People in One Piece are so good-looking - Chapter 388
c386 I quit
What is this going to do?
Ghost Spider and Flying Squirrel were puzzled at first, but soon their faces showed emotion.
Only a distance is seen.
There were more than 6,000 slaves on the five ships. After gathering at the stern of the ship, they all knelt down and bowed to the Thunder Eagle.
“Lieutenant General, listen.”
They were too far apart, and the slaves’ voices were mixed in the whining sea breeze, so they couldn’t be heard clearly.
“Goodbye, Mr. Nuo Xia…”
“Your…great kindness…will be remembered…”
“thank you……”
Some people cried loudly, some waved desperately, and some people kowtowed dozens of times in an invisible corner before finally standing up with tears streaming down their faces.
Nuo Xia did not raise his head, but listened quietly for a while, smiled and sighed, and whispered a few words to the communications officer beside him.
After a while.
The Thunderhawk slowly turned around and headed in the direction of Malinfando.
Before turning back, white sails fluttered and flags were played.
“Bon Voyage.”
…
boom!
A punch hit the table hard, documents flew everywhere, and in the gaps, Will’s face turned pale.
“A bunch of rubbish! Trash!”
The veins on his forehead jumped, and he roared angrily at the returning lieutenants in front of him: “Ten warships! Five lieutenants, tens of thousands of navy!”
“It’s more than enough to wipe out the rebels of a country! How can you let thousands of slaves run away?! If such a simple task fails, what’s the use of the navy in supporting you! And what do the people above think of our headquarters!”
The lieutenant generals lowered their heads slightly and remained silent, with different expressions.
Huo Shaoshan was holding a cigar in his mouth, with a mocking smile on his lips from an angle that Weir couldn’t see, while Bucker seemed to be holding something in, and glanced angrily at the figure in the middle from time to time…
The one in the middle is naturally Nuo Xia.
He did not lower his head and kept looking straight at Weir across the desk. There was no emotion on his handsome face.
“White Dragon!”
Weir finally noticed Nuo Xia’s expression, and became even more angry. He stared at him with bloodshot eyes, roared fiercely, and spitted:
“It doesn’t matter to you! Right! Of course it doesn’t matter to you! In my opinion, you bastard is just deliberately letting things slip!”
“Otherwise, can I escape from your famous Bailong Nuoxia?”
Nuo Xia still stood there expressionlessly, not moving.
The spittle that splashed out was quietly electrolyzed before it touched the skin of his cheek, turning it into hydrogen and oxygen gas, which dispersed in the air.
“You can freely testify, and you can spit on people without evidence.”
He looked at the furious Weir, smiled and said, “This is not what a marshal should do, Mr. Weir.”
“No evidence?”
Weir was slightly startled at first, then laughed angrily and said sternly, “You are talking to me about evidence at this time? Bailong! Do you know how big of a mistake you have made!”
“The entire Navy Headquarters, and even the World Government, have been disgraced. Regardless of whether you deliberately let the water go, all the slaves ran away after the mission failed. This is an indisputable fact! As the commander-in-chief, you have the greatest responsibility, and you cannot absolve yourself of the blame!”
boom!
The more he spoke, the angrier he became. Weir slammed his palm on the table. With a loud bang, the entire desk broke into two halves.
Several lieutenant generals did not dare to express their anger. Even the smile on Huo Shaoshan’s face gradually faded away, and they turned to look at Nuo Xia worriedly.
“Suspended!”
The desk collapsed, and Weir’s anger seemed to dissipate a little. He stared at Nuo Xia and said coldly:
“From now on, I will be suspended for two months, the maximum punishment will be recorded, and all annual leave wages will be cancelled! I will go back and reflect on it later!”
“You are not allowed to go out within two months. This department will fully investigate what you did during this arrest!”
“Professional soldiers should have unconditional obedience to orders as their bounden duty!”
“If it is found that you did it intentionally for your ridiculous justice like in the White Town incident last time, then what awaits you is to be punished for multiple crimes. The result will not be as simple as it is now. I understand… …What are you going to do! Bailong!”
