The Sharon Kingdom, crushed beneath the Celestial Dragons' oppression to the point where it could barely breathe; the Marine Branch destroyed by Sharon Lawrence and his men; Sharon Lawrence, whose arm had been severed by Tsugikuni Yoriichi.
Among these people and these events, who was good and who was evil? How could a few words possibly make it clear?
In the hearts of the people of the Sharon Kingdom, Sharon Lawrence, who sought to lead the Sharon Kingdom out from under the Celestial Dragons' shackles, was undoubtedly good. If they wanted to survive, they could no longer continue paying Heavenly Gold to the Celestial Dragons.
But what had the Marines stationed at the Sharon Kingdom's Marine Branch done wrong? The Sharon Kingdom had been forced to take advantage of the Marines' large-scale operation to secretly wipe out the branch Marines and completely seal off the Sharon Kingdom, but those branch personnel had merely been carrying out their duties.
Perhaps most ordinary Marines never understood, even until their deaths, why Sharon Lawrence had taken the initiative to attack the Marine Branch.
At the same time, for Tsugikuni Yoriichi, severing his enemy's arm had already been an act of restraint.
Tsugikuni Yoriichi was no saint. He could not stand by and let Sharon Lawrence do whatever he pleased aboard the warship.
Kuzan looked at Sharon Lily, then at the Sharon Kingdom guards standing on the deck, and for a moment, he had no idea what to do. Kill them all? From Kuzan's standpoint, there seemed to be nothing wrong with that. After all, these people were the chief culprits behind the attack on the Marine Branch.
But would killing them solve everything? Kuzan knew that if he did only that, his turbulent heart would never settle.
Then should he let them go?
