The armed forces of the Revolutionary Army grew too fast. Not only in terms of combat power, but also in terms of ideology. Many times, when faced with some things, he would unconsciously follow the method in Noah's book to see the essence through the phenomenon. Just think about it, if this idea spreads across the ocean through radio or other means, and even if one person out of 100 accepts this idea, what will the world become? Seeing that Zefa was still thinking about it, Noah knew that this kind of thing was still difficult for him to accept, so let's get back to the original topic. "Mr. Zefa, we have done so many things in the South China Sea, and none of them are for personal gain. Isn't the fair, just and open approach we have implemented in the South China Sea Federation good? Have you seen that the people in the Federation are living a better and better life? So, you really don't want to join us and become a pure hero of justice who protects the sea?" …… "I'm a marine!" "Well, then can you come to protect the launching ceremony of the Sea Train? It's a great project, and it's a good choice to come and see it with your own eyes. I believe that with General Zefa's presence, the subsequent matters will be much less troublesome, and the people of the South Sea can live a good life one day earlier." "As long as you don't ask me to join the Revolutionary Army, it's still okay to go to Batlila Island. After all, this is the right thing to do." What Mr. Lu Xun said is right. This is true not only in Eastern countries, but also in the rest of the world. People in all parts of the world always like to reconcile and compromise. For example, if you say that the room is too dark and you want to open a skylight, people will definitely not allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof, they will come to reconcile and be willing to open a skylight.
Zefa was very glad that he met this bad guy when he was old. If he was young, he might have followed him. The most terrifying thing about deceiving people is that the other party is telling the truth. After calming down, Zefa left Noah with a lonely back, and walked back to the Nanhai branch, but his pace was a bit fast. Deep down, he didn't want to stay with such a dangerous person for too long. I returned to the office and told my adjutant that I would be attending the groundbreaking ceremony for the sea train on Batlila Island, and asked him to make the arrangements. After thinking for a while, I opened the box again and found a book that I was interested in. If you don't read this carefully, and you run into Noah next time, he will look down on you again. Ha, this is not allowed. Noah returned to the Resurrection Island leisurely. He could not have any connection with the South China Sea Federation now. Time passed, and it was the day for the construction of the sea train. Everyone present looked as if they had known this would happen when they saw Zefa coming. The strong background of the South Sea Federation was already known to everyone. Last time it was CP5, this time it was the former admiral of the navy. Next time it would not be too much to have a navy marshal. The representatives of the Seven Water Cities in the crowd were also extremely excited. The prospects of this project were so good that the entire South China Sea was vying for it, and the Navy was also on board. It was stable, too stable. The big men in the Seven Water Cities must know how popular this project is, and quickly bring money to grab a spot. We have a secret contact like Mr. Adam, so we can definitely grab a high-quality route. The surrounding South China Sea consortiums looked at the representatives of the Seven Water City with great dissatisfaction. Even if the sea train was created by your people, it does not mean that they can come here to make money. Unfortunately, they have no say. Noah specifically reminded that this infrastructure construction must involve external forces, lest the people in Nanhai are greedy and jointly lower the price. Now that we have the funding from the Grand Line, we can break those ideas that they shouldn't have. Don't think that the South China Sea Federation is a victorious country. In front of capital, they can do anything for the sake of profit. The list of gifts Taizog received alone could fill up a drawer. Many people around him were bribed. Some weak-willed revolutionary army cadres were shaken and even helped persuade Tom to change the route. All these people were dealt with by Long. Long was furious. The revolutionary army's cause had just begun to take off, and it encountered such a bad thing, so Xiao Feng was appointed as an internal inspector to investigate the internal personnel who accepted bribes and interfered with the sea train plan. The results of the investigation are not optimistic. Many people have more or less tendencies to be corrupted. The reason why there is no clear defection is that once the identity of the revolutionary army is exposed, it will be a capital crime, and they dare not do it. If the World Government adopts a conciliatory policy in the future, it is likely to give rise to a large number of traitors. Noah has anticipated this, but now the Revolutionary Army's territory is too large and they are seriously short of manpower. He wanted to wait for Princess Otohime to come back and take charge of this matter. No one would be more suitable than her to supervise the internal affairs. But he didn't expect that his faith would be shaken so quickly. Alas, the ideological education was not good enough. Many people came from poor backgrounds, but their revolutionary will was still very firm. Before the establishment of the South China Sea Federation, there was no formal contact with the dignitaries from the outside world. Now that the Federation has been established and has a certain amount of power, the control of thoughts is not strict and they are corrupted by the enemy's sugar-coated bullets. Money and beauty are all-powerful in most worlds. Now that things have come to this, Noah had no choice but to ask Princess Otohime to come back and take charge as soon as possible. He originally wanted her to spend more time with her daughter, what a pity.
