Chapter 270

"The common people, the common people are actually farming, they are planting grain!"

"In their hands they hold large seeds different from ordinary seeds, and beside them is a robot helping them plow the fields..."

Fujitora fell silent.

After a long while, he sighed and said:

"I have heard that the former royal family of this country was extremely cruel and inhumane, and the common people lived in great hardship, correct?"

A Vice Admiral stammered in reply:

"Y-yes... it seems that is the case..."

"What do you mean 'it seems'!"

Fujitora suddenly clenched his fist and stomped his cane hard.

"The fact is clearly that! To strengthen national power and pay the Celestial Tribute to the Celestial Dragons, this country's royal family has plundered the common people to a degree even more cruel than pirates!"

"But what are the Marines and the World Government doing?"

"Just because it is a member of the Fudejia Alliance, we must still protect such a royal family!"

Fujitora's sudden outburst made that Vice Admiral jump in fright.

Cold sweat streamed down, and he dared not reply.

Fujitora took several deep breaths to calm himself, then said:

"In upholding the justice of this country's common people, we Marines are not even as good as the Beasts Pirates."

Upon hearing these words,

that Vice Admiral and all the Marine soldiers on the warship's faces changed drastically.

· ·········· Begging for flowers ··· ·······

The Vice Admiral said:

"Admiral Fujitora, we are Marines; how can we approve of pirates? This... this cannot be done!"

"Why not?"

Fujitora said coldly:

"The facts are right before our eyes; the smiles on the common people's faces are the best answer. Must I, an old man, tell lies?"

That Vice Admiral was instantly speechless.

After a long while,

he cautiously said:

"But... but Fleet Admiral Sakazuki sent us to attack the Beasts Pirates. Admiral Fujitora, you won't decide not to fight because of this, will you?"

Fujitora fell silent for a moment, then said:

"Since I have accepted the position of Admiral, of course I will take responsibility."

"In this battle, I will not retreat."

That Vice Admiral breathed a sigh of relief.

He feared most that Fujitora, because the Beasts Pirates had done some good deeds for the common people, would not fight this war.

If they returned to Marine Headquarters, Fleet Admiral Akainu would surely be filled with Lei Ting rage.

Fujitora spoke no more.

When the warship was only one or two hundred meters from the shore,

he gave the order:

"You all stay on the warship; I, an old man, will go to the island alone."

"What?"

All the Marine soldiers urged:

"Admiral, it is far too dangerous for you to go alone!"

Fujitora said with resolve:

"You can see the enemy forces across there; if you go to the island, you will only be in greater danger. It is better to fire cannons from the warship to support me."

The number of troops the Marines dispatched this time was not large.

In overall strength, there was a clear gap with the Beasts Pirates.

This was something even the lowest-ranking Marine soldiers could see clearly.

Fujitora is a person who stands from the perspective of the justice of the common people at the top.

He both wanted to protect the ordinary common people and did not want the Marine soldiers following him to suffer harm.

He planned to go alone first to test the strength of the Beasts Pirates.

Moreover,

his ability, without teammates on his side nearby, was actually more conducive for him to exert himself.

Whoosh!

Fujitora leaped into the air.

Landing on the island.

Facing the enemy's army of over ten thousand.

He said calmly and without haste:

"I am Fujitora, named Ichi, a new recruit who joined the Marines not long ago."

"I have long heard that your Beasts Pirates hold the title of the strongest Yonko crew, and now you even intend to contend with the World Government for hegemony over the seas!"

"Since I have accepted the Admiral position, today I will come presumptuously to learn a thing or two!"

231. Fujitora, shocked and bewildered; the entire Beasts crew is unaffected by gravity!

Facing Fujitora's solo challenge.

Judge immediately showed anger on his face:

"Too arrogant, that guy! He's just a blind man!"

Judge challenged Luo Xing.

"My lord Luo Xing, let me go eliminate that blind man and annihilate the entire Navy!"

Having basically realized his dream of ruling the North Blue, Judge is now a loyal member of the Beasts Pirates.

Whoever dares to harm the North Blue he conquered, Judge will fight them to the death.

But Luo Xing did not agree to Judge's eager challenge.

He gazed deeply at Fujitora in the distance and said:

"This person is a Gravity Fruit user; do not underestimate him just because he is blind. His Observation Haki has been cultivated to the point of perceiving the cosmos; he can pull down meteors at will."

"No matter how many ordinary troops, under the attack of falling meteors, they are nothing but cannon fodder."

"Your Germa clone army, just keep an eye on the Navy warships."

"Fujitora, leave him to Kaido's Gifted army."

Judge and his sons, including all of Germa's clones, have eaten the Monster Cells and possess considerable strength.

"Five Four Three" But facing the monster-level Fujitora, they are clearly far from enough.

Sending Judge and the others would most likely just be offering themselves as food.

Instead, it would only dampen their own morale.

Luo Xing brought Kaido and the Punk Hazard Gifted army this time specifically to replace Germa and deal with Admiral Fujitora.

Even though Judge felt somewhat resentful.

Luo Xing's orders are iron law; he dares not disobey.

He could only obediently take his son Ichiji and the other two, along with the clone army under his command,

to guard the other side, on alert against the Navy warships only about two hundred meters from the shore.

Fujitora's Observation Haki is unparalleled.

He heard Luo Xing's deployment.

His heart was surprised.

"This famous Fifth Emperor seems to know my abilities quite well..."

Fujitora could not help but feel very confused.

Before joining the Navy, he had lived a very low-profile life.

Although possessing world-class strength, his name was not prominent, and he had never accomplished any major events.
