I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 575: Work! Pay! Rule!

After checking the armory, Sarge headed to another, deeper hiding place.

It was a huge place like a shrine, with huge knotted ropes hanging on the gate pillars shaped like torii.

Under the torii is a circle of stone thresholds, and inside the thresholds is an extremely large red square stone with a large number of incomprehensible words engraved on it.

Signpost historical text!

"Red again."

Renidia said, "Sage, with this piece, you now have three pieces, right?"

Jhin and Quinn were still immersed in what Sager had just said. When they heard this, their minds seemed to be refreshed and they were both stunned.

"Three dollars?!"

Quinn was surprised and asked, "Why are there three pieces?"

They had one piece and Big Mom had one piece, they knew that, but that was only two pieces, where did the third piece come from.

They had been in the sea for so long, and there was no sign of the third piece.

Sager said, "Zauli had a piece, and I found it."

“That place.”

Jin's pupils shrank for a second, and he nodded again: "It makes sense. We are both a race with a long history, and we are giant elephants that can move. No one can find us if we hide there. Three pieces?"

He looked at Sager deeply and said, "Pirate King, we are just one piece short."

They even knew that Big Mom had a three-eyed daughter who could understand the historical text after awakening.

Now most of the elements have been gathered. We just need to wait for the three-eyed tribe to awaken, and the Pirate King Raftel will be just around the corner!
I never thought that Sager could collect so much.

In their eyes, historical texts are not an urgent option.

First, it was really hard to find. Apart from the two pieces they knew the source of, they had no clue about the rest. There was a rumor about a burned man.
and many more!

"The characteristic of the burned man is that there is a huge whirlpool of ocean current when a black ship approaches."

Jin stared at Sarge, "Governor, are you..."

"Go! Go! Go."

Sarge rolled his eyes. "Do I look like someone who would announce that I only have one piece of historical text? I'm not burned. If I were a burned man, I would have exactly four pieces. I'll ask someone to translate it and find Raftel to get the career peak pawn first."

"translate?"

Jin was stunned for a moment and asked: "Governor, there are rumors that you are O'Hara's orphan."

"Correct."

"That's where I came from," said Sage.

There was a hint of recognition in Jin's eyes.

They are all orphans. Although they are of different races, their identities are the same.

Also having the same situation.
Of course, what is more important is that O’Hara’s historians can understand the historical text.

Rather than waiting for the three-eyed tribe to awaken, it’s better to have something ready-made.

"In that case, why do we need to translate it? Can't we just read it?" Jhin asked.

"I don't care."

Sarge rolled his eyes, "I don't even know modern characters, and you expect me to know ancient characters?"

Although after a long time, some things will become familiar, and the general meaning of words that are seen frequently can be understood by oral description.

For example, some words like English, and some "Ya Me Dayo" and the like.

But I still don’t know him.

He is so busy, who has time to learn to read?

"The people at O'Hara can't read?"

Quinn was confused by what Sarge said.

"What's wrong with being illiterate? I remember that guy, the leader of the Nine Red Scabbards, Kin'emon, wasn't illiterate either." Sager wasn't embarrassed at all.

Is that illiteracy?

That was the way he came!
Quinn: "..."

In fact, there are some differences. Under the rule of Orochi, it cannot be said that the average person in Wano Country is illiterate, but at least they have completed prenatal education.

O'Hara is different.

He knew more than Jhin, after all, he was once in the same organization as Vegapunk.

At that time, O'Hara had not yet been destroyed. It was not a legend, but just an ordinary island for historians.

But not everyone is a scholar, there are still ordinary people. But no matter how ordinary a person is, literacy is the most basic.

A country with a strong historical atmosphere and a country with tyranny that doesn't care about people's lives, how can the illiteracy in them be the same?

But he didn't dare say that.

It would be embarrassing to contradict the new boss.

"Take this back."

Sager pointed to the historical text on the signpost and said with a smile, "There is one last piece left. That's easy to solve. I roughly know where it is."

"???"

Question marks appeared above Jhin and Quinn’s heads.

You said you were not the burned man, so how do you know about the last piece?

"This kind of road sign has a strong historical atmosphere. If it is so strong, it must be a place with a long history. Where can I find a place with a long enough history?"

