Chapter 180 The 5th Big Sign, Fujitora
Chapter 180 The Fifth Big Sign, Fujitora
I have been wondering, if the content of this recording is true, then is Kaido really governing Wano Country well?
They even took the initiative to build houses for the people, distributed them for free, gave them jobs and kept them well fed and clothed?
I felt my outlook on life was a little broken, and after a long while I spoke, "What you said... is it true?"
"My words don't count. It will only be true when Mr. Yisheng sees it."
Lu Li said, "I'm sure Mr. Yisheng must be wondering why we should be so nice to the people?"
Yisheng nodded, "Is there any evil purpose?"
He spoke frankly and really thought so in his heart, and felt that there was no reason for the pirates to do this.
"Evil purpose?"
Lu Li laughed when he heard this, "For the World Government, this is indeed an evil purpose."
Yisheng's expression darkened again when he heard that. "Sure enough, you pirates have bad intentions."
"Mr. Yisheng misunderstood."
Lu Li said, "Do you think that the world ruled by the Tianlong people is reasonable? So many countries in the world have to pay Tianshangjin, and how many people have starved to death for this? Do you think this is justice?"
Yisheng was stunned this time. He is 42 years old this year. All he saw after going to sea was the evil of pirates, but he did not think that the navy was the real justice.
As a ranger, he traveled to many countries and witnessed too many countries declining due to the high cost of heavenly gold. Some countries had to wage wars against other countries in order to be able to afford the heavenly gold. In his heart, this was certainly not justice.
It's just that the world government led by the Celestial Dragons, which rules the world and maintains world order, seems to have become a deeply rooted thing, so he has never thought about the underlying reasons for the suffering of the world's people.
When Lu Li said this, he suddenly realized that this world was rotten to the core. He had originally thought about finding an opportunity to join the navy and use his own skills to realize the justice in his heart.
But now he has given up this idea, thinking that helping the world government would be aiding and abetting evil.
For a moment, he fell into a greater self-contradiction than the truth or falsity of Lu Li’s previous words.
That is because he doesn't know how to realize the justice in his heart. How many people can he save by traveling across the sea to do good deeds?
Joining the World Government would be like helping the evildoers. What should he do?
"It seems that Mr. Issei has the answer in his heart. Yes, the reason why we must govern Wano Country well is to resist the World Government and overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons."
Seeing Yisheng deep in thought, Lu Li continued to speak, "Mr. Kaido went to sea when he was young, but was betrayed by his country and handed over to the World Government. He had no choice when he was weak, so he became a world-famous pirate. But when he finally had his own territory, he did not forget his dream when he was young."
Issei was curious and asked, "What is Mr. Kaido's dream?"
He has always been polite, and Lu Li was also very polite, so he used honorifics as well.
"Mr. Kaido wants to overthrow his fellow Celestial Dragons and create a fair world without Celestial Gold, where everyone's status is determined by their ability. Perhaps this ideal is crude and shallow, and absolute justice is too difficult to achieve, but I am still willing to help Mr. Kaido achieve his goal. At least we want to overthrow the Celestial Dragons first and abolish this damn Celestial Gold."
Lu Li's words were like nails piercing Yisheng's heart, causing him to waver.
Yes, this is what he longed for!
This is what he really wants to do but has never been able to do!
If they could overthrow the Celestial Dragons and establish a healthier world order, life would be much better for the people without the Celestial Golden Queen.
Yisheng looked at Kaido's position again at this time, and his expression changed. He never thought that the Four Emperors Kaido was actually a hero with such lofty ambitions.
When it comes to dreams and ideals, I have always believed that Lu Li would not lie to me, and Kaido would not lie to me.
Everyone in the New World probably knows what kind of person Kaido is. Many people say that he is fierce and cruel, but no one says that Kaido is a deceitful and fickle guy.
Especially regarding dreams, this is a noble word for pirates. Someone like Kaido would never joke about such things to deceive others.
If what Lu Li said before is true, it is easy to understand their idea, which is to govern Wano Country well and let people live and work in peace and contentment, and then promote this trend to the countries in the New World, forming a huge force and then resisting the World Government.
Regardless of what Kaido's true attitude towards the people is, if he wants to go down this path and fulfill his dream, he certainly cannot go against the people. This is judging by actions rather than heart.
For a moment, Yisheng suddenly realized that his position and Kaido's were naturally the same. They both wanted to change this damn world and overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons!
Yisheng felt that his life goals were clear, but he did not put down the sword in his hand. He wondered whether Kaido's method was easier to achieve, or whether the Revolutionary Army's way was easier to overthrow the Celestial Dragons.
"Mr. Yisheng, I traveled overseas in my early years and heard a lot about your deeds. I think you are a knight who cares about the people. So when Mr. Jin told me that you were here, I didn't think about how to defeat you. Instead, I hoped that you could join us and fight for the great cause together."
Lu Li finally revealed his true intentions and stated his proposal.
"What you want to do, the Revolutionary Army is also doing."
Yisheng said, "And I'm not sure everything you said is true."
Lu Li felt that this was probably his last act of stubbornness, so he said, "The Revolutionary Army? They have only risen in recent years, right? Do they have the military strength we have? Do they have a complete country to produce and create economic value for them? I don't deny the ideals of the Revolutionary Army. In a sense, we are allies of the United Front, but I still have to say that the Revolutionary Army is far behind us at the moment."
He came closer and said sincerely: "Mr. Yisheng, now we are closer to our goal."
After hearing what he said, Yisheng thought about it and felt that what Lu Li said made sense. If what Lu Li said was true, and Wano Country was indeed a place where the people could live and work in peace and contentment, then there was no doubt that the Beasts Pirates would gain huge economic benefits from this country and would have a strong logistical foundation.
