From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 297: Second Enlarged Meeting, Cleansing Operation
At the second enlarged meeting of representatives from all parties, after the revolutionary army mentor pointed out the crux of the problem, all parties had no objection to the proposal to supplement and amend the law.

However, the supplementation and amendment of the law is related to the interests of all parties.

At this time, it was only half a year since the Hundred Nations Revolution. Everyone present was well aware of the darkness under the rule of the World Government, and they strictly adhered to the people-oriented concept.

As the representative of the navy, Zhan Guo also proposed that it would be strictly forbidden to accept any gifts from the people in the future.

Kevin gave some advice on this issue.

The Navy is a force that will spread throughout the world with branches as its bases in the future, and what is needed is not just orders, but ideas.

Therefore, from now on, all naval forces, from top to bottom, need to accept a change in thinking, which means being taught by lecturers.

The base chiefs of each naval branch must pass an ideological assessment before they can take up the position, and combat power requirements can even be put second.

Upon hearing this, Zhan Guo hesitated.

Since the Battle of Marineford, the new navy based on the Revolutionary Army has been established for more than half a year, and the intake of various naval branches has not been assessed due to the change in their positions.

The three moral views vary greatly, and there are many people who bet on the Revolutionary Army to win the War of Marineford.

However, if the base chiefs of each naval branch need to pass an assessment before taking up the position, no matter how it is done, there will inevitably be unrest during such a transition period.

"The Revolutionary Army will not exist forever."

Kevin's voice rang out.

Just this one sentence made the entire conference room silent, and everyone looked over.

The revolutionary army will not exist forever?
What does it mean?
You must know that even the current navy has not been integrated into the revolutionary army, but is only exercising justice and order on the sea based on the navy's concept of justice.

In comparison, the revolutionary army is much stronger than the navy.

At the meeting of all parties, no matter whether it was pirates or the navy, compared to the combat power of the Revolutionary Army, there was no comparison as long as this gentleman was there.

But now the spiritual leader of the revolutionary army himself said that the revolutionary army will not exist forever.

Even Dorag couldn't figure out the meaning of this sentence.

Kevin looked at everyone, and then continued: "Revolution will only occur when the world falls into despair and darkness. And when the darkness is overthrown and the world becomes the bright place you and I hope for, then the revolution will naturally dissipate and become a seed in everyone's heart."

"People's hearts are fickle. As long as the social form exists, there is no way to achieve true equality."

"Relatives, friends, colleagues, favors... People become powerful because of their desires, but because of their desires, they cannot achieve the so-called absolute fairness."

"As such, in fifty or a hundred years, the gap between individuals will inevitably widen. This is something that cannot be changed by individual will."

Kevin exhaled and said, "It is relatively fair. If the upward channels from ordinary people to naval officers and from ordinary people to political officials of a country are stable, then this world is relatively fair and there is no need for revolution."

"The spirit of revolution will be passed down through the records in books, but those who use the name of revolution to satisfy their selfish desires at the cost of blood will never be allowed."

Kevin looked at Sengoku and said, "After the world is truly changed, the power of the Revolutionary Army will be merged into the Navy. So from now on, the Navy must not allow any mistakes in its thinking."

"Otherwise, after truly changing the world, I wouldn't mind replacing the navy from top to bottom."

These words made Zhan Guo's heart tighten.

Replace All...

No, no matter whether the new navy can pass the assessment or not, after the revolutionary army is incorporated, those who do not meet the ideological standards will inevitably be kicked out of the navy.

"I understand."

Zhan Guo agreed.

Kevin continued: "Regarding naval ideology, the scholars of the Revolutionary Army will formulate the naval ideology curriculum based on why we fight, who we fight for, where we come from, and why we become the foundation of the navy."

"Not only the captains and lieutenants at each base, but also the ordinary marines, and the officers, marshals, and staff officers of New Marinford all need to learn."

Zhan Guo nodded: "For the sustainability and purity of the just order, the navy will accept the arrangement of ideological courses."

Then, Kevin looked at Whitebeard, who had been bored for three days.

"Right now, the world hasn't really accepted the concept of an adventure group."

Newgate took a sip of coffee and said, "Sir, there shouldn't be anything about the adventure group at this meeting, right?"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "The promotion of the adventure group system is not just for the purpose of gathering dreamers together, although there is part of the reason."

"People's dreams will never end, and those who dream of going to sea are born with strong will. Chasing their dreams and becoming king is the goal set for them."

"But at the same time... from the Four Seas to the Grand Line, from the first half to the second half of the New World, the Adventure Group also has the responsibility to patrol."

picket?

