Chapter 1184 Bloodstained Mary Joa
Although the meeting in Mary Joa was over, there was still one most immediate issue, which was money.
All subsequent actions will require huge financial support, and perhaps the various Celestial Dragon families can provide some.
We cannot have too high expectations for the heavenly gold of the member states.
Many member states suffered heavy losses, domestic chaos, and invasions by external forces, and many member states were even directly destroyed.
Even if the country is restored, its national strength will be much weaker than before.
The kingdom's treasury was plundered by pirates, and the nobles were killed and looted. Under such circumstances, how could they come up with the gold from heaven?
You know, given the current situation at sea, even the common people don’t have much money.
If we continue to increase the burden on the people just to hand over the gold from heaven, we will be courting our own destruction and will only assist the revolutionary army.
In order to support the Golden Naval Battle and help the four navies maintain order on the sea and resist pirates, the member states invested a lot of money and materials.
Although the war was won, no benefits were gained.
How could they accept such a result?
Interests are everything, and some member states are already very dissatisfied with the world government.
Of course, there is no intention of leaving the ranks of member states. This ocean still requires the efforts of the World Government and the Navy.
It is easy to withdraw from a member country, but at the same time, you will no longer get the protection of the World Government and the Navy.
In this chaotic sea, without the protection of the navy, the situation will only be worse.
However, the strength of pirates is beyond imagination. No matter how dissatisfied they are, each member country still needs to give full support to the World Government.
It is impossible for the member states that have been hit hard to provide the World Government with the Heavenly Gold in a short period of time.
It is also impossible for other member states that are in better conditions to pay all the gold as usual.
The current World Government cannot say that if a country fails to hand over the Heavenly Gold, it will lose its status as a member of the World Government.
After all, the member states are becoming increasingly important to the world government, not just because of the gold in the sky. The influence of each member state in a certain sea area can also serve as an extension of government power.
In the process of suppressing the revolutionary army, cooperation from the allied countries is needed.
After this war, the world government can be said to have returned to the pre-liberation era.
During the Rocks era, the World Government lost half of its member states. Over the years, it had finally increased the number of member states, but now so many have been destroyed again.
At the very least, within a few years, it will be impossible for twenty or thirty member states to take out the gold from the sky, and they will not be able to do so.
This represents hundreds of billions of Baileys worth of wealth.
What's more, the sea is still in chaos.
The disaster is continuing. Although the main force has retreated, it still has strong stamina. It will take a long time for the navy and the world government to restore order in the ocean.
Even if it recovers, it will take at least ten years to return to the situation before the war.
It will take time for rising prices to slowly recover.
Money is needed everywhere.
The navy needs conscripts and pensions.
During the war, the world government even incurred a lot of debt and owed a lot of money.
The war ended in November of 1506 in the Haiyuan calendar.
The Heavenly Gold was delivered to the World Government long before the war.
However, one war consumes almost all of it.
Don't forget that the Golden Naval War lasted for two and a half years and has been consuming the funds of the World Government.
The remaining money is not enough for the world government to maintain order and development.
We must find a way to get huge wealth.
Just as Hades had expected, the World Government took action against many forces in Marijoa.
The real main force of this war, most of the high-end combat power comes from the various forces in Mary Geoise.
Without the participation and support of these forces, the world government would have lost the war long ago.
Similarly, in this brutal war, the various forces in Mary Geoise suffered heavy losses.
Participating in this war is no different from consumables.
When the birds are all gone, the good bows are put away; when the rabbit is dead, the good dogs are cooked.
Without strong people guarding them, these forces that suffered heavy losses naturally became the targets of the World Government.
The Celestial Dragons suffered heavy losses, so it is naturally impossible for them to come up with any more money to support the World Government.
Moreover, the Celestial Dragons’ treasure troves had been stolen several times, and each family had suffered heavy economic losses.
Don't think that the Tianlong family has a lot of money.
In order to maintain the development of the family, train agents, strong people loyal to the family, and other expenses, funds are required.
