Chapter 320 The Revolutionary Army Prepares to Take Action

A new day begins with a series of phone calls.

Without any urge to shake off his drowsiness, Ning Yuan answered the phone in a daze.

"Feed?"

"It's me, Dragon!"

"Oh!" Ning Yuan shook his head and looked around.

This is definitely not Hina's room, it's Nami's.

Although Ning Yuan had assigned Nami a job, she hadn't officially taken up the post yet, so she was still sleeping.

Ning Yuan gently kissed Nami, then quietly got out of bed and went to the next room: "Why did you suddenly decide to call me?"

"The core strength of the Revolutionary Army has already been transferred to the East China Sea. We have also deployed personnel to several countries here. Everyone has been studying for a long time and is now very enthusiastic. They want to find a country to practice on!" Dragon said.

Ning Yuan nodded. Dorag had a lot to say, but the meaning was simple: Our Revolutionary Army wants to take action. What's your attitude?

"If you're going to take action, I'll definitely support you, but are you sure you're ready?" Ning Yuan asked.

"Ready!" Dragon nodded. "I've already printed out your words, and the Eleven Points of Discipline have been fully disseminated to the soldiers. The only problem is that there hasn't been enough time to learn the more detailed instructions yet!"

"That's not what I meant!" Ning Yuan said. "Do you know how much money a kingdom has?"

"I know a little!" Dragon nodded. "We've conquered some kingdoms before!"

"And then?" Ning Yuan laughed, "You didn't thoroughly purge the nobility. Even if you took a portion of the property, it was only the portion belonging to the king. In reality, the king's property is just a negligible part of a kingdom!"

"Is that so?" Dragon was taken aback. "That doesn't make sense. Logically, the king should be the richest person!"

"What I'm saying might not be entirely accurate, but that's the situation in Alabasta anyway. The king is dirt poor, while the nobles are incredibly wealthy!" Ning Yuan laughed. "However, regardless of the situation, as long as you intend to thoroughly purge the nobles, you will all acquire a considerable fortune!"

Dragon asked thoughtfully, "You mean, you want it?"

Ning Yuan's face darkened: "What would I do with your money? What I mean is, the Revolutionary Army is very powerful and united. Even an opponent like the World Government can't defeat you, but that might not be the case when it comes to money!"

"Faced with immense wealth, magnificent palaces, and beautiful women everywhere, can you and your team maintain your original aspirations?"

"Huh!" Dragon was taken aback, then fell silent.

He can guarantee that he can stay true to his original aspirations. After all, he gave up a promising future to join the revolution. If he hadn't done all that, he would definitely be a naval admiral now.

But his subordinates might not have that motivation.

"So what should we do?" Dragon asked.

If you're ever in doubt, ask Ningyuan; he'll definitely be fine.

"Before attacking the kingdom, we must arrange the follow-up matters, such as setting up banks in advance to handle the assets of these old nobles. We must declare military discipline in advance, warning all soldiers not to rob, kill, or rape after entering the city, and all officers not to marry, accept bribes, or celebrate birthdays after entering the city. Moreover, mere declarations are not enough; we must also establish a disciplinary inspection mechanism, such as setting up a military discipline inspection team!"

"We do have a military discipline inspection team, but what about the other ones? Didn't we already have them in the previous eleven points of discipline?" Dorag asked.

"Military discipline isn't enough just to exist; it needs to be repeatedly emphasized and memorized by every soldier. The purpose of establishing military discipline isn't to wait for soldiers to make mistakes and then punish them, but to prevent them from violating it!" Ning Yuan said. "Furthermore, 11 o'clock is just the most basic discipline; for specific situations, we need to establish more detailed rules!"

Dragon nodded: "I understand, I'll go arrange it right away!!"

Ning Yuan hummed in agreement, then asked, "By the way, what was the World Government's reaction after you saved certain countries?"

"In the early days, things would be very tense, and they would even send in the navy and army for a joint operation to suppress it. Buster Calls were issued more than once. But these days, they don't do that anymore; sometimes there's hardly any reaction at all!"

