Become a revolutionary mentor from a pirate

The existence of Nika in this world is the belief of many races, and even the existence of the sun god is included in the legends of the giants.

Beat the drum of liberation and bring laughter to people.

To a certain extent, this meaning is to give hope to people in suffering, but it is also this practice of placing hope in God that will lead to the effect of boiling frogs in warm water.

Facing oppression, suffering, and a world where life is worse than death, people think that one day in the future a liberation fighter named Nika will appear to save everyone and bring laughter to everyone.

Patience, persistence, misery...

Because I have such an illusory sustenance, I choose to wait for God’s redemption.

But this kind of world is not the world Kevin wants.

Suffering is not worthy of praise, and God should not exist, even if this God can really bring laughter to people at this point in time.

As for liberation…

Kevin feels that the so-called liberation of Nika is not real liberation.

Just like a few years ago, he began to realize that even if Mariejoia was destroyed and all the Celestial Dragons died, the world would still start over again.

…

In the rainy land of Alabasta, Crocodile spent two years opening a luxurious casino here.

It's just that the sand crocodile still hasn't shown its fangs. Although this country is still suffering from drought all year round, the people can still survive due to Kobra's kindness.

At the gambling table, the blind swordsman is placing bets.

I didn't use the Haki of seeing and hearing to cheat, but just enjoyed this feeling.

Soon, Kevin discovered that Yixiao lost less and won more, and the chips quickly increased.

"It seems that you are lucky today. The losers in the past two days couldn't even afford the meal."

Yixiao lowered his head and looked at the dice cup on the table: "Have you finished your work? This ability is really convenient and can save a lot of time."

Kevin replied: "A lot of people have said the same thing as you."

"Bang."

The gambler on the side slapped his hand on the table. He was wearing a turban and was a native of Alabasta.

"Blind man, hurry up and place your bet! We are all waiting!"

He smiled without anger, touched the chips in front of him, left two chips, and then put them all on.

This attitude made the gamblers around them widen their eyes.

"How can this blind man play such a big game?"

"He must be sure!"

"When the dice cup was shaking just now, I saw his ears move."

"Is it so powerful?"

"Quick, quick, we can't place bets right now."

…

For a time, a lot of chips were placed in the same position as Yixiao.

There is no betting on points, just size.

Such a scene made the dealer swallow his saliva, but at this time, the dice in the dice cup turned over.

At the same time, the banker's expression also relaxed.

"open."

Naturally, everyone who followed Yixiao and bet lost this time.

"How can it be?!"

"No more! No more!"

"my money……"

Someone collapsed directly to the ground: "That's... the money I spent to buy grain seeds! I lost, I lost! What should I do?"

However, the next moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Yixiao, his eyes bloodshot: "It's all you! You pay my money!"

Yixiao lowered his head and replied: "I don't seem to want you to place bets with me."

However, a group of gamblers are already red-eyed.

"You bastard blind man! Pay money!"

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost the money I spent on the seeds!"

"He still has two chips, grab them!"

"And that knife should be worth some money too!"

Seven or eight gamblers gathered around and laughed, but behind them, Kevin was still quietly watching the various behaviors of all living beings, without any intention of intervening.

Sometimes suffering does not mean kindness. People's hearts are unpredictable, and people's desires are also endless.

There is very little rainfall in this country. Although the land area is very large, and the Neferutari family is considered kind as a royal family, its people are still not rich, and can even be said to be poor.

But even so, desire can drive them to gamble with the only money they have.

"Bang bang bang."

The gaming table was slapped, and the banker, who was no longer in a panic, looked at the gamblers with disdain.

"Are you sure you want to cause trouble here? This place...is the territory of Lord Crocodile, the Seventh Warrior of the Sea!"

Just a name can intimidate several people.

"Of course, no one can cause trouble in Yuyan, but it's none of our business outside of here."

Several gamblers looked at each other, then glared viciously and smiled before turning and leaving.

The dealer looked at the two people in front of him with disdain on his face: "You still have two chips? Do you want to continue?"

Yixiao shook his head slightly: "No. My friend is here, and I left two chips below in order to return the invitation. Naturally, I can't lose them."

After saying that, he stood up and struck the ground with his blind stick and sword: "Your Majesty, please give me your respect."

The two of them turned to leave Yu Yan, but as soon as they went out, they were stopped by the seven or eight gamblers who had just arrived.