He then went to find Long to comfort him in his current state. "Tell me, Noah, is human nature really so unstable?" Well, it can be seen that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to Long. He was not so depressed even when he was beaten like a dog. "Human nature is complex, with both light and darkness. What we are doing is to change the world, and many things are even against human nature. If it were so easy to succeed, the world government would not have ruled the world for 800 years. When thinking about problems, you need to change your perspective. You are the top power in the ocean. As long as you want, money and beauties are at your fingertips, and the temptation of nature can be ignored. But for ordinary people, when living is difficult, they just want to live. When they have enough food to eat, desires will naturally appear. All we can do is guide them, or use higher desires to suppress lower desires. Later, I will write some systems for this aspect and strengthen our thinking. It is a good thing that such a problem has occurred this time. The earlier it is discovered, the earlier it can be solved. It is better than failing at a critical moment. " Having said that, Long Ye understands that this is all he can do. Fighting against temptation and corruption is a long-term struggle, a battle with no end in sight. Chapter 241 Hero of Alabasta With the start of construction of the first sea train route, huge amounts of funds have flowed into the project. The plan this time was to start from both ends, with Tom supervising the overall project while building the locomotive. Franky would be responsible for the end of Batlila Island, and Iceberg would be responsible for the other end, and they would finally meet halfway, which would shorten the time to the maximum extent. It is expected that the first route will be completed in about three months. This is mainly because we are not very proficient in all aspects and the adjustment period will take up a lot of time. The factories of the South Sea Federation began to operate frantically, and countless special sea rails were produced and shipped to the Sobel Kingdom and Batlila Island, allowing Tom to see what the South Sea speed is. The various materials for the sea locomotive were also quickly made. You know, all the previous equipment was polished by Tom himself, but in the South China Sea, these things only need to give the corresponding size and material ratio and wait for delivery. The Revolutionary Army has many high-tech processing factories because of the previous construction and modification of the Bica, and the ability to produce a locomotive part is more than enough. Noah and Long cleared all the islands that were in the way in two days. With one strike of the sword, the route was opened up. The rubble was swept away by the wind, and the efficiency of the project was ridiculously high. Think about the masters in the world of One Piece. If they are used to improve people's livelihood, they all have their own unique skills. Splitting mountains and rocks are child's play. Some of them who can directly shape fruits are masters of construction. For example, Shishi Fruit and the like can be used in the construction industry to build a building a day. There is no need to sell pre-sale houses. Existing houses are sold directly, and private customization is also supported. The sea train project is in full swing, and the base station construction on the other side is also accelerating. This project cannot be recruited from outside, and is supported by the internal funds and manpower of the Revolutionary Army, so the construction progress is a little slow. Every time a base station is built, it looks like a map is lit up when viewed from the Bika. It feels like running around the map in a game, except that it is a little slow. So for now, there is no rush about the base stations. At present, instant messengers are only used by middle and high-level officials within the Revolutionary Army and cannot be distributed to everyone. Radios are also installed in several important bases. Although factories have already stockpiled a large amount of goods, the timing is not right. We cannot take too big a step. We should at least wait until most of the sea train routes are built before popularizing these products. One day, Bica sent a message and asked Noah to go upstairs because there was a problem in the fusion experiment of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit and the Red Road Sign Text. How should I put it? It felt like something that was expected. When I arrived at the laboratory, I saw the doctor holding a pile of papers and muttering to himself. "It shouldn't be like this... How could it be?... Noah, you came just in time. Help me sense the situation of these two fusions." "it is good." It was another experiment. The doctor turned on the instrument with ease. The various mysterious operations made people dizzy. In the end, when the two objects intersected, there was no reaction...
