Raise your glass and ignite the world of One Piece

With all his emotions turned on, Wayne didn't take much effort to find the figure wearing a dark green hooded coat.

The fierce domineering energy seems to burn the world, and the body shape seems to be invisible and has no place to focus.

The world government's wanted criminal, "revolutionary" Drago, known as "the most vicious criminal in the world"!

"You did find something unusual, Wayne."

The aura around Dorag disappeared, and he slowly turned around, looking at Wayne who stopped with his sharp eyes under the hood.

"'Dragon Slayer'... is it better to call you that?"

"Just call me by name."

Wayne shrugged indifferently:

"By attracting my attention in such a big way, it seems that Mr. Dorag, you have determined that this place is absolutely safe?"

"Yes, it's just a habit."

This is a deserted seaside cliff. Dorag took off his hood, revealing his messy hair and the eye-catching slipper marks on his face:

"You have been famous for a long time, and today I see you in person...

"I didn't expect that Marshal of the Warring States Period would also make mistakes."

Dolag should be less than 50 years old now. He has an angular face without eyebrows and a fierce look in his eyes...

He really doesn't look like a good person at all.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period is busy with everything, and there are a lot of things that he doesn't notice. He's not as bad as me."

Wayne smiled. Only when he faced Dorag in person could he feel his unparalleled courage.

"In terms of momentum alone, you are more high-spirited, confident, and determined than Marshal of the Warring States Period."

"...Thank you for the compliment."

Dorag was slightly surprised, but combined with Wayne's previous deeds and Lindbergh's report, he smiled.

"Sure enough, Wayne, you should be our compatriot."

"Uh, so direct?"

Wayne grinned. Dorag was too straightforward:

"Strictly speaking, my current reward should have been cancelled. After all, I am already 'dead'..."

"So I am an ordinary civilian now, Mr. Dorag, are you going to turn me into a wanted criminal again?"

"Hahaha……"

Dorag didn't care about Wayne's teasing.

"Wayne, the question you asked Lindbergh last time makes me believe that you have a deep understanding of this world."

He came today obviously not just to meet Wayne:

"Can a bottom-up 'revolution' really succeed without power?

"This question cannot be asked without a comprehensive consideration of the current world situation and nature."

Dorag looked at the silent Wayne, and simply sat cross-legged on the ground, folded his arms, and looked at him with a probing expression:

"Another question is, with just a dozen years of ideological awareness, how can we fight against an 800-year-old world government?

"This is a direction that would never be thought of without a 'revolutionary' ideological consciousness!"

His sharp eyes stared at the still silent Wayne:

"Even this is not something you can think clearly about less than a year after you defected from the navy...

"So I think that you will kill the Tianlong people brazenly. What happened that day was just a trigger——

"Wayne, when did you start wanting to change the world?"

"Well...it's been a while."

Wayne finally stopped being silent.

He smiled and sat across from Dolag. He hadn't felt this kind of "long conversation" atmosphere for a long time.

"As expected of Mr. Dorag, so far, I have not told anyone my true thoughts——

“I joined the Navy initially to survive.

“After learning about some of the World Government’s actions, I came up with the idea of ​​climbing to a high position and changing the navy.

"If the most powerful violent organization in the world could be freed from the control of the Celestial Dragons, it would be much easier to change the world, right?"

Dorag looked serious.

"Is this your solution to the first question, 'force'?

"That's when you had this realization?"

"Ah, whether you want to protect or change, without power, you can't do anything——

"This is probably a truth that all idealistic people in the Navy Headquarters understand."

Wayne's narrative was unhurried and Dorag nodded slowly, obviously agreeing with this point of view.

"Well, the Navy is a huge organization with countless people with various ideas——

"So even though it's affiliated with the World Government, it's not impossible, right?"

Wayne stretched out his right hand, made a fist, and then slowly released it:

"But unfortunately, I am not a genius like a 'monster'.

