Ignite the fire from the pirates

"It is a blessing to be able to see nothing. There are too many filthy and despicable people in this world that are hard to bear to look at."

He smiled and muttered to himself, then raised his head and looked at Kevin with blind eyes: "Revolutionary Army... Your Excellency once killed six world nobles, which I admire very much. But... I still don't know if the Revolutionary Army is the right path."

Kevin stood up and put his hand on the blind swordsman's shoulder.

"Then take a look."

As soon as the words fell, the two men disappeared from the spot except for a few Baileys on the table.

……

Cathay Pacific Qila Wolf on the East China Sea Bridge.

Two years ago, after the 112 revolutionary soldiers lurking here were discovered, the entire Taiqila Wolf Revolutionary Army retreated in all directions.

But as one of the core points of darkness in this world, the Revolutionary Army will naturally not give up this place.

Over the past two years, another group of people floated into the Tajira Wolves.

They had overseers and merchants, and some even lurked among the slaves.

Normally, they would subtly convey the core of some ideas, and would also form night schools to tell the slaves in the area they were responsible for about the outside world, while inspiring them with facts.

Under the cover of night, in a hidden place under a bridge pier.

Under the dim light, pages of New Era newspapers were posted on the blackboard, and a lecturer from the revolutionary army was explaining the reports on the pages.

"This country is also in the East China Sea, located southwest of Taiqila Wolf..."

"On the morning of March 12, a group of pirates attacked them. All three towns were massacred and all property was looted."

"The kingdom's guards only showed up three days later and were only responsible for burying all the bodies."

"This pirate group was wiped out by the Revolutionary Army a month later. According to their oral account, they reached an agreement with the king of this kingdom to reduce the population and reduce the payment of Tenjo Gold."

Having said this, the lecturer looked down at the podium.

"Now, you may ask any questions you wish. Remember, any questions."

However, a minute passed and no one raised their hand to ask questions.

"This is your first class, but I think you need to know that only by asking questions can you see the essence of a thing."

“Nothing in this world can be taken for granted. Only by raising your own doubts can you distinguish right from wrong.”

This time, a middle-aged man raised his hand.

Then he asked, "We are just slaves. We can't help them. Instead of thinking about this, we should think about how to get a bottle of milk tomorrow. I heard that drinking milk will make the child's illness heal."

The lecturer on the stage did not refute, but nodded and said: "A doctor will come to see you tomorrow. If you are sick, please tell me and I will help you. Milk can only provide nutrition, not treatment."

At this point, when the middle-aged man was about to thank him, the lecturer said, "Then there is no benefit for me to help you, but why would I help you without asking for anything in return?"

The middle-aged man wanted to express his gratitude with tears, but he was held back for a moment.

After a while, the lecturer continued, "I... am from the country I just mentioned. I am also the only survivor of the three towns that were massacred."

For a moment, everyone was stunned and stared blankly at the podium.

"So now do you have any questions?"

This time, people finally began to raise questions.

For example, Tenjojin, the members and non-members, the massacre of pirates, and why the teacher helped them...

In a class, Kevin and the blind swordsman in the corner listened to the whole class from beginning to end.

After it was over, Kevin disappeared again with him and came to a construction site of the Tekila Wolf.

The old man died from overwork and was thrown directly into the sea.

The middle-aged man knelt on the ground begging for medicine, praying to save his child. His wife, holding the child, kept hitting the ground with her head, and blood dyed the stones on the ground red.

However, the supervisor's words were full of coldness.

The most abundant thing among the Tekila wolves is slaves. What they lack most are food and medicine. If you want these, you have to exchange them for money.

A young man couldn't bear to watch this and took out the gold ring he had been hiding.

But then, he was prepared to be executed immediately by the supervisor on the grounds of hiding property.

"Boom."

The supervisor's head fell to the ground, followed by a flash of light, and all the supervisors in the construction area were killed in just thirty seconds.

The blood dyed the bridge red, and Yixiao's hand, which was tightly gripping the handle of the knife, relaxed.

"What are you going to do, Your Excellency?"

"We need Mr. Yixiao to get everyone to the boat under the bridge pier."

As soon as the gravity knife was unsheathed, the rocks under everyone's feet floated in the air, and they landed safely on the boat under the bridge pier in panic.

(Note: Fujitora's gravity can be applied by objects, such as the gravity knife, but it does not seem to act directly on people to float in the air. When pressing Zoro, the gravity acts on the ground.)

Kevin then disappeared and reappeared with a team of revolutionary soldiers to transfer everyone.

On the bridge, the blind swordsman reached out and stroked the bridge surface: "East Sea Taiqila Wolf, I have heard of this place."

Kevin: "But if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't really understand the despair that is everywhere here, right? Two years ago, 112 members of the Revolutionary Army were exposed here and discovered by the World Government, and two of the highest authorities on Marijoa came."

Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then your Excellency should win. I am very happy with this outcome."

Kevin reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder again, and the two of them disappeared from the spot again.

It is still a hidden classroom, but the attitudes and expressions of the people on the podium and in the audience have changed fundamentally.

There was also a page from the New Era newspaper on the blackboard.

After the lecturer explained the free discussion, a young man stood up from the podium and said, "Two years ago, the king of the Kingdom of Zerxi in the North Sea dug up the plague corpses buried deep underground in order to reduce the population and the payment of heavenly gold, turning the entire country into a land of death!"

"The king here is stupid and the people are pathetic! I am angry at their lack of struggle and sad at their misfortune!"

"Only by standing up and resisting can you survive!"

"The ultimate reason is the existence of Tian Shangjin. The world's nobles hold the power of this world and have the military force of the navy and the world government!"

