The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

The addition of new members made the old members of the Revolutionary Party very excited. They accepted these young revolutionaries without any objection. They will follow the Revolutionary Party and return to the base in the West Sea by boat.

With the addition of new forces, the speed of progress not only did not slow down, but accelerated, because there were more manpower to help transport industrial equipment.

Along the way, Marx and Engels still had time to help new comrades familiarize themselves with the situation of the revolutionary party.

In Ma En's opinion, these two hundred new members are equivalent to 20,000 militiamen in terms of their effectiveness. It is precisely because of their abilities that these two hundred new members are scientific seeds with strong scientific research literacy.

Although their number is not particularly large, as long as they serve as the backbone, the base can quickly establish a formal scientific research team.

The construction of the base will also enter a new stage, and some technologies from previous lives that Marx and Engels coveted can be put on the agenda for research and development.

This will be a huge breakthrough for the revolutionary party. As long as Marx and Engels propose ideas and the scientific research team implements them, I believe the technological level of the base will achieve a leapfrog development.

With the knowledge of Marx and Engels in their previous lives as a foundation, it would even be possible to raise the base to the level of the Second Industrial Revolution in a short period of time. Even if it was to reach the information revolution in the Third Industrial Revolution, the time required would be greatly reduced.

Marx and Engels were very excited when they thought that the revolutionary party would use advanced productivity to strike down the world government in the future. At the same time, while being excited, Marx and Engels once again found that he had underestimated the power of thought.

Just leaving behind a few communist books on enlightenment thought could attract a large number of capable and idealistic young people from Baltimore.

Also, in this One Piece world lacking in philosophical thinking, the highly unified way of thinking of dialectical materialism and historical materialism advocated by Marxism is also a dimensionality reduction attack on another level.

Thinking of this, Marx and Engels remembered another thing, that is, the contents of the books that the entire revolutionary party was studying were basically completed by Marx and Engels alone. Although it was just copying, the workload was also huge for an individual.

Marx and Engels could not help but sigh that it would be great if they could quickly convert the knowledge of previous lives into written books, and then spread them in large quantities to the world, then the victory of the world revolution could be advanced by at least ten years.

But now, before finding a method, Ma En can only copy books honestly. As long as he settles down, Ma En will spend two to three hours every day copying the knowledge from his previous life.

During this journey, the new members quickly became friends with the old members. Idealists are like this: even if they come from different corners of the world, as long as they share the same interests, they can become comrades who can entrust their lives to each other.

With everyone's concerted efforts, they finally arrived at the port and transported the equipment to the ship.

Everyone boarded the ship. Although many crew members had left before, the ship was still a bit crowded when new members got on board because they needed to carry industrial equipment.

However, neither the old members of the revolutionary party nor the new young members had any complaints about this. Instead, they were all full of enthusiasm.

So, just like that, under the instructions of Marx, the ship set sail again, with the purpose of reversing the route it came from.

On the way back, it was still a bit monotonous as before. However, unlike when we came here, there were many new members on the ship, as well as a batch of equipment that was urgently needed for the base.

This also gave everyone something to do besides their monotonous lives, and familiarity with and maintenance of industrial equipment became one of the pleasures of the revolutionary party members on the ship.

However, just as the revolutionaries were sailing happily, an accident happened.

"Mr. Marn, the wind is too strong. If it continues like this, a storm will probably come soon." The sword girl, who had trained in the navy and worked as a part-time navigator, said with some concern.

"Comrades, don't be impatient. This ship is one of the most advanced ships on the sea. Comrade Irelia, you have the most experience here, and it will be your turn to command next." Here, Ma En was very self-aware and left the problem to professionals.

"Yes, Mr. Marn." Daomei quickly went to the deck to take command.

"Lower the mast and fold up all the sails." Daomei gave orders on the deck. "Also, put all the equipment on the deck into the cabin, tie them all up with ropes, and nail them down. Secure them all."

Just as everyone was following the instructions of the Swordswoman, the storm came quietly.

The waves were getting higher and higher, and the crew on the ship could only hide in the cabin and close the door. Even Ma En was the same. This was also the first time that Ma En experienced the characteristic of the One Piece world, the strange and violent weather.

There was no light in the cabin, and everyone could not judge the time by the sun. Fortunately, Ma En had a mechanical watch given by Dr. Yue Jian, so he could tell the time.

It was about three more hours before the storm waves began to die down, and another two hours before daylight began to shine.

This is the weather at sea, and it is especially so in the North Sea, which has the worst climate of the four seas, so this storm came and went quickly.

After the weather improved, the revolutionaries also inspected the ship. Fortunately, the equipment was not damaged and the ship only had some minor problems. It only needed to find a port to dock and repair it.

The only possible difficulty was that the ship deviated from its course due to a storm. Although there was a permanent compass to ensure that the general direction of the voyage would not be wrong, it was still a hidden worry that the route could not be found accurately.

Just when the revolutionaries were at a loss as to which course to choose, it was Marx and Engels who made the decision to sail in the direction of the compass.

With a backbone, everyone took action and the ship set sail again.

Fortunately, hard work paid off. After sailing for an hour, the ship found a small island. Although there seemed to be no town on the island, everyone decided to go to the island to investigate.

Soon, everyone took a small boat to the island. As expected, no one was seen at a glance. In order to explore the island as quickly as possible, Maan divided the people who came ashore into three groups, led by Maan, Galen, and Darius to conduct investigations deep into the island.

After more than an hour of exploration, the team led by Maen did not find anything, and they also met up with the team led by Galen on the way.

The only gain for the two teams might be the discovery of fresh water. However, that was not bad either. The ships did lose some fresh water during the storm, which could be replenished.

The two teams then began to return along the road. This was agreed upon before the exploration. No matter what the results of the exploration were, they would return and reunite after two hours. Although not much time had passed, the route had been basically explored, so Ma En and others decided to lead the team back first.

On the way back, Maen and Galen were discussing whether they needed to increase their efforts to search for other resources on the island after obtaining fresh water. "Bang." A gunshot interrupted their discussion.

All three teams carried guns during this exploration. The gunshots were coming from the direction that Darius' team was exploring. Could it be that something unexpected happened to Darius' team?
