Crossover in the Anime World
Chapter 3719 Self-reliance
Duran had not read the results of Olbia's research, and did not know what happened during the blank hundred years, but it was definitely the process of Joyboy going from victory to failure and losing the sea to the Celestial Dragons.
But he was sure that Joyboy did not lose because of insufficient strength, but because he had strength but did not use it, and was finally replaced by the Celestial Dragons.
It could be that the Celestial Dragons betrayed Joyboy, or Joyboy and the first generation Celestial Dragons were acting. Just like in "Attack on Titan", it was not Allen's enemies who killed Allen, but his relatives and friends. Allen died, and as a result, his relatives and friends became heroes with enough achievements, became heroes who saved the world, and naturally became nobles.
The descendants of Allen's relatives and friends were inferior to the previous generation, and finally the war continued.
So the story of Joyboy and the first generation Celestial Dragons is not necessarily a betrayal. It could also be that Joyboy took everything on his shoulders in order to allow his relatives and friends to obtain legal rights.
However, seeing that the Celestial Dragons are very secretive about the blank history of the hundred years, it is more likely that they betrayed Joyboy. Of course, it is also possible that the first generation of Celestial Dragons protected Joyboy's reputation and asked everyone not to mention the past.
All are possible.
Duran said that the unknown is fun, but according to the rules, there must be routines such as "having power but not using it" and "believing in the enemy". Joyboy must be very strong and definitely did not die on the front battlefield. The Celestial Dragons and Joyboy are not necessarily enemies, they may also be relatives and friends.
"It is not important how history is recorded, what is important is why they record it in this way. The position of the author who records history can also reflect the social structure of the author at that time." Duran said that history is not just black and white paper, but also the position of the author.
Denise completely agrees that the blank history of one hundred years also represents the position of the Moonlight Family who recorded the history of Wano Country at that time. The blank history of one hundred years was carved and made by the Moonlight Family. They must have their own purpose in recording Joyboy's story.
Therefore, the historical text inevitably carries the position of the Moonlight Family. It can be said that all historical books inevitably carry the position of the author. Since Confucius wrote the Spring and Autumn Annals, he likes to speak in subtle ways. Later, Sima Qian also brought in personal preferences.
"History is not only in words, but also in our witnesses." Denise said that they are witnessing history now.
Ace and King Luffy completed the century reunion, and King Luffy established a new army. At the same time, Kowloon Bank and Doflamingo came to invest. Ace also proposed to cooperate with Mechanical Island to build more ocean current highways.
The sea is huge, how to quickly mobilize the army? The navy uses seastone. In addition to restraining devil fruits, seastone has a very useful function, which is to push warships through the doldrums.
The navy can quickly pass through the doldrums to reach the combat position, which is why the navy can deploy quickly.
Ace and King Luffy's army also face the problem of rapid dispatch.
Wang Luffy said: "After we revolted, we were blocked by the navy. The navy is much faster than us. Their seastone warships can adapt to various sea conditions. Most of the seastone ore is controlled by the navy. Although we have seastone mines in Wano Country, we are still not as good as the navy. So we have to develop our advantages and create our own speed."
"Yes, just like what I thought, the ocean current highway is the future." Ace thought so too, and said: "The navy has been developing seastone technology for hundreds of years. If we want to compete with them in seastone technology, we should open up another track if we have no advantage."
The two hit it off and immediately cooperated with the mechanical island to deploy troops using the ocean current highway. At the same time, they also sent people to learn high-speed technology. After learning, they established ocean current highways in their own territory to allow more people to use new transportation methods.
With the ocean current highway, time can be greatly saved. At the same time, the amount of goods transported has increased a lot, and consumption has decreased a lot. Although tolls need to be paid, it is still very cost-effective.
In more than ten years, the third phase of the sea current highway has been completed. Many businessmen have used the high-speed sea current and love it.
"Fortunately, we are no longer pirates who rob, otherwise everyone will take the sea current highway in the future, what will we rob?" Some pirates lamented that there is no guarantee for the profession of pirates. With the development of the times, the difficulty of robbery has become higher and higher.