The inside of the Swallow Swallow Fruit is quite active, with a strange property of decomposing and recombining. It seems that the name is indeed wrong. Wouldn't it be more impressive to call it the Material Fruit? The text of the road sign on the other side is completely calm, and there must be no resonance at all. "Doctor, there's no need to try this. The Swallow-Swallow Fruit is fine. This red road sign historical text has no reaction at all." "Hiss~, this piece is indeed different, what should I do?" "I'll go find another historical text." Although the doctor was unwilling to give up, he had wasted so much time without any results. He couldn't just leave the Swallow-Swallow Fruit alone, so he compromised. "alright." This black box is extremely important to the Revolutionary Army. For this purpose, Noah has to make another trip to the Grand Line. I can't go to Wanguo and Wano Country for the time being. Charlotte Linlin has a lot of historical texts, but the Soul Soul Fruit is strange and unpredictable. It's a bit difficult to steal such a big stone silently. In the case of the Beasts Pirates, I have already made an enemy, so I will keep a safe distance from other royal groups for the time being. It’s not appropriate to go to Kaido’s place. Wano Country does have a historical text, but if you go there again, this guy will definitely seek revenge until you’re dead, so it’s better not to attract hatred. Next time, when we gather four general-level forces, we will go and kill him together. He doesn't believe in such things as immortal monsters, and the Fish-Fish Fruit does not have the concept of immortality. Then there are very few options. The World Government must have one, not to mention O'Hara's piece, even if they stumbled upon one on the sea over the years, they could have taken it away. Of course, this option was abandoned directly, just to give Yim a face. There is one in the Sea King class of Fishman Island, but I can't get it and I can't find it. Zou, without the life card of the Fur Tribe, can't find it either. The final choice is only one, which is the Kingdom of Alabasta. There are two pieces of it, one is in the funeral hall of the royal tomb, recording the location of Hades, and the other is in a mysterious place in the desert in the original animation. If possible, Noah hoped that he could find the piece in the desert. After all, it was not good to move things in someone else's funeral temple. No matter how generous Cobra was, he could not accept such a thing. As for the powerful local forces, it seems that there is only one Crocodile. However, it seems that there is no mention of when Crocodile went to Alabasta in the original work. We only know that he had a bounty of 1511 million Beli in 8000 and also got the title of Shichibukai. In fact, it was Noah's fault that Crocodile came to Alabasta. Before attacking Marijoa, in order to lure the enemy away, Noah used the news of Pluto's birth to lure out a bunch of pirates and navy. This is what made Crocodile concerned. After analyzing countless intelligence, he felt that Pluto's hiding place was related to Alabasta, so he came to this country. It's still the same as before, constantly fighting pirates as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and then accidentally stopping in Alabasta, packaging himself as a national hero through some marketing methods. Overall, Crocodile is a brave and resourceful person in the One Piece world. He is bold, cunning, scheming, and detail-oriented. The most amazing thing is that he can make full use of opposing emotions to incite rebellion in this country. Without having read the book written by Noah, he ignited the conflict between the interests of the Nefertari royal family and the common people, and then used the personality he had created over the years to win over the hearts of the people and stand on the side of the people. This is indeed amazing. The biggest mistake of such people is to try to use external forces to achieve the throne of Pirate King in the world of One Piece. The definition of Pirate King is more inclined to be the freest person on the sea. Chapter 242 The man who became the Pirate King This desert is so huge. Under the scorching sun, Noah was a little distressed. How could he find such a large area? Luffy was really lucky, he could fall without any signs, he also wanted this ability to create accidents. Think about it, Crocodile has been here for so many years and has not been found, but two appeared after Luffy came. I feel sad for him. At present, I can think of two stupid ways. One is to use the Observation Haki and use the Door-Door Fruit to shuttle across the desert and conduct human detector scanning. The second is to drive the Bika over and use the Bika's Magnetic-Magnetic Fruit base station to conduct full coverage detection. The second one needs to be applied for. Now Bica's position cannot be easily moved. Many instant communicators are in working state. If Bica comes to the Grand Line, the communication in the South China Sea will be temporarily paralyzed. We can only switch back to Den Den Mushi, which will not have a good impact. After thinking for a long time, Noah decided to use the first method. The area covered by his observation Haki was not small, and the spatial displacement function of the Men Men Fruit was also very powerful. He might as well think of himself as a scanner.
