"Execution."

Amid the cheers, Sager pressed his hand and gave the order.

Bang, bang, bang!

The men of the Calamity Pirates, who had been prepared for a long time, all pulled the trigger, and the lead bullets shot out, knocking down a group of people first, and then the sound rang again, and another group of people fell down.

Just like cutting wheat, the crowds of people in this open space fell to the ground in groups, and the blood instantly dyed the ground red. The entire ground created by Qiang Baru was covered with blood like a river.

Five thousand people, as a number, does not seem to be a lot.

But when they actually appeared in front of them, it was a sea of ​​people.

Being collectively shot would also give people a sense of shock.

The three leaders, Orochi, Momonosuke, and Yamato, were tied up by seastone and could not move. They were knocked down by lead bullets and fell in a pool of blood.

But for the onlookers, there were too many people to be executed, and they were all the same when mixed together. No matter how special they were, they would become mediocre after falling down.

"Execution by cannon!"

After the guns were fired, Sager gave another order, and the men who were executed first retreated, revealing the people who pushed the cannons out from the back.

Boom!

The cannons roared, and the cannonballs rained down around the people lying in the pool of blood, blowing out clouds of gunpowder.

The people who had originally left intact bodies were blown apart one by one under these cannonballs, either torn into pieces or with broken torsos, mixed together, and became a pile of broken arms and corpses.

There is no way, execution is to execute, to ensure that people die.

But in this world with high blood volume per capita, one shot may not kill people, especially some strong people.

It's okay to shoot one person, if one shot doesn't guarantee death, you can shoot more.

But there are five thousand people mixed together, you can't shoot them one by one after the shooting, it's too troublesome.

But if you don't do this, if there are too many people, there may be some who slip through the net.

So it's better to shoot them first and then use cannons to bombard them.

Cannons, that is, guns with larger calibers, are used in the same way, but with a larger range.

The cannon fired for a long time until the flesh and blood inside were all mixed together and piled up, and then it stopped.

The smoke made it difficult for ordinary people to see the situation inside. Sager felt it carefully for a while, looked into the smoke again, and waved his hand and said, "Qiang Baru."

Qiang Baru, who was integrated into the ground, rose into a huge stone man. The stones he drove were like huge waves, rushing towards the square filled with smoke, burying all the bodies and forming a large tombstone.

The people died, but they did not disappear.

Just leave a monument here to let others see what happened in this country.

It also warns those guys who are still unwilling to give up. Five thousand people did not succeed. If they do not exceed this number, they should not think about rebellion.

And if they exceed this number

, there is no such problem.

"Done."

Sage stood up and said to the live broadcast of Den Den Mushi: "From now on, you are part of my rule! Then, I will announce it first."

He opened his hands and laughed: "Let's have a banquet here first! Hahahaha!"

After winning, of course we have to have a banquet.

This is not just a victory of conquering a country, this is defeating Kaido and completing his plan.

A rare victory requires a banquet to show his victory!

"Lily, call the others, and have a big one to celebrate my unification of the first half of the New World. The stationed subordinates on various islands sent representatives. Also call Katakuri and ask him to send some representatives. The rest of the synchronous banquet, all expenses"

Sage grinned: "I, Mr. Sa, will pay for it! Another banquet of the whole territory!"

Lily showed an expected expression and said: "I will arrange it now."

Holding a banquet is inevitable.

And, Saage is justified.

At that time, the whole country was bankrupted by the banquet, but Sager didn't care. Now that he has robbed Tezoro, he will definitely hold another big banquet with so much money.

It is also a disguised way to stimulate consumption.

There is nothing good to live in the Flower City except the castle tower, but the castle tower has been destroyed. Sager is not satisfied with other places. After thinking about it, he decided to go back to the ship to settle down.

On the way back, Renidia couldn't help asking: "Sage, why don't you leave the ability users? Some fruits are still fantasy beasts, we can take them to Teach."

Three fantasy beasts, and some other ability users, if all are collected and distributed to the subordinates, it can increase a lot of combat power.

"Why?" Sager sneered, "Lily, what do you think?"