At this point, Dragon blushed slightly.

The World Government's lack of response to the Revolutionary Army's actions clearly indicates that it has realized the Revolutionary Army poses no real threat.

In the first two years after they emerged, I was quite startled. I thought someone was really going to overthrow the World Government. Who would have thought that the revolutionary army's method of revolution was just to change the king?

What kind of revolution is this? Once your revolutionary army leaves and the navy threatens us, won't these kingdoms still have to pay us "heavenly gold"?

Knowing this, Ning Yuan did not stop Dorrag's operation, but only hoped that he could make more thorough preparations.

Although the Marineford War will begin in a few months, which would be the best time to cause trouble, it wouldn't hurt to start a few months earlier.

The World Government will not react much until it realizes that the Revolutionary Army has changed its ways.

Ning Yuan nodded: "In that case, let's give the World Government a surprise. Where do you plan to start?"

"The Kingdom of Goa!" Dragon exclaimed.

Don't ask why I chose the Kingdom of Goa, because the Kingdom of Goa is inhumane, and a great fire caused the people there to lose all their hearts.

Moreover, the distinction between nobles and commoners in the Kingdom of Goa was clear, so launching an uprising here would have the least impact on ordinary people.

Ning Yuan looked at the map. The Goa Kingdom was definitely smaller than Alabasta, but it was still quite large, about a quarter the size of Alabasta.

However, due to the lack of decent arable land and the presence of garbage everywhere, the total population is not large, only a little over three million.

"The Kingdom of Goa is a good place. Not only is it easy to take over, but even if the navy comes to besiege us, we can use the garbage dump to fight a guerrilla war with the navy!" Ning Yuan agreed.

Because it had already been burned once, the navy couldn't burn it again.

As for the so-called Demon Slayer Order...

Only the locals who don't know much about the world would be afraid of this, but Ningyuan is not afraid at all.

Have you heard of trenches and culverts? Have you heard of foxholes?

Even if the cannons of the Age of Exploration were powerful, could they be stronger than the American cannons of the Shangganling period? Yet they still managed to defend against them.

"I'm glad you agree!" Dragon breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had succeeded many times before, this time he was using a new method.

He always felt uneasy unless the founder of the new method gave his approval.

"Once you're ready, get started. After taking over the Goa Kingdom, we'll unite the people, develop the economy, and summarize our experiences. After about six months, we'll have a good grasp of the methods, and then we can transplant them to other places!" Ning Yuan said. "Using this method, we might not progress as quickly as before, but it will definitely be much more stable!"

"I understand!" Dragon nodded. "I'll go prepare right away!"

"Then I wish you all the best in your career!"

"You too, take care of yourself!" Dorag knew Ning Yuan had many wives, but he wasn't envious at all.

Each person has their own mission.

Moreover, Ning Yuan's marriage was also a way to lull the world government into a false sense of security, all for the sake of the revolutionary cause!

Otherwise, how could a king be so self-disciplined, incorruptible, frugal, and have only one wife?

Is this reasonable?

The world government would immediately sense something was wrong!

After hanging up the phone, Ning Yuan saw Nami standing beside him, looking at him nervously.

"I heard everything!" Nami whispered. "Is a war about to break out?"

"War is brewing!" Ning Yuan nodded. "But not in Alabasta!"

"I know!" Nami nodded. "I'm just a little worried about my sister!"

"Don't worry!" Ning Yuan gently stroked Nami's smooth short hair. "Your sister is much stronger than you now, and she also has the Goddess of Wisdom by her side. As long as she doesn't encounter any long-established lieutenant generals or admirals, she won't be in danger!"

After all, Nojiko possesses a legendary inheritance, and she also has a sword that she ate from the Float-Float Fruit!

Adding the goddess of wisdom, this is equivalent to having two legendary items and one diamond item by your side.

With this kind of equipment, they could roam freely even in the first half of the Grand Line, let alone a mere East Blue!

"Okay!" Nami nodded emphatically, as long as she's safe.

