The likelihood of getting the answer right is low, but the consequences of getting it wrong are not worth it. If they answer incorrectly, not only will they lose the opportunity for that particular question, but they will also lose the chance for the next question. It's not worth the risk.
After discussing for a while, the Arlong and his henchmen decided to let Luffy and his crew answer first. If they answered incorrectly, there would only be two options left, and they should be able to choose the correct one.
However, at this moment, Luffy felt a bit lost. If he was asked about something he knew, he could handle it, but if he had to choose from unknown questions, it would be difficult for him.
"Ah... I don't know either!" Luffy said, holding his head. But he was already happy knowing that Sabo was alive, which was more important than anything else. Answering questions or not, as long as he was happy.
"Luffy, don't be discouraged. You know there will be rewards if you answer correctly! Don't you want the rewards? Come on, cheer up and think about it!" Usopp shook Luffy's shoulder and said. He had seen what the rewards were from the previous live broadcast, and they were life potions! They were priceless!
He never expected to encounter such a big occasion, and Usopp was extremely excited.
"Aaaah Aaaah, let me think about it." Luffy sat cross-legged on the ground, holding his chin, and thought, "Sabo didn't meet Shanks, and when I met Sabo, Shanks had already left the East Blue. He probably couldn't have saved Sabo.
Unless someone else saved Sabo, and later Sabo joined Shanks' pirate crew, which I've talked about with Sabo before.
Also, Grandpa knows about Sabo. If Sabo joined the Marines, he would definitely have told me. And Sabo promised to become a pirate with me, so he wouldn't join the Marines.
As for the Revolutionary Army, I really don't know what that is. I just found out today that I have a dad, and this is all I know. I don't know anything else even if you ask me."
Luffy scratched his hair, feeling a bit of a headache. He hated having to use his brain and think.
So, Zoro immediately looked at Luo Ke and said, "Our answer is D: Dragon, as the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army."
Luo Ke nodded. "Correct answer. Straw Hat Pirates earn another point. You have answered two questions correctly so far.
When Sabo was ten years old, he witnessed the royal nobles of the Goa Kingdom burning and slaughtering the people of the Gray Terminal to welcome the Celestial Dragons. Due to his disgust for the Goa Kingdom, Sabo decided to leave the country.
However, on the day he set sail, he encountered the Celestial Dragons who came to visit. The Celestial Dragons, upon seeing Sabo piloting his small boat, had the idea to have some fun by trying out the rocket launcher in their hands. They fired a rocket that sank Sabo's boat.
Fortunately, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon, was present at the scene. He saved Sabo and brought him back to be trained by the Revolutionary Army. However, due to the bombardment, Sabo lost his memory, and Dragon didn't know Sabo's identity either.
Due to his exceptional talent and intelligence, Sabo became Dragon's disciple. By the age of twenty, he had become the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army and one of its core members."
Another scandal about the World Government was exposed.
Luo Ke's words immediately caused a huge uproar around the world.
The royal nobles of the Goa Kingdom burned and destroyed the slums to welcome the Celestial Dragons?!
The Celestial Dragons actually fired a rocket at a ten-year-old child just for their own amusement?!
They can actually commit such evil acts.
When people heard about this incident, they found it hard to believe. The actions of both the royal nobles of the Goa Kingdom and the Celestial Dragons have completely extinguished their humanity.
Such behavior would warrant a public trial.
However, it has been ten years since this incident occurred, and they still know nothing about it.
Not only do they know nothing, but the royal nobles and the Celestial Dragons who committed these acts face no consequences whatsoever.
What about the Marines?
What about justice?
The civilians who know about this suddenly erupted in endless anger.
However, apart from their anger, they can do nothing. A deep sense of helplessness lingers in their hearts. Neither the royal nobles nor the world nobles, the Celestial Dragons, are within their reach as mere civilians.
After their anger subsides, they fall silent. This silence stems from the helplessness and deep despair they feel toward the world.
It turns out that even the justice of the Marines is unequal among individuals.
...
Meanwhile, in the Marine Headquarter , their expressions became particularly unpleasant. The revelation of such matters undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to the Marines' reputation.
Warlords felt extremely infuriated. They wholeheartedly manage the Marines, maintaining order in the world and ensuring that justice prevails.
However, the nobles of these allied countries and the Celestial Dragons have now slapped them in the face.
Where can they hide their faces?
How can people around the world still believe in the justice of the Marines?
What's even more infuriating is that they have to cover up for these individuals.
He really wishes he could capture all these guys and throw them into Impel Down. However, he doesn't have the authority to deal with them...
On the contrary, if someone dares to harm them, he has to turn around and protect them.
This situation always makes Warlords feel that his sense of justice is being insulted. However, he also realizes soberly that if he wants justice to prevail in the world, he must rely on the World Government as an organization.
So, in this conflicted state of mind, Warlords endures.
This is the shared sentiment among many Marines.
Upon hearing this, many Marine officers in Marine Headquarters felt disgusted, as if they had swallowed flies. Moreover, many of them were even relieved. The ugly deeds of these pests have been exposed, allowing more people to see their true faces.
In the future, they would avoid getting involved with them to prevent getting burned.
...
In Mariejois, the Seat of Power, the Five Elders frowned deeply as they listened.
This is a massive disgrace to the face of the World Government. To tarnish the Celestial Dragons is to tarnish the World Government itself. This is a live broadcast for people all over the world to witness.
While they may not care about these commoners, they cannot allow the image of the World Government in their eyes to be damaged. Otherwise, it would be extremely detrimental to the World Government's rule.
