Inside the Kingdom of Ligurig, in the jungle near a large plantation, there is a simple encampment.
In the camp, a person wearing a dark green cloak looked at the troubled crowd and asked, "Don't they believe me yet?"
“Yes, Chief, no matter what, they don’t believe us. Even if you bring the nobles to their doorstep, they still won’t believe us and will think we are thugs.”
A one-eyed man sighed, "Chief, when did we, the revolutionary army, become thugs...?"
Dorrag fell silent.
They had discovered the problems in this country long ago, and he came here this time to solve them. But just like before, no matter how the revolutionary army tried to persuade the common people, even if they sent a nobleman over, they still believed that the revolutionary army was forcing them, and it was still ineffective.
This long-standing deception of the common people by the nobility cannot be resolved in a short period of time.
"Hey, Dragon, you keep saying you want to overthrow this country, but you haven't succeeded yet!"
A voice came from the tents in the camp, and a man dressed as a nobleman came out, looking impatient: "Are you even capable? The people are suffering! Those people are raising pirates to harvest the people's wealth. Every time you take a cut, they suffer a bit more. You are the leader of the revolutionary army, why don't you just go and kill them? Let me ascend the throne, and I promise I won't let the people suffer like this."
Dorrag glanced back at him. It was this nobleman who had told them about the country's situation long ago, and that's how they learned about the problems here. Similarly, they had chosen this nobleman as the new king after his overthrow.
"no..."
Dragon shook his head and said, "Our Revolutionary Army is committed to internal change within the country. If no one agrees with you, even if we forcibly overthrow you, it won't make any difference. Anyway... let's continue fighting the pirates. No matter what, let's protect the lives of the people first."
"cut..."
The nobleman scoffed and said nothing more.
The one-eyed man roared, "You bastard, you clearly need to rely on us, yet you're acting so rudely. Show some respect to the leader!"
“No matter how bad my attitude is, I would never oppress the people like this. You are the chosen king, and apart from me, no one else will pay any attention to you!” the nobleman said directly.
Indeed, because he was just a minor nobleman without territory and no ability to form a pirate crew.
This is the custom in this country: the nobles form their own pirate crews to regularly plunder the wealth of the people, but they can't let the people find out, otherwise who will run the plantations? They don't know how. If they don't provide high welfare, the people won't be very enthusiastic, but if they provide too much welfare, the nobles won't make any money. So they can only give first and then rob.
This nobleman was well aware of this. Anyone with a bit of ability would be willing to make contact with such a revolutionary army. After all, even if the revolutionary army overthrew the country and put him on the throne, he would only be able to collect a small amount of tax for a long time. But he would still be a king, which would certainly be better than now.
After the nobleman said that, the one-eyed man pursed his lips, glared at him, and said nothing more.
Indeed, only he would do such a thing. Regardless of his attitude, at least he was the one who informed the Revolutionary Army about the situation here; he has a heart for the people...
"Chief, Chief!"
Just as Dragon was racking his brains for a solution, a revolutionary soldier suddenly emerged from the jungle, panting and pointing behind him, "The navy! The navy is here!"
"navy?"
Dragon was taken aback. "How come there's a navy here? This is non-member state territory; the navy shouldn't be here."
Non-member states don't pay money to the World Government, so the Navy obviously doesn't care. Why then would the Navy exist...?
"I don't know, but that group of marines also joined the fight against the pirates!" the revolutionary soldier said quickly.
Dorrag frowned, and his body transformed into a gust of wind, disappearing from the spot and ascending directly into the sky.
In his field of vision, a large number of 'white' things suddenly appeared nearby, rushing towards the villages and towns at great speed. Meanwhile, in the large plantation below, a group of pirates were being chased like chickens, surrounded and annihilated by the navy.
"So fast?"
Dragon sensed something was wrong. These marines weren't moving at superhuman speed, and besides their clothes, there was a strange white mist surrounding them...
Then he saw the bearded man in a plantation and exclaimed in surprise, "Cass?"
This person is a real headache for their revolutionary army.
How did he get here?
"Um?"
Seemingly sensing something, Cass glanced up at the sky but found nothing. He then turned his attention to the surviving civilians.
"The Navy? Anyway, thank you, Navy officers!"
Among the civilians, one who seemed to be the leader stepped forward and bowed to them in gratitude.
"Do you know that these pirates are kept by the local nobles? Their purpose is to harvest your wealth," Donald blurted out.
He's a straightforward person; it's best to explain things upfront.
The leader, who had been all grateful, immediately changed his expression upon hearing this. "Another one! Hey, even if you saved us, you can't slander the nobles! They are good people; they came to comfort us and even gave us food after the pirates robbed us. They are good people, not like what you're saying. You're just like the Revolutionary Army; why do you always slander others!"
"you..."
Donald was about to say something when Cass reached out and shook his head, saying, "There's no need to try to persuade me."
