Chapter 369: We... Never Thought

Saint Saint Saiwen actually understood that even waiting until seven months later would not constitute the perfect moment for a decisive battle to overthrow the World Government.

Dragon's advocacy for continuing to lie low and develop for a while was undoubtedly safe and correct.

But Saint Saint Saiwen considered himself fully prepared; he had even considered that beyond Black Turn Domination, Imu held even more power in hand.

But how to put it.

Previously, the Shallow Sea Contract had distance restrictions; as long as Saint Saint Saiwen stayed in Inazuma without going out, Imu had no way to possess him.

But after signing the Abyss Contract, Imu could possess Saint Saint Saiwen anytime, anywhere; one couldn't possibly be on guard against it every single moment, could one?

Humans are not forged from iron and stone; if one keeps one's nerves constantly taut in vigilance, one will eventually be worn down.

Furthermore, after absorbing the demonic power of the Abyss Contract, the Satan Form will evolve to a higher level, at which time it will also be able to mutually Black Turn Dominate with Imu.

Moreover, Saint Saint Saiwen still had a trump card up his sleeve.

For instance: the Universal Seal Scroll, the Toki Toki no Mi ability, and so on.

Precisely for this reason, even though he knew the timing was not yet ripe, Saint Saint Saiwen was unwilling to delay any further; compared to passive defense, he preferred to take the initiative.

"Rest assured." Saint Saint Saiwen patted Dragon's shoulder: "I have a hundred percent certainty of a guaranteed victory."

If the preparations were this thorough in the early stages, but the result was failure, what then?

If it fails, then it fails.

Failure has its own way of fighting; it would simply be to unleash a total battlefield, step by step eliminating the Five Elders and the God's Knights, and thereby devouring the demonic power.

But once successful, Saint Saint Saiwen would not only realize his dream ahead of schedule, but also gain over ten years of cultivation time.

Ten-plus years later, what the hell is Imu?

Hearing Saint Saint Saiwen's assurance, Dragon breathed a sigh of relief.

Dragon's main concern was that Saint Saint Saiwen could no longer tolerate the World Government's atrocities, could not bear to see the suffering of the world, and in a moment of impulse would take irrational action.

Since Saint Saint Saiwen had a sure-fire guarantee of victory, then what was there to hesitate about? Just do it directly.

"The Revolutionary Army will go all out."

"Even if the Revolutionary Army fights until the last man, we will overthrow the World Government and liberate the entire world."

Having witnessed the atrocities of the Celestial Dragons at God Valley, Dragon saw through the corruption and darkness of the World Government, which is why he formed the Revolutionary Army and made the resolve to die at any time.

Even if the road ahead holds nine deaths and no life, so what?

As long as he could overthrow the tyranny of the Celestial Dragons and shatter this corrupt old order, he would have no regrets.

"It's not that serious." Saint Saint Saiwen's expression was calm.

"Overthrowing the World Government is not difficult; the hard part is how to stabilize the Four Seas afterwards. I am counting on all of you to continue to shine and contribute at that time."

The Revolutionary Army leadership had no shortage of talent.

Such as the Queen of Kamabakka Kingdom, known as the "Miracle Person, the Strongest Okama King in History," Emporio Ivankov.

With Ivankov restraining the citizens, it would be better than having these Okamas running around causing havoc.

The Queen of the Okama Kingdom must be her.

Moreover, after the revolution succeeds, the Revolutionary Army soldiers can be fully reorganized into the army of the new regime, or even the Marines.

The current Marines, after all, have conflicts with Saint Saint Saiwen.

In the face of the united front to overthrow the World Government, part of the Marines led by Garp might side with Saint Saint Saiwen, but after the World Government is overthrown, this part of the Marines will most likely not serve Saint Saint Saiwen.

At that time, the Revolutionary Army can conveniently fill the gap in military strength and support the foundation of the new order.

Furthermore, Saint Saint Saiwen never intended from the very beginning to fully absorb the old Marine forces into the new regime.

Even in a world where pirates are powerful enough to defeat ten thousand men, military power must be firmly held in one's own hands.

"Stabilize the Four Seas?" Dragon sighed.

