Pirates: Beyond Akainu

Chapter 179
As conservatives expected, the new national reform movement encountered resistance from around the world.

The New World Government, which was just on the right track, fell apart in an instant.

The royal family, nobles and wealthy people quickly united and organized an army of more than millions of people to launch a fierce attack on the navy.

A huge war sweeping the world is coming!
This is not the kind of superpower battle in the past where one or two people can control the situation of the battle, but a decisive battle between one class and another class.

The Navy faces this critical situation.

Zefa, who has entered his twilight years, once again showed his iron-blooded skills.

Declare the whole world to enter a state of martial law!Until the war is completely won!

Inside the prison, sympathetic conservatives led by Military Commission member Shitierres were dismissed from all positions of the seven alternate members.

At the same time, a national reform war leadership team was established to temporarily take over all naval command in the world, with Ghost Spider as the team leader and Amanda Roy as the deputy team leader.

Zefa addressed the world’s navies and people all over the world:
"Although the old world government and the Tianlong people were destroyed, the old decadent system that represented the old world government and the Tianlong people did not die with them.

Their existence hinders our progress and prevents us from bringing true fairness and justice to the world.

Yes, now is the great war that Marshal Sakalski once spoke of.

We still convey a belief to the whole world: we fight for justice!Fight for fairness!

I believe that now that all pirates in the world have been wiped out by our righteous navy, all kind-hearted people in the world are facing us.

so!We will definitely win a complete victory!We will show no mercy to the hypocrites on the throne and the vassals around them!Kill them all!
Victory! !
……

……

The Great War described by the Navy was far more tragic than they imagined, and the conservative force they described was far more powerful than they imagined.

Three years later, the war is still not over.

And one stormy night, Chairman Zefa was on his deathbed.

The three extant members of the Supreme Power Military Council, Ghost Spider, Stoloberry, Django, and Roy rushed to the headquarters to see Zefa for the last time.

Hospital bed.

Zefa, who had been fighting for justice all his life, could not say much and only gave a few final instructions.

First: The war of national reform must be completely won!
Second: The ghost spider will temporarily serve as the chairman until the next election.

Second: Add Amanda Roy to the list of five core members of the Military Committee. The other four of you will discuss it and recommend Magellan and Jonathan.

Third: Summon Wang Shuanghu, Haye, Jie Wunuo, and Zeqing, the first-term students of the Iron Blood Military Academy, to be on the list of alternate members.

Then, Zefa died while saying Sakalski's name.

"Teacher Zefa!?"

"Teacher Zefa——!!"

Countless sorrows can never be brought back. Since Sakaski disappeared, the Navy has lost another core figure who can control the overall situation.

That night.

After the military committee held an emergency meeting, the interim chairman, Ghost Spider, and Roy had another secret meeting in the room.

"What do you want to say?"

"Chairman." Roy changed his words directly, and then said sincerely: "The situation has reached the most dangerous moment. If we make a wrong step, our career will be in jeopardy!"

The ghost spider with white hair and old face was shocked, but the situation in the past three years also made him understand that Roy was not innocent.

"I know that too, but..."

"We have a way! At times like this, we must be even tougher!"

Roy looked grim.

"Chairman, you and I have been working for three years, so I will say some things directly."

Ghost Spider nodded.

"Why has the national reform war not ended after three years? In my opinion, we overestimated the people's awareness. The longer it took, the more they forgot our achievements in eliminating pirates. On the contrary, because the education rate was too low, quite a few Foolish people still recognize kingship, or don't care about justice and fairness, as long as they give money, they will go with them."

"On the other hand, our attack area was too large and we overestimated our own strength. Those fish-men, long-hands, and other messy races are extremely disgusted with us dissolving the concept of the country and destroying their king, so they resist to the end .”

"Yes, you are right." Ghost Spider was worried.

Roy continued: "So I suggest dividing and conquering, step by step, first announcing that we will not attack other races, allowing them to govern themselves, and then after we concentrate our efforts to deal with the emperors of mankind, we can then attack other races."

"This is a good suggestion, implement it immediately."

