The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

Chapter 73: Self-Defense Forces

The revolutionaries drove their warships towards the port, and as expected, they saw the pirate ship of the roving pirates.

"Move the boat to the shore. We must not let those pirates escape." Crow ordered on the boat.

Following Crow's order, the revolutionary warship slowly sailed into the harbor. A new warship formed a sharp contrast with the other large and small broken ships in the harbor.

"Leave some people on the boat to watch the port. The rest of you come off the boat with me, and we must find those pirates." Crow said to everyone.

The arrival of the revolutionaries also caused ripples in this dilapidated port. When the revolutionaries arrived at the port, the surrounding eyes made the people who had just disembarked a little puzzled.

Crow led the team through the port. This dilapidated city was indeed a good place to hide, and the revolutionaries had to spend a lot of effort to search. And looking at these newcomers of the revolutionaries, there were countless greedy eyes staring at them.

Fortunately, under the threat of the crow's ferocious eyes, these malicious people did not dare to act rashly. Moreover, with the revolutionary warships blocking the port, the pirates were already unable to escape, and it was only a matter of time to find them.

"Comrade Crow, we have searched the whole town except for one slum. However, our comrades have discovered another city on the other side of the island.

The city is surrounded by a wall. It is possible that the pirates have fled to another city. "A member of the Revolutionary Party said.

After thinking for a moment, Crow replied, "Let's go to the slums first. If we don't find it, we'll consider the next step."

"Then be careful. I heard from the locals that there's a big guy in the slums who's not easy to deal with. It's because of him that those villains dare not covet that area." The revolutionary party member reminded again.

After Crow nodded, he led everyone to search the slum. Because there were so many people and the noise was so loud, the legendary big guy from the slum was attracted.

Just when the crow met the big guy, maybe because the big guy had offended someone before, suddenly, a sharp stone flew out from somewhere and hit the big guy in the face.

This stone obviously couldn't hurt the big guy, so he just used his heavy palm to block the stone.

However, he seemed to have misunderstood something, and when he looked at the crow, he actually thought that it was the crow's people who did it. Of course, it could also be because the crow's face was too ferocious.

The big guy rushed directly towards the crows, trying to stop them. However, the crows misunderstood and thought that the guy was going to attack. After all, a little giant nearly 7 meters tall rushing towards him would make anyone panic.

When the big guy was about to rush in front of him, Crow shouted, "Hurry up." to remind the people behind him. At the same time, Crow used the power of the devil fruit, transformed into a group of black crows, ran towards the route of the big guy, appeared beside him to interfere with his actions.

"A devil fruit user." The big guy exclaimed and paused, but he was not too panicked.

Under Crow's solemn gaze, a transparent ball of light appeared in the big guy's hand, and an air shock wave was ejected fiercely, rushing straight towards Crow. Crow immediately used the power of the devil fruit to disperse and dodge the attack.

The shock wave directly hit the open space behind, creating a small pit. After using the power of the devil fruit to dodge the shock wave, the crows gathered together again and appeared right in front of the big guy, and the two confronted each other again.

"If you guys dare to come again, I won't be polite." The big guy didn't attack again, but chose to intimidate. It might be because he was not sure of winning, and fighting again would only result in losses for both sides.

After hearing what the big guy on the opposite side said, Crow knew that the other party had misunderstood him, so he stretched out his hands to indicate that he didn't want to fight anymore and wanted to take the revolutionaries away from the area.

As for the group of pirates they were chasing, Crow had already determined that they were not in this slum area, but should have fled to the city on the other side of the island as another member of the Revolutionary Army who had previously investigated had said.

At this moment, a woman ran into the middle of the confrontation between the two men. After seeing the woman, the big guy also cancelled the flashing bubbles in his hand.

The woman panted and said, "Big Bear, you are wrong. They are not the king's lackeys." Then the woman turned to the crow and said, "I'm sorry, Big Bear was too impulsive. I hope to invite you to help resolve the misunderstanding."

The man named Daxiong obviously listened to the woman. He put down his hands and slowly walked to the woman's side.

Crow didn't want to have an antagonistic relationship with a strange Devil Fruit user, so he nodded and said, "No problem, I am also impulsive, and it's good that everyone can clear up the misunderstanding. By the way, you can just call me Crow."

The man and woman opposite also introduced themselves. The man's full name was Bartholomew Bear, as the woman said, and the woman's name was Ginny. After clearing up the misunderstanding, the two also invited Crow and the revolutionaries to rest at their residence.

In order to better understand the local situation, Crow accepted the invitation of the two. During the conversation with the two on the road, Crow also learned the reason for the initial hostility and misunderstanding.

It turns out that this slum area protected by the big bear often encounters a lot of malicious targeting, and this targeting mainly comes from the king of the Solbe Kingdom.

Just before the revolutionaries landed at the port, a piece of news spread in the Kingdom of Solbe that the King of Solbe had hired a group of pirates from overseas in an attempt to cause damage to the area protected by the big bear.

As luck would have it, the Revolutionary Party's behavior of looking for people in the slums was misunderstood by Big Bear. It was not until Ginny got the specific information of the pirates outside and heard about this on the way back that she realized that Big Bear had made a misunderstanding.

At the place where Big Bear and Ginny lived, the misunderstanding was quickly cleared up. Crow also told the two the reason why they came to the Kingdom of Solbe, hoping to find the pirates with the help of their local knowledge.

At this time, Ginny thought of something and asked, "Have those pirates been active around Barterila Island before?"

"Yes, that's right. We chased you here by boat from the waters of Batalila Island. How did you know?" The crow asked after answering.

"In order to protect the people in the slums, Big Bear and I often need to get information from those who want to target us maliciously.

I just learned this news. The king is recruiting a new group of pirates to deal with us, and they are from the waters around Batirila Island." Ginny said.

"After all, our enemies have united again." Crow's expression looked a little strange.

"Maybe." Ginny said, "But our enemies are not just pirates, but also the King of the Solbe Kingdom hiding behind. He is the king of a member country of the World Government."

"A member of the World Government? That's fine. But a king of a country would actually hire pirates to deal with his own people.

Although I don’t know why he did this, as long as he dares to oppress the people, we revolutionaries will never let him go.” Crow replied firmly.

"Revolution?" Big Bear and Ginny seemed to have heard some familiar words. They stood up and said in unison, "Are you the Self-Defense Forces?"
