Pirate: I'm really not a Super Saiyan

Chapter 102 New Government

"Big news! Big news!"

"The Roger Pirates have accomplished an unprecedented feat of circumnavigating the ocean! The true king of the sea has emerged!"

Overnight, a piece of breaking news spread throughout the world and set off a storm!

The great pirate, no, the Pirate King, Gold Roger conquered the last island of the Grand Line, Raftel!

(Regarding the question about Roger's name, I have responded to a reader's comment in Chapter 71, so I will not elaborate on it hereafter.)

“Is this true?!

Can a pirate travel around the world completely?"

In a tavern on Nivida Island, a group of people were drinking and reading the breaking news. One person questioned the authenticity of the news.

"You are such a fool! This is a newspaper endorsed by the new government! How can it be fake?"

A drinking buddy at the same table retorted to him unhappily.

Considering that this was indeed an official newspaper issued by the new government, this person no longer questioned the authenticity of the matter, and instead excitedly discussed with everyone the impact of Roger becoming the Pirate King on the ocean.

It seems that the political awareness of middle-aged men after drinking is a universal skill regardless of the world or race.

In the pub, everyone was discussing the matter heatedly.

Oub, who worked as a part-time waiter in a tavern, heard the news and felt itchy.

As soon as he got off work, Oub took a newspaper and ran home, intending to read the big news to his mother.

Part-time waiter is one of several semi-public welfare positions set up by the new government based on actual conditions, specifically for children whose families are below the poverty line. Usually several children take turns to work in this position.

Stores that employ part-time waiters will enjoy tax exemptions and reductions according to policies when declaring taxes.

Therefore, even if a few extra children are hired, the store will not suffer any loss in terms of economic accounts. As soon as this policy was introduced, it was very popular with everyone.

"Mom! Mom! Check out today's news!"

Oub returned home holding the newspaper and said to his mother who was sewing cloth.

Then, without waiting for his mother to reply, he started reading the news in the newspaper.

The newspaper told some news about the world and the new government from a neutral and objective perspective in plain and simple language. The news that Roger became the Pirate King was on the front page of today's newspaper.

I believe the editors are also very aware of the sensational nature of this matter.

Oub read the report word by word haltingly, and his mother stopped what she was doing and listened carefully to her son's words.

After Uub finished reading, he said excitedly.

"Mom! Roger is so amazing that he can conquer the entire ocean!

I want to go to sea in the future, and I want to become a brave pirate warrior!"

Mom was startled by Uub's words and quickly warned him.

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid?!

If you dare to be a pirate, just try it. You are living such a good life at home now, why don’t you become a thief?

You can go to sea if you want, but you can join the army as a new soldier. If you become a new soldier, can't you still go to sea? ! "

Seeing his mother getting angry, Oub, knowing that he had said something wrong, quickly made amends.

"Oh, Mom, I just wanted to be a new soldier. You misunderstood what I meant!"

The mother still refused to give in and did not let Oub go easily. She held his ears and scolded him for a long time before letting him go.

Oub is 12 years old. His parents are farmers and he worked in the fields with his parents until more than two years ago. Like his parents, he has never learned to read or been to school.

His fate and the fate of his family changed dramatically more than two years ago.

As one of the first 12 islands selected by the new army, the kingdom army of the original country was no match for the new army and was defeated.

The royal family of the former Niveda Kingdom was sentenced to exile after the new army visited people from all walks of life.

New Army is the abbreviation of New Navy.

More than two years have passed since Xia split up and took away a group of navy in Marinford.

After leaving Marinford safely two years ago, Xia summoned some representatives from the navy. After discussion, everyone unanimously decided that everyone's identity and title must not change, and our identity must still be navy!

However, in order to distinguish it from the navy of Marinford, and also to bid farewell to the past and draw a clear line, everyone called their own new naval organization the New Navy, or the New Army for short, and called the navy of Marinford the Old Navy, or the Old Army for short.

After comprehensively considering the geographical location, population resources, and difficulty of ruling, the New Army identified 12 islands in the middle of the New World for the first phase of its plan to attack and occupy, and Niveda Island was one of them.

Under the call of lofty ideals and beliefs, the soldiers of the new army were full of fighting spirit, and with the support of masters such as Xia and Barrett, they took advantage of the fact that the old navy was unable to act in a short period of time and easily captured the 12 islands.

And establish a new government, which, like the new army, directly calls itself the new government and calls the original world government the old government to distinguish it.

The new government no longer had any kingdoms within its sphere of influence. Instead, everything was managed vertically by the government, with Xia serving as the dual head of both the new government and the new army.

The capital is located on an island in the middle of the 12 islands, which Xia named Shangri-La.

It carries the beautiful meaning of heaven.

Maryjoel and Marinford certainly could not call Xia and his team the new government, so they directly referred to them as their capital island and called the regime they established the Xiang Kingdom.

The people of these 12 islands, which were the first territories of the new government, were very frightened at first. In their minds, the new army was a group of rebels against the world government. How could they be good people? !

The various policies issued by the new government at the beginning were difficult to implement.

In response to this difficulty, at Xia's suggestion, the new government and the new army decided to slow down the pace of expansion and shift the focus of the first year to governance in order to lay a solid foundation for the emerging regime.

With the soldiers of the new army as the backbone and local people recruited as the support, all the work was carried out in an orderly manner within a year.

Because they no longer had to pay celestial gold to the Celestial Dragons and were no longer subject to various exorbitant taxes by the royal family, the new government was clean, strict, fair and just, and ordinary people had a lot of extra money in their hands for the first time in history!

Even after receiving taxes, the new government deliberately set aside a portion of the budget to be used to improve people's livelihood, build infrastructure, popularize education, serve the public, and improve people's well-being.

The part-time waiters mentioned earlier are one of the products of the above policy.

Through this two-pronged approach, the quality of life of people on these 12 islands has been greatly improved.

The new government successfully replaced the original kingdoms in everyone's hearts and became a new regime that everyone recognized in their hearts.

The new government also won the support of the people.
