Chapter 761: Tentacles that cross the line! (2 in 1)

These royal families who are able to participate in the World Conference may have various character flaws, but one thing is certain: there are only a very small number of idiots among these guys.

In fact, everyone present could more or less hear the hidden meaning of Borsalino's words. A wise monarch like Elizabeth II understood it the moment he heard these words.

Having said so much, is the Navy dissatisfied with the internal affairs of the allied countries?!
It's just that the navy didn't say this directly, but used the word "pirate" to make insinuations. Although there was a layer of separation on the surface, for some powerful monarchs who thought highly of themselves, Borsalino's words were simply "explicit".

"General Kizaru."

"With this statement from your navy, are you planning to shift the blame for the rampant pirates onto the many member states present here?!"

Elizabeth II took advantage of Borsalino's conversation, tapped the table lightly, making some noise, and interrupted.

There was no falsehood. Elizabeth II was a simple-minded person. When she felt that she was being bullied by the navy, she immediately made it clear.

But he was smart enough, and when he said this he also mentioned other member states.

His words immediately attracted the support of many member states.

However, among the many member states of the World Government present at the conference, not all of them regard the navy as a political opponent. There are also some member states that have a deep understanding of the navy and Tsugakuni Yoriichi, and the prosperity and stability of their countries have long been tied to the navy.

The lord of Dressrosa this generation is a queen, Scarlett.

She is the wife of Cyrus and the eldest daughter of King Reku III. Now that King Reku III is old, he has handed over all state affairs to his daughter, and he himself has lived a retired life, growing flowers and educating his granddaughter.

Originally, Dressrosa's military and national affairs were planned to be handed over to his son-in-law Cyrus. Cyrus was one of Tsugumi Yoshiichi's earliest partners. Not only did he hold a high position in the new navy, he was also Dressrosa's ideal son-in-law.

With Cyrus as the link between the new navy and the kingdom, the people's livelihood and economy of Dressrosa also achieved leapfrog development during that period.

However, due to the attack of pirates, Cyrus unfortunately died in the sea while trying to protect the country and fulfill his mission as a navy.

Without her husband, Scarlett took on the burden that had been borne by her husband and became the queen of Dressrosa.

At the table, Scarlett noticed that Elizabeth II had intentionally or unintentionally provoked the anger of the leaders of the member states. She quietly glanced at Tsugikuni Yoriichi who was sitting peacefully in his seat, coughed lightly and said loudly:

"King Prodians, you are going too far."

"When it comes to dealing with pirates, the interests of the Navy Headquarters and those of us who are members of the World Government are consistent."

"It makes no sense to argue about who is responsible in such an occasion."

"Admiral Kizaru, have you come up with any method to deal with the pirates? Do we, the allied countries, need some cooperation?"

Scarlett held a lady's fan in her hand. Although she used the fan to cover the lower half of her face when she spoke, the volume of her voice was not affected at all.

It was impossible for Tsugikuni Yoshiichi to hold such a world conference without any preparation.

Among the many member states present, there are also many strategic allies of Yoriichi Tsugakuni, and Dressrosa is one of them.

Although Cyrus unfortunately passed away, the bond between Dressrosa and the Navy was not severed.

Not to mention that Yoshiichi Tsugakuni himself has done Dressrosa a favor, the power of the New Navy in the New World alone is something that Dressrosa must rely on and look up to.

Precisely because it is one of the core bases of the new navy, Dressrosa has become a gathering place for maritime merchants and a transit point for goods.

And it is precisely because of the protection of the navy that Dressrosa is rarely attacked and raided by pirates.

Scarlett had some understanding of Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's plan, and was very skilled in providing the ladder at this time.

"Oh!"

"As expected of the daughter of the wise King Riku, Scarlett is truly intelligent."

Taking over the conversation, Borsalino continued:
"Just as Her Highness Scarlett said, when I found out that the vast majority of the children were transformed from ordinary people who simply couldn't make a living, I was already thinking about how to completely eradicate pirates, the cancer of this era!"

"It is obviously not enough to simply suppress it with force. This is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause."

"The best solution is to eliminate the birth of pirates from the source!"

At this point, Borsalino's eyes lit up a little and his face showed excitement.

After hearing this, everyone shut up and looked at Borsalino.

"We, the navy, want to solve the problem of pirates once and for all."

"Since we want to solve the problem at the source, we must find a way to keep people's lives going!"

"I think some of you should have known that this year our navy used part of the gold collected from heaven to subsidize some poor kingdoms."

"Although this policy is only in its first year of implementation, it seems to be working pretty well so far."

"It can suppress the emergence of pirates to a certain extent."

"But this method cannot completely prevent the large-scale emergence of pirates."

"Because the national conditions and politics of some member states have become so corrupt that it is no longer possible to rely on simple economic subsidies to allow the people at the bottom of the kingdom to live with dignity."

"Even though our navy's relief funds have been distributed, due to the exploitation of certain nobles, the money will soon fall into the hands of some local gangs and nobles."

"As you know, in principle our navy will not interfere in the internal affairs of member states."

"After all, different countries have different judicial organs. Our navy can't do it for them, right?!"

"but."

"If you want to eliminate pirates, you must change this situation!"

"We must effectively punish those gangs that exploit the people's wealth, as well as the corrupted aristocracy!"

"For this reason, our navy intends to take the lead in establishing an internal affairs department, whose purpose is to combat all power crimes around the world!"

“I hope that everyone from the member countries can do their best to assist us!!” Borsalino’s voice became high-pitched, and inadvertently, a powerful aura was released from his body, oppressing everyone present.

The terrifying pressure caused the throats of several monarchs who were nearby to tighten, and their breathing became a little difficult. Some monarchs were forced by Borsalino's momentum and opened their mouths. Although they had countless thoughts in their minds, they could not utter a word.

