Belial, Tregear, new members of the Straw Hat Pirates

"How many naval forces are left?" Spandam asked.

"There aren't many left."

"What about the other navy personnel?"

"To protect those ordinary people."

"What's the point of protecting them?" Spandam shouted angrily. "Get them all to arrest her! If Nico Robin gets away, you'll all be in big trouble!"

"But what about the common people..."

"How many times do I have to say it? Those civilians..."

Suddenly, Spandam paused, a wicked thought popping into his head.

"You, now, send those civilians to the front lines to take the bullets!"

"What did you say?" The Navy officer could hardly believe his ears.

"I told you to send those civilians to the front to take the bullets."

“Those are just innocent civilians,” the navy officer said. “What’s more, there are women and children among them.”

"Are you defying me?" Spandan said angrily. "I'm your superior. Execute my orders, or else..."

Sensing Spandam's anger, the Navy finally relented, "I understand..."

After the navy left, Spandam looked at his hands and muttered, "I still have to take matters into my own hands."

……

A certain passage...

Some navy personnel were escorting people away when a blond navy man stumbled over.

“You cannot go this way.”

"Why?" the sailors asked, puzzled.

The blond-haired navy officer said, "The vicious pirates have already moved to the rear to fight; you must leave."

"What, this..."

The blond-haired navy officer continued, "Hurry up, don't waste time."

The leading naval officer hesitated for a moment before saying, "Alright, let's go."

……

external……

"Torreira Shadow Strike".

"Black rope, giant tornado!"

Tregear unleashed several curved bolts of lightning, which, together with the powerful tornado released by Zoro, sent the marines in front of him flying.

“Alright, let’s hurry up and go.” Torregia looked at the terminal. “Once we’re in the forest, it won’t be so easy for them to catch us.”

"clear."

"Wait a minute." Zoro's expression suddenly turned cold. "Someone's coming." Everyone turned to look and found that it was a group of ordinary people.

"How did they get here?" Robin asked in surprise.

The civilians were stunned when they saw Torregia and the others.

"Wait, what's going on?"

"Didn't they say the pirates were on the other side?"

Just as everyone was puzzled, Tregear's mind raced, his eyes filled with shock. He looked at the Navy Headquarters not far away and said, "That bastard!"

Before the words were even finished, a series of artillery shells rang out. Countless shells flew towards them.

Just then, Zoro suddenly rushed out, brandishing his sword and shouting, "Black Rope, Great Tornado!"

The powerful sword pressure generated a tornado-like airflow, which swept the cannonballs together and then smashed them.

Zoro shouted impatiently at the group, "Are you all trying to get yourselves killed? What are you doing here causing trouble?"

A woman said, "Someone told us that you were fighting in the back, so we came here."

"What are you talking about?" Robin asked, puzzled. "Didn't we say we were at the door?"

"But……"

“It’s not their fault,” Torregia said. “It was some bastard who did it.”

……

"What are you doing? Continue the attack!" Spandam shouted.

A navy officer hesitated and said, "But, those people..."

"Who are those people and what do they have to do with us? What else could they be but pirates? Keep attacking!" Spandam shouted.

"Yes."

"Also, send the rest of the men to surround and capture them, immediately!"

"Yes."

Most of the navy received orders to head towards Toregia and the others.

"shooting!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Seeing this, Torregia stepped forward and deployed his protective shield, blocking all the bullets. The people behind him were terrified, clinging to each other and screaming.

A little boy cried out in alarm, "Dad!"

The shout stunned one of the sailors. The man looked closely and realized that the little boy and woman were his own child and wife.

"Wait, Captain, those are my wife and children."

"What did you say?"

“My wife and children are there too.”

"mine too."

Why were they there?

Upon seeing this, the navy immediately ceased their attack and stood there, bewildered.

Just then, Spandam, his face grim, arrived with a large army. "What are you doing? Why aren't you attacking?"

"They are our family!"

"I don't care who they are, attack immediately!"

Seeing this, Torregia smiled slightly, "That makes things easier."

No one noticed the red glint that flashed in Toregia's eyes.

"If those vicious pirates escape, can you bear the responsibility?"

"But……"

Just as the navy was hesitating, a voice echoed in their minds:

"That's right, let's listen to the officer. You're the righteous navy, you can't let pirates get away with this."

"Who are you?" the sailors asked in terror.

"Don't worry about who I am. Just kill all the civilians too. It doesn't matter. Justice requires sacrifice."

"It doesn't matter who is sacrificed, as long as justice is served, isn't that enough?"

"Don't worry about killing people. Killing in the name of justice is just as righteous as killing pirates."

The eerie voice enveloped the sailors' hearts like an abyss.

"father!"

"husband."

"elder brother."

The sailors looked up and saw their families standing in front of them, waving.

Suddenly, Spandam appeared in front of them, shouting, "Fire!"

"No!"

The sailors rushed to the Straw Hat crew, spreading their arms to block them, shouting, "No! Sir, you can't do this!"

"Are you guys against me?" Spandam questioned.

"We cannot stand by and watch our family members get hurt."

"What family? As long as we eliminate those pirates, what does it matter if these useless guys die!"

Spandam's words were like a bomb, shaking the hearts of the navy.

Their minds were filled with memories of saying goodbye to their families when they joined the army, taking their oath on the parade ground, and silently cheering themselves on in quiet, deserted places.

The hard work and dedication during the mission, and the determination to persevere to this day.

Everything collapsed at that moment.

Zoro couldn't help but say, "It's really ugly."

Robin said, "A hideous face."

"You dare to insult me?" Spandam shouted at the navy personnel beside him, "What are you all standing there for? Keep attacking!"

"And you, don't even think about running away!"

After saying that, Spandam pursed his lips, a pair of black wings grew from his back, his fingernails turned into sharp points, and his legs turned into bird legs.

Then, Spandam transformed into a bird-man with black wings.

"Today, you will all die here!"