She's even left the Straw Hat Pirates now.

In other words, now her only family members are Ning Yuan and Nuoqi Gao.

She didn't want her sister to be in danger.

"Oh, right, there are clothes I prepared for you in the closet!" Ning Yuan said. "Change into them later, and then we'll head to the capital!"

"What are we going to the capital for?" Nami was inexplicably nervous. Was she going to see the princess?

"Have you forgotten that you are the president of the Royal Bank?" Ning Yuan was speechless.

"Oh right, right!" Nami suddenly realized, "I almost forgot, I'm a person of high status and power now!"

Nami immediately rushed back to her bedroom to change her clothes.

Ning Yuan, however, was controlling the Goddess of Wisdom and brought up a video.

Don't get me wrong, Ning Yuan isn't that perverted; he wasn't watching Nami change clothes.

He was monitoring Blackbeard and Luffy's pirate crew.

Blackbeard is still in a dormant phase. He was in Alabasta a few days ago and didn't do anything. He even knows to pay for his meals normally.

Then today, the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at Jaya Island first, followed closely by Blackbeard, who also landed on Jaya Island.

The two pirate crews have now met at a restaurant on Jaya Island. Luffy says he wants to go to Skypiea, which makes him the target of ridicule from all the pirates.

However, Luffy will not be discouraged, because now he has a smart map to guide him and clearly knows that there is indeed an island in the sky.

Logically, with the smart map, one could continue forward without landing on the sky island, but that's the thinking of a normal person, while Luffy is clearly not a normal person.

He wanted to see what scenery was on the sky island, so how could he give up halfway?

However, to be fair, it's not just Luffy who wants to see Skypiea; Ning Yuan wants to see it too!

He'd never seen an island floating in the air before!

Not to mention the towering currents that can lift ships to over 7,000 meters.

"Nami!" Ning Yuan suddenly called out.

"Huh?" Nami's voice came from the bedroom.

"Would you like to experience the Sky-Piercing Current?" Ning Yuan asked.

"Ugh!" Nami pouted, annoyed. "It's daytime!"

Ning Yuan sighed, "You little rascal, why is your hair as yellow as your hair? I was talking about the real Sky Current, which can reach the Sky Island!"

"Sky Island?" Nami poked her head out of the bedroom. "Is it that legendary Sky Island?"

"That's it, but it's not the legendary island; this island actually exists!" Ning Yuan said. "Luffy's ship is currently at the Skyfall Current. If you'd like to see it, I'll take you there!"

"But don't I still have to go to work?" Nami's face clearly showed a hint of hesitation.

After all, being a navigator was her dream!

But the thought of another bank waiting for her to take over made Nami a little conflicted.

"Working doesn't necessarily have to be in person; you can work remotely!" Ning Yuan laughed. "Just talk to the Goddess of Wisdom and ask her to arrange a meeting between you and your subordinates online!"

"That works too?" Nami asked in surprise.

Ning Yuan nodded: "It was possible!"

If people in this world weren't still getting used to this way of working, Ningyuan would have already switched to online office work.

No, he might go straight to unmanned offices.

"Yay!" Nami clenched her fists. "When do we leave? I've already changed!"

He could experience the soaring ocean currents and take over the Royal Bank at the same time—it was the best of both worlds.

"No rush!" Ning Yuan laughed. "It'll probably be tomorrow!"

Luffy has only just landed on Jaya Island. He still has to face the Saruyama Alliance and reinforce the Going Merry, which will take time.

"It can only be tomorrow!" Nami's high spirits immediately vanished.

"But it wouldn't hurt for us to go to Gaya Island for a visit!" Ning Yuan added.

He also wanted to try the cherry pie that Luffy and Blackbeard had completely opposite opinions about—whether it was delicious or not.

"Hey!" Nami rushed out and grabbed Ning Yuan by the neck: "Is it fun to make my heart jump up and down like this?"

"Ah, spare me, spare me!"

"Will you dare to do this again?"

"Yeah, you'll do it again next time!"

"Um?"
