Chapter 108
"Oh, time really flies by. It's such a pity that you have to leave now."
Mr. Mayor pretended to speak carelessly, but deep down in his heart, he wished they could go to the South China Sea Federation the next day, work earlier, and make money earlier.
Chapter 232 Ninja Wants Revolution
The journey back was still uneasy, with endless pirates appearing one after another.
Franky and the others were eye-opening when they encountered such a scene for the first time. It turned out that the sea was like this, with constant fighting. In just a few days of traveling, they encountered more than one group of pirates.
"Don't worry, the World Government's plan to recruit the Shichibukai has been aroused recently. There are always some stupid guys wandering around without thinking about whether they are strong enough. Just leave it to Tezog and the others."
Noah casually comforted everyone who was away from the Capital of Seven Waters for the first time.
In fact, Franky wasn't worried at all, and was even a little eager to try. It was so exciting. He only saw the diplomat beating the pirates crazily with his fists as big as sandbags and kicking them like balls. The girl who had always been silent was holding a sword to touch up all the pirates lying on the ground with very skillful techniques.
After killing everyone, the two of them carefully searched for all the money on the ship, even the gold teeth, and finally blew up the pirate ship.
After this set of smooth operations, the judgment is clear. What is professionalism? Tactical fallback.
Terzog and Kuina, carrying the large package, returned to the Voyager to report to Noah.
"The total is less than 1 million beli. This has happened to several pirate ships. It seems that the employment prospects of the pirate profession are really not good. The per capita income of the bottom class is not even 50,000 beli. It is not stable yet.
Moreover, the room for promotion is very small. If you are exhausted, you will be a small captain, and you will face great competitive pressure.
The most important thing is that the pressure for survival will become greater and greater under the pressure of the navy and the Shichibukai. If the sea had not become more distorted, such a deformed product would not have been born at all. "
Terzog discussed various issues about the pirate profession with Kuina in a serious manner.
Noah, who heard this, also interjected.
"What you think is not comprehensive. One thing is that the entry threshold for pirates is very low. Even a normal person can hold a knife and become a pirate. When I traveled around the world in the past, some pirates who had just gone to sea were even There were no knives, and many people still used forks and wooden sticks.
Secondly, the lower limit of pirates is low, but the upper limit is not low. There are also many dragons and snakes in the grass. Never underestimate it. It is difficult to change your domineering aptitude and physical talent, but there are still devil fruits in the sea. If you give it a try, you will be able to reach the sky.
Also, many of the reasons for the great pressure to survive are caused by our revolutionary army. Every major Margio incident in the past few years has been a purge of the industry.
Finally, when life is difficult, pirates are the only way to survive. "
When everyone thought about it, this was the truth. If there is a better life, there are still only a few people who are willing to go to the sea to make a living.
"Then we will continue to vigorously attack pirates?"
"Of course, the first step for most pirates to go to sea is to abandon their conscience and attack the weak. They don't have the courage to attack the strong, such as those who force them to survive.
We just want to fight against such guys and restore stability to the sea. To a certain extent, our routes overlap with those of the navy.
It's just that we are fighting the World Government and the pirates together. "
Listening to Noah's explanation, Tom also became a little interested. Originally, it was just an accident that he was too involved with the revolutionary army. Now that he is going to his hometown, it doesn't hurt to ask.
"Then what would you do if Roger was still in this world?"
In Tom's eyes, Roger is the most respectable sea man he has ever seen.
"If he goes into seclusion, I won't care about him. If he still roams the sea as the pirate king, he will definitely be arrested. The profession of pirate is wrong, and the king of pirates does not need to exist. Don't forget His reputation as the Pirate King does not come from doing good deeds.”
Tom shut up, this guy is really like what the world government said, the enemy of the world. Everyone is his enemy.
Franky's reaction was that he thought Noah was too cool, and that young people challenge authority to make themselves stand out. What is authority? One Piece and the World Government are authorities.
Even Bingshan is still a young man at this time. Although he looks stable on the outside, he is also very restless on the inside. In the original work, he truly calmed down after experiencing Tom's death.
Seeing Franky and Bingshan chatting around Noah, Tom felt a little sad. Although a man on the sea should pursue his own career without hesitation, joining the revolutionary army is really not a good option. Making enemies on all sides and overthrowing the world will cost your life.
But what can be done? What Noah did cannot be considered wrong, or even very correct. He was just walking on a road full of thorns.