Before he finished speaking, the coldness in Weir’s face instantly dissipated, replaced by a face full of shock and anger——
Because at this moment, Nuo Xia raised his right arm leisurely, and a bright blue electric light danced in the palm of his hand…
Damn it!
How dare this guy!
Weir’s pupils narrowed and the hairs on his back stood up. Almost instantly, he subconsciously took two steps back. A wisp of dark hair came out from his chest and quickly spread all over his body.
In just half a second, the powerful and iron-like armed domineering energy covered his whole body, and the whole person seemed to be wearing a thick layer of iron armor.
After barely feeling a sense of security, he stared at Nuo Xia again, but was shocked to find that the other party had no intention of taking action at all.
Instead, a piece of white paper shot out from the palm of the flashing thunder light, slowed down, and fluttered towards him…
What a shame!
The strange looks from the surrounding lieutenant generals made Mr. Weir blush. He grabbed the piece of paper in embarrassment. The armor on his body faded away like a tide. While taking it apart, he asked in a cold voice:
“What’s this?”
Before Nuo Xia could respond, his expression suddenly changed, because after opening the envelope, there were two eye-catching black characters on the unfolded paper:
“Resignation”.
Will suddenly raised his head in disbelief, just in time to meet Nuo Xia’s smiling expression:
“After all, you are the marshal of the navy. Mr. Weir, don’t be so nervous. If I really want to kill you, your tortoise shell will be of no use.”
Turtle shell?
Will’s face was filled with anger again, and before he could speak, Nuo Xia opposite him was already laughing lazily.
“Everything that needs to be said is on paper. I won’t play house with you here. Marshal, I’d better avoid suspension or anything like that. I’ll see you again in the future.”
He waved his hands casually and turned away.
The figure gradually disappeared outside the door.
Weir was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and he stared at the departing figure for a moment, unable to say a word.
But at this moment, the sea breeze blowing from the window made the letter in his hand rattle, and he subconsciously looked down.
What kind of resignation letter is this? It has no beginning, no reason, no signature date, and only four black characters larger than the title:
“I’m quitting”
…
after an hour.
A piece of horrifying news first circulated among the small circles of the Navy’s top brass, and then quickly spread throughout Malinfando.
——Nosha resigned.
The entire headquarters was in an uproar for an instant.
Some senior officials who probably knew the details of the incident through acquaintances, such as Warring States, Kizaru, He and others, all changed their expressions and rushed to Nuo Xia’s home as soon as possible.
If you want to persuade Nuo Xia to be patient for the time being, you must not leave the navy directly just because of impulse.
And below are the middle-level captains and the lower-level sailors.
However, he knew nothing about the real resignation process, and the gossip spreading all over the sky became more and more sinister. In just one afternoon, it turned into Will taking advantage of his status as the new marshal, deliberately making things difficult, and taking all the blame. This was imposed on Lieutenant General Bai Long, forcing the latter to resign angrily.
Is this justified?
In terms of status, as the marshal, Weir is naturally much higher than Nuoxia, but in terms of prestige and popularity, Nuoxia is the top existence in the entire naval headquarters. Even Zefa Warring States cannot compare with him, let alone just airborne. Coming from Vail.
The anger spread instantly, igniting the entire Marineland, from the port, to the training ground, to the barracks and dormitories…
Whether they were practicing or resting, even the warships that had already sailed out of the harbor and were about to go out to perform field missions also turned around and turned back.
At this time, no matter who shouted, there was always a response, and more and more sailors gathered towards the fortress building angrily.
They want justice for Lieutenant General White Dragon, whom they admire and admire, and Marshal Weir, who wears the same pants as the World Government, for an explanation.
At dusk, the square in front of the fortress was densely packed with more than 100,000 figures, and the entire fortress building was surrounded by water.
June of the year 1507 in the Haiyuan calendar.
Because of a resignation letter, an unprecedented collective mutiny broke out in Marinefando for hundreds of years!
…
At night.
After sending away the last batch of high-level acquaintances who came to persuade, Nuo Xia came to the courtyard.
Under the moonlight, only Aokiji was left, drinking sherry in silence.
“What’s wrong? You haven’t left yet?”
