Chapter 168: The Dawn of the Revolutionary Army

A deafening roar rang out and pierced the thick walls of the Kingdom of Scrub's palace.

"What happened?!"

The king jumped up, and the nobles turned in terror when they saw a guard running in.

"Your Majesty! The city gate has fallen!" The guard knelt on the ground and shouted in a trembling voice.

"No, it cannot be." The king felt everything become blurry and his body trembled. The battle cries outside seemed to become louder.

"Your Majesty, we have to go!" An old white-haired duke urged, waking the king.

"Ah, yes, yes, let's go to the port!"

Just then, the sound of a Den-Den Mushi was heard.

The king, who had started running, hurriedly took out the Den-Den Mushi from his pocket.

"Hello, can you hear me, King Scrab?"

"Yes, yes, yes, are you from the World Government? Are you from the Navy? Where are you now?"

"We are the police from the Ministry of Public Security and have arrived above the kingdom. Because of the chaos outside, for your safety, we suggest not to run around and just wait in the palace."

"Okay, okay, I won't go out, I won't go out!" The king nodded quickly, a relieved smile on his face.

In the sky above the palace, under a night sky, a large shadow appeared silently.

Suddenly, several black dots emerged from the shadow, quickly spreading throughout the kingdom.

"Kill the king's dogs!"

"Take down the nobles!"

"We are the revolutionary army!"

Thousands of young men dressed in patched clothing, armed with rifles, swords, and even pitchforks and clubs, fought against the soldiers.

The battlefield where the two sides fought was centered on the broken city gate.

[Boom! Boom! Boom!]

At that moment, several black shadows fell from the sky, creating waves of energy that knocked down everyone around them. The movement attracted the attention of soldiers and rebels.

In the next moment, green objects shot out of the dust that the shadows had created when they landed.

They were so fast that in the eyes of many people, they were just a flash of green shadows, and the targeted person was entangled before he could react.

"Ah, what is this?"

"Let me go!"

"It's so noisy~" From the smoke and dust emerged a blonde man with a height of 2.5 meters.

"I am Gaspardy, superintendent of the military police of the Security Division of the World Government. Remember my name carefully, because I do not have a good temper!"

After these words, he raised his right arm, which transformed into a mass of green gelatin, and in the blink of an eye it hardened into a sharp blade.

Gaspardy was not in a good mood lately.

If it weren't for the Ministry of Public Security's strict order that no one is allowed to kill easily even if the other party is a criminal, he would have wanted to pierce the bodies of this trash directly.

He was fine at the G-0 base under Reverse Mountain as a member of the Navy but was transferred to the police on a simple order.

Although the rank of police superintendent is equivalent to that of a senior officer in the navy, this was clearly a promotion, but his dream was to become a navy admiral. This was no reason for joy for him!

Meanwhile...

Elsewhere on the battlefield, many citizens and soldiers staggered and collapsed on the ground, asleep and with red faces. "Hiss... This wonderful wine aroma is really irresistible!"

"Hello everyone, I am a military police officer of the Ministry of Police, my name is Artur Bacca, and my police rank is Senior Inspector. I wish you all a good sleep tonight, and remember to have another drink tomorrow morning~"

[Boom!]

A wave of dark, reddish air spread like a tsunami, knocking down the combatants in its path, covering two-thirds of the battlefield.

The soldiers and citizens at the edges stood paralyzed, staring dumbfounded at the ground covered in bodies.

"Is that Busoshoku Haki? How impressive!" Artur exclaimed in amazement, while Gaspardy let out a snort.

"Charlotte Katakuri... is nothing more than the son of a pirate!"

Gaspardy felt that Katakuri should not be directly granted the rank of Senior Superintendent, despite his undoubted strength. After all, he was a born pirate!

And he, Gaspardy, was a true son of the navy!

At this moment, the hurried sound of approaching footsteps could be heard.

Katakuri looked towards the direction of the city gate.

A group of police officers burst into the palace. Without waiting for orders, they began confiscating weapons and arresting citizens and soldiers who were not unconscious.

"Hey, what are you doing?! I'm a guard of this kingdom!"

"Catch those rebels, they are the criminals!"