So a new desert legend emerged. It was said that someone saw a mysterious figure in the sky above the desert, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye. More than one person said this, and several people who traveled through the desert saw it. After thinking about this, Cobra decided to send Bell, the strongest warrior of the Alabasta Kingdom, to explore. Although this Bell is close to a master in terms of appearance and portrayal, he is advertised as possessing one of the "five world-recognized flying abilities". I can only say that he is a good person, very gentle, and has a spirit of sacrifice, but his strength... He was defeated by Robin who just appeared, and his record is really not impressive. After receiving the king's order, Bell immediately flew out of the palace and headed for the desert. At the same time, Crocodile also received the message. The desert was his home ground, so he certainly couldn't let others run wild. He also quietly went to the desert to investigate. It's not that he doesn't want others to investigate. It's just that the strength of his subordinates is still relatively weak. His company was established not long ago, and there are no talents who can take charge of the matter independently, so he can only do it himself. Bell flew over the desert and kept scanning the sky with his eyes, but he found nothing. After flying for a day, he returned to the palace to report. "King, there is nothing in the desert. It is possible that the travelers are hallucinating in the desert." "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Bell." Cobra did not take this matter to heart afterwards. Alabasta had been peaceful for a long time and nothing special had happened for a long time. Also because of the special status of the Nefertari clan, the World Government would not cause trouble for them and they had long lost their vigilance. This is also the reason why Crocodile later robbed his country. If a normal king saw that there was a powerful force in his country that was not under his control and had a good reputation among the people, he would need to be vigilant. On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly. Although Bell went back, Crocodile did not. In addition to wisdom, his forbearance and patience are also commendable. Someone who can forbear for many years and prepare for everything before launching the plan to steal the country can still do it after searching for a few more days. In some ways, Crocodile and Noah are really similar. They are both detail-oriented, like to lay the groundwork, know how to find contradictions, and attach great importance to strategy. Unfortunately, Lao Sha’s strength is still a little lacking, and his understanding of the truth of the world is not enough. The direct disadvantage of poor strength is that he was easily beaten by Whitebeard, and now he was discovered by Noah in the first place. To say that Crocodile has no Haki is probably due to the plot. People without Haki can't survive in the New World. At least Observation Haki is a must. As for whether it degenerated in the later period or given up, it is unknown. At this time, the sand crocodile was patrolling the desert with the Sand-Sand Fruit and Observation Haki, but Noah in the sky wanted to laugh when he saw the sandstorm surging underground. Old Sand's Sand-Sand Fruit didn't cover it in the sky, and his Observation Haki was also a bit weak. He opened a door directly to the ground. "Hey, isn't this Crocodile, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the great hero of Alabasta, taking a stroll in the desert so late at night?" Crocodile's heart sank. This time he was discovered by the enemy first. They also knew about the great hero of Alabasta and knew a lot of intelligence about him. After another look, his pupils shrank! Although Noah looked ordinary, many people did not recognize him at first. But Crocodile was not among them. How could a man who aspires to become the Pirate King, a man who loves to gather intelligence, not know this world enemy whose power dominates the sea? "Noah of the Revolutionary Army, what brings you to Alabasta?" "I can't come?" "Humph, Alabasta does not welcome you. Your arrival will only bring destruction. The people here live well. Please leave this country immediately." I'll go, Lao Sha, do you think I'm brainless, Lao Sha? "The great hero really cares about the people here. Well, I'll go look for Hades somewhere else."
! "Wait, you said Pluto? Do you know where it is?" Noah was very pleased to see Crocodile's broken face. He told him to pretend to be the vanguard of justice, but when he heard Pluto, he was exposed. Seeing Crocodile, Noah thought of a third solution, which was to use the Sand-Sand Fruit to find the historical text.
