Chapter 22: A letter from the Five Elders to Dragon
"Dragon, what do you think, why do you want to leave the navy?"
Fleet Admiral Kong's question caused the office to fall silent. Nobody knew what CP0 was going through. He had obviously brought Dragon here, and logically his mission was over, but he was still there without any trace of emotion on his face, nor any intention to leave.
But right now, all attention is focused on Dragon, and no one cares why he's still here.
At this moment, Dragon, who had his head lowered, slowly raised his head and looked directly at the old Fleet Admiral of the Navy Headquarters in front of him, with extremely firm eyes.
"I originally thought that the Navy was a righteous army that maintained order in the sea and protected the safety of the people. But what I have seen and heard over the years is that except for fighting pirates, nothing can be linked to the word justice. Because the greatest evil is the Celestial Dragons protected by the Navy and the completely corrupt World Government!"
With so many years of experience in the navy, Dragon saw with his own eyes slave-hunting ships filled with civilians from all over the world, brazenly sailing alongside the navy's warships. The sea breeze carried the cries for help to his ears, and when he heard them, he felt as if hot oil was spilled on his heart.
He once asked his superior at the time why he had let them go. It was clear that the World Government had long promulgated regulations prohibiting slave capture!
But his superior's response was that there was no pirate flag flying on the ship and there were no criminals with a reward on the ship, so it was not under his jurisdiction. The World Government has its own team dedicated to taking charge, so don't meddle in other people's affairs!
Such an attitude made Dragon's blood feel as if ice water had been poured on him.
After that, he saw many small countries being destroyed by large armies because they could not pay the heavenly tribute, while the navy itself was responsible for escorting the population to Tequila Wolf in the East Blue.
Dragon was thinking, what did they do wrong?