Kevin sighed, and his eyes were slightly focused, which shocked several people.

As he passed by, Kevin said: "Nine times out of ten you bet, you lose. Such a big casino is not a good place. Sometimes you can win not because of luck, but if you lose completely, it is also not because of luck."

…

It's still the same restaurant in Yudi as before, and it's still a simple bowl of soba noodles per person.

The blind swordsman ate happily, and his face, which was slightly ferocious due to the wound on his eye, also became a little inexplicably happy at this moment.

"Snapped."

Put down the chopsticks.

Yixiao nodded slightly: "I've finished eating."

After saying that, he waited quietly until Kevin put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth before speaking: "Why did you leave such advice just now?"

"advice?"

Kevin smiled and said: "Advice will be listened to, but they won't really understand the meaning of what I say."

Yixiao frowned: "You don't look down on me? No, as your Excellency, you are willing to leave what you just said, which is not a look down upon."

Kevin replied: "It's not because they look down, but because they...or nearly 90% of ordinary people in this world, they don't have the ability to effectively distinguish between good and evil."

"A casino is established to make wealth. This is the fundamental purpose. Based on this, there is no need to guess what the outcome of a gambler will be."

After finishing his words, Yixiao thought for a while.

After a while, he said: "Your Excellency's status can be said to be top-notch in this sea, but you are particularly concerned about me, a person who cannot see... Can you tell me why?"

Kevin replied in a deep voice: "Because of your abilities, you may have a great impact on the future of this world. In addition, you have been avoiding the true side of this world in your heart, haven't you?"

"But Mr. Yixiao, the world will not change because of your escape, nor will it change because of everyone's waiting."

"After all these years, Mr. Yixiao still seems to have not found the direction he should take, doesn't he?"

direction?

The blind swordsman smiled and his heart tightened.

Where exactly is your direction?

Everywhere you go, everything you see and hear is darkness, and this world seems to have no light at all.

People who just want to live cannot live well, and people who just want to be full can't even afford a bottle of milk...

In contrast, pirates who committed crimes, slave traders who trafficked people, and ambitious people who tried to overthrow the kingdom were able to stand high and proud.

He has seen old people who had to die because of gold in the sky, and he has also seen middle-aged men who sacrificed their lives for their children, but could not get back a bottle of milk...

I have also seen pirates who burned, killed and looted, and the navy was equally bad.

He has a lot of force, but he can only wander around, destroy his eyesight, and can't even see the way forward clearly.

"It's a blessing not to be able to see things. There are too many dirty and despicable people in the world that people can't bear to look at."

Yixiao murmured to himself, then raised his head and looked at Kevin blindly: "The Revolutionary Army... Your Excellency once took action to kill six world nobles, which I admire very much. But... I still don't know if the Revolutionary Army will is the right way."

Kevin stood up and put his hand on the blind swordsman's shoulder.

"Then take a look."

As soon as the words fell, except for a few Baileys on the table, the two of them had disappeared.

…

The country on the bridge over the East China Sea is the wolf.

Two years ago, after the 112 people of the revolutionary army lurking here were discovered, the entire Taqila Wolf revolutionary army retreated in all directions.

But as one of the core points of darkness in this world, the revolutionary army will naturally not give up here.

In more than two years, another group of people floated into the Taqila Wolf.

They include overseers and merchants, and some even lurk among the slaves.

Normally, they would subtly tell the core of some ideas, and they would also form a night school to tell the slaves in the area they were responsible for about the outside world, and at the same time inspire them with facts one by one.

Under night, a hidden place under a bridge pier.

Under the dim light, pages from the New Times were pasted on the blackboard, and a lecturer from the Revolutionary Army was narrating the reports on the pages.

"This country is also in the East China Sea, and its location is southwest of Taqira Wolf..."

"In the early morning of March 12th, a group of pirates attacked them. Three towns were massacred and all their belongings were looted."

"The kingdom's guards only showed up three days later and were only responsible for burying all the corpses."

"This pirate group was wiped out by the revolutionary army a month later. According to their oral account, they reached an agreement with the king of this kingdom to reduce the payment of heavenly gold by reducing the population."

Having said this, the lecturer looked under the podium.

"Now, you can ask any questions you want. Remember, any questions."

However, a minute passed and no one raised their hand to ask a question.

