Thus, the comparison of the first segment is over, and the white light screen slowly dims.
Cobra: Acherate Roa, it's hard to imagine, he's just a seven or eight-year-old child, but he can actually say such words filled with simple meaning.
King Riku: Compared to the dragon, this boy seems to be lacking a lot, but he also has things that the dragon doesn't.
Roger: I'm looking forward to it, this boy with such ambition, what kind of changes will he bring to this world?
Fujitora: Acherate Roa, is this the boy I saved from another world?
Rocks: There are too many little brats who just talk big in the world, compared to them, I prefer the little brat from the Garp family.
Kidd: Yes, after all, only strength is the fundamental factor that determines the direction of everything in the world. Without strength, everything is just empty talk.
Belo Betty: But he did become the leader of the Revolutionary Army.
Kizaru: It's so curious, how did this boy with nothing become the leader of the Revolutionary Army, how did he rise above the dragon?
Lindbergh: It's the World Government that should be worried, the scandal of the Kingdom of Croyashi is spreading all over the world.
Koala: The World Government frantically embellishes itself, now it's finally going to have its cover blown off.
Saint Nasu Shoulang: Shut up, Revolutionary Army scum.
Monkey D. Dragon: Are even the Five Elders going to break down?
At this moment, while the Revolutionary Army and the World Government are furiously arguing, the black screen lights up again.
【Dragon sets sail in a small boat, he encounters some pirates】
【The pirates in the East Blue are extremely weak, at least in front of Dragon】
【Dragon, who doesn't like to fight, didn't even bother to fight, just using his Conqueror's Haki easily took care of these pirates】
【Dragon didn't stay in the East Blue for long, his small boat was destroyed in a storm, so he joined a merchant ship heading to the North Blue】
【This is the first time Dragon has traveled to other seas, he stayed in the North Blue for a year, witnessing the turmoil and chaos that far surpassed the East Blue】
【“Even in the four seas under the World Government's order, unimaginable hunger and chaos still prevail, the affiliated countries pay a high price for the Heavenly Tribute every year, the basic needs of the common people are not guaranteed.”】
【“The protection promised by the World Government simply doesn't exist, the Navy bases only protect the nobles' capitals, the other small islands have no protection at all, yet they still have to pay the Heavenly Tribute.”】
【“This system is definitely problematic.”】
【Dragon saw things he couldn't see in the East Blue, he decided to change all of this, this year, he was 26 years old】
Lightning: As expected of Mr. Dragon, at the age of 26, he already had such ambition.
Belo Betty: Are the other seas so turbulent? The East Blue is still better, there are not many wars, there are so many wars in the North Blue.
Lindbergh: You have to know that this is not the Great Pirate Era yet, after Roger dies, when the real Great Pirate Era kicks off, that's when the real turmoil and chaos will begin.
Roger: It wasn't me who started the Great Pirate Era, it was all the people who set sail, it was driven by freedom.
【“This isn't something I can do alone, I need partners who share my ideals.”】
【Dragon muttered to himself.】
【Dragon created an organization called the Courageous Army】
【The Courageous Army is not a pirate crew, its purpose is to organize those who see the darkness and flaws of this world, and work together to find a way out for this world】
【Being courageous and strong, resisting the corrupt rule of the World Government and the nobles, this is the guiding principle of the Courageous Army, it is also the predecessor of the Revolutionary Army】
【The Courageous Army is a very small organization, currently there is only Dragon, not even a ship of its own】
Sengoku: Is this the predecessor of the Revolutionary Army? The Courageous Army.
Tsuru: No wonder there was no information about the Revolutionary Army before, its threat was too small, no one would pay attention to such a small organization.
Sengoku and Tsuru couldn't help but feel 感慨.
The Courageous Army, a small organization that started with only Dragon and no ship.
It would grow into an organization that is larger than the Four Emperors pirate crews, a super-large organization that could threaten the rule of the World Government, within a few years.
Roger: I see, the Revolutionary Army already existed at this time, unfortunately, I didn't get to drink with such a man while I was alive, what a pity.
Rayleigh: There will be a chance, Roger, I'm waiting for you to be resurrected.
【Dragon began to follow merchant ships to various seas, every time he arrived in a country or island, he would spread his own ideas】
【In his spare time, he would also take down some vicious pirates to earn some funds for the organization】
【Because his ideas touched upon the interests of the nobles, Dragon was mostly expelled by the nobles, but because of his powerful strength, he was always able to escape unscathed】
【Until one day, Dragon came to the South Blue, this is the location of the Sorbet Kingdom】
【At this moment, the Courageous Army has grown to a certain scale, dozens of people, plus Dragon, the powerful leader, and a ship】
【This day, Dragon, as usual, gave a speech in the street, like people in other countries, after hearing his speech, most people avoided him】
【Only one very tall man, holding a Bible, listened to his speech intently】
【Dragon finished his speech, he was happy to have found a comrade, he smiled and walked over to him, saying】
【“My name is Monkey D. Dragon, what about you?”】
【“Bartholomew Kuma.”】
【Kuma stretched out his gloved hand and gently shook Dragon's hand】
【This unusually tall man, unlike his appearance, is very gentle, like a tree growing quietly, broad, vast, and gentle.】
【Dragon and Kuma hit it off right away, they talked a lot, about the citizens of affiliated countries, about the impact of the Heavenly Tribute on affiliated countries, and about war】
【Until the end, Dragon realized that Kuma was actually the king of his Sorbet Kingdom】
【A truly righteous king, he couldn't bear to see his country's people suffer hunger because of the Heavenly Tribute, his gentle nature also prevented him from using war to seize wealth】
【Until Dragon appeared, he pointed him in the right direction, so Kuma fully supported Dragon's Courageous Army】
【Kuma's support was a great help to Dragon】
【He continued to travel the four seas, giving speeches everywhere, spreading the ideals of the Courageous Army】
【He also entered the New World, and unexpectedly gained an important partner, a being who called himself the "Okama King," his name was Emporio Ivankov】
