Chapter 212
Late at night.
In the governor's office of the 1st branch, Borsalino sat on the sofa, holding the teacup in front of him from time to time, drinking tea.
In addition to him, there were two people in the office who did not leave.
That was Rosen's right-hand man.
Dole.
Douglas Barrett.
Since Rosen left the 1st branch a few hours ago, the three of them have not left the office, waiting for each other's return.
"General Kizaru."
"Can I ask you something?"
Dole saw that Borsalino was worried and very restless, so she took the initiative to speak and broke the silence in the office.
As Rosen's adjutant, she needed to find out the way ahead for her boss in advance.
Even if she couldn't pave the way ahead, she had to determine how many stumbling blocks were blocking Rosen's way and who these stumbling blocks were.
"Tell me about it."
Borsalino glanced at Dor, and seeing that the other party was Rosen's adjutant, he did not refuse.
"What if."
"I mean what if, the governor finally found out that it was not someone else who killed Zefa's family, but..."
"The Celestial Dragons."
As soon as Dor said this, the atmosphere in the entire office became extremely depressing.
Although the Navy Headquarters tried its best to maintain the purity of justice, it is undeniable that the Navy Headquarters is a subordinate organization of the World Government and was established by the World Government.
The two seem to be incompatible, but there is an inseparable connection.
For example, in the headquarters, many navy officers can't tell whether they are adhering to the justice of the navy or the justice of the world government.
Even the admirals of the navy are no exception to this.
"As expected, like bosses, like subordinates."
"You! You are exactly the same as my junior."
"You always like to ask me some dangerous questions. Don't you know what justice I uphold?"
Although Borsalino was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but twitch his lips when facing such a sharp question from Dor.
How could he answer?
As a navy admiral, his words and deeds often represent the will of the headquarters.
If a wrong sentence or even a word is heard by the Five Elders, the problem is likely to be infinitely magnified.
Especially such a sharp question as Dor.
"Ambiguous justice."
"Of course I know."
"It's just that the Governor once told me that no matter how ambiguous a person is, there will always be a day when he will make a firm decision, and no matter how ambiguous justice is, there will always be a time when it will be unwavering."
Dor picked up the justice cup and poured the tea in it into the cup in front of Borsalino:
"Among the students taught by Mr. Zefa, apart from the Governor, only Admiral Kizaru will still think about him after graduation and work hard for it until now."
"To be honest, I am also ashamed of my inaction. After all, I am also one of Mr. Zefa's students."
"But now that things have come to this, my opinion is not important. Only the Governor and you who stand at the top of the Navy Headquarters and can determine the direction of the headquarters and justice with every move are crucial."
She put down the justice cup.
"You can choose to avoid it today, but you won't be able to avoid it in the future."
"General Kizaru."
Dor said word by word.
"What about you?"
"What do you plan to choose?"
Borsalino took a sip of tea from the teacup and asked instead of answering.
"Me?"
"I've already bet everything on the Governor."
"I firmly believe that he is a man who can change the navy and even the world."
Dor looked out the window at the dark North Sea:
"When the Governor and I first arrived here, I clearly remember that the North Sea was chaotic and disorderly, and it was the pirate paradise second only to the Grand Line."
"And today, half a year later, the North Sea has a new name."
"Pirate Cemetery."
"I really want to see the area of this cemetery expanded to the east, south, and west seas, and then the paradise and the new world of the Grand Line, burying all the products of the Great Pirate Era."
"Before this day comes, I can be an enemy of the whole world, even if my personal power is insignificant in front of the world."
At this moment.
Dor's eyes became more determined than ever before.
"Sometimes, I really want to be like you, whether it is the future or justice, it is always so clear."
"But the higher you stand, the more you can't help yourself."
"Ambiguity is sometimes not only a kind of justice, but also a responsibility."
Borsalino shook his head, his tone was very complicated.
When Doer heard this and was about to speak, a burst of purple light suddenly came from the night covering the North Sea outside the window, as if cutting the night apart.
Not only her, Borsalino and Douglas Barrett also turned their heads to look out the window at the same time.
Under the gazes of the three, Rosen drove the complete Susanoo from the top of the sky to the first branch.
Click
After a while, the sound of pushing the door was heard.
The closed office door was pushed open by a hand, and then Rosen walked in from the door.
No one noticed that the sleeve of Borsalino's hand holding the teacup was already wet with tea.
The hand holding the Ame-Kume-no-Kume sword, which could make old Rayleigh gasp for air, trembled for the first time.
It can be seen that he was very uneasy.
After all, it was not only Doer who thought so. He also suspected that it was the Celestial Dragons who killed Zefa's family.
Therefore, the more he investigated the death of Zefa's family over the years, the more ambiguous Borsalino's justice became.
"I found it."
Facing the complex eyes of Borsalino under his dark glasses, Rosen walked in front of him and sat opposite him.
"Is it the Celestial Dragons?"
Borsalino took a sip of tea, and his voice revealed a complex and incomprehensible tone.
"It is not certain who killed Zefa's family."
"The only thing we have found so far is the person whose whereabouts were wiped out by CIPHER POL. "
"It's Bajingom."
Rosen's words made Borsalino feel relieved. At least he didn't have to make a choice between his own justice and the World Government.
"How could it be her?"
Borsalino suppressed his complicated emotions. He was a little confused.
The World Government went to great lengths to erase Bajingom's whereabouts at a certain time.
Or, it was Bajingom's whereabouts during the time when Zefa's family was killed.
This is obviously not in line with common sense.
After all, Bajingom's weight is not worth the World Government doing this.
"CP0 is already investigating."
"I think there will be an answer soon."
"What happens next, no matter what it is, you don't need to intervene anymore, senior. "
Rosen said calmly.
"..."
Borsalino's face froze, but his heart was warm.
He knew that Rosen didn't want him to be caught between the World Government and the Navy Justice, and it was difficult to be a man on both sides.
Compared to Dor asking for an answer from him, Rosen's approach moved him and made him ashamed.
He was the senior!
What was the result?
It was Rosen who was investigating the case of Zefa's family.
The name Bakingom was found from CP0 by Rosen who had set up the game for half a year.
Even the sharp problems that might be encountered later, Rosen had already thought about them for him.
From the beginning of their acquaintance.
Borsalino found that his junior brother always argued with himself when encountering things, and always dealt with problems by himself when facing problems.
He never asked others to do it, nor did he make it difficult for him, and he would never force him to make a choice in the name of justice and the friendship between brothers.
"It's really embarrassing! "
"If I had known before coming here, I should have worn a pair of darker glasses."
"But."
Borsalino took off his glasses and wiped the lenses gently with a tissue, as if to wipe the dust off justice:
"Thanks."
"Junior."
"Your adjutant is absolutely right. You are a person who can change the navy and the world."
After a moment.
He put on his glasses again and gave Rosen a bright smile.
