Everyone was silent.

The bottomless silence.

Yes,

Not only the working Marines present, but also the countless civilians living on Marineford who watched this graduation ceremony through the videophone worm screen, all sighed sadly.

Red eyes.

What they lost,

But the most important relatives!

Those soldiers who died in battle,

Marineford’s cemetery can’t fit!

There are countless soldiers sleeping in unknown corners of the world,

I couldn't even bring back the complete bones,

The last they greeted,

It's just a military banner.

"do you know?"

Roy, who had originally lowered his head, slowly raised his head, and his eye sockets had become moist.

"As I left the cemetery, the little girl asked me a question."

"Big brother, did Dad go to a very far and happy place?"

"That's what she asked."

"I looked at her big, bright eyes, and I couldn't say anything for a while."

""It must be", that's how I answered."

"Then she smiled and said this to me."

""──The big brother, when I grow up, I will become a great Marine! ""

Roy smiled.

"I believe in her. I believe in her more than anyone else. I can definitely become a great Marine."

"The reality is really cruel."

"Someone will die in battle,"

"Someone will be disabled,"

"Someone will lose the love of their lives,"

"Some people will be displaced."

"But there is always some will and some beliefs that will be passed down forever."

"That little girl may not be a genius, but this does not prevent her from having her own dreams."

"We will fail, we will fall, but with regard to the lives of all of us, neither you nor I are readers, but authors."

"At least this ending, you can still have the final say."

"──It's like Tortim Vice Admiral."

"He has practiced his own way, shouldered the belief of his dreams, and passed this spirit to the next generation perfectly and well."

"The same is true of the education we received in the military academy."

"Really great education,"

"The most important thing we learned in the military academy,"

"Not Marine Six Styles,"

"Not a combat experience,"

"It's not about world geography or military strategy..."

"These are indeed very important,"

"But it is far less important than the belief and will we have learned here."

"Go hard, my comrades in arms."

"You are not bad, you are just too eager to achieve success."

"Just after reading a few pages, I began to wonder whether reading is useful at all;"

"If I insisted on training for less than a few days, I complained that I was too bitter, too tired, I didn't improve my strength and planned to give up;"

"We graduated, and we should understand,"

"There is no shortcut that can make you do it overnight."

"No matter whether it is smooth or rough in life,"

"All will contribute to your growth,"

"Do anything, be steadfast, do one thing is one thing;"

"Everything you want will eventually come as expected."

"Don't complain, but act."

Roy slowly raised his head.

Keep your head tall,

The voice gradually became agitated and high-pitched,

Like a silver screen blasting a sharp ship to break the ice,

"If you think your hometown is not good, then build it;"

"If you think Marine is not good, you should try to change it;"

"If you feel that people in this world are already terrible, then be a gentle and responsible person."

"If you think that the society is too dark and the army is corrupt, then you should eliminate it and change the status quo!"

"Instead of blindly complaining about how unfair the world is and how powerless I am."

"As Marine, where you stand is the territory of justice."

"Just as you are, justice is what the world is like."

Roy clenched his fists and held them up high.

"May all the Marine youths can go up without listening to the words of despondents and others."

"Do things that can do things, make a sound that can be vocal."

"There is a bit of heat, a bit of light, like a firefly, a bit of light in the dark, no need to wait for the torch."

When the voice fell, everyone was instantly moved, and their hearts were shaken.

All the Marines who watched this scene screamed wildly in their hearts and clenched their fists.

Garp and Zephyr gasped with crimson eyes.

Marshal Sora and Vice Admiral glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock and smile in each other's eyes.

Then──

Roy slammed a fist into the void, just feeling a dull breath in his chest, wanting to pour out all of it, not spit out! !

Boom! !

The light blue air waves are rushing like flowing water, winding and sweeping like a waterfall, majestic and overbearing.

He said the last sentence in this speech,

A word that shocked the whole world's righteous power!

"If there is no torch from now on, I will be the only light!"

next moment,

The mighty momentum,

It broke out from the unyielding young man who stood upright like a battle flag,

at the same time,

The entire Naval Headquarters Marineford,

Thousands of seagulls battle flags soared into the sky, whistling for glory.

Conqueror's Haki, awaken! !