"This is your first lesson, but I think you need to know that you can only see the essence of something clearly by asking questions."

"Nothing in this world is taken for granted. Only by raising your own doubts can you distinguish right from wrong."

This time, a middle-aged man raised his hand.

Then he asked: "We are just slaves. We can't help them. Instead of thinking about this, we should think about how to get a bottle of milk tomorrow. I heard that children's diseases will get better after drinking milk."

The lecturer on the stage did not refute, but nodded and said: "A doctor will come to see you tomorrow. If you have any illness, please tell me and I will help you. Milk can only provide nutrition, but it cannot have a therapeutic effect." of."

At this point, when the middle-aged man was about to thank him, the lecturer said, "So there is no benefit for me to help you, but why would I help you without asking for anything in return?"

The middle-aged man wanted to thank him with tears, but he was choked back for a while.

After a while, the lecturer continued, "I... come from the country I just mentioned, and I am also the only survivor of the three towns that were massacred."

For a moment, everyone was stunned and stared at the podium blankly.

"So do you have any questions now?"

This time, some people finally began to raise doubts one after another.

For example, Tian Shangjin, for example, allied countries and non-allied countries, for example, the massacre of pirates, for example, why the teacher helped them...

In a class, Kevin and the blind swordsman in the corner listened to it from beginning to end.

After the class, Kevin took him away again and came to a construction site of the Taiqila Wolf.

The old man died of overwork and was thrown directly into the sea.

The middle-aged man knelt down and begged for medicine, praying to save his child. His wife held the child and kept touching the ground with her head, and the blood dyed the stones on the ground red.

However, the supervisor's words were full of coldness.

The most common thing in the Taiqila Wolves is slaves, and the most lacking is food and medicine. If you want these, you have to exchange them with money.

A young man couldn't bear it and took out the gold ring he had been hiding.

But then, he was prepared to be executed immediately by the supervisor for hiding property.

"Bang."

The supervisor's head fell to the ground, followed by a flash of light, and all the supervisors in this construction area were killed in just thirty seconds.

The blood dyed the bridge red, and Yixiao's hand holding the handle of the knife relaxed.

"What are you going to do?"

"Mr. Yixiao needs to send everyone to the boat under the bridge pier."

The gravity knife was unsheathed, and the stones under everyone's feet floated in the air for a while, and they landed safely on the boat under the bridge pier in panic.

(Note: Fujitora's gravity can be applied by objects, such as the gravity knife, but it does not seem to act directly on people. The gravity acting on Zoro is on the ground.)

Then Kevin disappeared and reappeared, bringing a small team of the Revolutionary Army to transfer everyone.

On the bridge, the blind swordsman reached out and touched the bridge: "East Sea Taiqila Wolf, I have heard of this place."

Kevin: "But if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't really understand the despair that is filled here, right? Two years ago, 112 people of the Revolutionary Army were exposed here and discovered by the World Government, and two of the highest powers on Mary Geoise came."

Hearing this, he smiled and was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Then it should be your Excellency who won, and I am very happy with this ending."

Kevin stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder again, and the two disappeared again.

It was also a hidden classroom, but the attitudes and expressions of the people on the podium and in the audience had changed fundamentally.

There was also a page of the New Era newspaper on the blackboard.

After the lecturer explained the free discussion, a young man stood up directly under the podium: "The King of the Kingdom of Zelsey in the North Sea dug up the plague bones buried deep underground two years ago in order to reduce the population and reduce the payment of heavenly gold, causing the entire country to become a place of death!"

"The king here is stupid and the people are pathetic! I am angry at their lack of struggle and sad at their misfortune!"

"Only by standing up and resisting can we survive!"

"The ultimate reason is the existence of heavenly gold. The world nobles hold the power of this world and have the navy and the military force of the world government!"

"So only when all the oppressed unite can we have hope for the future and can we truly live!"

"Only by strengthening the inner will can we become strong. We are people, not slaves!"

...

In the heated discussion, the whole cause and effect of the outbreak of the plague in the Kingdom of Zelsey in the North Sea was analyzed clearly by everyone from the root.

Behind the incident, the oppressors and the oppressed, the military force of the world government, and how the oppressed should have the power to resist were extended.

During this process, the blind swordsman used his Observation Haki to discover that nearly half of these ordinary people in the past had awakened their Haki.

Kevin took him and disappeared again.

