One Piece: Lord of Disaster
Page 193
"Charge! Soldiers!"
People dressed in rags, but armed with sophisticated weapons, walked along the dilapidated roads of the capital under the command of a man.
"As long as we overthrow the corrupt royal family, our country will surely become as prosperous as those member states!"
The man, who was also pale and thin, was as agile as a monkey. He climbed up a low house beside the road and roared at the top of his lungs.
"Fight! Soldiers! For our bread and milk! For our hungry families!!"
"Oh!!"
The rebel army, like a tide, stormed into the palace without encountering any obstruction along the way.
The people of the royal capital watched this with indifference.
The soldiers guarding the palace put up a perfunctory resistance and then gave way.
So the rebels came before the king smoothly.
The king just sat calmly on his throne, alone, and his family didn't know where he had sent them.
The king's face was full of fatigue and his eyes were numb.
"this time,"
The rebel leader strode up to him, grabbed the king by the collar and pulled him to his feet. "Newgate will not help you!"
"Tired, destroy it,"
The king said indifferently, "Whatever you want to do."
This is not the first rebellion.
During this year, thanks to the World Economic Newspapers that vigorously promoted the member states of the government, the citizens living in difficult circumstances generally developed a yearning for the membership of the world government.
I feel that the air in those countries is sweet.
However, after living a hard life for a long time, when one suddenly sees the real good life, the gap in one's heart quickly turns into dissatisfaction.
The trend in the country suddenly changed.
Some people want to go to sea in pursuit of a better life.
Some people began to complain about the royal family's inaction.
Someone began to want to change all this.
It's ridiculous to say that these people have never really seen what foreign countries look like. Just because of the propaganda in the newspapers, they believe that the member states are paradise on earth and the country they live in is hell.
And in order to change this hell, it started out as protests, but when no change was seen, the protests turned into riots, and finally, rebellion occurred.
Because the newspapers said that the kings of all member states were the wisest kings, the most benevolent, the most just, the most kind, and the most altruistic, and all their actions were for the people and for the country.
It is because of the leadership of these kings that all the member states can prosper.
So, in order to save this country that has fallen into the quagmire, the rebels decided to change the king of this country.
The King of the Sphinx found it very funny. He had never met the kings of the allied countries, but didn’t he know what the nobles were like?
He thought he had done a good job.
He spent most of the money that White Beard secretly sent back on people's livelihood.
But this country is really poor. Even a great pirate like Whitebeard cannot make it rich on his own, and he has no profitable industries.
How could this country develop without any resources and geographical advantages?
But the people don't care about this. They firmly believe that as long as they replace a wise ruler, the country will be able to develop!
The king didn't care, so why did he rebel? What could the poor people use to rebel?
Turns out he was wrong.
The poor people got a large number of advanced weapons from somewhere.
How advanced is it?
The rebels, who had basically no training, used these weapons to beat the Sphinx's regular army and made them flee in panic.
If Whitebeard had not returned urgently to mediate, the Sphinx would have changed dynasties that time.
The residents of this country then realized that the famous pirate Whitebeard was actually from their country and had always been keeping an eye on the Sphinx.
But even so, it's not over yet.
Although Whitebeard stated that what was published in the newspapers was nonsense, many member states of the World Government were not having a good time.
However, people only agreed with him on the surface, and as soon as he left, the rebellion broke out again.
The rebels believed that the royal family who colluded with pirates was too corrupt!
Could it be that the kings of the allied nations were involved with pirates? This was another major reason why the Sphinx couldn't develop!
The Whitebeard Pirates could only return in a hurry.
Whitebeard was furious.
He concluded that there must be someone behind this incident.
Otherwise, why did the rebellious ideology spread so rapidly? Where did those advanced weapons come from?
While trying hard to help the king maintain the domestic situation, Whitebeard was also investigating what was going on.
Not long ago, seeing that the domestic situation had stabilized, Whitebeard also discovered something overseas, so he went out to sea again.
However, as soon as he left, a new round of rebellion broke out.
All stability is just the calm before the storm.
The king had completely given up on this and didn't even bother to send his army to fight back.
He believes that he is worthy of this country. Although he intercepted some of the money sent back by White Beard and sometimes exploited the people, there is nothing wrong with wanting to maintain the most basic decency, right?
"You can run this country the way you want,"
The king smiled wryly, "I'd like to see how you make this country prosperous and strong."
Upon hearing this, the rebel leader was furious. "Great! You actually don't care about this country at all! Every king of the allied countries is ready to sacrifice himself for his country at any time!"
"Sure enough, a bug like you, how could you possibly govern this country!"
The king just sneered.
He really had nothing to say to this mentally ill idiot.
"We will hang your head at the palace gate!"
The rebel leader shouted, "Let me show you with your own eyes how we have made this country strong!"
But, that was when it happened.
"Stop it! You idiots! Are you still so proud of being fooled?"
An angry voice came from the dilapidated palace gate.
The rebels turned back.
An extremely tall figure walked in, holding a naginata in one hand and holding a trembling man in the other.
"Newgate..."
The king immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that he doesn't need to die.
Even though things have gone to shit, being alive is certainly a good thing!
"White beard!"
The rebel leader gritted his teeth, "Why did you come back? This country doesn't welcome you! If you really want the best for this country, you shouldn't have anything to do with it anymore!"
"How could the government allow us to become a member state when we're connected to someone like you?"
The corner of Whitebeard's eye twitched. "I'll save my daydreams for when I fall asleep. Joining the alliance? Don't make me laugh!"
Still joining the member states?
Without his funding, the country would have collapsed long ago.
"Idiots, this was all premeditated!"
Whitebeard threw the man in his hand to the ground, "You have been deceived!"
"Someone's taking advantage of this situation to fan the flames! Just to sell weapons! Rebellions have broken out in many countries across the New World! And the rebels are using advanced weapons!"
He pointed at the man on the ground, grimacing in fear. "This guy is a loan shark. When you guys don't have money to buy weapons, guys like him pop up and offer loans to buy them, right?"
"It's the same in other countries too. Do you think it's such a coincidence?"
The king was stunned for a moment, and then his face twisted. "Really? Is someone playing tricks on me?"
But why, why is it a country like theirs that is so poor and has nothing?
but.
"I understand!"
The rebel leader's eyes lit up. "The government must have noticed our righteous actions and sent people to help us quietly!"
Snapped!
Whitebeard slapped his forehead.
He looked at the king with veins throbbing on his forehead. "I'll take care of this rebellion for you first. You maintain the domestic situation. Then, I'll go find that loan shark and ask him what he's up to!"
"He and the people behind him are seeking death!"
"Ok!"
The king nodded vigorously.
then.
"There's really nothing we can do about it."
As the Snail Fleet rumbled across the sea, Luo Ya sighed, "Uncle Whitebeard has always hated me since we were kids. Uncle Wang Zhi, I'm counting on you!"
The corner of Wang Zhi's mouth twitched.
