Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

What's the meaning?

What does the ancestor mean? !

The messenger has been in contact with Luo Wen for a long time and knows that this seemingly majestic ancestor actually has no airs.

On weekdays, Rowan would even chat and laugh with ordinary soldiers.

In front of such a man, the messenger felt that he did not need to hide his emotions or problems too much.

It was precisely because of this that he was so surprised by Rowan's rhetorical question.

…

The messenger asked:

"Lord Ancestor, why don't you mobilize troops as soon as possible to support Mr. Dalton and the others?"

Rowan paused and asked:

"When did you have the illusion that 'the only enemy is the Beast Pirates'?"

Such remarks naturally caused a chill to surge into the heart of the messenger in an instant.

Not only the messengers, but anyone who is in Alabasta and participates in this battle will feel numb when this problem is spread!

What does it mean to have the illusion that 'the only enemy is the Beast Pirates'?"

Looking at the frowning Luo Wen, the messenger had never seen his ancestor show such an expression!

…

Rowan saw the confusion of the messenger.

And what he is going to say next does need to be conveyed accurately to his own side in this battle by the messenger.

Therefore, Rowan waved his hand and created a perfect replica of Alabasta in his study.

He waved and motioned for the messenger to follow him to the edge of the model sand table.

"Here are the rapeseed flowers."

Rowan pointed to one corner of the coastline.

Even though he had heard about it many times, the messenger couldn't help but sigh when he saw with his own eyes the power of Luo Wenkong's fabricated sand table.

But Rowan's actions did not stop there.

He gently moved his fingers.

Immediately, "Falling Ghost Island", "Gravel Giant", "[Fire Disaster] Ember", "[Disaster] Quinn", "Dalton", "Four Sea Alliance United Army Soldiers", "Sea of ​​Beasts" "Thieves" and many other elements and characters also appeared on the sand table.

The messenger has never seen so many and vividly detailed models.

Looking carefully, these "models" are still acting in different ways.

The most obvious one is the gravel giant.

He had just smashed Onigashima into pieces, and then he knocked away [Fire Calamity] Jhin and beat [Hundred Beasts] Kaido heavily to the ground.

His huge size makes him stand out in this sandbox.

"Alabasta is a superpower with an extremely vast coastline. This is our country's advantage, but it is also one of the focuses of the enemy's attack."

Rowan spoke slowly, then suddenly turned to the messenger and asked:

"[Hundred Beasts] Kaido, what kind of person does he seem to you to be?"

"this……"

The messenger was stunned when he heard this. He never thought that his ancestor would ask him this question!

After thinking again and again, the messenger tentatively replied: "[Hundred Beasts] Kaido is... a strong man?"

Rowan: "..."

He covered his eyes, sighed softly, and then sighed: "Well, there is no need to seriously think about the problem of talking in a hurry."

Messenger: "..."

After a brief interlude, Rowan continued to explain:

"[Hundred Beasts] Kaido is a smart man."

"If he is really as reckless as he appears, then he cannot be regarded as one of the 'Four Emperors'."

Rowan's eyes darkened and he smiled: "To be able to become the Four Emperors, it is not enough to be 'powerful' alone. They must also have a certain degree of power and 'necessity'."

As soon as this statement came out, the messenger became even more puzzled.

If it is easy to understand that "it is necessary to have a certain degree of power to become the four emperors", then the so-called "necessity" is something that the messenger does not understand at all.

Rowan looked at the messenger's expression and explained:

"The so-called 'necessity' refers to the 'necessity' for them to continue to exist in this sea."

After thinking about it, Rowan added again:

"—for world government."

"Um?"

When the messenger heard Luo Wen's explanation, he became even more confused.

What does “for world government” mean?

As pirates, shouldn't the Yonko be the complete opposite of the World Government?

In the view of the messenger, the World Government should wish for the Yonko and the pirates to disappear as soon as possible. Why is the existence of the Yonko "necessary" for the World Government?

This is something that the messenger cannot understand.

Seeing this, Rowan moved his fingers, controlling the surrounding gravel to float slowly, and then asked:

“What is ‘justice’ in the hands of a world government?”

The messenger thought for a moment after hearing this, and then replied without hesitation: "Navy."

indeed.

Speaking of "justice" in the hands of the World Government, what can better represent the justice of the World Government than the navy itself wearing a "cloak of justice"?

Then, Rowan nodded slightly and asked an inexplicable question.

"Since the navy is justice, then why doesn't the 'just' world government just call itself the 'navy'?"

"What?"

The ordering soldier suddenly felt puzzled.

He couldn't understand Rowan's question at all. It was all nonsense!

The navy is an organization under the World Government, and the World Government has other functions besides the "just" navy.

Otherwise, this sea should be ruled by the navy!

Thinking of this, the messenger frowned slightly and thought: "Is it because the World Government has other functions?"

Rowan narrowed his eyes and asked, "What function?"

The messenger shook his head, "I...can't tell clearly."

"I'll tell you."

Rowan grinned, and then suddenly said: "It's to rule the world!"

"ah?"

The messenger opened his mouth and wanted to refute something, but after thinking about it, he found that Luo Wen's description was extremely accurate!

Isn't a world government an organization that rules the world?

But... then again, what does this have to do with the current situation in Alabasta? What does it have to do with the "necessity" of the Yonko's existence?

Rowan stretched out a finger and shaped the gravel in mid-air into the navy's iconic seagull logo.

Then, he continued:

"To maintain domination of the world, what must be done is to maintain the 'balance' of the world."

"The balance of 'good' and 'evil' - that is, the balance of 'justice' and 'evil'."

After hearing these remarks, the messenger was suddenly stunned.

He looked carefully at the navy logo made of gravel in front of him, and suddenly saw a looming "scale" in it.

On one end of the scale is the Navy, and on the other is...

What?

"It's pirates - or 'evil' that includes pirates."

Luo Wen said solemnly: "The most important bargaining chip among the 'evils' is the 'Four Emperors'!"

"understand?"

Rowan looked at the messenger with a smile. The smile and the answer made the messenger's hair stand on end.

"'Pirates' and 'Navy', 'Four Emperors' and 'Admirals' are all necessary for the world government to rule the world..."