"We... never thought of it."

Before meeting Saint Saint Saiwen, what bitter days the Revolutionary Army lived through; soldiers didn't even have a decent weapon, and sometimes they often went hungry.

It was only in the last two or three years, supported by the huge military funds continuously allocated by Saint Saint Saiwen, that the Revolutionary Army truly achieved a complete transformation.

From then on, there was no need to live in straitened circumstances, completely escaping the predicament of material scarcity.

Even so, the Revolutionary Army was still insignificant in the face of the World Government; therefore, Dragon didn't even dare to fantasize, but walked forward step by step with his feet on the ground.

"It is time to think about it." Saint Saint Saiwen smiled.

"Think boldly,

after all, there are over 170 member countries, and many non-member countries frequently attacked by pirates."

"These are enough to give one a headache."

Hearing this, Dragon nodded.

Compared to the simple and crude act of overthrowing the World Government, how to reshape the order, peacefully take control of over a hundred nations, and root out the chaos of pirate proliferation at its source, is the truly thorny problem.

Dragon admitted he was indeed not good at this.

But judging from the current situation in Inazuma, Saint Saint Saiwen should be very skilled at governing a country.

"Dragon, make preparations as soon as possible."

"If you encounter talent in administration, remember to keep an eye out; we will need them in the future."

After instructing Dragon a few times, Saint Saint Saiwen passed through the opened spatial gate to Honeysuckle Island, preparing to trick Senior Shi Ji into going to the East Blue.

To kidnap the Straw Hat Crew's navigator.

After all, with less than seven months remaining, it would be better to kidnap Little Nami's family as well, to avoid the sons' navigator accidentally perishing when the Four Seas erupt in rebellion.

There is also the disciple Saint Saint Saiwen booked years ago, Shimotsuki Kuina, and the villagers of Onigashima.

Have Senior Shi Ji kidnap the entire island back.

New World, Onigashima.

Since absorbing the Vincent Mok family into the fold, plus the return of the former Calamity Hanafuzza to the ranks, the current Beasts Pirates' foundation has become even more solid.

Not only did they possess Calamity In, Calamity Queen, and Calamity King, but two new Calamities had been added: Calamity Gazi and Calamity Hanafuza.

Though they still could not match the Morning Star Fleet.

Yet as Kaido gazed at those talented seedlings snatched from all corners of the East and South Seas, his eyes instantly filled with absolute confidence.

Kaido believed: the day these seedlings grew up would be the day the Beasts Pirates decisively crushed the Morning Star Fleet.

By then, he could also bring Yamato back.

Just ten years, or perhaps fifteen.

Yamato, old man will definitely save you.

Precisely because these seedlings were the future of the Beasts Pirates, Kaido personally took on the role of instructor to subject them to hellish special training.

Three days, one big beating; one day, three small beatings.

Exactly the same as how he treated Yamato in previous years, and how he treated Doflamingo in recent years.

In short, one word: beat!

Beat out Armament Haki, beat out Observation Haki, and finally use Conqueror's Haki to conduct shock-resistance special training.

The first two types of training were Kaido's original creations, while the shock-resistance training was learned from a Marine Academy teacher he had kidnapped.

After the battle at Marineford, whether for officers in the Four Seas or the Headquarters, a new test item was added to all promotions: Conqueror's Haki shock resistance.

It was said that Fleet Admiral Sengoku had specially established this assessment item to counter Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen's Conqueror's Haki.

Kaido found it quite interesting, so he simply copied the Marines' homework.

As for copying homework, Kaido was familiar with it; recently, he had been copying Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen's homework.

"Boss." King approached and lowered his voice: "Charlotte Lingling's experiment had a bit of an accident."

"What kind of accident?" Kaido raised an eyebrow.

If not for worrying that Lingling might withhold Gazi like someone else did, Kaido would never have allowed Lingling to conduct experiments on Onigashima.

Onigashima is the Beasts Pirates' main base!

What if Lingling's food craving struck?

"The offspring Gazi cultivated for Lingling, although their bodies developed very quickly, their brains don't seem very sharp; they look rather stupid."

Hearing this, Kaido grinned.

"Let's go, let's go take a look together."
