Bab 21: Chapter 21 Tesoro's Redemption: From Tyrant to Devout Follower
The Golden Emperor was confused and couldn't remember how Dragon Kingdom did it.
But one thing was certain: he would not use bloody means to enslave others.
He had made too many mistakes, and he needed to atone for his sins.
He was like a dying man, trying to find a way to rest his soul.
The entertainment empire was uneasy.
The Golden Emperor was an absolute tyrant, and a quiet tyrant was always more terrifying than a mad tyrant.
But then the unthinkable happened.
The Golden Emperor slowly walked back to his throne and issued a new order: liberate all slaves in the entertainment empire!
He gave them back their freedom and wrote off their debts.
He opened the treasury and gave all the Baileys to the victims.
They were the wealth creators, and they had been exploited for too long.
"I know that what I've done is not enough to make up for the harm I've caused you. If you want to kill me, go ahead. I won't fight back."
Tesoro threw countless gold daggers at the slaves.
He told them to open their hands and close their eyes, and to meet their deaths.
He said that he wanted to die, so that he could be reunited with Stella.
He said that it was time to repent for his sins.
Baccarat, Tanaka, and the other crews were shocked.
Everyone was stunned.
They wanted to stop Tesoro, but they could tell how sincere and determined he was.
The slaves were shocked.
Many people in the live chat were also complaining.
They thought Tesoro was crazy.
Tesoro was a powerful man, even stronger than some of the Four Emperors.
He was also one of the richest people in the world.
So it was hard to believe that he would just give up everything and seek his own death.
Some of the slaves were angry and wanted to kill Tesoro.
But others were afraid that if they went too far, Tesoro would come back and make their lives even worse.
In the end, most of the slaves decided to take as much money as they could and leave.
They didn't want to risk Tesoro changing his mind and coming after them.
The slaves ran out of the entertainment empire, shouting and celebrating their freedom.
Tesoro was still alive, even though he had been stabbed many times.
He was disappointed that he couldn't even kill himself, but he took it as a sign that he wasn't meant to die yet.
He still had to redeem himself for the sins he had committed.
He followed Stella's guidance, determined to make things right.
"I'm going to Dragon Kingdom to help the people there. I don't know if they'll accept me, but I'm going to try. You're free now. Take the wealth you deserve and do whatever you want with it."
Tesoro looked at his crew calmly.
He was like a devout believer who had seen through the world and was now only interested in pursuing his own personal salvation.
He had thrown away everything else, including his wealth and power, in order to achieve this goal.
Baccarat, Tanaka, and the other crews glanced at each other.
They knew that Tesoro was serious about this, and they didn't want to stand in his way.
So they made a decision.
Baccarat: "I was just a lowly slave back then, but Lord Tesoro bought me, and I'll always follow him!"
Mr. Tanaka: Lord Tesoro values my ability and use, and I'm happy to serve him. I'll continue to do so in the future!"
Crew: "I only like the feeling of being ravaged! Please, Lord Tesoro, don't abandon us..."
They all chose to continue following Tesoro.
"Okay, then let's set off to the East Blue Dragon Kingdom!!"
...
Gao Yang: "This is crazy! What a wonderful turn of events! I just sat back and did nothing, and now I have an extra pious believer who is second only to the Four Emperors in terms of combat power! He might even bring a lot of wealth with him! Can I win just by lying down?!"
"Gao Yang, you don't give yourself enough credit. When I first saw your country, I was really impressed. I can see that you're a good person, and others can see that too."
Artoria looked at Gao Yang seriously. She spoke in a tone that was unusually respectful
Gao Yang: "I don't feel that way though..."
Artoria: "That's because you take these things for granted. But in an era of strife, these are actually extremely rare qualities!"
Gao Yang: "Even if it's not true, it sounds really comfortable. Can I have an extra meal tonight?"
Artoria: "Sure! And you can have a snack too!
....
[Loan Usury King: Holy crap! Is that really happening? The Golden Emperor is just going to abandon everything and join the Dragon Kingdom like that?]
[Kaido: This is crazy! Tesoro, wake up, you idiot!]
[Big Mom: Why didn't something like this happen to me?]
[Ochoku: F*ck! I tried to get Tesoro to join forces with me to take down one of the Four Emperors, but he always refused. Now, because of Stella's speech, he's going to become someone else's dog! War is coming]
[Umit: Hmph, you guys don't know anything! I would be honored to follow my king! This is a great opportunity for Tezolo! He's getting a good deal!]
[Sengoku: If this is true, we'll have to re-evaluate the strength of the Dragon Kingdom.]
[Aokiji: The Golden Emperor is not to be underestimated.]
[Buggy: I also want to join the Dragon Kingdom! Do you still need people? cough cough... I definitely don't want to live a rich life!]
[Red hair:...]
The news of the Golden Emperor joining the Dragon Kingdom caused a huge stir in the world!
And just when everyone was still trying to process this news, another bombshell dropped: a pirate fleet was planning to attack the Dragon Kingdom!
[Kizaru: "It seems that the Dragon Kingdom has encountered an unexpected situation. A pirate fleet is planning to attack them."]
