Chapter 282 The flame of revolution, the gear of destiny! (2-in-1)

The birth of the destined "liberation fighters" did not stir up any kind of storm in this sea.

Long is a well-known "extremely evil" criminal among the top brass of the Navy, but when those in the Warring States Period learned that Long had a child and that the child was brought back to the Navy headquarters by Garp, they did not react much. .

Perhaps it was because Garp was powerful enough in the Navy that senior officials did not dare to act rashly. Perhaps it was because Sengoku and his generation of Navy executives had a close relationship with Garp and did not want this incident to become a wound that broke the relationship between Garp and the Navy.

In short, Luffy's existence was tacitly ignored by all the navy's top brass.

When Garp brought Luffy, who was just born, back to the Navy Headquarters, the Five Old Stars, the highest authority in the world government, also learned the news.

But the Five Old Stars who knew the news acted as if they had never heard of it before, and had no intention of doing anything. Luffy's existence was actually selectively ignored by them.

In fact, from another perspective, this is also very easy to understand.

From the perspective of the Five Old Stars, whether Luffy, the newborn baby, is dead or alive is simply irrelevant.

They only need to know that Dragon is now on the opposite side of the World Government, but Garp still holds an important position in the Navy.

Ever since Roger died and Long left the navy, Garp has indeed become a lot lazier over the years. But even this Garp is indispensable to the navy and the world government.

Let's not talk about Garp's reputation and deterrence against pirates. Just saying that Garp has eliminated pirates in the East China Sea and maintained peace in the East China Sea over the years is an indelible achievement for the World Government.

It can be said that the pirates in the East China Sea are now known as the weakest pirate "producing place" in the four seas, and it is basically due to Garp.

The stronger pirates have long been dealt with by Garp. If the East China Sea is to appear, it will probably be an "unprecedented" super pirate.

Therefore, for the Five Old Stars, there was no need for them to push Garp out of the Navy because of a baby that was brought to the Navy Headquarters to be raised.

How could Wulaoxing not have this kind of vision and structure after living for so many years?

In their view, instead of paying attention to Garp's unimportant grandson, it is better to pay attention to Jiguo Enichi who cares about the South China Sea.

As Enichi Jikuni opened a new naval branch in the Sorbey Kingdom in the South China Sea, the World Government's attention also fell on the Sorbey Kingdom.

Jiguoyuanyi wants the Kingdom of Sorbe to develop well and expand the country's influence as much as possible, so opening up the sea is essential.

With the opening of waterways to nearby countries, the coconuts and non-staple foods made from coconuts that are abundant in the Kingdom of Sorbe can easily find a market.

In such a world, something like coconut is a treasure, and can even be used as a "strategic resource."

The shell of coconut is a very good fuel for fire. In addition to eating coconut meat directly, it can also be used to extract oil and refine sugar. This way, the product will not worry about sales.

At the same time, as news spread that Admiral Tsui Kuni Enichi had left the New World and was stationed in the Sorbey Kingdom, the Sorbey Kingdom immediately began to attract foreign populations from surrounding countries.

Dragon has been quite active in the South China Sea in recent years. Although it has been quiet for a while, the current situation in the entire South China Sea is still very chaotic.

In addition to the dragon forces, there are many pirates on the sea, crisscrossing the waterways between various countries, attacking towns from time to time, and conducting "wild" raids.

Faced with this chaotic situation, the poor people and poor people with no money can only continue their lives in fear, praying that one day "creatures" like pirates will "suddenly disappear" from this world.

For those wealthy people with huge savings and wealth, after seeing signs of chaos in their country, they immediately took all their belongings and fled their hometowns.

Where is the safest place to go after leaving?

Why bother asking?

Of course, it’s the Kingdom of Sorbey where the admiral sits!

Why do you think the people of the Chambord Islands who are often oppressed by the Celestial Dragons don't leave the Chambord Islands and find a peaceful and harmonious island to live in?

Is it because they can't do it?

It's because compared to many other countries in the first half of the Great Line, the Chambord Islands under the nose of the Navy Headquarters are safer!

How many wives and slaves can the Celestial Dragons steal?

With so many people in the Shampoo Islands, such a bad thing may not necessarily happen to you!

It is precisely because the people have such a sense of luck that the Chambord Islands, which were directly "oppressed" by the Tianlong people, are still the most prosperous place in the first half of the Great Line.

Ordinary people in the South China Sea cannot cross the upside down mountains, cannot walk through the windless zone, have no ability to sail long distances, and have no way to go to the Shampoo Islands.

