"It is undeniable that the Navy, as an enforcer of justice, is indeed effectively curbing pirates on the sea.
But what stands above the justice of the navy is an even uglier evil. As long as it is still the navy, it cannot resist the world government, let alone punish the Celestial Dragons.
So if that's the case, this navy is not doing anything right. It can only attack pirates, but it turns a blind eye to greater evils. Such justice is undoubtedly narrow-minded!"
Wood would say such words, partly to convince Gion, and partly because it was also Wood's inner thoughts.
In fact, at the beginning, Wood planned to join Monkey D. Dorag's revolutionary army. However, unfortunately, when Wood went to sea, Dorag had just left the navy.
And even if he wanted to join the Revolutionary Army, Wood could not find a base for the Revolutionary Army at that time.
Wood will not comment on whether the revolutionary army is just for the time being, but it is undeniable that the Tianlong people are definitely evil, and the only existence in the world that dares to challenge them is Dorag's revolutionary army.
"But if I haven't forgotten, you should have said that you hate pirates the most.
Once you betray the navy now, you won't even be able to be considered an ordinary person or a bounty hunter, you will only be labeled as a pirate and have a bounty on your head."
"I heard from the marines who defected with you before that you killed all the prisoners you released from the Impel City.
If this is the case, then there is still room for improvement in this matter. Come back to the headquarters with me. If the Warring States Marshal understands the whole story, maybe this matter will turn around."
Wood's biggest crime so far is to release more than a hundred prisoners in Impel Down City, but these people have now been killed by Wood.
Now that the director of Impel City has just died, if he relies on the Warring States Marshal and has his own connections in the headquarters, he will indeed have some room for maneuver in this matter.
For example, Wood was not the criminal who released the prisoners, but those prisoners who escaped due to Shiki's escape from prison, and Wood was responsible for chasing down these prisoners and eventually annihilating them all.
Although this reason seems to be nonsense, with the energy of Gion, it is indeed possible.
First of all, there was Lieutenant General Tsuru in Gion who was as close as a sister, and then she and Wood were both students of Zefa, and were also appreciated by the Warring States Marshal.
Almost most of the decision-makers in the entire Navy Headquarters have something to do with Gion, saying that she is a perfect second generation and has no problems at all.
Gion believed that as long as Wood showed his true strength and value in front of Marshal Sengoku and others, and coupled with his personal connections, as long as the reward order had not been issued, everything would still be possible.
"I will never return to the Navy. I will enforce justice in my own way. If you still consider me a friend, don't come here to get in the way again."
Facing Gion's persuasion, Wood showed a look of determination.
If you want to be a good undercover agent, your expressions must be perfect. If you can't deceive yourself, how can you deceive others?
"If that's the case, then I will take you back with my own hands, even if I break your limbs!"
The reason didn't make sense, so he could only use force and pulled out the sword of Gion Phira, and his figure disappeared from the place in an instant.
On the opposite side, Wood also drew out his own sword Tianku, and his figure left his original position at the same time.
"Ding------!"
An extremely clear sound of gold and iron clashing echoed in the air. Wood and Gion, who had disappeared at the same time, had already collided with each other when they reappeared.
Jinbiluo's blade touched Tianku's blade, and a large number of sparks burst out from the friction between the blades.
The moment the two people's blades collided, a huge shock wave caused an uproar in the originally calm sea.
The collision of blades did not last long. In terms of strength, Wood's Gion was quickly repelled by Wood.
However, Gion quickly stopped the flying figure and slashed directly towards the sea in front of him.
"Ittōryū Rabbit Fang!"
The sharp sword energy burst out from Jinpira's sword, and like a sharp tooth, it hit the sea in front of Gion.
The originally calm sea surface, under Gion's attack, also directly set off huge waves, and formed a small-scale tsunami towards Wood.
"Ittōryu·Kamaitachi!"
The slashes shot out with a blast of wind, and the tsunami that hit them was like a huge curtain, which was torn in half by Wood's slashes.
Compared to Golden Lion Shiki's previous "Shishi Power Sea Roll", the waves caused by Gion just now were too childish.
The tsunami was split open, and the seawater that lost its support turned into water splashes falling all over the sky. When the collapsed tsunami fell into the seawater again, it also set off huge waves.
From the perspective of Wood and Gion, the attacks just now were just mutual tests. However, the dozens of naval forces watching the battle on two warships not far away were all dumbfounded at this moment.
What kind of level of battle is this? One of them set off a small tsunami with one strike, while the other one split the tsunami with one strike!
Let’s not mention Gion’s subordinates for now. After all, they have worked with Gion for a while and they know very well how strong their major general is.
As for Russ and the others, their eyes almost fell out when they saw Wood splitting Tsunami with a knife and suppressing the Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters.
The previous battle between Wood and Golden Lion Shiji was not fortunate enough to be seen because they were far away from there.
When they slaughtered the prisoners in Impel Down City, because their opponents were too weak, they could only see that Wood was very strong.
However, what brought them the greatest impact was the battle in front of them!
Gion is a rear admiral in the Navy Headquarters, and he is also a high-profile naval supernova. With such terrifying strength, no one is too surprised.
However, the crux of the problem is that Wood, a mere naval lieutenant colonel, who is just a passerby at the navy headquarters, actually has such strong strength!
Even in the duel between the two, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Major General Gion does not have the upper hand. Whether it is speed or strength, Major Wood's side is obviously better.
Water splashed all over the sky, and Gion's high-speed moving figure formed a series of afterimages in front of Wood, and these afterimages not only surrounded Wood, but also slashed at him from every angle.
"Chaotic Blade Dance·Cunning Rabbit!"
This move was used by Wood and Gion before when they competed at the Naval Academy. With extremely fast speed and identity, it can create multiple afterimages to confuse the enemy, and then find the opponent's flaws to deliver a fatal blow!