On the whole, it would definitely be easier to realize his dream by joining the Beasts Pirates.
"I can go back with you. If Wano Country is really as you said, then I will be a member of the Beasts Pirates from now on."
Issei said that he was very calm and had not identified himself with Kaido's family. If he was dissatisfied with going to Wano Country, he would consider leaving and joining the Revolutionary Army.
"Then I would like to welcome Mr. Yisheng in advance. Although we call it a pirate group, we actually no longer do regular pirate business. We only educate pirates who have just entered the New World and will not rob other countries." Lu Li said with a smile, "Mr. Yisheng will gradually understand it in the future."
He was not talking nonsense. In fact, after the Beasts Pirates entered Wano Country, they no longer went out to sea to rob other countries. After all, Kaido had enough time to deal with the affairs of Wano Country. He was famous for being one of the Four Queens, and many big businessmen came to him. He made a lot of money just from the arms trade, and had no intention of robbing other small countries.
After he became the military advisor of the Beasts Pirates, he put forward several suggestions, which were the transformation guidelines of the pirate group.
After all, Kaido is going to do big things in the future, and he can't always carry the image of a pirate that the people of the world will hate. The pirate group must also be formalized, and it can't be that the people at the top are well-behaved while the pirates below are secretly burning, killing and looting.
According to Lu Li's strategy book, it is estimated that the Beasts Pirates will become an existence similar to the Revolutionary Army in the future, and will no longer be pirates famous for robbery.
As time fades, people will only remember that Kaido is one of the Four Emperors and that he is the King of Wano Country.
"Your Excellency is very sincere, and I believe that what you say is mostly true."
Issei said politely, and walked towards Kaido and others who were watching the show.
Kaido was grinning from ear to ear at this moment, and the other pirates and explorers were also very surprised, because it had only been about ten minutes since Lu Li started talking to Yisheng.
In just such a short period of time, Yisheng, the originally hostile super master, is about to join their Beasts Pirates.
This made the crew members on the ship admire the wisdom of "Military Advisor Mr. Lu" even more, while the explorers felt speechless and thought that they could do the same.
It's a pity that they didn't have such a good start, nor did they have the strength and courage to trick Kaido into giving them Lu Li's current status and position.
"welcome!"
Kaido did not hide his joy. You have to know that this is a master who is stronger than Jin and has the same ideals as him. According to Lu Li, this is the best partner, who is guaranteed in terms of both combat power and loyalty.
"In my next life, I am willing to follow you and accomplish your great cause, thanks to Mr. Kaido for not abandoning me."
Issei spoke in an elegant and polite manner. Kaido didn't pay much attention to the details. He was just very happy to hear Issei say that he wanted to follow him.
Of course, half of what he said at this time was for the sake of the occasion. Only when he truly sees the beauty of Wano Country will he follow Kaido wholeheartedly.
After greeting Kaido, Yisheng turned to Jin and said, "Mr. Jin, I apologize for any offense I caused you before."
Jhin just nodded indifferently, "Next time we spar, I won't lose to you."
"Hahaha, a new partner has joined us. Guys, it's time to have a party!"
Kaido laughed heartily and completely forgot about going to Sky Island to find the original historical text.
Now, in his opinion, the historical text is something that must be obtained, but it is not a very important thing. After all, he does not think that the "great secret treasure" alone can overthrow the Celestial Dragons. He still needs to cultivate his power down to earth to win this battle.
Under Kaido's instructions, the crowd did not go up from the top of the West Heaven, but held a banquet on the spot. Kaido even personally hunted a sea king for everyone to eat.
At the banquet, everyone toasted each other and became familiar with each other.
During this time, Yisheng saw some crew members playing dice gambling, and he couldn't help but go up and play a few rounds.
After three rounds of drinking, Kaido slapped his thigh and said, "I almost forgot, Mr. Yisheng, from now on you will be our fifth big boss. As for the title…"
He thought for a long time, but couldn't come up with a good disaster.
Yisheng spoke again, "I don't like disasters. We have the name of a hundred beasts. If I have to have a name, it would be 'Fujitora'."
Lu Li heard Yisheng's words and almost choked on his wine.
I wondered if this was the conclusion of the world line, or if I just liked this title so much that I used it everywhere?
"Fujitora? Very powerful, not bad!"
Kaido said with a laugh, not caring about his big-ticket disaster lineup being destroyed. Anyway, the opponent also brought "animals", which fits the style of the Beasts Pirates.
Kaido took a sip of wine and looked at Lu Li again, "By the way, where did you get the recording? On the day of housing allocation, Jin hadn't come back yet, had he?"
Yisheng was also moved when he heard this. He knew that someone like Kaido would not act in front of him, so this further enhanced the credibility of Lu Li's words.
However, after the banquet, he has almost agreed with Kaido and feels that he has not chosen the wrong path. He just wants to go to Wano Country to see it with his own eyes to strengthen his heart.
"Well, I thought this was a very memorable scene, so I asked someone to record it, but I couldn't find one, so I used an audio recorder instead."
Lu Li explained, "Originally, I wanted to record that moment in the history department and show it to Yamato later to show him how his father behaved. I never thought it would become evidence for Mr. Issei to see."
He is not a fortune teller, and he doesn't know how much he will have to persuade people for the rest of his life. This recording just happened to come in handy.
Kaido became interested after hearing this, "What did Yamato say after hearing this?"
"Yamato said that your speech was very stiff..."
Lu Li complained on Yamato's behalf.
