287 Prerequisites for Cooperation
Feeling the movement of the breeze around him, Li Yan hurried forward on moon steps, following the guidance.
Soon, we arrived at a forest on the west side of the island.
At this moment, Li Yan saw for the first time Dorag, who was called the most dangerous criminal in the world by Mary Joa.
"Dolag, once the most dazzling star in the navy, is now the most dangerous criminal!"
"So, is this why you came to me to talk about it?"
"Of course not. Just like what I said to Mr. Koshiro, I am looking for you to cooperate. Of course, there are preconditions for this cooperation!"
"What is cooperation? What are the prerequisites?"
As soon as the two met, they even skipped the process of saying hello and introducing themselves.
They are people who like to be direct, and don't want to waste unnecessary time fixing up the nonsense, so they get to the point immediately.
"I can provide the Revolutionary Army with firearms that are more advanced than the Corona Type 18, and even other equipment that Mary Joa doesn't know about yet!"
"If we cooperate well, I can even provide Devil Fruit in large quantities. Don't worry, it's not artificial like Doflamingo!"
Li Yan was tantamount to throwing out Wang Zha right from the start.
What does advanced weapons and equipment represent?
It means that the grassroots combat effectiveness of the revolutionary army can be quickly and significantly improved.
So what does a large number of Devil Fruits mean?
It represents a substantial expansion of the middle-level combat power, even...
If there are powerful fruits, it can also allow the revolutionary army to cultivate more high-end forces.
Hearing this, even Dorag was a little shocked.
You know, the most powerful firearm recognized in the world today is the Corona 18.
Although the Navy has not leaked it to the outside world, this Corona Type 18 was developed by the East China Sea Navy.
but...
Anyone with a little bit of brains can guess a thing or two.
After all, if it weren't for Li Yan's research and development, that headquarters would not have completed the overall change of equipment, but the East China Sea Navy would have been the first to complete the change?
A little more...
Aren’t the three characters “Corona” in the Corona Eighteen Form the same as the Corona Island where the Eighteen Branch is located?
Moreover, what Li Yan was talking about was not providing the Corona Type 18 to the revolutionary army, but firearms that were stronger than the Corona Type 18.
Not to mention, Li Yan also claimed to be able to provide a large amount of devil fruits to the revolutionary army.
This shocked Dorag extremely.
After all, this thing has a price but no market. More importantly, even if it has a price and a market, it can't get much with the limited funds of the revolutionary army.
Generally speaking, if you tighten your belt for a whole year, you can buy 1 or 2 of them with the money saved, which is good.
However, although what Li Yan said shocked and moved Dorag, he also knew that nothing in this world is given away for free.
"what is your purpose?"
"The independence of the navy, or the independence of the East China Sea Navy!"
"Navy...independence?"
"Yes, getting out of Mariejoia's control allows the Navy to no longer be restrained by anything and execute justice in the true sense!"
Good guy, Dorag was also shocked when he heard what Li Yan said.
I don't even dare to say this. After all, the Navy has been under the control of Marigio for so many years, and a fixed mindset has long been formed. It is undoubtedly difficult to achieve this from within.
This is also the reason why Dolag rebelled from the navy and formed a revolutionary army.
After all, in his opinion, it is undoubtedly more difficult to change the navy than to create a new force, and it is even almost impossible.
"Are you serious?"
"Couldn't be more serious!"
"Okay, let's go back to the original topic. You said that there are prerequisites for cooperation. What is this prerequisite?"
"Three months ago, the Kingdom of West Highcliff!"
"What's the meaning?"
Hearing this, Dorag's expression suddenly changed.
"Do you want me to be more clear?"
"Three months ago, the revolutionary army successfully incited civilians to launch a riot in the Kingdom of Cliff in the West Sea. Finally, under the command of the commander of the Northern Army code-named Crow, they successfully overthrew the local royal family and nobles."
"If I remember correctly, the revolutionary army hailed this operation as the most successful operation in history, right?"
"But what happens after that?"
"After doing all this, all the revolutionary troops evacuated from the Kingdom of Cliff, and when they left, they only took away those people who had been absorbed into the revolutionary army."
"On the seventh day after the Revolutionary Army withdrew, Marie Joa and the navy arrived at the Kingdom of Cliff and carried out a strong suppression there!"
"According to subsequent statistics, at least 100,000 innocent civilians were killed in that crackdown!"
"After that, the people of Cliff Kingdom lived a more difficult life than before the riots!"
"So, Dorag, what is the purpose of the Revolutionary Army?"
After hearing Li Yan's soul torture, Dorag was speechless for a while.
He understood all this, but he had nothing to do.
After all, the strength of the Revolutionary Army is far, far behind that of Marie Joa.
Therefore, if you want to increase your strength, you must show impressive results and attract more people with strength or expertise in certain areas.
And if you want to do this, it is obviously the best way to use the excessive oppression of the common people by some nobles in the kingdom to incite some riots.
On the one hand, with such an operation, the revolutionary army only needs to hide behind the scenes and control it, and does not need to rush to the front to fight hard, which can preserve its strength to the greatest extent.
On the other hand, such actions can prove to the world that the revolutionary army has the power to overthrow the aristocracy.
The most important thing is that a large number of capable talents can be absorbed from this process to quickly expand the strength of the revolutionary army.
After all, the more war-torn a place is, the more it is a hotbed for their revolutionary army, right?
If we look at it from a long-term perspective, these actions of Dolag can also be said to be sacrifices that had to be made in the early stage in order to finally achieve the goal.
After all, the man who can form a revolutionary army is naturally not the Virgin.
But this kind of thing cannot be stated openly.
"Dorag, I can cooperate with the revolutionary army, but the premise is..."
"The revolutionary army must change its operational strategy and can no longer harm ordinary civilians like this!"
Looking at the silent Dorag, Li Yan spoke.
In fact, Dorag didn't want to do this, but wasn't there anything he could do?
If the revolutionary army wasn't strong enough, would he need to deal with it like this?
It’s not necessary at all, okay!
Therefore, Li Yan's request also put Dolag in a dilemma.
If you agree, the revolutionary army will receive unprecedented strong support.
But at the same time, the action strategy that has been going on for many years and has achieved great results must also be stopped.
Say no...
Dolag really couldn't say anything.
After all, the things Li Yan gave, let alone him...
Even Marie Joa will drool, right?
"Can you give me some time to think about it? After all, this is related to the future of the entire revolutionary army. I need to go back and discuss with all the cadres!"
"Okay, but I can only wait a month at most?"
