Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

"Ah hahahaha!"

"On an occasion like this, with all the major powers in the New World present!"

"Allies? A chance encounter? Or do you want to convey some message?"

It seems to be asking a question, but it does not wait for an answer.

The president of the World Economic News Agency, Morgans, [Big News], spread his wings and moved with great movements as if he were giving a passionate personal speech.

"The veteran overlord Roger's Pirates and the emerging overlord Beasts Pirates have unexpectedly appeared together in the territory of another sea queen..."

"And the person present was actually Vice Captain Rayleigh!"

“This is definitely big news!”

"A major event that will rekindle the New World after six months of silence!"

As one of the few people who knew about the Valley of God incident, he subsequently conducted a comprehensive investigation into all the forces involved.

The focus is of course on Roger's pirate group, one of the protagonists, and the remnants of Rocks who have begun to call the shots in the New World again.

Now, the two originally hostile forces have come together without any warning. No matter what the reasons and purposes are, it is enough to irritate some people.

But he doesn't care about that. As long as it's news that can make the sea boil, he will report it no matter what it is!

This is his [Big News] Morgans principle!

After venting his excitement a little, Morgans picked up the Den Den Mushi again and began to inquire about the details.

"Who's on the other side? Who's leading the Hundred Beasts team?"

"No, I don't know. So far, I've only seen Rayleigh with four... no, five children."

Seeing Ou Bei who had just come out of the cabin, the reporter quickly changed his words.

"Ok?"

"Five... children?"

"Are you sure you didn't miss anything? The officers on the Beasts side, as I recall, include Jin, Burfat, and..."

"?!"

"and many more!"

As if he had grasped something, Morgans suddenly screamed, and then burst into an even sharper and more excited laughter.

"Yahahahahahaha!"

“Could it be that? Could it be that? Could it be that…!”

"Could it be that the three mysterious officials sent by Baishou this time are the other three rumored ones?"

"Finally, finally, finally..."

"Is he finally going to be revealed? There's no photo, no portrait, only his general name is known, of the cadres hidden by the beasts!"

Big events plus big revelations!

Morgans could no longer imagine what the expressions of readers on the ocean would be when that issue of the newspaper went on sale.

"Where are you now? I'll go there myself!"

"I, I'm at the dock now."

Library——

After getting the answer, Morgans hung up the Den Den Mushi and walked out the door.

"Wait a moment, Mr. Morgans!"

"Lord Perospero has ordered that you do not move around before the ceremony begins. After the ceremony, you can take any photos you want—"

"Go away!"

Morgans knocked the pirate in charge of reception to the ground with a single punch, then pushed open the door of the room which was trembling with fear.

"Wait? Are you kidding me?!"

"Timeliness is the life of news! Idiot!"

Stepping on the unconscious pirate, Morgans ran towards the dock as fast as he could.

……

"Everyone, this is Candy Island, which is under my charge. Perolin~"

Perospero, who was walking in front, extended a hand gracefully and introduced La Yi, Rayleigh and others.

Looking forward along his candy-made civilization stick, as far as the eye can see, the entire island seems to be wrapped in a layer of candy.

Red, green, yellow...candies of all colors filled everyone's vision.

"Ohhhhh! That's amazing!"

“Is this all candy?”

Bucky's eyes gleamed with incredible excitement.

"Of course. The red one is strawberry flavored, the green one is apple flavored, and as for the yellow one..."

“You can come and try eating by yourselves.”

As he spoke, Perospero produced a handful of candy and handed it to the children.

Don't look at him like this, in fact, Perospero is a person who likes children very much and is very prestigious among the children of all nations.

……

Buggy and Shanks couldn't wait to take the candy, but without opening their mouths, they handed it to Ra first.

"Sister La, try it first."*2

"Ah."

Seeing the two little ones like this, La smiled and took a candy from each of their hands.

She was quite curious about the candies that this ability could produce, and she didn't know if there was any difference between them and real candies.

"Ossi, Oubey, do you want it?"

"Well, big sister, give me one."

