How strange.
I have never had any interaction with that guy, why would he suddenly call me
Could it be that his acceptance of bribes from Aaron was exposed
But even then, it was the World Government who came to arrest him, and it had nothing to do with him...
Colonel Mouse thought for a long time in confusion, and finally picked up the phone and tried to pretend to be calm: "What are you doing, Mr. Brigadier General?"
"I want to ask about a little bit..."
There was a voice on the other end of the phone that seemed to have not yet woken up, and no emotion could be heard: "Have you received any calls for help from 'Housha Town' recently? They are under your jurisdiction. They seemed to have been attacked by pirates some time ago. Attacked…”
Housha Town
Colonel Mouse thought for a long time before he remembered.
It seems that someone did make a distress call to the Navy some time ago, but after hearing that it was the work of Aaron and his group, he suppressed the matter...
Those civilians...
How did you get in touch with this bald devil!
"Ah, it does seem that there is such a thing..."
Colonel Mouse kept weaving lies in his mind, and said to the other end of the phone in a hurry: "I have personally been to Housha Town... According to them, what destroyed the town was a sea of fish-men. The thieves, but my warship has been searching nearby for a long time and has not found any trace of the fishmen... "
Saitama on the other end of the phone blinked: "Ah, that's really weird."
"Actually, it's not like this has never happened before..."
Colonel Mouse rolled his eyes, and a vicious plan emerged in his mind: "Because there was a typhoon, all the houses were blown down, and they needed to pay for the reconstruction themselves, so they pretended to claim to the World Government that they had encountered pirates, and then defrauded the relief funds. ... This kind of trick has been commonplace. Do you think it will be the same this time..."
"So that's it, I know..."
After saying this, Saitama had hung up the phone.
He is now in Housha Town.
In front of him was a deserted town with corpses everywhere.
Next to him were the two fishmen who had just been captured by Saitama, and they were still cursing and shouting.
When they saw him at first, they didn't show panic expressions. Instead, they asked him very familiarly if he was the warship that came to pick up Colonel Mouse.
To be on the safe side, Saitama finally made a phone call with Colonel Mouse.
On the phone, he still lied and lied.
The facts are now clear and the evidence is conclusive.
Colonel Rat... Guilty!
"Damn navy! How dare you resist us!"
The two fish-man pirates who were tied up were still threatening Saitama wildly: "Just wait for us! There are still our cadres in the town who have not returned. When he finds out that we have been captured, you will definitely be killed by him. !”
"Oh, cadre?"
Saitama glanced at them: "Is he very powerful?"
"Humph, isn't that of course!"
The fish-man sneered: "We fish-men are born with ten times the strength of you humans! And he is the strongest swordsman on Fish-Man Island besides Leopard Zodiac! A shabby navy like you, he only needs a second We can kill them all!”
That's it...
Saitama said to the navy beside him: "You stay here and watch them. I'll go to the town to check. Maybe I can find survivors."
The navy soldiers all stood at attention: "Yes! Commodore Saitama!"
Saitama jumped from the deck to the shore, with his hands in his pockets like an old man.
"It feels a little awkward to wear that old man's clothes and perform hero activities..."
Saitama walked on the road of the town that was almost in ruins. As he walked, he shouted loudly: "Is there anyone? If there are survivors, please come out. I am the hero who rushed over after receiving the rescue news... Is anyone there?" "
The sound echoed in the empty town.
After shouting for a long time, no one came out.
indeed…
Since they were attacked by fish-man pirates, it was definitely impossible for people to stay here and not run away.
Not to mention the issue of food and drink, safety cannot be guaranteed at all.
Saitama stood in the middle of the road scratching his head: "Ah... I seem to have been stupid..."
Before he finished speaking, a small head with a face full of injuries suddenly poked out from the corner in front of him, looking cautiously towards this side.
Isn’t this someone!
Saitama happily waved to the child and said, "Hey, I'm over here, come here quickly!"
The little boy looked at Saitama carefully for a long time, then walked out, still holding a knife in his hand and asked hesitantly: "Are you... the rescue navy?"
"I was entrusted here temporarily..."
Saitama looked behind the little boy again: "What, are you alone?"
"Everyone was hiding somewhere else. I sneaked out to seek revenge from the fish-man..."
The little boy sniffed and looked at Saitama with obvious disappointment in his eyes: "Obviously the adults have explained the danger of pirates to the World Government, why only you, who looks so weak, only come here? There are no navy clothes either..."
Saitama laughed dryly: "I'm sorry for looking so weak."
"Uncle, you'd better go back quickly and call for more navy..."
The little boy's face was stubborn and determined: "Those fish-men leaders are very powerful. You definitely can't do it alone. Before the octopus man with six knives in his hand notices you..."
Saitama was startled: "What about you, won't you come with me?"
"No!"
The little boy's eyes showed deep hatred: "Those fishmen killed my father, I must personally avenge my father..."
Before he finished speaking, a blue-haired beauty with wheat-colored skin rushed over after hearing the voice.
"Children are not allowed to mess around!"
Hearing the little boy's last words, the blue-haired beauty hit the boy on the head with a knife without saying a word, squatted down and said sternly: "You will die if you go against a fishman, you should know that very clearly!"
"I... I know..."
The little boy pursed his lips and was about to cry: "But they killed my father, and I will never forgive them..."
The blue-haired beauty shook her head: "You are trying to be a hero at a young age, and you will be done with it once you die..."
…
"You're not right."
"What?"
…
"There are countless evil people in this world, and those who dare to stand up and fight against them are heroes..."
Saitama, who had been just watching and saying nothing, suddenly said: "It is a spirit, regardless of the ability... You may have good intentions, but this spirit of resisting evil cannot be lost. Everyone is looking forward to solving the problem. If a hero appears and remains indifferent, then if the hero never appears, will we just accept the situation and let others decide our life and death?"
"If one day, when you are faced with the murder of your father, you don't dare to pick up the knife to resist..."
"Then, such a person is not worthy of being protected by a hero."
Hope gradually filled the little boy's eyes, and the stars twinkled: "Brother... I understand! I won't be afraid! I must kill those fishmen with my own hands and avenge my father!!!"
"Ah, um... Actually, I don't recommend you to die..."
Saitama, who was serious just now, suddenly changed back to the salty fish look and scratched his head: "I just don't agree with her philosophy, but I agree with her approach of not letting you die... Of course you have to go by yourself before the hero appears. Protect your homeland…”
"But now the hero has arrived..."
Saitama smiled and patted the little boy on the shoulder: "Then, leave the rest to me."