Along the way, Noah didn't take any action, just telling stories to the young people. In his opinion, Franky and Bingshan in front of him were the future leaders in the revolutionary army's technology and military industry. It is very important to reshape their outlook on life at this time.
To convey anger to young people, relying on reasoning is not enough, it is boring and boring. It would be too embarrassing for a great writer to forcefully explain things to them.
The truth must be integrated into the story, and the subtle influence will be effective. As it happens, there are many stories about Noah. As it happens, he is very good at magic modification.
A few years ago, Noah once told them the story of Prince Naruto. He only told the first episode and left a deep impression on them. Now, since they want to hear it, they can continue to listen to Noah. Specially made, brand new version of the story of Ninja's revolution.
In the story, Naruto is either a prince or a commoner with a grassroots background. The demon fox was sealed in his body just by chance. Children from other big families were unwilling to sacrifice, so they had to seal the demon fox in his powerless baby. in the body.
Naruto, who accidentally learned the truth due to Mizuki's rebellion, did not betray his village. Instead, he continued to learn and progress, contribute to the village, and hoped to be recognized by everyone with his enthusiasm.
But while gaining superficial recognition, he was still monitored and vigilant by the village's senior leaders. After countless oppressions, Naruto finally couldn't bear it anymore and started a revolution in the ninja world.
In the story, Naruto also met several like-minded friends. There is the tsundere Sasuke who betrays his family in order to break the theory of blood. There is Sakura, a girl born as a commoner but extremely talented. They traveled together in the ninja world and defeated powerful enemies one after another.
He also received help from the seniors in the ninja world, including the great scientist Orochimaru who was both his teacher and friend, the ancient hero-like teacher Jiraiya, and his big sister Tsunade Hime who was in great shape.
With the help of uniting many insightful people in the ninja world who could not tolerate traditional rule, the decadent ninja world was finally broken.
Chapter 233 If I didn’t have these experiences
"Finally, Naruto became the first president of the Ninja Federation, ending the centuries-long disputes between various countries and bringing a perfect end to the world."
Wow~~~
Franky and Bingshan both had stars in their eyes, this Naruto was the person they aspired to be. I have gone through so many ups and downs since I was a child, but I still didn't give up hope. I made so many friends while growing up, and finally succeeded. It's so touching.
Franky, who has always been very unrestrained in emotional control, cried several times. Some plots are really tear-jerking.
For example, during the war, in order to fight against the big villain summoned by the top leaders of various countries, Teacher Nongmei sacrificed himself and severely damaged the villain for the victory of the revolution. And left a sentence, a genius who works hard does not leave the world after a flash in the pan.
In the end, there were all kinds of sacrifice plots, and even the little brother Bingshan shed tears.
Although Tom thinks this story is weird, because every world is undergoing a revolution, but from a storytelling perspective, it is indeed very interesting. The spirit inside is also positive.
Noah also breathed a sigh of relief. He has been constantly changing the plot these days. As he talked, he forgot about the previous settings. He quickly recalled it before talking about it. It was too difficult.
In fact, later on, he made reference to the plots of Sailor Moon and Iron Warrior, using sacrifices in exchange for victory, which slightly made it clear that victory is forged with the blood of everyone. Even Naruto narrowly escaped death many times. . This ending is more realistic.
It just so happens that Nanhai has arrived, so let’s end it quickly. I really can’t go on talking anymore. You can't talk about Naruto's son~ That would be a stretch.
While telling the story, Noah himself thought for a moment. It was a good thing that he did not travel to the world of Naruto. The survival crisis there was more dangerous than the world of One Piece, and the cost of gaining power was higher.
When he traveled to the world of One Piece, he didn't want to make a revolution at first. What he wanted more was to succeed in cultivation, travel across the sea, and explore what the great secret treasure was.
It was also forced by the current situation, but as soon as he came to this world, he was involved in the darkest side of the world. It happened that after O'Hara was redeemed, he awakened his true power and brought red thoughts to the sea.
If his first stop in this world was Windmill Village or another peaceful village, he wouldn't have set foot on this road. It's fate.
After entering the South China Sea, Tom clearly felt that the environment here was much better than that of the Grand Line, not in terms of the natural environment, but in terms of the security environment. There are basically no pirates left. I occasionally see a few pirate ships running for their lives. I don’t know why.
Noah gave a clear answer to this question. Pirates are now in the South China Sea and are a relatively scarce resource. Building the South China Sea Federation requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
Material resources can be bought with money, but manpower is difficult to deal with. Ordinary families now don’t have enough staff. Because the South China Sea Federation is popularizing education, all minors rush to school to study. It is good to be able to help the family with simple tasks when they have time.
