The Black Duke of the Pirate

Chapter 36 036. Overthrowing the Rule of "God"
In March 1509 of the Haiyuan calendar, the second day after the civilian riots were quelled, the sky was clear and the sea was blue, and the sky was clear and boundless at a glance.

It took less than a week from the planning of the riot to the end, but the entire Polkaya Kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes from the top to the nobles and down to the common people. Of course, these changes are only temporary superficial phenomena.

The Heavenly Gold for common people is exempted, but as a reborn person, according to the laws of human history, if the dynasty cannot be completely changed, perhaps within a year, the collection of Heavenly Gold will come back, and it may become even more serious by then. .

Whether it is Prince Clovis or Minister of Finance Ketok, as long as either party completely controls the country, it will re-collect the heavenly gold, and will take greater exploitation of civilians, because this is the system of most kingdoms in the pirate world.

After all, it is impossible to break away from the limitations of the times. If you want to fundamentally reform, you must first overthrow the system established by the "God".

Seaside tavern.

Looking at Drago in front of him with extremely amazed eyes, Li Xiao couldn't help laughing. Even as a revolutionary, Drago still didn't understand what Li Xiao said.

"Fundamental reform?" Drago looked at the empty wine glass in front of him, poured a glass for Li Xiao, and asked in a deep voice, "Can you tell me in detail?"

Where should I start, this is really a trouble for me, those social and civilized systems of the 21st century, even Li Xiao can't figure it out, let alone explain it to him in detail.

"Overthrow the existing system, take the law as the foundation of the country, and establish a series of new institutional civilization systems that are standardized, procedural, and ruled by law."

"The so-called rule of law is legal governance that embodies the will of the common people and the laws of social development, rather than advocating the governance of the country according to individual will. interference, obstruction or destruction.”

"Can't understand?"

Drago nodded and drank another glass of wine.

Well, I still don’t understand. What he was talking about was the famous basic strategy of ruling the country by law in his previous life. He also knew in his heart that this is a slavery society. From the slavery society to the modern society civilization in the 21st century, it is basically not It's possible, but seeing that Drago is so interested, it's hard to guard against it.

"Let me give you an example." Li Xiao continued: "For example, we have established a legal system, one of which is that common people and nobles are equal. The state power is led by nobles, but power belongs to common people and is supervised by common people."

"Wait." Drago interrupted him suddenly, "You said that the common people and the nobles are equal, which aspect specifically?"

Li Xiao shook his head and smiled, "It's not specific, but all aspects. The king's crime is the same as that of the common people!"

"This..." Drago was speechless in surprise. Although he never thought that the king was more noble than the common people, it was the first time he heard such an incredible statement.

"Forget it, it's meaningless to say these things, let's drink." Li Xiao laughed, picked up the glass and drank it down.

"No, maybe there will be such a day." The harmony, freedom, equality, and a world full of dreams that Drago has been building in his heart, maybe the real social form is not necessarily what the young people in front of him said, so he again After a moment of silence, he asked in surprise, "You've seen all of these...?"

"I have seen."

Drago paused, showing an incredulous expression. Seeing Drago's disbelieving eyes, Li Xiao pointed to his head and smiled, "In a dream."

It is only now that Dorag truly understands that the life goals he and his companions set in the past hope that revolutionaries can build a world full of harmony, freedom, equality, and dreams. Isn't that world exactly what the young people in front of them said?
He just wanted to continue asking, but he was stunned again when he heard the next words.

"That is the world of dreams, it will never be possible here!" Li Xiao said firmly, the will of the common people is the will of the country, but the will of the country is not necessarily the will of the common people. It will never be possible to have a civilized system in the 21st century, because power is the embodiment of the will of the common people. In this world, masters at the general level are completely above all rules and systems. If everyone cannot be equal, what is the rule of law?
The more Dorag listened, the more amazed he became, and the more he listened, the more chaotic his thinking became. He didn't know what to say for a while, so he heard Li Xiao sigh and said: "Mr. Dorag, I just said these words casually. Don't go into it, it won't benefit you and the revolutionary army's future at all, just treat it like I'm talking nonsense after drinking."

"You know everything." Drago glanced at him, as if he really had the ability to see everything.

"Haha." Lixiao laughed, and put an old newspaper in front of Dorage, "Look, if I still can't figure it out, I'm a fool. "

The World Economic News listed Monkey D. Dorag’s criminal history, as well as a blurry portrait. The portrait only has a back view, and the navy blue cloak is drawn with a black pen. He is tall and tall. Although there is no front profile, except for Who else would there be in Drago.

"Can you tell me why you refused?" Dorag said suddenly.

Reason for refusing to join them?
Li Xiao nodded and said, "It's been five years since I came to Polkaya. In the past five years, I have been paying attention to the situation in the world and the current situation in Polkaya."

Drago continued to drink, waiting for him to continue.

"Although I didn't do anything substantively in Polkaya for five years, I have a clear understanding of the situation and context of the entire kingdom!"

"So overthrowing Polkaya's regime is the most urgent thing I need to do in the past three years."

Overthrowing Polkaya’s regime, Dorag murmured, looking at the ice-blue broken flowers in the depths of Lixiao’s eyes that dazzled like light, the indescribable admiration in his heart, people in the world only know how to say, but don’t know how to do it, Lixiao To be able to start with the most trivial and inconspicuous things in Polkaya and slowly affect the will of the common people in the entire kingdom, this has to be said to be an attitude of doing great things.

"The position of Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army is still vacant. You are the perfect candidate for this position that I have been looking for over the years." Drago finally said with a breath.

Li Xiao was taken aback for a moment, but in order to woo him to join, Drago actually promised himself the position of Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army. This shows how much Drago attaches importance to his joining.

"The ambition of the Revolutionary Army is very good, and to some extent coincides with the future I plan."

Drago's hopeful eyes seemed to brighten up, but he was slightly disappointed when he heard Lixiao's next words.

"But I still can't join the Revolutionary Army." Li Xiao said in a deep voice, "Although I won't join the Revolutionary Army, maybe we can cooperate in the future."

"Cooperation?" Seeing his refusal, Dorag was only a little regretful, and not too disappointed. Seeing the possibility of future cooperation he said, he asked, "What kind of cooperation specifically?"

"Your revolutionary army should have a great demand for materials and weapons."

"We can provide you with these in the future, in large quantities!" Li Xiao said with a smile.

These are exactly what the revolutionary army urgently needs at present and in the future. The revolution requires the support of a large amount of materials and weapons, and more Baileys are needed.

"What do you want?" Drago looked at.

"I need a natural-type devil fruit!" Lixiao's current team has too few people and is too weak. A powerful devil fruit is needed to lay the foundation for the team's strength.

With the devil fruit of the natural type, at least the chances of walking sideways in the North Sea are much higher. This is a very important move for his plan to dominate the North Sea in the future.
