Chapter 213 I refuse
Most of the people surrounding Jerry and his companions on the streets were undoubtedly the army of this kingdom.
But there are also some suspicious characters mixed in. Jerry guessed that most of them are members of the World Government CP organization.
Listening to the artillery fire and gunfire coming from the distance, Jerry was not sure whether these World Government personnel came to track them, or for the Revolutionary Army, or both.
Jerry felt that the current situation was a bit like the CP organization learned that they had arrived in the South China Sea and mobilized people to collect intelligence.
Then, by chance, they discovered traces of the revolutionary army's activities, which led to the United Nations Royal Army's first attack today, catching the people who had grown up with the revolutionary army off guard.
The fierce fighting now taking place just a few blocks away seemed to be only because the revolutionary army's strategy had always been to develop its power in secret.
In general, the revolutionary army actually hides behind the scenes, quietly guiding the people who are under brutal rule, inspiring and helping them to overthrow the original kingdom's regime.
The army captain rarely appears directly in battle unless it is a final decision or he has no other choice.
After all, the bounties on army commanders are not low, and they are all key targets of the World Government. If they show up casually, the World Government will probably send people to stop them before they even start causing trouble.
Jerry swept over with his Observation Haki and quickly identified which ones were ordinary king's troops and which ones were members of the CP organization based on their strength and the fragments of thoughts they revealed.
"Handsome guy, come here. I'll give you a chance to show your skills." Jerry waved to Cavendish.
"Here I come!" Cavendish appeared beside Jerry with a whoosh.
He was secretly proud of himself, "As expected, I've been a fan for ten years. No matter what the situation is, you never forget to praise me! Let me see what the loyal fans want."
Jerry glanced at Cavendish and thought to himself, "Easy to handle."
"That one, that one, and that one...reward each of them with a few lightning bolts." Jerry stretched out his hand and quickly pointed at the dozen or so CP members in the crowd who were acting very realistically and thought they had perfectly integrated into the army.
"Oh no! Run away!" Those who were pointed out felt their hearts tighten and their spines went cold. They shouted in panic and wanted to turn around and run away.
"Easy!" Cavendish nodded slightly, then locked onto the person he had named. His two index fingers were like two flying monkeys, turning into wildly leaping lightning and raised high into the sky: "This young master will punish you on behalf of thunder and lightning!"
As he shouted, thunder rumbled and screams came one after another.
Dazzling lightning struck in an instant, and all the members of the World Government pointed out by Jerry were knocked to the ground by several bolts of lightning in the blink of an eye.
"Clang!"
The deafening thunder had not yet faded away, and many weak-willed and timid people in the surrounding king's army were frightened to the point that their weapons dropped from their hands without knowing it.
"What...what is this!?"
"Are they monsters?"
"Damn it! Who gave the order for us to arrest them?"
"Yes...it's the captain. He has been struck by lightning..."
"Run!"
Frightened discussions continued to be heard in the crowd, and with a cry of escape coming from somewhere, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
This country has experienced many years of tyranny. Although there are still some people with some strength, most of the people in the army are good-for-nothings and have connections.
Normally, they could easily deal with civilians who dared not or were unable to resist, but now that they encountered an overwhelmingly powerful figure, their true colors were easily revealed.
If they had not won several street battles with civilians who had just joined the revolutionary army with the secret help of the CP, most of them would have given up and fled long ago.
However, just as the king's army was in turmoil, a civilian armed force appeared in the distance.
Different from the uniforms and weapons of the King's Army, these people in civilian clothes, some holding guns and some just holding shovels and hoes, but their faces all showed an extremely determined expression.
Seeing that the two armed forces were about to encounter and start a fierce battle, Jerry sighed, glanced at Kidd and the other man who had disappeared, and whispered to Cavendish: "Let's go."
"Yeah." Cavendish nodded and turned to keep up with Jerry.
Jerry thought it was better not to interfere in this kind of thing. He was not a revolutionary, nor was he the savior of Nika.
Moreover, he is charged with assaulting a Celestial Dragon and is being closely watched by the World Government. If he rashly gets involved in such an internal war, it might harm the country itself.
"Clap!"
Jerry's return journey suddenly stopped, causing Cavendish, who was caught up in his own fantasy, to almost bump into him.
"Excuse me, Dragon Fist Jerry." Lindbergh leaned in the narrow alley and greeted with a smile.
"Hello, are you from the Fur Tribe? Carrot should be very happy to meet fellow furries in a foreign land, right? But unfortunately..." Jerry looked at Lindberg, who was about the same height as Carrot, and shook his head slightly.
"Carrot? I know, it's the little rabbit sister on your ship, right?" Lindbergh obviously knew the information about the Kuroko Pirates.
He pushed himself up a little, stood up straight and continued:
"I'm sure you've guessed it. I'm Lindbergh, the Southern Army Captain of the Revolutionary Army. On behalf of our leader, I'd like to extend my greetings to you and ask if you're interested in joining us."
"If you are willing to join, we can pay some price and help you cover your tracks."
The incident in Alabasta caused a lot of controversy, and the Revolutionary Army naturally paid attention to it. Combined with the clues on the Golden Ship, they even dared to assert that the previous incident was most likely Jerry's work.
The Revolutionary Army is not reluctant to show goodwill to the enemies of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
"I appreciate your kindness, and please give my regards to your leader." Jerry said politely, shaking his head: "But I refuse. I am used to a free and easy life and have no intention of joining any organization."
Jerry can agree with the ideals of the revolutionary army, but their style of doing things is far from Jerry's.
Moreover, with his lazy personality, he can do some serious work occasionally, but he is absolutely unwilling to persist for a long time and do the things that the revolutionary army has been doing every day.
The revolutionary army had already anticipated this result. They did not force it, nor did they say anything wise like "those who don't join will be their enemies."
"Okay, I understand." Lindberg nodded slightly and said, "Anyway, we are friends, not enemies. Thank you for coming here and attracting the attention of the World Government's intelligence personnel."
"Although some people's whereabouts were exposed because of this, our operation this time can be regarded as a blessing in disguise..."
Before he could finish, Jerry raised his hand and said, "Haha, don't thank me. I haven't done anything yet. I just went to eat a few big bowls of wide noodles. Oh, it's curry udon noodles."
Seeing this, Lindbergh smiled lightly. The two sides exchanged a few polite words, said goodbye to each other, and parted ways.
When they were near the port, Jerry saw many figures lying crookedly along the way, and he knew that this was probably the work of Ace and his men.
"They also encountered war, but judging by the way these people look, they should have managed it."
As he spoke, Jerry and Cavendish looked at each other and soon arrived at the port.