Before that, many countries were still in the traditional farming era, and industry and commerce were not that developed. In addition, there are very few means of production related to civilian farming, so the labor force cannot be liberated.
The South China Sea Federation's pace of liberating the labor force this time is very fast. The main reason is that the world does not lack the means of production and the productivity is very high. However, the world government has deliberately created barriers to allow ordinary people to do other than low-end output. Except, nothing else will happen.
This may lead to better governance, and civilians will always be civilians. Occasionally, someone who breaks through the class will be absorbed and assimilated and transformed into a member of the oppressors.
Within the early South China Sea Federation, after the land reform, ideological reform also continued. Compared with land reform, thinking is more difficult. After all, land distribution is a matter of giving benefits, and people are very willing to accept it and are very positive.
But the education reform requires one or more workers from each family, and they are not willing to do so. Noah was not used to this. It’s okay to do well when you get benefits, but when you don’t get benefits, you want to follow the old calendar. How is that possible?
This is sometimes the case. It does not mean that a good policy will be followed. If it is not in the short-term interests, there will be too many people against it, and Noah understands this.
They are all faced with civilians with traditional ideas. You can't force yourself to study. In the end, I still lured him with benefits. First set an example, and then provide some benefits, such as tax exemptions and incentives, and then distribute some advanced agricultural equipment.
Only in this way can it be gradually promoted. Coupled with some easy-to-understand plays by the South China Sea Touring Troupe, people can understand the painstaking efforts of the Federation.
Let’s talk about the pirates in the South China Sea. Most people become pirates after they can no longer survive. Now that they have land, people at home, and books to study, who has nothing to do to risk their lives? This creates a gap for the new generation. It is all supported by the 20 countries in the South China Sea. When the 20 countries are digested in the later period, the pirates in the South China Sea will really have no way out.
Now that infrastructure has been rolled out, some major projects are severely short of manpower. Either you have to spend money to recruit workers. I tried this but there weren’t enough people. Ordinary people are not willing to go to sea to do things.
Then we have to look for other labor forces, such as these pirates running around. It's just a daily military training. Once discovered, we will immediately encircle and suppress them. If we can capture them alive, we must capture them alive.
All those who committed the most serious crimes were put to death, and all those who committed no serious crimes were made to work as workers. Because they are criminals, their wages are very small. When their sentences are over, their wages for these years will be paid out at once, allowing them to return to their hometowns and start a new life.
Noah fought for the issue of remuneration for serving prisoners. Rehabilitation through labor is very important. After serving their sentence, they must re-enter society.
With such careful consideration, the South China Sea Federation began a vigorous pirate eradication operation, which was more active than the navy. This made Zefa very depressed. After cleaning up the Nanhai branch, he is preparing to start a big fight to let these newly promoted cadres fight more and perform more meritorious deeds. It turned out that the pirates were hard to find.
In the past, you could meet someone when you went out, but now you have to rely on the intelligence system to specifically arrest them. In particular, the South China Sea Federation went too far. They tried the captured pirates themselves and did not send them to the naval base.
Although it was all for the sake of order in the sea, it still felt very uncomfortable, so I had no choice but to compete with the South China Sea Federation's army at a speed that was so powerful.
The 20 countries in the South China Sea are panicking to death. They can see the fleet of the South China Sea Federation passing by the door all day long. Occasionally, they actually cross the border to catch pirates. From time to time, there is a lot of panic.
Chapter 234 Red Historical Text
"Has Beklang officially settled on Batlila Island! Why hasn't it been settled for so long? Why haven't our troops come back yet! Do you know how I felt when I saw the South China Sea Federation's troops passing by me!"
The liaison officer cursed in his heart, even if your army is by your side, it is useless. 20 countries together will be defeated by others.
"I heard that we couldn't find anyone who could make the decision. The person in charge of external liaison, Tezog, has been missing, and that's why it's been delayed until now."
"What a South China Sea Federation! Such small tricks cannot be put on the table at all.
Forget it, let’s make a little more concessions on some conditions. Let Beckron get it done as soon as possible! "
"good."
Backlund, who was far away on Battila Island, was also wronged. He really couldn't find anyone to talk to.
At the beginning, Tezog met with him a few times. At that time, he argued hard and showed the demeanor of a foreign minister. As a result, he was alone here playing single player for the rest of the time.
There are guards following you when you go out, and you are not allowed to approach many places. I went to find Tezog again, and every time I got a reply that he hadn't come back yet, and he would tell me when he came back.
