Chapter 111 Slap in the face, the restraint of justice!

"I'm a pirate!"

Shanks' soliloquy was heard by Ji Guoyuan, who was repairing the roof on the roof, looked down at Shanks slightly, and then shouted to Bucky who was not far away:

"Hey, Bucky, get some nails up here."

While speaking, the two fists holding the nail slowly floated to Ji Guo Yuanyi's side.

It has to be said that Bucky's devil fruit ability is quite useful at certain times.

Yuanyi took the nail from Bucky's hand, and asked Shanks below:

"Shanks, what do you think the pirates should do?"

"I heard your tone of voice, and you seem to be looking forward to pirates. Is it because you are a pirate yourself? Are you proud of your... career?"

"As a Marine, your words make me very uncomfortable."

While talking, Ji Guoyuan tapped the nails into the wooden board.

After hearing this, some working marines below looked at Shanks, with complicated emotions in their eyes.

Marines are naturally hostile to pirates. Most of Kuzan's crew members are recruits from the Navy, and they are all young people under the age of thirty.

These navies have not yet experienced the baptism of "reality", and they have the purest longing for the navy.

And for pirates, there is also the purest dislike.

Shanks has always regarded himself as a pirate, and was hated by these navies. However, seeing that even a kid like Shanks is proud of being a pirate, the marines have mixed feelings in their hearts.

"Pirates are the freest existence on this sea."

"I will be like Captain Roger and become the freest person on this sea!"

When Shanks said the word "freedom", his eyes were full of spirits. But before Ji Guoyuan could speak, Baki, who was not far away, spat lightly with disdain, and interrupted:

"Freedom or something..."

"Shanks, you are really naive!"

"Pirate, you just want to hunt for treasure!"

"Only treasure is the goal that pirates should pursue!"

"This is the romance of a man!"

Bucky and Shanks seem to be unaware of their current situation, talking about freedom and treasure hunting in front of everyone in the Navy.

He didn't even notice that the eyes of some of the surrounding navies looking at the two of them had changed.

"Freedom..."

"The word freedom really means convenience!"

"As long as it's for freedom, it doesn't matter what you do."

"Even if it's your freedom that hinders the freedom of others?"

Ji Guoyuan turned his head and glanced at Shanks, then turned his head, while busy with the matter at hand, shook his head and said.

When the sailors below heard what Ji Guoyuan said, they all nodded and glared at Shanks. There was even a young navy with a more violent temper who directly cursed at Shanks:

"Damn pirates, what you do is to get money and women? It's nothing more than to vent your animal desires that have no place to rest. Why do you have to hang up the banner of freedom for yourself?!"

"Pirates! Damn them all!"

Hearing the young navy's scolding, Shanks was not angry, but nodded seriously, without denying it, and said directly:

"There are pirates like that, but I, Captain Roger, and the companions on the ship have never done such a thing."

"We pirates at least dare to act and admit, what about you?"

"Isn't your navy hiding under the banner of 'justice' and doing what you want?"

"It's just that your animal desires are all vented on the pirates, and there are even some things that the navy does, which is more excessive than pirates, right?"

"Whether the desire to kill or the desire to destroy is good, is the navy hiding under the flag of justice really much better than pirates?"

The young Shanks has already seen all kinds of darkness in this world during the years of following Roger to sail the world. In terms of knowledge, these young navies are far from being able to compare with the young Shanks.

Faced with Shanks' rhetorical question, the marines could only yell at Shanks angrily, "You are talking nonsense", but Shanks simply sneered at these young and ignorant marines, and did not Paying no attention to the other party, he raised his head and looked at Ji Guoyuan who was repairing the roof.

"What do you think? Colonel Ji Guoyuan!"

"If it's you, you should be able to understand what I'm talking about?!"

"Or, the colonel of the Navy Headquarters, like these ordinary sailors who have no experience, foolishly thinks that the Navy is absolutely just?!"

Facing Shanks' question, Ji Guoyuan didn't intend to stop the movement in his hand, but replied while repairing the roof of the house:

"Individuals are simple, organizations are complex."

"People who join the navy must have various purposes, such as power, strength, maintaining world peace and tranquility, protecting people around them, etc."

"These goals can't be said to be good or bad, but the banner of justice can often restrain some people's personal ambitions."

"Justice is heavy, it means responsibility, it means position, it means restraint."

"But... Pirates are different."

"The freedom you believe in expands indulgence, expands desire."

"Humans need to be restrained, using morality, responsibility, and strict laws. Unlimited indulgence of desires, human beings without restraints are no different from ghosts."

"As for ghosts, they need to be wiped out."

"Our navy is just clearing out ghosts."

Ji Guoyuan knocked the nails into the wooden board with a click, and then turned to Shanks with a smile and said gently:

"There can be no pirates in this world, but there can't be no navy."

"The reason why you can still stand here and chat with me now is precisely because you are not a ghost, that's all."

"Bring me some planks."

Ji Guoyuan was "discussing" with Shanks one second, and then directly changed the topic and ordered. Hearing this, Shanks skillfully grabbed a piece of wood and threw it on it, then pursed his lips, frowned, thinking about how to refute Ji Guoyuanyi's words.

And at this moment, the street not far away suddenly became noisy, and several arrogant shouts came from the street.

"Go away! Go away! Get out of the way, out of the way!"

While speaking, a group of marines walked across the street with unrecognizable steps, and walked slowly towards this side. The aura of this group of marines was fierce, which was completely different from the temperament of the marines under Kuzan, and each of these marines had The clothes are disheveled, the hats are worn at an angle, some people still smell very strong of alcohol, walk crookedly, and look like they are hungover.

On the way towards here, a few residents who were carrying things accidentally blocked their way, and were pulled away by these navy officers. A drunken navy even kicked a passerby. Swearing and swearing, swearing that needs to be coded.

Shanks noticed the movement over there. Seeing this scene, he raised his head amusedly, looked at Ji Guo Yuan Yi, and said mockingly:

"The constraints of justice are really powerful!"