Nuo Xia pulled up a chair and sat down across from him, and asked with a smile, “You’ve already had dinner, don’t you still want to have a late-night snack at my place?”
This guy was supposed to go back to the G-5 branch at noon, but when he heard about the mutiny in the headquarters, he immediately abandoned the warship and rushed back to the headquarters on his bicycle.
“Even Teacher Zefa came here in person… You really can’t listen to the advice. Why don’t you just tolerate it for a few years and wait for Mr. Warring States to take over? Do you have to resign now?”
Qingzhi raised his head and asked in a low voice.
“Well, it’s decided.”
“Why?”
Nuo Xia leisurely poured herself a glass of wine, but did not answer directly, “The moonlight tonight is quite good, it reminds me of that year… Well, do you remember the first conversation we had under the moonlight?”
First conversation under the moonlight?
Qingzhi looked at the handsome black-haired young man in front of him and was stunned for a while, but his thoughts instantly flew back to that night seven years ago.
…
At that time, as a lieutenant general, he temporarily acted as the chief instructor. With a ship full of new recruits, he completed the actual combat assessment from Beihai and returned to his headquarters.
When the route is windless.
He asked Nosha, who was an ordinary recruit at the time, a question.
“”For example, justice, young man, this is the word that will be engraved on your cloak after you graduate. What do you think of these two words…? “”
“He turned his head to look at the boy, his eyes full of confusion, and his messy hair looked like a chicken coop under the moonlight.”
“”There’s nothing to say about this, Lieutenant General. Everyone’s idea of justice is different, so just stick to it and implement it. “”
“”But this is exactly the problem, young man…””
“At that time, he looked up at the night sky. The night was particularly dark that night. The crescent moon was like a hook, and only a few sparse stars were dotted in the endless night sky.”
“”For example, you are the star now. “”
“He pointed at one of them and said quietly to the young man, “You are obviously trying hard to persevere, but the light emitted is still very little. The darkness around you is still the same, so deep that you can’t see the bottom. If it were you, this What should we do when the time comes? “”
“This is a question to Nuo Xia, and it seems to be a question to himself.”
“”Keep going. “”
“”With a little heat and a little light, let alone stars, even if they are just fireflies, they can do their best in the dark without waiting for the torch. “”
“The young man answered without hesitation, as if it was a matter of course.”
“”…Does that little light mean anything? “”
“”certainly. “”
“The young man also smiled and pointed at the few sparse stars.”
“”One more thing, you are wrong. Those stars are actually much bigger than the sun. The reason why they are just a little bit in our eyes is just because we are too far away and cannot see them clearly. “”
“”But for the planets around them, that beam of light is extremely dazzling, enough to illuminate and warm the entire world. “”
“Is there still such a thing?”
“He raised his head and squinted at the stars in the distance.”
“For some reason, he thought of the civilians he had saved and the pirates he had killed over the years, as well as Savulo who died in front of him a few months ago, and Robin who ran away in tears…”
“”Didn’t you just ask me what I think about justice? “”
“”I can do my best to make this dark world a little brighter, even if it is just as dark as a firefly. This is the way of justice that I pursue. “”
“He withdrew his gaze from the night sky and looked at the boy again in a daze.”
“”But I think things are not that pessimistic, right? After all, our navy has so many like-minded people. No matter how small the fireflies are, when they are gathered together, they can at least illuminate a large area. “”
“The young man’s eyes met his, and he suddenly burst into laughter, not in a formal manner.”
“Of course, people’s dreams must be lofty after all. Who can say what will happen in the future, what if my little firefly, fluttering and fluttering, can climb up to the sky and become a star, and suddenly burst out with a light that is more dazzling than the sun. What about the light that sweeps away all the darkness around you? “”
“He was stunned for a long time and suddenly burst into laughter.”
“What an arrogant brat, young man, your ambition seems to have been exposed. “”
“Under the moonlight, the boy didn’t say anything anymore, he was speechless.”

PS: Resigning and leaving for a few years is for the main plot, which is different from defecting. The protagonist has always been a navy from the beginning to the end, and it is impossible to become a pirate.
