Chapter 237: The One Who Doesn't Give Up on Himself
That's right, Akainu was pitted by John. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The reason why Akainu stayed here had nothing to do with John from beginning to end, but John's intrusion really disrupted Akainu's plan. John is an insignificant little person, at least in the eyes of Akainu, but this little person has something to do with the Draconian, so it is impossible for Akainu not to pay attention to it.
As we all know, in the Chambord Islands, the Draconians were attacked, and the admirals had to move, not to mention that John was still a figure named by the Draconians! It would not be abrupt for the Akainu to escort John personally. Besides, Akainu, as the admiral, should have returned to the naval headquarters a long time ago, and now escorting John, in the eyes of others, is just a passing, and it won't be too much trouble. If Akainu makes excuses to shirk even the things that go by the way, do you, the new admiral, still take the Tenryu people in your eyes?!
So, Akainu is very difficult. Of course, Akainu can now take advantage of his convenience as a naval marshal to transfer the yellow ape over and let the yellow ape escort John, so that the Celestial Dragon people can also explain the past, and the Akainu himself can stay and continue to recuperate with peace of mind. But don't forget what time period it is? Akainu and Pheasant have just finished dueling, Pheasant has just left the Navy, and Akainu has just been promoted to marshal, in other words, before the new admiral is selected, there is only one admiral left in the current navy, the yellow ape!
During the sensitive period, the yellow ape was transferred for such a trivial matter, what if something went wrong elsewhere? Akainu was a man with a sense of the overall situation, otherwise he would not be qualified for the post of admiral, so it was impossible for him to make such a choice.
In fact, the best thing to do now is for Akainu to withstand the pressure and send only one lieutenant general to escort John. After all, this is just a matter of face for the Celestial Dragons, John surrendered on his own initiative, and it is impossible for him to escape from prison normally, so why waste a powerful combat power on John. That's right, Akainu almost did the same, you must know that Akainu has never been a soft bone (in the manga, later in the Doflamingo incident, Akainu also yelled at the five old stars, saying that they had become puppets of the Draconians. From here, you can see Akainu's attitude towards the Tenryu people), Akainu is a very pragmatic person, and it can be seen from the top war that as long as the goal can be achieved, he doesn't mind compromising the means.
Of course, there is a premise for all of this -- that is, to achieve the goal! If it goes smoothly, of course Akaiu is willing to send only one lieutenant general to escort John, but will this really go well? What if John turns himself in? Even if John himself does not take the initiative to escape from prison? Don't forget John's identity, he is the deputy captain of the Straw Hat! John himself does not want to escape, can it mean that Straw Hat Luffy will not come to save him?
Thinking about the Straw Hats back then, for the feat of a self-surrendering Nico Robin who broke into Justice Island, Akainu was almost certain that this time the Straw Hats would inevitably come to rescue John! Therefore, one lieutenant general was not insured at all, and even several lieutenant generals were not necessarily insured. Akainu was already under tremendous pressure, and if John was really kidnapped, the Draconians would definitely be in trouble because of it, and it was because he Akainu did not personally escort him that led to such a consequence. At that time, it is not an exaggeration to say that the road of Marshal of Akainu is estimated to have come to an end.
To put it simply, if the Akainu was not personally escorted, and John was robbed, then the Akainu would definitely be hated by the Draconians; and if the Akainu was personally escorted, but John was still successfully rescued, the Draconians would only scold him at most for being "useless" and "the shame of the navy"; of course, if such a thing really happened, there must be a very strong enemy, or force majeure factors, under such a premise, even if the Akainu was scolded, it would not affect his status.
It is conceivable that after analyzing all the circumstances in detail, Akainu could only choose to escort John personally with his injuries. As for the possibility of escorting John alone and leaving Caesar and Bonnie behind, Akainu didn't even think about it! Just kidding, who is Akainu? Akainu is a person who can lose face for the sake of practical results. In the eyes of Akainu, John has always been an insignificant little person, Caesar and Bonnie are the focus, in this case, how can Akainu throw watermelons and pick up sesame seeds. Akainu believed that as long as he walked on the front foot, it would be strange that Caesar and Bonnie would be rescued without the back foot. So, no matter what, Akainu will not let Caesar and Bonnie out of his control, and it can even be said that if there is an inevitable situation, Akaiu would rather let John escape than leave Caesar and Bonnie!
Of course, John could not have known all of the above. John didn't know that he was actually the luckiest one on the scene, and the easiest one to escape, on the contrary, John always thought that he was the key target of the Red Inu who was named by the Draconians.
It's over!
At this time, John desperately hoped that Robin and the others would come and rescue him, but he was extremely afraid that Robin and they would be killed by Akainu instead. But think about it, Sabo, as a high-ranking member of the GM Army, shouldn't be able to mess around casually, in other words, maybe no one will come to save him at all??
Navy warships,
Just when John was extremely confused about his future, a slight voice suddenly came into his ears,
"Colonel John!
"Huh?" John looked up, his eyes lit up, "Dusty?!"
Of course, that's not the point, if you make good use of this navy that blindly believes in you, maybe John will really find a chance to escape from prison.
Soon, though, John's eyes, which had just lit up, dimmed again. Damn! Question: I turned myself in this time!
John could imagine that his surrender would inevitably make Dusty worship him even more, but it was precisely because of this that John's path to Dusty was blocked from asking Dusty for help. No matter how John made it up, no matter how John deceived, the Celestial Dragons couldn't explain it, as long as John escaped, his country would suffer, and his glorious image in Dusty's mind would collapse in an instant.
Here, the only role that Dusty can play is probably to prove that John did not escape by himself, but was "forcibly kidnapped" by someone when John was fortunate enough to be rescued!
There are other effects!
"Colonel John, I've heard that the prison food is always bad, so I secretly brought you something to eat. ā
Coming to the outside of the prison, Dusty whispered, after all, she still had some violations of the law by doing this kind of thing. Of course, in Dusty's mind, the only thing she could do for John now was such a small thing.
"What about me? without mine?"
Bonnie on the other side looked a little excited, she was called a gluttonous girl, and she had never eaten enough since she was caught.
Without saying a word, John took the bento from Dusty's hand and threw it directly to Bonnie, instantly blocking the woman's mouth. In this regard, a trace of loss flashed in Dusty's eyes, but he didn't say anything.
"I'm sorry, Colonel John. I don't know how to help you, I know that in the Chambord Islands, you actually want to save those poor slaves, but who would have angered the Draconians. Everyone knows that you are a good person, and good people should also be rewarded, but ććććć Dusty's voice choked, in her eyes, Colonel John was the best and best person in the world, but why did such a person always suffer injustice!
"It's okay, everything has to be on the bright side, no matter what, at least I won't die this time, will I!" John reached out and gently touched Dusty's head. (Yo, touch your head to kill)
"Colonel John ~~woo~~"
"By the way, why are you here? Is Smoker there?" John stopped sensationalizing and shifted the subject to what he cared about without a trace. Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, John couldn't give up, if he had a chance to escape, but because he didn't try, John would not cry to death at that time!
Dusty may not be able to help much, or even take the initiative to help at all, but John can get enough information from Dusty. For example, what other main combat forces do the people who escorted them this time besides the Akainu? And how do these combat forces usually divide labor and rest and rotate?
Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and John believes that this intelligence will definitely work at a critical moment!
