Is Sengoku a [brainless] puppet for the Government?

[Fantastische Hure]

Yes. Yes, he is.

 

[Warmmedown]

Square brackets why

 

[Fantastische Hure]

It’s not the exact word that you’d use, but some-thing like it. I just don’t want to say the exact word, so you can’t make fun of me like that recent time on the dubbing thread.

 

[Future Warrior]

Yes. Yes, he is.

I thought you didn’t read past Skypeia.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

The opportunity presented itself recently & I watched then. Even from the beginning again, didn’t even finish Skypiea until like April or May. It’s going at its own pace & I’m keeping-up. Even-though technological problems are kind-of messing it up, so I had to resort to another route for now to keep-up.

 

[Yoshi]

He has less humanity than someone like Garp.

 

[SSJ2]

He's kind of like Kizaru. He probably realizes that a lot of what the Marines do is wrong, but he still follows orders.

 

[Future Warrior]

That's why I find it odd that he has Conquerors Haki.

 

[Warmmedown]

He believes in protecting la gente del mundo. The best way he feels is to be a good marine. Without the marines he believes it would be anarchy and pirates would gain even more power to harm people. As top marine, he can make sure the marines do the best job possible of enabling the peaceful thriving of humankind, in between doing some dodgy stuff. It's tried and tested, while the alternative isn't. He's not like Dragon, who believes in taking a risk and trying another way.

I was gonna say something else, but I forgot.

 

[Warmmedown]

Oh yeh
If you're a marine and you're given orders to help enslave fishmen and kill historians and you disagree with it, is it better to quit or is it better to stay in the job? If you quit they may hire someone who agrees with the cause or has less conscience against it, who will do the job better and cause more harm to others (eg enslave and beat fishmen without mercy, kill Robin etc). If you stay in the job, you'll sully your hands, besmirch your reputation and emotionally harm yourself committing acts that go against your morals, but you may be able to find small ways to make the situation not as bad for the victims, such as purposely being lazy at times, overlooking so-called transgressions of slaves, or letting Robin get away.


I mean idk that Sengoku is thinking this, just reminded me of it.