What's more, family members also need to divide the gold from heaven to spend money and buy slaves.
As a result, these forces in Marijoa naturally became the target of the World Government.
It is impossible to dissolve the world government.
Im has fully awakened. In the future, the world government will have to eliminate powerful enemies one by one. The pride of the Celestial Dragons will not allow them to surrender. They must retaliate with tooth for tooth and blood for blood.
What's more, the investment is too huge and there are a lot of sunk costs. How can we be willing to give up like this?
This is already the third time.
In two bloody battles, Marijoa was purged.
Every time it is a feast, and many forces participate in it.
Marijoa's power is dwindling, the wealthy nobles and tycoons have mysteriously disappeared, and no one would be foolish enough to come to this hell.
And this time, no one will follow the World Government to share the spoils.
There are still some remaining forces who just watch everything quietly, feeling their bodies cold and terrified by the ruthlessness of the World Government.
No one wants to help the world government anymore.
All the remaining forces are preparing to leave Marijoa.
Staying in Marijoa is just waiting for death. It will be destroyed sooner or later.
As for Marijoa's rights, they no longer mattered.
As the saying goes, three times the limit, this is the third time the World Government has harvested the power of Mary Geoise.
Harvesting is inevitable. The world government needs to recover and can only find a way.
The Celestial Dragon family also does not want the existence of these forces that may threaten them.
Most of the forces are withdrawing.
They are already feeling chilled.
It will also be impossible to participate in wars for the world government in the future.
Fortunately, they had prepared a backup plan before the war and would not put all their eggs in one basket.
The prosperous Marijoa is gradually becoming deserted.
Although there are still many residents, the number of people who can be considered as real figures is decreasing.
Many familiar faces died on the battlefield, and those who survived were ready to leave Mary Geoise.
During the war, many forces were preparing to leave Marijoa, some even leaving quietly.
The four major families, including the Sterling family, are also preparing to leave Mary Joa.
They have given up the idea of replacing the world's nobility and are ready to focus on the sea.
The Phoenix family did not need to inform the World Government before leaving.
The same is true of the Augustus family and the Nicholas family.
The Sterling family is also preparing to break away from the political system of the World Government.
At this point, the Kingdom of Chronos no longer needs the Sterling family to provide intelligence.
It is important to escape from this abyss as soon as possible.
The Sterling family has few members. If Victor dies in battle, it will have a huge negative impact on the Sterling family.
Who can predict the future of war? So many top fighters have died, and no one can guarantee that they will survive.
Even Hades gave the Sterling family some pertinent advice, which was to leave.
The Sterling family still believed in Hades' words.
It's not just about asking them to leave Marijoa.
After living in Marijoa for so many years, they have been able to obtain some intelligence about the World Government with their remaining power, which is enough for them.
The cleansing of Mary Joa lasted for a full month.
There were battles and fights, and the battles even extended to the sea.
The Celestial Dragon family is also involved, and they need to take this opportunity to make up for some losses.
This month's Mary Joa is bloody.
In the future, no forces will fight for the World Government anymore.
They either left or were destroyed.
With this purge, the world government recovered in an instant.
Although it is not enough to fill the stomach all at once, it is enough for the world government to survive and get through this difficult time.
The current world government has been deserted by its friends and relatives.
Even if they realize this, they actually don't care about it.
When you take action, you are actually prepared.
These forces in Mary Geoise began preparing for a retreat very early on, and the World Government has always been aware of these things.
Since they have already decided to go their separate ways, they will have no psychological burden in cleaning up these forces.
They can be considered to have made a contribution by being able to contribute their own efforts to the development of the world government.
Even if someone is arranged to take away some assets in advance, a large portion will still remain.
After all, the fact that they were able to stay in Marijoa actually showed their determination and that they still believed that the World Government could win.
The result was what they wanted, but the world government treated them just as ruthlessly and inhumanely.
If the world government suffered less losses in this war, it would not do this.
