One Piece: I Am the Revolutionary Army
Chapter 141: Flower City
After landing on Onigashima, Roja used his powerful observation Haki and the ability to hear the voices of all things to ensure that there were no escaped remnants on the island except for the Kaido Pirates in prison. In addition, the signal jammer developed by Vegapunk covered the entire Onigashima, basically eliminating the possibility of external contact.
"How is it?" Seeing Roya coming, Whitebeard laughed as if showing off.
"Very strong." Luo Ya gave a thumbs up and praised: "That punch even surprised me."
This is a lot of praise, especially for an ally like Whitebeard, he really performed extremely well. The power he showed was like a crushing blow and easily defeated the Kaido Pirates. With his prestige, if the news is released, it is estimated that the navy will not dare to easily set foot in this place.
Previously, Roya was worried that the World Government might send a fleet to deal with Whitebeard, but now it seems that the World Government does not want to easily provoke Whitebeard who is in his peak state. He is like a moving disaster, and anyone who encounters him will feel extremely headache. If it is at sea, no matter how many fleets there are, I am afraid that he will not be able to fight alone.
In this world, the power of nature is the most terrifying. In his prime, the size of the Golden Lion's fleet even exceeded that of the Rocks Pirates. But even so, the once-in-a-century Etwal tsunami directly destroyed his fleet. Let's put it this way, if the Golden Lion's pirate fleet had not been annihilated in that naval battle, the current situation in the world might be even more serious for the World Government.
The destruction of the Golden Lion Pirates made the World Government breathe a sigh of relief. At least dozens of large warships no longer had to worry about guarding against him.
However, this also brought another side effect. If Roger had not been able to eliminate the Golden Lion Pirates at that time, then the Revolutionary Army would have to face this pirate alliance in the future. The Revolutionary Army could not win over evil forces like the Golden Lion Pirates and must strike them down. There is no doubt about this.
Just like when Roya was in the harsh environment of the Realm of the Gods, even though he was in a critical situation, he firmly rejected the cooperation proposals from the Golden Lion and the Five Elders.
When Whitebeard asked about the next move, strangely, this usually extremely arrogant man habitually asked for advice from Roja. This attitude made the members of the Whitebeard Pirates secretly smack their lips, after all, even when facing Roger, Whitebeard had never shown such an attitude.
But if you think about it carefully, you can understand it. After just a few days of getting along, Marco and others learned more about Roya's deeds through communication with the revolutionary soldiers, and they admired him more and more. After all, the reports in the newspapers were too brief and separated by a layer of distance. The personal experience and the stories of those who have experienced it personally made Roya's image more vivid and profound.
They also gradually understood why Zefa, Kuzan and other high-ranking navy officers resolutely joined the Revolutionary Army and were willing to obey Roya's command. Having experienced the same hardships and being redeemed from the bottom of society by Whitebeard, Marco and his friends deeply felt this emotional resonance. Father Whitebeard saved them who were abandoned by the world, and Roya saved a group of people with similar circumstances.
Therefore, when Whitebeard asked about the next step, the Whitebeard Pirates members, including Marco, were just like him, expecting Roja to give new instructions.
"You have already helped a lot. Let us take care of the rest." Luo Ya expressed his gratitude.
He added: "However, I would like to ask you again, Newgate, are you really unwilling to join our revolutionary army?"
Roya noticed that Whitebeard was a little moved by this, so he asked this question again. After all, Kaido has been captured, and Wano Country is about to fall into the hands of the Revolutionary Army. The Whitebeard Pirates are probably going to leave here. They are pirates, they will not stay in one place for too long, and they need to continue sailing.
Hearing this question, Whitebeard looked around at his companions, then pondered for a moment and answered seriously: "I'm sorry, Mr. Roya, we are used to a free life. If we join the Revolutionary Army, I'm afraid neither side will be happy."
"And I personally don't reject ocean life. My voyage with these children isn't over yet. Give me another two or three years. When my voyage is over in two years, maybe I'll consider joining the Revolutionary Army. It's not impossible."
"Also, although we have not joined the Revolutionary Army yet, we will always be allies. As long as you need us, no matter where the Whitebeard Pirates are, we will immediately come to support you."
Whitebeard smiled proudly: "Next time the Revolutionary Army attacks Marijoa, remember to call us. I have long wanted to fight the Five Elders face to face."
"No problem, the Revolutionary Army always welcomes you." Roya extended a hand of friendship.
The two giants held hands tightly, just like they were meeting for the first time.
"Speaking of which, we don't want to leave in the short term. Mr. Roya won't chase us away, right?" Whitebeard joked. He was not in a hurry to leave. He wanted to witness with his own eyes how Roya transformed Wano Country. At the same time, he also wanted to leave a way out for those samurai who were close to Oden. If they came for help, Whitebeard could still help them. But he knew that Roya was not a cruel person and would not kill people at will.
"Of course there will be no problem, you can stay as long as you want." Roya replied with a smile, he was indeed very happy to accept Whitebeard and his party. Moreover, although Whitebeard did not officially join the Revolutionary Army, his promise was sincere, and Roya believed in Whitebeard's promise.
The Revolutionary Army now has a powerful ally - the Whitebeard Pirates. In comparison, the Roger Pirates can only be considered half an ally. After all, Roger's life span is short and it is almost impossible for him to spare the energy to do other things.
