Chapter 1762: Twenty Years Later II
?
The Crime Alliance learns something very important from their failures
And it is that from the very beginning, they should never have stepped into that other side of the ring.
When they were doing business with the World Government and the other world power, they were quite prosperous.
But once they reached to touch the power of the world, they gain worldwide condemnation.
Why?
Because the world only needed that one-person condemnation.
Once that one person condemns you, then the whole world must condemn you.
And who is this one person?
None other than the strongest person in the world Death Monarch
Death Monarch was the first that fight against the Crime Alliance.
Most people fight for interest. And most of the world powers fight each other for interest, for resources, for weapon
No one is like Death Monarch.
He simply didn''t like that crime organization gathers around and do more crime. At that time, the Crime Alliance was not quite like it is now.
They are the profiteers of wars; they are the lords that sell people and the manner of their crime are all mostly punishable by death even before the Fall.
Now, one could consider that the Crime Alliance has all sorts of criminals from the not so serious one to the more sinister and cruel crime.
At that time, the den of evil is basically what Crime Alliance was.
And because Death Monarch did not like this, he fights.
And he was merciless.
Just like those criminals was merciless against their victim, Death Monarch is even more merciless than them
Beast do not understand human words and they only understand beastly method.
Azief uses a beastly method to make Criem Alliance understood something.
If you wanted to be treated like humans, use human methods.
The other world powers was content in closing one eyes to the Crime Alliance until it be so powerful that it could even dictate the negotiations between them and the world powers.
But if you think Death Monarch fight against the Crime Alliance because of such concern, you would be disappointed.
Death Monarch has always been the kind of person that is not easily understood among those profit seeking rulers.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Because sometimes, he could just flip the board if he did not like how the chess pieces are fighting.
The reason why he could do this is simply because he has the pow to flip the chess board.
They were shocked at that time and they fear the sky. Fear for a red thunderbolt to smite them and they were like rats running all over.
They hide in the dark alley and they did not dare shows their face.
And then when Death Monarch is absent in the world, going to that other world to save Katarina, the Crime Alliance once again shows its face toward the world
And then they allied with the pirates, meet Kaiju, gain the Trident and gain another chance to subvert the world order
The second battle with the Crime Alliance is not only Death Monarch against the Crime Alliance. This time the whole world follows his lead.
Is it just because Death Monarch words?
No.
It is also because the Crime Alliance reach their hands to touch things that are not theirs. They overreach and touches thing that they should not touch
What they touch is the interest of the powerful.
They touch the interest of the world powers and make them wary of them
If the power did not fit the position, than that position could not be held for long
That is what happen to the Crime Alliance.
They expand their influence to carelessly and lead to a situation where they are besieged with all the seven great powers.
The reaction of the seven-world power would not be that explosive if they didn''t find a candidate like Kaiju and give him the power like Death Monarch
Ince the other world powers find out that the Crime Alliance has reached such a point that they could evenpete with Pandemonium, each of the six great powers all realized that this
small force now even has the power to threaten them
Hence, the twenty years suppression by the world powers.
Now, that they know their ce, they be even more low profile and they choose a different tactic
They wanted to be a spider that has its webs all over the world.
And with Death Monarch rarely making a move they manage to exert their influence in the
Seven Seas.
But they always knows when to not show themselves and they did not do things in mboyant way. Always in the dark, always in the shadow and always subtle.
If they dorge things, they would make sure that they already have a backup n for
survival.
This is the new direction of the Crime Alliance.
And because of this sessful strategy, in the twenty years since the war, The Red Table
manage to unite the criminal world and give them a direction.
And they have their ownws and code to deal with things.
And the world powers and the criminal underworld also seems to have reached an agreement.
The suppression of the world powers has abated a bit in thest five years
The dispute of the criminal underworld must not spill to innocent people
Once they do, and if that innocent people turns out to be one of the people of the seven great power, then what awaits the Crime Alliance would be a great suppressions.
Of course, this is just the warning of the world powers. The world powers did not have authority everywhere.
Not to mention, it is even harder tom maintain control over some regions that is millions of
miles away.
Most of the far border is basically like a different regime sometimes, with the officials there
acting like kings or ruler.
The control of the world powers is not as absolute as before.
Most have adopted centralized manner near the capital but decentralized nature in the
countryside.
Powerful families, ns and groups rises like mushroom in the world powers
Even Pandemonium could not avoid this.
In twenty years, many things had change even under the guise of peace. One of the most shocking thing to happen was that The World Government had its first election.
The candidate was from the Quorum Council members.
And in this shocking and unprecedented election to choose the ruler of the World
Government, the winner was Raymond.
It is not the fact that Raymond wins the election that shock the world. It is the fact that there
is an election in the first ce.
Hirate really did what he said he would do
Everyone expected that he is just giving lip service to people when he said that he would surely implement election for the position of the World Government leader
He not only promoted the election the transferal of power and authority of the President of
the World Government was transferred peacefully without any need for military intervention
A peaceful transition of power.
Everyone expected that when Raymond won, Hirate would not let it go.
But instead, everything was very anticlimactic.
There is no scene of two good friend breaking up and fighting for power
Instead, Hirate gives his farewell speech and the power was transferred to Raymond.
But then a more puzzling thing happens. Raymond was elected and be the Second President of the World Government.
Yet, he is also the Grand Commanded of the Unified Command of the World Government. The title is long but basically he has the power to mobilize every single unit that the World
Government has.
In the past, the President governs the officials and administer the world.
There is also the Supreme Judge that controls thew of the World Government and who is
also the head of the Quorum Council
Raymond controls the military; the security of the World Government and he was also the
Minister of War.
But now, that he is President, who else is supposed to hold that position?
No one could convince the soldiers like Raymond.
Not to mention, in the World Government, Raymond is the only Divine Comprehension
leveler.
Taking his military power could only be done by the President
Or the Quorum Council decree. But he is the President. And the Quorum Council still want to
lives.
And that is not the only problem of electing Raymond to the position of President.
Raymond is rarely on Earth.
He is usually in space.
Most of the time to monitors the sky.
Sometimes, to train there.
And when he does appears in the world, he would be in other parts of the world, either
hunting dangerous beast or fighting some fringe forces.
He is also exploring the world and sometimes, Raymond would go into separate dimension
and could not be contacted in those times
This is a person more suitable to be a great general than a ruler.
But the people had elected him because for the people of the World Government, if they could
not elect Hirate, they would elect Hirate most closest friend.
