Chapter 97: "Customer" planned to be sent to Impel Down!
Sharon Lawrence's head fell into the sea, dyeing the water red.
The midday sun shines on the sea, and the crimson sea is covered by the sparkling reflected light.
On the deck, everyone stared at Tsugakuin Yoshiichi with wide eyes. Kuzan's face was filled with astonishment, and even with sunglasses on, he couldn't hide his shock. Kuzan hadn't expected Tsugakuin Yoshiichi to be so decisive this time, directly beheading Sharon Lawrence.
At the bow, Sharon Lily covered her mouth in horror, looking at the headless body slowly falling beside Kuzan, her body trembling slightly, tears streaming down her face.
"Father!!"
After a while, Sharon Lily screamed in pain and rushed towards Sharon Lawrence's body. The sad Sharon Lily staggered and fell directly on the deck when she was about to reach Sharon Lawrence.
However, Sharon Lily seemed to feel no pain at all. She leaned her knees on the deck, took two steps forward, and then fell directly on Sharon Lawrence's body.
"Father!!" Another cry of pain. Sharon Lily knew that her father was completely dead at this time, but her heart-wrenching cry seemed to want to wake Sharon Lawrence from death.
No one answered
Sharon Lawrence's body was rapidly becoming cold in such a winter. Sharon Lily stretched out her trembling hand, wanting to touch Sharon Lawrence's cheek, but in mid-air, Sharon Lily's hand stopped.
Looking at Sharon Lawrence's empty neck, Sharon Lily could no longer suppress the sadness and anger in her heart. She turned her head suddenly and glared at Yuichiro Tsugikuni, her beautiful face full of hatred.
"How dare you!!"
“I’m going to kill you!!!”
Sharon Lily roared, turned her head, and saw the sword on the waist of a Sharon Kingdom guard. She immediately stood up and rushed over, pulled out the other's sword, and rushed towards Jiguo Yuanyi.
Facing Sharon Lily's attack, Ji Guoyuan just glanced at her lightly, gently waved the long knife in his hand, and was about to put the knife back into the sheath with his backhand. He had no intention of fighting back at all.
After a while, Sharon Lily rushed to the front of Tsugakuni Yoshiichi, holding the long knife tightly in both hands, and slashed at Tsugakuni Yoshiichi fiercely.
Just as the blade was about to fall on Yoriichi Tsugikuni, the knife in Sharon Lily's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Kuzan's figure had already appeared in front of Yuichiro Tsugikuni and beside Sharon Lily at some point. He stretched out a hand and grabbed Sharon Lily's wrists that were holding the knife.
Feeling the resistance on her wrist, Sharon Lily turned her head angrily and saw Kuzan beside her, saying furiously:
"Marine! Are you going to kill me too?!"
Looking at Sharon Lily's ferocious face, Kuzan's heart ached, but he tightened his grip on Sharon Lily's hand, without answering or letting go.
"Miss Lily."
"Kuzan is here to save you."
Ji Guoyuan glanced at Sharon Lily coldly, then turned his head to look at the body of Sharon Lawrence not far away, and continued:
"Sharon Lawrence may have had reasons for what she did, or she may have been forced into it, but no matter what, I will never let her go."
"Because he killed the navy members of the branch, and I am also a navy member!"
"I know, maybe in your heart, all the navy members deserve to die."
“But in my heart, it’s not like that.”
"Maybe some of the navy deserved to die, but at least not all of them deserved to die."
"For the time being, the navy is indispensable on this ocean."
"You will bear the sins of these people on your own."
"And the sins of the Celestial Dragons"
"I'll punish you."
By the end of his speech, Tsugikuni Yoriichi's voice was almost inaudible.
It was not until now that the guards of the Sharon Kingdom on the deck realized what had happened. Seeing their king dead, each of these guards glared at Ji Guoyuan.
"Damn the navy! They actually killed His Majesty!"
"We will never let you go!"
"kill!!!"
On the deck, there was a loud shout of killing. The guards rushed towards Jigoku Yoshiichi with sharp blades in hand. Jigoku Yoshiichi saw this and just raised the long sword in his hand, but Kuzan directly blocked Jigoku Yoshiichi in front of him, and a slightly hoarse voice was heard by Yoshiichi:
"ICE WORLD!"
In an instant, the deck was covered with a thin layer of ice, and this layer of ice quickly extended towards the guards. Soon, the thin ice spread to the soles of the guards' feet, and quickly climbed up their bodies along their feet.
The next second, the deck became quiet. Kuzan lowered his head slightly, turned his back to the guards, and used the power of the ice fruit to freeze them into ice sculptures.
"Let's leave it at that."
"Lock all these people in Impel Down!"
Kuzan's hoarse voice came from his throat. Sharon Lily turned her head to look at Kuzan, then looked back at the guards who were frozen into ice sculptures, and then looked back at Tsugikoku Yoriichi who was standing in front of her with an indifferent expression. She roared in grievance and helplessness:
"ah!!!"
“Ahhhhhhhhh!!!”
The desperate cries pierced the sky, making the warm winter sun lose its warmth.
The pain and screams she was screaming at the top of her lungs quickly drained Sharon Lily's strength and she passed out. Kuzan quickly supported Sharon Lily and said to Jiguo Yuanyi, "I'll leave this place to you."
Then he quickly helped Sharon Lily into the cabin.
Shortly after Kuzan left, the power of the Ice Fruit was released, and the guards on the deck were frozen unconscious and fell on the deck.
Jiguo Yuanyi took a deep look at Kuzan's departing back and gave orders to the marines on the deck:
"Lock up all these people and go to the port of Dongwu Island to dock and repair the ship."
"Notify headquarters of what happened here and have them send someone to investigate the situation on Dongwu Island. They will then be sent to push the city forward."
At this point, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi hesitated, glanced at Dongwu Island in the distance, and changed his tone: "Forget it, I'll notify the headquarters myself."
"Let's go to the Dongwu Island port to rest first. I will report other matters to the headquarters."
After receiving the order from Yuichiro Tsugakuni, the marines on the deck excitedly saluted Yuichiro Tsugakuni and then quickly carried out Yuichiro Tsugakuni's order.
How can these ordinary Marines be said to be wavering or unwavering?
For them, they only knew that Sharon Lawrence came to kill them, and Colonel Tsugikoku Yoshiichi directly killed the enemy's leader and protected them.
They also heard a little about what happened in the Sharon Kingdom, but that was all. From their perspective, these people were just thieves who attacked and killed the Navy branch.
Killing or arresting has no meaning to these grassroots navy officers. All they have to do is follow orders.
Soon, the unconscious Sharon Kingdom guards on the deck were imprisoned one by one in the warship's prison. Only two large holes remained on the wall and deck, as well as the knife marks that Tsugumi Yoriichi had just cut.
The navy's warships slowly advanced towards Dongwu Island.
