Given the despicable things they've done in the past, they have countless enemies, and many people would love to tear them apart.
In this situation, hoping to escape unscathed and avoid being thoroughly investigated by the Imperial Guard for past crimes is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Now, Oka can only sit in his office, hoping for a lucky break, and constantly cursing Arin, who changed everything.
That damned Yama Emperor!
As he cursed inwardly, a guard unit stormed the garrison headquarters, quickly identified the target, and then formally arrested him.
The leading squad surrounded Oka, their actions clearly defined.
Oka's expression changed and he tried to resist, but he was decisively captured by the captain and several soldiers.
Not only Euroca, but most of the guards were arrested and taken to prison, their faces ashen.
Oka's apprentice, Seru Ubiquitas, was at a loss as she watched this scene. She tried to explain to the guards that her master was a good person, but was ignored.
Therefore, he could only watch anxiously as Oka and the others were taken away.
She had also heard of the infamous Yama Emperor, who showed no mercy to evildoers.
During this period, the evildoers executed will have their crimes made public before their execution; they are all evildoers for whom no amount of torture can atone.
Seryu had been at the execution ground for the past few days, and he was completely convinced by the actions of the Yama Emperor, regarding him as an idol.
"Why would a good person like Master be arrested? There must be some misunderstanding."
Seryu refused to accept the truth and murmured softly.
On the day of Euchar's execution, he heard the crimes the other had committed.
Her expression was stiff; she stared blankly as Oka's head fell to the ground, her heart filled with confusion and despair. Her worldview was completely shattered.
Her teacher, who taught her righteousness, was himself so filthy and evil.
Criminals who were previously considered villains turned out to be wrongly accused and were relentlessly hunted down by her, eventually dying in prison with nowhere to go.
What has she been doing all these years?
Looking at the Teigu Kobi, which had been unexpectedly awakened by her own sense of justice a few days ago, she felt extremely ridiculous and despicable.
He fell helplessly to the ground, his pupils filled with emptiness and regret, and then tears streamed down his face.
Justice itself has tarnished the word.
When Seryu showed signs of self-destruction and prepared to wash away his sins with his death.
Suddenly, they heard the Emperor's order to summon the Imperial Arms Users.
Upon hearing this, Seryu reacted with a fanatical expression, as if grasping at a lifeline.
If one's past actions were wrong, then the Yama Emperor must represent justice.
That emperor could not possibly be wrong.
If I follow in his footsteps, I might be able to atone for my past sins.
This time, she will not repeat the same mistake.
.......
Yalin was unaware that he had inexplicably gained a fanatical follower and was currently tallying up the wealth that had been confiscated.
As the saying goes, once Heshen fell from power, Emperor Jiaqing was well-fed.
This minister, Ernest, was even worse than Heshen, and he plundered the entire empire.
Even the national treasury was used arbitrarily by ministers as if it were their own property.
Under these circumstances, Ernest amassed a staggering amount of wealth.
The officials in his faction were all incredibly wealthy. The people's hard-earned money was all in the pockets of these officials and nobles.
At this moment, the empire's treasury is fuller than ever before.
"First, exempt taxes for five years to allow the economy to recover and recuperate, and at the same time abolish the exorbitant taxes imposed in recent years."
After a quick calculation, Yalin immediately made the decision.
The empire is currently in ruins and needs rebuilding. Most of the soldiers in the revolutionary army joined the rebellion because they could not survive.
The ministers and their cronies have truly wreaked havoc on the entire empire.
If given a choice, which of these people would be willing to risk execution to rebel?
Yalin's measures will undoubtedly shake the morale of many revolutionaries, causing them to lose the will to fight.
Besides, only the capital city has been seized so far. Countless other prey await Yalin throughout the empire.
During this time, Yalin gradually became more skilled at confiscating property and exterminating entire families.
As Yalin pondered the future, Akame brought him intelligence with a solemn expression.
The revolutionary army officially launched an uprising with the slogan of overthrowing imperial tyranny.
The simultaneous invasion of three major foreign tribes plunged the entire empire into turmoil.
"Has he finally arrived?" Yalin smiled.
Since they dared to invade, then leave them all behind.
Volume 1: Chapter 66: A Just Brawl (4k)
Of the three great alien races, the Western race was the strongest. They not only established the Western Kingdom, which could rival the millennia-old empire, but also had extremely advanced knowledge of alchemy.
It is the empire's greatest threat.
In the comic, the minister's son, Sheila, travels around the world. Apart from the island nation in the east, he describes the northern tundra and the southern islands as primitive.
