Pirates on Top of the War: I Will Stand In the Sky

  Chapter 20 Kuzan, who was led astray

   After being given extra juices by the cafeteria for several days, Ian couldn't help but secretly hinted that the uncle Navy in the cafeteria was an adult, and he didn't have any responsibilities on weekdays for the time being. Drinking too much juice is not good.

  Ion's original intention was to express that he was an adult and didn't need to send him juice every day like a child.

   Besides, he doesn't have a job on a warship on weekdays, so he's not embarrassed to enjoy this special privilege. Drinking too much juice will cause bad health and so on.

   After thinking for a moment, the uncle Navy in the cafeteria showed a sudden realization on his face. "I understand."

   Then, the navy uncle snatched the kettle from Ion's hand and stalked towards the back kitchen.

   This scene made Ion's head full of question marks.

  Is it possible... Uncle Navy thought I meant to let him be a little sneaky, don't be so open and upright?

   However, Ion didn't know it was, the navy uncle with the kettle slipped into the warehouse in the back kitchen, quietly took out the sealed wine and poured it into Ion's kettle.

   Immediately, the uncle of the navy handed the full water bottle to Ion, and said with a wink.

   "Brother Yan, this is a good thing, don't let other colleagues see it."

   For this, Ion could only helplessly thank him, and continued to walk back to his room with a seasick appearance.

   Then, Ion, who had hardly touched wine since crossing the road, subconsciously took a big sip like drinking juice.

   "This smell, why is it a little... over the top? It's a little familiar..."

  Ion, who was deeply puzzled, took another sip in order to find out.

  It wasn't until... Ian felt inexplicably fluttering, that his slightly confused brain suddenly woke up for a moment and murmured.

   "Oh, it's over, it's the feeling of alcohol..."

  It's just that Ion was completely overwhelmed at this moment, and he couldn't hold back the urge to continue drinking. Even under the drive of drunkenness, Ion sang aloud.

   "Life...Life..."

   "Life is short for a few autumns, don't give up if you don't get drunk..."

   And this song also attracted Kuzan, who was not far away, looking at Ion's somewhat rambunctious appearance, he couldn't help asking.

   "Yon, you actually drink alcohol in the daytime? The wine you got there?"

   In response, Ion, who was in a drunken state, waved his hand casually, tilted his head, and said with a smile.

   "Brother Kuzan, you don't need to pay attention to this kind of details. As the saying goes, a drunk can relieve a thousand sorrows. I'm also depressed. This feeling of complete relaxation is really great."

   "Really?" Kuzan frowned slightly and said.

   "Do you want some?" Ion invited.

   Immediately, just when Kuzan was a little moved, but hesitantly remained silent because of the military discipline he had always followed in the past, Ion pulled Kuzan who was standing at the door in, and then closed the door.

"drink!"

  Ion found a cup in the room and poured a full cup for Kuzan.

   "Forget it, the military discipline has a clear rule that you can't drink during non-break times. This is inappropriate." Kuzan hesitated, shook his head and refused.

   "What's this?"

  Ion opened his drunken eyes and persuaded him to drink.

   "Isn't Mr. Garp sleeping every day? He is still a naval hero. So, Brother Kuzan, having a few flaws will only make it easier to accept."

   Kuzan, who also rarely drinks, thought for a while, but was moved by Yon's words, frowned and drank a glass of wine directly.

   For a while, the atmosphere on the scene became a lot more harmonious and relaxed, and Kuzan asked casually.

   "Ion, I'll leave it alone, what source of trouble can you have?"

   "Ha, my troubles? It's naturally from the navy, but also from this sea, and even this era."

  Fortunately, Yon still has some sense of reason, knowing to hide some important key words, but said vaguely.

   "Don't Brother Kuzan think the navy is not pure enough? Don't you think this sea is too chaotic? Don't you think this era is simply terrible?"

   Kuzan heard the words and looked at Ion with a bit of surprise.

   In Kuzan's impression, Ion has always resisted meritorious service, thinking that he is just a kind-hearted, but extremely lack of self-motivated second generation of the army.

   "It seems, Ion, you are not as simple as you seem." Kuzan said.

   "Sure, who doesn't hide six, seven, eight or ninety hands of trump cards secretly?" Ian replied with a natural expression.

  …

   Kuzan.

   Hearing this sentence, Kuzan somehow felt that he was not a normal person.

   Immediately, Kuzan subconsciously took another gulp of wine and asked inexplicably. "Why are you hiding so many trump cards?"

   "Of course for... leather..."

  Ion tilted his head and said instead.

   "For justice, after all, everyone's justice is different. Maybe given the many restrictions and the justice of others, I can't insist on the bright side, but hiding cards allows me to fulfill my justice secretly."

   This sentence made Kuzan, who was confused and self-doubt during this time, fall into deep thought.

Yeah?

   Indeed, because everyone has different thoughts and positions, justice will naturally be different.

   Just like there is a great conflict with Sakaski's ideas, if every time I conflict with Sakaski, it is obviously inappropriate.

  Especially in the future, if there is a civil war between the admirals who are "the highest combat power of the navy", I am afraid that it will greatly affect the prestige of the navy, causing the pirates on this sea to become more and more violent and rampant.

   But what's the point of all that I stand for as a navy if I let things happen that my justice cannot tolerate?

  Ion is right, it's better than that...

"Hey……"

   At this moment, Ion shook the empty jug and said. "Brother Kuzan, go get some wine."

   Kuzan thought for a moment, his tense face seemed to be relieved a lot, and he agreed and walked towards the door.

   "By the way, don't forget to get some peanuts, kelp, etc..." Behind Kuzan, Ian shouted and reminded.

   "Got it!" Kuzan replied.

   Soon, as Kuzanzhe returned, there were several navies behind him, each holding a large jar of fine wine and a large number of various side dishes.

"I……"

  Ion, who was in a drunken state, tilted his head and muttered vaguely. "Did you take Kuzan out of the way?"