But for many Nanhai people, they now have a safe place to go!

The increase in the foreign population will naturally stimulate the development of the local economy of the Sorbey Kingdom.

Those outsiders want to eat, drink, live, and have entertainment, so it is natural for them to drive local industries.

Therefore, in just a few months, the northern part of the Sorbey Kingdom has developed rapidly. Various shops have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain. The value of the original shops has also been rising.

For the aboriginal people of the Solbe Kingdom, even if they do not do any business, they can easily live a good life by renting out shops.

This is the convenience that urban development brings to ordinary people.

Jiguo Enichi has never been idle, building docks in the North and South Districts, developing wasteland, and building naval branches.

There are many "official construction" projects launched by Ji Guoyuan, and they provide food and wages. Anyone on the island who is willing to work can find a job. The living conditions are always better than simply farming.

As a set of policies continued to be implemented, Ji Guoyuan was no longer like a naval admiral temporarily stationed in the Solbe Kingdom, but became the de facto "king" of this country.

As the population increased, the Sorbey Kingdom began to become a mixed bag. The World Government's spy agency also secretly sneaked into the island without the knowledge of Enichi Kuni.

CP9, not everyone has abilities far beyond ordinary people.

Although Enichi Tsukuni's aura would monitor the island from time to time, he would not pay much attention to those guys whose auras were not much stronger than those of ordinary people.

The Sorbey Kingdom has become more prosperous with the naked eye. After Jiguoyuanyi has been in Sorbey Kingdom for nearly three months, Xiong feels that he has clearly seen the purpose of Jiguanyuan and takes the initiative to find Jiguoyuanyi. , hoping to do something for the people in his hometown.

Yuan Yihe was very happy about this.

He stayed on this island for so long and did so many things. On the one hand, he wanted to expand his influence in the South China Sea. On the other hand, he wanted to use his actions to effectively influence the two "prisoners" Abel and Xiong. .

Yuanyi has a lot to do. To eradicate the Tianlong people, he needs a lot of combat power.

Whether it is Jin or Xiong, they are both the ones Yuanyi wants to win over to help him. These rare ethnic groups who were once stepped on by Tianlong talents have accumulated a lot of anger during their long years of escape. Their joining , can resonate with more people.

Of course Jiguo Yuanyi accepted the arrival of the bear with anger, but at the same time he did not let the bear idle, letting the bear help the people transport supplies and speed up construction.

His meat ball fruit ability is really wasted if not used as a coolie!

If possible, Yuanyi even wants Xiong to set up an express logistics company, which will definitely make a lot of money. Its influence will definitely far exceed the logistics "company" created by the future Yonko "Baki-sama".

Frequently appearing in the public eye, the existence of the bear was quickly discovered by CP9 and reported to the World Government.

After Wu Laoxing learned the news, he immediately asked about Jiguoyuan Yixiong through Sengoku.

Yuanyi's answer to this is also very simple.

"A prisoner serving his sentence through hard labor in the navy."

"Nothing to fuss about."

"Is it possible that you think such a guy can escape from my hands?"

In this regard, Wu Laoxing instructed Sengoku to extradite Xiong back to the Navy headquarters, but Jiguo Yuanichi refused.

The reason why the Five Old Stars want to get the bear is also very simple, that is, they value the bear's ability. They hope to use the bear's "blood factor" to explore the meat ball fruit and explore the powerful secrets of the Bakania tribe.

Although Enichi didn't know what Sengoku's purpose was, how could he endure his "nuclear bomb launcher" being held in the hands of others?

The orders from the headquarters were actually rejected outright by Ji Guoyuan, but Warring States was not angry at all. He had been used to it for a long time, and he had become immune to this kind of thing.

After the Five Old Stars learned the news, they had no good solution. They could only strengthen their infiltration work into the Solbe Kingdom and closely monitor Jiguo Enichi's every move.

At the same time, taking advantage of Ji Guoyuan's absence in the New World, he strengthened his penetration of the islands under the control of the Sword of Dawn.

As of now, God knows how many people from the World Government there are in Dressrosa. I am afraid that only the Fishman Island where Jinbei is located and the surrounding islands of Thunder God Island created by Yixiao's reclamation can remain pure.

As for the navy team, the headquarters has no way to directly intervene in the personnel transfer of the Sword of Dawn, which also avoids the possibility of large-scale infiltration of the Sword of Dawn by the World Government.

