One Piece: Get the power of the Titans at the beginning!
Chapter 540: The Navy's Choice
"Victory in the battle is now at hand. As long as the World Government is overthrown, the civilians on the sea will no longer be exploited by the Heavenly Sutra."
"People will truly be treated fairly and justly, there will be no more slaves, and everyone will live and work in peace and contentment."
"..."
Long's speech reminded some already shaken naval soldiers of what they had done for the World Government over the years, and they all put down their weapons.
But there were still some stubborn naval soldiers who held their weapons and stared at the dragon not far away.
For them, it is only after joining the navy that they can have such a life, strip off the slave coat on themselves and reach the pinnacle of life.
Even if they have to serve as dogs for the Celestial Dragons, they are willing to do so. At least this way they won't starve to death on the streets.
The most important thing is that after joining the revolutionary army, you will have to participate in the battle, and you might die in some unknown corner. It is equivalent to taking everything you have now to make a grand gamble. If you win, you have everything, but if you lose, you will have nothing.
"That's right. If you continue to serve the World Government as a dog, you will not end up well."
At this moment, a naval soldier suddenly stood up and spoke to the navy present with righteous indignation.
"My uncle's uncle was shot to death by a Tianlong because he didn't look at him on the road. We don't even know where his body was taken afterward."
"Yes, yes, me too."
This sentence resonated with people, and more and more soldiers stood up.
"I was born in the Kingdom of Skaia, which was not originally a member of the World Government."
"But in order to get the Kingdom of Skaia to join, the World Government sent many agents to secretly kill the king and several princes."
"Under the hegemony, we were forced to join the World Government. Over the years, we have been supplying Heavenly Gold to the World Government. However, the burden of Heavenly Gold has long exceeded the Kingdom's capacity."
"But if we don't hand it over, the World Government will threaten to turn the Kingdom into a hunting ground, forcing the people to be oppressed wantonly, leaving the local people with no money to buy daily necessities and forcing them to go to sea."
"Even if you set up a merchant caravan on the sea, if you are seen by the navy and the world government, you will be exploited layer by layer and you will not be able to make any money at all. You will be forced to go out to sea as a navy or a pirate and live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife."
. . .
Another navy soldier came out and told his own story.
These are actually soldiers arranged by Long.
The purpose is to play the emotional card and let these sailors know who they are fighting for, their hometown, their loved ones and the current world situation.
There are still many low-level soldiers in the navy who retain a glimmer of justice, and they are not as firmly controlled by the World Government as the middle and high-level soldiers. Therefore, the lower the soldiers are, the easier it is to shake their beliefs.
"The Navy is the representative of justice on this ocean."
"Long, no matter what you say, it cannot shake the navy's determination for justice."
Udyr looked at the soldiers around him who were gradually beginning to waver, and roared at the dragon in dissatisfaction.
If Long were to continue talking, the navy might fall apart today.
He doesn't want to see such a thing. He is the most loyal lackey of the World Government, and even his position is arranged by the World Government.
For the first time after becoming the admiral, he felt the importance of power. If the navy fell apart, he would not be able to serve as admiral for long. How could he tolerate such a thing happening under his nose?
"The Navy represents justice. Stop making me laugh."
Long said in an unusually serious tone: "World Government, as a general, you should be very clear about what kind of people the Celestial Dragons are."
"Why did O'Hara launch the Demon Killing Order? Simply because they touched upon the blank 100 years of history."
"Why is Freifans named the White Town?"
"It is because of the greed of the world government that the residents there are forced to develop white ore, which has led to heavy metal poisoning. There is no cure and they can only wait for death."
"And under the declaration of the World Government, they were mistakenly believed to be infected with the virus and were ruthlessly executed. The town that originally had millions of people was left with only tens of thousands of people. Aren't you an accomplice of the World Government? Aren't you an executioner?"
"Every fact is laid out before your eyes. What else can you resist?"
Long's remarks made most of the navy soldiers on the field turn their eyes to Udyr.
It was not the first time that they had heard of these events, but they only knew that they were evil things done by the World Government. They did not expect that the Navy was involved.
In this way, wouldn't the Navy really become the black glove of the World Government? It is responsible for handling matters that the World Government is not convenient to deal with.
Before Udyr could continue to refute, a voice that Long extremely wanted to hear appeared in the navy.
"I announce my retirement from the Navy."
Ghost Spider was the first to stand up. Although he had a hideous face and a scar on his face, he had already been secretly contacted by the revolutionary army and agreed to join the revolutionary army.
He had been waiting for this moment, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
"I quit too!"
"Count me in. I don't want to be a marine anymore in this disgusting world government."
"Yes, and me."
The marines on the field threw down their cloaks of justice one after another and gathered behind Ghost Spider.
The silent protest was extremely exciting. Such a sudden change not only surprised Sengoku and Garp, but also made the remaining naval soldiers hesitant.
"Father, what do you mean?"
Dragon's look was very clear and direct. Once the navy hero Garp announced his defection to the navy, it would definitely cause an uproar, and the battle between the navy and pirates would never be fought again.
Even with the addition of Garp, the possibility of overthrowing the World Government will increase.
But before Cap could respond, Tridis stood up.
"I am also announcing my retirement from the Navy."
This was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, crushing the nerves of the navy present.
At least 2/3 of the navy present threw down their cloaks of justice and gathered together.
"You, you guys?"
Udyr could not believe that after Long's preaching, so many naval soldiers actually left the Marine Headquarters.
Even his old companion, Tridis, had such an idea.
"Sengoku, Konggu, you should have wanted to leave the World Government a long time ago, right? If it weren't for the fact that the Navy has no income of its own."
"Boom!"
Just as he finished speaking, several red fireballs exploded in the sky.
Long instantly realized that time was running out. "No matter what you navy thinks, just don't interfere in the next battle."
"Whitebeard, Kaido, bring your high-end combat forces with you, the battle has reached its most intense moment."
"You can't be absent from the next battle!"
When Dragon said this, his eyes passed over the white-haired Luffy. He didn't want his son to get involved in that horrific battle.
Because the scale of the battle in the World Government and the battle here in the Marine Headquarters are obviously not on the same level, if he is not careful, even he might die there.