"The high-speed sea current is really strong, the speed is too fast, our ship can't keep up at all. If you pay to get on the highway, you can't quit halfway, and you can only be arrested at the destination." Once you get on the highway, you can't get off halfway, you can only go to the end, and the enemy can catch the turtle in the jar as long as you block both ends.
The emergence of high-speed sea currents has greatly replaced traditional routes. Many islands that rely on route development have lost their advantages. In the past, they took advantage of the terrain, and ships coming and going had to dock for supplies, but now that high-speed sea currents have come, they don't need to go for supplies.
For example, to go to the Great Route, you need to cross the Red Soil Continent and go to the islands around the Upside Down Mountain for supplies. But now you can directly cross the Red Soil Continent, and the sea current highway has opened a tunnel on the Red Soil Road.
The old supply points lost their advantages, and new supply points began to rise.
Military depends on politics, politics depends on economics, and economics depends on geography. In the beginning, people completely relied on natural geography to determine their settlements. Then, when humans had the ability to transform nature, they would transform nature and create advantages.
In addition to building cities at natural gateways, canals can also be dug and roads opened. In the railway era, many cities rose because of railway transportation, and the same is true for shipping. Many cities exist because of ports.
When everyone chooses new, faster and more convenient transportation methods, the old transportation methods are abandoned, and the islands that rose by relying on the old transportation methods will decline.
The high-speed ocean current brings new opportunities for rise, and many poor islands will be willing to support it. These backward islands have no advantages in the original rules of the game. In the new opportunity, they can try it.
The World Government originally wanted to support high-speed ocean currents. In fact, they contacted the Mechanical Island earlier than Ace. But the problem is that the efficiency of the World Government is too low, and many member countries are unwilling to develop high-speed ocean currents.
Even if they are willing to develop, they hope that the high-speed ocean current can pass through their own islands, such as Alabasta. They are willing to accept the high-speed ocean current, but they must pass through Alabasta.
Of course, there are also people who oppose it, such as the Seven Water Cities. If the high-speed ocean current is established, the Seven Water Cities will have to transform to build ships that meet the ocean current. At that time, they may not be able to compete with other islands. After all, they already have many orders for sailboats and cannot take new orders. Once other islands rely on new orders to develop, the Seven Water Cities will be eliminated.
The Seven Water Cities are not just one shipyard, but a group of shipyards. They all oppose it, and Iceberg can do nothing about it.
There are also islands where the seastone mines are produced, which are also opposed to the high-speed ocean current. Once everyone uses the high-speed, the demand for seastone will be greatly reduced. How can they live?
The old industries are struggling, they don’t want to change, they just want to maintain their existing advantages. And these are the problems that the world government has to face. After all, these old industries are their mainstay. Smart people can see that they must change, must upgrade, and must change the law, but the problem is that the resistance is too great.
Obviously, the world government contacted the mechanical island very early, but it got up early and caught up late. The old industries have been obstructing the upgrade. The result is that although Ace cooperated with the Mechanical Island a little later, the construction speed was much faster than the World Government.
Ace wanted to use new technology to open up a new track, and then people in the world could choose for themselves, whether to choose the new track or the old route.
It must be the new route, because in the old route, in order to maintain their advantage, the nobles would only concentrate more and more resources and shirk their obligations more and more, which would accelerate their demise.
The reason why the prosperity declined is that a lot of resources are needed to maintain the prosperity. What if there are not enough resources? They exploited and squeezed frantically, and as a result, the resources distributed to everyone became less and less, and everyone went to support others, so they became weak.
"I don't need to defeat the Celestial Dragons, as long as I do my best, the Celestial Dragons will defeat themselves." Ace said that the Celestial Dragons also have contradictions that they cannot solve. As long as they are strong enough and do not let the Celestial Dragons divert the contradictions, the Celestial Dragons will be suffocated in the end.
If Ace is not strong enough and is killed by the Celestial Dragons, then Ace's industry will be absorbed by the Celestial Dragons, and they will divert the contradictions and continue their lives.