“So only when all the oppressed people unite can there be hope for the future and we can truly live!”

"Only by strengthening our inner will can we become strong. We are human beings, not slaves!"

……

During the heated discussion, the entire cause and effect of the plague outbreak in the Kingdom of North Sea Zelsey was analyzed clearly by everyone from the root.

Behind this incident, there are the issues of oppressors and the oppressed, the military force possessed by the world government, and how the oppressed should have the power to resist.

During this process, the blind swordsman used his observation Haki to discover that almost half of these ordinary people in the past had awakened their Haki.

Kevin took him and disappeared again.

Beihai, the former site of Ferefence.

There was not even a single animal in the ruined town.

Perkins disease affects the genes of organisms, not just humans.

The two walked on the quiet street, and Kevin said, "This place was once very prosperous, because the wealth brought by the platinum and lead mines fed the nobles and also enabled ordinary people to enjoy the overflowing wealth."

"In fact, I knew about the existence of this disease before the outbreak of Perkin-Lead Disease. But do you know why I didn't come to save them at that time?"

"Mr. Yixiao, what if it were you? Would you come here in advance and ask them to leave this white town?"

The blind swordsman frowned and thought for a long time.

Finally, he replied: "According to the New Era newspaper, the lead-peroxide disease seems to have penetrated deep into their bones. Even if they are allowed to leave before the outbreak, they will still be unable to escape the fate of dying from the disease."

Kevin nodded slightly: "Yes. But the fruit of surgery that can eradicate the lead disease also came to this place at that time."

"A child who was only in his early teens took on the destiny of saving everyone's lives. Even though he was tired and vomiting blood, he never gave up."

"Trafalgar D. Law. This child has courage that adults don't have, and the motivation to dare to defy so-called fate."

"The Kingdom of North Sea Zelsi that we just heard about also rescued all the survivors under the leadership of this child."

Yixiao was silent for a while, then asked, "So even if you came here earlier, it would be useless, right?"

Kevin: "Yes, even if it comes earlier, no one will believe what I call PerkinElmer disease. Because a wealthy life will make ordinary people unable to see the truth, and because they don't know how to think..."

think?

Yixiao recalled the two lessons he had seen before.

Comparing the past and the present, it seemed that he understood what the revolutionary army was striving for.

Let ordinary people learn to think, learn to investigate the essence of a matter, and learn to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil.

Yes, he is different from ordinary people because he can become a strong man. He can awaken his domineering power and strengthen his inner will to this day. His practice of domineering power has reached the level of a strong man. He is different from others.

Because he can think, and precisely because he can think, he cannot stand the darkness of this world and closes his eyes.

But...what if everyone in this world learned to think?

The second lecture was different from the previous ones. Most of the ordinary people who had awakened their domineering power seemed to give him the answer.

At this moment, the blind swordsman's heart was trembling, because he seemed to have found his own way.

Kevin looked at him and said, "Sometimes adults are not as determined as children. They are simple-minded and just want to survive. They put their fate in the hands of others and have no idea of ​​resistance..."

"Mr. Yixiao, you closed your eyes because of the darkness of this world. You have great power but have never thought about changing this world. Why is that?"

Without waiting for Yixiao's answer, Kevin immediately asked: "Because of the strength of the navy? Because of the strength of the world government? Or is it because the whole world is rotten and beyond repair?"

For a moment, the blind swordsman's hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, and the turbulent emotions caused pieces of rubble on the empty site of Ferefance to slowly float into the air.

"Boom! Boom boom..."

The gravel fell to the ground, and he laughed at himself: "I... have always been a coward."

Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly.

"A world without hope will lead to depravity, and I just can't stand such darkness because I have seen the true light before."

True light?

He opened his eyes with a smile, his pupils turned white.

He couldn't see anything and could only sense the information reflected by his Observation Haki.

"The real light..."

Kevin replied, "It's not perfect, but it's the best future I can imagine. This world has supernatural power, and I will do my best to change it, even if it means sacrificing my life."

On the empty street, Kevin tells the story of the past of Frevans and what the revolutionary army did.

Yixiao was very interested in the child whose courage far exceeded that of adults.

"I really want to see what you look like..."

Yixiao raised his head, feeling the sunlight that was different from the night in the East China Sea: "According to the information in the New Era Newspaper and the bounty order, the gentleman should be very young, right? He is so young but is involved in a great cause and does not succumb to the darkness of this world..."

"What kind of person are you? What color is your hair? What do you look like? I wish you could keep your eyes open. I want to see your face. It should be a gentle one."

"Kind and brave... In comparison, a coward like me is ashamed to live in this world."

"Trafalgar D. Law, that child is only about fourteen years old now, right? In comparison, my courage is not as good as this child's."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kevin frowned.

Under the observation Haki, it seems that the opponent's will is collapsing.

……

Chapter 234: Meteorites Fall from the Sky to Fill the Sea

The power of domineering comes from the awakening of spiritual will, but the growth of domineering is achieved through repeated battles.

But the battle here is not about bullying, but about reaffirming one's own thoughts and ideas again and again between life and death.

The current blind swordsman Yixiao still has more than eleven years to become a navy admiral in the future.

But even with the time gap of eleven years, his use of fruit abilities and dual-color domineering are now almost the same as Borsalino and Kuzan.

However, with Kevin taking him, in just over a day, they traveled from Alabasta in the first half of the Grand Line to Tajira Wolf in the East China Sea, and then to Frevans in the North Sea.

What I saw and heard that day, combined with my own living example, and the fact that Trafalgar Law, at the age of ten, risked his life to save the survivors of his hometown...
