At First, Justice Exists
Dressrosa.
“Yes, I understand. Thank you very much, Mr. Crowe. Give my regards to his lordship.”
David held the microphone and said a few words. As the other party hung up the phone, he sighed and said, “Master has business and can’t come. I entrust you two plenipotentiary representatives.”
In front of him, Kaz and Wilbur sat.
Indeed, after the two of them confirmed the escort route and gathered with David, they were invited by David and their station was in Dressrosa.
David very considerately found a large building next to the palace to serve as a Marine base and it was being modified.
Wilbur nodded with some excitement and yearning. “Mr. Kuro must be thinking and working hard for ‘safe justice’. We can’t slack off.”
Kaz said solemnly: “That’s right, we are far from it. We have to work harder to keep up with Mr. Kuro!”
David leaned forward and crossed his hands under his chin. He said faintly, “Now I have cleaned up the nobles on the original Dressrosa island, but there are still a lot of them. Dressrosa’s current territory is very large, and there are still many nobles who have not been killed.”
This was what gave David a headache. He could not wait to fulfill his master’s long-cherished wish for peace, but reality told him that it was not that simple.
Dressrosa alone, because of this noble purge, even though David found many reasons to avoid making Dressrosa panic, it still made many citizens start to fear.
If they were only afraid of David, he would not be afraid. But once they were afraid, it was not just David himself, but the whole country.
Some time ago, after David finished his work, many citizens fled to Greenbitt. No one knew why they fled.
If not for the fact that Riku’s reputation is still there and David asked him to appease these people, the people of Dressrosa would probably run to the sea.
When David thought of this, he felt a little indignant. “The limitations are too great. Master is right, the theory of natural bloodlines has penetrated their hearts! We must let Master’s faith in justice fill their hearts as soon as possible and eliminate the theory of natural bloodlines!”
Wilbur nodded and took out a book that was different from the kind of record book like the Just Words.
Yes, books. The surface of the books is golden. Even in this slightly dark room, the books are glowing with a faint golden light.
“The sample is almost done.”
He placed the book on the table and pushed it forward as if it was a holy object. He said solemnly, “After our previous discussion, Mr. Kuro’s justice has been roughly interpreted by us, but we can’t say it all. We also have to understand it often and improve this book.”
On the golden cover were four big words written by Wilbur himself. They were very righteous—Justice Faith.
“It’s already done? As expected of you, Wilbur!” David said happily.
The two of them did not come to Dressrosa for nothing. The three of them often annotated and discussed the article they found in the old house of Kuro.
In addition, Kaz was responsible for escorting and training Marines. David followed the method of that article and let the soldiers of the Kingdom train according to the training methods of the Headquarters Marine. Many people were eliminated. Those soldiers who were eliminated were still soldiers, but they were no longer part of the elite training camp. The selected people were David’s foundation in the future.
Wilbur, on the other hand, was responsible for reorganizing the book “Quotations of Justice” and making notes. They also had to find sentences that ordinary people could easily understand so that they could accept it.
“It’s okay, mainly because what Mr. Kuro said is too obscure and needs to be understood with heart.”
Wilbur said, “What Mr. Kuro said takes too much time to understand. If you copy it according to the original text, the civilians will definitely not understand it, so it needs to be annotated. For example, Mr. Kuro once said, ‘Fuck him,’ which took me a long time to understand.”
David immediately perked up. “I’ve also seen these words in ‘Quotations of Justice’, but I’ve never been able to understand them. What do you mean?”
“When you were in Dressrosa, you didn’t often come into contact with Mr. Kuro. It’s normal for you not to understand some words, and Mr. Kuro’s words are very difficult to understand in the first place. This ‘f*ck it’ sentence needs to be combined with the context and environment at that time.”
Wilbur thought for a moment and said, “These words came out more than half a year ago. At that time, Mr. Kuro was still stationed in Sabaody. At that time, I still remember that there were still pirates in Sabaody. There were even local residents of Sabaody who killed a few people and went to sea to be pirates. When it was reported, Mr. Kuro said this.”
“This sentence seems to be a vulgar saying to express anger, but the meaning is not so shallow. This sentence seems to express anger to the person who went to sea as a pirate, but it is deeper reflected in the deep hatred of the Great Age of Pirates, the intolerance of evil, and the hatred of those who went to sea as pirates.”
“Mr. Kuro is a very gentlemanly and gentle person, but at this time, he wants to tell us that we can also be a little vulgar to these evil people, and there is no need to hold back any manners. Then, to summarize, this sentence is translated as —”
“When dealing with evil, everyone should fight back with violence, not endure!”
“Oh!!! Sparashi!”
David widened his eyes and said excitedly, “So that’s what it means. I finally understand. It’s great! Master’s words are really good. We should fight back against evil! So, when we encounter evil, we have to be brave and say it to them…”
“Fuck him!” The three of them shouted together and then laughed at the same time.
David opened the cover of the book. Inside was a handwritten scroll made of parchment. There was only one line on the first page—
At first, justice exists!
“Wilbur, this book will definitely have a strong impact on the people!”
David stroked the gilded book and couldn’t bear to part with it. “Is there any extra? I want one too.”
Wilbur shook his head. “That’s the problem. There doesn’t seem to be a printing factory in Dressrosa. We can’t mass-produce it. I copied this one by hand, but it’s too much work to want a copy by Dressrosa.”
Printing houses were something that the World Government and some major newspapers had, but it seemed that they did not.
Of course, most, or all, countries are not very interested in this.
King David was not interested in it in the past, and he had no channels to get it.
But now he has encountered a difficult problem.
Without printing, how these books are mass-produced.
However, if he handed it over to the newspaper office to print it, putting aside the cost, whether the newspaper office was willing or not is another matter. Moreover, David still wants to spread it according to his control.
“Sigh…”
He sighed. “If it really doesn’t work, I’ll ask the newspaper.”
“No need.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded outside.
“On my way here, I happened to find a ship with a ready-made printing machine. It’s from the World Economic News.”
