Chapter 480 "My First Half of Life"
Chapter 480 "My First Half of Life"
The revolutionary army's invasion of the Holy Land and the death of King Cobra triggered unprecedented turmoil.
According to the World Government, the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army sneaked into Pangu City and assassinated King Cobra. The Five Elders were unable to stop him, allowing Sabo to escape successfully.
However, after a lot of chaos, everyone discovered that the Alabasta ship had left without saying goodbye, as if they had anticipated that something big would happen. They didn't even care about the body of King Cobra and disappeared in a flash.
Alabasta's attitude made the kings of various countries smell something strange.
King Neptune of Fishman Island, King Riku of Dressrosa, King Black of the Star Kingdom, King Wapol of the Drum Kingdom, and many other delegates and kings from other countries applied to leave Marijoa early, citing concerns for their safety.
Queen Alice of the Vera Kingdom had no intention of leaving. Not only did she not want to leave, she also strongly encouraged the kings of various countries to get to the bottom of Cobra's death, causing the Five Elders a headache.
It's not easy to do anything to her in broad daylight.
Fortunately, under the persuasion of the captain of the kingdom's army, King Alice finally decided to leave Marijoa and return to the Kingdom of Vera.
At this point, the World Conference could no longer be held, and the Five Elders had to announce that the World Conference would be adjourned early. The kings of various countries could return on their own or wait for the navy's escort fleet.
Of course, most kings couldn't wait that long. Powerful countries that didn't care about pirates almost immediately set off. Relatively weaker countries left in twos and threes.
Suddenly, Marijoa became "depressed".
This world conference also became the only world conference that ended early since the establishment of the world government.
At the same time, the release of the new book "My First Half of Life" also caused a huge response around the world.
The square in front of the Shogun's Palace in Wano Country was temporarily transformed into a sales venue for the release of the book "My First Half of Life".
As the flashes of cameras and camera-phone bugs flashed, Wano Country General Hiyori, Protector of the Country Prophik, and the world noble "Celestial Dragon" Donquixote Musgard Saint took their seats one after another.
The sale has officially begun!
"Mr. Musgarud Saint!" A reporter stood up and asked Saint Musgarud, "As a world noble, why did you write this book?"
"This world is about to undergo a change." Saint Musgard took the microphone from Profique, "People must know the truth about the World Government and the Celestial Dragons. Someone needs to stand up and explain everything to the world!"
"So, what did you write in this book?"
"Haha, I can only say that this book records my experiences in the first half of my life, and perhaps also the experiences of many other celestial dragons." Saint Musgarud raised a hardcover edition of "My First Half of Life" above his head. "As for the specific contents of the book, please buy it and read it!"
As Saint Musgarud finished speaking, good-natured laughter broke out from the audience.
The reporter wanted to ask more questions, but unfortunately, his chance to ask questions had already been used up, and Saint Musgarud called another reporter to ask questions.
"Saint Musgarud, what I want to ask is, how do you evaluate the first half of your life?"
Upon hearing this question, Saint Musgarud restrained his expression, and the faint smile on his face turned into a serious, even scary look.
"I'm very sorry and remorseful... That kind of life is not what a human being should have. I feel extremely ashamed of the first half of my life."
"Being born as a Celestial Dragon is the greatest misfortune in my life. The crimes I have committed can never be forgiven. But at the same time, I am also very lucky to have met such noble souls as Princess Otohime and Profique in my life... They made me a real person!"
"The reason why I wrote this book is that I hope to save those unfortunate people from the abyss!"
"If I heard correctly, you called the Celestial Dragons unfortunate people?"
The female reporter was obviously a little surprised. As the world's nobles, the Celestial Dragons had the most noble status since birth, with inexhaustible wealth and unimaginable power. They were the envy of everyone. Why, in the eyes of Saint Musgarud, who was also a Celestial Dragon, they looked like a group of pitiful creatures in urgent need of rescue?
"That's because, as Celestial Dragons, while they can easily obtain everything, they are also prone to losing the morality that comes with being human. As a result, the existence of the world's nobles... is a huge disaster for themselves, others, and the entire world."
Saint Musgarud looked solemn, and his tone was somewhat pious.
"I sincerely hope that the book I wrote can change all this! I hope that one day, the unreasonable system of 'world aristocracy privilege' can be abolished!"
When Saint Musgarud finished speaking, the reporters and onlookers present almost jumped up.
This is the first time in history that a Celestial Dragon has publicly advocated the abolition of the privileges of the Celestial Dragons.
……
Wano Country, in front of the bookstore.
People shopping in the bookstore gathered in front of the same bookshelf with a few big words hanging on it - "My First Half of Life" new book on sale.
Even in a non-member country like Wano Country, people are very curious about the world's nobles.
"I really didn't expect that..." a young man from Wano Country said loudly, "'World Nobles' are even worse than Orochi and Kaido!"
"Slave auctions, hunting competitions... do things like this really exist in this world?"
"Everyone!" A young man dressed as a student jumped onto the bookshelf and said, "If we continue to allow the Celestial Dragons to do whatever they want, does this world really have a future?"
"Quick...quickly pull him down! It's dangerous!"
The soldiers of the National Protection Army rushed over and pulled the young man off the bookshelf.
At this time, the crowd around them had already begun to shout, "Down with the Celestial Dragons!"
……
Barudigo.
Long also got "My First Half of Life" as soon as possible.
After briefly flipping through it, Long immediately stood up and gave instructions to the revolutionary army cadres beside him.
"Immediately print and distribute this book as much as possible, so that the people in our base and the surrounding countries can see it! Remember, it must be quick!"
He had a hunch that the publication of this book might help the revolutionary army win over many like-minded partners and make the road to revolution smoother.
Just then, Long received a call.
"Mr. Long..." It was Profick's voice on the other end of the line, "There is something I want to ask you to do. Although you may not be able to make it in time, I still ask you to come if possible."
