Chapter 109 A Completely Different Fate
Oden, who had also finished watching two speeches in a row, was in a complicated mood at the moment. He didn't even pay attention to the playfulness between Hiwa and Kevin across from him.
revolution……
Five years ago, when I was traveling on the sea with Roger, there was no such saying in this world.
When this term first came into being, perhaps everyone thought that the so-called revolutionary army was just a small-scale operation.
Even the bounty on the cloaked man, how much of the 2 billion Baileys is related to the dead Celestial Dragons?
I'm afraid ninety-nine percent of them are.
The World Government underestimated the Revolutionary Army. Perhaps at this moment, in their eyes, the Revolutionary Army was just an organization that could restrain Mr. Spark.
At this time, Oden seemed to understand why Captain Roger was willing to continue living in that form.
The captain is not a man who is afraid of death!
Even though he was suffering from a terminal illness, he was still able to laugh and fulfill his lifelong dream in his last year.
After the execution in Rogue Town, these guys have become people of the old era.
How could a person like Roger be willing to continue to exist in a half-dead form if he didn't want to see the verification of that statement in the future?
The stone tablet does not explain which of the two foreseen futures is better.
The first time I heard the name Revolutionary Army, I was furious because of Kanjuro's death, but now I think that this name, appearing in such an era, represents a lot of things.
Return power to the people and do not rely on one person for the safety of the entire nation.
Just like what the gentleman asked himself before, does Momonosuke really have the courage to become the monarch of a country in the future?
A monarch...
He acted on impulse and did not seek external help. He naively believed that the other party was a powerful pirate like Whitebeard and Roger and would abide by the agreement.
If it wasn't for the Yasu family, if it wasn't for Shimotsuki Hikoichirō bringing back foreign aid at the last minute, if it wasn't for the two sorcerers being killed in advance...
Too many ifs.
Because of one of his choices, millions of people in Wano Country are living in hell. Countless people will die under the rule of the Beasts Pirates, and staying alive has become a luxury.
This ending is simply a choice made by himself as a member of the Kozuki clan and the monarch of Wano Country.
Millions of lives depend on one person. Is this a good system?
This seems to be beyond doubt.
Oden's gaze was still on the speech instructor outside the window, who was spitting and speaking passionately.
He also saw the indignant warriors in the crowd.
However, these efforts will eventually be crushed by those two words and turned into the dust of history.
The Kang family name is too persistent.
But I cannot be obsessed. This country has been liberated, and what will follow is the liberation of thought.
When the country is truly founded in the future, this country must become a booster for the revolutionary army.
Otherwise, there will be chaos in Wano Country and a real ideological struggle.
"You seem to have thought it through?"
Kevin asked casually as he held Hiyori and teased her.
And Oden picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Think it over. If I hesitate any longer, it will only bring disaster to this country."
Kevin looked at Oden.
It seems that after experiencing Kanjuro's betrayal and the deception of Kaido and Orochi, he has grown a little.
Compared to the experience of going to sea with Whitebeard and Roger, this period of time made him more like a monarch.
"It will take some time for the people of Wano to awaken, and during this time the country needs stability. So for the time being, the management of the shogun and the daimyo will not change, and you will still be the temporary shogun."
Kozuki Oden nodded: "I understand. The influence of Kaido and Orochi is still there, and the people have not yet been liberated. Big changes at this time will cause panic."
"Oh? You've become a lot smarter."
Kevin smiled.
But Xiao Rihe on his body was unhappy and reached out to pull Kevin's hair.
"You are making fun of father, bad uncle!"
This made the two of them laugh.
Compared to Momonosuke, Kevin prefers little Hiyori of this age. After all, no man can resist a smart and beautiful little daughter, even if she is someone else's little cotton-padded jacket.
After rubbing Xiao Rihe's hair, Kevin casually said, "Did you, Roger, and Rayleigh see anything in Raftel? Was there any trace of me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Oden's hand that was pouring tea froze in mid-air for a moment.
After a while, he put it down and said, "Raftel can't say it. That place is the last hope of this world."
