Even a calm person like Taizog couldn't help but feel his blood boiling at this moment, and his face was flushed with excitement. Not to mention the even more impulsive Bonnie, the even more passionate Xiao Feng, and the other students. Law and Sabo clenched their fists below, and were eager to join the revolutionary army and shed their blood. Kuina was simpler, with sword energy emanating from her body. At this moment, she particularly understood her father's evaluation of Master Noah, who was not sincere to the way of the sword. With this concept, it doesn't matter if she is not sincere to the way of the sword. After Noah finished speaking, Big Bear read out the list of rewards. Almost everyone who participated got a share. Only Tyzog didn't get anything, because his Golden-Gold Fruit represented everything. "Now, let the party begin!" "Oh~~!" The sizzling roasted sea king meat exudes a smell that makes people salivate. Paired with golden rum, this is happiness. Bonnie, the foodie, started eating big chunks of meat with a bowl of wine in front of her. She called Xiao Feng and Taizog to come over and eat the meat quickly. This was her highest expression of friendship. Taizog looked at the little dress she had specially put on, and then at the oil marks left on it by Bonnie, and decided to teach this crazy woman a lesson. "drink!" Chapter 217 Comments on the World's Masters
At this joyous moment, Noah didn't want to talk about business, so he pulled Ryu and Fujitora over for a drink. I remember that when the banquet was held, other people were happy, and he and Long always hid in a small corner to continue discussing the future of the revolutionary that time, they didn't have much time for banquets except for some diplomatic needs. They were relieved when the South China Sea Federation was successfully established. The future is about to enter a new chapter. During this gap, they can also take a short break. It's a pity that Tiger and Jinbei haven't come back yet, otherwise everyone will have a drink together. Fujitora refused Noah's suggestion to drink with him and insisted on going downstairs to drink with the other students. Noah didn't stop him and let him go. "I bet he'll be back soon." Long didn't respond. Is there any need to ask such a thing? Sure enough, Fujitora came back with a bored look on his face a few moments later. "These little brats actually didn't welcome me. I'm so pissed off." "At least when I was in school, I didn't like drinking with my teacher, who was a 3-meter-tall strong man with scars on his face who could beat me up at any time." Pfft...Fujitora was sunk by the truth. Noah couldn't bear to see one of the three major forces of the Revolutionary Army so depressed, so he gave him a suggestion, which was to wait until the second half of the night when everyone was drunk, and then go down and blend in with them. "Is your idea real?" "Can I lie to you? When people are drunk, even dogs can have a couple of drinks..." Oops, I let it slip. Hmm? Fujitora always felt something was wrong. After seeing the uncontrollable smile on Ivankov's face, he realized that the dog... Why can this mouth speak words of passion and justice, but also spit out such venom? Depressed, he had no choice but to drink with Noah and Long. Drinking without anything else would be boring, so everyone wanted to find a topic to talk about. Somehow, the topic ended up being about the masters. Long first talked about this topic. He had fought against many opponents over the years. Especially after meeting Noah, the level of the masters he fought against rose sharply. He never played any low-end games and was forced to have very rich experience. "Among the masters I have met, the only one who can be called my rival is Kong Gang, the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the World Government. He is very strong in physical skills and has broken several of my bones. I will avenge him!" I don't know if it was because he drank or what, but Long's pettiness came out. Then the comments were all about great people in the sea.
