Lolden was literally asked "do you want help?"
The fucking retard said no because "muh 20 years. muh country problem"
Garp sees the marines justice and holding down pirates as a necessary evil.
But not when he knows theres a chance for the bigger evil to go down.
He didn't know the true history and shit.
If he had, i doubt he'd have no reaction at all.
And as i said, even if Garp doesn't rebel, he'd at the very least step aside.
That's a huge piece down for WG side.
Roger pirate remnants, WB pirates, Revo army(in their freedom fighters beginning form) and countless other people from kingdoms that are suffering under the rule of WG would have joined the cause.
Not like they had to do it immediately or in a single attack.
They could have gathered forces for like a year minimum. Spread the truth and liberated countries and added even more people.
Not sit on their hands for 20 fucking years drinking gambling and fucking around.
Why would the WB pirates help ?
WB did not do anything to help Oden country and Oden was dead so you can't use the excuse that he did not want help .
WB had the chance to become PK and learn everything and did not take it , before he died he said he did not give fuck about the OP or the war it will cause .
Roger had been a pirates for over 20 years at that point causing havoc on the seas why would countries all of sudden just believe or follow him .( we know he was hated by other pirates for all we know he was hated by rest of the world also so it even harder for him to get people to join . )
There places that not believing VP and he suppose to have help the world in huge ways much more than roger ever did .
So you asking a person that been a selfish pirate for decades to all of sudden help world with year left on his life and put all his crew in danger when he won't be around to fight with them if they take year to build up forces .