"Is that so?"
Kevin didn't ask any more questions, but pointed out another person whose presence was not strong: "The ability of the To-To-To Fruit is very special. Although it cannot travel to the past, it can keep going to the next future. Moreover, it can also see some scenes of the future."
"Mrs. Toki knows more about this world than you and I do. She herself was even a figure in the blank hundred years eight hundred years ago. And the stone tablet of the historical text was made by the stonemasons of Wano Country."
"So I think it's not surprising that Raftel has a prophecy about me or the Revolutionary Army."
Oden sighed with a helpless smile.
So this is the gap, the intelligence and analysis are so different.
This person can infer a lot of things just from a few words.
But he still didn't answer. As he said before, there were two possible futures for this world recorded there, one that could make the whole world laugh, and the last ambiguous sentence.
He would not say either one because it concerned the whole world.
At this time, the speech on the street platform had ended.
Not long after, a woman holding a few books in one hand and holding a girl's hand with the other hand went up the stairs to the second floor of the teahouse.
Kevin took a look and found it somewhat strange.
The instructors of the Revolutionary Army who came to Wano Country to give lectures and classes were all selected by Dragon and Uncle Bear, and then transported here using the Chicken Talisman and the power of the Meatball Fruit.
Compared to four thousand people, the number is much smaller, and Dorag can handle it.
But because of this, Kevin really didn't know who was coming.
"Mr. Mask!"
There was joy in his exclamation. Robin, who was already ten years old, had grown a lot taller than he was two years ago, and he trotted over directly from the stairs.
"I didn't expect to meet you here."
Behind Robin, Olivia bowed slightly towards Kevin.
But the next sentence exposed Little Robin.
"Isn't it because you know Mr. Spark is here that you work so hard to become a mentor, little Robin?"
This made Little Robin a little flustered. Although she was already the youngest scholar and ideological mentor on the island, she absolutely admired Mr. Spark, who had created the core idea of the Revolutionary Army.
This is not only because of O'Hara's rescue, but more because the more I understand the ideas brought by Mr. Spark, the more I feel their greatness.
Kevin also looked at Robin in surprise: "So little Nicole is not only the youngest scholar now, but also the youngest ideological mentor? This is really amazing!"
This made Robin's face turn even redder.
Nothing can better prove one's efforts than the recognition of those you admire.
At this time, the little Rihe who was still in Kevin's arms was unhappy. He poked his little head out and looked at Robin: "I can be a mentor too!"
Oden, who was sitting opposite, also looked at Robin in surprise, and after hearing what Hiyori said, he laughed and replied: "That's not an easy thing, little Hiyori. Also, maybe you will call this sister teacher in the future."
teacher?
Xiao Rihe pouted and looked very unconvinced.
She felt that as soon as this young lady appeared, she stole all the attention from the masked uncle and her father.
Robin was now curiously looking at Hiyori, even ruffling her colorful hair with his hand.
"My name is Nico Robin, and I'm currently serving as a rotating tutor at Huadu First School. If you want to become a scholar or tutor, you need to work very hard."
Xiao Hiwa turned his head and tried to get rid of Robin's evil little hands, but he was too young and could only be ravaged.
Soon, under Robin's reluctant gaze, Olivia took her to the other side to order some special food.
The interaction between the two little guys made Kevin feel much more relaxed, and his originally tragic fate was changed.
In our memory, Robin, who had been betrayed repeatedly since he was eight years old and who later distrusted anyone before meeting the protagonists, now had a wonderful childhood.
In his arms, there was still the resentful Xiao Hiyori. In her memory, she had been burdened with the national hatred and family feud since childhood. As a princess of the Kozuki clan, she ended up in a brothel and became an Oiran, defrauding money to support the people in Wano Country who were no longer happy.
Now Oden and Toki are still alive, Orochi is dead and Kaido has been recruited, and the original fate has been completely changed.
Kevin lifted little Hiyori up and placed her on the table.
"Study knowledge and ideas well, it can make the people of Wano Country live a better life. One day in the future, maybe you can become the first female president of Wano Country."
