Chapter 354: Give up the illusion of being a pirate and build a flag-like deep-sea empire

"Mention of 'pirates'......"

David Jones's thick voice echoed through the Great Hall without even a microphone amplification, and all attendees, whether present or not, were listening attentively.

Arrita grabbed her microphone so that the sound of her breathing would not interfere with the captain's voice.

"When you think of pirates, you always think of gangs that rob houses and houses like bandits, but the territory they occupy is different."

"However, since the era of pirates started by Roger, the nature of pirates has long changed."

"The world government, like a frightened bird, regards all those who go to sea without legal proof and legal means as pirates."

"Some people are even persecuted and exiled at sea just because of their special status, and they are also regarded as pirates."

"In order to avoid the pursuit and hunt of the navy, of course, the pirates have to gather together. And once the pirates are full-fledged, they will become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh that they can't ignore. ”

"Like the 'Old and New Seven Martial Seas' and 'Old and New Four Emperors', these are all the same truths. Rather than calling them pirates, they are large and small separatist forces. ”

"Today, we are the most powerful force on this sea."

David Jones' icy blue eyes looked over everyone's faces.

"To deceive ourselves into calling ourselves 'pirates', thinking that the world government and navy will let us go, this kind of luck and fantasy psychology should be lost."

"In the eyes of the world government and navy, we are more dangerous than the 'red-haired' Shanks or the revolutionary army."

"They can't sit idly by and watch us continue to exist, and we can't let them continue to step on our heads, control the great shipping lanes and the four seas, and gradually strangle us."

"That's the inevitable when we expand to the point where we can't afford to ignore."

"We will have a big war with the world government and the navy, just as we will have a big war with Charlotte Lingling and Kaido in the past."

"This is a huge war from which no one can escape or survive. The name of the pirate can no longer describe our power, and the name of the pirate cannot give us much more influence. ”

"Therefore, the establishment of the Deep Sea Empire is necessary."

After a few breaths of silence in the spacious Great Hall, one of the many screens projected on the white wall was heard from Crocodall's voice.

"I agree with Your Majesty's thoughts." He still had a cigar in his mouth and let out a hoarse voice, "It's not a secret, I want to be a One Piece like Roger." ”

"However, a lot of things have happened since the battle, and my original goal has changed."

"I no longer want to be a king with an empty title, but a king with real power."

"I believe that under His Majesty's Deep Sea Empire, it is possible for me to achieve this goal. At present, our worst enemy is no longer the 'red hair', but the world government. ”

"If you want to stand up to the world government and build our empire, you need to put up the flag."

"Otherwise, we will be like the revolutionary army, which seems to have overthrown many kingdoms, but failed to actually threaten the world government, and finally disappointed the forces that would have defected to our side and turned to neutrality."

"We should be the kings of the call."

Klockdahl never hid his ambitions.

And David Jones never thought it was wrong, Klockdahl was his sharpest spear, and if he couldn't hold it, then it was his incompetence.

As if he had said it, as soon as Klockdahl's voice fell, Jinping took over the topic.

"Fish-people and merfolk have been discriminated against for hundreds of years."

"It's not like we haven't sought solutions, Otohime's affinity, Fisher Tiger's liberals, Aaron and Hoddy Jones' extremists, ......"

"But no matter which faction it is, it will eventually be stillborn. The Draco people and the world government have blocked almost all our roads, but they have used 'hope and future' to hang us like fishing. ”

"And this kind of discrimination and oppression generally exists among the races of the Terrans, the Merfolk, the Fishmen, the Giants, the Lilliputs, the Footchiefs, the Hands Chiefs, the Snakeheads, the Furs, the Three-Eyed, the Lunalia and so on......"

"If racial equality is achieved, we have to overthrow the rule of the Draconians and the World Government and create a new world, I think, I would gladly do it."

"I also support Your Majesty in establishing the Deep Sea Empire, there is no name of a country, only the name of 'pirates', how can we unite those races and make them trust us?"

After the statements of the two giants, Klockdahl and Jinping, the third person to speak was beyond everyone's expectations.

"I'll tell you what I think."

Kuzan spoke coldly with a frosty aura.

"The Kingdom of Dressrosa is a member of the World Government and deserves protection according to the World Government Convention."

"Wano Country is a non-member country of the world government, and according to the Convention, this is a land of lawlessness and there is no need for protection."

"Their fates, however, are similar, they are both under the tyranny of Doflamingo and Kaido, the former for ten years and the latter for twenty."

"The boundaries between member and non-member countries can be broken so easily."

"If you pay a sufficient amount of heavenly gold, the world government and navy may not protect you, but if you don't pay, you will definitely be surrounded and intercepted by the world government and navy, and sanctioned by many parties."

"The original convention between the world government and the member states has long been a null and void."

"It should be said that the Tianlong people themselves are the first to trample on the covenant."

"The Dragon Palace Kingdom was originally a member country, but have their people been sheltered?"

"No, they became slaves to the Draconians."

"Paying the heavenly gold and abiding by the convention is more conducive to the circulation of fish people and mermaids as 'commodity goods' in the Chambord Islands and other places."

"If this is still the case with member countries, what about non-member countries, there are not a few countries that have been slaughtered and wiped out, and how many former member countries have been forced to become non-member countries?"

"When the most basic fairness and justice cannot be guaranteed, I will not blame those who break the rules, as long as it allows them to live."

"What the true justice is, I haven't found it yet, but it will never be like the Draconians and the World Government."

"I vote yes too."

"Yes." Arrita raised her hand at the podium.

Ace also raised his hand in the audience: "Yes." ”

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Yes."

More and more people said that the seven ominous commanders, five kings, a general, and a female prime minister all voted in favor of each other for their own reasons.

No matter what you think in your heart, things have already begun, and the arrows have been shot, do you want to surrender directly to the Draconians and the World Government and beg them to spare their lives?

Then you shouldn't have been a pirate in the first place, don't resist, and let the knife and axe cut at you. Why do you have to wait until you have a weapon to resist before kneeling down and surrendering?

The Deep Sea Empire must be built, because all the currents are rushing here, and it is impossible to be calm.

After all the votes were cast, all eyes were once again focused on the man who had brought them to the heights they had not been, the man who had put them at the center of the maelstrom and had survived so far.

David Jones took a puff of his pipe before knocking on the board at the end: "Prepare for the founding ceremony next month, on the island of the Horror Ghost." ”

"It's time for the Draconians and the World Government to feel the fear of being hunted."
