Chapter 452

When Garp and Shanks were silent, the Dragon, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.

"I've been wanting to meet you for a long time, Mr. Yeruashi..."

The leader of the Revolutionary Army took a sip of wine and politely addressed Yeruashi.

Yeruashi looked at him with a smile: "You are the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon."

"Yes."

The Dragon looked at Yeruashi intently and said seriously: "You should understand perfectly well what the state of things in the world is right now, Mr. Yeruashi. A corrupt and decaying World Government dominates the common people, and the Revolutionary Army hopes to overthrow it in order to lead this world to freedom...we would really like your help on this difficult path."

Now the Revolutionary Army is still at the stage of spreading ideas in the world, but if they manage to get the help of Yeruashi, then the real overthrow of the World Government may be just around the corner.

There are many strong people on the expanses of the sea, but none of them can compare with a Traveler who can single-handedly destroy the Holy Land of Marijoa and instill fear in the hearts of the Heavenly Dragons.

Besides.

Strong people usually have no less strong ambitions.

They want to dominate the world, not liberate it.

Belous is clearly different, but he is not interested in something like the overthrow of the World Government.

The strongest Man in the World, like the Pirate King Golden Roger, longs for freedom only for himself and his comrades.

Dragon didn't know the Red-Haired Man's intentions and ideas, so he wanted to talk to him during this chance meeting in East Blue, but compared to Shanks, Yeruashi was of course much more important.

The fact that Yeruashi destroyed the Holy Land of Marijoa, simultaneously killing many Heavenly Dragons, clearly indicates that he is also dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in the world, so the Dragon could not miss a good opportunity to get such a strong supporter.

"Unfortunately..."

Yeruashi shook his head and said calmly: "I don't intend to support your revolution."

The Dragon was stunned when he received a completely negative answer, but still refused to give up: "The Revolutionary Army does not intend to plunge the world into an era of chaos and ruin, we seek to overthrow only the Heavenly Dragons who command the World Government. Don't you, as a person who hates Heavenly Dragons, agree with this?"

Yeruashi said matter-of-factly, " I really don't like the Heavenly Dragons, but they have already experienced pain, and what is much more important...Can you guarantee that the liberated and renewed World Government will not be distorted by the power and will not give birth to new Heavenly Dragons?"

"This is..."

The Dragon was perplexed.

He could guarantee that he would not do something like this, and he was also sure that his faithful followers were striving for true freedom, but no one can guarantee that in the future, the new World Government will not begin to decompose like the current one.

"The state will not begin to decompose only in one case...if he is overthrown in time."

Yeruashi shook the cup, creating a faint ripple on the surface of the wine: "Even the most stable and free state cannot remain unchanged for thousands of years, so the transition from strength to decay is an inevitable process."

"I have no desire to interfere in this process. Do you seek to overthrow the Heavenly Dragons and create a new World Government? Then try it! If you succeed, then it means that it is time for changes in this world."

Garp and Shanks were lost in thought when they heard Yeruashi's words.

In their opinion, normal people definitely do not have such thoughts and ideas.

Yeruashi's overwhelming power, combined with his ideas that transcended the world and time, really created an aura of divinity and detachment around him, despite the denial of Yeruashi himself.

"...I understand you."

Dragon sighed and nodded to Yeruashi, after a few seconds of silence.

Yeruashi smiled, " I will certainly not stand on the side of the World Government, so the Revolutionary Army can continue to move towards its goal, but I will sometimes deal with bastards who step over the edge, like the Golden Lion."

Shanks sighed: "You killed the Golden Lion..."

He also heard the news of the death of the Golden Lion.

In the past, the Golden Lion managed to suppress even the Golden Roger.

There probably wouldn't have been a Pirate King if it hadn't been for that storm in Edd Vo.

At the most critical moment, the sea itself sided with Roger, allowing him to defeat the Golden Lion, so that later Roger's Pirates conquered the Grand Line.

"Yes."

Yeruashi calmly replied while taking a sip of wine.

