Chapter 10 Words Like Knives
"Is it impossible? How do you know it's impossible without trying?" said Crockdahl with a smirk, "If you ......don't try, you'll never be possible! And, if you don't try it, are you just here to resent your own incompetence, to feel sorry for yourself, to feel sorry for yourself, and to pray for a miracle?"
"Instead of feeling sorry for yourself here, try to get up. The pen and the fun www.biquge.info always lamenting the past, but it is even more stupid, Ace ......"
"I'm ......" Ace's voice was full of pain, "it's too late......"
"Is it too late...... When you think it's too late, maybe it's the right time!"
"You know, it's a gamble, and we're all gamblers. Crockdahl chuckled and said, "If you succeed, everyone will be happy, and if you lose the bet, it will be a big deal...... And you, Ace, have lost everything, what do you have to lose? Are you afraid? Do you want to throw away even your last bit of attachment, a little bit of backbone and dignity as a man...... 'Fire Fist' Ace ......"
"But, I'm ......" Ace clasped his head in his hands, caught in a struggle, and kept ravaging his hair.
Crockdahl smiled, suddenly turned his head, looked at the burly fishman next to Ace's prison and said, "And Mr. Jinping, who has listened to it for a long time." Don't you want to come and be part of this great project?"
"Is it a plan to send you to death?" said Jinping with a cold snort of disdain, "The old man disdains to participate. ”
"Aha~ The first time I heard that the great 'Sea Man' Jinping was actually afraid of death...... Crockdahl exaggeratedly, if he was given two hands, he would definitely be applauding at this time, "Whitebeard is about to be involved in a conspiracy, and then die, and you who are deeply favored by Whitebeard actually stand by and watch, tsk...... Is this what you claim to be chivalrous?"
"The old chivalry doesn't need you to comment!" Jinping frowned, and the words he wanted to say became like this when he came to his mouth, and his gaze couldn't help but soften a little when he saw Ace's appearance out of the corner of his eye. After all, as Crockdahl said, he was greatly favored by Whitebeard.
When he followed Tagore, Jinping and the Sun Pirates attacked the Chambord Islands and rescued their fellow Fishmen who were trapped there as slaves, but they were helped by Whitebeard, and they were able to succeed because he held back the navy. Even if Tagore was ambushed and killed by the navy later, it was with the help of Whitebeard that the Sun Pirates were not completely wiped out, and he personally rescued him, which also saved his life.
However, although all this is true, although it is against the chivalry he pursues to sit back and watch Whitebeard die, the reality cannot make him make the decision to follow. The root of everything lies in Fish-Man Island, his compatriots. Followed the Sun Pirates, for the Fish-Man, and then received Whitebeard's grace, also for the Fish-Man, and the Fish-Man Pirates were created for the Fish-Man, becoming the Seven Martial Seas, and also for the Fish-Man. Nowadays, isn't volunteering to go to prison also for the sake of the fish people?
For the sake of the fish man, Jinping would rather have his own heart and go against his chivalrous ways, but he can only endure the pain to make such a decision. If he chooses to accompany Crockdahl, then Fish-Man Island will most likely be doomed. Even in the Seven Martial Seas, even if the Fish-Man Pirates are very strong, even if the qualities of the Fish-Man are more than eight times that of humans, they are still as small as ants in the face of the huge combat power of the Navy and the government.
This bet is okay for others, but he can't and doesn't dare to play.
Jinping sat there cross-legged with his arms folded with his eyes closed, as if he didn't pay attention to Crockdahl anymore, but in fact, he just didn't want to see Ace's appearance. There was a battle between him and Ace, and it was also in that battle that he and Ace had a good relationship, and when he saw Ace now, to be honest, he was very sad, and even wanted to help him in his heart. However, on Fish-Man Island, the interests of the Fish-Man clan are always a mountain in front of him, which cannot be crossed.
Even if, he received the favor of Whitebeard, even if, Ace was his friend, even if, because of his chivalrous ways...... None of them can compare with the interests of the fish-people. Even now, his heartache is still like a knife. Closing your eyes is just an escape.
"Hehehehe...... It's really funny, I didn't expect the famous 'Sea Hero' to be a fool without righteousness, tsk......" Crockdahl's mouth made a voice that seemed to be contempt, but he found that Jinping really deserved to be one of the Seven Martial Seas, and his cultivation was so good, he was not moved at all, and his heart moved and he said, "I thought what a smart guy Jinping would be who led the fishmen to fight the world, but I didn't expect it to end up being just a guy who didn't know the situation, which disappointed me." Sure enough, it's better to meet than to be famous......"
"Crockdahl, you don't need to provoke any more, the old man will not be moved by your words. Jinping said, seemingly calm, but there was anger in his words. No one likes to be slandered by others, especially a strong man like Jinping, and Crockdahl denigrates what he is proud of.
"Really...... Hehehehe, funny......" Crockdahl chuckled, and continued, "In that case, then I'll speak my mind!"
"Thou shalt do it at will. Jinping closed his eyes again.
"Hahaha...... Jinping, as far as I know, the peace and tranquility of Fish-Man Island for so many years seems to be because it was assigned to his territory by Whitebeard, and no one dared to go against the 'Four Emperors' Whitebeard, and no one went to trouble there, and of course you can't ignore your role...... However, don't you understand what will happen to Fish-Man Island when Whitebeard is gone and the Whitebeard Pirates are falling apart?"
"Hmph! Old decay doesn't need you to teach! Fish-Man Island naturally has its own way!" said Jin Ping coldly.
"Do you continue to send people under the fence? Without the protection of Whitebeard, there will naturally be other forces to occupy it, maybe the navy, maybe the revolutionary army, or maybe other pirates...... However, the most likely thing is that person, the fellow 'Four Emperors', is a big slave owner! Besides, that guy Doflamingo won't give up such a good place......, right?
"It's really interesting to think about! Do you think that if you compromise like this, you will let the navy open up, no, the fish-people are fish-people after all, and even the giant clan has a place in the navy, but the fish-people don't, don't you know the reason? Racial discrimination is not just a casual talk......
Seeing how his face had changed in his words, Crockdahl smiled. There is another powerful combat force, and he will be pulled onto the thief ship.
