Chapter 333: Unbelievable, Take It as Fact
In order to help Lu Kai get rid of suspicion more quickly, Kuzan has been extremely active over the past month and finally made a personal trip to the Drum Kingdom for Lu Kai.
Therefore, it would be unreasonable for Lu Kai not to express his opinion. He even planned to prepare a generous gift to thank Kuzan after the meeting.
There was a time when there was a rift between Luke and Kuzan because Garp favored Luke too much.
But later, as they got to know each other better, and because they both had a mutual friend, Sauron, the relationship between Luke and Kuzan gradually became good.
Later, when the O'Hara incident happened, although Kuzan froze Sauron, there was a way to thaw him. As the user of the Ice Fruit, Kuzan knew this better than anyone else.
So although Kuzan seemed to have frozen Saulon for the sake of justice, he might have intended to let him go secretly.
Later, Luke sank half of O'Hara with one blow, and the frozen Sauron fell into the sea. Others might not be able to see the clues, but Kuzan knew that Luke did it on purpose to help Sauron thaw.
But both of them kept it a secret and never mentioned it in front of anyone. They also pretended to be stupid and said nothing to each other.
But because they have a little secret in common, the relationship between the two people has become better.
Kuzan believes that although Luke appears to support Sakaski's kind of thorough justice, all the pirates that Luke has fought against are full of evil.
So in Kuzan's eyes, deep down in his heart, Luke actually upholds the same justice as him, that is, the justice of putting the people first, which is deeply influenced by Garp.
Some people think that Kuzan practices lazy justice, but this is not the case. He will only become lazy or even heartbroken when the orders of the headquarters go against Kuzan's justice.
However, once the orders from the headquarters are in line with Kuzan's sense of justice, he will immediately become more active than anyone else. However, Kuzan at this time did not intend to go to the extent of Lukai and overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.
Kuzan has an ideal in his heart, which is to become the marshal of the navy headquarters, and then do his best to change the navy's atmosphere, so that everyone will regard protecting the people as their first responsibility.
Many people have a deep misunderstanding about Kuzan's later joining of the Blackbeard Pirates, thinking that he changed his position on justice, but Kuzan was actually forced to do so at that time.
At this time, Kuzan had already come up with the idea of solving everything from the root and completely overthrowing the rule of the Celestial Dragons.
But he knew very well that he could not do it with his own ability alone, so he needed the help of Blackbeard's power, even though he knew that Blackbeard was evil.
But for the whole world, if the existence of the Celestial Dragons is a huge cancer, if the world wants to regain its vitality, it needs to cut the Gordian knot and remove this cancer.
Kuzan thinks it is worth it if he can exchange temporary pain or sacrifice for long-term peace in the world.
Kuzan even planned to use Blackbeard's power to achieve his own goals, and then use some other means to deal with the Blackbeard Pirates, and then restore order to the world.
But that's all in the future, and Luke believes that this possibility will no longer happen after he came to this world. The Dark-Dark Fruit is gone, so what kind of trouble can Blackbeard cause?
After Zhan Guo and Lu Kai sat down, Zhan Guo said, “Except for Garp and a few others who haven’t had time to return, everyone else is here, so let’s get started!
"Everyone knows the purpose of this meeting, so I won't go into details. Based on Kuzan and Sakaski's descriptions, combined with the existing intelligence, the identity of the criminal who attacked the Celestial Dragons twice in the past month has been determined."
After he finished speaking, Zhan Guo nodded to his adjutant. Upon seeing this, the adjutant immediately pasted a huge portrait on the huge white board behind Zhan Guo. The portrait showed a ferocious man with dozens of hideous scars on his face.
"This is the criminal who attacked the Celestial Dragons twice in a row. His name is Sandra. He used to be a slave of the Celestial Dragons. About three months ago, Sandra escaped from Marijoa by some unknown means."
After hearing Zhan Guo's introduction, Lu Kai's heart immediately turned cold. It turned out to be another thing done by the Celestial Dragons.
No wonder Kuzan and Sakaski mentioned in their report that Sandra wanted to overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.
Those who were gathered by Sandra must have been victims of the rule of the Celestial Dragons, otherwise they would not be so easily instigated.
Zhan Guo continued: “Since then, Sandra has been hiding her identity. When Sandra reappeared a month ago, she attacked Saint Inovare with thunder and killed him.
“A month later, Sandra struck again and murdered Saint Charmaco, which is the worst and most unforgivable crime in the world.
“The consecutive killing of two Celestial Dragons is a disgrace to our Navy Headquarters, so from now on, all of us must participate in the operation to eliminate Sandra.
"Kuzan, you have fought Sandra directly, so you can tell me the detailed information about Sandra."
Kuzan nodded when he heard this, glanced at everyone, and then told the story of what happened in the Drum Kingdom.
As Kuzan continued to tell the story, everyone was stunned because this Sandra was so weird.
This Sandra can use the ability of Lukai's space fruit, and his body can be elementalized like a natural devil fruit user. His elementalized body cannot be captured by domineering. The strangest thing is that as a user of this ability, he can actually swim in the sea.
Is this really something a normal human being can do?
Even though the person making the report was Kuzan, the most famous vice admiral in the Navy Headquarters, many people still found it hard to believe.
After a long silence, a lieutenant general spoke up, "Why does this sound so dreamy to me?"
"Is this true or false?" another person asked.
Even a staff officer from the Navy Headquarters objected, "Vice Admiral Kuzan, you must have seen it wrong."
"Or did the other party use some special means? A trick to deceive people?"
"Or is there someone hiding out there helping Sandra? Using some special devil fruit ability?"
Kuzan did not give any answers to everyone's doubts.
Kuzan still hasn't fully reacted to what happened to Sandra. Having seen everything with his own eyes, he was more shocked than anyone else.
He even suspected that it was a trick played by the other party, or as everyone said, it was someone else who helped, because what happened to Sandra completely subverted everyone's cognition.
"Quiet!"
Just when everyone was talking, Lu Kai suddenly shouted, and everyone immediately shut up and looked at Lu Kai.
