Giant Guards for Ten Years!
Judge Emerson, currently in charge of judge training at the Legal Talent Court of the Supreme Court.
Judge Jerome, currently in charge of judges' promotions and evaluations, is in the Judges Court Review.
The current Legal Inspection Court is responsible for overseeing lower-level judges Four Seas and has the power to Russell judicial vessels.
The three men, under the watchful eyes of the two Titans and guarded by government officials from the Supervision Division, Earth Flow over dejectedly.
So many years have passed, and these former grassroots officials are now a presiding judge and two senior judges. They never dreamed that they would have such a day.
"Emerson, Jerome, Russell, do you admit that twenty-six years ago you falsely claimed that the World Government had captured Dorry and Brogy of the Giant Warrior Pirates, thus deceiving Mr. Oimo and Mr. Kashii into guarding Enies Lobby for a hundred years?"
Grover, in his righteous and stern questioning of the past, adopted a completely official and just stance.
"Yes."
"That's right."
After a moment of silence, the three men nodded painfully in confession. What else could they do? Were they supposed to admit that they were also acting on orders from their superiors?
But if I say that, my family members will definitely suffer as well.
They are no longer newcomers to officialdom.
It was clear that he had become a discarded pawn. Since he couldn't resist, he could only accept reality. At least if he cooperated, he would be the only one who suffered.
"You! You bastards!!"
Kashii roared in exasperation, the sound so loud it seemed to create a strong gust of wind that caused Director Grover's expensive suit and hair to flutter wildly.
"Damn it! You all deserve to die!" Oimo, wielding a spiked club, was equally enraged.
Although for Giants with a lifespan of three hundred years, twenty-six years is equivalent to about nine years for humans, so it doesn't feel like a very long time.
But I'm still very angry.
Or rather, these Giants were more concerned about being deceived than about the twenty-six years they had wasted.
"Mr. Oimo, Mr. Kashii, given their status as judges, the rules dictate that they cannot be adjudicated by the Judiciary. Emerson and Jerome will be handled by our Supervision Division."
"But Russell is the Legal Inspection Court, a second-level senior official, and must be handed over to the Grand Committee under the Supreme Governing Committee."
Director Grover's words once again drew the Titans' attention.
"So what are you going to do with them?" Kashii asked in a deep voice, suppressing her anger. Oimo, standing beside her, also stared silently at the seemingly powerful director.
"Emerson and Jerome, in my capacity as Supervision Division, I hereby announce the revocation of their judicial qualifications and sentence them to death!"
Chief Justice Grover uttered the word "death penalty" without any hesitation, causing Judges Emerson and Jerome in front of him to tremble, their heads bowed and their faces filled with despair.
"And execute him immediately!"
Before he could finish speaking, Kashii and Oimo had even reacted when they saw the Supervision Division next to them pull a pistol from his inner pocket.
[Bang! Bang!]
Two crisp, clean gunshots rang out, instantly piercing the heads of Judge Emerson and Judge Jerome, leaving everyone present stunned.
Beside.
Although Judge Russell knew he wouldn't die here, he was still trembling violently with fear, and cold sweat had already seeped out from his head and back.
"This... this..."
Kashii and Oimo stared at the corpse lying in a pool of blood, speechless for a long time. It wasn't that they were frightened by the dead, but rather that they hadn't expected to die so quickly.
"On their behalf, I extend my sincerest apologies to the two who were deceived, and I sincerely hope that they will not harbor resentment towards the World Government because of this, nor will they allow it to affect our friendship with the Giants."
Director Grover raised his head and said in a deep voice.
The friendship between the World Government and the Giants that he mentioned refers to seventy-four years ago.
The friendship that blossoms between four Giants have caused a major disaster and are saved by Mother Carmel when they are about to be executed by the Marine Headquarters.
Since then, Mother Carmel has established the 'Lamb House' in the Giant Kingdom of Elbaf, a place that shelters homeless children regardless of race or status.
Using this as a base, they continuously supplied the Marine Headquarters with Titans warriors, also known as the Giant Unit.
Therefore, the relationship between the World Government and the Giants is indeed quite good. Although Elbaf did not join the World Government, they are strong enough that they naturally do not need to go to the East Blue to build a bridge.
Kashii and Oimo were naturally aware of this, because the four Giants who were captured were actually members of their Giant Warrior Pirates.
Seeing Chief Grover's sincere attitude, the two quickly waved their hands and said, "Of course, of course, there are bad people among us Giants, we understand that, and we won't blame you!"
While Giants are generally known for their rugged and bold nature, interestingly, they are also Pacifista on a large scale.
Yes.
True Pacifista are those who enjoy fighting anytime, anywhere, but dislike starting wars indiscriminately. Therefore, it can be said that the Giants is very gentle!
"That's great. But as we said before, we need to take Judge Russell with us, but I can guarantee he won't have a good ending. He'll most likely be imprisoned in Impel Down Impel Down!" said Chief Grover.
Okay, we believe you!
Kashii and Oimo exchanged a glance and nodded, finally Zero a smile.
"Oh, right."
Just as the men in black were cleaning up the two corpses, Director Grover seemed to have thought of something and said, "According to our intelligence, Captain Dorry and Captain Brogy are still dueling in that 'Little Garden.' They must be heading there to meet after leaving, right?"
"That's right!"
"We definitely need to meet him!" The two Titans nodded.
"That's great. May I ask you two for a favor?" Director Grover asked amiably, as if he wanted to strike while the iron was hot.
"Go ahead and tell me, consider it a thank you for telling us the truth!"
Kashii patted his chest and laughed heartily. In their view, the fact that the World Government was willing to tell the truth and punish the culprits was equivalent to saving them the next seventy-four years.
This is absolutely a debt of gratitude!
"It is like this, a distinguished World Noble will be traveling far away soon, and we would like to ask the two of you to serve as his guards for a period of time."
Upon hearing this, Kashii hesitated, instinctively glancing at Oimo beside her, and asked, "What do you think?"
The latter thought for a moment and said, "Protecting the guards is not a problem, but wouldn't that conflict with our meeting with the captain and the others?"
"No, that won't happen. The World Noble expressed a desire to meet the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates from back then, so it was just a coincidence that he was going that way."
Chief Grover gave a brief explanation, which reassured Oimo, who smiled at Kashii and said, "Since that's the case, let's agree. How about ten years? Being his bodyguard for ten years is a way of repaying his kindness!"
"Okay, that's only right!"
Kashii nodded emphatically, stood up, hoisted the giant axe onto his shoulder, and laughed heartily at the short, insignificant director on the ground, "We'll take care of that World Noble's safety for ten years!"
