Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 1023

Chapter 1023: We Can Also Collect Pirates

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the palace of Dressrosa, Wang Long and Yagyu Shihu were voluntarily bound by chains and brought to the main hall. David had changed his clothes and was sitting on the throne, looking at the two of them curiously.

“You mean you want to find the answer here?”

He was also holding a copy of “Justice Faith” in his hand. This book was found on Wang Long’s body. When he saw this book, David had an idea.

On his road to conquest, the Justice Corps has helped a lot. Many enemy soldiers are attracted by the justice in it and think that this is what a person should be like. In addition, the soldiers of Dressrosa never bully civilians and their hometowns, they only find soldiers to fight, which makes the towns and villages of the enemy forces have a good impression of Dressrosa.

There is also the policy that Dressrosa made when he conquered the region. That kind of common development model that uses Dressrosa’s model in the past and retains the local characteristics and takes away its essence and messes makes many people surrender directly.

Faith, force, and power are not things that ordinary forces can resist.

Even David himself was attracted by the Justice Faith that Wilbur adapted from the Justice Quotations, which is suitable for the people of today’s world, let alone others.

“Yes, I’m looking for the answer. Previously, I felt the collective power in ‘Giant Shield’ Cass, but when I came to Dressrosa and saw this place, I found that the master of the collective power is in Dressrosa, in ‘Justice Faith’!”

Wang Long said loudly: “Dresrosa, who has the faith of justice, will definitely let me find the true path of ‘Force’, so please take me in, no, just let me live in Dressrosa!”

“I feel the same way!”

Yagyu Shihu seemed to be unwilling to admit defeat as he stuck his head out and shouted, “I also found the correct answer in ‘Big Spear’ Wilbur, so I want to come here and see what kind of lifestyle Dressrosa, who also got the correct answer, has and whether it is the same as I think, whether it is the kind of country where residents trust each other and can trust each other with their backs!”

David raised his head slightly and said proudly, “Of course, I can entrust my back to the people of Dressrosa without any scruples, and the people of Dressrosa will give their trust to me unconditionally. This is a country that can be trusted!”

With the universal acceptance of “Justice Faith”, they already know what the true justice in their hearts is, because the value conveyed in “Justice Faith” is the beauty of human beings.

No one rejects beauty.

Even nobles would not reject this beauty, but unfortunately, in the strategic guidelines conveyed by Mr. Kuro, feudal capital nobles who treat people badly are not integrated into the world. They have long been cleaned up by David!

Looking at the two impatient people, David sighed slightly, stood up and walked inside.

When he walked into the inner room, he took out a Den Den Mushi and asked, “What do you think?”

The Den Den Mushi remained on and seemed to be talking to someone.

This is a Den Den Mushi for multi-person communication, and the object of the connection…

Greenbitt is only a bridge away from Dressrosa. This island originally belonged to the Small Human Race. After King David came to power, he resolved Dressrosa’s previous conflict with the Small Human Race and let the Small Human Race join this faith in justice. Then, he opened Greenbitt and allowed Marines to station here in the fortress.

The Little Human Clan’s unique farming talent allows them to develop Grinbit and even say that they don’t need to rely on supplies and Marines can eat their fill here. This talent is naturally discovered by David. As a citizen of Dressrosa, the Little Human Clan naturally joins the ranks of the Great Conquest. In the conquered areas, there are also the figures of the Little Human Clan to help them grow crops and fruits and develop the fields.

And now the Marine base here in Greenbitt is overseen by Kaz. At this time, he is looking at Den Den Mushi in the office, thinking about the conversation he heard before, and said: “Wang Long? This man did escape from me, but I think he is not bad. Although he is a pirate, he has not done anything out of line in terms of qualifications. If possible, try to let him join Dressrosa.”

“Similarly, I also think that Yagyu Ishigao is not bad. In that battle, I was not his opponent, but he also seemed to have suffered a shock in his mind and he has not done anything out of line. He is a very strong person and can also join Dressrosa.”

In the naval base in the Kingdom of Corfu, Wilbur also said to Den Den Mushi, “Didn’t we meet Vice-Admiral Crowe before? Vice-Admiral Crowe told us about his troubles. Mr. Kuro now wants the power of Pirates. Maybe they have other uses besides joining Dressrosa.”

The Kingdom of Korff is essentially ‘Dresrosa’, but in the eyes of outsiders, they still have to look separately.

Besides, Kaz and Wilbur are Marines and don’t participate in the internal affairs of the kingdom. If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to pay attention to the impact, David would have invited Kaz and Wilbur directly to the palace to be stationed there. Unlike now, most of them rely on Den Den Mushi to contact them.

After fighting the Horned Pirates, they met each other.

Crowe is busy reviewing the undercover members of ‘Sword’. Of course, this kind of review is not for anyone other than ‘Sword’, but for Kaz and Wilbur, who are both subordinates of Mr. Kuro, they still complained a little about his situation.

After all, what Mr. Kuro wants is to turn the undercover agent into a full-time officer and directly become a captain. How can this matter be so easy to settle? So he tactfully ridiculed and said, “Mr. Kuro wants to develop the pirate’s power and is looking for pirates who are willing to cooperate with Marines outside the Shichibukai.”

These words were only used by Crowe to complain, but the three of them remembered them, especially Wilbur.

His strength is not good, but he uses his brain!

“Justice Faith” was made up by him. He figured out Mr. Kuro’s meaning and understood its meaning. He is the best at it!

“I can try…”

Hearing Wilbur’s words, David nodded and said: “If there is a strong person joining, I will not refuse.”

Mr. Kuro’s long-cherished wish, that strategic policy, is divided into seven steps. They have just achieved the first step, or the first step has not been completed, but the second step must also be carried out at the same time. Sometimes the strategic policy needs to be carried out at the same time. It cannot be done step by step.

The territory conquered by Dressrosa and the territory conquered by ‘Debon’ is what they need to unify and make people feel a sense of identity. This is the second step.

Even the third step is also being carried out at the same time, setting up a unified tax system and starting to build education and medical care in various places. However, the project is huge and it consumes too much, so it can only be done slowly.

With just these three steps, David was about to go crazy. He was short of money, supplies, teachers, and doctors. He was short of everything. Now, he wished he could rob his master of the legendary [Treasure of Heaven].

Since it’s called a ‘treasure trove’, there must be a lot of things!

And now there is the biggest problem. He is short of people.

Wang Long and Yagyu Shihu can directly enter Dressrosa, which represents this problem. They are too powerful, but there are not enough people to guard it.

Kyros has been sent out by him, and there are indeed no strong people in the kingdom now.

Totland can be called a ‘strong country’ all over the world because the children of Big Mom are not weak. They can be ministers and they can guard a place. David is short of such a strong talent.

But what Vice Admiral Crowe said before and what Wilbur said now gave him a wake-up call.

Since we can’t find any strong talents in the mainland, we should find a way to attract them!

Where is the largest talent stored in this sea? Of course it is with the pirates!

As long as these people do not do anything out of line and believe in justice, it is not impossible to use them.

They are pirates. If they operate well, they can also deal with other pirates and find suitable pirates. As long as those pirates believe in justice, they can also become a member of Dressrosa, just like the current Wang Long and Yagyu Shihu.

In that case, not only can he complete the idea that Master said, but he can also strengthen Dressrosa.

Yes, let’s do it!
