Chapter 244: Sakasky (1st Update)
"He was a kind child."
"In his childhood, there was a tragic experience that ordinary people could not bear."
"He changed, he became selfish, he became cold, he became decisive..."
"He killed the pirates of the enemy ships, he killed the navy, he even killed civilians..."
"But he wasn't originally such a person, it was his childhood experience that formed his current personality, and it was the world that was wrong."
"He used to be gentle with everyone, but now this gentleness is only left to his sister."
"Actually, this is a very pitiful, distressing brother and sister."
「……」
No matter how evil a criminal is, no matter how many bad things he has done.
As long as he can tell his story and make a few pitiful expressions now, it is easy for passers-by to ignore the crimes he has committed, and make passers-by feel that all this is actually excusable.
If this criminal can be more handsome/beautiful, the effect of "whitewashing" will be even more significant.
This is a kind of "compassion" that comes from the depths of human genes.
There is an essential difference between humans and other animals.
Human beings will hate the rich, not the poor; Human beings will have higher requirements for the top students, but the standard for the scumbags is "this is already good".
When the criminal shows a pitiful look and even adds some stories, human beings will always feel that this criminal is actually quite distressing, and it is better to be light.
Objectively, this is very unfair.
But this is a unique psychology engraved on the human genetic sequence.
In the animal kingdom, there is no such thing as "sympathy" at all.
When a person sees an injured rabbit, even if it is implemented in reality, the vast majority of people may be indifferent, but deep in their hearts, they must have had the emotion of "helping this little rabbit".
But if the animal sees this little rabbit, except for herbivores, the other animals will definitely take this little rabbit as a ration from God.
The difference between human beings and other animals, in addition to their superior intelligence, is this kind of sympathy that is contrary to the laws of survival in nature, and this is the so-called human nature; Of course, human nature is actually very complicated, and there is only one point involved here.
A soldier should control his emotions to the greatest extent and deal with the events he faces with absolute rationality.
The Pirate Belen's character, origins, past stories, and relationship with his sister don't matter.
He's a pirate, he's killed civilians, his sister killed 26 navy... As an admiral, it's enough to know that, and then it's time to bring them to justice.
The curvature of the corners of Belen's mouth before he died surprised Hailan for a moment, but that was all.
Killing him, Hailan didn't have any mood swings at all.
As for the story behind Belen, Hailan has no interest, and there is no need to do an in-depth understanding.
If there's one thing you need to pay attention to, it's to see if any of the fish slipped through the net to inform the Whitebeard Pirates.
……
"Hey, hey... I can let you run 99 steps first!! ”
A pirate is blocked by a detachment of navy.
Bucky, the leader, stuck out his tongue and licked the dagger in his hand, beaming with pride.
The other soldiers were stopped by him.
"But... Damn it! ”
The pirate half-convinced and ran out, and as the soldiers looked at him anxiously, Bucky raised his hand, his right hand grasped the dagger, and it was fired like a mechanical arm.
“... Look at my 100-step flying knife! ”
The rest of the Navy soldiers' eyes turned into beanie eyes, and all that was left was a slit to watch Bucky play the trick.
Poof...
Bucky stabbed the fleeing pirate to the ground.
Pap, pap, pap, pap, pap...
Applause rang out.
The Navy soldiers were expressionless: "Amazing, amazing." ”
"Hey... Can you stop dealing with it like that? Be emotional, have emotional! ”
In Bucky's bouncing around, the last pirate finally closes his eyes.
Lieutenant General Jonathan smiled heartily: "What an energetic young man..."
The special operations force led by him did not find the ambush of the pirates, but instead made dumplings for the escaped pirates with the Bucky team they met by chance.
Lieutenant General Jonathan looked up at the sky: "It's Lieutenant General Hailan who is back, it looks like it's all over." ”
In the harbor, the five burning pirate ships had already slowly sunk into the sea, and the raging flames that rushed into the sky, like a lighthouse, pointed out the direction for Hailan to return.
"What about the pirates?"
As soon as he saw Hailan, Akainu couldn't wait to ask.
He didn't ask Hailan if he was hurt, but asked about the pirates first.
Akainu is one such person.
"Successful crusade."
"Good!"
Akainu did not doubt Hailan's answer, but yelled at the navy behind him: "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield, keep me busy!" ”
"Yes!"
Under the orders of Akainu, no soldier dared to be lazy, and no soldier dared to complain.
But the funny thing is that every soldier is very motivated.
At the very least, by the side of the red dog, at least the life is guaranteed.
Taking off his navy hat, Akainu tidied up his flowing hairstyle, "It's really not the same as Mr. Zefa, but you are more suitable for this world." ”
Only Hailan was left by Akainu's side, so Hailan knew that Akaiu was talking about herself.
Hailan asked, "Do you have any opinions about him?" ”
"Yes."
Akainu did not shy away from it, "He is too merciful, he will let the pirates go every time, if it weren't for his principle of 'don't kill', you wouldn't have made a trip to the Ghost Gate, and my wife wouldn't have died." ”
For Zefa, after getting along for so many years, Hailan still has a lot of feelings.
As for the mother who had never met, she didn't feel it at all.
So when Akainu said this, Hailan barely reacted.
But in the eyes of Akainu, Hailan's attitude has become excellent qualities such as "unfazed" and "tenacious".
On the contrary, when mentioning the tragedy of Zefa back then, there was a trace of waves in Akainu's tone, and even his skin turned a little redder, but it quickly returned to its original state.
"I like Mr. Zefa very much, but I don't like his principle of 'don't kill', since he is unwilling to kill the pirates, then those pirates who are let go by him will be destroyed by me, Sakasky!"
Maybe it was because of the complete annihilation of the pirates, Akainu was in a good mood, so even the usually taciturn he said a few more words.
"Do you think I went a little too far by killing that girl thief just before?
See those busy soldiers? ”
Akainu pointed to the navy, which was cleaning up the battlefield.
"When you can still see them active in the playground today, but you can only see them in the cemetery tomorrow, I think you may choose the same as me."
