Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 1207

1207 Great Cause

In the Ligu Ligu Kingdom, in the jungle near a large plantation, there is a simple camp.

In the camp, a man in a dark green cloak looked at the people in front of him and asked, “Do they still not believe it?”

“Yes, Leader. In any case, they don’t believe it. Even if the nobles are caught in front of them, they still don’t believe it and think we are thugs.”

A one-eyed man sighed and said, “Leader, when did our Revolutionary Army become a mob…”

Dorag fell silent.

They had discovered the problem of this country a long time ago. This time, he came over to solve this matter, but just like before, no matter how the Revolutionary Army persuaded the civilians, even if they threw a noble over, they would think that it was forced by the Revolutionary Army and it was still ineffective.

This kind of fraud caused by nobles against civilians for a long time is not something that can be solved in a short time.

“Hey, Dorag, you keep saying that you want to overthrow this country, but you haven’t succeeded yet!”

A voice came from the tent of the camp, and a man dressed as a noble came out with an impatient face: “Can you do it or not? The people are suffering. Those people are raising pirates to harvest the wealth of the people. Every night, they suffer more. You are the commander of the Revolutionary Army, can’t you just kill them? Let me sit on the throne, I promise I will not let the people suffer like this.”

Dorag looked back at him. Early on, it was this noble who told them about the situation of the country and they knew about the problem here. Similarly, they chose this noble as the new king after the overthrow.

“No way…”

Dorag shook his head and said, “Our Revolutionary Army is dedicated to the internal changes of the country. If no one agrees with you, it will be useless even if we forcibly overthrow them. Anyway… let’s continue to deal with the pirates. No matter what, we have to ensure the lives of the people first.”

“Che…”

The nobleman spat and stopped talking.

The one-eyed man said angrily, “You are clearly relying on us, but your attitude is so bad. Be more respectful to the leader!”

“No matter how bad my attitude is, I will not bully the people like this. You are choosing a king. Other than me, no one else will care about you!” The noble said directly.

Indeed, because he is just a minor noble with no territory and no ability to form a pirate group.

This is the custom of this country. The nobles form their own pirate group and harvest the wealth of the people regularly, but they can’t let the people find out. Otherwise, who will do the plantation? They don’t know how to do it. If they don’t give high benefits, the people won’t be so enthusiastic. But if they give too many benefits, the nobles can’t make money, so they can only rob them first.

This noble was very clear about this point. As long as one has some ability, who would be willing to come into contact with such a revolutionary army? After all, even if the revolutionary army overthrew this country and let him take the throne, he would only be able to collect a small amount of tax for a long time. But that is a king after all, which is better than now.

Hearing the noble’s words, the one-eyed man pursed his lips and just stared at him and stopped talking.

Indeed, only he would do that. No matter what this guy’s attitude is, at least he told the Revolutionary Army about the situation here. He has a heart for the people…

“Leader, leader!”

Just as Dorag was thinking of an idea, a Revolutionary Army suddenly came in from the jungle and pointed to the rear, panting. “Marine, there is Marine!”

“Marines?”

Dorag was stunned. “Why is there a Marine? This is a non-joining country. Marines will not appear here.”

The African Union did not pay the World Government, the Marines certainly did not care, why would there be Marines in…

“I don’t know, but that group of Marines also joined the opposing pirates!” The Revolutionary Army said quickly.

Dorag frowned and his body turned into a ball of wind, disappearing from the spot and directly reaching the sky.

In his field of vision, a large number of ‘whites’ suddenly appeared in the vicinity and they rushed towards those villages and towns at an extremely fast speed. In the large plantation below, a group of pirates was surrounded by Marines like chickens and then annihilated.

“So fast?”

Dorag felt that something was wrong. The speed of these Marines was not ordinary. In addition to their clothes, there was an inexplicable white mist…

Then he saw a bearded man in a plantation and looked shocked. “Kaz?”

This person is an existence that gives the Revolutionary Army a headache.

Why is he here?

“Yes?”

As if sensing something, Kaz looked up into the sky but found nothing. Then he turned his attention to the surviving civilians.

“Marine? Anyway, thank you, Marine!”

Among the civilians, one of them who seemed to be the leader stood up and bowed to them.

“Do you know that these pirates are raised by the nobles here? The purpose is to harvest your wealth.” Donald said.

He was a straightforward person. It was better to explain this situation first.

The leader looked grateful just now, but his face immediately changed when he heard this. “Another one! Hey, even if you save us, you can’t slander the nobles! They are good people who will comfort us and give us food after pirates rob us. They are good people, not what you say. You are the same as the Revolutionary Army, why do you always slander others!”

“You…”

Donald wanted to say something, but he saw Cass reach out and shake his head. “There’s no need to persuade him.”

“Yes, there’s no need to say it.”

Wilbur also nodded and said, “The second page of the Justice Quotations, verse six, Mr. Kuro said: Time is the same as practice, it can test the truth. We just have to do it. Our great cause is very difficult, and it’s okay to be criticized for it. If we don’t do it because we are influenced by the majority, then this cause can’t be called great.”

Kaz nodded. “That’s right. What we want is not to say it, but to do it directly. No matter what these people say, we just have to go to the Royal City and we will know everything. We will know immediately whether it is true or false. If it is false, we will invite them according to the original plan. If it is true…”

There was no need to say more. If it was true, then he would kill all the nobles here.

“As expected of you, Cass!”

Wilbur said passionately: “Quote of Justice, page two, verse eleven, Mr. Kuro said: I believe you?”

“This sentence fully demonstrates Mr. Kuro’s disdain and suspicion of secular things, because it’s wrong to jump to conclusions without observation, and after observation, as long as we do what we think is right, our great career will not be affected by anyone, even if we are questioned by everyone, we must continue our career!”

Donald was speechless.

‘Is that right?’

However, he did not seem to have heard this from the Admiral before. It might be a mistake.

“Let’s go directly to the Royal City and let the Marines continue to encircle other places.”

Kaz turned around and left with the rest, ignoring the stunned people.

Wilbur threw down a copy of Just Faith and said to those people, “Read this book when you have time. It is good for you. You have to have the ability to judge and not just look at the surface.”

“Vice-Admiral…”

Donald came up and said worriedly, “If it’s true, will it affect the civilians’ view of us if we kill them directly?”

“It’s not important…”

Kaz looked up. His gaze was distant, as if it was transmitted through the sky to a certain golden pika.

“The people hate us and nothing will happen to us. The passage of time will make everything disappear. What we have to do is to maintain justice. If carrying some infamy can achieve justice, then let’s scold more. Donald, our cause of justice can’t be that simple. Otherwise, Mr. Kuro wouldn’t have not taken action until now.”

The group of people gradually walked away, and no one read the book.

The rescued civilians returned to their homes to settle their families, and with a gust of wind, the book disappeared.

… .

Dorag looked at Kuro in front of him with a complicated expression.

He wanted to know the answer. He wanted to know why the Marines could slaughter all the nobles in the Royal City after learning the truth. Then, a few days later, Dressrosa came and declared to the public that he had conquered the country.

The Marines under your command and that Dressrosa are your territory…

‘What exactly do you want to do?’

‘And what is your justice?’

Dorag very much wants to know the answer!
