Chapter 22 Never Compromise

"answer me!"

The Vice Admiral's cold and stern voice was ferocious and angry, like a dry land thunder, exploding in the entire square, no, in every naval base in the entire world!

Deafening!

The strong wind stirred up by the overlord's domineering aura caused everyone present to have their clothes flying around and their souls to tremble.

But the impact from the soul and will is far less than what Darren said.

The Vice Admiral's razor-sharp words deeply stung the souls of all the navy, causing their brains to suddenly go blank.

No one spoke.

No one dared to speak.

yes! !

Is this magnificent battle to defend Marinefando really a victory?

This is the center of naval power and the holy place of justice!

But such a sacred place was invaded by a few pirates.

After killing tens of thousands of people and destroying most of Marineventor, they finally left with great arrogance.

The navy, known as the overlord of the sea, could only watch all this happen.

What kind of victory is this! ?

"This is a failure!"

"This is a disgrace to us as a Navy!!"

Darren was furious, and the pupils of his eyes gradually became bloodshot.

Everyone was moved when they heard this.

Their expressions began to struggle, and all kinds of complicated emotions gradually emerged from their hearts.

Zefa, Warring States and Cyborg Kong looked at each other, opened their mouths but were speechless and fell into silence.

By this point, nothing they were trying to say made sense.

Because even they can't come up with a valid rebuttal.

Darren is right.

The smile on Porusalino's lips deepened.

Sakaski's stern eyes became brighter, and his hands wearing black leather gloves gradually clenched into fists.

…

On the high platform.

Darren took a deep breath, as if suppressing his inner emotions.

Facing the countless faces with complex emotions and grief below him, he suddenly sighed and said slowly:

"I know these words are indeed difficult to accept."

"But that's what it is."

"No matter how we try to whitewash it or cover it up, the facts are the facts."

"Our holy place of justice was almost captured by pirates."

"The Navy Headquarters was almost sunk into the sea, becoming the dust of history and the laughing stock of the world."

At this time, Darren paused and seemed to hesitate, but his eyes quickly became determined again.

"As for this speech at the graduation ceremony, the senior leaders of the headquarters have actually expressed their anger with me a few days ago."

"They all agreed that the trauma and disaster we have suffered due to this war are already heavy enough, and there is no need to add too much psychological pressure to everyone, so they suggested that I stand up and say some inspiring words."

"Marshal Cyborg Kong, Warring States General...their concerns are very reasonable. To be honest, I thought so at the beginning."

"Let's all celebrate happily, then lift our spirits, rebuild Malinfando, and everything will be great again."

"But do you know?"

Darren's eyes flashed with sadness.

"I can not do it."

"I thought I could do it, but I couldn't say it."

"Because when I see all of you here, who have lost your relatives, friends, lovers, and comrades, I see the pain that is deliberately hidden on your faces, and those hypocritical words that whitewash peace, I really can't say it out loud."

"Because everything you see is sadness, and everything you look around is ruins."

"I can't deny the cruel reality of it all."

Darren clenched his fists.

"It's... hard for me not to be angry."

He raised his head and scanned the faces of everyone on the field with his deep eyes.

"Even pirates understand the meaning of revenge, but the navy is afraid of it."

"Yes, I have to admit, we are going through pain and stress right now."

"Marinvando needs to be rebuilt, the wounded need to be treated, the dead need to be compensated, and military expenditures need to be raised... The Navy Headquarters is in a life-or-death situation!"

"I know people are scared, but..."

"Can we, the righteous navy, just be so incompetent and watch the pirates show off their power above our heads?"

"Can we just let pirates wreak havoc on this sea?"

"Can we just swallow this bad breath and live like a turtle?"

The tone became higher and higher every sentence, and the tone became more and more passionate every word, making the eyes of everyone present gradually turn red.

"No!!"

Darren's eyes were blood red, he suddenly took a step and waved vigorously.

"We are the Navy!"

"The navy with justice on its shoulders!"

"Facing the evil pirates, I personally insist..."

He took a deep breath, and his voice shook the world.

“Never compromise!!”

The next moment, his words were completely drowned out by the enthusiastic cheers.

"well said!!"

"never!!"

“Never compromise!!”

"That's right!! Mourning and pain are meaningless. The pirates are in the new world and we want to kill them back!!"

"War!! War!!"

"..."

one by one,

The sadness and pain in the hearts of the marines in the audience were directly replaced by anger, and the anger was completely ignited!

They suddenly stood up from their seats, waved their arms with determination in their eyes, and stared at the Commodore on the stage.

As if that is the hope that leads them to true victory!

Zeng Guo's face suddenly looked horrified.

The development of all this was completely beyond his expectation.

Darren, is this guy trying to provoke an all-out war against the great pirates of the New World? ?

Cyborg Kong's expression also became gloomy and changed.

He didn't expect that Darren would take this opportunity to stir up emotions in the army... The situation was already out of control!

Zefa looked shocked and stunned.

Porusalino finally showed a perfect playful smile, and murmured to himself in a voice that only he could hear:

"It's really yours...Darren."

Sakaski's eyes were brighter than ever before.

Jiaji swallowed and looked around nervously at the crazy scene in front of him.

“Never compromise!!”

When everyone's anger reached its highest point, Darren raised his arms and shouted:

"Can we let the pirates continue to show off their power?"

“Can we allow the flag of justice to be stained with dirt?”

"Can we allow this great and free sea to be infested with pirates?"

"Never!! I insist!! We will never give up on our duty to defeat pirates!!"

"Comrades, comrades... please believe that we will win!!"

Amidst the shouts and roars of a ferocious ocean, witnessed by the vigorously waving arms, and under the gaze of countless pairs of blazing eyes from the Navy Headquarters and the world...

The new Vice Admiral suddenly pulled out the saber from his waist, and pointed the tip of the saber toward the distant sea.

That is the direction of the new world.

"The era of the navy being isolated is over!"

"The new world is our real journey!!"

The unruly and domineering words spread out, and the fierce momentum exploded, causing the broad lieutenant general's cape behind him to dance wildly.

As if in response to his voice, countless seagull flags flew up and down the Navy Headquarters, covering the sky with flags!

Darren raised his knife and roared:

"Graduating today, I, Rogers Darren, will take the lead and guard the New World Navy branch G5!"

“Never compromise until you achieve your goals!!”

He took a deep breath and said hoarsely:

"——Kill all the pirates!!"

After the words fell, a sword sound that penetrated the clouds and cracked the stone suddenly exploded in the distance.

Boom!

A shrill and domineering black light suddenly penetrated from the ground, tearing apart the atmosphere in a blink of an eye, and hovering high in the sky above the square.

Everyone recognized that knife at a glance!

Demon sword, Yama! !

Yama trembled violently, as if echoing his master's surging fighting spirit.

The cold breath spread, and the evil power stimulated the anger and murderous intention of everyone present.

“Never compromise!!”

Everyone roared like a torrent and tsunami, their eyes were red, and their murderous intent was sky-high.

"Go to sea!! Kill the pirates!!"

Kuzan blushed and waved his arms.

Garp in the audience was even more excited and smashed his stool to pieces, gritting his teeth and yelling:

"I will go to sea now and kill that bastard Roger!!"

Seeing this unstoppable frenzy, Cyborg Kong, Sengoku and Zefa were stunned.

"It's over..."