Sarge turned and walked outside, slowly saying, "Wano Country is one. I heard that the historical text was created by them. Zou is an ancient giant elephant that is still alive. The giant tribe should have one, but it was later obtained by Big Mom. The last piece."

He turned around and said to the others: "According to this trajectory, there are only two ancient countries, one is Sky Island and the other is Fishman Island."

"I've been to Sky Island."

Renetia raised her hand and said, "There is a historical text."

When she went to Sky Island with Urouge and Bellamy, in addition to taking the golden pillar, she also took the golden bell, and brought back the historical text under the bell base.

The clock is still on display at the top of the palace.

Sag likes it very much. In addition to being able to demonstrate financial strength and allow people to deposit money with confidence, the strong historical atmosphere that can be discovered by the observation Haki itself is also very valuable.

"That one is about Poseidon, the king of the sea."

Sarge shook his head. "If there is nothing on Sky Island, then there must be Fishman Island. But there is nothing on Fishman Island either. Combined with the rumors about the 'burned man' that appeared in the second half, the range can be determined. We just need to slowly search for it."

He had no recollection of this at all. It wasn't that he had forgotten what happened because it had been so long, but that he simply had no recollection of this aspect of the plot.
But we can still make a rough guess.

The legend of the burned man is more widely circulated in the New World, but the first half certainly did not exist. Before that, there were two big pirates, Kaido and Big Mom, in charge here. Given their obsession with the Pirate King, if such a person really appeared in their territory, he would have been caught long ago.

It must be the relatively mild second half, with Whitebeard and Red Hair as the two people who had no idea about One Piece.

The focus is on the second half of the New World.

After defining this range, think about it again. Now part of the second half is Teach's territory. He has many pirates under his command, and they rob and collect protection fees in groups in the second half.

If the burned man showed up at his place, he naturally couldn't hide it. With Teach's personality, he would definitely take action.

The answer is obvious.

Only redheads!

Or it could be said that it was a place that Red Hair couldn't reach, but Teach couldn't reach even more.

"The world's strongest country, the Giant Kingdom Elbaf!"

Sager stretched out his hand, shook it tightly, and said with a grim smile: "It's probably there!"

No one ever said that the Burnt Man was an ordinary human being.

He can be a merman, a long-armed man, a furry man, and of course a giant!

……

The next day.

The sky in the east began to light up as pale as a fish belly, and gradually a golden edge appeared, making the sky glow.

The darkness dissipated and the sky became bright.

In the villages and towns of Wano Country, all the people were gathered in the square, looking at the pirates with hideous smiles on their faces and wearing studded leather armor in fear.

The style of the Scourge Pirates is actually quite similar to that of the Beasts Pirates.

They are all studded leather armor, the difference is that the Beasts Pirates have a lot of exposed skin besides the studded leather armor. The Calamity Pirates are more like a combination of the Big Mom Pirates' style.

Sarge used to feel uncomfortable with this style of studded leather armor. Although he used the Fist of the North Star, it was not a true apocalyptic style.

Now that he saw them, Sager didn't feel awkward anymore.

It's more like this.

"What are you going to do?"

In the ruined town of Wano Country, a traditional Wano woman in a blue kimono asked the group of pirates.

She is Kin'emon's wife, Ahe.

The news of defeat has been spread by these pirates. The last hope is gone, so they must hide themselves and wait for the opportunity.

But the sudden arrival of the pirates also made her very nervous.

Gathering them all together, are we going to kill them all together?

"Let me show you something!"

The pirate pointed at the makeshift white board, and then pointed at the Den Den Mushi in front of the white board, which was much larger than the ordinary Den Den Mushi.

The Den Den Mushi opened its eyes and emitted virtual light rays that shone onto the whiteboard. The picture on the whiteboard first showed a ruin, and in the ruins, the samurai were kneeling in an empty space in an orderly manner, each of them was shackled, with their heads lowered and not saying a word.

In the first row, there were only three people kneeling there. The two on the left and right were unfamiliar, one was a woman with white hair gradually turning into a green ponytail, and the other was a young man with waist-length black hair. The young man looked familiar, like the deceased Lord Oden.

But it just gives people a sense of familiarity. What is really shocking is
"Big snake?!"

Ah He looked at the black charcoal snake kneeling in the center of the three people and couldn't help but exclaimed, and the next moment, her face turned pale.

It was not because the big snake was caught, but because she saw an acquaintance in the second row.

