Chapter two hundred and nineteen the so-called revolution
The Shampoo Islands, the gateway to the New World more than 200 years ago.
In the world of One Piece, there is a huge mangrove called the Archiman Mangrove. The so-called Shampoo Islands are formed by its bare roots on the water, which shows its hugeness.
More than 200 years ago, the Shambodia Islands were composed of 79 trees. People used this standard to number the Shambodia Islands, from 1 to 79. However, 200 years later, the archipelago has shrunk a lot, leaving only 69 mangroves. The former islands 60 to 69 disappeared because they were once the navy's headquarters.
After Mary Joa's escape, Sean and the other two quietly came here because this place was a real illegal place.
More than 200 years ago, although the Shambodian Islands were also known as illegal land, they still had a certain order, because there was a naval base here. The so-called illegal land actually refers specifically to islands 1 to 29. However, today 200 years later, it has become a veritable illegal land.
"Boss, those bubbles are so beautiful. It's amazing that someone actually builds a house on it."
Compared to Monca's silence, Yud seemed much more active, especially as he just escaped from the cage, he was curious about everything.
"It's quite magical. Those bubbles are resin produced by air expansion at the roots of the Archiman Mangrove."
Looking at the huge mangrove, Sean casually explained to Yud that as a natural wizard, Sean is still very interested in the huge tree species of mangrove. Although there are many huge tree species in the Boya world, Sean has never encountered it.
"Let's go, let's find a place to live first and get familiar with the situation."
After saying that, Sean pressed the brim of the hat, squeezed into the crowd first, and disappeared into the crowd. Monca and Yud looked at each other and followed closely. In order to avoid possible pursuit, Sean and the other two were disguised at this moment.
After wandering around at the Big Axe Tavern, Sean and the other two lived here.
There are no hotels that provide accommodation in the current Shambodian Islands, only taverns that provide accommodation.
Sitting relaxed and relaxed in the corner of the tavern, Sean took a sip of the night rhapsody recommended by the boss, and then frowned slightly. This wine was too strong and was not suitable for his taste.
Putting down the wine glass, Sean picked up the thick stack of newspapers on the table and looked over it. Mary Qiaoa was isolated from the world for too long and he needed to know more news.
When Sean was reading the newspaper, Monca was motionless, always alert to the dangers that might appear around him. Yud sipped the beer in a small sip. Even though his throat hurted, the novelty of beer still made him unable to help trying it again and again. He had never tasted this taste before.
As a pub in an illegal place, the Big Axe Tavern is naturally not a clean place. It is normal to drink and make trouble. However, no one dares to cause trouble for Sean and the other, because the person who dares to cause trouble has fallen to the ground, and Monca just punched before.
“Things seem to be more interesting than I thought.”
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Sean's mouth outlined a beautiful curve.
Although the information in the newspaper is not systematic and has great limitations, combined with some of the situations Uranus told him, Sean still understands some of the current situation in this world.
War is the overture, chaos is the movement, all countries stand together, and the battle for hegemony is the current world of One Piece.
Although the forces headed by the Revolutionary Army successfully overthrew the world government and realized the revolution they mentioned more than 200 years ago, this kind of revolution was incomplete.
The revolutionary army was wrong from the beginning. The reason why they were able to gather powerful forces in a short period of time was actually the hatred of these people for the world government, the Tianlong people, and even the nobles. Their revolutionary goals seemed clear, but in fact they were very vague and did not have a complete charter.
When the world government was overthrown and the Tianlong people were trampled by them, the people of the Revolutionary Army dispersed and they lost the goal of uniting.
Especially in the late period of the war more than 200 years ago, a large number of kingdoms were in trouble, leaving the world government and joining the revolutionary army, which laid the disaster for the collapse of the revolutionary army.
It is true that the joining of these kingdom forces has indeed greatly enhanced the power of the revolutionary army and even brought a fatal blow to the world government. However, from the beginning, these kingdoms did not join the revolutionary army because they agreed with the concept of the revolutionary army. Everything was for the benefit. The revolutionary army at that time allowed them to see the weakness of the world government and let them see the hope of turning over and making a decision.
In fact, there were serious differences within the revolutionary army for these kingdoms that joined the revolutionary army under the leadership of the nobles, because a considerable number of people joined the revolutionary army because of hatred for the aristocrats, but this difference was suppressed by the imminent war at that time.
At that time, although the Revolutionary Army improved in the fight against the world government and even had advantages in some places, it was still in a disadvantageous position overall. Without the infusion of new forces, it was almost impossible for them to overthrow the world government, so they had no choice but to need more power.
Finally, after the merger of three powerful forces, the real revolutionary forces led by the Revolutionary Army, the fake revolutionary forces led by the nobles, and the pirate forces responding to the call of One Piece Luffy, the world government was finally overthrown, allowing the oppressed people for 800 years to finally get "freedom".
But what is ridiculous is that in this war under the banner of justice, the inherent chaos and evil pirate forces are the main force that cannot be ignored.
After the war, the real revolutionary forces headed by the Revolutionary Army suffered heavy losses, and even the revolutionary army leader Monchi D. Dorag died at the hands of Im, which made the future of the Revolutionary Army, which should have been bright after the war, become uncertain.
The war was victorious and the goal was achieved. With Dorag's death, different voices within the Revolutionary Army gradually increased. Some of them insisted on adhering to their past ideas, uniting multiple forces, establishing a huge country of equality and freedom, allowing all people to live a happy life. Some of them quietly changed their positions and frequently contacted kingdom forces led by the nobles, wanting to seek more benefits for themselves, or they want to betray their own class and become one of the nobles they hated in the past. Some of them saw the undercurrents and the nature of quiet transformation within the Revolutionary Army, and chose to retreat bravely and leave the Revolutionary Army. Such a choice seemed helpless, but no matter what, their initial idea had been achieved.
The revolutionary army fell apart, and the fake revolutionary army forces led by the nobles took advantage of the situation to swallow the results of the revolution and carried out a vague cleanup of some stubborn elements in the revolutionary army. Since then, the revolutionary war, which lasted for more than 20 years, brought an imperfect end to the revolutionary war, which millions of people shed blood and sacrificed, came to an imperfect end. The kingdom forces became the greatest gainer of interests. While gaining a lot of wealth, they also obtained many technologies left by the world government, and since then they embarked on a rapid development path.
As for the pirates who responded to the call of One Piece Luffy, they scattered after the war ended.
Although this force is powerful, they are all gathered from pirate maps of all sizes. Compared with the other two forces, distraction is their biggest shortcoming. Of course, there is another point that cannot be ignored, that is, Luffy, as One Piece, did not try to control them, so although this pirate's power is powerful in this war, it seems that he has gained a lot of wealth, but in fact he does not get much.
In fact, if Luffy could have shocked the pirates with his reputation as One Piece and integrated them, then perhaps the current world pattern would have changed. Unfortunately, he did not do this, because he was not that kind of person in his bones.
