Meeting...
Kuzan was familiar with this; back in his time in the Navy, there were meetings about it every so often.
But this was the first time he had ever held a meeting like this, conducted in secret, where even the organization's leader was putting on an act.
"Let me elaborate."
Wilbur stood up and said loudly, "Wano Country doesn't receive specific newspapers, but you should have seen that Mr. Clow has ended the era of the Four Emperors. At the same time, I want to make it clear that, thanks to our Number One's planning, Mr. Clow has already taken the position of Shogun of Wano Country. His trip to headquarters for a meeting is also to encourage us to exert our efforts. Before he returns, we will ensure that Mr. Clow secures his position in Wano Country."
Kuzan listened to this and nodded thoughtfully.
He had no doubts about why Kuro didn't handle this himself; he had already made it clear before.
Kuzan knew that Kuro was hiding something; he had hinted at the tattoo before. Kuro clearly knew the meaning of the tattoo, but he pretended not to.
Similarly, if he were to relinquish control of Wano Country, he could simply go to headquarters to report for duty, and then the matter would be no longer his concern. In that case, the World Government would be unable to trace any changes in Wano Country back to him.
Too cautious.
"Regarding the rule of Wano Country, and the remaining pirates and samurai, we've discussed using a more lenient approach. We'll use the Udon area as a prison, dividing these people into groups to see if it's possible to bring them into our cause," Wilbur said.
Cass nodded: "This will be done by those of us in Wano Country. We will select the components and see if they can be incorporated into our cause. This transformation is a long-term project. Do you have any objections?"
“No, but since things have come to this point, could we send people to the vicinity of Wano Country to occupy Kaido’s territory under the guise of pirates and protect Wano Country?” David suggested.
One Piece...
Kuzan paused, then narrowed his eyes.
As expected, those pirates who appeared in Dressrosa in the New World were their pets.
Kuzan had been puzzled before. He had traveled to many places and discovered something amazing: the places ruled by pirates had the same pattern as Dressrosa, and didn't seem like pirate territory at all.
Now that I see it, it's clear they weren't just ordinary pirates.
Is this the third step in the drafting of the outline?
Kuzan thought to himself.
He still remembered the third step: establishing unified laws, reducing taxes for commoners, and standardizing medical care and education, exceeding the living standards of commoners under the rule of those kingdoms in this world, attracting a large number of conscientious and powerful individuals.
Yes, Kuzan acknowledged that those ordinary people lived very well without most of the exorbitant taxes.
This further fueled Kuzan's doubts about the inevitability of the existence of a world government.
People can live better without them...
What is the purpose of a world government?
Force? But Dressrosa and his group were still able to protect the people well in the chaotic new world.
Standard of living? Dressrosa has refined and integrated all the benefits of the conquered regions while discarding the dross. Combined with Dressrosa's own system, it has made the people live in an almost paradise-like environment.
Compared to the islands under the rule of the World Government, whose civilizations are vastly different, it is clearly superior.
"Can."
Kuzan's thoughts were interrupted by Kro's words. He nodded and said, "It's okay for pirates to stay here, but I just found out that you actually keep pirates around."
“It’s not about raising them, it’s just that everyone agrees on the concept of justice,” David said.
"So..."
Wilbur continued, “We have occupied the central position of the new world, and we can use this as a base to send signals to the whole world. We have reached the third step of the draft and are transitioning to the fourth step, but the transition will naturally not be perfect. We still need to hide and proceed steadily.”
"I second that. So, may I proceed?"
Lowe's Den Den Mushi chimed, "I can't wait any longer, David. Send some men to me. I'm going to conquer the Flower Country."
"Are we about to take action? No problem, but we can't give you the Dressrosa army; it's too conspicuous. I'll send the Justice League pirates there. Can the people of Wano Country wait? Let's take over the Flower Country first," David asked.
Wilbur thought for a moment and said, "No problem. There's no rush in Wano Country. The New World is still very chaotic, so it's not suitable to get too involved."
David's Den Den Mushi nodded and said, "As for the four kingdoms of the North Sea, the four kings have already united as one. I propose that we intervene now. I will send the Vinsmoke back to the North Sea to assist the four kingdoms in their conquest."
"Is that believable?" Wilbur frowned. "We've only just subdued them. Judge, that guy, still needs someone to keep an eye on him."
“Send his children; these people are still trustworthy,” David said.
Wilbur then looked at Cass.
Cass thought for a moment and nodded: "It's alright. The Vinsmoke family isn't inherently bad; they just lack emotion. Under my leadership, they've developed it."
Vinsmoke?
Kuzan was taken aback again.
This was the first time he had ever heard that the family in the North Sea had actually been conquered by Dressrosa, and judging from this... they could be trusted?
He also looked at Cass, and then it dawned on him.
This person seems to possess the power to influence people's minds. It's not an ability, but the power of the heart. I heard that his Douglas Marine Corps was stolen from Vinsmoke. If clones can be infected, then cyborgs can certainly be as well.