"We are in a dangerous partnership, not a vassal master and servant. There are some things that Teach can't do."

Lily replied: "Last time, Link's incident had already shown signs."

"That's right."

Sage said: "Three mythical beasts, no, it should be two. The peach dragon is a replica and a failure. Although I don't know why it retains the same ability as Kaido, there must be a problem. Moreover, whether it can be extracted is another matter."

The Dark Dark Fruit extracts the demon that resides in it, the ability, and the will.

But where does the will and demon come from if it is artificially created?

"The other two are of the Mythical Beast type. Teach has gone through so much trouble to hunt down the ability users but has not been able to find a good fruit. Last time I asked him to draw a Gold-Gold Fruit, he already wanted to steal it. If it weren't for the fact that the Gold-Gold Fruit is not very powerful, I guarantee that he would have turned against me at that time."

"Now two Mythical Beast types, if eaten by a qualified person, will be a huge combat power, plus that guy Kuzan. At that time, will it increase my combat power or make wedding clothes for him?"

This matter had already shown signs when Link went to become the Gold-Gold Fruit ability user.

Although the Gold-Gold Fruit cannot create gold out of thin air, this fruit in Tezoro's hands did make him the richest man before Sage became rich.

That fruit represents money.

When Link came back, he described the details. At that time, Shiryu and Bashas had already blatantly said that they would take the ability directly and turn against Sage.

But in the end, Teach still gave the ability to Link.

Because although money is important, this fruit also needs people with business talent to use it. From the perspective of combat power, its combat power is not very strong.

But the mythical beast is different.

It is a more precious fruit than the natural type.

Or two!

If it were ordinary superhuman type and animal type, or even some not-so-good natural type, Teach might still help, but two mythical beast type

When Teach saw Orochi and Yamato, the probability of backstabbing on the spot was greater than obediently extracting power for him.

"Letty, when you think about things, you have to think about it comprehensively. That guy just cooperated with me because of common interests. He used me to block Red Hair and share the pressure of encroaching on Whitebeard's territory. Similarly, I also used him to block Red Hair and share the turmoil caused in the second half of the New World."

Sage took out a cigar and bit it in his mouth. Seeing this, Lily took out a lighter and lit it for him.

"Huh"

After exhaling the smoke, Sag looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "But in the face of greater interests, this interest can be broken, especially. We are still pirates, traditional pirates."

Sag doesn't even have the tradition of Teach, because Sag's main business now is a landlord, while Teach is a pure traditional pirate from beginning to end.

The interests of traditional pirates are greater than the covenant.

His power is not small.

"As for why it is dangerous, it can be seen before. I don't know if you can sense it, but I can sense it."

"Red hair."

Before Sag finished speaking, Lily took over and said: "I thought it was the aftermath of your battle, but I didn't expect it to be true. There is indeed an unusual domineering aura."

A correct version of the book in 1619!

Sag chuckled, "Very good, Lily. That's right, that guy did show up, probably to keep his destined son."

He hadn't chased him out at that time, but he sensed it, but he didn't care much at that time. If he beat one, he would beat two, and if he beat three, he would still beat them.

At that time, he was in a state of full Dominance Haki. It cannot be said that he had Dominance Haki resonance, but his sensitivity to Dominance Haki was indeed much more sensitive than in normal state.

However, Red Hair did not catch up in the end, and Sage would not be bored to find trouble with him.

There was no benefit at all.

The territory in the first half now has a claim, but it has not been completely digested. After defeating Kaido and Nika, he will fight Red Hair again. He does not have the physical strength now.

"But that guy is here, which means that Teach is not watching, or does not want to watch at all. He has his plan, and I have my plan. Now, this alliance is already in a fragile state."

How could an ambitious guy not take action while the world is in chaos.

It is not only Sage's invasion of Kaido on the sea, the World Conference has also made many decisions.

The cancellation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is a kind of chaos in itself.

...

Wano Country fell into a brief tranquility, and it was also like a dangerous place that was about to explode. Any spark would explode.

Because the country was founded.

After the execution of the rebels, a large amount of supplies were transferred to Wano Country within a few days after Sage announced the banquet.

