Jonathan: Why do I feel such a sense of awe watching this?
Smoker: A group of people who were nothing but a pile of mud just half a year ago, a bunch of trash from the garbage dump, led out by that boy, and in such a short time, they easily overthrew a kingdom.
Lindbergh: A new era has arrived, the rotten nobility will be overthrown completely.
Kaido: I take back what I said before, their army is truly remarkable, to have such a level of combat capability in such a short time.
Roger: To be honest, I’d rather see that flag planted on the very summit of Mary Geoise.
Rocks: Roger, you’re a bastard, but I have to agree with you on this. Just thinking about this happening in Mary Geoise gets me excited.
Sengoku: Pirates, spare yourselves the fantasies. You’re a bunch of scum who disrupt world order. You really think the Revolutionary Army is on your side? Based on Roja’s personality, pirates will be on his list of things to clean up too.
Cobra: Despite being royalty myself, I must admit that seeing this, I feel a genuine sense of admiration.
At this moment, many in the chatroom felt a thrill of excitement.
After watching for so long, even with the fast-forward, they had seen Roja slowly transform Uncertain Destination Station into what it was now, and then overturn the royal family.
Honestly, this kind of plot would likely hit the sweet spot for most people in the world, excluding the nobility, of course.
How many nobles are there in the world?
The commoners are the mainstream.
How many good nobles are there? A rare sight indeed.
Let alone the heavy burden of the Heavenly Tribute System. Aside from the truly prosperous countries like the East Blue, the commoners in most countries are very poor.
As for those in the chaotic seas, where wars erupt daily, the lives of their commoners don't need explaining.
The aversion to nobility is something that can be found in the vast majority of people on this great sea.
Whether you are a commoner, a pirate, a marine, a Revolutionary, or a bounty hunter.
As long as you are not a noble, mentioning them will almost always evoke disgust.
Beyond that, the fact that a group of people united to overthrow the nobility perfectly validates many of the things Roja said before.
The people are the creators of history.
At this moment, countless commoners, slaves, and those living in misery around the world watched the scene unfold on the screen, and something they hadn't felt before emerged in their eyes.
It's called resistance.
One could say, at this very moment.
When the flag of the Goah Kingdom's royal power was kicked down by a Revolutionary soldier who once lived in a garbage dump.
The impact it had on the oppressed people of the world was far greater than Roger’s execution at the end of his life.
Roger's final words inspired those who already had a rebellious heart to set sail.
But the scene of Uncertain Destination Station overthrowing the Goah Kingdom in just half a year planted a seed in the hearts of those who were oppressed but lacked the will to fight due to various reasons.
And compared to the former, the number of the latter was far greater.
【After taking over the royal capital, the Revolutionary Army didn't take long to familiarize themselves with the administrative system here.】
【To be honest, the Goah Kingdom is pathetically small. Strictly speaking, it cannot even be considered a kingdom.】
【It's just a large royal capital, plus a few dozen small villages outside the Colber Mountains.】
【And for the villages outside the Colber Mountains, the higher-ups of the royal capital nobility essentially left them alone. Aside from collecting taxes, they basically didn't interfere.】
【As for the royal capital itself, it has a very simple noble management system.】
【The nobles living in the high town and the royal family in the palace control all the big and small powers in the royal capital.】
【After Roja took over, he only did three things: First, he demolished the walls of the high town and the palace.】
【Second, he abolished the unreasonable taxes used to exploit and indulge the nobility.】
【Third, he executed the guilty members of the royal family and the nobility.】
【These three things were executed quickly because Roja had already completed his investigation of the Goah Kingdom several months ago and had spent the subsequent months refining his investigation of the high town and the palace sections.】
【The walls separating the nobles from the commoners have been demolished, and Roja is even planning to demolish this high ground.】
【According to the Goah Kingdom's history found in the investigation, this high ground was built by the Goah royal family a hundred years ago to display their power, using mountain rocks excavated from the Colber Mountains.】
【They literally built a small mountain-like high ground in the royal capital to separate the nobility from the commoners.】
【On the third day after capturing the palace, the guilty members of the royal family and the nobility were dragged to the port square in the central street for execution.】
【Many citizens went to the port square to watch the execution, and no one felt any regret for the nobility who were being put to death.】
【The royal capital of the Goah Kingdom is a typical isolated society. A strict hierarchy system, from the palace to the high town, to the central street, to the outlying towns, and finally to Uncertain Destination Station.】
【How could there be any sympathy for the top exploiters, the royal family and nobility, from the exploited classes below?】
【Not to mention, the Goah royal family, who perfectly implemented the isolated society, was basically rotten to the core. In all the years since, only Sabo emerged from the countless talents.】
【As a Revolutionary soldier read out their respective crimes, one by one, the nobles, both familiar and unfamiliar to the public, were executed by firing squad.】
【With each gunshot, some of the ideological shackles that the nobility had been instilling in the minds of the people for so long were broken.】
【This is only the beginning. Next, the Revolutionary Army will use the original members and cadres of the Station as a foundation to start spreading proletarian ideology to every corner of the Goah Kingdom.】
【However, this is a long-term process, and this work can only be left to Gomon and the others.】
【When he saw the nobles falling one by one, Roja knew he could leave with peace of mind.】
【That night, after the execution of the nobles, in a cleared-out noble's room in the high town.】
【“Everyone, I’m relieved. Our revolution has achieved a major stage victory. The Goah Kingdom has been liberated by us,” Roja smiled at all the Revolutionary Army cadres present.】
【“But, remember, this is only a stage victory. The biggest enemy of the revolution is the Celestial Dragons who control the World Government. The Goah nobility is just the first step.”】
【“Don’t worry, Roja-san,” Gomon and the others shouted.】
【These past few days, they felt like they were living in a dream. The nobles of the Goah Kingdom were simply eliminated.】
【“Good.” Roja looked at the cadres he had personally trained, his smile warm, with a slight hint of reluctance. “You’ve done a great job on this mission.”】
【“You have proven that even without me and Izo, you can all stand on your own two feet.”】
【“Izo and I can leave with peace of mind now. From now on, the revolutionary cause in the East Blue will be in your hands.”】
