Stunned!
Allen's remarks about revolution, or rather its definition, instantly gave the group of the Revolutionary Army's senior executives present a strong shock that could not be described in words.
Especially Monkey D. Long, whose eyes sparkled with excitement and excitement.
You must know that the current Revolutionary Army is just a group of rebels who are seriously dissatisfied with Celestial Dragons and World Government. They do not even have specific ideas and action programs. They are still limited to doing things such as waiting for opportunities to overthrow Decay's affiliated countries, liberate slaves, and develop base areas.
They don't even know how to overthrow the powerful World Government, let alone what kind of new regime they will establish after overthrowing the rule of Celestial Dragons.
According to the standards of the earth, this can only be regarded as an uprising at best, which is far from a revolution.
Even if he succeeds by luck in the end, it will just be a cliché ending where a dragon slayer becomes Arlong.
After a brief silence, Long took the lead to break the silence and asked in a slightly lower voice, "So in your opinion, what exactly is our revolution going to do?"
"It's very simple! First of all, confirm one thing, that is the class that your revolution represents." Allen gave the answer straightforwardly.
"Class?"
It was obviously the first time for Long to hear this extremely unfamiliar word, and he frowned subconsciously.
"Yes! You can understand it as an interest group. That is, whether you Revolutionary Army are more inclined to establish a regime that is beneficial to the poorest people at the bottom, or to establish a regime that is beneficial to the merchant class with huge wealth, or to change everything and just overthrow the rule of Celestial Dragons, and then copy their system to become the new Celestial Dragons."
When saying these words, Allen glanced at every Revolutionary Army senior executive present with meaningful eyes.
Everyone has selfish motives.
He now wants to know how many of these Braves here who dare to stand up and try to overthrow World Government can stick to their simple and lofty ideals until the end without being corrupted by power, wealth and beauty.
Faced with this question that went straight to the core, Long's face suddenly became solemn.
Because the founder and supreme leader of the Revolutionary Army has realized that this will be an important choice that determines where Revolutionary Army will go in the future.
In contrast, Betty, who failed to understand the deeper meaning, could not help but ask, "Why must there be a tendency? Isn't it good for everyone to live together peacefully and happily?"
"Everyone lives together peacefully and happily? Hahahahaha! Oh my god! If Revolutionary Army's cadres are of your level, then I'm afraid it will be impossible to overthrow Celestial Dragons's rule in this lifetime. Remember, because resources are limited, there must be places where there are people. Of course there will be fights. If you want to protect the interests of the common people, you will inevitably offend the interests of the merchants and the nobles. In the same way, if you want to protect the interests of the merchants, you will inevitably offend the other two interest groups.
Allen laughed and taught the other party a lesson.
Especially One Piece World is still in the semi-feudal era, and power is still in the hands of the nobles.
So now Revolutionary Army has two options, one is to unite with the wealthy business class but without rights and social status to launch a capitalist revolution, and the other is to unite with civilians and slaves who cannot survive to launch a proletarian revolution.
The advantage of the former is that a large amount of financial assistance can be obtained in a short period of time, but the disadvantage is that businessmen will definitely not do loss-making business and will naturally make various demands.
The advantage of the latter is that the foundation is solid, and civilians and slaves who cannot survive have no choice at all. Only by joining Revolutionary Army to overthrow the rule of the nobles can they gain the power to survive, but the disadvantage is that they lack everything, and they have to work hard just to feed these mouths.
Long had started traveling around the world more than ten years ago, so he knew very well that every word the other party said was true.
After repeated hesitation and thinking, he made a very surprising decision, raised his head and asked with a smile, "Are you interested in joining Revolutionary Army to lead us to complete this great cause?"
"Sorry, not interested." Allen flatly refused.
"Huh? Why? You obviously..."
Before Long could finish his words, Allen interrupted impatiently, "Although I know what revolution is better than you, I am not interested in joining it. In fact, I don't care what you will turn this world into. I just want to do two things. One is to collect Devil Fruit, and the other is to kill all those disgusting Celestial Dragons."
"Okay, I understand. In that case, let's go back to the original topic and talk about cooperation and alliance."
After realizing that Allen was not the same person as him, Long immediately gave up the idea he had just had.
Soon, the two sides reached an agreement on the purchase of weapons, ships and the establishment of strongholds.
In addition, Revolutionary Army also humbly asked Allen for a lot of theoretical knowledge about revolution, and decided to go to Alabasta to get in touch with the Resistance Army there, and strive to turn this ancient Kingdom, which has the largest population and largest area in the first half of Grand Line, into its own base.
As for the royal family Nefertari Family, Long adopted Allen's suggestion and planned to put him under house arrest first and continue to be the supreme ruler on the surface to paralyze World Government to buy himself more time to prepare.
After they left on the ship with the first batch of free aid weapons, Kalifa immediately and cautiously tried. "BOSS, why didn't you accept Long's invitation just now? You know that as long as you nodded just now, you can immediately become the supreme leader of the Revolutionary Army."
Allen smiled and shook his head, "Because that kind of heavy responsibility is not what I want, and it is also not something that an outsider like me should bear. By the way, Crocodile has not caused any trouble for our ships transporting refugees in recent times, right?"
"No! Everything is going very smoothly. So far, we have transported back almost 16,000 people from Alabasta, and they have all been settled properly. According to your instructions, all craftsmen have been sent to Metal Smelting Workshop after receiving training." Kalifa reported a series of data instantly.
As one of the right-hand men who assist Allen in handling complex government affairs, she is now almost one of the two people in Utopia who holds the most secrets.
And the other one is naturally Nicole Robin.
The former is mainly responsible for internal affairs and production, while the latter is responsible for screening management talents and recruiting an elite army.
Currently, this army belonging to Utopia rather than Demon Pirates has nearly two thousand people, and each of them has been awarded the training methods of Life Energy, Six Powers and Haki.
Thanks to Charlotte Linlin, the original Whole Cake Island territory has all the races in the world except Giants and dragons.
Coupled with the continuous mixing of blood, there are many young people with unlimited potential among the new generation.
Now, these young people with great potential have been recruited after strict screening and have become a real ace in the hands of Allen.
Those who perform well among them will also receive rewards such as Devil Fruit, magic potions, weapons and equipment, etc., which ensures both morale and loyalty.
