Moria the Pirate - Chapter 239

c239 The Golden Lion was defeated, and the naval reformists

“Shadow Warrior·Teleport”

Seeing the slowly rising Big Ivan, Moriah instantly activated teleportation.

Fearing that he would be affected.

As for Golden Lion, he was not so lucky.

First, he was attacked by Moriah, and now, because he did not escape in time, he was caught in the explosion of Big Ivan. The huge shock wave instantly shattered Golden Lion’s internal organs, and his head was dizzy and unconscious.

When Hogbak took over, he was only one breath left.

“Do everything possible to make him alive!”

Because a living Golden Lion has greater value.

However, the most urgent thing is to think about how to end it.

“Moriah, do you have the Pluto?”

Aokiji has put away his laziness in the past and asked seriously.

The weapons fired by the Moriah Pirates just now are really shocking.

In particular, the last Big Ivan launched was powerful enough to destroy an island, which was exactly the same as Pluto’s description.

“Yes!”

In this situation, even if Moria denied it, no one would believe that Big Ivan was not Pluto, so Moria simply admitted it.

“But I won’t hand it over!”

Although Moria’s voice sounded light, his tone revealed his unquestionable determination.

Although Moria seemed very passive after being manipulated by the Golden Lion, Moria is no longer the chess piece that could be manipulated at will.

If the World Government is determined to turn against him, Moria will not hesitate to give up many industries. At most, he will go from above ground to underground like the Revolutionary Army.

Of course, that is the worst plan.

After all, if they really attack themselves, the World Government will not have an easy time.

It depends on whether the World Government is determined to tear its face.

“Huh!”

Aokiji and Moria looked at each other for a long time. Finally, Aokiji let out a long breath, looked at Moria and the alert pirate group cadres behind him, and returned to a lazy look.

“Don’t worry, it’s really a headache!”

“I heard from Kizaru that you have many navy veterans here. I’ll go see if I can find my old acquaintances.”

“Besides, I haven’t relaxed for a long time. I heard that the sanatorium here is good!”

······

Just like that, Aokiji walked into the horror three-masted ship as if nothing had happened.

“Captain!”

“Don’t worry about him. Let’s do the post-war work first!”

“What’s coming can’t be avoided.”

Looking at Aokiji’s back, Moria said slowly.

Just when Moria’s pirate group was cleaning up the battlefield, what happened here quickly spread to all parts of the world.

“The legend ends, the Golden Lion is defeated!”

“He is the master of Hades”

······

Eye-catching headlines spread the explosive news quickly, and instantly pushed Moria to the forefront.

People shouted that a new emperor was born on the sea.

After all, defeating the Golden Lion and holding the ancient weapon Hades, no matter which piece of news, is enough to prove Moria’s strength and confidence.

For a time, many pirates came to Moria and asked to join the Moria Pirates, which was very popular.

However, some people also expressed their concerns. One newspaper used a photo of Moria and Aokiji confronting each other as the headline, believing that a war might break out between Moria and the navy, and the first half of the Grand Line and the Four Seas region might become a ruin.

Such reports scared a large number of people, and they prayed that the war would not break out.

As time went by, Moria’s Thriller Bark stayed in the West Sea for repairs, and taught some pirates a lesson.

The World Government and the Navy seemed to be unaware of such a major event and did not take any action.

Of course, except for Aokiji, he still stayed on the Thriller Bark, eating and sleeping, and continued his vacation.

Moria knew that this was only because the World Government had a lot of disagreements on how to deal with Moria, and once a conclusion was reached, such a peaceful life would end.

“No, I will never accept it!”

Hearing such a solution, Akainu instantly exploded, his fists instantly turned into lava, and the temperature of the conference room instantly rose.

“Akainu, this is the final decision of the Five Elders, and the Navy must execute it.”

Sengoku was actually very dissatisfied with the result of such a treatment.

After all, let’s not talk about the distant past. Moria alone funded many retired veterans for free, took them to the Thriller Bark for retirement, and sent many children who had been educated in orphanages to the Navy to join the army.

If you say there is no conspiracy, Zhan Guo doesn’t believe it!

But Zhan Guo still acquiesced to Moria’s action. First, the navy really didn’t have extra money to accommodate so many retired veterans; second, the orphans sent by Moria had good qualifications, so Zhan Guo couldn’t refuse.

Anyway, they were all orphans. At most, they could educate them more and gradually eliminate Moria’s influence.

But everyone was thinking in the wrong direction. The orphans sent by Moria were not sent to the navy as spies, but to instill reform ideas into the navy.

Such as: the navy should uphold justice and fight crime; the navy should uphold fairness, say no to the powerful, and protect civilians; the navy should fight against human traffickers and prohibit all underground transactions…

Once these ideas were brought into the navy, they spread like crazy weeds among the vast navy and could not be eliminated.

After all, those who came to the navy basically had a heart of justice, and most of them came from poor people, so it was easy for them to accept such ideas.

Even Zhan Guo himself was somewhat tempted. As long as these were realized one by one, the navy would never live up to the name of justice.

But this was impossible, because the navy was just a violent organization, responsible only for catching pirates, and reforms were the business of the world government.

However, reform ideas had already blossomed everywhere, and were no longer limited to the navy who came from Moria’s orphanage.

If you really count, a new faction has emerged in the navy, the reformists.

Moreover, the influence of the reformists is even greater than that of the hawks represented by Akainu and the doves represented by Aokiji, and they have become the real largest faction in the navy.

Not long ago, the head of a base of a naval branch promoted reforms in his jurisdiction, destroyed underground trading places, protected civilians, punished illegal nobles, etc., and the matter was a big deal.

The local nobles strongly demanded that he be executed, and officials of the World Government also frequently put pressure on him. And the generals in the navy stood up one by one and supported the head of the base.

In the end, after repeated negotiations, the head of the base was only relieved of his post as a general and demoted to an ordinary soldier, saving his life.

At this point, Sengoku finally understood that Moria’s real purpose was to provoke a conflict between the navy and the world government.

However, what if he knew it? This was an open conspiracy, a real open conspiracy.

Pull the navy onto the path of reform and gradually move towards the opposition to the World Government.

As for whether the navy’s reform will succeed, it is not Moria’s business, because the purpose of provoking contradictions has been achieved.
