When the dragon and his companions were brought to the world of Naruto, to the kingdom of light that Kizaru said.
He had the same reaction as Whitebeard, Garp and others who came earlier.
The Kingdom of Light may not be called a paradise on earth, but compared to the pirate world, which is oppressed and exploited by the world government and kings and nobles, it is much better.
When Long walked on the bustling streets, he saw energetic residents, officials with no pretensions, and a systematic management system that did not need the so-called kings and nobles.
"The Kingdom of Light has now established a complete system of affairs officers. After three to eight years of study in different schools, these affairs officers will be assigned to different local and departmental grassroots levels based on their test scores and school performance.
Take office."
Kizaru accompanied Long and explained to him the core of the internal operation of the Kingdom of Light, which was the perfect grassroots management and mature affairs officer system.
This ensures that even if there are changes at the top, the basic order of this huge country can be maintained.
"This is what I want to tell you. It is not difficult to govern a country. It does not require any genius or hero. What the people really need is perfect grassroots management and sufficient grassroots officials."
Kizaru's words brought a lot of inspiration to Long.
Looking back on the past, he led the revolutionary army on the sea and constantly provoked actions to resist the atrocities of the world government. Most of the failures were in defeating those tyrants and corrupt officials. The remaining members of the revolutionary army were unable to organize well.
Recruit local people and conduct self-management.
As long as they are intelligent creatures, they will have their own desires and selfishness. After they defeat the old exploiters, they do not want to completely eliminate exploitation, but they want to become new exploiters.
As for the remaining people, they only need new officials and nobles who treat them a little better and stop oppressing and exploiting them so much. They will think that they have achieved an unprecedented victory and will ignore it in the cheers and beautiful vision of the future.
However, the environment they live in has never changed.
This is why Long Hou adjusted the policy of the revolutionary army and began to secretly cooperate with some countries that could not bear the oppression of the world government. After overthrowing the rule of the local tyrant, he chose to support the local prestigious and wise people to become the new king.
reasons.
Long realized that if he wanted to challenge the behemoth of the World Government, he and his revolutionary army must try their best to unite friends who can bring help, and at the same time, make appropriate compromises while promoting the revolution.
Overthrowing the world government and eliminating the world's nobility is the main contradiction facing the revolutionary army now.
After Long followed Kizaru to visit residential areas, commercial areas, and grassroots office departments, he ended the day's visit.
This trip to the Kingdom of Light brought him a lot of shock and gain. He never thought that someone could actually build such an advanced country.
Yes, Long is willing to use advanced to describe the Kingdom of Light.
Here, he saw children and ordinary people walking on the street, and he could greet Kizaru without any scruples, without any fear or restraint.
Just this point is extremely rare among the many countries that Long has experienced.
These discoveries made him have a more favorable impression of Kizaru and the Kingdom of Light.
After the participation, Kizaru took Long to the guest house specially arranged for him.
In a room on the second floor of the guest house, Kizaru and Long sat opposite each other on a single sofa.
Kizaru took out a cigar and threw it at the dragon. After the two lit the cigar, they started to get to the point.
Kizaru exhaled the smoke, put down his right hand holding the cigar, and said: "We have just reached peace talks with the World Government, and we will not have another open conflict with them in the short term."
Long nodded, he understood Kizaru's decision.
"On the surface, there will be no connection between the Kingdom of Light and the Revolutionary Army, but secretly, we can support you with some supplies for free, and at the same time provide you with low-cost supplies for a long time."
"That's enough. I'm very grateful for your help." Long said gratefully.
The revolutionary army, which has always been regarded as the biggest threat by the world government and most of the participating countries, has suffered a huge blockade in terms of material procurement.
This forced them to purchase supplies and arms from big pirates and underground forces at high prices.
If you can get low-price or even affordable materials from Kizaru, it can bring great help to the revolutionary army.
After giving the gift, Kizaru naturally had some needs. He was not polite and said directly: "Thank you. I need the revolutionary army to do me a favor."
"What?" Long straightened his expression and did not agree.
"I want to know the location of the so-called smartest scientist, Bergabank." Kizaru shook the cigar in his hand and looked directly at the dragon with sharper eyes.
Kizaru vaguely remembered that there seemed to be some connection between the Revolutionary Army and Bergabank. He could not remember the specific plot, but he was convinced that Long knew the location of Bergabank.
Hearing this name from Kizaru's mouth, Long still maintained his composure on the surface, but there was still a trace of hesitation in the depths of his eyes.
As the smartest scientist in the pirate world, Vegabank has been coveted by all forces on the sea for more than a day or two.
The World Government has been trying its best to block the information of Bergabank in order to prevent any accidents.
"What is your purpose?" Long asked calmly.
Kizaru laughed, "Of course it is the development of science and technology. Science and technology can promote the development of productivity, and only when productivity is improved can the lives of the citizens of the Kingdom of Light be improved.
To be honest, in my opinion, asking those scientists to research weapons is simply the biggest waste of their talents.
I hope to bring Begabank to the Kingdom of Light, where I will fully support his experiments. At the same time, I will use administrative power to directly put those excellent results into market-oriented production, so that my people can best
Enjoy the advancement of technology soon.”
If there is anyone in the pirate world who has the greatest value in Kizaru's eyes, it is none other than Vegabank.
In the pirate world, Kizaru doesn't need anyone. What he values is the world's population, resources, land, market, and scientific research talents.
After Long listened to Kizaru's words, he was silent for a moment. He looked at the burning cigar and thought about what if he told Kizaru the location of Vegabank. If the already powerful Kingdom of Light received Vegabank's technical support,
What will the world look like in the future?
It may become better, but those countries on the sea will most likely be gradually annexed by the Kingdom of Light.
The Kingdom of Light will become a terrorist country that is larger and more powerful than the World Government, and has full execution power at the grassroots level.
Such a country, under the leadership of Kizaru, could adhere to the current advanced ideas, but what about his descendants?
Think about the current Celestial Dragons, whose ancestors were the founders of the world government.
This is why Long disapproved of overthrowing the world government and establishing a new country to rule the entire sea.
Dragon slayers will eventually turn into evil dragons one day.
This is an unsolvable problem, and Long sees it very clearly, so he hopes to retain the independence of the countries on the sea.
In this way, even if the monarch of one country becomes fatuous and there are monarchs of other countries who are wise enough, competition between countries and external pressure will make the king and officials guarantee a certain lower limit.
Competition is better than a monopoly, this is Long's view.