Even without the urging from the 20 countries, he knew that the current situation was urgent. The military strength of some of the world's participating countries is not very strong. This dispatch of troops was based on the idea of carving up the South China Sea Federation.
Now that everyone is trapped here, the country will be as if it is undefended. How can we not be afraid of this? Not to mention pirates, it is difficult to suppress even domestic troublemakers.
I went to Tezog's office again, and the secretary's reply was that he would be back in the next two days and would convey the request for a meeting at that time.
God, there is finally some hope. Backlund didn't even consider what harsh demands would be waiting for him in the future. Now just meeting each other is enough. Talk, talk, always have to talk.
The Voyager took Tom directly to the Island of Resurrection without going to Battila Island. Everyone on this boat knew Noah's identity, so there was no need to hide him.
Moreover, when Tom came to the South China Sea to build a sea train this time, he was already considered a member of the same camp, and Noah had no intention of cheating him at all.
Originally, he would be executed by the World Government in a year. Even if he escaped the French battleship's plan, there would be other conspiracies and tricks in the future. With Spandam's shameless attitude, as long as he didn't hand over the blueprint of Pluto, he would not be safe for a day, so he might as well come to the Revolutionary Army to do it.
When we arrived at the Island of Resurrection, the dragon was waiting for everyone on the beach. Allowing him to come out and wait for someone during his busy schedule is also a sign of respect for Tom. The deeper we go into reform now, the more we discover how serious the barrier the sea is to human beings.
He was originally a great master and could fly wherever he went. Even if he wasn't flying, he would never be afraid of anything by boat. It is only now that I have been working in depth at the grassroots level that I have noticed a travel problem that has stumped so many people.
Noah has already talked about the prospects of the sea train project in great detail. Even if the funds required were astronomical, Long did not hesitate at all. It must be built. Even if he went to the Grand Line to rob, even if he attacked Mary Joa again, he would still build it.
The commander-in-chief of the armed forces Cyborg Kongkong sneezed, making him alert. Is there anyone who wants to run wild here again? Hum, the revolutionary army must be completely eradicated sooner or later!
After Tom got off the boat, he was warmly received by the leader of the revolutionary army, which made him feel flattered. On the left is Long, the leader of the revolutionary army, and on the right is Noah, the light of the revolution. If it weren't for the smile on Long's face, he would have been a little afraid to leave. There is no one else with this specification, it is equivalent to walking with 10 billion Baileys by your side.
At the same time, Tom also knew clearly that he would join the Revolutionary Army in the future. The construction of the sea train had closely connected him with the Revolutionary Army. This was a more serious crime than building ships for the Pirate King. Before being exposed, we have to find a way to bring Cocoro here.
Along the way from the Capital of the Seven Waters to the Island of Resurrection, Noah has been talking about the various ideas and policies of the Revolutionary Army, as well as the words of uniting intelligent races around the world, which makes him feel that it is not possible to change his way of life in the future. good.
Besides, Noah was really kind to him, and he had to repay the life-saving grace. Although he was worried about the future of Franky and Bingshan, the path they chose was their own, so be it.
The most important thing is that for the fishmen, the Revolutionary Army has great friendship points. Good relationship and respect with Fishman Island. Useful for Tom the Horned Fishman. I heard that Princess Otohime and Tiger from Fishman Street both work here, which is a very good basis for cooperation.
After a while, Tiger and Jinbei also came. They brought the red historical text back from the bottom of the sea with great pains.
The great hero of the fish people, this aura cannot be ignored even by Tom who is well-informed and even has connections with Roger. Several fishmen were chatting together, and they also talked about his younger brother, Dan.
"Is that guy still doing research in the Forest of the Sea?"
"Yes, although he is a very good shipwright, he just likes to stay there and can't study anything, which is a headache."
When fellow villagers meet fellow villagers, there are too many topics to talk about.
Finally, the group came to the banquet hall where distinguished guests were entertained, and held a simple welcome ceremony to officially welcome Tom.
His job is very simple, which is to build maritime trains and establish connections between several important cities first to allow the economy to take off. After all, the money will come from the Seven Rivers Capital and the 20 countries in the future. If the stops along the way are some small countries, they are not stupid and cannot invest money.
The remaining remote routes will be carried out by the revolutionary army themselves, especially those in the outer ring defense chain, which are critical.
The specific plan requires on-site inspection. When the time comes, Xiao Feng will be escorted. Tom's safety is the top priority.
