Chapter 997 – Contradictory Person
That smile angered ó Kádi.
“If you want to keep a low profile, why did you attack the town? Didn’t you let the Marines notice us?”
Ordinary people would feel that something was wrong with that strange tone.
“Well, it’s not my decision. Although I’m the Captain, I can’t control the will of my subordinates. Human will is free, and we can’t control it. We are a group of pirates who gather together for free will. What everyone does is their personal freedom, but the Long Sword Pirates won’t mobilize collectively. That requires more than half of the votes, and I, the Captain, can decide.”
Franz laughed. “You’ll understand if you stay a little longer.”
O.C.D. did not understand and did not want to understand. If he was not an undercover agent with his own mission and needed to watch the movements of the Long Sword Pirates, he would want to kill this Captain now.
But as his days here grew longer and longer, he also understood that it was useless to kill the Captain. Once the Captain died, a new Captain would be elected. As long as more than half agreed, that person would be the new Captain.
The hilt and the sword body are one. Only with the sword body can there be a meaning to the existence of the hilt. Only with the sword hilt can the sword body be waved.
Then, he discovered that the truth was just as Franz had said. The pirates who raided the town were really individual pirates who occupied a small part of the 10,000 Pirates, and most of the pirates were just living their lives in the archipelago like ordinary people.
When O.C.D. couldn’t help but be curious and asked a man who catches fish for a living every day and looks more like a fisherman than a pirate, the answer he gave was that the kingdom he belongs to is too ruthless and he can only go to sea as a pirate.
The other pirates have all kinds of reasons. Some of them feel that the local royal army is too much of a bully and they can’t help but resist. There are also some who were attacked by pirates and killed by them, but they were bullied by the officials who colluded with the pirates and fled.
There are many reasons, but it’s one. I can’t live.
This is a pirate group composed of members who can’t survive and it has existed for a hundred years.
Of course, there are also pirates who join in purely for looting, but after they join the Long Sword Pirates, they will either quit and start a new business, or they will share the loot with these people.
They are also surviving and are no different from civilians. The only difference is that they do not have Marine protection, but they also do not have harsh taxation and oppression. They are free.
Franz, on the other hand, was not so much the Captain as the mediator of more than 10,000 people. He was the one who solved all the conflicts and troubles.
It was resolved easily and peacefully by his hearty smile.
This pirate group does not accept those with families and only accepts those pirates who are down and out. They are collectively supported by them and they do things collectively. When someone leaves, no one stops them. Instead, they celebrate.
After seeing all this, ó Kádi finally couldn’t help but ask.
“Cardy, we actually don’t have that big of an ambition. This pirate group has existed for more than a hundred years, and it has always been the collective will action. Whatever they want, the Long Sword Pirates will do. They want to be a real pirate group, and we are a real pirate group. They want peace, so we will be quiet.”
That day, Franz stood on the edge of the island and pointed to the sea and said to O. Kady:
“Once they find their target, they will leave automatically. Until they find their target, we will be their safe haven. They can wait until they find their own target. For better or worse, that is their choice.”
Franz showed a hearty smile. “The tradition of the Long Sword Pirates is the long sword of a knight, protecting people until they don’t need it!”
On that day, the sun shone on Franz’s smiling face, which looked bright and dazzling, and also stunned O.C.D.
This is another form of justice, and although it ignores the laws of the World Government, it is also justice …
From that day on, ó Kadi restrained his hatred and seriously observed the Long Sword Pirates and gradually integrated into them.
His intelligence will still be sent out, but he will also participate in the actions of the Longsword Pirates.
Gradually, his status became higher and higher, and he took the initiative to share the skills of the Marines and improve the strength of the pirates. In this way, his reputation became more and more high.
O.C.D. smiled when he saw those people smiling happily because of the new body technique they had learned.
He will also ask those pirates to not kill anyone, as long as the supplies are enough.
With the addition of a fallen Marine Captain like him, the Long Sword Pirates are living better than before and more in line with the justice in their hearts.
Isn’t it time to go …
Let this place continue like this. They are just a group of people who want to live freely.
Until Franz died.
Yes, Franz is dead, from overwork with a heart attack.
When he found out about this, ó Kadi was stunned for a long time.
The Captain is dead, but the Long Sword Pirates still exists and will always exist.
Facing everyone’s eager expectations, ó Kadi picked up the long sword, but his thoughts were in chaos at this moment.
He is Marine, but he… is also a pirate.
He will bear the responsibility of the “Hilt” of the Long Sword Pirates and continue to maintain the tradition as the Captain.
He changed his name to Robert Henry and became famous as the Captain of the Longsword Pirates.
But he seemed to have used too much strength.
During the time that he became the Captain, the Long Sword Pirates gradually over-transformed into Marines. Every time they plundered, they would be more relaxed and have no opponents.
At some point, the people in the Long Sword Pirates began to become arrogant. They were not satisfied with living on this island in the South China Sea. They wanted more resources and they wanted to… establish a country!
No one in the South China Sea can stop them. They will succeed.
ó Kady, as Marine, must stop this. And as Robert Henry, he cannot go against the will of the Long Sword Pirates.
This is tradition. Their will is there. The Sword Pirates are there.
“Go to Grand Line, we have a chance there!”
When O.C.D. said this, everyone agreed that the Long Sword Pirates would be deployed as a whole.
And he was ready.
As a Marine, he reported the news and completed his accusation.
As a pirate, he was also prepared to advance and retreat with the Longsword Pirates.
Marine won, so he will die as the last Captain and not let the pirates down.
If Marine loses, then he will fight with the Long Sword Pirates as a Marine Captain of Headquarters and will not let Marine down.
But the end result …
… .
The lowered eyes looked up and O.C.D. revealed a silent sneer. “You won’t understand…”
Who can understand contradictory individuals and people?
There is no need for words, just fight!
