Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 298: Reforms

Various kings gathered in the huge newly built hall with magic. Alexander was on his seat at the high table, facing all the kings. Many of them had just recently signed the paper to join the UKS.

He started to speak, "Okay, first we will have all the old World Nobles trialed. Bring them in."

His words stopped all the murmuring. Soon all the 60 World Nobles were brought in. They were put in sea stone chains.

He started judging them one by one based on the records he found in Mary Geoise. For example, there was a guy who was known to kill his slaves while sexually assaulting them. He was also known to have the most slaves in his 120 years of life. About three million.

The whole proceedings were being shown live to the world. People felt angry and enraged listening to the crimes. For so long they lived oblivious to such happenings in a world they thought was peaceful.

Most of the Celestial Dragons had one or two weird fetishes that made their pleas for mercy look pointless. He sentenced all of them to death. There was no point in prolonging it.

Once that was done he decided to talk to the kings. It was still being shown live. Transparency in governance was one of the major points in keeping evil people away from gaining power.

"Okay, I called you all here not just for this execution. As you know, I am the current head of the government but I can't stay that forever. Someday my time will come when I will leave the world.

"So, I want to start a system in which no ambitious people like Im or the elders can come and take over the world. I want to create a world in which everyone is equal. A king, a prince, a soldier, a farmer, a housewife, a child. They should all be equal in the eyes of the law. No one should get preferential treatment just because they were lucky enough to be born in a better family."

Then he dropped the bomb, "That is why I am abolishing the rule of monarchy from the world and a new form of democratic government will be elected. A government of the people, by the people, for the people"

Most of the Kings and Queens in the hall started causing an uproar. But there were a few exceptions, like the King Nefertari Cobra, Riku Doldo III, and few others. They probably understood what he was doing.

"SILENCE, I will only ask you one question and answer me truthfully, can you guarantee that your grandkids or great-grandkids will be good and rule your kingdom justly? Will they think about the people and not exploit them? Can you guarantee that?" He asked loudly.

Little by little, they all started to stop shouting. Many of them probably remembered their spoiled children or grandchildren.

"I know you cannot guarantee it, I know it. This is why I am doing this. With this election system, at least the people responsible for the kingdom will be elected by the people with elections happening every 5 years.

"Don't worry, I am not telling you to start living in the streets. You will just stop having any authority over the kingdom and its government. You can still own a few good businesses to sustain your good life. You will be allowed to select any 5 properties in the kingdom to own. Others will become public property.

"Each Kingdom's elected President will sit in the UKS Parliament and represent his kingdom/country. Among those 200 presidents, 10 higher representatives will be elected from among the presidents, but four of these seats will be reserved, one for Fish-men, one for the Skypians, one for Minks of the Mink Kingdom, and one for the Giants of Elbaf."

Alexander always liked this form of hierarchical government because he then had fewer places to curse. As long as he cursed some high positions, it would make sure the Government flourishes for as long as he wanted.

He had changed the number of Kingdoms from 170 to 200 because many new ones either had come into existence or some countries that weren't a member till now joined him. For example, Wano.

Alexander was also not telling them that even if they didn't agree he would still do it. The world had been stagnant for 700 years and he was not going to tolerate any more incompetence.

He also understood the greatest problem in the world. That was the difficulty in traveling and communication. For this, he was going to introduce electric engines. Though the electricity would be generated with environmentally friendly means. Vegapunk was fast to develop many things for that.

He had even asked Shirahoshi to tell all the seakings to not attack any ship in the calm belt. Humans were too small to fill their stomachs anyway and they probably attacked just for the heck of it.

"Okay, you will find a document in front of you, sign it if you agree to my proposal. If you don't then you are free to go to that room and wait for me. I will talk with you there later." He announced.

The first one to jump and go to the room was Sterry. The dumb guy didn't even know that his Goa Kingdom was actually run by Douglas and he was just a king in name. But others gained confidence seeing him and another twenty kings and queens left.

Unknown to them that Ragnarok was waiting for them there. He would give them a little well deserved beating and get them to sign up, then there was Dobby responsible for obliviating them from the memory of the beating.

Back in the hall, once all the monarchs signed it, Alexander stood up and clapped, "This is a big moment in history that will be written with golden ink. I declare today as Liberation day. The day when we all became equal, a day when we received true freedom. This day will be celebrated every year from now on. Thank you all for agreeing to do this. Your people must be rejoicing right now."

...

In the Goa Kingdom,

Roger, Ace, Garp, and Dragon had come back. Dragon wanted to see his wife that he had not seen since he and Luffy were being hunted.

Even after faking his death, he didn't dare to come to her. Thankfully the world government didn't know much about him which was why he was able to start the Revolutionary army.

Roger, Ace, and Rouge also had a cute reunion. It was Rouge's birthday so Roger hastened their return. Ace even brought her flower, though he was just trying not to receive a beating from her.

After their reunion, they all gathered at the town center to see the meeting happening in Marineford.

Roger and Dragon were happily sitting with their wives, they finally took a relaxing breath after being hunted or keeping their identities secret for so many years.

Garp and Ace sat together and drank.

"I can't believe he made all of them sign it." Ace exclaimed upon seeing the historic event.

Garp laughed, "Hahaha, that Sterry must have gotten a good beating."

Douglas, who was laying on a carpet nearby scoffed, he also had dark circles under his eyes, he had been working overtime since Archangel Michael came, the man was just too strict and recited the code of heaven at every mistake of his.

"That damn Sterry, even I beat him up once. He had come to me asking for money." He said.

"Well, I guess the Goa Kingdom will not have a royal family anymore because Sterry is too dumb to run a business and will probably go bankrupt in a week," Roger added.

Douglas again scoffed, "huh, you all are overestimating him, he'd probably lose everything in a week. I can even make it an hour if I help him."

Suddenly Berry came flying to Douglas, "Run Douglas, Michael is coming for your lessons."

Douglas' face lost all colors. He didn't wait for anything and ran away to his hideout in the jungle. Once he was gone, Berry took his place and lazily laid down on the carpet.

Soon Michael came, "Did you see Douglas?"

Everyone stayed quiet. But soon someone ratted him out and it was the person they least expected it from,

Berry lazily pointed his claws to the jungle, "He's hiding there, in a hollow tree about three hundred meters in."

Michael left. Everyone was shocked by Berry's treachery. But it seemed heavens were angry with him and he received his punishment soon.

Amy apparated beside Berry and pulled his furry check, "Why did you skip today's classes Berry? Grandpa told me to be strict with your studies, now let's go. You will learn integration today."

Berry squirmed and beat his claws on the ground but he was still dragged away.

"Hahaha... it never gets boring with them," Rouge smilingly remarked. Everyone else nodded in agreement.

They all had grown too attached to the Universe family.