In addition to going up from the Koi Waterfall, Wano Country has a very deep cave hidden by the waterfall at the back. It is necessary to manually control the waterfall from above, enter the cave and reach the end, and then lift the boat up to the port on the land of Wano Country.

That is, the submerged port.

This place is of course controlled by Sage.

In addition to being deserted at the beginning, a large number of ships appeared in the submerged port and arrived at the sea surface of Wano Country, and Sage did not prohibit the people of Wano Country from moving around, resulting in many people seeing ships they had never seen in their lives, and goods brought down from the ships that they had never seen before.

Of course, there are more large amounts of food.

This part, Sage directly distributes.

First of all, he will make people full. You can't just draw a big pie for people. People who are almost starving to death, Sage doesn't even want to rule.

He is a prosperous landlord, not a beggar king in the slums.

Eat first, and then raise your spirit.

For the people of Wano, it was a blessing from heaven. The white-haired man who said in the magical picture that he would feed them actually kept his promise!

The Beasts Pirates that existed here distributed food to every household, and even the samurai masters distributed food and clean water so that they would no longer suffer from hunger.

After eating and drinking, they looked at the samurai masters with a kind look.

As for the pirates,

they didn't know what pirates were, but

they seemed to be very kind!

Is this what some people sometimes say about 'founding a country'?

That's too good!

Some families who were almost starving to death could not help but run to the port after being successfully rescued by food, and were grateful to those ships, especially the huge black ship that was docked. The black ship with the white-haired kind-hearted master was worshiped.

In just a few days, the wind direction began to change. Some geishas even compiled it into a ballad and story, singing it all over the streets and alleys. The song was called.

"The Black Ship Founding a Country."

In the captain's room, Lily talked about what she had seen and heard in the past few days, and said: "In a few days, the wind direction began to change. Sure enough, my guess was right."

At this time, Sager was leaning back on the Qingshamu throne, with one foot on the table. Hearing this, he waved his hand, and Lily took out a bottle of wine and filled his gemstone wine glass.

Sage took a sip and smiled, "Guess what?"

"Division."

Lily said, "This country is extremely divided. It is governed by nobles and warriors. There are no civilians. Civilians are not even numbers. No one will care about them. The purpose of their survival is to pay taxes, and the tax rate is extremely high."

Sage's taxes are based on per capita income. Each level has its own tax, as well as taxes on doing business. To be honest, he felt that the business tax was a bit high at first, but then he saw that everyone around him was grateful, so he just implemented it.

From then on, he understood that the high or low tax rate he set had nothing to do with him, but with neighboring countries.

When O'Hara was still Gareth, it was a country that even had window taxes and shoe taxes, but no one thought it was strange. They just felt that they deserved it if they couldn't pay the taxes.

But Wano Country.

"Eight officials and two civilians, nine out of ten taxes are collected."

Lily said: "This is the tax rate for farmers and merchants. I have inquired carefully. This tax rate has been the same not only during the Great Snake period, but also for many years. It has never changed. The Great Snake has only caused pollution and captured labor, making people go from barely eating to not being able to eat."

"With this tax rate, farmers have to pay 80% of what they grow, leaving only 20%. Merchants have to pay 90% of the profits they earn. So the merchants here are basically handicraftsmen. Except for the big merchant groups of samurai and nobles, none of them can be called "large-scale."

The real merchants are the subordinates of the nobles, and those civilian merchants can only be regarded as tinkering with their own hands for a long time and selling them to make a living. Their status is similar to that of farmers.

And the split part is also here.

That is, civilians don't know what pirates are, nor do they know what invasion is.

They only know that pirates are coming and they can eat.

When the Great Snake comes, they are still starving.

As for what country, what invasion.

That is the idea of ​​a minority, the idea of ​​the nobles, even many samurai do not have it.

The samurai just follow the nobles, rarely have personal consciousness, and have no ruling power, so it is easy to split.

As for the more numerous civilians.

They know nothing.

You can't expect a person who can't even get enough food under a harsh rule to protect his homeland. And they don't even have a homeland, they are just a stinky tax-paying appendage.

Such a country is too easy to control!
