Chapter 139 Reform from another world
For a moment, everyone became quiet and the square fell into death. The navy did not expect that General Kim Jong was not here to kill the pirates; the Whitebeard Pirates did not expect that the person who had obtained the power of the father's shocking fruit would choose to let them go.
"Augustin," the Warring States Marshal pointed at him, "Do you know what the consequences will be?"
"It's okay, I will bear all the consequences. I won't let you, the Marshal, take the blame!" Augustine said without looking back. He looked in the direction of the Whitebeard Pirates. There was Jinping and Luffy there, and a huge pirate ship appeared faintly in the thick fog. The flag on the ship was a red-haired skeleton.
Shanks had already come, but when Whitebeard was alive, he could not enter the battlefield belonging to the Whitebeard Pirates. It was not helping Whitebeard, but humiliating him.
Augustine and Shanks looked at each other from a distance, and after a long time, they looked at each other and smiled.
"Everyone, like Jotireo Augustine Saint, I am here to end this war, and I hope to sell my face here." said Red-haired Shanks. "Whitebeest, Ace, please give us the funerals of these two people. The war has spread all over the world. I will not allow anyone to defile their deaths."
Redhead's request was not too much. It was necessary to quell the war. If Whitebeard or Ace's body was desecrated, the Whitebeard Pirates might have to fight to the death. However, some people in the Navy obviously would not agree with Redhead's opinion.
"What do you do your own thing? Only by showing the heads of these two people can it be called a victory for the Navy!"
"Lieutenant General said yes!"
"Do you want to discredit our victory?"
"Don't accept the instructions of the pirates!"
......
"It's okay," the Marshal of the Warring States Period finally spoke, "It's okay to leave it to you, red-haired."
"marshal!?"
"I'll take responsibility." Warring States Period said with a serious face.
"Marson of the Warring States Period," Augustine returned the words of the Warring States Period as before, "Do you know what the consequences will be?"
"It's okay, I will bear all the consequences. I won't let you, the new world's Marshal, take the blame!" Unexpectedly, the Marshal of the Warring States Period was quite humorous, and Augustine couldn't help but complain in her heart.
"You are indeed here!" Augustine looked at the red-haired Shanks and said, "Red-haired Shanks!"
"Ah..." Red-haired Shanks, "So... I'll have a chance to see you again, Marshal of the New World Navy, Jotireo Augustine St!"
Anyway, with Augustine and Redhead's intervention, the war finally ended. The Navy and the Pirates began to search for their injured companions for treatment.
As the pirates left, Augustine also left the scarred Marlene Ferdo. When he passed the holy land - Marychoa again, Augustine did not meet the mysterious Twenty Kings. This made him feel relieved.
......
Back in the New World, Augustine began to relocate his headquarters to Dresrosa and slowly began to secretly implement his various reform plans. Among them, the most important reform was land and tax reform. Augustine took land surveys and records of 23 countries and islands located in the New World under his control, dismissed the original national nobles, and promoted the talented people to be the local officials.
Taxation has also changed from the original head tax to taxation based on land area, encouraging land reclamation and commercial activities. In this way, a large amount of labor is liberated, and the more labor the farmers pay, the more they get, and at the same time, it also avoids the corruption and corruption of local nobles.
This kind of reform can easily receive the hearts of the working people at the bottom, and at the same time, it can gather a large amount of wealth that was originally controlled by the nobles into Augustine's own hands.
However, after all, it is not only the Aquarium Star of ordinary people. Personal force plays a decisive role in this world. Augustine has formulated some hierarchical treatments, continuing and reforming the aristocratic system, so that those who are capable can become nobles. For those who are capable, various discounts and benefits are formulated so that they can enjoy status and treatment that suits their identities under their command.
A year later, Augustine saw that the reforms he implemented had achieved very good results, and the people under the New World Naval System were able to live a peaceful and peaceful life, and the Bailey that Augustine controlled reached a very terrifying level.
Augustine adopted a very tough and iron-blooded policy in the early stage to promote the reform. Although some people opposed Augustine's series of reforms, they could not cause any waves in the face of absolute power.
At this time, Augustine began to come up with the second plan in his hand, the rule of law. The world government also claims to be the rule of law in the world, but that law is the law of the dragon people, the law of the royal family and the nobles. The rules and regulations in it are all established to allow the nobles to better exploit civilians.
Augustine lets the whole world see what is the real rule of law. Article 1 of the Constitution formulated by Augustine stipulates that within the sphere of influence of the New World Navy, everyone is equal before any race, any identity, or the law.
You read that right, Augustine wrote himself in the first article of the Constitution.
This constitution was successfully released after more than a year of research, formulated and revised, and has formulated and revised it for several months. It has formulated strict laws on administration, agriculture, industry, commerce, taxation, and civil affairs. It is necessary to allow various countries under the control of the New World Navy to have laws to follow, and patrol various places on time to accept complaints from the public, so that the law must follow.
Because of the progress in thought and cognition, Augustine can be said to be far ahead of this world. Not to mention the corrupt world government, even the revolutionary army, is far from his advanced ideas. While the whole world was shocked by Augustine's actions, many people cursed him, but at the same time, many like-minded people came to join him and support his actions. Some wise monarchs in some countries were even secretly learning from and implementing Augustine's policy of governing the country.
