I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King

The Kingdom of Gareth is a feudal aristocracy.

The old king divided the court nobles and the territorial nobles. The court nobles owned the property of the city, while the territorial nobles owned the fiefdom outside the city. In the fiefdom, these nobles were local tyrants.

The 100,000 troops that Lily killed with 5,000 people were all formed by these nobles. The army was gone, but the nobles were still there.

Sag couldn't let these termites steal his ruling power.

He captured the entire kingdom, not a single city.

"I understand." Lily nodded.

She could make a plan for what Sag wanted, and she didn't have to worry too much about supplies.

This place is a major transportation route. The end of the war will allow many people to pass through here. Those merchants can't help but make money, and a large amount of supplies will definitely flow here.

As for money.

That's easy to deal with, they are pirates.

"There are about 2,000 new guys?" Sag asked.

"2,213." Lily replied.

"Use these people to deal with those nobles."

Sage smiled and said, "If those nobles want to surrender, they must hand over all their ruling rights, and the land must be taken back. All the land in this kingdom belongs to only one person, that is me!"

Landlords, of course, are the owners of the land.

Minerals, farmland, buildings. They all belong to him!

The nobles in the territory are easy to deal with. After killing them, the land belongs to him. The people in the city are also easy to deal with. Anyway, he is a pirate. Now that he has occupied the country, the whole country belongs to him.

And this also needs to be rebuilt. Rebuilding means that Sager spends money. Since he has spent money, of course it belongs to him.

All the industries are nothing more than changing the owner, changing the only owner.

……

The action of clearing out the nobles is not that difficult. People on the sea only treat the nobles preferentially out of respect for their bloodline. For example, even if the king is so cruel that he doesn't care about the lives of civilians, and then the civilians rebel, they just catch him and persuade the king to treat the people well.

Yes, it's so magical.

But Sager doesn't have much respect. He is still a pirate.

Except for Augustinburg, all other larger towns have no walls, such as Flegel, the big town on the secondary island of Timadon, and Michelle, the mountain town on the main island of Gareth, which are all large towns without walls.

As for the nobles, they had already consumed their raised warriors in the previous recruitment, and the little force they could squeeze out now could not stop Sager's pace at all.

Michelle, the mountain town, was crying and shouting at this time.

Of course, it was limited to the places where the nobles lived. The pirates rushed in, carried out a large amount of supplies and wealth, and dragged out the nobles living there.

The biggest noble here was Nikefokas, the family of Tihana.

Among the people dragged out, there was also a girl with silver hair, who raised her head stubbornly and stared at Lily standing in front of her, as if she wanted to remember her.

Around her, there were corpses.

"Kill them." Lily waved her hand, with no sadness or joy in her eyes.

It has been half a month since the action was confirmed. Lily killed all the nobles from Augustinburg to Michelle. This is just one of them.

"That."

Sever, who followed behind, endured for half a month and could no longer bear it. "Some nobles did nothing. Can we just rob their wealth and let them become civilians? The boss also acquiesced."

Sever had no good feelings for the nobles. In fact, he didn't care about anything, but he couldn't be too indifferent.

Even people like him felt that Lily was a bit radical.

"Sage is Sage. He can not care. It is also okay to deal with problems when they encounter them. But what we have to do is to make sure that Sage will never be exposed to these problems."

Lily glanced at Sever and said coldly: "Maybe some people are innocent, but the right to rule has nothing to do with innocence."

She didn't want to kill people.

She was a pirate, not a murderer.

But there were some things she had to see clearly, just like herself. The princess of Oikot was wandering outside. Whether she had any thoughts or not, it was a signal in itself.

If she had not been a princess at that time, she would not even be wanted and would have been killed long ago, not to mention meeting Sage.

For the nobles, there is a possibility of such a reversal, even if it is very small, what she has to do is to completely kill this possibility.

"How these people live is not important to us, but it is very important for them to die!"

Lily looked at the civilians who closed their doors and windows in the distance and watched secretly through a little gap.

"We just chose one side."

If Sage ruled alone, he would not oppress the civilians. On the contrary, these people would live better.

The price paid for a win-win situation is nothing more than the demise of the nobles.

"But this will affect our reputation." Sif pursed his lips.

The words were not finished, but the meaning was clear.

Originally, they were outsiders, without any bloodline or ruling power, and Sage was just a pirate. It was difficult to kill so many nobles now, and no one even surrendered, so no one would recognize him.

"It doesn't matter. Sarge doesn't need their loyalty, he just needs them to do things."

Lily said: "And... not enough people were killed. If we kill more, it will be fine."

"There are great scholars who will debate the scriptures for me!"

Inside the palace, Sage stood on the balcony, overlooking most of Augustine, laughing.

Behind him stood Hawkins and the newly surrendered Misty.

After Misty recovered, she wanted to resist, but Sage's words dispelled her idea.

"The kingdom will not be worse than the nobles under my rule. They only need to pay taxes to me. You are also a commoner, so why not follow me and take a good look. If you have any ideas, I will not stop you."

But Sage, who stretched out his hand, was full of contempt for the nobles and his amazing courage between the lines.

She could not trust Sage, but she trusted Sif. The two knew each other. Although that guy was a bit dissolute, he had a good eye for people. Since he had surrendered, Misty thought. She could take a look.

