A war to liberate the world!!!!

The Navy and the pirates choosing to cooperate is something that looks incredibly unbelievable in front of the whole world.

After all, in their minds, the Navy and pirates have always been mortal enemies. The Navy capturing pirates was just common sense, but now, the two sides that should have been opposed to each other have actually chosen to cooperate.

And the purpose of this cooperation is to overthrow their superior, the World Government?

As for the Celestial Dragons? No one really cared, because in the eyes of the people, the status of the Celestial Dragons is based on the World Government.

These so-called "descendants of the creators" enjoy privileges such as the right to kill other humans at will and the protection of a Marine Admiral or CP0 if they are offended, all because of the World Government.

Although the Celestial Dragons always claimed to be the privileged class ruling the World Government, people at sea see them more like mascots chosen by the World Government to legitimize itself.

After all, the Celestial Dragons are said to be the descendants of the 20 kings who founded the World Government 800 years ago, but after so many years, it's clear to the people that power is firmly in the hands of the World Government.

So if the World Government is overthrown, what do those pigs have to rely on? Some peasants with pitchforks could probably take them down.

But the broadcast screen only stayed on for a moment before going black again.

Looking at the now dark screen, those watching around the world couldn't even express their frustration in words.

After all, the black screen for more than an hour had everyone on edge, and when it finally came back, it dropped the bombshell that the Navy, pirates, and Revolutionary Army were joining forces to overthrow the World Government.

Then, without saying anything more, the screen went black again.

What about the process of their cooperation? The reasons behind it?

Shouldn't they at least explain why they want to overthrow the World Government?

Those guys protecting the Celestial Dragons and creating systems like member and non-member nations have made everyone upset.

At the very least, they should try to rally some like-minded people to their cause.

After all, who would refuse to have more power?

While countless ordinary people cursed in frustration, other countries and factions around the world were completely stunned.

For them, the strongest power in the world is undoubtedly the World Government, followed by other powers like the Four Emperors, the Revolutionary Army, and the emperors of the underground dark forces.

But now, the Navy, the World Government's ace force, is stepping up to challenge their boss.

What's going on!?

More than this, the member nations under the World Government realized that war was coming. After all, as member nations of the World Government, they must provide troops in times of war.

Almost immediately after the broadcast was cut, many member countries of the World Government began to issue war mobilization orders.

As the world was gripped with anxiety, the Navy's broadcasting Den Den Mushi opened its eyes.

"Look, the broadcast is back..."

"This doesn't look like the Den Den Mushi broadcasting the fight on Lodestar Island."

"Of course not, the Navy's emblem is right there on the Den Den Mushi."

"What do you think the Navy is planning to do?"

"Who knows..."

"This is scarier than when Roger became the Pirate King."

"Yeah, when Roger became Pirate King, it affected the seas, but it was still far from us. But now, this is clearly a war that will sweep across the entire world."

"Sigh, who knows how many families will be torn apart and how many people will lose their homes after this war?"

"Yeah, ordinary people always suffer the most in war."

...

Similar sentiments were being expressed all around the world.

Sabaody Archipelago.

The square was packed with people.

The huge screen suspended in mid-air was broadcasting live footage from Marineford, thanks to the awakened Den Den Mushi.

From the changing scenes on the screen, you could see the crescent-shaped harbor and Marine Headquarters, along with the Marines standing solemnly in the headquarters' plaza.

Even through the broadcast, those watching could feel the heavy atmosphere hanging over Marineford.

"Tap, tap—"

A series of footsteps sounded from a high platform, echoing through the eerily silent broadcast.

As the footsteps grew closer, the Marines standing in formation on the square all raised their heads to look at the platform.

"It's Fleet Admiral Sengoku! And the Hero of the Marines, Garp!"

Under the gaze of everyone watching the broadcast, Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Marine Hero Garp stepped up to the platform. Beside them was Tsuru, Chief of staff, whom few people recognized.

Their appearance was like a calming pill, quickly soothing the Marines who had been a bit restless.

Under the gaze of all, Fleet Admiral Sengoku stepped forward on the platform.

Standing tall, with a loudspeaker Den Den Mushi in his hand, he calmly said, "I have something to announce to everyone…"

Countless eyes, both inside and outside the plaza, instantly focused on Sengoku on the platform.

"In the course of world development, the Navy must sever its political ties with the World Government and accept an independent and equal status, out of respect for public opinion, the reasons for the Navy's independence must be announced to the world.

The Navy believes in the following truth: all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.

To secure these rights, all of humanity united to establish the World Government, and the just powers of this government derive from the consent of the governed.

When any form of government seeks to deprive the people of their rights, the people have the right to alter or abolish it and to establish a new government.

This is why the Navy has chosen to break away from the World Government and declare war against the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.

The World Government has ignored the suffering of most people, allowing them to be oppressed by the nobility and to be enslaved, traded like livestock.

Among them, the Celestial Dragons are the worst. For centuries, these Celestial Dragons have sucked the fruits of everyone's labor like vampires.

High taxes and the annual Tribute to the Heavens offer nothing but the barest protection from the World Government.

People are highly tolerant of suffering, and even when they are squeezed to the limit, as long as they can barely survive, they will remain indifferent.

However, when a series of abuses of power and plundering occur, proving that the World Government and the Celestial Dragons are trying to turn people into livestock, completely at their mercy, then everyone has the right and obligation to overthrow this World Government and unite for a better future.

To prove the truth of these claims, I now present the following facts to all the people of the world—

The World Government refuses to approve laws most necessary for the protection of the public interest.

The World Government forbids slaves from resisting their masters and allows slave traders to turn humans and other races into slaves and sell them.

The World Government divides countries into member and non-member nations. They levy heavy taxes on member nations, but they ignore those who refuse to pay the Heavenly Tribute, no matter what atrocities occur within their borders, even erasing those nations at will.

The Navy has made many mistakes under the orders of the World Government. For this, I deeply apologize.

The World Government shields the Celestial Dragons, allowing them to kill ordinary people with impunity...

They...

...

I have always had a dream.

This dream is deeply rooted in my heart.

I dream that one day, everyone in this world will truly live in a way where all men are created equal.

I dream that one day, on the Red Line, humans will be able to sit down with the Fish-Men and all the other oppressed races and talk about their ideals together.

I dream that one day, all races can come together in unity to build a better world.

Therefore, we appeal to the highest sense of justice in the world, to state our intentions, to express our resolve, and to solemnly declare that the Navy will no longer fulfill its duty of allegiance to the World Government, and all relations between the Navy and the World Government are henceforth completely severed.

And we will go to war against the World Government and the Celestial Dragons! A war to liberate the entire world!"