Ouba pulled Buggy's penis out of La's hand, and saw that little Buggy was anxious and angry, but he still didn't dare to step forward. He just hid behind Shanks with grievance.

"I do not want."

Unexpectedly, Osi, who usually likes to eat snacks, simply shook his head and refused.

The Homies everywhere on the island had already made her feel nauseous, so how could she have the mood to eat candy?

She just wanted to attend the ceremony and go back quickly.

Seeing Osi's abnormality, he said, "If you feel uncomfortable, go back. There is no need to force yourself."

"No, I want to see with my own eyes what kind of person this woman is who did such a disgusting thing."

Osi shook his head and continued to stare at the Homies around him.

Perospero, completely unaware that the other party was dissing his mother, continued to act as a guide after distributing the candies.

But for some reason, Perospero felt that the Candy Island, which he was very familiar with in the past, had a strange and unfamiliar feeling today.

[How strange! Usually when someone comes, the Homizi on the island always shout and sing, but why is there no sound today?]

[Is it broken?]

The quiet environment on the island made him feel a little strange.

The houses, trees, flowers, etc. that usually smile cheerfully seemed dead today. They were all wilted and made no sound at all.

Are you kidding? Didn’t you see that the god of the underworld who controls the souls next to him has a stern face all the time?

Even though these Homies only possessed the most basic intelligence, the pitifully broken souls within them still caused them to instinctively feign death the moment they sensed Osi's presence... or simply fainted from fright.

"Please follow me. I'll take you to the Candy Hotel first. Someone will arrange all the services for you over the next few days."

"Wan Guo will not let you down."

Putting all this behind him, Perospero returned to his previous calm demeanor and led everyone forward.

(PS: Morgans, the birdman, can't actually fly.)

Chapter 185: Struggling

"Oh oh oh oh!"

"Is that the new cadre of the Beast?"

"And the one next to her, it's Rayleigh!"

Morgans, who hurriedly ran to the dock from another road, just happened to see Perospero leading everyone to the hotel where they were staying.

Without thinking too much, Morgans took out the camera phone he carried with him, pointed it at the profiles of everyone and pressed the shutter.

Click~

"Hmm?"

The undisguised shutter sound immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Mr. Perros, are you taking too many photos?"

"Hasn't the ceremony started yet?"

La looked in Morgans' direction and asked curiously.

If she remembered correctly, someone had already filmed it once when their ship had just docked.

She thought that the photoshoot was just a registration for the ceremony, so she didn't take it seriously.

But now, after just a few minutes, someone else took the photo again, which made her curious about what the other person was trying to do.

Could it be that last time they were photographing the boat, and this time they are photographing the people?

But there's no need to be so sneaky about this, right? Just stand out and take a frontal photo.

"No, I didn't arrange for anyone to take pictures. Perolin~"

Seeing the familiar bird-man figure not far away, Perospero's eyelids jumped, and then he clenched the candy cane in his hand and bowed to La and others.

"Excuse me, my dear guests."

"Please excuse me for a moment, Perolin~"

……

Bang!

"Hey, Morgans!"

"You guy, I should have told you not to run around and disturb other guests, right? Perolin~"

At the corner of a candy shop, Perospero pushed Morgans against the wall and then put his nose against his beak.

"You can take whatever photos you want after the ceremony begins!"

"But before that, could you please restrain yourself a little?"

"If your mother knew you were going to disrupt the ceremony before it even started, she would definitely be angry, Perolin~"

"You don't want to face your mother's wrath, do you?"

"Or do you want to be kicked out of the 'World' now?"

Perospero was indeed quite angry now. Each of these guys who came to attend the ceremony was a troublesome person and would cause trouble if he was not careful.

"Well~well~"

"Calm down, son of Charlotte."

Morgans flapped his wings, trying to calm the other party's anger.

As a frequent guest at Big Mom's tea parties, he was already very familiar with Charlotte's eldest son, who was quite mature in both his actions and appearance.

"You have to understand that as a journalist, if I don't go to the scene as soon as I discover the news, it would be a serious dereliction of duty."