Whitebeard glared.

Pirates patrolling the navy? No, the adventure group patrolling the navy and the political officials?
This kind of thing seems a little wrong no matter how you look at it!

Kevin nodded and said, "Any law or policy needs people to enforce it, and as long as it is enforced by people, it will inevitably be mixed with human feelings or desires."

"Only by gathering all eight badges from the four seas can one pass the Upside-Down Mountain. Those who cannot strengthen their own will will not be able to gain recognition and obtain the badges."

"And those who pursue their dreams, or those who become kings after competing in the new world, will naturally have the power to make their voices heard and change the world."

"King... all the injustices and problems you encounter along the way can be submitted to the Sky Island Headquarters in an open manner."

"For those who cannot become king, once they obtain evidence during the voyage, the records can serve as a reason for them to take action."

Whitebeard was stunned.

Pirates... can they be so noble?

After registering as an adventure group, a data transmission device will be issued as a record. Is this also in preparation for this proposal?

Kevin then looked at Zhan Guo and said, "The establishment of the adventure group is the responsibility of each naval branch, but as long as the people pass the ideological assessment, there is no threshold."

……

The three-day meeting ended, and the supplementary amendments to the law made another big step forward.

The existence of the law itself is the bottom line of morality, and it was first formulated because the world is so different in comparison.

It is not okay to copy blindly, but the best option is to make supplementary and revised ideas again and again after establishing the basic concept.

There is a huge gap in devil fruits, domineering, and combat power between people, so every aspect needs to be explored.

……

In the lounge at the top of the academy, Vegapunk poured Kevin a cup of coffee, glanced at Dragon, and poured him a cup as well.

However, at this moment, Dorag was still a little absent-minded. He hesitated several times before he could no longer hold back and asked, "Is it too hasty to disband the Revolutionary Army?"

Kevin glanced at him and said, "Why? Are you reluctant to give up your power? As a leader, you are much more powerful than the Admiral of the Navy at the moment."

Hearing this, Drago waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about? If I really cared about power, I wouldn't have formed the Self-Defense Forces in the first place."

"But...if the Revolutionary Army disbands, we won't be able to control the direction in which this world will move forward."

Vegapunk frowned when he heard this: "Sir...if someone..."

Kevin raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I know."

"After the Revolutionary Army was merged into the Navy, the Navy became the Revolutionary Army."

After the words fell, Dragon and Vegapunk looked at each other.

Yes, with the current size of the revolutionary army, if it is incorporated into the navy to manage the security issues of various island countries and waterways, then the navy itself will be the revolutionary army.

"Now that the world government exists, the people are aware of the darkness of the past and naturally know whose lives we need to overthrow."

Kevin exhaled: "But after this, because of the independence of individuals, differentiation is bound to exist. The world will never be absolutely fair, because such a world will only limit the development of individuals."

"But if this happens, the revolution will become an excuse for some people to fulfill their desires, and the world will once again enter turmoil."

"Relatively fair and with smooth channels for advancement, this is the limit of what a foolish person like me can think of. It may not be the truth, but there is room for improvement."

Kevin continued, "In fact, the action of enlightening people is not only teaching them to think, but also subtly conveying the bottom line of morality. If we curb the development of evil, then good will still be the majority in this world."

"In this way, in this world where will represents the source of power, evil will not be able to rise. People with correct values ​​will be the majority, and the strong will naturally be the majority as well."

"And when darkness really does reappear and the evil dragon once again claims to be a god, revolution will naturally occur."

……

One month after the enlarged meeting, the Revolutionary Army action teams took action in 356 islands and towns in the areas liberated by the Revolutionary Army, and arrested a large number of corrupt people by exchanging tasks for areas.

The Kingdom of North Sea Zelsey, Luo had mixed feelings when he set foot in this country again.

He and Adrian had just been questioned three days ago, and that day they met many people they used to be familiar with.

There were more than twenty doctors coming out of Feilevance, but they couldn't say a word.

Everyone was put into different rooms, and no one but a pacifist asked questions.

Under the condition that there is no resistance by force, privacy is ensured from being prying into, and no one can escape the punishment of the law.

Then a series of people were dragged out from top to bottom, including the base chief of the naval branch, the person in charge of logistics and transportation of the Revolutionary Army, or the relevant personnel in charge of material applications of the Revolutionary Army, and the contracted merchants.

The charges were tried in public and then judged by the Government Hall.

Those who are detained are detained, and those who are executed are executed.

