Chapter 14 Sudden Enlightenment
With a bang, Drago slammed his hands on the table and stood up and shouted,
"I can stand guys like Sakaski who are willing to sacrifice everything for the mission!"
"But we absolutely cannot stand it. We are living in the conspiracy of a huge organization!"
"It seems that the member states have the right to enjoy all the benefits distributed by the World Government..."
"Those non-member countries have been experiencing wars that are more terrible than hell for many years. Why is this? There must be a reason, and it must be related to the Celestial Dragons!"
"Now I know that the old man was honored as a hero because he protected Tianlong in the Valley of Gods in the West Sea six years ago."
"Now he even thinks that clan is beasts and scum. Do you understand my feelings, Crow?"
Dorag, who wanted to find out the truth and understand what justice in the navy really was, suddenly got angry.
This was the first time Crow had seen Dorag get so angry since he had followed him from the North Sea.
It was as if his patience had reached its limit and he was eager to know the truth.
Who caused the war between non-member countries?
Who sold them the weapons?
All of these Dorag wanted to know.
Just as he was looking seriously out of the cabin window, he suddenly saw a figure.
"Who's outside?" Dorag suddenly noticed someone standing outside the house and asked in a deep voice.
dong dong dong-
Arthur knocked on the door and responded, "It's me, Colonel."
"Come in, Arthur," called Dorag, and soon Arthur and his eagle came in.
Standing in the office, looking around.
"Arthur, did you hear everything just now?" Dorag asked Arthur seriously, observing the leisurely expression on his face.
It was as if he was completely different from the battle, and he became two different people.
"I heard you. But you didn't call me here because of what you just talked about, right, Colonel?" Arthur responded to Dragon honestly.
It was discovered that the usually calm Dorag was a little furious at this moment.
"Just now, the warship escorting Apollo sent news that Apollo and his deputy Lake died on the way to rescue their injuries." Dorag said to Arthur. This was the news he had just received.
Arthur looked calm when he heard this and asked disapprovingly, "Did anyone kill them?"
"No, he died from severe injuries." Dorag clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at Arthur seriously.
"It seems that they still need to improve their physical fitness and resistance to blows." Arthur knew exactly what was going on.
In front of a guy who had lost the ability to resist, and taking dozens of heavy punches from him with all his strength, if he didn't die, he would be a real monster.
Dorag told Arthur truthfully:
"Vice Captain Lake died from a hole in his neck. Apollo died from a series of heavy blows after being seriously injured. He died before he could even receive emergency treatment."
"Dead, dead. Do you still want to plead for them, Colonel?" Arthur replied. This was the first time he had killed someone since he came to this world.
It seems to be no different from hunting animals.
He was not moved by this, but asked:
"Does their bounty compare to their strength, Colonel? Or does it increase through killing and existing pirate groups?"
This question made Dorag think for a while, and then he responded to Arthur,
"Purchasing a bounty on a pirate requires a multi-faceted assessment and observation. Killing innocent civilians can skyrocket the bounty, but most of the time it is determined by the threat to the world and one's own strength."
"Oh, I see." Arthur joined the navy without learning the knowledge taught in the military, so he didn't know many things.
He killed a pirate worth 300 million, who were the remnants of the Rocks Pirates, but he was so calm.
In Dorag's opinion at this time, Arthur was also a man who could accomplish great things.
"The Navy is a huge organization, Arthur. What you just heard outside was what I was trying to find out what the meaning of staying in this organization is."
After talking about Apollo and Lake who were seriously injured and died after rescue, Dorag brought the topic back to the topic.
"Oh? I don't quite understand, Colonel." Arthur pretended not to know, but in fact he understood what kind of organization the navy was.
"Let me put it this way, Arthur." Major Crow came out to explain immediately, "Colonel Drago now feels that the Navy is a violent organization of the Celestial Dragons, selling weapons to non-member countries around the world and forcing them to engage in crazy wars."
"In this way, the Tianlong people can gain huge benefits from it. They don't care about the death of those people at all."
"And those non-member states that perished in the war will not be reported in the news."
Arthur now was even more indifferent to these words. He felt that the affairs between countries had nothing to do with his current strength.
Things at that level are not something he will come into contact with in the future.
"Plus, in recent years, investigations..." Dorag's face became serious again, his brows furrowed:
"I discovered that the Celestial Dragons have another inhumane action. Every three years they seem to..."
As Dorag said this, his voice suddenly stopped. Because the following words were just his inner guesses, and he didn't dare to completely determine whether they were true or false.
"They will choose a worthless non-member country to massacre in order to please the game they created."
As a time traveler, Arthur already knew these things in his mind.
He remained calm: "If what you said is true, what will you do, Colonel?"
"I will leave the navy, save the suffering ocean, and I will overthrow the World Government!" Dragon's face was firm and his tone was powerful, filled with endless anger.
"I can't imagine why I would be an accomplice of such an organization!"
"When I meet the old man this time, I will definitely ask him clearly."
He seemed to have the answer in his mind and made up his mind.
"Is this really the reason why he left the Navy?" Arthur thought to himself, "So, the next Punk Hazard is when Dragon meets Vegapunk?"
Telling Arthur this was also Dorag's way of paving the way for the future.
Once he learns the truth, he will start to gather strength. Arthur is the only unpredictable boy he has ever met.
He saw Arthur on Lionheart Island, who was not afraid of death or escape when fighting, but was determined to defeat the enemy with all his strength.
"Arthur." Dorag suddenly looked at him as if he were a monster. "Do you know what they would do to get you to join the navy if the headquarters found out about you?"
"I don't know, what approach will be taken?" Arthur was confused.
"They will force you to join the navy. They will massacre the people in your village, force you, coerce you, and even use tricks to make you become a powerful navy and serve them."
"Hahaha..." Arthur listened, poked his face with his hand, and laughed a little crazy: "We won't be threatened, right, Cooper?"
Cooper nodded to Arthur with a serious face and called out, "Cooper!" (Because there is no one we care about!)
"Hahahahaha, don't even think about it."
Dorag just wanted to tell Arthur about the evils of the government and the navy, but unexpectedly, the two of them suddenly changed their personalities and burst into laughter in the cabin.
"You guys are neurotic, right?!"
"No, Colonel." Arthur immediately returned to his normal state after hearing this and saluted Dragon.
Cooper on the side also saluted like Arthur.
"Get out, Arthur, you are still too young. Give me more experience."
Boom——
They were kicked out of the office by Drago and fell into the narrow corridor.
With a bang, Dorag closed the hatch and drove the two out.
In the dark corridor, Arthur slowly sat up from the ground: "We are illegal residents, who dares to threaten us? Cooper."
"Cooper." (I am a raptor, I have no human registration.)
"Hahahaha!" Arthur didn't want to think about political issues. He was free, and he wanted to throw away all those heavy things.
The battle in the Eivor Sea changed Arthur's worldview a lot.
He faced those cruel things head-on, and gradually discovered that no one else cared about those cruel things, so why should he care?
"I forgot to tell you, Arthur, the world's largest recruitment campaign is about to begin. After the Punk Hazard mission, you have to go back and perform well."
Drago's voice came from inside the cabin.
"World Conscription?"
"It's a recruitment campaign to find strong fighters all over the world. If you perform well, you can be promoted directly. Maybe your rank will be the same as mine."
