The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

The revolutionary party's ships may have approached the Arctic Circle, because as they sail northward, icebergs begin to appear on the sea. At this time, Irelia, Garen and Darius are needed to break the ice and play the role of icebreakers.

Finally, after a difficult voyage, the people on the ship saw land. If nothing unexpected happened, it was Baltimore, and the ship docked there.

Everyone got off the boat and stepped onto solid land. Looking around, all they could see was white. But Ma En knew that these were just appearances, and the real destination was further inside.

While on the way, Marx also gave the revolutionaries some basic knowledge about the great scientist Vegapunk. At that time, he had not yet been touted as the world's number one scientist by the World Government, and not many people in the world knew him.

Ma En explained to everyone, "Vegapunk was born in Balkimoa. He was a genius from birth. He designed and created a large number of inventions when he was a teenager, leaving behind hundreds of design drawings.

To ordinary people, any of these drawings would be priceless treasures, and it would be difficult to realize them even after two or three hundred years. However, to him, they were just something he did casually.

Also, as you can see, the entire Balkimoia is covered in snow. Vegapunk wanted to design a "land heating system", but it was interrupted when it was just beginning to take shape due to lack of technology and funds. He also cried because he could not let everyone live a good life. "

"So, Vegapunk is a person who loves his hometown very much." Darius, who had been taciturn all the way, spoke first. His old rival Garen beside him looked at him in surprise.

"That's right. A person who is willing to work for his hometown must have kindness in his heart," Ma En said with a smile.

"It would be great if Mr. Vegapunk could join our revolutionary army." Lacus beside Marn interrupted.

After hearing the suggestion given by Lacus, Marn actually started to think about it. Not to mention, if Vegapunk had not yet joined the World Government, this matter would actually be feasible.

However, let’s not think too much about it for now. Let’s first build the industrial equipment needed for the base.

After walking for a while, the revolutionaries finally saw a small town, a town made entirely of machines, including mechanical dogs, mechanical birds, and ordinary people.

When Marx and Engels told the townspeople about their purpose of visit, they were received and a friendly banquet was held between the two sides.

"Cheers, gentlemen. Welcome to Balkimore. I sincerely hope that you can get what you want here." The village chief said enthusiastically to the revolutionaries.

Then, everything at the banquet refreshed everyone's cognition. Everything was done completely by mechanical creations, without any manpower, and was completely automated. This also shocked many old-fashioned people in the revolutionary party, and the villagers in the town were also proud of it.

"Now, I understand what Mr. Marx and Engels said about science and technology being the primary productive forces." Galen said with emotion at the banquet, and most other members of the Revolutionary Party also expressed the same view.

Ma En himself was chatting with the village chief of the town.

"Mr. Maan, do you want to buy industrial equipment? Oh, unfortunately we can't provide it here. There are only small workshops in our small place. If you need small technological products, we can provide services. If you want bigger ones, you can only go to the main city." The village chief replied.

Ma En, who had learned the information, thanked the village chief, and the banquet gradually reached its climax in a warm atmosphere. Taking advantage of this atmosphere, Ma En also revealed some information about the Revolutionary Party to the village chief.

As the banquet gradually came to an end, the two people who had restrained themselves at the banquet began a private conversation.

"Mr. Maan, I didn't expect your goal to be so grand. Although I don't want to admit it, the World Government is indeed powerful. Even though it is rotten on the inside, it still looks so indestructible on the outside." The village chief sighed helplessly.

Maan shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. What do you think of Balkimoa's technology?"

The village chief puffed out his chest upon hearing this and said, "Although our village is not ranked high, the technology of Balkimoya is definitely world-renowned and among the best in the world."

Maan smiled and continued, "If Balkimoa's technology is so powerful, why hasn't it spread around the world?"

"Of course it's because of the obstruction of the World Government." The village chief said without hesitation.

"Then why does the world government want to block the spread of technology?" Ma En asked.

The village chief thought about this question for a while before saying solemnly, "Because technology will shake the rule of the world government."

"Yes, this is the real reason why the world is blocking the spread of technology." Ma En said with a serious face, "Just imagine, if advanced technology is spread all over the world and productivity is developed, will there still be a situation in the world where people are forced to become pirates because they cannot survive?

When people can live better by simply working, is it necessary to maintain the world government system now? Technology means the development of productivity, which means natural advancement.

The world governments are deeply afraid of the future after the popularization of science and technology, so they are naturally backward. In contrast, what we, the revolutionary party, have to do is to develop productivity and liberate people's lives sooner or later.

Although you may think we are still very weak at this time, our advantage lies in our pursuit of advancement. If we can develop productivity through science and technology, the power of revolution will be able to expand to the whole world in a short period of time. Our development speed will be unmatched by the backward world governments.

The advanced will surely win over the backward. This is one of the reasons why our revolutionary party is bound to win. "

After listening to Ma En's speech, the village chief was enlightened. "Mr. Ma En, you are really amazing. You know what? I now wonder if you are a prophet sent by God to the sea to fulfill a sacred mission."

Hearing the village chief's praise, Ma En did not show a complacent expression. "All of this is just the basic law of how the world works, and I just got to know this knowledge by chance." Ma En said softly.

"No, no, no. Even if you already know the answer, the fact that you dare to draw your sword against the World Government has already surpassed 99.9% of the people in the world." The village chief quickly interrupted Ma En's modesty.

"Don't you want to buy industrial equipment? I happen to know someone there. Just go to the main city and tell me my name. I guarantee you will get a preferential price." The village chief continued.

"Thank you very much!" This was Ma En's heartfelt thanks. At this time, Ma En also wanted to return the gift. After thinking for a while, he took out a few books from the package he carried with him and handed them to the village chief.

The village chief took the book in confusion. "Das Kapital," he read out the name of the first tome in confusion.

"Do you want to know where my ideas come from? Read these books and you will know." Ma En smiled at the village chief opposite him.
