One Piece: Nobody has more Devil Fruits than me.

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything, because one sentence made Morgans want to throw the manuscript in the other person's face: "Don't you want to look at what you've written? Crocodile and some Ivankov have some untold story? As far as I know, the so-called Ivankov has long been thrown into Impel Down. What kind of bullshit hero is Crocodile doing in Alabasta?"

"But the informant said..."

"Informant, informant, are all the informants you've found just drunkards?"

Morgans snorted, "Your informant was swearing last month that Doflamingo is actually a Celestial Dragon, why don't you say Crocodile is a transvestite?"

The editors remained silent.

Morgans gets angry whenever this is mentioned.

The World Economic News Agency pursues major events that could cause a sensation, and publishes juicy gossip and tidbits every day, giving customers a brief moment of amusement before moving on.

The constant reports about Whitebeard having an illegitimate child, and Big Mom and Kaido possibly having a child, get tiresome after a while.

Moreover, most of these news reports lack evidence and are just rumors and hearsay.

Believe this?

Why not mention that Roger's bloodline still lives on the sea, always ready to become the Pirate King?

Morgans grew angrier the more he thought about it. "When did my newspaper stoop so low that it has to rely on fabricating gossip to maintain sales?"

The editors could only bow their heads.

There's no way around it, money is hard to earn, and life is tough.

Who told me to stand in front of my boss?

After he finished cursing, Morgans plopped down, looking quite helpless.

Morgans, who is always keen on making big news, is going bald.

As a user of the Bird-Bird Fruit, Albatross Form, one would expect him to have abundant wings, but he has become like this in the past two years due to worry.

Actually, you can't really blame your subordinates.

After Roger ushered in the Great Pirate Era, there was indeed a turbulent period of great pirate activity.

Heroes rose up everywhere, and heroes vied for supremacy.

Every day, the headlines are filled with incredibly exciting content.

Moria and Kaido clashed in Wano Country.

Big Mom achieved the title of one of the Four Emperors through the creation of all nations.

Red-Haired Shanks became the youngest of the Four Emperors.

......

Back then, the headlines were all incredibly sensational, but with the establishment of the Seven Warlords system and the establishment of the Four Emperors' spheres of influence, the three admirals of the Navy officially took center stage.

The Great Pirate Era has entered a delicate period of equilibrium.

Big news is becoming increasingly rare.

This balance is a good thing for ordinary people, but for Morgans, who is always obsessed with making big news, it's torture.

At that moment, a newspaper employee rushed in, sweating profusely.

"President, breaking news!"

After several rounds of desensitization training, Morgans seemed to enter a state of sagehood, staring at the other party calmly, "If it's just some trivial matter like some pirate crew stealing tens of millions of Berries from some island, you can pack your things and leave."

The newspaper staff were sweating profusely. Why would someone be fired over a mere disagreement? They could only hope that the news would satisfy the editor-in-chief.

"A supernova has appeared in the East China Sea!"

That's it?

Morgans had a "you're kidding me" look on his face.

The term "supernova" refers to a rookie pirate with a bounty exceeding 100 million Berries who rises to prominence rapidly in a short period of time.

Since the beginning of the Great Pirate Era, a few newcomers like this have emerged every few years, neither too many nor too few.

Characters like Fire Fist Ace and White Horse Cavendish are examples of this.

and then?

Most of the supernovas are either captured by the Navy and thrown into Impel Down, or crushed by the Four Emperors or the Seven Warlords of the Sea in the New World. Only a handful of them actually make it to the end.

Besides, even if a supernova were to emerge from a godforsaken place like the East Blue, it wouldn't be a big deal.

This is hardly big news.

Before the other person could finish speaking, the employee hurriedly said, "That guy took down a Navy Vice Admiral!"

Oh?

Morgans became interested.

That's a bit of an exaggeration. While the strength of the vice admirals in the Marine Headquarters varies, the strongest is Garp, who can fight against the Four Emperors, and the weakest is far beyond the reach of ordinary pirates.

Each and every one of them was a pillar of the navy in the New World, yet they were wiped out in the East China Sea.

What the employee said next excited Morgans even more.

"Vice Admiral Vergo, who was recently promoted to the Navy Headquarters, was killed in the East China Sea. Also found in the same place was Rao G., an executive of the Donquixote Family."

Morgans immediately stood up and took the manuscript from the employee.

"Two people on Kochia Island in the East China Sea... the black market... the Don Quixote family's business?"

Morgans immediately sensed that big news was brewing.

He immediately went to look up the latest intelligence on Vergo.

"The vice admiral on leave went to the East Blue, and coincidentally, he was killed by a pirate along with a Donquixote Family executive at the Donquixote Family's property."

Morgans immediately realized that Vergo's relationship with the Don Quixote family was unusual.

Are they allies or partners?

Is there any connection between the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Vice Admirals of the Marine Headquarters?

Could it be... that guy is a spy sent by Doflamingo?

The relationship between the Navy and the underworld is not so superficial. Many Navy personnel are even willing to pay money to trade with them. Morgans' relationship with the Navy is definitely the best. Many Navy personnel even come to him to buy and sell intelligence.

The thought of this possibility gave Morgans a little thrill.

His journalistic instincts told him that there was definitely a big story to uncover here!

The three editors looked at each other, rarely seeing their president so excited.

"But President, this matter has not been confirmed yet. The current information mainly comes from rumors from black market merchants in the East China Sea. The Navy has not yet made an official announcement."

"The Navy won't issue an announcement!"

Morgans interrupted him.

Could a vice admiral at headquarters be a spy for one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?

If this is proven, it will be a devastating blow to the credibility of the entire naval system.

Neither side will likely admit it.

Now Morgans is more concerned about the supernova that will break all of this!

Russell Snard.

This man has a knack for making the calm sea boil every now and then!

Chapter 40: Bounty Increased to 100 Million Berries! Pirate Supernova!

Two days later,

Marineford, the naval headquarters.

The marshal's office door was tightly closed, and the secretaries outside kept their distance; no one dared to approach at this time.

Sengoku looked at the report in his hand with a headache. "Ridiculous! He actually died in the East Sea? That guy Vergo."

Rear Admiral Vergo of the Navy Headquarters—no, he should be called Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters—has already had his promotion report approved. Upon returning from leave, Vergo will also serve as the base commander of a base in the New World.

That's fine.

Sengoku looked at his old comrade-in-arms with a full head of white hair beside him. "Before he died, he was alone in the black market. Rao G., a member of the Donquixote Family, also died with him."

This is very sensitive.

Why are the Navy and the Seven Warlords of the Sea together?

This is a problem that cannot be ignored, even more important than who killed Vergo.

Therefore, the Warring States period invited cranes.

Before Doflamingo became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Tsuru pursued the Donquixote Family for a very long time, so Sengoku sought her out to answer his guess.

Don't you already have the answer in your heart?

Tsuru spoke calmly, saying, "But I think Doflamingo won't admit it without evidence."

Sengoku nodded.