"On the other hand, I think it is necessary to strengthen internal control of our navy, and it is necessary to restore the secret review during the marshal period, especially when Teacher Zefa is dead."

"Chairman, you also know that no one has the same prestige as Sakaski and Zefa. We will definitely have more internal ideas. Commissioner Stierres is a lesson learned from the past. People's ideas will always change."

Ghost Spider frowned, extremely embarrassed.

Seeing this, Roy added: "We must enable more young people to enter the senior management, just like Mr. Zefa promotes the first-term students of the Iron-Blooded Military Academy. No one will doubt the firmness of those people's thoughts. And in the senior management, seniority can no longer be used, such as I strongly do not recommend Generals Magellan and Jonathan to enter the core layer!"

Ghost Spider gritted his teeth and his thoughts were racing. He also agreed to promote more young people like Roy to assist their careers, but he was afraid that he would be too passionate and not have a stable person at the helm and the ship would capsize.

"Who do you want to recommend?"

"Beria, Chairman, you should be very familiar with him. He has worked in the Anti-Corruption Ministry for so many years, and he has made remarkable contributions. There will be nothing wrong with letting him enter the core."

"But he's not even an alternate member! Back then, the marshal also said he couldn't be used anymore."

"Then let him become an alternate member and take your time. In addition, we will do extraordinary things during extraordinary times. I believe that if we arrange it this way, we will definitely end all wars in three years!"

"What are you sure about?"

"Generalissimo, believe me, I have been commanding this war for three years. Do you still remember the fighter jet I mobilized a lot of resources to research? It is about to come out, and we will dominate everything from the air!"

Chairman Ghost Spider thought about it again and again, and finally nodded.

……

……

The war of national reform has been going on for three years. The navy and the King's Allied Forces are fighting to the death for every island and every country.

Dressrosa has become a safe haven in the troubled times, because the Liku royal family and the Lilliputian Dondada royal family announced their unconditional cooperation in all actions of the navy at the beginning of the war.

This made the Liku royal family and the Dongdada royal family the traitors accused by the King's coalition army, and the navy did not cleanse the two royal families but put aside the dispute.

According to folk rumors, this is because the former Princess Rebecca had a close relationship with Roy, a high-ranking navy official, and it was impossible for other royal families to give up their resistance and enjoy the same treatment, so they still killed them all.

Greenbit, a small island north of Dressrosa, is where the Lilliputians live. There are currently five navy warships docked.

The top commander of these five warships is Rear Admiral Haye, a rising star within the navy who has been promoted over the years.

Haye now belongs to the Ninth Army. The commander of the Ninth Army is Geuno. They came here from the frontline war specifically to pick up someone, their former dormitory classmate Ze Qing.

"Didn't that boy Ze Qing graduate No. 1? Has he been staying here for so many years?"

After years of fighting, Haye has grown into a unique general, with a weathered and cold face.

Jiewu Nuo was as innocent as a young boy back then. He replied: "Zeqing is not interested in war and killing people. He never held a post in the army after graduation. Instead, he became a scholar and went to study all over the world."

"Scholar? Interesting." Haye said: "Now the Iron Blood Military Academy has eight graduates and thousands of officers. He, Haye, is probably the only one to become a scholar."

Jiewu Nuo nodded. His main job in these years was clerical work, and he knew very well that Zeqing was the only "deviant".

"But Principal Zefa still misses him. Do you still remember how his name came about? Now that Principal Zefa has passed away, the first thing he did was to promote him to the top, which shows that he is valued very much."

"So asking us to come here specifically to take him back to the headquarters is really a waste of my time. If the frontline military situation is delayed? Who is responsible!?"

Haye was very dissatisfied.

"Calm down, let's go find him quickly. I heard that he came here specifically to study the small humans." Geuno smiled apologetically.

And in the depths of Greenbit's Lilliputian garden, Haye and Jieuno finally found Ze Qing, who now looks like a scholar and is slovenly.

When Zeqing heard that Zefa had passed away, she couldn't control her tears.

"How come? Teacher Zefa, he..."

After the grief, Zeqing chose to go back with Haye and the others.

after one day.