Because she herself was not very interested in the nobles, the reason she agreed to Tihana was not only because she knew Tihana, but also because she believed that Tihana would treat the country well after occupying the throne.

She is a typical civilian.

But now she is a little worried, and the problem she is worried about was also said by the blond man.

The killing is too cruel.

Den Den Mushi will pass on information every day. Everyone knows the Seven Warlords of the Sea Moria and he is very famous. Now he is clearing out the nobles in Timaton. There are not so many nobles in the territory there. Most of them are military families, so the response is not great.

But Gareth on the main island is the base camp of the nobles in the territory. Every town and village is ruled by a noble. The news in the Den Den Mushi is shocking.

To exaggerate, Lily has been walking all the way with blood on her feet every step.

Not only does she feel it is inappropriate, Hawkins is also worried. If no one recognizes it, will Sag's rule be in name only?

Then he said those words.

Sag knew what Lily did. He said that if the nobles surrendered, he could let them go, but Lily insisted on doing it, and Sag would not say anything.

He doesn't care about this kind of thing.

"Old Ho, do you know why Kaido can't get the ruling power in Wano Country? He clearly supported a puppet, but he was still cursed." Sager turned around and asked.

Hawkins shook his head.

He didn't quite understand what Sager said about the great scholar and the debate, but he could roughly understand the meaning.

As for Kaido

Who knows.

He just knew that Kaido was the Four Emperors.

"Because of fear."

Sage showed a mouthful of white teeth, "The geographical conditions of Wano Country are most suitable for ruling. Just kill all the guys with the right to rule, and then give the civilians normal treatment."

"Obviously, he has the strength of the first in the sea, but he has to support a puppet and let him mess up Wano Country. As a result, he is still alive and hated by the people below, so he is destined not to get the right to rule."

"No matter how strong he is, he still respects the royal power and bloodline, and will not easily occupy the highest position. But I am different."

Sage looked forward and stared at the ruins of Augustine, "I am never afraid."

Kaido should not be afraid. He can do everything that Sage can do.

But he didn't do it. Sage didn't know what he was doing, but there must be a fear factor.

What he feared was not strength, not resistance, but what was rooted in his heart.

Sage would not be afraid, just like he was not afraid of anything on the first day he was born.

"I came here for two words. Rule, rule, and fucking rule!"

Sage shouted: "Kill the nobles. For this place, everything is in a state of reconstruction. Those who are capable can make their own way here. How much they get is all their ability. I will pay them a lot. The only thing to do is."

He opened his hands and said to the people who had already started to rebuild: "Obey my rule and be loyal to me, then you can get everything. I will give you wealth and status in person! Hahaha, hahahaha!"

The sky-high domineering color swept into a black and red torrent, radiating out without scruples in the front, covering the sky above the entire city. Those people raised their heads one after another. Some were in fear, while some people had different thoughts in their eyes.

Reconstruction has also been half a month. Sage did what he said and paid money for doing things. This money was enough to support the whole family, even more than before Sage came.

Because the tax was low.

Of course, the landlords have to collect rent, and if it is put on people, it means collecting taxes.

But it is not like before. In the past, they had to pay a lot of taxes. In addition to the basic head tax and land tax, they had to pay forest tax when buying firewood, because the forest belonged to the nobles, not to them.

Raising poultry required livestock tax, and even if they had no money, they had to pay some eggs and poultry.

Commoners had no right to make bread, and they had to pay market tax when buying bread. Those who wanted to make it themselves had to pay a tax for using the mill and the bakery in addition to their own food, and then pay a market tax.

Commoners under the nobles had to pay a moving tax if they wanted to move to other places.

Marriage tax was paid for marriage, inheritance tax was paid for inheritance when the house was inherited after death, and transportation tax was paid for transportation. Even the windows of the house had to be charged a window opening tax, or the windows were sealed, but the materials used for sealing also had to pay a material tax.

In other words, Augustinburg was a major transportation route, with developed commerce, and the living standards of the common people were very high. Even so, they were just barely surviving.

Those glamorous guys always belong to what you can see, and what you can't see is the foundation like the vast ocean.

A bunch of poor people!

Sager has no interest in poor people, so he exempted them all with a wave of his hand!

He also issued a decree in the city, as long as you acknowledge that the land is his, and then pay taxes according to your income.

Those with a salary of less than 50,000 Baileys only pay 5%, those with a salary of no more than 100,000 Baileys only pay 7%, those with a salary of no more than 200,000 Baileys pay 10%, and those with a salary of no more than 300,000 Baileys pay 20%. If it exceeds this number, he will pay half.

Guys with an annual income of more than 3 million Baileys are definitely rich people.

As for the industry, the city is being rebuilt now, and there is not much industry, but there are some things to say first. Sager allows everyone to come here to do business, but the premise is that these industries must be recognized as belonging to him.

He can not participate in management, but when he has a request, then these industries need to serve him at the first time.

And this kind of thing is commonplace for ordinary people.

They were originally willing to serve the nobles, and they were not dissatisfied at all. Instead, they were excited and ecstatic because of the tax exemption of Sager.

Without those heavy taxes, even though the house was destroyed now, they made more money than before.

As for the fact that this person is a pirate now, some people don't care anymore.

Master Sa is good to them!