The Western Kingdom was viewed much more favorably, with ministers even considering it the only civilization that could possibly catch up with the Empire.
In the original destiny, the Western Kingdom and the Revolutionary Army cooperated to launch a large-scale invasion, with the primary goal of reclaiming their territory.
If we could crush the empire, take a big bite out of it, or even conquer it, that would be ideal.
As a result, the army suffered heavy losses at the hands of Esdeath's forces, with hundreds of thousands perishing in flames and falling completely within the empire's borders.
In the end, they had no choice but to reluctantly open the door to communication after the revolutionary army established a new empire, achieving a brief period of peace.
As for the northern barbarian tribes, a brave and resourceful warrior named Numa Seka led an army of 400,000 south to invade, preparing to realize his grand ambitions.
As a result, he encountered Esdeath, 400,000 people were buried alive, and his own mind was also completely destroyed.
The southern ethnic groups had originally submitted to the empire.
Several years ago, she rebelled due to the excessive oppression of the Empire, but was then thoroughly defeated by Esdeath and could no longer gain any real power. She could only cooperate with the Revolutionary Army to seek revenge.
Thinking about it this way, Esdeath's record in foreign battles is indeed quite brilliant.
If he hadn't ultimately died from Murasame's one-hit kill mechanic, he probably could have single-handedly suppressed the entire empire.
Even if he did not succeed, he would have severely weakened the enemy before his death, preventing the empire from falling into a situation of civil war and subsequent invasion.
Yalin organized the information on the three major ethnic groups in the court. He then made a decision and addressed the civil and military officials below.
"General Esdeath, you will now lead the Northern Legion to deal with the northern barbarians."
After the victory, do not bury the enemy army alive; that would be too wasteful.
The next empire needs a high-quality workforce to accelerate its development.
Yalin was not interested in the carnage on the battlefield. In fact, he neither liked nor hated killing; it was just that there were too many people in this world who needed to be ruthless.
If we want to further develop the empire, we need population in all aspects.
These prisoners are a good source of cheap productivity, and it's not a big loss if they die unexpectedly.
The Land of Forest in the Naruto world only recently surpassed two million in population. If Yarin, the Naruto character, knew the situation in the Akatsuki world, he would probably be envious.
Esdeath immediately agreed upon hearing this.
Although she found managing prisoners quite troublesome and costly, Yalin's plan required these people, so she naturally complied.
"General Budo, you will lead the Imperial Guard to fight against the Western barbarians. I will dispatch the Imperial Arms users and the flying Dangerous Beasts from the Imperial Capital to assist you in defeating them."
Prisoners taken prisoner after the war were all brought back to the empire.
Yalin gave the order to Bud.
The flying dangerous species raised in the capital are all giant beasts tens of meters long, which can play a huge role on battlefields of this scale.
Even if they die in battle, as long as they are not poisoned or corrosive, they can be reused to supplement the army's meals.
After raising them for so many years, it's time to give back to the empire.
Several Imperial Arms users are also suitable for area-of-effect attacks on the battlefield. Handing them over to General Budo will ensure the success of this war.
"As for the revolutionary army and the southern barbarians, leave them to General Najdhitan and the night raid."
After a moment's hesitation, Yalin decided that it wasn't safe enough and decided to stretch his muscles himself.
Unlike other ethnic groups, the soldiers of the Revolutionary Army are mostly citizens of the Empire, so it's best to minimize casualties.
He used his power to intimidate, then had Night Raid take control of all the high-ranking officials and purge the corrupt elements.
As for those who remain true to their original intentions, Yalin can forcibly sign contracts to compel them to surrender.
The entire revolutionary army was purged, and finally the organization was disbanded, with some elites being recruited into the empire.
As for the island nation in the East, it doesn't have a high presence in Akame ga Kill!, but it is the main battlefield in the sequel, The Sun's Expedition.
Once the empire has recovered and regrouped, it can be swallowed up as well.
In addition, some officials who had offended ministers and were demoted or went into seclusion could be reinstated.
Although former minister Jolly is old, he will surely be restless after hearing that Yalin has ascended the throne.
They even traveled thousands of miles to spread their message, eager to make their mark and bring benefits to the people.
Thinking of the father and daughter, Yalin pondered for a moment and then ordered the three Rakshasa demons to protect their safety.
Before heading to the Revolutionary Army headquarters, they captured Sheila, Dr. Fashion, and others who were on the run.
Currently, the only group capable of threatening the Rakshasa Demons is this one.
Yalin was unwilling to let the other side seize the opportunity and repeat the tragedy.
