"I say, don't just stand there, you should say something."
Ross put down the knife and fork, took a sip from the teacup next to him and looked at Tashigi, who had not spoken until now.
Tashigi forcibly calmed her mind and finally withdrew from that trembling state, her fingers clenched the hilt of her sword and said:
"That kind of question … has nothing to do with me!"
"You are Ghost Hand Ross! Even if you are the strongest in the world … I will arrest you! "
As if she had exhausted her courage, after shouting this sentence, Tashigi swung her sword at Ross and even closed her eyes as she slashed.
The sword fell.
She didn't feel that her sword had cut anything.
She opened her eyes again in shock, but saw that Ross was still sitting there eating, and there was no other movement.
"This is … what's going on …"
Even if she didn't cut Ross, she should have cut the table. Why didn't her sword cut anything?!
Tashigi looked at the sword in her hand and couldn't help but be in a trance.
"Arrest me?"
Ross forked a carrot and put it in his mouth and said, "That's a very difficult thing, more difficult than becoming the world's first swordsman."
When Tashigi heard Ross's words, her trance eyes suddenly condensed, and it seemed that she had regained some faith and fighting spirit, and she shouted and waved her sword again.
Sneer!
The sword passed through Ross and the table.
It was exactly the same picture as before, as if the Ross in front of her was just a phantom, and the blade could not cut anything at all.
Tashigi's face was incredulous as she waved her sword frantically, but she couldn't even cut the corner of the table. The blade passed through everything as if it was an illusion.
"I say, why do you want to arrest me so much? Just because you are a Marine? "Ross sat there motionless and asked casually.
Tashigi gasped violently, not because of physical exhaustion, but because of shock, disbelief, and other emotions in the face of Ross's unknown power.
When she heard Ross's question, she could not help but grit her teeth and respond, "I am a Marine, of course, I have to arrest all pirates …"
"Oh."
Ross responded lightly and said, "What is the definition of Marine and Pirate? Hanging a skull flag makes you a pirate? Those who don't hang a flag but burn and loot everywhere, are they not pirates? "
Tashigi had never debated with anyone about her position, or rather, she was just a little Marine sergeant, and could not reach the point of considering such issues.
What is the navy?
This kind of problem is understood by those Marine Admirals. Marines below the Admiral don't need to think so much, they just need to obey orders.
Ross's words made her fall into a little confusion, and the chaotic thoughts in her mind surged, and she couldn't help but say: "Of course, the flag is not the key."
"Oh."
Ross responded again, put the last piece of meat in his mouth, picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, saying, "Then you hang the Marine flag, maintain tenryubito's rights and interests, and loot 'Heavenly Gold' all over the world, what is it?"
Tashigi was stunned.
This sentence could be said to have pierced her heart. In an instant, her so-called justice, which was not so firm to begin with, was torn into pieces.
Yes, the flag is not the key, burning and looting is the key. Marine protects tenryubito and forcibly collects the Heavenly Gold all over the world. Countries that do not pay the Heavenly Gold will be punished. What is the difference between this and pirates?
At this moment, Tashigi only felt a trance.
Clang!
The blade in her hand could no longer be held and it fell to the ground.
She had long been prepared to die rather than surrender. Even if she had to die in battle, she would never retreat. However, when she realized that everything she had been holding onto was meaningless, the fighting spirit and determination in her heart melted like snow, no longer existing.
She stumbled and fell to the ground, her eyes blurred and trance, and various voices kept ringing in her mind.
"…"
Ross put down his handkerchief and stood up, glancing at Tashigi.
Bang!
At this moment, the wall on his left side suddenly exploded.
Countless gravel splashed around, and Smoker flew upside down and crashed into the store, his back hitting the wall on the right side.
Smoker's strength is very good. The rank of Marine Captain is too low for him, but he is not as good as those Elite Headquarters Vice-Admirals.
And even those Elite Headquarters Vice-Admirals may not be able to beat the current Robin.
Which cadre of the Yonkō (Four Emperors) Pirates is weak?
"Tashigi!"
Smoker, whose back hit the wall, spilled a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth. After he stabilized his body, he saw Tashigi lying on the ground.
However, he shouted at Tashigi, but Tashigi did not respond at all. She was still sitting on the ground with blank eyes.
At this time.
Smoker finally noticed Ross and his face changed dramatically.
"You are … Ghost Hand Ross!"
Ross didn't respond and just stood there calmly.
Smoker glanced at Ross and then at Tashigi, whose eyes were blank. He couldn't help but grit his teeth and asked, "What did you do to Tashigi?!"
Ross said casually, "Nothing, I just wanted to talk to a Marine. I thought she was kind, so I just talked to her."
"You … …"
Smoker gritted his teeth and wanted to attack, but he forcibly stopped himself.
No matter how arrogant he is, he is very clear about the gap between himself and Ross, which is an insurmountable gap, not to mention that he can't even deal with Robin next to him.
"Let's go."
Ross looked at Robin, who came in.
Robin didn't look at Smoker either, but glanced at Tashigi, whose eyes were blank, and then looked at Ross.
Ross said with a strange look on his face, "What are you looking at me for?"
Robin showed a thoughtful look and followed Ross out of the shop.
Smoker watched Robin and Ross leave and clenched his fists, but he still did not dare to do anything. As for the Marines that gathered outside, none of them dared to come forward and they just watched Ross and Robin leave.
"Tashigi, how are you?"
After Ross and Robin left, Smoker took a deep breath and looked at Tashigi sitting on the ground again and asked Tashigi.
Tashigi gradually recovered from her state of absent-mindedness. She was silent for a moment, picked up the fallen sword, put it in the scabbard, and then stood up and said:
"I'm fine, Mr. Smoker."
"That's good."
Smoker breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Ross was still disdainful of Tashigi.
Tashigi lowered her head and was silent for a while, and said, "I'm a little tired, Mr. Smoker, can I go back and rest early?"
"You go ahead."
Smoker looked at Tashigi and saw that she seemed to be hit and said, "That guy is Ghost Hand Ross. He is not someone you can deal with now. It's normal to suffer losses in his hands. You are lucky to be able to keep your life."
"Ok."
Tashigi nodded, looking absent-minded.
Smoker could only shake his head slightly when he saw this. He thought that Tashigi was defeated by Ross in a few moves and was hit hard, so he didn't care.
