"My mission is also complete."
"My Revolutionary is being eyed by Blackbeard, shouldn't you offer some tangible compensation."
"For instance, those Senzu Beans that can instantly restore all injuries."
The battle had, in a manner of speaking, ended.
However, this was merely a temporary reprieve.
Nevertheless, for the Xuanwu Navy, it was a victory.
Before long, the Four Seas would be completely conquered by the Xuanwu Navy.
Without the intervention of the World Government, their Revolutionary Army could do many things openly.
The people would live and work in peace, no one would become a pirate, and the seas would return to tranquility.
The opportunities for the World Government to exploit and oppress the populace would diminish with the constant growth of the Revolutionary Army and the Xuanwu Navy.
The East Blue was now the best proof of this.
Without the World Government's exploitation, without the Navy's harassment, without the tyrant's extortion and deceit, the East Blue was now a scene of harmony.
"Here you go."
Benedict, without any hesitation, tossed five Senzu Beans to Dragon.
With Benedict's current hundreds of thousands of Justice Points, a few Senzu Beans were nothing at all.
Dragon had not expected Benedict to so readily agree to such a lavish request.
Yes, it was indeed lavish.
The effect of these Senzu Beans could save lives.
Five Senzu Beans represented five lives.
"Your actions need to be swift and decisive."
"If you are unable to do so, we can also offer assistance."
"I do not wish for too many civilian casualties, otherwise, local administrations will also intervene."
"The Xuanwu Navy ultimately safeguards the lives and property of the people."
Benedict did not look at Dragon but at the soldiers who were processing the battlefield and salvaging bodies.
This was perhaps a form of unspoken understanding.
Both the World Government and the Xuanwu Navy had sent people to clear the battlefield, but no conflict ensued.
This was basic dignity, as well as respect for the deceased.
Dragon, hearing this, fell silent for a moment and said, "Yes, we will be careful."
The Xuanwu Navy was undergoing massive expansion, constantly encroaching upon the territory controlled by the World Government.
The Revolutionary Army was also rapidly expanding.
However, unlike the Xuanwu Navy's crackdown on dark forces and pirates, this expansion involved overthrowing tyranny through oppressive rule, continuously promoting peace, upholding justice, and rescuing people from dire straits.
In other words, wherever tyranny oppressed the populace, there the Revolutionary Army would be found.
However, while it was easy for the Revolutionary Army to overthrow tyranny, it was difficult to establish a ruler who could bring welfare to the people.
This required shaping an individual's image, enriching their capabilities, strengthening their authority, and supplementing and expanding their military forces, among other things.
There were too many aspects involved.
If a king ascended to the throne without capable individuals, that country would still be mired in trouble.
And during this time, to accelerate the pace and keep up with the Xuanwu Navy, as well as to avoid accidents, the cadres of the Revolutionary Army had dispersed, leading to clear deficiencies in their actions and planning.
This had already resulted in many innocent civilians being killed by the armies of local regimes.
"Alright, you are a corps commander of the Revolutionary Army, so I cannot interfere too much in your affairs."
"I just hope that no pirates are driven to the seas by you."
Benedict said lightly.
With that, Benedict used the Flying Thunder God Technique to depart.
Dragon, watching Benedict disappear, pondered for a moment, sighed, and then also transformed into a gust of wind and left.
As the Revolutionary Army's scope widened, numerous problems had arisen.
New World, Cyborg Research Base.
At this moment, it was experiencing a one-sided slaughter and destruction.
The actions of Daozhi, Jing Ke, and Yasuo were extremely swift.
As they fought their way through, the Navy and CP organizations guarding the facility were unable to resist.
When the alarms blared throughout the entire base, news of the cyborg test base being attacked quickly reached Kong, and the Five Elders.
Kong sat in his office, having experienced too much today, to the point where he didn't know how to vent his emotions.
As such, upon hearing that the cyborg test base had been destroyed, he showed no reaction.
Destroyed?
It was good that it was destroyed.
The experiments conducted there were inherently disgraceful.
"Marshal, the ones destroying the test base are the Xuanwu Navy's 'Phantom Squad'."
The voice came again from the Den Den Mushi.
Kong, hearing this, his originally placid gaze instantly widened.
Kong's breathing became somewhat rapid as he asked, "Are you sure?"
"Did they carry recording Den Den Mushi?"
"Did they retain any data?"
The voice from the Den Den Mushi replied, "We don't know. By the time we reacted, more than half of the base had already been destroyed."
"Investigate, or intercept them. Use whatever means necessary, no matter how many people die, you must destroy all the data they possess," Kong shouted in a frenzy.
If these cyborg test bases were exposed, it would be a huge blow to the prestige of both the Xuanwu Navy and the World Government.
"As much as possible!"
The Den Den Mushi call ended. Kong sat on his chair, his expression somewhat haggard, feeling as if his body had been drained.
The emergence and expansion of the Xuanwu Navy had severely threatened the Navy Headquarters' plans. In the Four Seas, apart from this battle, the Xuanwu Navy was almost everywhere.
The World Government had lost control of the Four Seas.
Naturally, the Navy had as well.
"Brr brr!"
The sound of a Den Den Mushi rang out again.
Kong was somewhat disgusted.
However, he still picked up the call.
"Reporting, Marshal, Base 734 suffered devastating damage. The perpetrator was Xuanwu Navy Marshal Benedict."
"Reporting, Base 735 suffered devastating damage, the perpetrator was Benedict..."
"Reporting..."
Kong answered several calls in succession. Most of the Den Den Mushi on his desk had rung.
The clamorous sounds echoed in Kong's ears, terribly annoying.
Upon learning of Benedict's appearance, Kong knew that Benedict would absolutely not miss this opportunity.
Only Benedict possessed that unfathomable movement speed to appear in multiple bases repeatedly.
What made Kong even more chilled was how the Xuanwu Navy discovered these secret bases. Even within the organization, very few people knew about them.
This time, the Navy would face an unprecedented political and reputational crisis.
This was a fact, not a joke or a false accusation.
After Benedict had consecutively destroyed four cyborg test bases, he had also immediately exposed the dirt, bloodiness, and inhumanity of the cyborg test bases.
This broadcast was then rapidly disseminated throughout the Four Seas via live streaming.
In the New World, there were also various means.
The most common among them were newspapers carried by news birds.
