From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 15, Six Months Later, the Kingdom of Sorbe

With a transportation monopoly, the profits from trade can be astonishingly high.

The Grand Line is isolated by the Calm Belt. If any sea wants to enter the Grand Line, the only options besides risking their lives to climb Mount Reverse are special passages that allow ships to be hoisted up and lowered back down.

The weather in the Grand Line is unpredictable and varied. There are countless islands with only one season a year. The trade differences caused by the different weather conditions result in vastly different prices for goods between islands. Only islands with peaceful weather on all four seas have basically the same prices.

So... this is a business.

However, it is clear that the unique nature of the Grand Line led the World Government to block this route.

So at that moment, Rem took a step back: "You're getting bolder and bolder, Kevin!"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "What if I could ensure you master Haki? Ultimately, in this world, you need power to have a voice. During my trip to Loguetown, I met that monster genius who was all the rage in the elite class six years ago. Now he's a Lieutenant General in the Headquarters, Rem. That kind of advancement... it's too fast."

After she finished speaking, Rem frowned and remained silent.

The monster from the elite Marine Headquarters six years ago was Kuzan. Six years later, he and two other monsters have become candidates for the next Admiral.

Admiral... the Navy's top combat force.

Kevin wasn't in a hurry. He smiled, patted Rem on the shoulder, and then left for the bow of the ship.

Mastering and enhancing one's domineering aura depends on one's mental will, but using it requires strong physical attributes. Rem's physical attributes have long been up to par, but the reason he has not been able to master it is simply because his mind is not yet strong enough.

His work as a supervisor of the special channels had brought him some peace of mind.

But the more this is the case, the less likely he is to get to headquarters.

……

The impact of the death of Pirate King Roger on the entire world is gradually becoming apparent.

In the West Blue alone, the number of pirates attacking Rasgap Town to enter the Grand Line is more than four times that of the past.

The naval branch in the West Blue began to get busy, and the 80th branch was constantly providing support. Countless pirates were arrested as soon as they set sail and hoisted their flags.

Dragon also made a thousand trident kunai, which were placed in many places around the world after Kevin used the Flying Thunder God Technique to reach the landing spatial coordinates.

On that same day, in the town of Lasgap in the West Blue, besides Kevin, a diligent executioner who arrested pirates, a masked man calling himself the Fire Seed appeared in the impoverished nations of the Grand Line and the four seas.

……

Six months later.

South Sea, Kingdom of Sorbe, Church of the Southern Town.

"Let's get married, Xiongxiong."

"Huh? No way!"

"Why, you brat! You clearly love me so much, don't you? I'll make you happy!"

"I know that too..."

A hint of longing flickered in Big Bear's eyes, but the images in his memory quickly brought him back to his senses.

So he picked up the newspaper, ready to change the subject.

At that moment, a voice rang out.

"Oh my gosh! Look what incredible news I've heard! Ginny, are you going to propose to Uncle Bear?"

The sound startled Big Bear and Ginny, who then saw a figure walk in from outside the church.

Big Bear laughed and reached out to ruffle Kevin's hair, but Kevin dodged it.

"I'm not a child anymore, Uncle Bear!"

After a hug, Kevin continued, "What a coincidence! Wouldn't it be perfect if I could attend your wedding?"

Big Bear said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't do that, Kevin, I..."

Seeing this, Ginny chimed in, changing the subject: "You brat, you just call me by my first name? I'm four years older than Bichon Frise, shouldn't you call me Aunt Ginny?"

Kevin shook his head firmly: "Uncle Xiong saved me back then. You just came along to freeload."

"Ah! You damn brat! It's been over two years, looks like you've forgotten how terrifying I am!"

Ginny launched a kick, but Kevin easily dodged it.

With a turn and a quick step, he sent her sprawling into the bear's arms.

Kevin shook his index finger: "I told you, I'm not a child anymore! Ginny, you big devil, you can't beat me now! Hahaha!"

These words enraged Ginny, who was nestled in Big Bear's arms. She turned and pointed at Kevin, yelling, "You brat! I bought your baby formula from scrap metal when you were little, and now you dare to bully me! Big Bear! Let's beat him up!"

Big Bear, watching the two bicker and even fight back and forth, was helpless. This had become the norm since Kevin turned six.

Although Kevin started helping out when he was five, it didn't stop the two of them from their daily battles of wits.

"Hahaha! Looks like you guys are doing great, is it this lively every day?"

A burst of laughter rang out, and Ivankov and Dorag arrived at the church at that moment.

When Big Bear and Ginny looked over, they were quite surprised.

"Big brother?!"

"Little Eva, who's that next to you...?!"

Ginny was surprised by Ivankov's appearance, while Big Bear, who had been following the Self-Defense Forces' operations, was even more surprised by Dragon's appearance.

By this time, Kevin was no longer the low-key person he had been in Lasgap.

He walked up to Dragon with a smug grin and said, "This is the important person I brought back this time, the commander of the Revolutionary Army, Monkey D. Dragon. The Self-Defense Force that you've been paying attention to, Uncle Xiong, is the predecessor of the current Revolutionary Army."

Dragon nodded, then walked up to the bear and extended his hand: "Since the Yongjun officially became the Revolutionary Army six months ago, I have been looking for like-minded partners. Ivankov and Kevin both recommended you to me...

Bear hurriedly reached out and shook hands with Dragon: "I've always wanted to help others, but my strength is still very weak."

Ivankov quickly interjected, "The Paw-Paw Fruit's power isn't weak, Kuma! We want to change this world, let's do it together!"

It was a very simple invitation, without any grand pronouncements.

But Big Bear, who had always known the Ziyong Army, directly reached out and shook hands with Dorag.

At this moment, Ginny nudged Kevin with her elbow: "You brat, tell me the truth, did this guy just mean for me to do that?"

Although the sound was very soft, Dragon clearly heard it.

He quickly said to Ginny, "I'm very sorry for my rudeness earlier. Before coming here, Ivankov told me that you have a deep understanding of Den Den Mushi and are also a very strong fighter."

"The revolutionary army needs all like-minded partners. It is impossible for me to change the world by myself alone. I need your help."
