Seeing Dragon's glowing eyes, filled with curiosity, like hope seeing a companion in the darkness.
Ye Chen instantly understood that Dragon likely hadn't formed the Revolutionary Army yet, and might only have ideas in his mind without having acted on them.
"Ahem." Ye Chen coughed a few times, looking calmly at Dragon, and said, "What are your thoughts on the World Government?"
He didn't explain the meaning of the Revolutionary Army. Instead, he questioned Dragon, who was already a Vice Admiral, about the significance of the World Government's existence. If Dragon was already dissatisfied with the World Government, Ye Chen could preemptively influence him and slowly explain the Revolutionary Army.
Perhaps Dragon would even consider him a companion, and he might even become one of the founders of the Revolutionary Army.
However, he wasn't interested in the Revolutionary Army. But if he could get Dragon to form the Revolutionary Army earlier, allowing it to emerge prematurely, it would probably give the World Government a headache.
If Dragon didn't agree with him, that was impossible.
As a successor of the proletariat, Ye Chen had plenty of information like that in his mind.
Dragon looked at the calm Ye Chen, his expression solemn. Ye Chen was a world-renowned Great Pirate, while he was a Marine Vice Admiral. Their positions were inherently opposed.
Now, Ye Chen was asking him about the meaning of the World Government's existence. If it were anyone else, Dragon definitely wouldn't have spoken, and might even have made a move.
But the word "Revolutionary Army" from Ye Chen's mouth deeply attracted him, as if that word was the meaning he had always pursued.
After a long time, Dragon still didn't speak, lost in thought, his eyes flickering, pondering something. Ye Chen also remained silent, just quietly observing Dragon.
He knew in his heart that Dragon would definitely speak. Dragon himself held a questioning attitude towards the rules of the World Government.
Otherwise, the Revolutionary Army wouldn't exist in the future.
After a while, Dragon, who seemed to have made up his mind, looked up at Ye Chen and said, "The World Government is autocratic, high and mighty, and unworthy of owning this world."
If Dragon's words were to reach the ears of the Marine higher-ups, they would probably be shocked to death. Because Dragon had always been a highly reputable general in the Marines, and his strength was also formidable.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been promoted to Marine Vice Admiral at such a young age, and a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral at that.
Garp had privately said that having a son like Dragon made his life worthwhile. One could imagine how proud and satisfied Garp was of Dragon.
However, it was this model general, Dragon, who was now engaged in a profound discussion with Ye Chen, a Great Pirate from the New World with blood on his hands, talking about the various shortcomings of the World Government,
criticizing the unreasonableness of the Celestial Dragons' existence, and condemning the World Government's autocratic evil.
All sorts of shortcomings of the World Government, in their discussion, almost made the World Government a heinous hegemony.
"Such an organization cannot exist; it must be overthrown," Dragon said with a determined expression during their discussion.
It was as if everyone on the warship had been knocked out by Ye Chen's Conqueror's Haki. Otherwise, such treasonous words would have brought divine punishment.
"Ye Chen, I truly admire you. Your ideas are incredibly advanced. Listening to what you said, I immediately felt like I found a kindred spirit."
Dragon's eyes gleamed as he stared intently at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen felt a shiver down his spine. Dragon's gaze was too terrifying, looking at him as if a pervert saw a beautiful woman, wanting to devour him.
Seeing this, Ye Chen quickly stepped back a few paces.
He wouldn't flinch even against Kaido, but Dragon's gaze actually scared him.
However, it was understandable that Dragon would have such an expression. After all, what Ye Chen told him were principles of institutions that existed in his previous life, and he had simply copied them over.
For example, rulers being elected by popular vote to prevent autocracy, and some pension and medical plans from his previous life were also copied by Ye Chen. These things didn't mean much to Ye Chen, as he had lived in that world for decades.
But Dragon was different. He had never heard of these ideas, and after listening to Ye Chen's words, it was as if he had found an oasis in the desert.
Moreover, in Ye Chen's description, compared to the current world, the world Ye Chen spoke of was simply a perfect fantasy world.
"I'm a little confused. Since you have such ideas, why don't you implement them?" Dragon asked, throwing out his doubts after listening for a long time.
According to his thoughts, with Ye Chen's ideas and strength, he could already start implementing them.
However, from Ye Chen's words, he could tell that Ye Chen didn't seem to have this intention.
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment. Although he had theoretical knowledge, he clearly understood that these kinds of things were not very suitable for him.
Or rather, he couldn't execute them.
Because he simply wasn't cut out for it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have failed to become a civil servant back then.
At this moment, Ye Chen pretended to be profound and mysterious, saying to Dragon, "It's not that I don't want to do it, but one person's strength is not enough. To accomplish such a feat requires the efforts of countless people to succeed, and I think you are more suitable than I am."
This wasn't Ye Chen lying. He truly thought Dragon was more suitable. It could be seen from the original work that Dragon managed to develop the Revolutionary Army to such an extent in just over ten years.
From this, Dragon's ability could be seen.
Dragon was stunned for a moment upon hearing Ye Chen's words. His body felt as if an energy had been injected into it. With a determined expression, Dragon said to Ye Chen, "Thank you for your expectation. I will definitely develop the Revolutionary Army and gather more comrades to overthrow this unreasonable organization, the World Government."
Ye Chen nodded, his eyes sparkling with appreciation.

In the Fleet Admiral's office, Sengoku was handling documents.
Just then, the Den Den Mushi on his desk suddenly rang. "What? You said Ye Chen entered Headquarters on a Marine battleship?" Sengoku was startled, then shouted into the Den Den Mushi, "Why wasn't I informed beforehand?"
"Dragon... Vice Admiral... just informed us."
As the voice came through, Garp, who was sitting nearby eating rice crackers, suddenly froze, and the rice cracker in his hand fell.
When did Dragon get involved with Ye Chen?
