"It's so strange! Why on earth they are afraid?"
Even after leaving the store, coby still felt very puzzled, "It's understandable that they are afraid of zoro, but why are they even more afraid of Colonel morgan?"
This prompted him to think about one of the possibilities.
That was a possibility that he had never thought of before.
As an individual in a specific sense, the marines may not represent justice, it just happens that some people who choose justice become the navy, that's all!
This is simply unconventional.
in the past.
But he would never think so.
Luffy put his hands in the pockets of his pants and made the simplest reasoning: "Maybe it's because he did something bad!"
"This is indeed the most likely reason, but he is a marine captain!"
Coby said this, and the words about Naruto reappeared in his mind.
Hard to do.
Is this really not possible?
But while he was struggling, the figures of both parties had unknowingly arrived in front of the marine base.
"This... marine base."
Coby's pupils shrank slightly.
Luffy raised his head, looked at this magnificent building, and said, "It's really magnificent up close!
"Go in! Coby, I will send it here."
"This... I haven't thought about it clearly yet. Can becoming a marine really fulfill my dream?"
Coby was still confused, but saw Luffy running towards the wall excitedly, "Wait, Luffy, where are you going?"
"Let me see, where is the zoro...?"
Luffy looked around excitedly, then fell back to where he was before.
Coby reminded: "How is it possible that you can just pick a place and see it? Maybe he is locked in a certain cell."
"Not necessarily! Come with me and see what I find!"
"what?"
with curiosity.
Coby followed, and after climbing up the wall, he saw a man hanging on a cross in the distance, wearing a green cloth on his head. He was obviously dying, but with a
kind of arrogance that despised all things....
That sense of dominance hit him, and coby was immediately knocked to the ground in shock.
"Can I, a coward like me, really carry out justice?"
Similar questions arise again.
I didn't get the answer some time ago.
This doubt resurfaced at this time, and the answer I got was infinitely close to negative.
"Huh? Why did you fall?" came the young man's questioning voice, interrupting his self-pity.
"No...nothing, I just think he looks so intimidating." Coby climbed up and felt that the fear in his heart had dissipated a lot.
Recalling the question raised by Naruto again, he suddenly found that a new impulse seemed to have arisen in his heart.
Is it impulsive?
It's still a kind of awareness...
"So he was tied to a cross?" Luffy now understood the situation here and said confidently, "That rope looks too easy to break!"
"Hey! You over there!"Zoro's voice came through at this time, "Come here and help me... untie this rope?
"I have been tied up for nine days and I am really tired."
Luffy said, "Look, that guy is smiling."
"You haven't eaten for nine days, but you still have such a determination!" Coby swallowed, staring at the pressure and looking at Zoro.
But I saw him talking about reward: "I will thank you, and those wanted criminals will be regarded as reward!"
Coby saw that Luffy seemed to be interested, and immediately said: "Luffy, didn't you say you wanted to see it in action? How do you know whether he is a good guy or a bad guy before untying the rope?"
"It doesn't matter. If he is a bad guy, just beat him away." Luffy said firmly with a smile, "I'm very strong!!"
Coby, who has never seen Luffy fight with the King of the Sea, has a hard time imagining where Luffy's confidence comes from.
Just infected by this kind of confidence.
But at this moment.
A little girl followed and climbed up the wall to deliver food, which temporarily interrupted Luffy's behavior.
"I made rice balls for you! Big brother, you have been tied up all the time, you must be hungry!"The little girl's smile is pure and enthusiastic.
Coby was stunned for a while: "Why, why..."
"Why does she have such a high impression of zoro?"
"Maybe it's because this guy has done something good!"
Luffy's analysis is very simple in logic, but sometimes it is closer to the truth of the matter.
What is called evil is not necessarily evil, and what is called righteous is not necessarily righteous. This is what coby learned today, and it shattered his three views.
However, at the time, he only accepted the news logically.
at this point.
As the little girl came in to deliver the meal, the marine came to show off their power, completely showing the reality of the world in front of him.
"Throw this kid out!"
the son of Colonel morgan, emphasized this order again after his subordinates did not comply with it when he first issued it.
His subordinates threw the little girl against the wall.
This distance and height would be extremely harmful even for a child in the nautical world.
Luffy happened to be there and swooped over to catch the little girl, using the rubber fruit's ability to cushion all the momentum so that she didn't suffer any damage.
Then he stood up, dusted himself off, and listened to the sounds in the wall.
Here.
Coby hurried to catch up. After confirming that the little girl was okay, he said angrily: "He is really too much.
How can such a person appear in the marine!"
"That big brother, he needs to eat. He hasn't eaten for nine days." The little girl was still concerned about this matter.
Coby comforted: "Why don't you follow and avoid this place first! Luffy will help.
"He has the intention of recruiting that person as a companion. In the short term, he will not sit back and let him starve to death."
The little girl looked at the wall and nodded hesitantly.
After moving to a safer street, coby breathed a sigh of relief and asked doubtfully: "That swordsman is obviously a legendary villain, why did you want to save him?"
The little girl shook her head: "Big brother is not a bad person. He was arrested because of me." Coby's pupils were shaken again.
After calming down for a while, he asked: "Can you tell me in detail why he was arrested?"
"Big brother... he killed the wolf raised by Colonel Morgan's son.
"Before this, everyone was so scared because of the wolf running around!! And after he killed the wolf, Colonel Morgan's son arrested his eldest brother in order to retaliate.
"It's all Morgen's son's fault. If he disobeys even a little bit, he will be sentenced to death immediately. Everyone is scared."
Coby pressed his temples and truly realized a fact.
If he's going to do justice.
My enemies are not only pirates who do evil, but also navy who wear military uniforms and do evil...
And when fighting against pirates, you can also look forward to the help of the navy behind you.
To confront the navy, which enforces a harsh regime.
Behind him...
There will be no one around!!
"You guys are here! Please pick the rice ball for me." Luffy's voice came at this moment, causing the zoro to shout in surprise: "Really you want eat this?"
"Of course!
He ate all the rice balls with gusto, not a single one was left!"
The little girl was sad and completely bringing coby back to reality from his fear.
He suddenly discovered...
I don't seem to be afraid anymore.
