Chapter 15 A grand fireworks
"The fireworks are really grand."
Jia Ji pressed down his dome hat, looking a little unbearable at what was happening in front of him.
There are many navies similar to him, especially the warship Kuzan is on. Seeing the purgatory-like scene, even the frequency of firing artillery has been reduced a lot.
"In addition, this is the reality of this world. The strong determines the fate of the weak."
Luther shook the wine glass in his hand and looked at the grand scene in front of him with blurred eyes.
The sky full of fire and the blazing omniscient tree were almost caused by his own hand.
Although it was an order from the World Government, when he actually issued the order to kill demons and saw the gorgeous scene like fireworks in front of him, he couldn't help but feel intoxicated.
There is pity for the dead, but more importantly, it is the poison-like taste that comes from controlling power.
Just one word can destroy an island.
With this power in his hands at any time, even Luther almost fell into it.
Now he really feels that those who call themselves gods when they have some power are not necessarily stupid.
Is it possible that, without interference from external factors, they really rule the people under their rule like gods?
Just like the Celestial Dragons of the World Government, and like Enel, the owner of the Thunder Fruit who can control every move of everyone on Sky Island.
This is a feeling of being in control. Only by holding this power with your own hands can you truly appreciate the beauty of it.
Luther squinted slightly and watched everything happening in front of him, and a sense of ambition arose in his heart.
One day, he will be able to achieve what he is today with the help of his own power.
"A strong man...Is it right to always be like this?"
Jiaji looked at the fire in front of him and murmured with emotion.
"Either you are the one who gives orders, or you are the one who goes with the flow. Jiajia, which one are you?" Luther said calmly.
"Ah, that's right, why should I think so much."
Jiaji lowered the brim of his hat and smiled to himself.
He is a person who just goes with the flow, so thinking about it will only make him more sad.
"Your Highness, you have caused serious damage to my pure heart!"
"Tsk, when we go back and pass through the town, I think some beautiful dancers will soothe your wounded heart." Luther smiled.
Jia Ji's interruption also allowed Luther to break away from his previous state and quickly returned to his previous appearance.
"Hahaha, Your Highness still understands me."
Jiaji regained his playful and smiling appearance.
Seeing such a shameless plan, Luther shook his head in amusement.
He has different arrangements for Kake and Gion.
Gion will be his future confidant or even right-hand man, while Kake will continue to stay in the Navy and work his way up with his support.
As for whether he can become a general in the end, it depends on whether Jiaji's future strength is enough.
Boom!!!
The omniscient tree in the distance was finally broken in the middle by the gunfire, and the flaming tree crown fell to the ground, further aggravating the destruction of the island.
On the small boat approaching the warship, the three people from O'Hara stared blankly at all this, with tears already streaming down their faces.
The homeland where they were born is now about to turn into a scorched earth.
"O'Hara...everything is my fault...if I don't expose..."
Olvia knelt down on the board of the boat, looking at O'Hara with tears streaming down her face, her expression filled with regret.
She wondered if she would have had a different ending if she had not been arrested and if she had not studied history.
Robin huddled next to Olvia, feeling a little blocked in his heart.
But for her, who was only 8 years old, the joy of being reunited with her mother far outweighed the pain caused by O'Hara's destruction.
What's more, Dr. Clover, who was kind to him on O'Hara, is still alive, and she only expresses sadness for the passing of those scholars.
Only the scholars were kind to her, but O'Hara's other memories were not good to her.
Dr. Clover stood straight on the bow of the boat, his face full of tears, his fists clenched tightly, and his eyes filled with determination.
O'Hara's destruction is doomed, and he will continue to carry the scholars' last wishes. He only hopes that Luther can fulfill his promise.
Even Gion, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, still looked a little complicated when he saw the entire island being destroyed.
This is the power controlled by the Celestial Dragons, or the World Government.
Even speaking, this is only a small part of their power.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Luther's words at that time.
Luther once asked her what she thought of the world.
Her answer at the time was very poor.
Even before Roger's execution, it was not considered good.
After Luther heard the answer, he asked her a question again.
Would the world be a better place if the world government disappeared?
At that time, she would naturally not say in front of the Celestial Dragons that it would be better without a world government.
But in her heart, she would inevitably think about this question, and in the end she did not think of a correct answer.
At this time, Gion had a vague answer to this question.
This world is a miserable world that keeps circulating...
Even if a more powerful force replaces the world government, today's situation may happen again in 800 years.
After thinking about this, Gion suddenly laughed.
She was actually a very kind person.
I naively thought that killing pirates would protect civilians.
It is naive to think that all people are either good or evil.
I naively think that my justice is to protect all weak people.
But now, she finds that her once innocent self is so far away.
The people of O'Hara are very weak, they are both good and evil. They are not pirates, but they killed a large number of civilians.
If O'Hara were not destroyed, the world would be worse.
And if she participated in the destruction of O'Hara, is she still righteous?
Simply put, these are questions that the naive self should be thinking about.
The day she joined CP0, she no longer had to think about what was right or wrong.
Rather than clinging to the innocence of the past, it is better to follow His Highness and see what he will bring to the world.
Maybe, this will be a very interesting thing.
Thinking like this, she seemed to feel the gaze from a distance.
Gion suddenly turned around, raised his head and looked at the warship in the distance, the man standing on the bow of the ship, as if he was indifferent to everything.
Facing Gion's gaze, Luther smiled and nodded at her. When he saw Gion's provocative eyes, the smile on his face became even stronger.
O'Hara's demon-slaying order can allow many people to see the world from a macro perspective, which is what he likes to see.
Macro narrative will make people subconsciously ignore a lot of human nature.
Only in this way can people think about problems from a mathematical perspective.
He needs to make people think about whether it is worth destroying one O'Hara to save 10 'O'Hara's.
Instead of asking them to consider whether destroying O'Hara is justice.
When people think about the former, they actually already have the answer in their minds.
No matter which answer you give, as long as you use numbers to measure life, there is no justice...
Thinking of this, Luther laughed at himself.
He was once a passionate young man, and he also yearned for Luffy's passion for adventure.
Now, why is he getting closer to that old guy Sartan?
