Justice for All

Sengoku, Garp, and the others frowned as they watched the lively scene outside the door.

"Garp, you should go!"

"I can just say a few words to these reporters from all over the world."

"Now that we've sent them away, it's time for us to head back to headquarters."

Sengoku stretched and sighed.

"These past few days have been exhausting."

Then, his headache returned.

Roger's dying words will likely plunge the world into further chaos.

"What a hassle!"

Upon Wen Yan, Garp burst into laughter. "Hahahaha!"

"Don't come to me with this kind of thing."

"You know I'm not good with words. It wouldn't be good if I made a mistake in front of the whole world and caused even greater chaos."

He waved his hand as he tossed the donut into his mouth.

Sengoku looked helpless and turned his head to Zephyr again.

"You know, I'm good at teaching students, but not good at dealing with reporters."

Zephyr said in a deep voice.

Sengoku covered his forehead; he really didn't want to face this group of reporters from around the world.

Because the questions they ask are often embarrassing and leave people speechless.

Suddenly, he remembered someone, and his eyes lit up.

"Then let Xia Le go!"

"He has the right position and a solid track record; he's the one who captured Roger, the Golden Lion."

"He's the best choice to face those reporters!"

Undoubtedly, Xia Le has become a frequent figure in world news recently, and is a star in the Navy, with many young people idolizing him.

If Xia Le were to step in, he would probably be more suitable than them.

Most importantly, it saved him trouble!

A moment later, Xia Le was summoned, and he was immediately taken aback when he heard the order given by Sengoku.

"You want me to face reporters from all over the world?"

But I can't speak!

Sengoku pushed him away with both hands, laughing as he did so, "It doesn't matter, just say whatever you want."

"Your ideals, the Justice you believe in, are all acceptable."

"If you can get rid of them, you'll have accomplished a great feat!"

And so, in a daze, Xia Le found himself standing before a group of eager reporters and Image Den Den Mushi).

"Vice Admiral Xia Le, I heard that you were the one who captured Roger and Golden Lion Shiki? Is that true?"

A reporter asked.

"I did it."

Xia Le nodded.

"I've heard you're Hero of the Navy, a disciple of Vice Admiral Garp?"

"Yes, Teacher Garp has always been a hero I admire and respect."

Xia Le nodded.

"Vice Admiral Xia Le, what is Justice in your heart?"

A reporter asked excitedly.

Chapter 85 Equal Justice

A young, capable lieutenant Vice Admiral, and a celebrity, is someone whose words would surely interest the world greatly.

It's easy to imagine that if this interview were to be circulated, their news agency's popularity would skyrocket.

Is Justice?

Xia Le pondered for a moment, then answered seriously.

"The Justice I envision is equality between people."

"Absolute equality above all human dignity, regardless of social status or race!"

After he finished speaking, he faced the camera of the Den Den Mushi and gave a bright smile.

Completely oblivious to the horrified expressions on the faces of the reporters before them.

"I once heard a friend talk about our navy's goal of striving to become stronger and constantly working towards that goal."

He said.

Xia Le pursed her lips, but a smile remained on her face.

"We become stronger not to become superior to others."

"Instead, it will ensure that no one in this world is superior!"

The seemingly calm sound silenced the world.

All the reporters' faces changed drastically, and they were trembling all over. The image on the Image Den Den Mushi was shaking, but Xia Le's voice kept echoing in every Island, every country, and every region.

The world seemed to freeze for about ten seconds.

Silence reigned, utterly still.

Absolute equality between people and between races.

Equal Justice!

Such a sound was like a thunderclap in a clear sky for the world at that moment, causing countless people to tremble, become excited, and feel frenzied.

It is in no way inferior to the last words of Gol Pirate King Roger, before his death, which ignited human ambition.

What he said next sent chills down the spines of countless people, and a nameless Flame ignited within them.

Striving to become stronger and join the Navy is not about becoming a superior person!

Instead, it will ensure that no one in this world is superior to another!

Countless established powerhouses recalled the times when they were weak and oppressed, trampled on by others.

Countless weak people felt a raging fire burning in their hearts!

They thought that if they wanted to change the world, it wasn't to become superior to others, but to realize the dream that there would be no more superior people.

The world has gone mad! Xia Le's words have plunged it into a silent frenzy.

"Equality!"

"No one is superior anymore!"

Countless people murmured to themselves, and a seed was planted in their hearts.

The Marine Vice Admiral named Xia Le was deeply etched in their memories and could never be forgotten.

These words were so powerful and thought-provoking, they were like a thunderclap that shook the world.

"As the navy, we are dedicated to the peace and well-being of countless civilians."

"So-called Justice is not the Justice of the victors, but the Justice of protecting the weak."

"Because everyone grows from weak to strong."

After a pause, Xia Le, facing the stunned camera, continued to smile and speak.

"I remember how weak I was back in the Sabaody Archipelago."

Just then, a reporter suddenly realized what was happening and shook his head repeatedly in alarm, gesturing for silence.

"My friend, what's wrong?"

Xia Le asked, puzzled.

Then, all the reporters realized what was happening and looked at him with expressions of horror and shock.

The other party's words were too alarming for the world.

If everyone is equal, then what about the Celestial Dragons, the Nobles of the nation?

This is nothing short of a thunderous statement capable of overturning the entire world!

Just then, Sengoku walked out with a gloomy expression, covered Xia Le's mouth, and then shouted angrily at the reporters.

"Cut it off!!"

"Delete this entire paragraph!!"

Then, he grabbed Xia Le and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

Only a group of terrified reporters remained, staring at each other nervously. But when they looked down at the Image Den Den Mushi, they wore expressions of helplessness and despair.

This is a live broadcast!

This means that Xia Le's words were heard by the entire world just now.

--

"You bastard!! What nonsense are you spouting?!"

Within the temporary encampment in Loguetown.

Sengoku's roar was heard by everyone in the base.

"?"

Xia Le looked puzzled and confused.

"Just say whatever comes to mind to get rid of them!"

What exactly are you talking about?

"Do you know what kind of impact these words would have on the world if they got out?"

"Warring Sengoku!" roared.

Xia Le scratched his head. "I'm speaking of Justice!"

"Isn't Justice about standing before ordinary people and protecting their right to life, safety, and survival?"

"And our navy is the last line of defense in front of them, isn't it?"

Upon Wen Yan, Sengoku's expression froze. "You're right."

"But."

"But."

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter the next words.

Just then, Garp's loud laughter came from the side.

"Sengoku, stop looking like that!"

"I think Xia Le is absolutely right!"

"Otherwise, what exactly is Justice for the Navy?"

"In our eyes, the lives of ordinary people are just as important, aren't they?"

He paused, then added jokingly.
