The meeting of the four emperors was an unprecedented first. The whole world was paying attention, wondering what agreement the four emperors would reach. At the same time, everyone was also paying attention to the navy and wanted to know how the navy would react. The four emperors are now riding on the head of the navy.
Well, if the four emperors really reach a cooperation agreement, they will manage a large number of islands by bypassing the world government and form a new pattern.
Of course, many people think that there will be no results from the meeting between the four emperors, because the styles of the four emperors are too different, and there is no way to reach an agreement.
The gap between the four emperors is indeed huge. Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido, and Shanks all have their own styles, and they all work independently. It is difficult to imagine that they can work together.
But some people think that the past was the past, and the present is now: "In the past, no one knew that Roger had a son, but now Roger's son is the best successor to the Pirate King, and everyone should support Ace."
"This idea is too natural. Although Ace is powerful, the Yonko are not weak either. Big Mom and Kaido have strong military strength. Why should they listen to Ace?"
Everyone expresses their own opinions, and there cannot be a unified opinion. The specific results will depend on the actual results of the Four Emperors Conference.
Wano Country, an island that has been closed for twenty years. At that time, Oden, the general of Wano Country, was also a big shot. He was a man loved by Whitebeard and the Pirate King.
But later when Oden returned to his hometown, he found that his position as general had been usurped, and Kaido had come to the island to become the mastermind behind the scenes. In order to save his hometown, Oden believed Kaido's words and began to dance naked,
A jump of five years. In the end, Kaido did not keep his promise and let Oden get into trouble. In the end, Oden listened again and died.
This is an upgraded version of trusting the enemy.
Zoro believed in the navy and let him go as long as he was tied up under the scorching sun for a month. As a result, the navy had no intention of fulfilling the contract and was ready to kill Zoro when his hands and feet became weak.
Nami believed that as long as she collected 100 million beli, the evil dragon would sell the village to her. As a result, the evil dragon colluded with the navy to steal 100 million, and he could still play tricks on Nami without breaking the contract.
Chopper's adoptive father spent the last three days of his life trying to persuade the king, but was killed by the king.
There is also the village chief of Kongdao who believes in Elnilu and hands all the tourists who enter Kongdao to Elnilu to be executed. He believes that this can save the village, but Elnilu has actually decided to bomb the Kongdao before setting off.
It also seems that Robin believed what CP9 said and cooperated with them to frame Luffy, believing that this would protect Luffy.
Of course, in the original book, Sanji believed that as long as he completed the political marriage, Big Mom could let go of his companions. He resolutely left the team, but Luffy and Big Mom still had a violent conflict.
Oden also believes in Kaido. As long as he fulfills Kaido's request, Wano Country will be saved and everyone will be happy.
But in the end, all those who believed in the enemy were slapped in the face, and their faces were swollen. In the end, Luffy defeated the enemy through force and saved everyone.
What does this mean? It means that if peace is sought through compromise, peace will perish, and if peace is sought through struggle, peace will exist. A great man is a great man, and he hits the nail on the head.
Anyone who seeks peace through compromise will be slapped in the face in the end. In the end, Luffy's fists are still needed to deal with the enemy.
However, the compromise made by Zoro, Nami, Chopper's adoptive father, Sky Island Village Chief, Robin and others still makes sense. After all, they are weaker, so they hope to solve the problem as soon as possible through compromise. But Oden is obviously not a weakling, this is
A man loved by Whitebeard and the Pirate King, such a man cannot be weak.
Oden is indeed very strong and can defeat the immortal Kaido with just one sword, but such a man still compromises in the end, which is incomprehensible.
Maybe it's because pirates such as Roger and Whitebeard only need to consider robbing other people's assets, but the general's successor needs to think a lot. Oden, as the general's successor Nemasa Akira, needs to consider a lot, such as interpreting the historical text, such as
Seclusion, such as the international situation, such as dancing naked, such as dancing naked, such as dancing naked...
It is normal for the heir of a general to have some quirks, so he had a chance to defeat Kaido, but in the end he chose to compromise and trust the enemy.
