Chapter 211: Oden Kneels
Roger’s eyes seemed to be able to directly penetrate the giant screen and reach the hearts of everyone watching the movie.
He really agreed to the Revolutionary Army’s cloning plan. This sounds a little abnormal, but it feels that it is indeed something Roger can do.
After watching the movie until now, everyone basically knows that this legendary Pirate King is now suffering from a terminal illness and does not have much time left.
Combined with the execution that opened the Great Pirate Era to the world.
I am afraid that this legendary man’s life is only the last year and a half.
Through this information, watching this section again, an indescribable feeling comes over.
This is a man’s entrustment and the handover of the times.
Roger defeated Rocks, announcing the arrival of his era, and half a year later, he conquered the Grand Line and completed the coronation of the king.
These ten years belong to Roger’s era.
And after that, it must belong to the Revolutionary Army-era.
The era of pirates is over, and the era of the Revolutionary Army will completely come.
At the intersection of this era, the king of pirates chose to entrust his power to the new era.
The eight hundred years of rule may really come to an end in the next decade.
This world will truly usher in a new era.
“It really looks like a decision you can make, Roger.”
In the Sabaody Archipelago, Rayleigh’s eyes were sparkling.
“Captain Roger.”
Shanks subconsciously stretched out his hand, as if there was still the straw hat that held his will in this hand.
“This is the Pirate King.”
On the Sunny, Luffy’s expression was rare and serious. He looked at Roger on the giant screen and pressed the straw hat on his head.
Just like the world-shaking execution in Rogue Town.
This man is used to doing things like this, where a person dies but his will lives on.
Death, for him, may just be a new life.
[“Maybe, after you complete your voyage, a cure for your disease has been developed here.”]
[In the Vegapunk laboratory, Vegapunk still had an almost fanatical smile on his face, recording Roger’s physical data and drawing blood for research. ]
[And Roya smiled and said on the side. ]
[It’s not impossible. There is no absolutely terminal illness in this world. ]
[The so-called terminal illness is just a disease that cannot be cured under current technical conditions. ]
[The Red Flag Country now has the best scientists and doctors in the world. It is not completely impossible to treat Roger’s disease. ]
[The only problem is whether Roger’s body can hold on until then. 】
【“That’s great.” Roger said calmly, but with some hope. 】
【“It’s really rare. I thought you wouldn’t care.” Luo Ya joked. 】
【At this time, Vegapunk had finished drawing blood. Roger sat up from the bed and said with a complicated expression. 】
【”How can I not care about death? After all, I am also a human being.” 】
【”There are also some things that I can’t let go of and want to see.” 】
【Roger’s expression was rare for a moment of loneliness, but he quickly returned to his carefree, optimistic and positive smile. 】
【”That’s good. My power is entrusted to you, Roya. Bring me a few more mechanical tools here.” 】
【”No problem, just take whatever you like.” Roya also said with a smile. 】
【As for life and death, neither of them talked about it again. 】
【Roger and Roya left together, leaving only the very excited Vegapunk. 】
【This is the blood of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger. If the corresponding Seraph can really be cloned, it will definitely be the best. 】
[Maybe he can really reach the level of an admiral. 】
[Compared to this, Kaido’s is too lame. 】
[“It would be great if Rayleigh and Jabba from Roger’s pirate group could also draw a portion of blood, and Whitebeard as well.” Vegapunk thought greedily. 】
[The Seraphim Corps, which is composed entirely of legendary pirates, is very exciting just to think about. 】
[However, the most urgent task is to break through the devil fruit cloning technology. He has already made some progress in the cloning technology of animal-type fruits. 】
[Kaido’s mythical beast species is pretty good. Let’s use it for the first cloning experiment. 】
[The next morning, Roya slept in for a rare time. 】
[The current Red Flag Country has basically entered the right stage of development, and infrastructure construction can be carried out step by step. 】
【According to the current construction speed and the required resources, the underground black market is sufficient. 】
【The Red Flag Country has advanced mechanical technology, especially the simple modified Sea Power, which is very popular in the black market. Seastone is also very popular and the price remains high. 】
