One Piece: I'm Destined to Be the Son-in-Law King!

Chapter 214 - Since Ancient Times, Revolutions Involve Bloodshed and Sacrifice

The plan was simple, yet daring: Steal from the Celestial Dragons, use the money to buy weapons, and then start a revolution.

It sounded like madness.

But the Revolutionary Army was already the World Government's biggest enemy, trapped in an endless fight. What did it matter if they went a little crazy? What if they even killed a Celestial Dragon?

Would they be sentenced to 108 executions?

The World Government's secret agents were constantly trying to kill the Revolutionary Army's leaders, no matter what they did. The Revolutionary Army didn't scare people like a Four Emperor. At least the World Government wouldn't dare to bother the Four Emperors too much, afraid of what they might do in return.

In the small room, Roya, acting like he wasn't the one who would face the consequences, made a few sarcastic comments while watching Dragon's face change. Then he casually crossed his legs.

He hoped the Revolutionary Army would live up to its name as the World Government's greatest threat, instead of just making a lot of noise and not getting anything done.

Like a clown.

After a long, heavy silence, Dragon finally spoke.

"I will send people to find the Country of Music!"

"Then I'll wait for your good news." Roya shrugged, as if it were no big deal.

"Anything else?"

"..."

Too many questions swirled in Dragon's mind; he didn't know where to start.

He couldn't understand Roya at all.

He'd heard stories about Roya, knew he was a wild and crazy Marine, and that he had even fought Admiral Akainu for some unknown reason.

Seeing is believing.

Roya's "craziness" was even bigger than he imagined.

"Black Hair, do you hate the Celestial Dragons?"

"Hate? Not really." Roya looked at Dragon strangely.

Right now, he didn't have any real problems with the Celestial Dragons; he'd barely even met them. "Hate" was too strong a word. Disgust was more like it, and that mostly came from old memories and the Celestial Dragons' awful behavior.

Dragon hesitated, trying to figure out Roya's feelings about the Celestial Dragons. If he doesn't hate them, why does he act like he wants to kill them all?

Roya felt he had to make his position clear. If he ever starts a rebellion, he might even become allies with the Revolutionary Army.

The Revolutionary Army's enemy wasn't the Marines, and the Marines' enemy wasn't the Revolutionary Army.

"Dragon, why did you leave the Marines?"

"I found no justice in the Marines!" Dragon answered honestly.

The Marines were the World Government's military force. They had some freedom, but everyone, even the top officers, had to follow the World Government's orders, even horrible ones like the Buster Call.

Also, the Marines knew about the World Government's crimes, especially those of the Celestial Dragons, but they ignored them or even helped cover them up.

He couldn't stand being part of it, so he left the Marines and started the Revolutionary Army to overthrow the greatest evil.

"You're right, there is no justice in the Marines." Roya agreed. "Unlike you, my goal is to free the Marines from the World Government's control and turn them into a truly good force."

"That's impossible!" Dragon blurted out.

The Marines and the World Government needed each other to survive. Everyone from the leaders to the lowest ranks needed the World Government's support.

It wasn't just about support; the Marines and the World Government were deeply connected. Breaking away from the World Government would weaken their own power, especially for those with families.

"It is indeed impossible." Roya knew this very well.

Most officers, for example, have family who work for the World Government. How could you expect them to betray it?

"So, I don't expect everyone to follow me. A few of the high-ranking officers will be enough." A cold glint appeared in Roya's eyes. "Dragon, since ancient times, revolutions have involved bloodshed and sacrifice. We should simply get rid of anyone who gets in our way!"

In his mind, the Marine leaders fell into three groups: those he could win over, those who were neutral, and those who needed to be eliminated!

You can't accomplish great things with kindness and weakness!

"Since ancient times, revolutions have involved bloodshed and sacrifice..." Dragon muttered.

This sentence hit him hard.

The Revolutionary Army had faced unbelievable hardships to get where it was, and countless soldiers had given their lives.

That's why they desperately needed victory!

Roya narrowed his eyes. "Dragon, the Goa Kingdom's royal family is nearby. Are you really not planning to pull off a big heist?"

"I will consider it!" Dragon took a deep breath.

The Celestial Tribute was a huge amount of money. If the Revolutionary Army could get it, they could buy weapons or use it for supplies, which would really help them out.

But there were also problems.

The World Government would definitely try even harder to capture and destroy the Revolutionary Army.

There was also the issue of where the weapons would come from.

Not all countries could make weapons on a large scale. In fact, most couldn't. Countries that could make their own weapons were usually very strong.

That's why the Beasts Pirates' weapons were so valuable, and even many member countries were secretly buying them through others.

Buying weapons from Gild Tesoro or Kaido would go against the Revolutionary Army's beliefs.

There were still too many problems to solve.

The problem was that time was running out.

If they missed this World Conference, they would have to wait another four years. Usually, the World Government wouldn't put so many forces in Mary Geoise.

Now was the best time to act!

And he was tempted by Roya's suggestion.

Maybe he should be radical for once!

Ginny's horrible experience was a pain in all their hearts, and they must never let something like that happen again!

Dragon returned to the warship and solemnly ordered, "Betty, contact all the Army Commanders immediately. I have important matters to discuss with you!"

"Understood!" Betty could tell that Dragon was upset. It was the first time she had seen him so unsure.

Something big might be about to happen!

Frost Wolf Mini.

On the deck, Yamato, watching the Revolutionary Army warship leave, asked curiously, "Roya, is that man very strong?"

"Of course, he's the world's number one criminal right now, a bigger threat to the World Government than your father." Roya clicked his tongue. "But in terms of strength, he's probably not as good as your father. Your father is definitely the strongest in this era."

"Oh!" Yamato pouted.

Her father being so strong didn't make her happy at all.

Roya ruffled the little girl's hair.

"Let's go back to the restaurant we were at earlier."

"Huh? Are we going back?"

"Yeah, I plan to stay for a few days and wait for news."

The Revolutionary Army had always worked to rescue the oppressed and should know about the situations in different countries. The destruction of the Country of Music wasn't a small thing; the Revolutionary Army probably had information about it.

He could wait two days before leaving.
