Chapter 529: Forced Conscription? Go to the Kingdom of Lemon (Part II)
"Hiss~~ Whew!"
Smoker exhaled a puff of smoke rings, stood on the roof of a tall building, looked at the soldiers cleaning the battlefield below, and then turned his head to look at Vivian and said, "Other countries, are they really trapped in purgatory?" ”
"There's no way around it."
Vivian stood on the other side, and also took a sip of his cigar, "They don't have enough troops now, and if they want to expand the team, they can only be effective in a short period of time through conscription, and it is still compulsory conscription." ”
"So what do we do now? Or do you use this method against other countries? ”
"Hmm... But you have to wait for the news of the intelligence officers, if it is a country like the Lemon Kingdom that has begun to force conscription, you can only think about it in the long term and think of another way. ”
"Why?" Smoker asked.
"Because. . Civilians' families are controlled by the military, and I don't think anyone values money more than family affection, right? Vivian Road.
"Indeed." Smoker nodded.
Yin Disi, who had been following Vivian, suddenly tugged at the corner of his clothes at this time and said, "Brother Vivian, don't you go to my hometown to save the people of the Lemon Kingdom?" ”
"Why don't you go?" Vivian rubbed Yindis's dirty hair.
To be honest, since beating his wife Domino and becoming pregnant with a child, he is now less and less resistant to human cubs, although the little girl in front of him is already ten years old, he still subconsciously sees the other party as his own daughter.
Maybe it's because I'm too old now?
"That.. If it drags on any longer, a lot of people will die there. Yin Disi continued.
As he spoke, tears rolled in his eyes again.
After her grandfather's death, she fled the Lemon Kingdom overnight, and even the corpse did not have time to be buried, but set it on fire along with her own house, and then boarded the ship driven by the coalition forces, and used her fruit ability to leave with them.
The rest couldn't be more obvious.
A week later, Yin Disi's "supply ship" docked in the Taro Kingdom, and she took the opportunity to sneak into the town, steal supplies everywhere and start living, which has lasted until now, and it has been five days.
As for the aunt she spoke of: . . She made up the name to test whether Vivian cared about the people as rumored, and now it seems that Vivian's brother is indeed a very good person.
"I know, so didn't I decide to go to Lemon Town tonight?"
Vivian said, bouncing off the cigarette butt in his hand.
However, Smoker on the side said: "Didn't this little girl say just now, has her hometown been forcibly conscripted, you go now, in addition to fighting with people, even if you disguise yourself as a civilian, you will be dragged to join the army." ”
"All I want is to join the army."
Vivian smiled, "What better way to defeat them than to infiltrate the enemy barracks?" ”
Smoker: (⊙o⊙)!
His eyes widened suddenly, and he reacted.
Yin Disi, who was on the side, raised her little hand again at this time: "I.. I'm going too! ”
"You're a girl, even if you go, people won't pull you to join the army." Vivian looked at the little girl.
He knew that the boy was desperate for revenge, so much so that he was out of danger but still wanted to go back.
"I know, but they recruit medics in addition to soldiers. My grandfather was a doctor, and when I was a child, I often saw him treat patients and save people, so naturally he also knew a little bit of medical skills, so I was confident that they would definitely admit me. ”
】
Childhood?
You're also a kid now, okay?
Vivian picked at his forehead a little helplessly, "But you know, that place is very dangerous, even if you manage to infiltrate the army, what role will it play?" I won't be able to protect you. ”
"I don't need your protection."
Yin Disi raised her little face and said very stubbornly: "I saw with my own eyes that they beat my grandfather to serious injuries, and the faces of those soldiers are clearly reflected in my mind, and I must avenge my grandfather with my own hands." ”
Silent.
Smoker on the side glanced at Yin Disi.
He could feel Yin Disi's determination and anger at the moment.
But how easy is it for a ten-year-old ghost to take revenge with his own hands?
Despite her Devil Fruit abilities, how difficult is it for a ten-year-old imp to kill a soldier in the army, and there is more than one soldier, without systematic training.
I'm afraid that Yin Disi's chances of dying in the hands of the other party are even greater.
But what can be done then?
Vivian wanted to refuse the little girl, but the firmness in Yin Disi's eyes undoubtedly told him that even if he refused, the little girl would still choose to return to her hometown alone.
Therefore, he could only sigh and say: "Promise me, don't be too impulsive, and when I join you after the turmoil over there, you will do it again, do you understand?" ”
"Got it!"
The little girl smiled again.
She was very happy at the moment, but she was happy that Vivian had promised her to take her back to her hometown for revenge, even though she knew that she would most likely die in the process of revenge.
But she didn't care at all.
Because.. She doesn't have any relatives in this world anymore.
So, that evening.
Vivian rode alone in the submarine, took Yindis, and disappeared silently above the sea of the harbor under the watchful eyes of Smoker and Dusty.
...
Early the next morning.
Hundreds of soldiers walk through a village near the beach in the Kingdom of Lemons.
At the entrance of the village, an officer wearing black armor and holding a big sword glanced around at the group of male villagers who were being detained and forcibly taken away, and then looked at his subordinates and asked, "Have they all been cleaned?" ”
"The looting is clean, and the men in the entire village have been taken away by us, leaving only some old and weak women and children, do you see now?"
"Bring all the women from fourteen to forty-five years old, and pick the beautiful ones to stay."
"And what about the rest?"
"Keep it, plant the land, catch fish or something, and barely create some wealth for this place. Of course, if there is resistance, just kill it. ”
"Understood!"
The soldiers saluted, and then hurried back to the village.
About five minutes later.
"Report, there's a guy in this room!"
A soldier suddenly poked his head out of a thatched hut and shouted at the troops.