During this month, there were very few problems within the revolutionary army. Even among the personnel responsible for applying for and operating supplies, it seemed that 90% of them only received some fruit specialties.

Those who loved drinking received some wine, but only two of them asked for money directly.

The new navy had the most problems, and even the officers in the navy headquarters had problems.

The Kingdom of Jersey, should now be called the Island of Jersey...

In prison, Luo and Adrian met Pelos.

"boom!"

The cell door banged loudly, and Pelos, with dishevelled hair and a dirty face, stared at the two men intently.

"You! It must be you! Did you report me? Was it you?" "Asshole! You bastard!"

"I didn't forget about the good things I did for you, but you two dogs reported me as soon as you smashed the door! Ptah!"

"Bang bang bang..."

The cell bars were banging against each other and the people inside had gone crazy.

Luo shook his head slightly: "It's not us."

Adrian frowned. "If it were us, we wouldn't come to see you at this time! We were just questioned three days ago. Anyone who can come here at this time wouldn't collude with you. Don't you understand this?"

Hearing this, Pelos was stunned for a moment, then fell to the ground.

But he suddenly seemed to remember something, stood up and grabbed the prison cell again.

“Luo…Luo! Please…please save me. Now…now only you can save me.”

Luo asked in a daze: "Me? How can I save you? No one can violate the law. Because this time it is supplemented and revised, the degree of punishment has been relaxed a lot."

"gentlemen!"

Perros said loudly: "You are different! You were the only one who stood up at that time. Among all the survivors of Ferefance, you were the only one who was favored by the gentleman!"

"Go find the gentleman! As long as you ask, as long as the gentleman agrees, I can go out right away!"

"Please! Luo, I held you in my arms when you were born, and I also went to your house with gifts. And little Rami, at that time I tried to treat little Rami... you know!"

"Your fruit ability, the hidden danger that Mr. mentioned at that time... As long as you can..."

"shut up!"

Adrian's roar interrupted it.

At this time, several inmates from other cells were also leaning on the cell bars, staring at this place, wanting to hear whether Pelos could be saved.

They were able to be imprisoned here, so naturally each of them has some complicated network of relationships.

People who came from the Government Affairs Department used to have their own captains, and above them there were army commanders.

Even through communication with the army commander, the person who once served as the commander of the Eastern Army could be contacted.

And that person, to some extent, can be said to be the gentleman's adoptive mother.

"What do you want Luo to agree to? What do you want to expose? Everyone from Freifans is so tight-lipped. What do you want to say now?!"

Enraged, Adrian punched the cell bar, causing Pelos to fall to the ground.

"You still have the nerve to mention Freifans?"

Adrian looked at him angrily. "Have you forgotten those dark months? Those patients who were lying in hospital beds and in desperate need of special medicines died because you took their places and traded them to other people. You really don't remember your past self?"

"During those months, all the survivors in Flevance were waiting to die. They waited with hope every morning, but in the end they were met with despair again and again!"

"How similar! How can you...how can you remain indifferent?"

"At that time, all of us were not accepted because of platinum-lead disease, and the surrounding countries also imposed a blockade on us, and even went straight into massacres!"

"The revolutionary army saved us. They saved us despite the fear of platinum disease and the enemy's attacks."

"The old dean's identity was discovered by CP agents. He exposed himself immediately after returning the patient to his office for follow-up treatment. He did this so that the world could have light! He wanted the world to no longer have the despair of Freifans in the past!"

"And you... a dirty person like you has already lost the spirit of Freifans!"

The roar echoed in the prison, deafening.

Pelos fell to the ground, tears streaming down his face.

He hadn’t thought about it… He really hadn’t thought about it…

At this moment, recalling Freifans's past and the fear of execution, he cried and wailed bitterly.

However, Adrian took Luo and left without looking back.

But the words he left behind were recorded.

The spirit of Freifans...

At the time of the execution, the words just spoken will be excerpted and repeated.

The teacher said that the law is only the bottom line of morality, not the upper limit.

It is better to restrain people with spirit than with law. The spirit of Freifans may become the spirit of doctors in the future.

……

At the same time, upside down at the foot of the mountain New Marinford.

In the Admiral's office of the Navy Headquarters, Zhan Guo had been so angry that he hadn't eaten anything for two days.

Since the meeting, the addition and amendment of the laws have begun to be implemented, and the Revolutionary Army has also cooperated with the Navy in the entire capture operation.

In just one month, 356 countries and islands in the liberated area were found to have committed crimes, and 70% of those found guilty were from the navy.

Not only the base commanders of the subordinate naval branches, but also those with combat power ranging from major general to vice admiral in the naval headquarters.