In the end, everyone died and the country fell into the hands of the usurper. Oden's experience once again tells everyone not to trust the enemy and not seek peace through compromise.
Among our own people, allies, and enemies, we would rather believe in our enemies than our own people and allies. This is Oden's stupidity. Even if he is not strong enough on his own, he can still ask for reinforcements. Whitebeard and the Pirate King are definitely willing to help. But he still
Choose to trust the enemy.
Du Lan said that he felt familiar with this kind of person: "Speaking of it, the king in "Attack on Titan" is the same. He clearly has the strength to conquer the continent, but he made a 'no-fight agreement'."
Why? Of course because these authors are all from the island nation. The samurai of the island nation were divided into politicians, business circles, and the military. But after World War II, the politicians and business circles betrayed the military, which made the military samurai very unhappy. They thought that there were not yet 100 million people.
The jade was shattered, and the political and business circles gave up. The army clearly had fighting capacity but was betrayed. It had to be sealed on the island. It had no power but could not use it. It was too frustrating.
Therefore, the island is a closed island, and power is powerful, but if you have power, you don’t use it.
Is this really the case? Obviously not, this is just the complaint of the betrayed army. If the army is really powerful, it should first defeat the superiors and destroy the politicians and the business community. It is not that the power is not used, but that the power has long been exhausted.
We can no longer wear silk. The war was fought over resources. It was because the route of resources was cut off that the army opened a second battlefield in the Pacific. And when the war ended, they no longer had the ability to go to sea to plunder resources. Without resources, the war
A hairy war.
Reality is not a manga. In comics, you can talk casually. It can be said that there are countless super giants hidden in the wall, which are enough to flatten the world. It can be said that Oden can break the defense of the immortal Kaido with a single sword, and his strength is comparable to Whitebeard and One Piece.
So in the comic world, you can say that I have power, but I just don’t use it. Hey, I just don’t use it. I just play, I just keep a low profile, I just love peace...
Of course, in reality, there are also people who really believe that islands really have power, but they just lack a reason for war, a legitimate and reasonable reason for war. As long as there is a reason, their power will shock the world.
It's like every time Luffy punches, it's legitimate. Although the cheating is unreasonable, the reason for the war is very good, which is to protect the weak. Of course, this is from a small perspective. From a large perspective, Luffy is betraying
wilderness.
Therefore, their power did not go against the political and business circles that betrayed the army, nor did they defeat the superiors again. They still hoped to use their strength to expand and rob. With such a lack of spirit, the island country's military was hopeless.
In short, Oden believed in the enemy, danced for five years in the end, and was played to death by Kaido, but he is still a man respected by Whitebeard and the Pirate King, because he is a man who has power but does not use it. Even if Oden dies, he is not
Die from lack of strength, but die from love of peace.
For them, this is the best comfort. As long as there is no real war, they can continue to use this method to comfort everyone. But one day, when everyone's life becomes more and more difficult, they will ask questions:
Everyone can hardly survive. If you have the power, use it. What are you waiting for?
The truth will naturally come out when the time comes. It's not that you have power but don't use it, but that you don't have power at all.
When everyone's life was getting better, this kind of powerful propaganda without using it was still very popular. Everyone would have a consensus that we are good people. Otherwise, we would have used our power to shock the world. Because we are good people, we have
No power is used either.
As long as everyone can still live their lives, don't use their power when it's not needed, and can get a peace-loving psychological comfort, why not?
But the situation Oden encountered was that Kaido and Orochi were already facing each other. If he had the strength, he would use it. Obviously he could break through the defense with one sword. It would not be impossible to kill Kaido if he tried harder. But if he had the strength, he would not use it.
Because Oden is a 'kind and good person'.
It's a pity that in the eyes of normal people, this is not a good person, he is simply an idiot.
However, Oden's character design perfectly fits the mentality of today's island nation. They can shock the world, but they love peace, so even if they have the power to destroy the world, they will restrain this power because of their love for peace and move themselves.
