27. Abner's Justice
Even though he had already experienced several previous voyages, Abner was still amazed at the strange celestial phenomena that arose on the Great Voyage.
It was as if at this moment, Abner was standing on Karp's dog-headed battleship in the windless zone, and a thousand meters away was a post-apocalyptic scene of lightning and thunder and a roaring wind.
But who would have thought that just three hours ago, this kobold battleship had just passed through a sea of icebergs and snow......
"Boy! Isn't it amazing? But this is the great route, the magical sea where danger and opportunity coexist! ”
"Back then, the old man was with Sengoku and Xiaohe, and defeated one pirate group after another in this sea area, and sent one pirate after another to the undersea prison! Now that I think about it, it's been decades......"
Just as Abner lamented the unpredictable weather on the great voyage, Karp, wearing the cloak of justice, stood silently beside Abner and sighed.
"Karp-sama!"
"Abner, what do you think of the pirates sailing above the seas!"
In Karp's seemingly casual question, Abner's nerves instantly tensed, after the first wave of strength test, the second wave of character and position test, also came inadvertently?
Where there are people, there is fighting, even in the Navy Headquarters.
Although there are many factions in the Navy Headquarters, the most important factions among them are undoubtedly hawks and doves.
The representative of the hawks is Akainu Sakasky, one of the current three admirals of the Navy, who insists on absolute justice! Either right or wrong, black and white!
Among the naval hawks led by Akainu, all pirates are evil, and it is worth it to pay even some sacrifices to eliminate them.
Such a tough style has won the support of a large number of high-level leaders within the Navy Headquarters.
On the other hand, the representative of the dove faction is Pheasant Kuzan, one of the current three generals, who insists on ideal justice! Distinguish between good and evil and know right from wrong!
In the naval doves led by the pheasant, there is also a difference between good and evil among the pirates, and there is naturally no objection to eliminating those evil pirates, but it is not advisable to cause casualties among the people in order to eliminate the pirates.
Compared with the hawks of the Akainu, the doves of the pheasant have received much less support, but this part of the concept of the pheasant is faintly in line with some of the ideas of the Warring States and Karp, so it is enough to fight against the Akainu in the naval headquarters.
And now Karp asked himself what he thought of the pirates, no doubt to see which side he was leaning on.
For a moment, Abner couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.
Rationally speaking, it is undoubtedly the best choice to fall into Karp's camp without hesitation.
But in Abner's character, neither the pheasant's dovish style nor some of Karp's practices could satisfy Abner.
In the case of the pheasant, his justice is too idealistic; And Karp, probably because of his deep contact with Roger, some of his ideas can't help but be influenced by Roger, and he always seems much more tolerant of those guys who have dreams and fight for them.
After a little thought, Abner decided that he would stick to his idea.
"Pirates are just a group of parasites that do not produce anything, sail on the sea for the purpose of burning, killing and looting, and frantically suck blood!"
"Yes, the old man thought the same way back then, until the old man met Roger's guy, I learned that among the pirates, there was also a group of people who did not aim for gold and silver treasures, but just went to sea to pursue dreams and adventures!"
"Master Karp, Roger's approach is admirable, but he deserves to die!"
"Uh......"
Karp looked at Abner in a slightly surprised manner, clearly surprised by Abner's conclusion.
"Roger, he's adventurous, that's right! He was right to find the legendary Great Treasure! He's wrong in not calling himself a pirate! He was wrong about the words he shouted at the execution! ”
"Want my treasure? If you want, I can give it all to you, go find it! I put all my treasures there! ”
"Just because of this sentence, how many people have gone to sea and set sail, how many people have lifted Sven's face and turned into murderous pirates, and how many ordinary people have fallen into the killing of pirates!"
"So, Roger damn it!"
Sharp eyes stared at Abner, and Abner did not have the slightest intention of dodging, and met the sharp eyes head-on without showing weakness.
"Maybe you're right......"
After a moment, Karp slowly removed his eyes and whispered.
"So Abner...... If it were you, how would you deal with a pirate like Roger? ”
"Karp-sama! Our navy exists to maintain the stability of the seas and to protect the safety and wealth of countless people! As long as they don't offend these things, what does it matter to me what they want to do! ”
"Huh?"
Karp couldn't help but look at Abner again, which was completely different from his previous attitude.
"Then what do you think of the system of our navy [His Majesty's Seven Martial Seas]?"
"I don't know who came up with this idea, but in my opinion, it is indeed a good idea, and it has greatly improved the deterrent power of our navy to the entire sea!"
Another unexpected answer, and just as Karp's brow furrowed slightly, Abner's voice took a turn for the worse.
"The [Seven Martial Seas] system is a genius idea, but I don't know why there is such a thing as [Legitimate Plundering Rights], which is simply throwing the dignity of our navy on the ground and being trampled on, it is really a great irony and shame!"
"Abner, if you had enough strength, which of the Seven Martial Seas would you choose?"
"Hancock or Doflamingo!"
"Why did you choose these two guys?"
"There's no reason for it, just because they've destabilized the sea and violated what I think is justice!"
"It has destabilized the sea and violated the ...... justice"
After savoring it, Karp understood something.
Abner's belief in justice is to maintain the stability of the sea, and to protect the safety and wealth of the people on it, and both Hancock and Doflamingo have used their plundering power more than once, which naturally dislikes Abner.
In a sense, the justice that Abner insisted on was different from the tyranny of the Akainu and was more inclined to the idea of the pheasant, but ......
If Abner thinks that something is destabilizing the sea, then he may be even more tyrannical than Akainu.
This thought quickly flashed through Karp's mind, and Karp sighed heavily, and then leaned against the wall of the boat: "You young people, what a headache! Aha! ”
