Codex Pirates

Chapter 316 Annihilation

Norton I heard the words of these ministers, but his face was calm. As early as when Smoker suddenly led the team to the prison, he knew that something was wrong. After getting up, all the signs indicated that Morgan William was trying to find a way to get out of prison.

Norton I also knew very well that as long as William was released from prison, he didn't need to do anything. With his prestige alone, the situation in the entire country could be easily rewritten, and with William's domineering and cruelty, he would definitely not let him go. During his imprisonment, he and other ministers who fell into trouble.

Many ministers who are still in the palace still have hope in the end, or, in other words, extravagant hope, hoping that the guards in the palace can resist William's people, and when the navy comes to rescue, Norton I has long since despaired.

A group of rulers who had enjoyed great glory when William was away huddled in the palace, each of them seemed at a loss. It didn't take long for the closed palace door to be opened from the outside again.

William walked in slowly, followed by Akin, Oliver and others, as well as other soldiers from the garrison and defectors.

Seeing William walking into the hall, the ministers took a few steps back in unison, while Norton I stood up from the throne, trying to straighten his back, trying to maintain the dignity of the king of a country, looking down at William: " Morgan William, you traitor, you must be very proud now! You finally got your wish and found an excuse and opportunity to usurp the throne!"

"Proud? You bunch of idiots almost ruined my hard work for several years." William gave Norton I a cold look, and then his eyes swept over a group of trembling ministers. "I want to usurp the throne at any time." It’s all right, what do you think you are? I still need to be proud of you? A pig sitting on the throne is better than you, at least a pig will not do bad things.”

Norton I was already prepared for his end, so he still wanted to maintain his dignity and dignity, but William's words were too hurtful. His face was flushed, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at William, as if he wanted to get rid of him. Like biting off a piece of flesh: "You criminal, don't be complacent for too long, the navy will sooner or later..."

Norton I hadn't finished speaking when a knife flashed across, and his curse came to an abrupt end. He swayed twice as if he was drunk, and then fell to the ground with a "plop", blood spattered from his neck. And his whole head fell off from his body, rolled on the ground, and fell to the feet of the group of ministers. The ministers were frightened and retreated in panic. Some people couldn't bear the torture of fear and begged for mercy loudly like William.

"Ah Jin." William didn't respond, and turned his head to wink at A Jin.

Ajin understood, and led the others out of the palace, to block the palace and restore order to the chaotic palace.

And William turned his head, waited for Ajin and his group to leave and closed the door of the palace, then looked back at the ministers, he sighed: "Under my rule, you only need to show up in the parliament every day, which is already more difficult The ordinary people who work to earn money to support their families are happy countless times. I didn’t confiscate your property, but I just didn’t let you continue to rule this country. Anyway, you can’t rule well. A little bit of the city's environment, and you're going to make it back to the half-dead state it was before."

During William's reign, in addition to severely punishing the nobles on the political level, they did not make it too difficult for these nobles in terms of economy and property. Of course, because William canceled all the original political privileges, and therefore, some people relied on privileges to make profits. Naturally, the business of the nobles can't continue to operate. The business and property of the nobles have shrunk to a certain extent, but their living conditions are still far better than the vast majority of ordinary people.

The ministers looked at the closed palace door, then at William, who was approaching with the words, and obviously harboring malicious intentions, someone shouted in despair: "Why did you do this? We didn't provoke you before, We are the ones who turned you from a sleazy pirate to a nobleman!"

William smiled and said casually: "'I am worried about the arrogance and arrogance of the rich and the inhumanity of the rich, and I am worried about the dissatisfaction of the poor and taking risks, so I want to restrain the rich and help the poor and weak', what Solon said, do you know what it means? ?”

The ministers looked blank, they didn't even know who Solon was.

William was still smiling, but with a disdainful smile: "Even if there is no me, if this country allows you to continue to rule, it will end sooner or later. Either you will end, or you will bring the whole country to end together."

William's suppression of the nobles was not because of hatred for the rich, nor because of great love and compassion, but as a ruler's consideration for maintaining the stability and development of his own regime.

The goals and ambitions of these aristocrats are inconsistent with William's, and they themselves do not play a role in promoting the development of the country. They have huge power and occupy huge social resources. If William doesn't suppress them, who will he suppress?

In this world, radical organizations like the Revolutionary Army have appeared that aim to overthrow the regime by force. A world where personal strength is extraordinary does not mean that there will be no spontaneous resistance from the bottom.

Ordinary people’s fear of the navy, the world government, the king’s aristocrats, and those characters that are too powerful for ordinary people to contend with are, in the final analysis, nothing more than two words, fear of death.

But when ordinary people fall to the point of "death is also death, and big plans are also death", since they all die anyway, it is obvious how to choose.

The navy and the world government are not so easy to be overthrown because of the strong force of force, but like some countries that rely entirely on the world government and navy, as well as the cruel rule of the past authority, they are not so safe. The revolutionary army has overthrown several countries one after another. Such a world government has joined the country.

If William joins forces with this group of nobles, it will look relaxed, but in fact, it will probably not be long before he will be worried about the Revolutionary Army and worry about riots in the country.

Just look at Garp's current experience in the East China Sea. There are many things in this world that cannot be resolved by force.

A faint mist appeared in the palace at some unknown time, and the temperature rose a little. A thin layer of sweat even secreted from the noses of several fatter ministers.

William is too lazy to discuss politics with these short-sighted feudal rulers. He will soon leave the city again. Before dealing with Garp and other navies, defending the city is just a way to die. The first point is to avoid a direct decisive battle with the enemy's main force when you are unprepared and unsure.

The navy headquarters sent four lieutenant generals this time, and even if one was dealt with by William, there are still three left. Among them, Garp is a legendary navy, and his combat power is not inferior to that of the general. Compared with high-end combat power, William and his group Not an opponent at all.

But the East China Sea is William's home field, and there are not enough manpower to be dispatched by the Navy Headquarters. William is not stupid, so he naturally wants to use his own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses, and use the advantages of terrain and manpower to fight a mobile battle, a mushroom war, and kill Karp and others. People's energy and patience finally led them into the ambush that William and others had already arranged to annihilate them.

Under this premise, in order to prevent himself from being absent for a period of time, the nobles would make trouble like they did during his imprisonment, and even intensified their retaliation. He did not intend to keep these people alive.

There will be an update in a while, and I am afraid that everyone will not be able to wait, so I will post these two chapters first.