The soldiers of the kingdom's army complained when they saw that they were also going to be arrested.

But the police did not bother to speak, they raised the butts of their rifles and hit those who resisted, before handcuffing them.

Katakuri, accompanied by a dozen officers, entered the great hall of the palace, where the king and the nobles were waiting.

"They're finally here! Great! How's the situation outside? I don't seem to hear any noise." The King hurriedly greeted and asked with a smile.

"I am Charlotte Katakuri, a senior superintendent of the Military Police Bureau of the Ministry of Police. I am here to maintain public order here, investigate the riot and arrest the relevant offenders under the order of Minister Dragon. This is my police ID." Katakuri, with a completely professional attitude, showed his ID to the king.

"Okay, okay, thank you!" The King nodded repeatedly.

"First of all, the riot outside has been suppressed by us. Next, please tell me the information you know."

While Katakuri spoke with the king, outside, Artur and Gaspardy, along with the ordinary policemen, interrogated the rebels and soldiers.

Three hours later.

Dragon in the Sabaody Archipelago received a call from Katakuri in the office.

"Katakuri, how's the situation?" Dragon spoke as he continued working on his documents.

"The riot has been resolved. The main reason was that the King ordered the shooting of two leaders of the demonstration."

"The demands of these civilians are to return the confiscated Den-Den Mushi and that the extra Heavenly Tribute be eliminated, suggesting that it be paid only from the kingdom's normal tax revenues, as proposed by the World Government."

After hearing this, Dragon put down the documents and asked in a deep voice: "Then how did you handle it?"

"I arrested the King and all high-ranking nobles for the crime of disobeying the World Government. We will take them to Enies Lobby to be tried by the Supreme Court."

Dragon was very satisfied after hearing this. Although the current laws are improving, they have not yet involved the power of the king in the kingdom.

That is to say, the king is not guilty of executing his own citizens.

But if he disregards the World Government's proposal, it can be regarded as disrespecting the World Government, and it is also equivalent to disrespecting the world's nobles, that is, the Celestial Dragons.

This matter can be big or small, depending on whether the World Government takes it seriously.

"In addition, I think there are three strange things about this riot." Katakuri continued on the other side of the Den-Den Mushi.

"First, the citizens were armed with a large number of firearms and swords of unknown origin."

"Secondly, these people called themselves the 'Revolutionary Army'. It is said that the first people to mention it were the two leaders who were shot by the king before, but they did not die on the spot."

"Instead, they were seriously injured and then taken back to the civilian area and died from their injuries that same night."

"Lastly, none of the citizens seemed to have the skill of a master swordsman, but they still managed to break through an eight-inch-thick solid steel door."

"I examined the cut, it was very clean, it was definitely caused by a powerful cut."

Dragon frowned. He had the feeling that this clandestine group could become the main adversary of the Police in the future.

"Inciting citizens and using them to overthrow kings and nobles... What a despicable method. This must have caused the deaths of countless people and destroyed many families."

"We must not let them go! Hunt down the Revolutionary Army with all our strength!"

Maybe there really is something called destiny in this world.

In the end, the revolutionary army appeared.

Perhaps, it is the inevitable challenge that the World Government must face.

However, in this timeline, the first to be challenged is precisely the founder of the revolutionary army from another timeline.

Monkey D. Dragon!

Because the matter did not get too out of control, and the revolt was put down in time by Katakuri and the others, it was not reported to the highest level. Instead, it was handled by the Police Department.

...

Red Earth Continent.

Demon Slayer World Dimensional Gate Base.

A group of people dressed in black uniforms and armed with swords slowly emerged from the gate.

They were members of the Demon Slayer Corps, led by the Ubuyashiki family, including about twenty blacksmiths who forged Nichirin swords and ten doctors from the Butterfly Mansion.

There were also hundreds of support personnel from the Kakushi unit. Although these people had no talent as swordsmen or special abilities, most of them were relatives and friends of the members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Thus, the number of people in this delegation reached a thousand.

This was the first time that the World Government brought so many people from another world.

It should be noted that there were three non-human beings in the middle of the crowd, followed discreetly by the Hashira, observing them with an impassive expression.

Tamayo, Yushiro y Nezuko.