"In terms of strength, although I have exceeded the same period by a lot, I can already see the upper limit——

“At most, I can reach Teacher Zefa’s level, and at most I have more physical strength than him——

"But you also know what Teacher Zefa went through in the past two years, right?"

"...He was attacked by an esper pirate and had his right wrist cut off."

Dorag took a deep breath:

"So, you found the right Devil Fruit and thought you could break the constraints of strength, so you decided to defect from the navy?"

"That's one thing."

Wayne nodded slightly, his smile unchanged:

“It turns out that it at least allowed me to escape from the general’s hands without anyone noticing.

"And using this 'dead' time, I really developed my abilities, and I realized that this is indeed incredible."

"But shouldn't you feel comfortable developing capabilities in the Navy, pushing the limits, and changing the Navy according to your original ideas?"

Dorag looked strange.

Couldn't this guy accidentally kill the Celestial Dragon when he was drunk?

"Mr. Dorag, not even powerful men with reputations and abilities like 'Buddha's Warring States' and 'Hero Garp' can change the navy..."

"The Navy, like the World Government, has existed for 800 years and is no longer just an institution of violence."

Wayne sighed helplessly:

"Even if it reaches or even exceeds the strength of generals and marshals, without special talents that would make the world government fearful, it would be too difficult to change the navy."

Admiral and marshal are, to put it bluntly, a position under the World Government.

Even if your face is damaged at a critical moment, the World Government can take away this identity with just one order!

And given the nature of the navy, even if a dog sits in the position of marshal, it is still true!

Even if there is dissatisfaction, the subordinates can obey orders in both positive and negative ways, but they must not openly disobey orders!

"Unless this marshal has the personal charm that makes the navy officers convinced and loyal to follow him to death.

"At the same time, the World Government must be put on the defensive and not dare to directly find reasons to remove him from office just because of this——

"I don't think I can do it relying on the ability of the wine fruit."

Wayne raised his chin and looked at the sea in the distance:

"So, my thinking changed at that time -

"Since top-down doesn't work, then maybe bottom-up can do it?"

"bottom up……"

Dorag's eyes flashed. Isn't this what their revolutionary army is doing?

"So how did you think about the first question?"

"In this world, top power is the first element to maintain status."

Wayne slowly withdrew his gaze and his expression became extremely serious:

"If the world government has been standing for 800 years without falling, it must meet this condition——

"Maybe it's a human being, maybe it's a 'weapon' that can destroy the world, maybe it's both -

"But it's definitely not relying on powerful people like the Navy Headquarters and the Navy Admiral and Marshal."

He said firmly:

"Because they come from the people, they are always 'outsiders' to the World Government and the Celestial Dragons!

"You can act as a facade, but you can't be absolutely trusted!"

"..."

Dorag opened his eyes wide.

He couldn't believe that Wayne had thought to this extent.

"So, the true 'trump card' of the world government, hidden in the dark, and its upper limit of power is the key to determining whether the 'revolution' can succeed!"

The blood-red rippled double eyes flashed in Wayne's mind. The "King of the World" who ordered the Five Old Stars to kneel down and obey orders on the "Throne of the Void" did not even know the existence of Dorag.

"Are you saying that there may be a power behind the world government that can eliminate all variables?"

Dorag felt that his heart was beating harder than ever.

Although he immediately questioned the lack of precise intelligence support for Wayne's inference.

But as the leader of the revolutionary army, he had an instinctive feeling——

Wayne is right!

But how is this possible!

The admiral of the Navy Headquarters is at the same level as the pirate "Emperor", and even has a slightly higher combat power. It is basically the ceiling of combat power recognized by the world today.

Even Rocks, who once wanted to become the "King of the World", couldn't resist the killing blows of two people with this level of power.

"A force that is so powerful that it is hopelessly strong will completely destroy people's will to resist."

Wayne's faint words woke up Dorag.

“But if the world government still has something to fear, it means that even if this power exists, it has many limitations.

“And where there are limitations, there are opportunities!”
