the increase in strength, this can be said to be his only simple cheat, and it is still getting stronger.

Even if he fought with all his strength, he hadn't felt out of strength for many years.

Ten days and ten nights of battle between the top powerhouses?

He can now output at full strength for half a month without stopping.

Several small uninhabited islands that were silently erased on the Great Route can prove that...

In terms of strength, Wayne has already far surpassed many lieutenant generals in the headquarters.

But in the Navy headquarters for many years, Wayne deeply understands, let alone generals and marshals.

Even the entire Navy Headquarters is indeed just the face of the world government.

The helplessness and powerlessness in this is definitely not something that can be understood by reading comics.

What's more, Wayne is still completely abused when facing the serious Kuzan.

The battery life is strong, but the output power is not enough.

Therefore, he has always kept a low profile and accumulated strength.

While waiting for the opportunity, he has been thinking, is his choice really correct?

More than ten years ago, I just saw the cruelty of the real pirate world, and joined the navy with the way of thinking of ordinary people in the peaceful era...

If I think that I can overlook the world from the perspective of a traveler, can I really realize my arrogant ideal?

"If it's you, you can find it soon."

Kuzan stopped, and they had arrived at the main gate of Pangu City while speaking.

On the square behind the gate, the missions of various countries are coming out of the conference hall under the guidance of the naval lieutenants.

Wayne turned his attention to the resolute King Cobra of Alabasta, and...

Following him was Princess Weiwei who was said to be only ten years old.

"Dragon people..."
