The person coming was none other than Kuzan.

Smoker was a little surprised and hurriedly welcomed him in.

"Long time no see. I originally wanted to pack up before visiting you, but I didn't expect you to come!"

Kuzan entered the house and was a little surprised when he saw the bright and clean room.

"Alalala, originally I was worried about you coming to the headquarters alone and wanted to see if I could help. Now it seems that you are very good at taking care of yourself!!"

"I recommended you to come here without any discussion. I didn't cause any trouble to you, right?!"

"How could it be possible!!"

Smoker smiled heartily.

"I owe you a big favor this time!!"

"You're welcome!" Kuzan waved his hand: "Seeing you are so energetic makes me feel relieved!!"

Then he took out a cigar and threw it to Smoker.

"Try it, this is good stuff from the South Sea."

"I spent a lot of effort to steal...from Huoshaoshan."

Smoker chuckled, took it, put it under his nose and smelled it.

The taste is spicy with a hint of aroma, it is indeed a rare treasure!

However, he was not in a hurry to smoke;

Instead, he stared at Kuzan with a half-smile.

"Brother Kuzan...your state is very different when we meet this time!"

Kuzan was stunned, scratched his head and said, "Really?! I don't feel anything at all..."

Smoker went straight to the point: "Is it because of O'Hara's demon-slaying order?"

Kuzan's pupils shrank and he looked at Smoker in disbelief.

Then he thought that he and Garp had walked all the way, so he sighed and nodded slightly.

Smoker sat across from him.

"It seems that not only the Tree of Omniscientness was destroyed by the bombardment, but also your long-standing faith!"

While on Cap's boat,

Smoker knew the impact of the O'Hara incident on Kuzan;

Then he made some insinuations and asked about Kuzan's current situation.

This incident really had a big impact on Kuzan. In fact, no matter whether it was Warring States, Garp or Zefa, they all noticed the changes in him.

Although I guessed the reason, I could only see it in my eyes and remember it in my heart.

The aftermath of O'Hara has just passed;

At that time Kuzan froze the rudder of the World Government ship,

Although there was no evidence, it still aroused suspicion,

Therefore, they did not dare to act rashly for fear of being caught by CP agents.

Warring States and Zefa have a calm temperament and can keep their composure, but Garp has long been driven crazy.

Now facing Smoker, his "direct descendant", he stopped being wary and told him all about Kuzan's changes.

Kuzan listened to Smoker's words,

First he was stunned, then he smiled helplessly.

"Alala, Smog, you are still the same, surprisingly sensitive!"

Then, with a solemn expression, he told himself about his experience at O'Hara.

Smoker naturally knows all about this plot.

But I still listened carefully as if I was hearing it for the first time.

From time to time, he would ask for details, teasing Kuzan to continue talking.

After all, this kind of telling itself is also a process of venting.

After Kuzan finished speaking, his whole body relaxed visibly.

"Smoker, are what our navy has done truly justice?"

"Are those guys who are wanted and exterminated necessarily evil?"

If others heard this, it would probably cause an uproar.

Even if Kuzan is a lieutenant general, he still has to shed a layer of skin.

But facing Smoker, Kuzan didn't know why, so he asked unconsciously.

Smoker lit his cigar and took a puff.

"Kuzan, do you think the current world is a chaotic time?!"

Kuzan smiled helplessly and looked out the window at the dim sky.

"Not only now, even before the Great Pirate Era, the world was already in chaos!"

"Generation after generation of navies have tried their best to protect justice, but they can barely maintain a semblance of peace..."

Smoker nodded.

Compared to the country I lived in in my previous life, the lives of people in this world can only be described as miserable.

Living in a country ruled by pirates, you need to endure the pirates' robbery.

Living in a franchising country, one has to endure the plundering of the Celestial Dragons and nobles.

Those who live in non-franchised countries face threats from pirates and human traffickers at any time and anywhere.

"Yeah, violence, ignorance, killing, poverty...what a fucked up world!"

"So, in the face of such a chaotic world, justice can be pure, but it can never be pure!"

"There is an old saying in my hometown, which is that in troubled times, you should use the most important words..."

Kuzan's brows couldn't help but frown.

"But behind this are the blood and tears of so many innocent people."

Smoker nodded: "Yes, this is accompanied by the sacrifice of countless people."

"But in this world, justice is bound to be stained with blood."

"The blood of criminals, our blood, and... the blood of innocent civilians!"

Kuzan lowered his head and said nothing. After a while, he spoke with difficulty.

"Don't you think this kind of justice is too cruel?!"

"Excessive justice will eventually lead to madness!"

Kuzan thought of the refuge ship bombarded by Sakaski.

"And the person who enforces this kind of justice, is it still considered justice?!"

Smoker nodded: "What you said is exactly the crux."

"Detached from the specific circumstances, no one can judge whether it is a necessary sacrifice or a simple killing."

"But for me personally, there is a very simple and crude standard."

Kuzan was curious: "What is it?!"

Smoker smiled.

"Then it depends on whether he will sacrifice himself when necessary!"

"In the final analysis, it's the difference between having sex with me and having sex with me..."

Kuzan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly while stroking his forehead.

Although I don't like Sakaski,

But I have to admit that that guy is definitely not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

When it's time to step up, people really do it.

Immediately, Kuzan fell into a brief silence, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, he slowly stood up, told Smoker some things about the assessment, then said goodbye and left...

Smoker stood at the door, quietly watching Kuzan leave,

He knew very well the reason for Kuzan's confusion.

First I saw the world government destroy O'Harry,

I also saw that my friend would rather die than save the criminal's daughter.

I saw my companions shelling the refuge ship again...

This time, the three consecutive times directly burned the CPU.

But this is not a reason for Kuzan to escape...

The current situation on the sea could not tolerate his confusion.

Smoker didn't expect that a few words could open up Kuzan's heart.

But just let him get back on his feet,

Kill more pirate groups, save more civilians,

It's not like I was busy in vain.

What's more,

Although Smoker didn't like Sakaski's move to bombard the refuge ship,

But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

In terms of cruelty and extremes, Sakaski is just a little bunny compared to the world government.

The world government was able to execute tens of thousands of newborns in one go even though it was not sure that Roger had a child.

It is not difficult to imagine what the world government would do if the asylum ship was allowed to escape?

Are they screened one by one for innocence?

Stop dreaming, it must be that everything you have come into contact with will be erased regardless of the situation.

It won't be just a few hundred people who will die by then...

Although I don't know what Sakaski was thinking at the time,

But judging from the results, it did save more people...

Of course, Smoker couldn't say these words directly.

I can only guide Kuzan to think on his own,

Slowly walk out of the corner.

At least it seems to be somewhat effective now...

When Kuzan was no longer visible, Smoker sighed and turned back to the house.
