Undercover pirate, you can become stronger by killing enemies

Seeing Betty was about to lose her temper, A Jin stood in front of Zhang Lie and prepared to fight, even though he knew he was no match for her.

Just as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Zhang Lie put his hand on A Jin's shoulder and said,"Don't worry."

Then he sat cross-legged on the ground and looked at Betty seriously,"I want to discuss with you. Whether it is the revolutionary army itself or this world, everything can be"

"It seems that you are very confident."Betty also learned from Zhang Lie to sit cross-legged, holding a flag beside him,"Whether it is talking about the Revolutionary Army or the world, they are bullying you, let's talk about pirates."

Betty continued:"In my opinion, most of the pirates on the sea now are wearing the name of pirates, but in fact they are a group of villains who burn, kill and rob, and have not inherited the spirit of pirates at all."

"What is the spirit of pirates?"Zhang Lie asked.

Betty blurted out:"Freedom, perseverance, courage, hope, dream"

"They are adventurers." Zhang Lie immediately retorted,"The nature of a group is what the majority of its people show. Pirates have never been about freedom and unyielding courage. They are just despicable villains who burn, kill, and rob. Those few are just pirates in disguise."

Before Betty could speak, Zhang Lie began to explain in simpler words:

"The development of the world lies in productivity and the value created by labor. Productivity has three elements: means of labor, objects of labor, and laborers.

Means of labor refer to tools, land, buildings, etc.; objects of labor mainly refer to material materials; laborers refer to all individuals with labor capacity.

Laborers process objects of labor through means of labor to produce things needed for survival, which support the entire human society.

What role do pirates play in this?"

Although Betty is also well-informed, she was initially exposed to this concept and thought about it for a long time before she could figure out the relationship between them. She didn't know what to say for a while, so she refuted from another aspect:

"But people cannot live without hope and dreams, and freedom is a right that everyone should have, otherwise mankind will stagnate forever, and everyone will become zombies!"

Zhang Lie said disdainfully:"What is freedom? Is it freedom to do whatever you want? Freedom is always limited, and its most basic principle is that it cannot cause harm to others.

Besides, what qualifications do pirates have to represent hope and dreams? Hope belongs to everyone, and dreams are even more different. What do they, the pirates, rely on to represent, by plundering the fruits of others' labor? Or by destroying productivity?"

Betty was speechless. Although all this was different from what she had always known, she didn't know how to refute it. In the end, she could only say:

"Since you look down on pirates so much, why do you want to be one?"

"Because this identity is very convenient, I can do many things that other identities cannot do." Seeing that the time was almost right, Zhang Lie took the initiative to guide the topic,"How about we talk about other things, such as the Revolutionary Army?"

Betty now paid great attention to the person in front of her, and this request was exactly what she wanted:"Okay, what do you think of our Revolutionary Army?"

"That depends on your guiding ideology and ultimate goal."Tell me about it first," Zhang Lie asked."

Betty sat upright and began to introduce:"Our guiding ideology is freedom and equality. We unite the oppressed civilians, resist and overthrow the tyrannical nobles, and have the nobles who value the civilians as kings.

As for the ultimate goal, it is to overthrow the cruel rule of the Celestial Dragons and rebuild an equal, free, and hopeful world."

After listening to this, Zhang Lie pointed out the problem on the spot:"The Celestial Dragons should be defeated, but they should not be the ultimate goal. Those garbage are one of the reasons for the world's misfortune, but not the root cause. Your guiding ideology and ultimate goal are wrong, and you will never succeed."

"How is it possible!"Betty thought Zhang Lie was talking nonsense."Since our establishment, our team has continued to grow, and many countries have joined us. We have achieved great success, which is enough to prove that we are right!"

"This is just a cycle, and the nobles are not reliable." Zhang Lie said lightly:"When any country is established, its king will not be bad. Isn't it the same now?"

"This is just your own opinion... What do you think should be done?"Betty actually understood it, but she just didn't want to admit it. After all, it was too much of a shock to her worldview.

Zhang Lie also saw it, but didn't continue talking. That was enough:"Let Long talk to me about the rest. You should be able to find my location."

"Phew~ I must convey the message." Betty exhaled lightly, and then thought about the purpose of her visit,"How much do you know about this country? I heard that the people live in a very difficult situation?"

Zhang Lie introduced the situation of the Iron Country and concluded,"Anyway, the pirates have been destroyed by me, and the king seems to be okay now. It should be better later."

"We got the news that this country needs us. If that's the case, let's leave first."

The enemy was defeated and the dust settled. Zhang Lie took A Jin back to the palace and met the king who had reorganized his team.

"Welcome back, two heroes! Haha, I've asked the chef to prepare a sumptuous meal to celebrate your success!"

Zhang Lie was a little angry when he saw the king, and immediately retorted,"I was wondering why there was no one to support us during the battle. It turns out that he called back his old subordinates to cook! If we lose, are we going to face the enemy now?"

"Well, ahahaha..." The king laughed awkwardly,"I just believe in your strength. With the help of Guiqie, that mad bull will definitely not be its opponent, ahaha."

Zhang Lie did not dwell on it too much to avoid getting angry. After a big meal, Zhang Lie immediately submitted his resignation:"We still have a long way to go. I wonder what happened to the ship and supplies?"

"Don't worry, I had it prepared before you two came back, and now it's all ready. The flag is also painted as required, but I feel a little bit..."

Zhang Lie waved his hand and refused on the spot:"Don't move the flag, I prepared it carefully. Although you are a pirate, you have to keep a low profile."

"Keep a low profile…" The king’s face suddenly became a little strange when he heard this,"Okay, keep a low profile!"

Zhang Lie didn’t pay attention to the king’s expression, and followed the people to another port. Sure enough, there was a pirate ship floating on the sea.

This ship was bigger and better than their previous one, but much smaller than the ones brought by Sari before. However, there was no way, neither of them was a navigator, and this size was almost their limit.

Ajin went on board to check it out, and after coming out, he nodded to Zhang Lie and handed over a recording pointer.

Zhang Lie took the pointer, which had already stored the magnetism, and immediately turned around and clasped his fists to everyone:"Okay, thank you King for seeing us off, we will leave first."
