บท 101: Unlocking Alaudi

Justice?

The word that made people feel at ease, but what was the truth?

Giotto admitted that there were people in the Marine who truly stood for justice, but how many of them were there?

He admitted that the Marine in this world protected many things. Be it Z, Garp, or Smoker and the others, they could explain this word.

Without the Marine, many greedy pirates would harm more people. This was unquestionable. After all, most of the pirates were villains, and only a fraction of them was kind and pursued their ideals.

But in some cases, the justice that the Marine upheld also deteriorated. In those situations, what they implemented was the justice that the World Government wanted.

For example, Ohara...

Those scholars pursued the history of the eighty-five hundred years. Giotto did not comment on whether it was correct or not, but at least the ordinary people on the island were innocent. But in order to cover up history, the World Government directly activated Buster Call to destroy the entire island. Sakazuki did not even let the people on the refuge ship go!

This kind of action, could it still be called justice?

Perhaps, the real meaning of the word justice was like what Doflamingo said, only the winner was justice, whether it was the past history or the present, it was all the same.

Therefore, for Issho's question, Giotto chose the most practical answer:

"I don't think that Vongola is righteous, but at least my Family will not hurt innocent civilians, instead we will protect the people who are worthy of our protection. I don't know if this is in line with your understanding of justice."

Giotto thought that he was not a savior or a merciful saint or Buddha. He could not save everyone, but at least he would protect the people related to him and anyone within his power.

Just like when the era of the Great Pirates began, he chose to return to Secon Island to protect his hometown.

Wasn't this more reassuring than many people who were talking about justice all day long?

Seeing that Issho still hesitated, Giotto continued, "If you can't make a decision now, why don't you come with me to the New World? Whether it is Secon Island, Green Iron Island, White Stone Island, or Wano Country, I believe you can see people's heartfelt smiles in Vongola Family's territories!

Giotto was very confident about this. In Vongola's territory, setting wealth aside, they could at least say that they lived in peace.

"I understand. Since that is the case, then I will follow you to the New World to see for myself. If what you just said is true, then I am willing to become a member of Vongola and become what you just mentioned... External Advisors, right?

After thinking for a long time, he nodded with a smile. He really wanted to see the scene that Giotto just mentioned.

Was it a smile that came from the bottom of their hearts?

He sure was looking forward to it.

"Robin-chan, come with me to the New World."

After convincing Issho, Giotto turned his gaze to Robin. "No one deserves to be lonely when they are born into this world. That's what Saul said, right? Vongola Family is my family. Everyone will protect you to pursue your dreams, be it in history or other things."

Robin did not speak. She just nodded hard. She did not know why, but a voice in her heart told her that this person in front of her could be trusted. She would not be alone.

"Even the simplest words and actions had a certain air about them if you're the one saying it. I now understand why in a few short years, Vongola Family was able to gather many skilled individuals and become a famous force in the sea. All of this is inseparable from you, the leader."

Seeing the scene in front of him, Issho could not help but sigh.

[Mission completed: Recruiting powerhouses from the native world and establish External Advisors(5/5) ]

[Reward mission: unlocked Vongola Family's Cloud Guardian, Alaudi! ]

In fact, at this time, Issho had already agreed to become a member of the Family. After all, he knew very well that Giotto would not deceive him in this kind of matter. If he deceived him, he wouldn't invite him to the New World to take a look.

Therefore, even if he had not yet gone to the New World at this time, the system had already determined that the mission had been completed.

As for this reward, it could be said to be within expectations. After all, the mission itself was to form External Advisors, and as the first Cloud Guardian, Alaudi was the founder of Vongola's External Advisor.

In addition, Alaudi was the strongest Guardian. His attacks were completely merciless, and he fought alone.

Just the word 'strongest' meant that his strength was above even that of Knuckle and Ugetsu Asari who had already joined the group!

However, how should he put it?

The so-called Cloud Guardian was a lone wolf that refused to be shackled and protected the family on his own.

Therefore, it was unrealistic to expect Alaudi to stay with the family at any time, or to be responsible for guarding a certain place. Even Giotto could not control him however he wanted.

Therefore, even on his system panel, the words "appear within three months" did not appear behind Alaudi's name. Instead, it became three big question marks.

But it was certain that when the Family was in danger, he would definitely step forward. This was unquestionable.

It seems that the ring could only be given to him when he appeared. But then again, if Alaudi didn't have the ring, his combat power would be absolutely terrible, right?

Giotto thought in his heart.

After all, Alaudi's close combat skill could be described as "abnormal". His appearance time is not fixed, which meant that he also had the opportunity to learn Color of Arms Haki and Color of Observation Haki as well as all other physical skills when he came.

He was strong enough as he was, and with Haki, his strength was simply unimaginable!

When Alaudi appeared, he would give everyone a surprise and shock the entire world!

"Let's go. We have two more people to meet before returning to the New World."

Giotto stood up. He had been out for a long time. He had sailed from the New World all the way to East Blue and then to West Blue. To be honest, he was a little homesick. He had to hurry up and find Hawkeye. Then, he could start his return journey.

Although the mission has been completed, if he could bring Hawkeye in too, then it'd naturally be the best-case scenario...
