240 Luffy: Sorry, I didn’t pay attention at the moment!
New World Naval Headquarters.
Marshal's Office.
Sean was holding the phone, looking dumbfounded.
"So, you are saying..."
"Previously, the new commander of CP has been forcing you to hand over the manufacturing technology of ironclad ships, and then he had a conflict with Straw Hat Doubt who happened to be in the Capital of Seven Waters, which eventually triggered the Justice Island incident."
"Although you were not directly or indirectly involved in this incident, Luffy and the others unexpectedly helped you escape the persecution of P9, so you agreed to help them build a steel pirate ship?"
Sean briefly summarized what happened and asked.
"That's right. We did not provide them with the manufacturing technology of the ironclad ship, but a finished ship."
"Marshal Sean, they are not the kind of pirates who burn, kill and plunder, they just go out to sea for adventure. Can you..."
Espago tried to plead with Straw Hat Doubt.
only...
"Espago, I know better than you what kind of person Luffy is."
"But you have to understand that often the ones who cause the most harm to the world are not the vicious pirates, but the pirates who clamor for freedom all day long."
"The emergence of Pirate King Roger once triggered the Great Pirate Age. In the past twenty years, the number of recorded civilian deaths alone has reached millions, not to mention those who were disabled or whose homes were destroyed.
Already."
"So, is Roger a pirate who enjoys burning, killing and looting?"
"No, he is not!"
"As for Luffy, I gave him three chances, but he didn't cherish it. He still embarked on the path of being a pirate and aimed at becoming the Pirate King!"
"Let him go?"
"Does that mean waiting for him to become the Pirate King and trigger the next pirate era? After that, countless civilians will pay for it?"
"If it's just for adventure, then why do you have to hang the pirate flag?"
"Did he swallow up the profession of adventurer?"
Akainu has a concept that Sean agrees with very much.
That is...
When you hang up the pirate flag, you are already guilty of original sin.
No matter whether you have done bad things or not!
For example, if Luffy never engages in burning, killing, looting, but as his fame grows, more people will definitely worship him and go out to sea to become pirates.
So, can all these pirates who go to sea because they worship Luffy be like Luffy, who only travel and have adventures without burning, killing, and looting?
Obviously, this is impossible.
After all, except for a few, most pirates are murderous beings.
So here comes the question...
Is Luffy responsible for the people killed by these pirates?
Maybe not direct responsibility, but definitely indirect responsibility.
Therefore, as long as you are a pirate, it is already an original sin, an original sin that the navy has to attack and eliminate!
No matter if you have done bad things after becoming a pirate...
What's more, nearly 10,000 sailors died tragically on Judiciary Island, and this debt must also be counted on Luffy.
Espagu was silent, unable to refute at all.
After all, he has never considered a problem from another angle like Sean.
Now when I hear Sean say this...
------
at the same time.
The port of the Seven Waters City.
The Alabasta stop is not far away.
A cruiser flying the navy flag is slowly docking.
This is not a cruiser from the New World Navy, but from the headquarters navy.
The one Sean gave to Garp.
At this moment, Garp no longer had the carefree look of the past, but instead had a frown on his face.
Especially when I saw the dozens of steel ships on the port
After the warship, his brows furrowed even more tightly.
Kizaru, that guy, had known a few days ago that the Alabasta Kingdom Navy was going to encircle and suppress Luffy, but he had kept it secret from him.
If he hadn't discovered it accidentally and asked Kizaru "politely", he would have kept it a secret.
Damn...
Hope it's not too late!
Alas, I can only feel sorry for that boy Sean this time!!
------
At this moment, the hotel where Straw Hat was staying in doubt was surrounded by thousands of Alabasta sailors.
They were fully armed, each holding new guns provided by Sean. There were even a large number of snipers holding sniper rifles in the surrounding buildings within a kilometer.
That's right, there is indeed no single combat power in the Kingdom of Alabasta's navy that is too strong.
But the individual weapons and equipment they use are much stronger than those of the main army.
And just two streets away, Vivi, who had completed the arrest of Arrita and Kebi, had also arrived here.
"Have all the irrelevant personnel been evacuated?"
"Everyone has been evacuated, princess, Straw Hat Doubt did not stop us!"
Hearing this, Weiwei nodded.
"I am not going to waste time with them, I will push the artillery up and blast it directly!!"
"Princess, isn't this... bad?"
"It's okay, the Alabasta royal family will be responsible for compensation for all losses, let's do it!"
"Yes, princess!"
A moment later, dozens of artillery pieces brought by the fleet were pushed up by a group of Alabasta sailors.
Karina, who was hiding by the third-floor window and observing, preparing to look for an opportunity to break out, instantly became furious.
Hey hey...
Do you want to be so exaggerated?
I counted it myself and found a total of 38 artillery pieces.
Are you preparing for direct bombardment?
Is Alabasta's navy so violent?
Also, as the mayor, Espagu didn’t respond at all?
The next moment, just when Karina's eyes widened and she didn't have time to react...
Boom boom boom boom boom...
A series of shelling sounds were heard.
On the ship, Luffy and the others can intercept him.
But now that they are in the house, it is not that easy to intercept them.
At such a close distance, the artillery was so accurate that it blew the third floor to pieces, and even the fourth floor collapsed due to the unstable support below.
After a while.
The thick smoke and dust raised by the shelling finally dispersed, allowing people to barely see what was going on.
I saw a huge meat ball in the room on the third floor, but the targets had disappeared.
Just when everyone is confused.
At that stage, there were some faint sounds coming from underneath the meat ball.
"Idiot...can't...breathe...suffocating..."
The intermittent sound makes people a little confused.
At this moment, the meat ball shrank rapidly and finally turned into a child.
He looks like he's only 4 or 5 years old.
Although from the appearance point of view, this should be the goal, but the age is not suitable!!!
Alabasta's sailors were a little confused.
But Weiwei has already realized that this guy is Luffy. Before, after he grew bigger, he protected his companions underneath?
Then now that the ability has been taken back, it has become so small...
Is it a side effect?
Weiwei really guessed this, it was the side effect of Luffy's third gear.
After using this move, the body will temporarily become smaller.
"Luffy, are you an idiot?"
"That's right, although I wasn't killed by them, I was almost suffocated by you!"
"Can't you have some common sense?"
"Why would I cooperate with an idiot like you..."
Karina, Bucky, and Sanji, as soon as they escaped, they started to complain madly at Luffy.
Just now, they almost thought they would be suffocated to death, but now that they think about it, their hearts are still beating fast.
This is simply...
Luffy, in his villain form, scratched his head carelessly.