The wine used by Shanks to treat Garp and Dragon, of course, was not bought at the Makino bar, but specially prepared for such an occasion, and was considered high-class even by the standards of the Vano Country.

Dragon and Garp also drank from the bowls, enjoying Shanks ' wine.

Just as the three of them drank from the cups and the Dragon opened his mouth to evaluate Shanks ' wine, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and turned his head sharply, looking in a certain direction.

Garp and Shanks also looked there.

Only Yeruashi smiled and turned his head belatedly, as if anticipating what was happening.

Just as Yeruashi turned his head, the bandit Higuma, dressed in a shabby brown cloak, appeared in that direction.

Higuma looked around angrily, carrying a child of about seven or eight years old in his hand: "Hey! Where are the relatives of this little bastard?! Come here, quickly!!!"

Little Luffy struggled with all his might, but he could not escape from the strong grip of the bandit.

Garp, Dragon, and Shanks were momentarily stunned to see this scene.

Shanks stood up and smiled at Higuma, reacting faster than the others: "Excuse me, let's talk calmly...What happened to Luffy?"

"Are you his relative?!"

Higuma walked up to Shanks and coldly said, throwing Luffy on the ground in front of him, " That little bastard spilled juice on my cloak! How are you going to report to me? Eh?!"

Shanks said with a kind smile, picking Luffy up from the ground: "I apologize, Luffy must have done it accidentally, just forgive him, because it's just a little reb..."

Boom!!

There was the sound of breaking glass.

Higuma smashed the bottle of wine he was holding in his hand on Shanks ' head.

Shanks ' clothes were covered with wine, and a lot of splashes and glass fragments flew to the sides.

Silence.

Ivankov suddenly turned pale and opened his mouth, intending to remind Higuma what kind of person was standing in front of him.

However, one of the Representatives of the New World did not become enraged, but only laughed loudly, contrary to the expectations of others: "Yes-ha-ha-ha, now I am also doused with wine, so we are even."

Higuma was silent for a while, and then he grinned maliciously, pointing at his head with his hand: "Even? Don't talk nonsense, you idiot! Who are you, and who am I! My head is worth 8 million belli!!"

As he spoke, he pulled out his gun.

The mountain bandits following Higuma raised a variety of firearms and swords, pointing them at Shanks, Garp, Dragon and Yeruashi.

Ivankov, Beckman, Yasopp and the others, who were standing on the sidelines, simply did not know what to say, looking at this too ridiculous scene.

"Hey you, immediately give me one million and not a bell less if you want to save your miserable lives, otherwise...I will take off your heads and that little bastard's head!"

"Now bring me a belly, run!"

Higuma pointed the gun at Shanks and shouted loudly, looking at Garp, Dragon and Yeruashi, who were sitting in a clearing nearby.

Dragon:"..."

Garp: "..."

Shanks: "..."

Robin, who was standing nearby, slammed her fist into her palm, realizing who Yeruashi meant by "the king of bandits" and why he called him that.

Dare to threaten with a gun the Leader of the Revolutionary Army, the Hero of the Patrol and two Friends...there is not a second such person in the whole world.

He really deserves the title of the king of bandits.

Yeruashi threw the empty bowl on the ground and slowly stood up, and then smiled at Garp, completely ignoring Higuma and his mountain bandits: "I'm not going to participate, because this is the work of the Marine Patrol, I'll see you later."

As he spoke, Yeruashi calmly took a step in Robin's direction.

Higuma was stunned at first, completely not expecting that someone would dare to completely ignore him, and then he became enraged.

"Hey! Bastard..."

Higuma pointed the barrel of the gun at Yeruashi.

But the next moment, the bandit interrupted his fiery tirade, because he noticed a lookout running up to the clearing, holding a snow-white cloak of a Marine Patrol officer in his hands, and politely handed it to Garp.

«...»

Garp slowly stood up and put on the cloak of the Vice Admiral of the Sea Patrol, looking gloomily at Higuma and the other bandits opposite.
