It had been two days since his last conversation with Pax. During these two days, Sakasugi had been in a state of uncertainty, thinking about how to choose his future path.
Sakasugi could not be blamed for being so slow. After all, this was a matter of life and death. If he did not consider it carefully, there would be no medicine for regret in the future. When the time came, he would have no place to cry.
The great sea routes of this era, excluding the world government, had two camps: the navy and the pirates.
Every person who had a dream of going out to sea, whether they were willing or not, would always choose one side or lean towards one side. There was no such thing as a third party fence-sitter.
Navy or pirates! Justice or evil!
Personally speaking, Sakasugi was more inclined to the navy, not because he was righteous, but because, as he said, it was easier to get shade under a big tree and cultivate in the Six Fan School.
If he joined the navy, he would be able to surpass the pirates in terms of resources.
However, although there were many benefits to joining the navy, there were also disadvantages. Putting aside the inexplicable grudge in Sakaski's heart, the navy itself was not very reliable.
Sakasugi, who was familiar with the history of the future, naturally knew that the future would be a world of great strife. Dragons and snakes would rise, heroes would rise, and the ambitious tyrants would come one after another.
In this turbulent era, the navy, which had existed for hundreds of years, had gradually fallen into decline.
Not to mention the fact that the internal structure of the navy was already bloated, rotten, and dark, just the fact that they were standing on the opposite side of the pig's foot showed that the future of the navy was worrying.
Therefore, although the navy looked strong and powerful now, in reality, in the future, the navy would be a big trap.
If Sakaski wanted to join the navy, this would be a serious problem that he could not avoid. He also needed to consider whether he wanted to be the one to turn the tide.
"Wan Tianqing? This is nothing. It's a crisis and an opportunity. As long as I have the ability, this building will collapse and help me rise to the top.”
Rubbing his swollen temples, Sakasugi, who was resting in the cabin, consoled himself. His eyes were filled with confidence.
After considering so many things about the navy, it was time to talk about pirates. Speaking of pirates…
Alright then!
To be honest, even though he had two choices, Sakasugi had never thought of becoming a pirate from the very beginning. The only reason he was so conflicted now was because of the grudge that had inexplicably taken root in his heart.
What were the benefits of being a pirate?
Freedom?
Stop fooling around!
There was no freedom in this world! Even if they had freedom, they definitely had nothing to do with pirates.
No matter which world you were in, what truly gave you freedom was strength, not a certain profession. This was especially true in the world that Sakasugi was in.
Therefore, saying that pirates were free and carefree was definitely the biggest joke in the world. It would be a joke if it was said.
If you had the strength, you would naturally be free. If you didn't have the strength, then you would personally experience what it meant to be in control of life and death, and what it meant to be cruel in the pirate world.
It was said that the navy was dark, but even so, they still had to pay attention to the rules and put on some hypocritical appearances. They were not like pirates. In the world of pirates, if you did not have strength, you really had nothing.
No freedom, no dignity, not even the most basic autonomy of life.
That was why Sakasugi had chosen an option that was obviously inferior to the former since it was all about strength!
As a transmigrator who had been deeply influenced by the culture of China, Sakasugi knew one thing very well. You could be a thief, but you couldn't be a thief forever.
Those who steal the hook are killed, and those who steal the country are marquises!

The huge merchant ship sailed on the boundless sea. At the highest point of the merchant ship, the captain was leisurely reading the newspaper in the cockpit.
Now that the direction had been determined, all that was left was to steer the ship along the established route, so the captain could naturally take a break from his busy schedule.
The captain drank a cup of coffee and felt the fragrance of the coffee melting in his mouth. His face was filled with enjoyment.
However, before the captain could enjoy himself for too long, a violent knock on the door interrupted his leisure time, causing him to feel a wave of dissatisfaction.
"Which blind guy doesn't know that I'm busy right now! How dare you disturb me!" The captain cursed in his heart and put down the coffee in his hand with an unhappy expression. "I hope it's something important. Otherwise, watch how I deal with you!”
He got up and went to open the door, only to see an old man he relied on standing outside. At this moment, this usually calm old man was panicking.
"What happened?" Seeing the panicked expression on his old buddy's face, the captain's heart tightened. He could not care less about his displeasure and quickly asked.
"Not…Not good! Captain, there are pirates!" Without any hesitation, the old man screamed, his voice filled with unease.
"What?! There are pirates? How is this possible? Haven't the pirates on this route been cleared by the navy? Why are there pirates here?!" Hearing his old friend's words, the captain also cried out involuntarily.
"Captain, what should we do now?”The old man asked.
"What else can we do? Of course, he had to run faster! That's right! How big was the group of pirates? How far away are they from us?" The captain said calmly. His years of sailing experience were not in vain.
"I observed through the binoculars just now. It's a pirate group of quite a large scale. There are at least a hundred people, and it's far from what we can resist.”The old man quickly replied.
"What?! It was already less than six kilometers away! Then why are you still standing there! Hurry up and get those guys at the bottom of the ship to speed up! Are you waiting for those pirates to capture us?”
After hearing his old buddy's words, the captain couldn't help but curse. At the same time, he extinguished some of the little thoughts in his heart. He hurriedly asked his old buddy to urge the crew, while he himself began to use the broadcast to warn the passengers in the cabin.

"Yes! Pirates!" In the lounge, after hearing the captain's announcement, Sakaski opened his eyes…
