Chapter 984: Recruitment Advertisement of the Fairy Guild
Under the holy light, Kira, like a god descended from the earth, attracted everyone's attention.
Regarding his behavior, some were disdainful, some were shocked, and some were confused, but they were all quietly waiting for his next move. A strong man who was powerful enough to rival the Four Emperors played a vital role in the current battlefield.
Finally, when everyone's attention was attracted, Kira began his speech.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen, ladies, and new humans whose genders are not defined! I am the wizard from Fairy Tail, Kira Hopelet!"
"The past 22 years have been extraordinary, 22 years of being ravaged by pirates. Because of the words spoken by the evil 'Pirate King' Gol D. Roger before his death, the lives and work of everyone on the sea have been greatly affected, and their mentality has also changed greatly. To this day, we have experienced countless wars filled with smoke, and the world's pattern is also quietly changing..."
After saying the first two sentences of a speech imitating what he had read in a book, Kira began to let himself go and started pointing fingers at people from various forces. The first person he criticized was the navy.
"Nowadays, the navy is mixed with good and bad people. Many navies in the four seas are extremely corrupt. There are many who abuse their power to oppress the people. Some even collude with pirates. Such behavior is worse than that of pirates!"
"Just now, I even saw quite a few naval deserters on the battlefield. They carried the name of 'justice', but they were cowardly and fled before the battle. Even the captains of the Navy Headquarters were like this. You can imagine what the quality of the navy of the Four Seas Branch is like!!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the navy could no longer hold back.
The top brass is not unaware of the corruption at the grassroots level of the navy and has thought about rectifying the situation. However, the pirates on the Grand Line have become increasingly powerful in recent years, so the number of naval personnel sent down to the four seas is actually seriously insufficient.
In other words, they simply don't have the time and energy to deal with this batch of garbage that tarnishes the name of "justice". They can only turn a blind eye and maintain the image of the navy as much as possible on the surface.
But now this stain has been rudely presented to the whole world, which is undoubtedly a great humiliation for the navy that has always adhered to "justice".
In comparison, dealing with battlefield deserters is much simpler. This phenomenon is not without precedent in the past, and can be dealt with directly according to military law.
After Kira exposed the navy's dirty laundry, he immediately turned his attention to the pirates.
"Since the Great Pirate Era began, pirates have become an unstoppable force. Most of them do not produce anything, and commit all kinds of evil, including murder, looting, and some even sell slaves. There are endless cases of usurping the throne, seizing power, and plotting against the country. Their behavior is so cruel and outrageous that it is outrageous!..."
Listening to the endless abuse of the pirate forces coming from their ears, the navy and pirates below were all confused: "First he scolded the navy, then he scolded the pirates... What the hell is that guy doing?"
"He has offended everyone. Isn't he afraid that the people here will unite and beat him up?"
"It's completely unclear which side he's on, and what he wants to do..."
After pointing out the shortcomings of both the navy and the pirates in front of the whole world, Kira finally showed his true colors and began to pursue his ultimate goal: "In view of the fact that the above two forces have their own shortcomings, and people all over the world have suffered because of them, I have decided to end the Great Pirate Era and let the world usher in a new look!"
When these words were spoken, the whole audience was moved.
End the Great Pirate Era? How do you want to end it? Do you want to find the great treasure?
"I believe many people have heard that the Torrant Sea is now the territory of wizards. We have established a new organization there, the 'Fairy Guild', and I am the first president of the guild."
"The main purpose of establishing the Fairy Guild is to solve the increasingly serious problem of re-employment difficulties for the elderly population on the sea, put an end to the harassment of innocent people by pirates, and curb the oppression of the nobles on the common people! At the same time, it is also to promote the connection of the world and lead everyone to live a happy life with enough food and clothing, the elderly have a care, the children have a care, freedom and equality."
"The Fairy Guild is neither part of the navy nor the pirates. We are independent of any other forces. Anyone who has troubles in life can post a request to the Fairy Guild. No matter how big or small the request is, as long as you can pay enough money, we can help you solve all your problems."
"Moving mountains and filling the sea, calming the wind and making rain, repelling bandits, and punishing evildoers are all small problems for the Fairy Guild. I believe everyone has heard about the seven consecutive days of heavy rain in Alabasta, and has also seen the live broadcast of us defeating two of the Four Emperors, so you can rest assured about the strength of our guild!!"
"Now, as the president of the Fairy Guild, I am officially recruiting talents from all over the world. Whether you are a chef or a shipwright, a bounty hunter or a retired navy officer, as long as you have a skill and are not a sinner, you are welcome to join our guild at any time!"
This unprecedented recruitment advertisement has left everyone confused.
"This guy said so much nonsense just to advertise his own power?"
"A guild independent of the navy and pirates?... That's a nice dream, but with someone like that leading it, the world will soon be in chaos, right?"
In fact, there is no shortage of such forces on the sea that are independent of the World Government and pirates. For example, the Shipping Chamber of Commerce, the News Agency, the Loan Shark Chamber of Commerce, etc. are all organizations of this type. It's just that these organizations themselves are seriously insufficient in strength, and they can't make any waves in front of the World Government or the Four Emperors.
But the current 'Fairy Guild' is obviously different!
The strength of these people is obvious to all. They achieved their fame by stepping on two of the Four Emperors' groups. This is unique in any organization. The "magic" that has been proven not to be a devil fruit but has a similar effect is a huge impact on the current power system of "fruit × domineering × technology".
The pirates were fine, they basically had not read any books and were short-sighted, they could not see the significance of the 'Fairy Guild', in their minds they just thought that it would just be another stronger 'Four Emperors' in the New World, and at most the future 'Pirate King'.
The navy officers could not judge whether this guild was good or bad for a moment. They did not do anything wrong. Instead, they seemed to be doing good things by solving employment problems, fighting pirates and greedy nobles, and complying with the principle of "justice". So what reason did they have to attack them?
But the top leaders of the world government don’t think so!
Listening to the voice coming from the live Den Den Mushi, they immediately realized the negative impact that the 'Fairy Guild' would have on their rule.
From the description, within the influence of the "Fairy Guild", people with special skills can make money by helping others complete commissions; everyone can consume and buy materials from all over the world at will; if you see someone or something you don't like, you can pay thugs to teach them a lesson, and the other party cannot take revenge afterwards...
The most important thing is that Kira has not mentioned paying taxes so far!
Once the common people have a platform to make money, spend, hire thugs, or even rely on powerful people, will they still be willing to hand over the "gold from the sky" to the nobles of the kingdom as they did before?
Absolutely impossible!
Therefore, the World Government is the first one that does not want to see the emergence of such a new force on the ocean.
But what they don’t want to see is still to come!
"Besides, there is one more important point!"
"We have contacted the news network Morgans and have agreed on cooperation! After today, the Fairy Guild will announce the rubbings of the three signpost texts and their translations to the world. In the future, we will also announce the methods of learning ancient characters. Nico Robin, the only orphan of O'Hara, will serve as the teaching teacher."
"If someone comes to us with a copy of some other historical text, we can translate it, but then we'll also make it public."
"In other words, if anyone has the fourth signpost text in his hand right now, he can set out to find the great treasure as early as tomorrow!!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!
Publishing the text of the road sign? Also responsible for teaching and translation? Isn't that equivalent to putting the great secret treasure in front of the world? Neither Roger in the past nor the Four Emperors now are so generous!
No wonder he dared to threaten to end the Great Pirate Era. Is this how he wanted to end it?
