# Chapter 582: The Revolutionary Army
On a Yarcheman Mangrove not far away, Borsalino closed the Influence Den Den Mushi.
The Marines had said there was no need to intervene, but they ultimately sent him to observe and gather intelligence.
After all, Area Number 18 had gathered quite a few formidable characters, and conflict might break out.
It was highly likely that those Marine Officers wouldn't be able to control the situation, requiring close attention.
"How scary! These monsters."
Borsalino smiled nonchalantly.
As long as they weren't enemies, it had nothing to do with him.
Perhaps he could even make some friends.
However, his heart wasn't as peaceful as it appeared on the surface.
"Ten Thousand Snakes" was not as simple as it seemed.
Besides Möbius, Cho'Gath, who ate Möbius's ability creation, or rather, a part of his body, hid terrifying strength.
A wild beast in human skin, without Möbius's suppression, he could go on a killing spree at any moment.
Borsalino didn't know his name, as he had never been exposed on The Great Sea before this.
The other "White Demon," Loki, seemed more normal, but was also a young monster.
Among the other members of "Ten Thousand Snakes," there were also many outstanding strongmen.
Such strength was enough to dominate the Four Seas.
"Specific handling will be left to the Staff Officer and the others. Anyway, I've recorded everything."
As soon as he finished speaking, Borsalino's gaze swept across the island, and then his body turned into golden light and quickly flew back to Area No. 29.
Sabaody Archipelago had been in a lively state these past few days.
The influx of a large population further promoted the prosperity of trade on the island.
The unique Bubble Culture was also spread throughout the World through live streaming.
Loguetown would develop from a remote small place into a prosperous town in just a few decades because of Roger's execution.
Sabaody Archipelago, with a better foundation, would only develop better.
Dragon, clad in a black robe, moved through the crowd.
There were many people dressed like him, so he didn't attract others' attention.
In an instant, a gust of wind swept past, and his figure disappeared.
The pedestrian who had been walking beside him turned their head, as if they had encountered a ghost, or perhaps it was just their own imagination.
He also came to witness the upcoming end of a legend.
He hadn't originally wanted to come, but he vaguely felt the Wind of the Era.
Roger's execution might bring astonishing changes to the Great Sea that followed.
This wasn't speculation.
Although he had left Marine Headquarters, he still had his confidants within the Marines, allowing him to obtain some intelligence.
For example, the fact that "Pirate King" Roger was arrested in itself revealed a kind of strangeness.
Why was it only Roger alone?
What about the other members of the Roger Pirates?
His intuition told him that this matter was not that simple.
Ever since he incited a rebellion on the Red Line and was then forcefully suppressed.
Facing a more vigilant World Government, there wasn't much he could do.
So he left the Red Line.
By chance, hearing the news of a rebellion breaking out within a kingdom in the West Blue, he came into contact with the Revolutionary Faction.
Their goal was to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the nobles, advocating the ideals of freedom and equality.
Such thinking deeply attracted Dragon.
He already knew what he wanted to do, but he lacked a clear vision and didn't know how to do it.
The rebellion was easily suppressed.
The kingdom had a military and weapons.
Although the Revolutionary Faction had ideas that could stir people's hearts, they had no effect whatsoever in the face of strength.
This was inherently an unequal existence.
The World Government and the Marines wouldn't just stand by and watch.
Dragon's vision was being refined.
Recalling the failure of the revolution and his experience on the Red Line.
Dragon realized that to have a revolution, merely having ideas wasn't enough.
There must also be an armed force, a powerful military, a military that could fight in combat and resist the World Government.
During this period, Dragon had been forming his own faction, inviting like-minded people to join his ranks.
With a clear goal, Dragon possessed infinite motivation.
The Revolutionary Army was the organization he intended to establish.
Therefore, based on the "Self-Defense Force" that Dragon had established after leaving the Marines, or rather, while he was still in the Marines.
He would recruit more oppressed people, with the goal of overthrowing the unequal rule of the Celestial Dragons who dominated the World Government.
Clearly understanding the impact the existence of the Revolutionary Army would have on the World Government, and also understanding the World Government's cruel suppression of similar factions, Dragon had been very cautious during this time.
The early development of the Revolutionary Army was very difficult.
Grain alone was a major problem, and the armed forces also needed a large amount of weapons.
Dragon had been trying to find a financial backer who could support their development.
Without money, nothing could be done.
Especially in the current state of chaos on the Great Sea, grain prices remained high.
Most people were self-sufficient.
Those who could sell grain to others were basically the major grain-producing nations.
And these kingdoms were basically under the World Government's attention.
The World Government paid even closer attention to the direction of grain trade.
Having established the Revolutionary Army, how could they resist the World Government? All of this required exploration.
If possible, Dragon actually wanted to launch another resistance against the World Government on the Red Line.
There were a large number of people there who could be absorbed into the Revolutionary Army.
However, he couldn't do that for now.
The development of the Revolutionary Army required a large amount of money.
They needed their own channel to obtain supplies and money.
The early development of a faction, especially one like the Revolutionary Army which was destined to be hidden underground and could not be known to the World Government.
Perhaps the World Government hadn't discovered them yet, but they would be exposed eventually.
Especially after Dragon's identity was exposed, Dragon's mere existence would be enough to attract the World Government's attention.
The World Government was well aware of Dragon's strength and ability.
He was even a monster who was originally being cultivated to be a Fleet Admiral at Marine Headquarters.
At that time, the Revolutionary Army would inevitably face the cruel suppression of the World Government, and even the joint suppression of various Member Nations.
Before that, he had to lead the Revolutionary Army to possess sufficient foundation and base.
And now, he had already begun to plan a revolution, the liberation of a kingdom.
He did not first target a World Government Affiliated Nation, but rather a Kingdom in the West Blue whose domestic situation was already full of conflict.
Firstly, the strength of the Marines and the World Government in the West Blue was relatively weak.
Secondly, the World Government's attention towards non-World Government Affiliated Nations was often not very high.
Furthermore, the World Government and the Marines also had deficiencies in terms of intelligence.
After all, the majority of the Marines' strength was concentrated around Member Nations and Trade Routes.
They often had little control over many Sea Areas and were even poorly informed.
A Marine Base had its own area of responsibility, and generally, they would not leave this area.
These conditions combined prompted this operation by the Revolutionary Army.
Once Roger's execution was over, he would have to rush back to the West Blue.