Roya thought to himself that Jin was not a scheming old fox like Kaido, and he did not have that kind of sinister and cunning nature.
While in prison, he showed unusual excitement about the emergence of the revolutionary army, which attracted Roya's special attention.
The Revolutionary Army does lack combat effectiveness, which is a problem that Roja cannot completely solve in a short period of time. Facing the powerful lineup of the World Government, which has accumulated hundreds of years of experience, including generals, candidate generals, elite lieutenant generals, CP organizations and the Knights of God, the Revolutionary Army faces severe challenges.
Luo Ya was still confident about the improvement of the grassroots soldiers. By improving the food, strengthening the training, and revising and publishing the physical training manual and the sword training manual that was planned to be followed up, he was sure that within one to two years, the strength of the grassroots soldiers of the Revolutionary Army could reach the level of competing with the well-trained soldiers of the regular navy, and even with higher organization and more advanced weapons and equipment, it was possible to gain an advantage.
However, it is difficult to improve strength at the level of vice admiral and above through training alone, especially the strength of the admiral level, which is basically formed after a long period of screening and elimination. The reason why Roja spared no effort to win over Whitebeard is precisely because of the importance and scarcity of such top strongmen.
If he hadn't seen through Kaido's inner cunning, he might have really tried to win over Kaido. Jin is a character that must be won over. Once he grows up, he can at least reach the combat power close to the level of an admiral. This level of strength cannot be achieved quickly in a short period of time, nor is it a height that many people can achieve in their lifetime, such as Nagli.
Luo Ya was thinking about the matter regarding Jin when Aokiji walked up to him.
"Mr. Luoya, we have almost completed the survey of the specific terrain of Onigashima." Kuzan handed him a map.
"This picture is drawn very carefully." Whitebeard took a glance and couldn't help but admire it.
This map not only depicts the basic topography of Onigashima, but also comes with a large amount of annotation information, giving people a comprehensive and intuitive understanding of Onigashima. The Revolutionary Army was able to find out the details of Onigashima in less than an hour and produce such a detailed map report, which made Whitebeard almost unbelievable. Even within the navy, there is rarely such execution and organization.
The Revolutionary Army is indeed a magical army.
Roya looked at the map and said, "Onigashima is smaller than expected, only about five square kilometers, surrounded by mountains. The huge skull in the middle is a natural wonder, blending in with the surrounding mountains. There is only one main entrance leading to Onigashima, which is the direction of the Whitebeard Pirates' direct attack."
Therefore, there is not much space available for fighting. The resources of Onigashima itself are not valuable, and the surrounding climate is not friendly. However, Roja is not very interested in Onigashima. What really matters to him is the vast fertile land of Wano Country.
So he didn't dwell too much on the survey of the terrain, and instead asked about the progress of the interrogation: "How is the interrogation of the Kaido Pirates members and cadres who were escorted here going?"
"Based on our summary and comparison of the interrogation investigation reports of fifty of Kaido's subordinates and five cadres, we can confirm that Kaido's pirate group did not plant any secret agents in Wano Country." Kuzan responded.
"Consistent with our previous speculation, the cooperation between Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi seems to be equal at present. In fact, the armed forces controlled by Kurozumi Orochi are stronger than Kaido's pirate group. In addition, the samurai forces in various parts of Wano Country should not be underestimated. Kaido's pirate group currently has no intention of interfering with the main island of Wano Country."
"What's the situation at the factory?" Luo Ya remembered the factory mentioned in the previous intelligence and the possible external transactions.
"This factory is part of the cooperation between Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi. There are many craftsmen in Wano Country with superb skills. Kurozumi Orochi is responsible for providing craftsmen and labor, while Kaido is responsible for building the factory and handling external transactions." Kuzan explained.
"The factory mainly produces and manufactures firearms and swords. In addition, it also produces seastone weapons unique to Wano Country."
"Seastone?" Luo Ya was slightly surprised. "I thought seastone was a crystal of the sea, extracted from seawater. How could it be a specialty of Wano Country? I remember that on Sky Island, the people of Sky Island said that the seawater contains some kind of keratin particles called PYROBROIN, which are brought into the sky by volcanic eruptions and combine with water vapor to form different types of Sky Island clouds."
"Indeed, for some reason there is a large amount of seastone in Wano Country. The craftsmen here have mastered the skills to forge it into the size of a nail, and can even control the purity of the seastone. This also makes seastone weapons an important commodity for Kaido's foreign trade."
"So, who are these transaction partners?" Luo Ya asked.
"It's mainly some kings of the underground world. When the factory produces and accumulates a certain amount of weapons, Kaido will send ships to sell them. So far, such transactions have only been carried out three times because the factory in Wano Country has not been established for a long time."
"Is Kurozumi Orochi also involved in these transactions?" Luo Ya asked again.
"According to the arrested cadres and subordinates, Kurozumi Orochi was not involved in this transaction, and there was a mentality of mutual vigilance in the cooperation between the two parties. In addition, Kurozumi Orochi was influenced by the idea of isolation, and they had no intention of opening up international trade." Aokiji glanced at the interrogation report in his hand and gave the answer.
"That's great. The troops will rest for a day and then set out tomorrow. Our destination is the Flower City!" Luo Ya gave the order decisively.
"Yes, sir." Aokiji smiled.
"Oh, Kuzan, please make some arrangements. Pay more attention to Jhin's situation and send him some books about our philosophy. Observe his reaction. If he is interested, you can