【With the two underground black market routes of Whitebeard and Jin, the transaction is absolutely safe and the resources are sufficient in a short time. 】
【In two months, the newly reclaimed farmland in the three places of Flower City, Baiwu and Rabbit Bowl, where the climatic conditions are very good, can harvest the first batch of grain. 】
【With Mori and Fujitora, the area of reclaimed fields is far more than the current population of the Red Flag Country needs. In addition, the Balkimoa scientists have developed agricultural tools suitable for mechanized farming in large flat fields, so farming does not require too many people. 】
【By then, the harvested grain will not only supply the Red Flag Country, but also have a large surplus. 】
[This part can be sold on the underground black market in exchange for more resources. 】
[The uprising of hundreds of countries has continued to this day, and the world’s food prices are constantly rising. This is inevitable. 】
[After thinking about the future development in his mind, Luo Ya got up and went out to have breakfast. 】
[After breakfast, he used the double gravity gun to do his daily sword training. ]
[His physique is currently a shortcoming, after all, the age limit is here, and his physique also affects the practice of Armament Haki. ]
[He can only withstand the double gravity gun now. Stronger physical masters like Zephyr have already used special gravity devices with dozens of times for training. ]
[During the training, Roya also met the former daimyo and several retainers under Oden. At this moment, they are teaming up and heading to the temporary residence of Roger Pirates. ]
[The daimyo should have been reformed in Kuri. Without formal procedures, they could not leave Kuri at all. ]
[However, Roya gave an order, and they also took the train to the Flower Capital. ]
[It is obvious that they are going to find Kozuki Oden. 】
【Seeing this, Luo Ya didn’t care and continued to practice. 】
【In the temporary residence of the Roger Pirates, Kozuki Oden’s room, at this moment, this not-so-big room is already full of people. 】
【In addition to Oden’s father Kozuki Sukiyaki, there are three daimyo. 】
【Among them, the daimyo of Linghou, Shimotsuki Ushimaru, did not choose to meet Kozuki Oden. 】
【The other three are all here. In addition, the retainers of the Kozuki family, Kin’emon and his friends, and the boss of the Flower Capital gang, Heigoro. 】
【The big figures of Wano Country are basically all here at this moment. 】
【And they have only one purpose for coming here at this moment, that is, to ask Kozuki Oden to lead them to take back the land that should belong to them. 】
【They used to be daimyo above ten thousand people, and they were honestly reformed under Luo Ya’s suppression. 】
【However, how could they easily give up the power and wealth in their hands. 】
【It was only because of the huge gap in strength that they chose to compromise. Now that they saw Kozuki Oden, they were more confident. 】
【They could see that the Oden, who was as strong as a monster at the beginning, had become even more terrifying after going to sea for several years. 】
【With such strength, I am afraid he could really lead them to overthrow the tyranny of the revolutionary army. 】
【“Please, Oden.” The daimyo looked hopeful. 】
【“Lead us to take back our homeland, Lord Oden.” The retainers headed by Kin’emon knelt on the ground with earnest eyes. 】
【Sukiyaki remained silent, and Hyogoro smoked his pipe in silence. 】
【These two are the most experienced and the two who are least optimistic about the action. 】
[The strength of the Revolutionary Army is not something they can resist at all. 】
[Although Hyogoro is a gangster, he traveled around Wano Country when he was young and still has chivalry in his heart. 】
[He doesn’t own so much land like a daimyo. He has seen the changes in Wano Country. Zephyr values him very much. In this process, he can also feel the chivalry in Zephyr’s heart. 】
【To be honest, he is no longer as repulsive to the Revolutionary Army as he was in the past. 】
【In fact, many times, compared to Sukiyaki, he admires Zephyr more, both in terms of strength and character. 】
【Now he comes here just to see Oden, and their relationship is still very good. 】
【Faced with everyone’s hopeful eyes, Oden did not respond immediately. 】
【He was very embarrassed, and his eyes became evasive. 】
【He really couldn’t refuse the requests of these friends in front of him, but he couldn’t agree either. 】
【It’s not because he knows that the power of the Revolutionary Army is too strong. 】