"Akainu, he's OK. Aokiji, he's not bad. Kizaru, he's a bit good. Kaido, he's just lucky." Noah smacked his lips at this, realizing that Long's alcohol tolerance might not be as deep as his appearance suggested. However, he could take this opportunity to ask him some gossip. "What about Garp?" "That old man, huh, if it weren't for his age, I would have given him a few loving punches!" Noah understood again. It seemed that Long was beaten a lot by Garp when he was young, so there was a reason for his rebellion. "So where is your wife from?" "My wife...is..." Oh, why don't you tell me? You are so hesitant. This big gossip is one of the unsolved mysteries in the One Piece world. According to Noah's estimation, unless Oda releases a related movie in the future, the main publication will not explain this matter. "I didn't. Hahahaha." Seeing Long's clear eyes, Noah knew he had been tricked. This guy... Seeing Noah being humiliated, the others were also very happy. They always saw him teasing others, but this time he was always restrained. However, the discussions of some students in the distance were carried here by the wind. "Tell me, who is the best fighter in our revolutionary army?" Hmm? ...No one in the room said anything, wanting to hear what the students had to say. Everyone pretended not to care, saying words they couldn't understand, while secretly using their Observation Haki to cover that area. "The most powerful one must be Chief Long. He is the leader of the Revolutionary Army and a great master who has fought against the Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies twice. It is said that he fought so hard in Marijoa that the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. He is definitely a master among masters." Long nodded slightly, it was not that he could not accept it. "Hey! I think Teacher Noah is the best. Have you forgotten the sword that split the sea at the beach? Besides, when he attacked Marijoa, Teacher Noah was there too. Isn't that powerful?" Noah nodded slightly, it made some sense. "Bullshit, Fujitora-sensei is the best. Have you forgotten about the huge meteorite that fell from the sky? It was a natural disaster. Who could withstand it?" Fujitora nodded slightly, that’s a good point. "Ahem, some of these little brats haven't seen much of the world, how can they know who's powerful?" "That's it" At this time, Ivankov and Daxiong next to them felt that they should say a few words. "Hahahaha, don't get me wrong, how could we possibly take words like this seriously?" Noah was the first to express his opinion. Ryu and Fujitora also agreed, which made Ivankov and the others feel relieved. "But... it seems like we three have never fought each other before~~" Ga—Ivankov felt like his heart was about to jump out. You three should stop being so childish. The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and the people nearby also sensed that something was not right, and they all observed quietly.
Click, Noah suddenly helped Kazuichimonji stand up without saying a word. Fujitora also stood up with his sword and staff, and Ryu did the same. The three of them formed a triangle. They clearly didn't release any domineering aura or momentum, but everyone's hearts seemed to be pinched. No way. At this time, even the hormone fruit couldn't stop the sweat from flowing down like a waterfall, and Big Bear also showed a rare trace of worry. Suddenly, a leaf floated between the three people. Ivankov's pupils shrank. Was this a signal to start a war? He seemed to see the leaves being crushed by the momentum in an instant, and the scene where sword energy and strong wind were raging on the island. Hmm... why is there nothing? I looked over and saw that Noah and the other three had sat down facing the crowd again, holding up their wine glasses. "Cheers, everyone!" x3 Damn, these three damn guys. If Ivankov hadn't really been defeated, he would have rushed up and given each of them a big dou. I was about to have a heart attack, and you guys did this? ! Everyone present wanted to beat those three guys. Strength, strength. Everyone finally understood the importance of strength, which allowed them to beat whoever they wanted. "cheers." The big bear drank the cup as big as a human head in one gulp, and then. "Let's toast together!" Got it! Everyone went crazy looking for the three hateful guys to drink with. Can't beat you or drink with you? Brothers, come on together. Chapter 218 Accept it as a dog The shadow of war has dissipated from the South China Sea, and the 20 countries in the South China Sea have received bad news that they simply cannot bear. The defeat in the previous war had already dealt them a heavy blow, so there was a major reshuffle of domestic forces, from a group of radical nobles to another group of conservative nobles. At the same time, they gathered together privately to discuss how to deal with the South China Sea Federation. "The soldiers must be redeemed! And as soon as possible! The situation in our country is almost unstable." "That's easy to say. How about asking Lord Charlie to discuss the redemption with the South Sea Federation?" "Reconsideration", "Reconsideration", "Reconsideration", "Reconsideration" Humph, whoever goes there at this time is a fool. It's not pleasant to be slaughtered. Who knows what kind of excessive demands those peasants can make? For a noble, asking him for 100 berries is too much. "I have an idea. What do you think? If we tell them that we are willing to recommend the South China Sea Federation to join the ranks of the world's member states, can we get the soldiers back for free?" "Are you crazy? You're recommending them to join the Aristocratic Family Alliance!" "Alas, Sir Duval, we only said that we would recommend them, but when we would recommend them is another matter, and we cannot guarantee whether the recommendation will be effective." "Then will they agree?" "What do they know about the World Government? They still have to rely on us. We can just bribe a few World Government staff members to put on a show. With this bait, it's not too much to send the soldiers back for free. It's not too much to make some concessions in business. Once they fall into our hands, what kind of trouble can they cause? Humph, what's the point of being able to fight? If you want to get involved, you have to rely on power. "
