After the worship, Kuro returned with his people and went straight to Base 153.
Naturally, this place cannot accommodate three thousand people.
Plowpa simply opened the door to the outside, allowing the fortress and the town to become the home of the welcome banquet. Some of the three thousand Dou Gregg naval brigade entered the fortress, and some started the banquet in the open square and streets of the town.
As for Kuro and the others, they naturally entered the home court inside the fortress.
The long table was divided according to military rank. Kuro sat at the head seat, his subordinates lined up one by one, and Lipa sat at the end. He clapped his hands and said, "Let's get started."
Soon, the navy came up with food and placed it on the table.
Well, first let's put a bowl of salad on each person.
Qrow looked at the salad in front of him and moved his chopsticks, "It's good to eat the vegetarian one first to nourish your stomach."
No one objected to this statement.
It's not like they are non-vegetarians.
After the salad, the navy served several plates of cucumbers.
"Yeah, cucumber, it's light, you can have some appetizers first." Kuro picked up his chopsticks.
The navy brought food again, also several plates of green vegetables.
Then, green vegetables
Green vegetables.
green
green.
"You think I'm a tauren, Lipa!"
The veins on Kuro's forehead were exposed, and he threw the food off the table and yelled at him: "Let me be a kappa?! Where's the meat! Meat! You don't want to eat it, you can't let me not eat it!"
"
"Lieutenant General Kuro."
There was no anger on Lipa's face, and he continued to smile: "It's better to be patient and taste it carefully. Soon you will feel the tenderness of nature and the gifts of the earth. No need to kill or plunder, just
The kindest way of life is to be able to have a full stomach with the gifts of nature."
"Are you kidding me? I'm a human being, an omnivore!"
Kuro pointed at Lipa and said: "You can exist here because our ancestors conquered the world step by step. There will be no shortage of killing and plundering in the process. Look at the ugliness of human beings, Lipa. And
, you weren’t like this before, what’s going on!”
"I just think that this is how people should be to be considered human beings."
Lipa stood up and looked at Kuro without fear, "Be kind, gentle, inherit the blessings of nature, have a reverence for life, no longer kill, no longer plunder, I finally understand, Kuro, this is the only way,
People are people.”
"And you"
Lipa pointed at Culuo and said: "Even if you are already a lieutenant general and known as the 'Golden Tiger', you cannot deny that you are an executioner with bloody hands!"
These words silenced the elegant birds around.
There was disbelief in everyone's eyes.
Is this a plow handkerchief?
Is this the navy?
The Navy accuses the Navy of having bloody hands?!
"What you said is so good!"
Qrow gritted his teeth and said, "Because you were my boss before, I won't argue with you."
He took a deep breath, glared at the plow handkerchief, turned around, and was ready to leave.
The person who used to take care of him has become like this, so he is not suitable to stay in the navy anymore.
"That's not the case!"
Just when Kuro was about to go back and write a small note to report, Cass's voice suddenly sounded.
He stood up, pointed at the plow and said righteously: "That's not the case! Everything Mr. Clow did was for justice!!"
"What justice! Isn't it just killing people? Real justice will not deprive people of their lives wantonly!" Lipa said loudly.
"certainly not!"
Cass stood in front of Lipa, staring directly at Lipa with his big solemn eyes, "Justice must be sacrificed! There are too many pirates on the sea, and those pirates and evil make civilians miserable.
If you can't live a stable life, you will be worried every day, afraid of being killed by pirates, afraid of being robbed by pirates, and the results of your hard work are not as good as the pirates landing once."
"If the navy doesn't kill, it will never be able to contain this situation. Some pirates cannot be caught, because it is harder to catch than to kill, and our energy is limited, the sea is too big, and the navy is
Too small. Between civilians and ourselves, of course we choose civilians!"
Cass shouted: "Who likes to kill, no one likes to kill! But in order to protect civilians, in order to exercise justice! We hang our souls under justice and let justice judge what we do! Look, Shields
The peace we have today is the result of our navy exercising justice for a long time! How can you accomplish justice if you don't even deal with pirates? How can you be worthy of the cloak behind you and the person standing behind that cloak?
Trust you and support your civilians!”
As he spoke, a stream of white air came out of his body and blasted around Lipa.
Like a gust of wind, Lipa's cloak and hat were blown away, and the hat fell to the ground, revealing his hair.
He opened his eyes wide, suddenly bowed his back, put his head in his hands, "I, I"
In the turbulence of the white air, Lipa's eyes looked a little strange.
Those eyes were full of gentleness, but also unusually numb.
It seems as if there is nothing but gentleness.
But at this moment, in this numb eyes, there is something more complicated, about the complexity of human nature.
"Colonel Lipa! You are a righteous navy! Not a vegetarian Buddha!!" Cass added another sentence, and white air emerged from his body again, hitting another wave of Lipa.
Lipa's eyes gradually woke up.
He fell to his knees, breathing heavily, with cold sweat streaming down his face, "I, what's wrong with me?"
"Um?"
Kuro turned around and raised his eyebrows, "What's going on? Lipa?"
Even this fool could see that something was different.
There seems to be something wrong with this thing.
"Curo!"
Lipa stood up, as if seeing Kuro again, and exclaimed in surprise: "It turns out to be Kuro!"
"Don't think that pretending you just met me is the end of it. You just called me an executioner, and I'm holding a grudge."
That's what he said, but Kuro sat back on the chair again, "What's going on?"
"have no idea"
Lipa shook his head and was stunned for a while before saying:
"A year ago, I heard the news that there seemed to be pirates around, so I took people to see it, and then I met a man in a black robe. After meeting him, I felt that life should be kinder.
, should not kill.”
As he spoke, he punched the ground, "Damn it, why would I think like this? I'm a navy, and of course I'm kind, but this shouldn't be the case with pirates!"
"ability?"
Qrow narrowed his eyes, "Have you met a person with abilities?"
There is no one except those with abilities who can change a person's temperament drastically.
As for curses, legends, etc., he didn't believe a word of it.
But the ability to make people "eat fasting and chant Buddha's name" is a bit strange, like Mrs. He's "washing fruit".
One update.
Fish Head is really tired.
Some time ago, I really exhausted all my energy.
Sorry, gentlemen.
The debt was owed again even before it was paid.
I'm going to rest and try to fill up my status tonight.
