Chapter 22: 22. Carry Out Your ‘Justice’
"This is my assistant, the reindeer who ate the Human-Human Fruit - Tony Tony Chopper."
Feeling Dylan's gaze, Chopper once again hid himself shyly.
"·······"
Members of the Straw Hats...
Dylan glanced at Chopper thoughtfully, then stood up and said to Bell-mère, "Let's go back to G-5."
Before going out, Dylan said to Dr. Kureha, "In the future, you can make a request to me that does not violate the principles of justice as payment for this medical treatment."
...
After Dylan and Bell-mère left, Dr. Kureha looked at the direction they were leaving and sighed.
"Doctorine...?"
Chopper looked at Dr. Kureha, who looked a little serious, with confusion in his eyes.
"What a pity, Chopper..." Dr. Kureha knelt down and touched Chopper's head.
"ah??"
Dr. Kureha smiled bitterly, "It seems that I didn't gain his friendship, this promise..."
Looking at the Cherry blossom pirate flag floating outside the window, Dr. Kureha sighed softly in her heart, "I hope this promise can protect you in the future."
Bell-mère followed Dylan on the mountain road, her cigarette back in hand after she recovered.
"Dylan, Dr. Kureha and Chopper shouldn't be bad people, why..."
Dylan walked in the snow with Shura on his shoulders, and the little human sat on his and Bell-mère's shoulders.
"They are indeed not bad people, but fate will eventually separate us. This feeling..."
Dylan stopped in the snow and looked sideways at Bell-mère, "You will understand in the future."
"ha!!???"
"Dylando, the patriarch and the great elder often say these words about fate."
Sitting on Dylan's shoulder, Mansherry looked at Dylan's profile, and she thought of the very old elder under Green Bit.
He always stood in front of that strange stone, muttering about "promise" and "destiny."
"Really?" Dylan turned around and smiled, then asked Mansherry, "So, does Princess Mansherry believe in fate?"
"Um!!"
Mansherry nodded affirmatively, "I believe it was fate that brought Dylando to Dressrosa and Green Bit!"
"That's it, that's really good."
"By the way Dylan, I also heard Dr. Kureha tell the story of Chopper, the man named Hiriluk..."
"Bell-mère..." Dylan laughed as he walked, "It is undeniable that Hiriluk did shine in the last moments of his life, but... can this little brilliance of humanity cover up the fact that he was once a robber?"
Bell-mère's body stiffened. Before he said anything, he...
Dylan ignored the surprised Bell-mère and continued to move forward, "Some people have been villains all their lives, and in the end, they did only one trivial good deed and were praised by the world.
Some people have stuck to justice their whole life, and just did one wrong thing and were despised by thousands of people."
"The people are always ignorant. I don't have expectations for most people, but Bell-mère... I think you should make your own judgment because you are a Marine!"
Ever since she met Dylan, Bell-mère had rarely heard him speak to her in such a serious tone.
These words also affected Bell-mère greatly.
"Some monks warn the world - 'Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately.' I don't really agree. If every villain puts down the butcher's knife at the last moment, does that mean that his past sins can be wiped out? This is unfair. It's also unreasonable."
"Of course...people's hearts are unpredictable. Maybe one day in the future, Bell-mère, you will also see me killing someone who you think is not worthy of death or even completely innocent for no reason. When that time comes, Bell-mère...how will you choose?"
Bell-mère in the snow frowned.
Ten years ago in the Oykot Kingdom of East Blue, she personally participated in a battle with pirates. The battle was extremely tragic and she was seriously injured. It was there that she picked up Nami and Nojiko.
In Cocoyasi Village, she witnessed Arlong's brutality, and she almost lost her life.
In the West Blue Kano Country, she saw how powerless people lived in a country that relied on robbery for a living.
East Blue...compared to other sea areas and the Grand Line, it's already too happy.
During the two months of training at the headquarters, she also learned that, apart from the restrictions on the route, the biggest contributors to all of this were Marine's hero - Vice Admiral Garp and the man in front of her.
The name "The Weakest Sea" is just a joke among pirates.
But it is a very lucky thing for the people.
The howling wind and snow passed over Bell-mère's pink hair. In the wind and snow, the figure of the man in front did not show any hesitation or doubt.
But he seemed extremely lonely!
Bell-mère clenched her fists.
No...it shouldn't be like this...it shouldn't be like this!
In an instant, huge coercion erupted from Bell-mère's body, facing the howling wind and snow, almost forming an evenly matched counterattack.
Dylan, who was walking in front, turned around and looked at Bell-mère, who had a black thunderous aura around her.
"?"
"Dylan..." Bell-mère's eyes became determined, and her momentum continued to rise.
"I... won't hesitate anymore."
In the castle on the top of the mountain, Dr. Kureha looked at the black thunder in the mountains and sighed.
"It's true... both of them are like monsters...'D'...'Tinder'...you guys are not going to have a good time..."
······
As soon as Dylan and his group walked out of the mountains, a group of soldiers surrounded them.
"According to the king's decree, no one is allowed to seek medical treatment in the Drum Kingdom. You have violated the laws of this country..."
The guard looked at Dylan, who was tall, god-tier and cold-hearted, and then looked at Bell-mère next to him.
"So what?"
"So you will all be executed! Mahahaha." A fat man wearing a white bear hooded cloak stood behind the guards.
The King of the Drum Kingdom - Wapol.
The moment she saw Wapol, Bell-mère's expression turned cold.
During the month she was recovering in the castle, she heard many rumors about this man.
The main culprit that has made this country "sick" is this disgusting man in front of her.
Dylan raised his hand, and the guards looked tense.
Take action!?
Dylan pulled back his sleeve to reveal the Den Den Mushi inside: "Here comes the work, help me find a fruit, 'Munch-Munch Fruit.'"
In the Den Den Mushi, the masked image of CP0 showed a confused look: "'Munch-Munch Fruit'? Hasn't it been eaten by someone?"
"Yes. But I heard that once the eater dies, the fruit will reappear somewhere in the world. Is that true?"
"·········"
"The Drum Kingdom is a member country of the World Government..."
"CP0 shouldn't care about this."
The problem is that you are not a f**king CP0! You're Marine, bastard!
"You can find excuses for the aftermath by yourself, and find the fruit for me as soon as possible. Well... then I will trade you some information about the Revolutionary Army, and that's it."
That's it!? What do you mean???
Wait, information from the Revolutionary Army!?
CP0 looked at the Den Den Mushi, who had closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Drum Kingdom...
Let him be.
After disconnecting the Den Den Mushi, Dylan turned to look at Bell-mère.
"Go ahead and carry out your 'justice'."
Bell-mère stood next to Dylan and listened to the conversation between him and CP0.
Upon hearing Dylan's words, Bell-mère's eyebrows rose, and her body disappeared.