Her husband, Kin'emon, was kneeling in the second row!

……

“It’s all finished.”

After a busy night, Master Li returned to Sager and said, "All villages and towns in Wano Country will be connected with video Den Den Mushi to ensure that most people can see it."

With the ship's own means of transportation, no matter how large the area of ​​Wano Country is, they can still attack quickly. In addition, the surveillance and dispatch of the royalists allow them to reach the target directly. They also use people from the Beasts Pirates, who are familiar with Wano Country, which makes it more convenient.

Lily didn't go around all of them, she was just in charge of directing the activities. Even so, she was still busy and there was no end to her work.

She was currently at a raised platform in front of the flat square built by Qiangbaru. On the platform was a golden chair brought from the ship. Sag was sitting on it, leaning comfortably with one hand resting on his chin, looking down at the warriors on the platform in front.

The live broadcast footage released by Den Den Mushi was just enough to capture all of them.

"Is that all? Well, never mind. It doesn't matter. A few more slips through the net won't matter."

Sager laughed, glanced at the Wano country civilians who were gathered in a circle not far away, and waved, "Bring a microphone over here."

Palu walked up with a loudspeaker Den Den Mushi and handed it to him. After Lily took it, she handed the microphone to him.

"Um, um hello, hello."

Sag cleared his throat and shouted twice. The loudspeaker Den Den Mushi installed on the surrounding pillars amplified the sound very well, echoing around and allowing the people of Wano country who were watching the live broadcast to hear it.

"My fellow lords of Wano Country, my name is Norton Sage, and the people of the sea gave me the nickname 'Natural Disaster'. But none of this matters. What matters is that from today on, I will replace Kurozumi Orochi and become the ruler here, the only ruler!"

"these people"

He pointed at the people in the square below, "They are all the guys who refused to surrender, the rebellious samurai, the defeated generals, the stubborn pirates, all of them are here."

"Let me introduce you to the first three. The one on the right is called Yamato. She is the daughter of Kaido, the governor of the Beasts Pirates. But I don't think she is like that. Instead, she looks more like Oden's daughter. She is a stubborn person, so she must be executed."

"Wano Country will definitely be founded! Oden's spirit will definitely live forever! We will always win! Sag!" Yamato shouted.

"The one on the left is Kozuki Oden's biological son, Kozuki Momonosuke, the heir to Kuri Daimyo and the grandson of the previous shogun of Wano Country. Logically, he should also be the heir to Wano Country, but Kurozumi Orochi has ruled you for twenty years, which means that this right of succession is just that."

Momonosuke, who looked about 28 years old, lowered his head and shed tears.

Impending death was one of the reasons, but more importantly, he hated himself for failing. He sought so much help and tried his best, but in the end he still failed to win and instead lost the lives of his loyal subordinates.

"The one in the middle, Kurozumi Orochi, right? He failed and I won. It's that simple. There's nothing fancy or righteous about it. I'm not here to save you, I'm here to rule you!"

"I, I surrender!"

Although Kurozumi Orochi was tied up by seastone chains, he was still able to speak. Upon hearing this, he immediately shouted, "Natural Disaster! I surrender, please spare my life! I can serve you! I can help you continue to rule Wano Country!"

"You can surrender, but your identity cannot."

Sarge clicked his tongue and said, "I have no intention of sharing power with anyone, not at all, so you have to die."

"I can become your most loyal dog and do whatever you want me to do! Please spare my life!" Kurozumi Orochi was about to cry.

He was captured in the middle of the battle with Momonosuke. After learning that Kaido was defeated and Natural Disaster took over, he originally wanted to change his backer and let Natural Disaster take charge behind the scenes.

But the other party refused to agree and insisted on killing him.

"Are you crazy to be talking about loyalty to a pirate? As long as I keep winning, I will be loyal no matter what. If I lose, what's the point of being loyal?"

Sager waved his hand and stopped talking to him.

That kid from the Kozuki family is loyal, but so what? He’s going to die anyway, right?

Loyalty to the Sager children?

But this has a prerequisite.
You have to outlive him!

As a master of physical skills who has reached the pinnacle, Sager guarantees that none of his current subordinates will live as long as he does!

He doesn't fight like the Straw Hats who burn their lives and take over other people's bodies.

