Chapter 565 discusses the real contradiction of the pirates and the pardon order for the pirates

- Leo, the commander-in-chief of the Revolutionary Army.

As for the matter of pirates, in fact, I have mentioned before, in fact, it is not the contradiction between the pirates and the people, nor the contradiction between the pirates and the merchants, but the contradiction between the pirates, and even the people and the local tyrants and landlords.

The people can't live, from the source, it comes from the tyranny of the Tianlong people, but if the factor of the Tianlong people is excluded, now that the Tianlong people have lost their control and force over the world, has everyone's life really changed for the better?

You don't need to answer me, you just need to look at yourself, look around you, and you can understand one thing, although the Tianlong people have collapsed, everyone's taxes, everyone's life still hasn't changed.

Why?

This is of course because someone has taken the place of the Draconian, and your taxes will not stop, since everyone can afford the taxes of the Draconians before this, and they have no ability to resist these local tyrants and gentry, then it is natural that they will take this money into their own pockets after there are no Draconians on their heads.

And the situation in the world and the number of pirates will not change in any way, in the last six months, everyone seems to be relieved, but they have not seen this, this is the dereliction of duty and major negligence of the revolutionary army.

But it is worth pointing out that in the face of evil, it will not work to punish only the evil head.

When everyone faces evil, they think that this evil leader is sinful, but the countless kings, nobles, gentry, and tyrants under his command? are all coerced innocent people, but it is clear that the world? In this evil system created by the Draconians, they are all part of this evil system.

They didn't become good people after the Draconians, the source of evil, disappeared, did they? This is a testament to their identity as the cogs and accomplices of evil.

If they don't get rid of them, it's not just the retired pirates? Most of the world's people still live in the depths of oppression? These people took the place of the Draconians? Became the new oppressor.

So, looking at the essence through the phenomenon? What is the reason for this?

On property contradictions.

Is there a limit to the number of wealthy people that can be accommodated in a region, and who control the resources and property of the region? It also monopolized the productive forces, the means of production, and the results of production in this region.

After they became gentry and tyrants? It was only natural that land annexation began.

But their land annexation will inevitably squeeze the living space and means of production of ordinary people, whether they are intentional or unintentional? But there is no room for relaxation in this kind of thing, and their existence is to squeeze the survival space of ordinary people.

Isn't it just going to make it difficult for ordinary people to survive? After all, land is somehow limited? But to do everything else to support yourself? But when this squeeze is combined with the heavy taxes of the Draconians? It became a set of combination punches, and the ordinary people were directly beaten to death.

They had no power to fight back, except to starve to death, so they could only sail to the sea in search of a glimmer of life.

And those who don't have any skills, in addition to running merchant ships after going to sea, can only join pirates.

This didn't catch my attention at the beginning? We thought that after killing the Draconians, we would be able to bring peace and purity to the world, but as you have seen, the world has not changed for the better.

It took us a long time to gather information before we discovered these problems, which shows that our control over the grassroots is completely out of control, and we hope that the heads of revolutionary army branches around the world will take this as a warning and be vigilant about this matter.

At the same time, it also shows that our indulgence of the evil gears did not make them change their ways, but made them even worse, because they replaced the Draconians, and after receiving more money, they began to expand their power, so far, they have become a big lesion, about to become the first problem of the revolutionary army, but there is nowhere to go on the sea, and the pirates who have no future have become a secondary problem.

Here, in the name of the Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary Army, I would like to extend a sincere invitation to pirates all over the world to change their ways.

For those young pirates who have no bounties from the Revolutionary Army and the past Navy, I hope that you will go to the nearest base or branch of the Revolutionary Army and expose your past, and we will not be guilty of your past sins.

If you have ever killed someone and feel guilty, then please complete more than one year of labor reform in the local area, help maintain local law and order and land reclamation, and we will forgive you for your past sins on behalf of the people.

As for those pirates who have bounties, I hope that you can redeem your bounties with the money you have plundered in the past, and you, as pirates, must undergo three to five years of labor reform according to your past crimes, and if it is very serious, you need to go through labor reform for more than five years and less than ten years.

This is a punishment for your past brutality.

But!

If you refuse the special pardon of the Revolutionary Army now, then in a year's time, the Revolutionary Army will shell any ship on the sea with the flag of pirates, and at that time, we will have no mercy on any of our men and will chase you to the ends of the earth, and we will never spare you!

As compensation, we will compensate for those with animal Devil Fruit abilities from 100 million Bailey to 200 million Bailey (according to the strength of the fruit), the ancient Devil Fruit of the animal species will be compensated at a price of 200 million to 500 million, and the Devil Fruit of the animal phantom beast species will be compensated at a price of 500 million to 800 million Bailey.

For those with superhuman Devil Fruit abilities, we will compensate them at a price of 300 million to 1 billion.

For natural Devil Fruits, depending on the ability, we will compensate for it at the price of one billion to one hundred thousand Baileys.

If you want to join the Revolutionary Army after that, you can even apply, and for the application channels within the Revolutionary Army, as long as you have contribution points and cheaper prices, you can apply for various Devil Fruits including the Natural System within the Revolutionary Army.

Thank you for your cooperation and yearning for the light, we will fight against the underworld forces to the end here, and sincerely invite you to join and surrender!
