Time passed slowly, like a white horse passing through a crevice without stopping.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since the incident with the Mad Dog Pirates, and the merchant ship was getting closer and closer to its destination.
It was worth mentioning that Sakasugi's status had changed drastically in just three days.
Three days ago, Sakaski was unknown. He was just one of the many merchant ship passengers. Other than Pax, no one would look at him differently.
Three days later, Sakasugi had become the most important person on the merchant ship, the most honorable person, and the most indispensable person.
Every time Sakaski walked out of the lounge, there would always be people who came to greet him and unabashedly cast him grateful and respectful gazes.
Sakasugi didn't have much of an impression of this, because he had already experienced it back on Earth.
No matter which world it was, strength was always the most respected thing. Humans were always passionate about pursuing strength.
Survival of the fittest was the law of nature.
The strong preyed on the weak. This was the absolute law of human society.
There were many types of power. Wealth was power, power was power, and martial arts was power. As long as one had superhuman power, they would have the so-called power.
On Earth, people envied the endless wealth of the rich and yearned for the supreme power of the officials.
In the world of pirates, where martial strength reigned supreme, martial strength was the most revered thing, and the strong were the targets that everyone had to worship.
Among the pirates, Sakasugi was a powerhouse. On Earth, he also possessed the same strength.
………………………………………………
Sakasugi leaned against the fence alone and looked at the sea in the distance, enjoying the moment when he was alone.
Ever since he transmigrated to the pirate world, Sakasugi had fallen in love with watching, listening to, and embracing the sea.
The sea accepts hundreds of rivers, and it is big if it has tolerance. The wall stands thousands of feet high, and it is strong if it has no desire.
The sea could always teach people many things. Although Sakasugi was a demon fruit ability user who hated the sea, he loved the sea from the bottom of his heart and loved this magical creation.
"Sakasugi!"
A slightly reserved, aged voice rang out in Sakasugi's ears. Upon hearing this voice, Sakasugi opened his eyes without any surprise.
"Old Master Pax, why are you looking for me?”
The person who appeared in front of Sakasugi was Pax. Pax couldn't help but laugh bitterly in his heart when he heard Sakasugi's address. This was a rather embarrassing address!
If it was three days ago, Pax wouldn't mind calling him that. But now…it was a little harsh!
Pax shook his head silently in his heart. He didn't think too much about the things that made him feel uncomfortable. Facing Sakasugi's question, he very straightforwardly told him his purpose.
"Sakasugi, we'll be arriving at Saint Peter Island soon. We'll be parting ways then. This is my contact number. If you need my help, you can contact me using this contact number.”
Pax took out a piece of paper with words written on it and nervously handed it to Sakasugi, as if he was worried that Sakasugi would not accept it.
Now, everyone's status was different. Previously, Pax thought that his status was higher than Sakasugi's, so he could ignore Sakasugi's thoughts. If he wanted to befriend him, he could do so. If he didn't, he wouldn't lose anything.
However, things were different now. Sakasugi's status was far higher than Pax's. Pax could only carefully curry favor with Sakasugi in the face of his strength, hoping to build a relationship with him. Even if it was just a little bit, Pax would still benefit greatly.
With Sakasugi's current strength and his plans to join the navy, Pax felt that he would definitely have a great backer in the future!
Seeing the paper in Pax's hand, Sakasugi could clearly sense the nervousness in his heart. His eyes flickered for a moment, but he still took the paper from Pax's hand.
………………………………………………
Sakasugi couldn't help but sigh as he watched Pax leave and his aged figure. He then casually stuffed the paper in his hand into his pocket.
Was this the so-called profit-seeking businessmen? As expected of an old fox! How disappointing!
Sakasugi didn't think too much about Pax. He turned his attention to St. Peter Island.
" Saint Peter Island isn't far from the navy headquarters. There are only two or three islands between them. It will take at most a day to reach…"
As he silently calculated the distance in his mind, Sakasugi had already decided to join the navy. After all, the growth of the Fire Spirit Goldfinger was inseparable from the soul of the pirates.
If Sakaski joined the pirate camp, he would definitely be viewed with hostility by all the pirates because he hunted pirates. At that time, the pirate navy would not be pleased by both sides, and that would be very troublesome.
As for why he joined the pirate camp, he still had to hunt pirates instead of slaughtering civilians?
Haha!
Sakasugi wasn't a good person, and even he admitted that. A person like him who would do anything for his own selfish interests really wasn't a good person.
However, it would be a little biased to say that Sakasugi was a bad person. From a certain perspective, Sakasugi was not an absolute bad person. At least he had his own bottom line.
As a person, Sakasugi had always felt that no matter if he was a good person or a bad person, he should at least have a certain bottom line, even if it might be very low.
If a person did not even have the most basic bottom line, then in a sense, this person might not even be considered a human.
There was a gray area between black and white, and there was a mixture of good and evil between good and evil. Strictly speaking, Sakasugi was more like a lone ranger wandering between black and white than he was trying to differentiate between black and white, good and evil.
A gentleman has to do something and not do it. Similarly, a person has to do something and not do it.
Sakasugi could use the lives of countless pirates to feed the Fire Spirit, but he could not use the life of an ordinary person for the growth of the Fire Spirit without any reason.
This was Sakasugi's choice. It had nothing to do with the Virgin Mary, conscience, or justice. It was only because Sakasugi was unwilling, unwilling, and unable. That was all.