On a naval warship in the vast sea.

Zeqing's emotions have calmed down and he is talking to Hayej Uno.

"Ze Qing, you were the one who sent the marshal to the Valley of Gods to participate in the final battle. Can you tell me more details?" Haye asked.

"I don't have any more details. What I know has been written in the report of the year, and you have all read it at a high level."

"The marshal is really dead?"

Zeqing looked at the sea level in the distance, "Maybe, but that is no longer important. The times are moving forward and will not stop because of anyone."

Haye and Jie Uno were startled. They didn't expect Zeqing to say such outrageous words. Now that the official definition of a marshal is just disappearing, he admitted that it doesn't matter whether the marshal is still there or not.

You know, in the current navy, Sakaski is absolutely right, and no one dares to criticize him.

"Zeqing, don't say this kind of thing when you get to the headquarters, otherwise the acting chairman of the Ghost Spider Committee will be the first to eat you alive." Geuno reminded kindly.

Zeqing smiled elegantly, and his eyes were already shining with the light of wisdom.

"Why are you so eager to know whether the Marshal is dead or not? Especially at this critical moment, you have lost the way forward, so you desperately hope that someone, preferably Sakaski, will come back to show you the way?"

Haye suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of oppression on Zeqing, and he sneered: "Otherwise?"

"Don't expect the marshal to come back, we can be the new marshal."

Zeqing's eyes revealed the light of confidence behind wisdom. He stood up and said:
"The national reform war should be over. According to my observation and analysis, the reason why our navy has been unable to end the war is mainly due to racial issues. Those diverse races still possess superhuman abilities."

Haye, who has been on the front line, felt deeply: "Yes, but what can we do? Sooner or later we will have to face racial issues, and we cannot allow those races to become the privileged class in China."

Zeqing: "What if I said that various other races are about to transform into humans?"

"How is that possible!?" Hayejewuno said in shock.

"It's true. According to my many years of observation and research, since all supernatural forces disappeared, our world seems to have lost a certain magnetic field, and this magnetic field has caused other racial specificities to gradually disappear."

"I recorded with my own eyes that the wings of Sky Island Angels are gradually disappearing, the lifespan of the giants has been decreasing year by year, and the size of newborns is getting smaller and smaller, while the situation of small humans is completely opposite. I even saw a large number of newborn fishmen babies on Fish-Man Island. It can no longer survive underwater, it no longer has the characteristics of a fish but completely resembles a human being, but the royal family of fishmen is hiding this fact."

"There are many examples of this, and every race is changing, so I estimate that in a few decades, all races will eventually become human."

"Really?!" Haye couldn't believe it

Jiewu Nuo believed Zeqing's words and was delighted: "It would be great if this were true. In any case, if the races are different, it will be really difficult to achieve peace."

Zeqing: "I have made all the notes and taken photos about this matter. I will show it to other members of the Military Commission at the headquarters later so that we can adjust our strategy."

"What a great achievement!" Geunuo praised. Even Haye, who had always been unkind to Zeqing, realized that this would be a great achievement.

But Zeqing continued:
"But this alone is still not enough. Even if we can win the national reform war, I am still not very optimistic about the prospects of our cause."

"It's too general to say it's for justice and fairness."

"We lack theoretical support and we lack faith. I can see that when the Marshal was still there, he wanted to do this in the article he wrote in the New Navy News, but he left too early and this was not done. become."

"In this world, most people live unhappy lives. In the past, the reason was because of the pirates who were misbehaving. But what happens after all the pirates are wiped out? Most people are still not happy."

"Now we have targeted the royal family and the nobles and all their lackeys as our enemies. But when we eliminate them and take back the property that belongs to the working people and distribute it to them, will they be happy?"

"I want to see the result. If not, it means that we haven't found the real enemy. We must find it and eliminate the source of unhappiness that hinders most people."

Haye and Geuno gradually couldn't understand what Zeqing said. They only saw Zeqing looking forward firmly, and his eyes even had a bit of the marshal's eyes back then.

Zeqing said: "I will replace the marshal to complete the unfinished business."