Before the facts came out, even though he agreed to the revolutionary army scholars' suggestions on the assessment of the navy's ideological courses at the meeting, he did not expect that the problems in the navy would be so big.

"Oh!"

He slapped his hand on the desk and asked the signalman, "Have the base commanders of each branch and the officers of the headquarters arrived?"

The communications officer stood straight, saluted, and replied, "The notice was issued a week ago, and now everyone has gathered at the headquarters. Marshal, the meeting will start in an hour."

Sengoku stood up and exhaled.

Obviously, he was so ashamed and angry that he even wanted to scold them right now.

"Dong dong dong."

The door of the office was pushed open, and the headquarters' chief of staff, Tsuru, and Garp, who had been promoted to admiral, walked in, followed by Borsalino and Kuzan.

As soon as he entered the room, Borsalino glanced at the broken desk, then looked at his nose, mouth and heart, and remained silent.

Kuzan, who came in last, scratched his head and said, "There are a lot of things going on in the New World. If we gather so many people back at this time, there will be problems there..."

"Humph."

Zhan Guo snorted coldly: "Don't worry about it, the First Division of the New World Revolutionary Army will be keeping an eye on it, as well as the first half of the Grand Line and the Four Seas."

"If we continue to leave it alone, the entire navy will soon be rotten! More than 70% of the people arrested after the amendment of the law are from the navy! Do you still have the nerve to do this?"

After the words fell, Kuzan spread his hands and replied: "We are not in any problem. The allowance is high enough and there is no place to spend the money. Greed and ambition must pay the price. It is normal to be arrested."

"Both Borsalino and I have accepted your explanation of ideas. We know our responsibilities and what we are fighting for..."

Borsalino, who was named, tensed up as he was about to eat the melon, and turned around to glare at Kuzan.

However, facing the gazes of the Chief of Staff Crane and the Marshal, he still spoke: "The navy during the World Government's rule was full of problems, big and small. The communication between the headquarters and the various branches was cumbersome, and the supervision of various sea areas was not strong enough, so naturally there were good and bad people inside."

Zhan Guo sighed: "But I really didn't expect there would be so many... even the headquarters..."

He said, "The ideological assessment mentioned in the previous call is inevitable. Eliminating a group of people this time may not be a bad thing."

Zhan Guo hesitated.

"The headquarters has a Lieutenant General-level combat force... In addition, there are Rear Admirals and Colonels. These are the backbone of the Navy. If we eliminate them all..."

He shook his head slightly: "Three hundred and fifty-six islands and countries are a lot, but compared to the entire world in the past, even if we only accept a part of the original navy, we still have excess combat power."

"In the East China Sea Navy branch, the captain of the branch used to be the base commander, but now he is the commodore of the headquarters."

Garp on the side said, "Although the allowance has increased significantly, a base commander could make more money in the past. Humph... In order to maintain the extravagant state of the past, all they can do is find loopholes."

Garp looked at Sengoku and said, "When it comes to the enforcement of the law, that gentleman is never merciful."

The last sentence made Zhan Guo sigh.

The law was initiated by that gentleman from its initial formulation to its first supplement and amendment.

It can even be said that its importance is above all else.

Not to mention the combat power of the vice admiral level, even the sons and daughters of the BiGMOM Pirates, Katakuri, who has mastered the Observation Haki who has foreseen the future, was directly rejected by the master because of his previous actions to destroy a country.

If he hadn't taken the opportunity to run away quickly, he would probably have been executed by now.

"In fact, I can also imagine why that gentleman did this."

He said in a deep voice: "The World Government still rules most countries and islands. In this situation, curbing evil and developing good is for the future."

"In short, I think it is urgent to make the navy understand the meaning of justice and their own significance."

Hearing this, Zhan Guo stood up.

"Then let's get started. I'll get tired of scolding you guys, calm down, and then I'll tell you about the ideological class assessment."

……

At the same time, the cheers of the people in the liberated areas were deafening.

The liberation of thought and the enlightenment of wisdom were only in the initial stage. The process of the public trial was watched by everyone, and no one had an attitude of indifference.

The charges and causes and consequences were made public, which made everyone feel the meaning of justice.

In particular, the problems that occurred in various hospitals were disclosed, which made people more aware of the importance of fairness.

……

Meanwhile, in the North Sea, the CP agents who had been monitoring Trafalgar Law still hadn't found an opportunity to strike successfully.

The ability of the surgery fruit to replace space made them feel very difficult.

If they failed, they would most likely face the cloaked man.