"Internal Affairs Department?!"

"What!!! What did you say?!"

"Fighting power crimes around the world? Kizaru, do you know what you are talking about!?"

The navy's plan obviously irritated all the monarchs. The new navy's plan seemed to be aimed at pirates, but its essence was not that simple.

The Navy Headquarters is simply planning to use "eliminating pirates" as an entry point to interfere in the internal affairs of all member countries!
Allowing the Navy to handle rights crimes committed by allied nations?!
What a joke, isn't this like hanging a knife on your neck? !

This policy is definitely the beginning of the collapse of the world order in the eyes of the monarchs. Just imagine, when the navy really gets what it wants and a major general stationed in a branch abroad is qualified to deal with the nobles of the local country, what is the king for? !

In order to avoid being liquidated by the navy, would those nobles flatter the navy? The moment the king lost the power of life and death over his nobles, his power was gone!
The essence of ruling a country is actually to control the lives of everyone. This ruling goal can be achieved through the military or through the economy.

After the Navy seized the Sky Gold, it actually planned to take this part of the rights from the allied countries? !
This kind of thing used to be done by CP, but now
The monarchs of the member states have long been accustomed to being dogs for the Celestial Dragons, and naturally they keep their distance from the Celestial Dragons' direct agencies CP.

On this basis, they don't want the navy to put pressure on them.

Although under the current world political system, the navy is already extremely powerful and the member states have no way of restraining the expansion of the navy's strength, at the same time, the navy has almost never interfered in the internal affairs of any country.

Having substance without a name and having a name and substance are two completely different concepts.

"Impossible! You navy guys just need to do what you're supposed to do!"

"Whether it's corruption within the country or unreasonable policies, these are the monarchs' own business and have nothing to do with your navy!"

"Yes! No matter how chaotic our country's internal affairs are, no matter how stupid my future successor is, this is no reason for your navy to interfere in our domestic affairs!"

There were endless voices of opposition. Obviously, this policy of the navy touched upon the most fundamental interests of all member states.

This is something that the Celestial Dragons have never touched. Even the evil Celestial Dragons only kill two types of people. One is those who do not obey their orders, and the other is those who are not member states.

During the period of Celestial Dragons' rule, the role of CP was to protect the gold in the sky, and to deal with some countries and forces that would have an impact on the Celestial Dragons' rule; and to help the Celestial Dragons do some dirty and tiring work.

But in general, as long as the monarchs of the ally states play the role of "dogs" well, no one will care what they do in their own country.

Whether it's plundering the people's wealth or raping women, no one will care. You are completely free to do whatever you want.

However, if the Navy really does something, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will inevitably be contacted by the Navy if it wants to do such a thing again.

They don't even need any extra excuses. They just say "If you do this, the people can't survive and pirates will appear." and they can directly arrest the nobles. This is much more "flexible" than arresting pirates with a wanted warrant.

This kind of opening must never be opened!

In the meeting hall, the voices of opposition formed a wave, surging towards Borsalino and others.

Under such circumstances, even Scarlett couldn't go against the tide and speak for the navy.

Facing the emotional monarchs, Tsugikoku Yoriichi, who was sitting in the main seat, remained calm, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him. Sakaski, who was beside him, slammed his fist on the table in anger and said angrily:
"What do you guys think of our navy?!"

"Are we planning to do this just to compete with you for power? Isn't it to eliminate the pirates?!"

"If all of you emperors and kings are wise and powerful, and the kingdoms under your rule are prosperous and peaceful, who would be willing to risk their lives to go out to sea as a pirate?"

"Even if there are some born bad guys, ambitious people will still go out to sea as pirates, but how many of them are there?"

"Do you know how many soldiers our navy sacrifices every year to fight pirates?"

At this moment, Sakaski naturally stood on the same front with Borsalino. To a certain extent, Sakaski was a very pure person. As long as it could deal with pirates, he was willing to try any policy.

From this perspective, Sakaski can be considered a good assistant to Yoriichi Tsugakuni.

"Tsk! What nonsense are you talking about?"

"It's not us who let them die. What's the point of you telling us this?"

"They just gave their lives. As the ruler of a country, we have a lot to consider!"

"You navy people don't understand politics at all, step back! Don't interrupt!"

At this moment, all the monarchs attending the conference, regardless of their wealth or poverty, big or small, hugged each other tightly. With so many people, their tone when speaking to the generals became extremely impolite, which made Sakaski's forehead veins bulge, and lava flowed out from between his clenched fists, burning through the table top of the conference table.

However, these kings were not afraid at all and still opposed.

They know the navy too well and know that the navy will not do anything to them. Their understanding of the navy is "Without the support of our allied countries, what is your navy?"

However, these monarchs seem to have forgotten what kind of world this is.
"quiet--"

Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, who had been sitting quietly in his seat, suddenly straightened up. His voice was not loud, but it could be clearly heard by everyone. At the same time, the monarchs who were "passionately spraying" at Sakaski felt their bodies become heavy and they sat back in their original seats involuntarily.

As Tsugumi Yoshiichirō's domineering aura spread out, the originally noisy auditorium suddenly became quiet and the chaotic scene was instantly under control.

"They are extremely fearful when facing powerful pirates, but they are full of confidence when facing a powerful navy."

As he spoke, Tsugakuni Yoriichi's gaze swept over everyone. The monarchs who heard his words suddenly realized something, looked at Tsugakuni Yoriichi, and swallowed subconsciously.

Tsugikoku Yoshiichi
This guy is different from other marines.
This guy even dared to use a knife against the Celestial Dragons, and was able to survive safely after killing them!
"What Borsalino just said was not asking for your opinion."

"This is... a notification!"
