Chapter 265 Defection

West Sea, Naval Branch.

Sauro, who was escorting Olivia and ten other archaeologists, met an unexpected person.

"Marshal Zhan Guo, why are you here?"

As the new admiral of the navy, almost all the navy knew about Zhan Guo's reputation, which was why Sauro was surprised.

You have to know that when the admirals of the navy take action, they are facing big pirates, and when the marshals of the navy take action, they are facing masters at the level of the emperor of the sea.

"O'Hara's evil historians are attempting to overthrow the world. The World Government has issued a demon-slaying order against O'Hara. You are one of the five lieutenant generals tasked with carrying out this order."

"Demon Slayer Order!"

Sauro opened his mouth wide; this news had a great impact on him.

"But Marshal, they are just a group of scholars! Aren't our navy's enemies pirates? Why would we use the Demon Slayer Order against a group of powerless scholars?

They are just scholars who are curious about history. How can they possibly overturn the world? Are they doing something wrong? "

The Demon Slaying Order is the highest-level action of the Navy. After it is used, the island can be described as barren.

"Sauro, this is something that the World Government has expressly prohibited. Since they have chosen this path, they should be aware of it."

"But haven't we only been arresting them for so many years? Even if they violated the laws of the World Government, it's not a crime punishable by death!"

Sauro's words were full of confusion, and he needed Zhan Guo to explain to him, but Zhan Guo didn't want to say anything more.

"That's enough, Sauro. This is an order from the World Government. You just have to follow it. This is an order!"

Zhan Guo said this as he fed the documents in his hand to the goat beside him, and his intention to drive people away was very obvious.

Sauro opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhan Guo's serious face, he finally chose to leave.

When Sauro walked out of the Navy branch, he felt like a huge rock was pressing on him. He wanted to go out for a walk, but he happened to see five stretchers.

Under the white cloth were five scholars who had died in the artillery fire. A few hours ago, they were still discussing their life with their families after returning home, but now they were separated by the Yin and Yang.

"Lieutenant General Sauro!"

The sailor carrying the stretcher saluted Sauro.

Sauro nodded, looked at the white cloth that symbolized death, and carefully lifted a corner of it.

Under the white cloth was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. Half of his face was covered in blood, but there was no trace of ferocity on his face. Instead, he exuded a gentleness.

The sunlight shone on the pocket watch on the man's chest, and the reflected light stung Sauro's eyes.

Sauro squatted down and carefully opened the pocket watch on the man's chest.

She was a little girl with short black hair. She looked only eight or nine years old, and her sweet smile was so endearing.

Sauro was stunned for a while, and his conscience was tormenting him repeatedly.

The navy soldiers did not disturb him. The world seemed to be quiet at this moment, like a photo in his hand frozen in a moment.

After an unknown amount of time, Sauro closed the pocket watch in his hand and spoke in an almost inaudible voice.

"sorry."

"Lieutenant General Sauro, what did you say?"

"Bury them properly."

After leaving the last words, Sauro walked outside.

………………

"Lieutenant General Sauro!"

The guard at the prison door saluted the giant lieutenant general who suddenly arrived.

"The Warring States General asked me to torture these historians."

The guarding navy naturally would not stop a vice admiral and immediately let Sauro pass.

Perhaps because Olivia and the others were too weak, the navy detained all ten of them together.

Hearing the footsteps, Olivia in the cell raised her head, her gray face full of fatigue.

"What are you here for?"

Sauro sat in front of the cell, blocking the view inside.

"Come to save you."

Olivia was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand why the giant captured them and then let them go.

"The World Government has ordered the use of the Demon Slayer Order against O'Hara in ten days."

Olivia's pupils shrank sharply, and she was shocked by the sudden news.

But before she could speak, Sauro continued.

“I don’t know what is right or wrong, but I feel like I should do something.

Five people have already died because of my mistakes, and if I hadn't done anything, another 500, 5,000 people would have died."

Sauro finished speaking to himself and looked up at the people in the prison.

"I'm going to help you break out of prison."

………………

At night, when the navy was delivering food to the prisoners in the prison, shocking news came out.

"Marshal Zhan Guo, something terrible has happened! Lieutenant General Sauro has defected, and he's let all the archaeologists in prison escape!"

"What! With so many people, he took them away like this! Didn't anyone see it?"

Zhan Guo was shocked for a moment, and then he became extremely annoyed.

He was already unhappy doing this kind of dirty work, and now he encountered something like this at the critical moment.

"Lieutenant General Sauro hid the man inside his clothes, and the guards didn't notice."

As a giant, Sauro's clothes were originally loose, and this time he changed into clothes with many pockets to break into the prison, so that the guards didn't even notice it.

Zhan Guo's expression changed again and again, and finally he could only give the order helplessly.

"Send people to arrest Sauro..."

"No matter life or death!"

He didn't care about Sauro's defection, nor did he care about the ten historians. What he cared about was the leakage of the Demon Killing Order.

You know, Zel and the others are still in the West Sea.

If Zel knew that the Navy was going to use the Demon Slayer Order against O'Hara, Zhan Guo would never believe that they would do anything.

After all, Zell is notoriously nosy. Basically, every time he goes to a country, he has to clean up the country's garbage.

Of course, all of the above were done by Rorschach and his men, but in Zhan Guo's opinion, it was definitely Zell who ordered it.

………………

"Escaped, hehehe..."

On a beach, Sauro collapsed exhausted, surrounded by ten O'Hara historians.

"That's all I can do. You have to walk the rest of the way on your own. Let's say goodbye now."

Sauro, lying on the ground, stared blankly at the stars in the sky, his tone relaxed.

"So what are you going to do? Can you still go back to the Navy?"

Looking at the kind giant in front of her, Olivia couldn't help but worry about his future.

"Me? I won't go back. I want to visit my hometown. Hehehe..."

It seemed that his conscience was redeemed. After leaving with Olivia and the others, Sauro felt much happier.

"In that case, then, take care!"

Olivia didn't act pretentiously and left with the remaining nine people. Her hometown was facing a life-and-death crisis and she needed to rush back.