February 1506 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Ji Guoyuan stayed in the South China Sea for nearly a year.

During these times, everything in the Sorbey Kingdom was prosperous. The vast majority of people in the originally impoverished areas in the south had completely escaped poverty. Food and clothing were no longer the primary goal pursued by people.

At the same time, the North District is beginning to look like a big city. There are densely packed shops on both sides of the road, selling a wide variety of goods.

There are even many entertainment venues opened.

For example, at the dock, there are countless shops such as bars and restaurants.

Tsukuni Enichi's naval base in the Kingdom of Sorbe is located at the harbor in the North District.

After several expansions, the seaport to the north of the Sorbey Kingdom has become unusually large. It is a military port that is independent of the civilian port. Even if the Dawn warship is docked on the shore, there is still a lot of room to spare.

In the afternoon, the sun is shining brightly.

The sea breeze caressed the coast gently, bringing a slight coolness.

On the beach on the shore, there was a team of sailors, shirtless, conducting firearms training under the command of a sergeant. The content of the training was formulated by Ji Guoyuan, a "simple" gun-holding exercise. On the muzzle of the gun held by each sailor with both hands, a stone of about one hundred kilograms was hung.

Maybe you think it's outrageous, but in fact, for these elites from Dressrosa, this level of training is just an appetizer.

Jiguo Enichi actually doesn't expect them to be able to use firearms well. This training not only trains them to handle the guns with stability, but also exercises their physical fitness.

Compared with firearms, Yuanyi hopes that all of his subordinates can master Haki, and be able to master a shaver in one hand and an iron block in the other. Not to mention how much combat power he has, he can at least save his life to the greatest extent when facing pirates.

With Jiguo Enichi's operation during this period, the waterways around the Sorbey Kingdom have long been connected, and the influence of his branch has quickly covered nearly a quarter of the entire South China Sea.

The number of pirates on the sea has obviously decreased a lot under the iron-blooded suppression of Enichi Jikun. However, outside the radiation range of the Sorbe Kingdom, there will still be chaos.

In recent times, Dragon's actions have become less and less frequent and more secretive.

Long Cong finally learned something from Ji Guoyuanyi's behavior. He no longer simply provided weapons, combat support, and tactical guidance to those who intended to resist.

Because Long discovered that this kind of mercenary resistance method could not be put on the stage after all.

He learned something from Jiguo Yuanyi, and in the subsequent actions, he began to strengthen the economic construction of the region. And it wasn't until Long focused on this aspect that Long realized how complicated this matter was.

Construction is far easier than helping people resist.

After realizing this, Long began to slowly advance his career. The first thing he did was to "abolish slavery" and "abolish all nobility" in the area under his control.

Long's revolutionary army took a big step and tore their own eggs, causing a huge backlash.

Although "abolition of slavery" touches the cake of some people, at least it is from a moral perspective, and there are still many countries in the world that do not recognize slavery.

But Long's second strategy had a huge impact.

It is probably difficult for people in this world to imagine a world without a king.

What Long did was something that even Ji Guoyuan would not dare to do.

In Dressrosa, he and the Riku King clan coexisted peacefully, trying not to interfere with each other as much as possible. In the Solbe Kingdom, they just continued to operate along the original track. He also followed the original system. It has attracted many people to do things for itself.

Being one step ahead of the times is genius; being two or three steps ahead is lunacy.

Moreover, the biggest dream of those who follow the dragon after victory is not to become a dutiful farmer or worker.

What they want is a richer and more generous life.

Dragon's talents still cannot escape the limitations of this world.

And Long's behavior, exaggerated by the media and newspapers, also became "heinous"!

Even the Five Old Stars paid much less attention to Jiguo Yuanyi, and were more concerned about the development of Long.

The entire South China Sea is undercurrent.

And on this day, a dog-headed warship slowly sailed towards the Kingdom of Sorbey.

Not long after, the dog-headed warship docked at the coast of Solbei Kingdom.

The long wooden ladder had just been placed on the dock. The burly Garp, holding his booger in his left hand, slowly walked down from the warship.

Next to Garp was a little boy with black hair. In his hand, he held a Western knife that was taller than the others.

After following Garp off the boat, he curiously poked his head and looked around.

"Hum hum!"

"Let's go, Ace!"

Garp flicked his nose with his left hand, lowered his head, glanced at the little boy next to him with a smile, said, and then walked towards the naval base of the Sorbey Kingdom.
