I summon the shadow army in Pirates - Chapter 130 The Nameless Monument
When dawn rises.
The dazzling light shines through the lush leaves of the giant tree and falls on the land of the Shampoo Islands.
The light is gentle.
But at this time, in the extremely empty land of 29GR, the temperature was very cold.
Tombs and tombstones were erected here overnight by navy soldiers.
On top of these tombstones.
Most of them have no names.
Because of the chaos in the illegal zone, the civilians living in this area are either wanderers from other places, or they have lived here for a long time and do not want to leave.
The navy did not manage this place very well before, and people’s names were rarely registered uniformly, so there were almost all nameless monuments here.
In front of the tombstone.
Coles led the navy soldiers in a moment of silence for the innocent people who died.
The atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
After witnessing the tragic scene with his own eyes and cleaning up the scene personally, the naval soldiers were not only uncomfortable, but also angry in their hearts.
All the navies knew who the culprit was, but they were unable to question him.
This is, powerless!
This is the helplessness of reality!
“Close the team!”
After completing the follow-up processing, Matthew’s voice sounded, integrating all the naval soldiers and starting to return to the station.
The navy soldiers turned around silently.
But not everyone will choose to remain silent, and not everyone can silently accept this heavy feeling.
There will always be people who choose to stand up and make their voices heard in this dark and corrupt world.
“Major General Coles, I want to know what you will do next.”
This not loud voice sounded in front of this silent group of tombstones.
Coles raised his eyes and saw that the person asking the question was a young navy man with an indignant look on his face.
He was wearing a white military uniform, a blue scarf, and a navy cap with the letters “MARLNE” printed on his head.
This is just a private first class.
He is almost the same age as Coles, and he also knows the pain of reality.
But I don’t know why, maybe it’s impulse; maybe it’s hope;
Perhaps, innocent people who do not want to die can only get an anonymous and desolate tombstone.
He stood up.
Asked the youngest rear admiral in the Shampoo Islands.
The other naval soldiers present were waiting quietly. They did not speak out, but that did not mean that they were not angry about the Tianlong people.
In fact, most people have grudges against the Celestial Dragons.
It’s just that due to various reasons such as family, relatives, friends, and life, they are unable to stand up regardless of their own safety.
Now someone has come forward to ask Major General Coles, and they are all looking forward to the answer.
Coles also knew that all the navy soldiers on the scene were waiting for his answer.
for the correct answer.
As to whether justice should be carried out or not!
Coles had already made his decision last night, but it was impossible for him to tell these naval soldiers that he would kill the Draco.
After thinking about counting breaths.
Coles’ voice spread in this empty and silent area.
“What do you want me to do?”
The Marine First Class was stunned for a moment. He did not expect the Major General to ask a rhetorical question. He could only speak according to his heart.
“I came to this archipelago before the major general. Although I was just an inconspicuous first-class private, I saw a lot of darkness in this island during the execution of my duties.
Things like this did not change until Major General Coles came.
As soon as you took office, you chose to launch Operation Storm to clean up pirates and criminals on the island, order illegal places to be rectified, and bring the island into a rare peace.
In the following time, Major General, you will stick to your post firmly and defeat the pirates who want to land on the island one by one.
In my heart, Rear Admiral Coles is the most righteous navy. Regarding the tragedy caused by the Dracos to civilians last night, I think Rear Admiral you should at least show anger. “
Coles looked directly at the outstanding Marine First Class and asked: “After the anger, let me accuse the Tianlong people to the World Government. Do you think this will succeed? Or, will this gain anything?”
The first-class soldier was speechless for a moment.
The other navy soldiers present also felt silent in their hearts.
This is the cold fact!
As the Major General said.
Even if a complaint is issued, even if hundreds of innocent people die, the World Government will not do anything about this matter.
Because the supreme controller of the world government is the Celestial Dragon.
The Celestial Dragons are the nobles of the world. They enjoy all privileges and are not afraid of the laws of world judgment.
Yesterday’s big explosion was just the tip of the iceberg of darkness for the Celestial Dragons.
There are still many evils among the Celestial Dragons!
But no matter what outrageous things the Tianlong people do, they will not be punished.
There is nothing we can do about it.
Therefore, praying to the world government to punish the Celestial Dragons is undoubtedly a fantasy!
But at this time, there can still be naval soldiers who stand up and are dissatisfied.
Coles was very pleased.
He came to the first-class private, patted him on the shoulder, and left immediately.
“Keep waiting. I think the light you hope for will eventually appear.”
However, without understanding Coles’ true meaning and heart, the first-class private just thought that the major general’s words were comfort and meant that he would choose to compromise.
Although compromising to the world is a test that one has to go through in life.
However, this answer was not the answer he wanted.
In his imagination, even if Major General Coles could not resist the Tianlong people, he should still show justice and shout out the voice of justice under the influence of this tragedy.
Even if reporting a complaint to the World Government is useless, you still have to show firm determination. If you persevere, you may be able to succeed, right?
Even though it may be small, something has to be done, right?
Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the innocent civilians who died tragically at the scene? If we can bear justice, how can we look directly at these nameless monuments!
However, Major General Coles did not answer like this.
Although what Major General Coles showed is the normal state of this world…
However, he felt that the faith in his heart was somewhat broken.
He always thought that in this dark and chaotic era of great pirates, he had found the faith of light and the justice he could rely on…
However, Major General Cole’s answer poured cold water on him from head to toe.
Is this justice?
“If this is the Navy… I don’t think I can stay any longer.”
“I want to quit.”
Under the words of the first-class soldier, Korsna stopped after taking more than ten steps.
Even without looking back, he could still feel the sadness in the navy soldier’s heart.
Coles had no explanation for this.
Nor can he explain it to outsiders.
After a moment of silence, he continued to move forward, his unchanging voice reaching everyone’s ears, and the coat of justice on his shoulders still fluttering.
“If you have lost the belief in continuing to be a navy, then quitting may not be a good choice. I respect your decision.”
After these words.
This Private First Class is no longer a Marine.
However, the twenty-year-old young man had no regrets. He took off his military hat and walked the opposite route to Coles.
In front of hundreds of nameless monuments.
A young rear admiral and a young private first class who had retired from the navy. They chose different paths and went in opposite directions.
…
On the way back to the naval base.
In addition to thinking about formulating a careful plan to kill the Draco, Coles was also thinking about his position in his mind.
If one day.
He also lost the faith to continue serving in the Navy. Will he still stay in the Navy?
Just counting the breaths, Coles put this problem behind him, because it was simply a problem that did not need to be too entangled.
If that day really happens.
He would also choose to turn around without hesitation, just like today’s Marine First Class.
------Digression-----
I originally wanted to use heavy numbers to highlight the evil of the Celestial Dragons, but the death toll in the previous chapter was a bit unreliable. Although I later revised it to 176 in time, more than ten readers have read it, so I would like to show it here. Please explain to previous readers.
There will be another chapter tonight.