【It’s because he has no time to carry these things in Wano Country now. He has seen this last legendary journey on Roger’s ship. 】
· ···Please give flowers······ ·
【They will truly conquer this sea and get all the secrets of the world. 】
【Now is the most critical moment, and also the only time Roger has left. He cannot be dragged in Wano Country, even though he knows that Wano Country is undergoing drastic changes. 】
【“Sorry, everyone.” 】
【After a long silence, when the daimyo’s retainers finally realized that something was wrong, Oden got off his seat and knelt in front of everyone, slamming his head hard on the ground. 】
【“Give me a little more time, at most half a year, just the last half a year, wait for me to complete this last great journey.” 】
【“When that time comes, I will come back and take on everything in Wano Country.” 】
【“Just, this last time.” 】
【Oden said loudly. 】
【He knew that this rejection would disappoint many people, even make them desperate, but no, he couldn’t stop here. 】
【No matter what the reason is, he must complete the journey here. 】
【”Oden.” The daimyo looked at Oden in front of him in disbelief, as if he didn’t expect him to give such an answer. 】
【Half a year, half a year later, everything is over. 】
【In just over a month, Wano Country has completely changed. After half a year, will there really be anyone who can resist? 】
【Can they really gather the power of resistance again? Thinking of the young leader of the Revolutionary Army with great skills, even the daimyo himself has no confidence. 】
【But what else can they say? Kozuki Oden has already refused so politely. 】
……. …. …
【Former Shogun Kozuki Sukiyaki didn’t respond much. Maybe they shouldn’t have come to the Flower Capital in the first place, otherwise they wouldn’t be so disappointed. 】
【”I know, I respect your decision, Oden.” The daimyo of Rabbit Bowl stood up and walked out the door. 】
[He said respect, but everyone can seeHe was extremely disappointed at this moment. 】
【After Udon Daimyo left, Hime Daimyo also left. 】
【Only Shimotsuki Yasuie of Hakumai had a very good relationship with Oden, and with a gentle personality, although he was disappointed, he did not choose to leave. 】
【The room became silent. The daimyo could still express some dissatisfaction. It was impossible for the Kuri retainers to question the decision made by their master. 】
【“Lord Oden.” Inuarashi and Nekomamushi standing behind Oden had complicated expressions. 】
【They were the ones who could understand Oden the most. After all, they also followed Oden to board Roger’s ship. This was an undoubted great voyage, and its significance had surpassed Wano Country itself. 】
【“Do what you want to do.” In the end, it was Kozuki Sukiyaki who broke the silence. 】
【“It may not be a bad thing for the revolutionary army to rule Wano Country.” Sukiyaki sighed lightly. 】
【After the incident with Kurozumi Orochi, he realized that he was not suitable to be a general at all. He did not have the ability to protect Wano Country. 】
【He was more suitable to be a swordsmith and collect some beautiful girl dolls. 】
【And his son was also not suitable to be a general. He had the ability, but he could not bear the responsibility. 】
【That’s fine. Let it go. As a father, he did not want his son to fight against the Revolutionary Army. That would be like hitting a rock with an egg. 】
【”Father.” Oden looked at his father in surprise. Unexpectedly, the one who supported him in the end was his father who had always opposed his going to sea. 】
【Someone soon reported what happened to Kozuki Oden to Roya. 】
【After all, the fact that Daimyo Nozomi and Daimyo Usagi left in anger could not be concealed at all. 】
【”I know.” Roya nodded, as expected. 】
【Kozuki Oden is not a bad person at heart. He is not a bad person, although his thinking is often different from that of ordinary people. 】
【But he is definitely not a suitable leader. Compared with a leader, he is more like a pirate, and he is more like a natural pirate. 】
【He has an extraordinary desire and selfishness for freedom. 】
【This desire and selfishness can make him give up the construction of Kuri, all relationships, and go to sea with Whitebeard, whom he met for the first time. 】
【This desire and selfishness will also make him choose to complete this last journey with Roger regardless of everything. 】
【The country and the people are not as important to him as this journey, just like he went to sea with Whitebeard without telling anyone a few years ago. 】
【He was pushed to the position of leader, which is incompatible with him, just because he is the son of the general. If he is not the son of the general, being a simple pirate may be better for him. 】Xi.