Female president?
What is the president?
Seeing the little guy's confusion, Kevin explained: "It is the commander who manages the entire Wano nation's life, politics and military. Don't you think your brother is not capable? Then maybe you can try hard."
The little guy didn't hear the latter part of the sentence at all, but only remembered the first half.
Manage the entire Wano Country?
Isn't that the general?
As a girl, she is actually smart and knows the difference between herself and her brother.
But now the masked uncle says yes?
"gentlemen……"
Oden hesitated to speak.
Kevin raised his hand to stop him and asked bluntly: "Do you think the election is about talent? Or gender?"
This one sentence left Oden speechless.
Compared to Momonosuke and Oden, Kevin actually likes Hiyori more.
Oden danced the * dance for five years because he lacked the courage to fight to the end and was stupid. Momonosuke let his subordinates be tied up and sucked dry by Green Bull in order to prove himself. He was a fool.
But a little girl named Hiyori felt that she was a burden after learning that Kawamatsu herself could not eat enough, so she decided to leave.
Later, as a powerless woman, even after becoming an oiran, she still used her remaining strength to help the people and avenge Orochi.
"I want to be a female president! Let Taozi clean the toilet every day!"
Xiao Rihe, who was standing on the table, raised his hands and spoke of his ambitions, which directly interrupted Kevin's thoughts.
Oden on the opposite side also smiled helplessly, thinking that it would be better if the two children's personalities were switched.
……
The early stages of arrangements for Wano Country are already on track, and Kevin's focus has shifted back to the Marine Headquarters.
During the war with the Beasts Pirates, the morning swordsmanship lessons were interrupted for a long time.
I don’t know if the tough white-haired guy has recovered from his injuries during this period. In addition, the memories brought by Kuzan’s shadow clone during his recent voyages seem to be a bit subtle.
This candidate admiral, who is about to become the navy's top combat force, seems to be intentionally looking for traces of the Revolutionary Army and has met people from the CP several times.
In this situation, Kevin is also considering whether to meet Kuzan once with another identity, or wait until this person truly confirms his heart.
In addition, the quadrennial World Government Conference and the collection of heavenly gold are about to begin.
As for the Eastern Army of the Revolutionary Army, it has recently been busy developing a route to collect the heavenly gold in the East China Sea and the first half of the Grand Line. This is very important.
The power of the revolutionary army has entered the latent development stage. The money required for this stage is huge. The research institute makes requirements every day, and Bailey also needs to invest every day in the development of new latent members.
It is impossible to make trouble when you are hungry.
If it weren't for the trade that was still going on around the world, the company would have probably run out of funds by now.
"Dong dong."
The armchair was knocked, and Kevin, who was lying on the deck with his eyes closed in thought, opened his eyes: "Are we at the headquarters?"
"There's still half a day left."
Kuzan sat next to Kevin, in the exact same recliner.
After looking around, he whispered, "Have you read that book?"
Uh →_→
Most of that book was based on the core he provided, and he really didn't read it.
Kuzan exhaled and said, "A new round of Tenjojin is about to begin on the World Government side. Also, on the North Sea side, the World Government is taking action against Germa."
Kevin looked over and said, "I remember Germa is also a member of the alliance, right?"
Kuzan replied: "Looking back at past mistakes is enough to find an excuse. What the higher-ups are concerned about is Germa's technological capabilities. After all, Vegapunk has been missing for some time."
Kevin: “About us?”
Kuzan nodded slightly: "Marshal Sengoku has been notified. We will go to the North Sea as a punitive force. Borsalino still needs to stay in the Sabaody Archipelago, Sakaski is in the New World, and my ability can freeze the sea surface to prevent them from escaping."
Stop the escape?
I don't know if Germa's technology, the boots that can moonwalk and a series of black technologies have come out. After all, the invisibility technology appeared quite early in the comics.
But the World Government was obviously well prepared. Unless Judge was prepared to be alone with his children, they would not be able to escape if the sea level froze.