Although the fifty-fold form is not long enough, he is healthy!
All reinforcements are positive feedback, which is not only powerful but also represents physical evolution.

To be honest, he didn't quite understand why the stronger one became, the shorter his life would be. Shouldn't the stronger one became, the longer one would live?

"Kozuki?!"

In front of the live broadcast of the ruined town, Ahe's pupils shrank, "Is it Master Momonosuke?!"

The symbol of their spiritual survival is now going to be executed? !

No, you can't do that!
"Everyone! We"

Ah He gritted his teeth and was about to encourage the people around him to fight these pirates first and capture the strange snail that seemed to be able to communicate.

"I have a question!"

Just as she was about to take action, a voice suddenly sounded on the live broadcast screen.

The capital of flowers.

Among the crowd of onlookers, a moon-age man stood up and shouted, "How are you going to rule us? Are you going to be like a giant snake, not caring whether we live or die, leaving us without food to starve to death?!"

"Ok?"

Sager turned his head and looked over, stunned for a moment.

The one who spoke was Ah Qiang.
"My name is Jotaro!"

Jotaro yelled again.

Sarge glanced at Lily.

"not me."

Lily whispered, "I didn't arrange for him to do this. It must have been spontaneous."

"That's fine. If someone asks, I can answer it."

Sage smiled and said into the microphone: "It would be a waste to starve to death. I will exploit your labor and make you work for me for the rest of your life, until you die."

Upon hearing this, the people watching around looked desperate.

The black charcoal snake is gone, but here comes a more tyrannical guy?
Ah He from the ruined town took a deep breath and raised his voice, "We are against..."

"I will give you work, I will give you money, I will let you pay taxes, and I will let you buy food. Under my rule, I will ensure that you can have enough food and clothing, and even have extra money to buy more things and generate tax revenue for me."

In the picture, the white-haired man sitting on the golden throne laughed loudly:

"Starving to death? How can you have the energy to work if you don't have enough to eat?"

The air around them suddenly froze, as if it had stopped, causing everyone's faces to freeze.

"Really, really?"

Next to Ah He, a skinny farmer with a pale face asked in a trembling voice.

At the same time, there was another man in tattered clothes in the picture who bravely stood up and asked the same question.

Sager was amused by this question.

"First, I never lie. Second, I am a great landowner who owns the first half of the New World. Are you a weakling qualified to let me target you?"

Sager bared his teeth, "Guaranteed!"

There was silence again.

Jotaro looked around and frowned. He had planned to ask questions in the first place. These people didn't know how good the Governor was, so he had to let them know. It would be best to ask now instead of letting them understand later and thus create unnecessary resistance.

To break the spirit of Oden, this is the best way.

Just let them respect the Governor spontaneously.

The current situation is the best time for the Governor to perform his duties.

But it seems not enough
Jotaro was about to continue asking something to reassure the people of Wano, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his ears suddenly exploded.

"Oh!!!"

Like a tsunami, the people gathered around the square all raised their hands and cheered.

It seemed that the entire Wano Country was shaken by this sound at this moment.

Not only in the Flower City, but in all the villages and towns where the live broadcast was broadcast, people who heard this cheered loudly, with hope in their eyes.

They are not fed up with pollution, they are fed up with hunger and poverty.

The nobles in the Flower City only cared about themselves and never cared about them. The consciousness they had been taught since childhood also made them dare not contact those nobles, so they could only starve.

Unfortunately, now, there is a guy who said he wants to execute the snake and give them food.
The first reaction is definitely disbelief.

But there are so many people there!
Everyone in the villages and towns could see several tall and ferocious pirates here. In the live broadcast, there were also a large number of people dressed differently from them. They must be his men.

To sit on such a good Golden Judge Throne, one must be very powerful.

As a leader of so many people, even if he cannot fulfill his words perfectly, even if only one tenth of them come true, it will be enough!
They just want to have enough to eat, and everything else like having a job or money is just a luxury.

Now, at least there is hope.

When Lily saw the cheering people, there was a hint of fluctuation in her eyes, but there was no surprise at all.

This is obvious.

Sag's rule won't take much effort.

Even if she didn't investigate in person, just from last night's instructions she had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

In the country of Wano, nobles and commoners are separated, with samurai in between.

A division as vast as the abyss of heaven and earth.

It is also very easy for them to take action here.