"Hiss~~Brilliant! Let's do this. Use this news to keep them hanging. Hahaha, that means they're just dogs. Brilliant! I, Sir Baker, will be the envoy for this kind of thing." No one wanted to go before there were no benefits, but now that there are benefits, they are scrambling to go. In the end, Sir Bakeron won the status of ambassador of the 20-nation alliance with the slight advantage of being the first to speak, and prepared to set off for the South Sea Federation to let those country people know what means are! In the prisoner-of-war camp, Derrick, who came from a small town, was listening attentively. He was an ordinary prisoner of war in the 20-nation coalition. Because of his good performance and literacy, he was selected as a squad leader, managing soldiers from other countries. All their former superiors were taken to another place for custody, and no news was heard from them. There were many such team leaders, all of whom were selected from the prisoners of war. Their main job was to distribute food and drinking water, as well as to listen to classes and tell stories. The latter two things were something he had never expected. Attending classes means that the South Sea Federation will bring these captains to the classroom to explain some strange ideas, such as everyone is equal, and a good life is built by one's own hands. This was completely contrary to his life experience in the previous 25 years. In the South China Sea, nobles were nobles and poor were poor. How could they be equal? The reason why he could read and write was that his father raised good horses, which were appreciated by the master, so he was given the opportunity to study. Is this considered building a good life with one's own hands? He was a little confused. They even thought this was a scam by the South China Sea Federation, which made them have some inappropriate thoughts. Haha, he is not so easy to fool. But the more the teacher explained to them, the more he was shaken. How come this sounded like the truth? In the South China Sea Federation, the right to education is one of the basic rights of citizens, not a reward from anyone. Everyone is equal in personality. In terms of material, nobles or big businessmen are not equal. But in terms of law, power and obligations, they are equal. This… this… this is just some kind of fantasy. He knew without thinking that if he talked about equality with the noble lord, the lucky ones would get whipped, and the unlucky ones would lose their lives. When the teacher got to this point, a troublemaker in the class questioned him. "What if my master doesn't want to talk to us about equality of personality?" "Then we will use guns and cannons to make him speak! Equality of personality, equality of opportunity, and equality of rights are what we must pursue." For some reason, he could not remember other words clearly, but he remembered the phrase "guns and cannons" immediately. It was like the devil's whisper, and he kept thinking about it in his ears. After a few days, Derrick knew that he could no longer serve the noble master like before, because he had other ideas. Being a dog is not good, being a person is better. In addition to studying, he also began to complete his task seriously, telling stories. Telling stories was even simpler. The South China Sea Federation would hand out a few pages of paper from time to time and ask him to tell them to the team members. The content was not profound, and basically everyone knew it. It was a little interesting and popular science story, and it could even be said to be quite vulgar. Although he didn't know why, Derrick still spoke up. Anyway, since there were no comments in class, it didn't matter if he spoke up. In fact, this was a short story that Noah had specifically asked the publicity staff to write. For people like Derrick who can read, it is easier to be influenced by some ideological things. For ordinary soldiers who can't even read, it is more useful to make some simple, rough short stories and short sentences. The reason why the rebel king was able to attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty was because of that nursery rhyme. Eat his mother, wear his mother, open the gate to welcome the rebel king, and the rebel king will not pay taxes when he comes. Look, the core points out the theme of having food and drink and not being oppressed. The people of the feudal dynasty with low literacy rate ate this way, which is memorable and popular. In history, this routine basically came up with some content in every uprising stage. The revolutionary army was similar, but not as explicit and simple as Li Zicheng's. Instead, they incorporated these contents into some interesting stories, even pornographic stories, so that the surrendered soldiers from the 20 countries in the South China Sea would remember them, take them back, and slowly spread them. This is also a way of ideological liberation. The 20 countries in the South China Sea would never have imagined that someone would put so much effort into the surrendered soldiers, including giving classes and telling stories. In Noah's view, these people were not ordinary prisoners of war, but propagandists. As long as they took these stories, these principles, and these ideas back home, they would spread. This would save the revolutionary army a lot of effort. Now we are just waiting for the 20 countries in the South China Sea to come and redeem the people. This time, it is a win-win situation! However, the winners are just the ordinary soldiers from the 20 countries and the revolutionary army. Chapter 219 War Indemnity Clause Ambassadors from 20 countries arrived at Batlila Island on a luxurious ship, and after submitting their request for a diplomatic meeting... they were taken to a room and placed under house arrest. "Asshole, what an asshole! Don't you know who I am, Sir Baker? I'm here on behalf of the member states of the World Government. You treat me like this, which shows your disdain for the World Government. I want to see your diplomat, get him here quickly!"
When his throat was about to smoke, there was no movement outside. This made him a little scared, thinking that these barbarians would not want to torture him.
