Chapter 345: Building momentum

Chapter 345: Building momentum

The horror of war sometimes does not lie in killing. What really scares people is the series of problems it brings.

Famine, plague, riots and other disasters are all derivatives of war.

At this time, the people of the North Sea are struggling to survive in these disasters.

The battle between the upper-class strong will not care about the life and death of ants.

Although the guys fighting the World Government are the Free Revolutionary Alliance, which is friendly to civilians, the North Sea is too big.

Even if the Free Revolutionary Alliance does not want the war to affect civilians, there is no way that the war has already begun, and they do not have the strength to demarcate the area where the war starts.

This is a life-and-death war.

As the scope of the war gradually spreads to the entire North Sea.

Large-scale killing and war.

This violent chaos is destined to spread from the North Sea to the whole world.

After all, the entire pirate world is composed of four oceans, the Red Earth Continent and the Great Channel.

And now there is a problem in the North Sea, one of the four oceans, even though each ocean is separated by the Red Earth Continent and the Calm Belt.

But the impact brought by the North Sea will still spread to the whole world.

The most obvious place affected by this is the entrance of the North Sea to the Grand Line.

During this period of time, the narrow channel was almost filled with ships.

In addition, people have been traveling through the Calm Belt and Red Earth Continent that separate the North Sea from other oceans in recent days.

The forces and masters hidden in an entire ocean are immeasurable.

And this war between the Free Revolutionary Alliance and the World Government has stirred up all these big crocodiles hidden under the water.

Since the North Sea is no longer suitable for survival, these forces and masters will naturally go to other seas.

But each sea has a fixed force and a fixed ecosystem.

Therefore, with these guys in the North Sea, they gradually flocked to the other three oceans and the Grand Line.

The already chaotic sea has become even more chaotic.

The weak barely survive in troubled times, while the ambitious take advantage of the chaos.

Roy is one of the biggest ambitious people in the current pirate world.

Taking advantage of the chaos, he gradually extended the backhand that was originally hidden in the East China Sea to other oceans.

The war in the North Sea is getting more and more intense.

So the pressure on the East China Sea is rising as the needs of the World Government increase.

Faced with the increasing demand for materials and money from the World Government.

Roy, the Governor of the East China Sea.

While dealing with the needs of the World Government, he began to frequently appear in various countries in the East China Sea to build momentum.

Although most of the upper classes of these countries have been replaced by Roy, what Roy wants is not just victory.

What Roy wants is stability within the area he rules after the face-off.

Therefore, these are inseparable from the support of the grassroots masses, and Roy also wants to use this image to gain the power of those civilian strongmen.

After all, this is the world of One Piece with inconvenient transportation, and it is not certain that there is a master of the level of Green Bull Fujitora hidden in any of the bumps.

Now Roy wants to unite all forces as much as possible before turning against each other.

Perhaps Roy's approach seemed a little too safe to some of his radical subordinates.

But Roy knew that war would cost lives, and sometimes one could easily fall into the gutter if one was not careful.

Again, it is always right to be fully prepared.

Even though some good opportunities may be lost in the process, only by taking steady steps can unnecessary mistakes be reduced.

Now everything in the East China Sea is proceeding according to Roy's plan.

Although the World Government has sent a lot of people to urge Roy openly and secretly in recent days, Roy has the ability of the Memory Fruit under his command.

Therefore, Roy will try his best to use means to block the guys who can be blocked, and for the guys who cannot be blocked, Roy will directly and roughly change their memories to try to make the current situation favorable to himself.

But Roy also knows that this approach is only a stopgap measure.

Because as the whole world falls into riots, the forces that the World Government needs to quell the rebellion will definitely increase greatly.

And in order to feed these forces, the World Government will inevitably squeeze more materials from the rich ocean of the East China Sea.

So Roy now has little time left.

Therefore, while he intensified his propaganda to build momentum for himself, he began to use more and more cruel means to those forces in the East China Sea who did not obey him.

Of course, Roy pushed all these cruel means to the World Government Department.

High taxes.

This is Roy's biggest means to force those countries and forces to submit.

For those countries that can pay taxes, Roy will take the initiative to provoke conflicts between countries and annex them.

For those countries that cannot pay taxes, Roy will directly use the power of the Governor of the East China Sea to openly intervene in the country's internal anti-corruption.

For the latter, Roy's detectives often find out the shocking amount of corruption, and then Roy's approach is very simple and crude.

That is to impose all the misfortunes in those poor countries on those who are unwilling to cooperate.

The essence of this world is the law of the jungle.

In this dark and turbulent sea, where are the good people?

Therefore, with all kinds of means used together, Roy's momentum in the entire East China Sea gradually became huge.

If this was before the war on the top, Roy's way of increasing momentum would undoubtedly be a dead end.

But now the World Government has been firmly held back by the Free Revolutionary Alliance and the sea emperors on the Grand Line.

The constant major events on the sea have caused headaches for the World Government and the Navy.

Therefore, Roy, who is far away in the East China Sea, was directly suppressed by the various major events.

After all, now in the entire pirate world, the only oceans that can still steadily supply materials and money to the World Government are the East China Sea, the West China Sea and the South China Sea.

Therefore, in this case, for the World Government and the Navy, maintaining the stability of the East China Sea is the most important thing.

Of course, there are also three major premises here.

One is the forces related to Roy, who are constantly lobbying within the World Government.

One is that all the guys who oppose Roy will die unexpectedly or be transformed by the memory fruit.

Of course, the last reason is that compared with the governors of other oceans, Roy is undoubtedly outstanding.

Therefore, under various factors, Roy has now become the uncrowned king of the entire East China Sea.

At this time, in various areas controlled by Roy in the East China Sea, a large number of military factories are being built one by one.

At the same time, all places controlled by Roy are now carrying out a massive conscription and training campaign.