The North Sea, the former site of Ferefance.

In the town that looked like a ruin, there was not even a single animal.

Platinum-lead disease affects the genes of organisms, not just humans.

The two walked on the quiet street, and Kevin said, "This place used to be very prosperous, because the wealth brought by platinum-lead mines fed the nobles and also enabled ordinary people to enjoy the overflowing wealth."

"In fact, I knew about the existence of this disease before the outbreak of platinum-lead disease. But do you know why I didn't come to save them at that time?"

"Mr. Yixiao, what if it was you? Would you come here in advance and let them leave this white town?"

The blind swordsman frowned and thought for a long time.

Finally, he replied: "According to the content of the New Era, Perkins disease seems to have penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Even if they were allowed to leave before the outbreak, they would still be unable to escape the fate of dying from the disease."

Kevin nodded slightly: "Yes. But the fruit of the operation that can eradicate Perkins disease also came to this place at that time."

"A child who was only in his early teens took on the fate of saving everyone's lives, even if he was tired and vomited blood, he never gave up."

"Trafalgar D. Rowe. This child has courage that adults don't have, and he also has the motivation to dare to resist the so-called fate."

"The Kingdom of Zersi in the North Sea that we just heard about was also led by this child and rescued all the survivors."

Yixiao was silent for a while, and then asked: "So even if you come here in advance at that time, it will not help, right?"

Kevin: "Yeah, even if they come in advance, no one will believe what I said about lead disease. Because a prosperous life will prevent ordinary people from seeing the truth clearly, and because they can't think..."

think?

Yixiao recalled the two lessons he had seen before.

Comparing the before and after, it seems that he understands what the revolutionary army is working towards.

Let ordinary people learn to think, learn to investigate the essence of something, and learn to distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil.

Yes, he is different from ordinary people in being able to become a strong man. He is able to awaken his domineering power and strengthen his inner will to the point where he has cultivated his domineering power to the point where he is a strong man. He is unique.

Because he can think, and precisely because he can think, he cannot bear the darkness of this world and closes his eyes autistically.

But... what if everyone in this world learned to think?

The second lecture was different from the previous one. Most of the ordinary people who had awakened their Haki seemed to have given him the answer.

At this moment, the blind swordsman's heart was trembling, because he seemed to have found his own way.

Kevin looked at him: "Sometimes the hearts of adults are not as firm as those of children. They have simple thoughts, as long as they can survive. They leave their fate in the hands of others without any thought of resistance..."

"Mr. Yixiao, you have closed your eyes because of the darkness of this world. You have great power but have never thought of changing the world. Why?"

Without waiting for a smile to answer, Kevin followed up: "Because of the power of the navy? Because of the power of the world government? Or because the entire world is in a state of decay and is beyond repair?"

For a moment, the blind swordsman's hand clenched the handle of the knife, and his emotional excitement caused pieces of gravel to slowly float into the air on the empty site of Ferevans.

"Boom! Boom boom..."

The gravel fell to the ground, and he laughed self-deprecatingly: "I...it turns out that I have always been a timid and cowardly person."

Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly.

"A world without hope will make people sink, and I can't bear this darkness just because I have seen the real light."

True light?

He opened his eyes with a smile, his pupils turned white.

He cannot see anything, and all he can perceive is the information fed back by the color haqi.

"True light..."

Kevin replied after hearing this: "It's not perfect, but it's the best future I can think of. This world has supernatural power, and I will do my best, even if it means giving my life, to change the world."

On the empty street, Kevin talked about the past of Feifansi and what the revolutionary army had done.

Yixiao was very interested in the child who was far more courageous than an adult.

"I really want to take a look at Mr...."

He raised his head with a smile, feeling the sunshine that was different from the night in the East China Sea: "From the information in the New Times and the reward order, you must be very young, right? He is so young but is involved in a great cause and does not succumb to the darkness of this world... "

"What kind of person are you? What is the color of your hair and how do you look? It would be great if these eyes were not closed. I want to see your face. You should have a gentle face."

"Kind and brave... In contrast, people like me who are timid and cowardly are really ashamed to live in this world."

"Trafalgar D. Rowe, that child is only over fourteen years old now, isn't he? In comparison, I am not as courageous as this child."

After the words fell, Kevin frowned.

Under the domineering attitude, it seems that the other party's will is disintegrating.

…
