Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

Chapter 196: The latest issue of the newspaper! Attention from all sides, bigwigs!

With the help of Locks, Robin, and others, the coating of the Black Demon was completed in just over half a day.

"In just half a day, you've learned almost everything about my cooking skills..."

Looking at the Black Demon after the coating was completed, Rayleigh said to Rocks and Robin with emotion:

"If you both retire in the future, you can both come here and become coating craftsmen..."

Both of them have photographic memories and are exceptionally intelligent.

In just half a day, he learned almost all of the skills of Lao Lei, the coating craftsman.

His intelligence made him, as a "teacher," feel very unfulfilled.

If he were to take on "disciples" in the future, he absolutely could not accept those who were too clever...

“I would never come to a place like this if I were to retire.”

Rocks shrugged: "I'm not like you. The World Government and the Navy will let you go unchecked, but they will definitely not watch me get away with it."

Robin chuckled: "My captain took down two Celestial Dragons. Unless we take down the World Government, we're afraid we'll never have a peaceful life."

"Haha, it's enough that you all understand this."

Rayleigh laughed: "Don't die at the hands of the World Government. I still want to see if you can achieve your goal."

"If I can do it, I will have witnessed history."

"Then you just watch, Senior Rayleigh. No one can stop me from doing what I'm determined to do."

Rocks remained confident and continued, "Thank you very much for Rayleigh's coating for us. It's time for us to leave. We'll meet again someday."

"Ah."

Rayleigh nodded and chuckled, "Let this old fellow see just how far you can go."

"What Rocks couldn't do, Roger couldn't do, Whitebeard couldn't do, perhaps you can do..."

"However, that ocean is dangerous, and the world government is also in danger."

Rayleigh concluded by saying, "The power of the World Government is perhaps even more terrifying than you can imagine..."

He was a firsthand witness to the God Valley incident and had even reached Laugh Tale.

Know what kind of power the World Government possesses.

And is there something else the world government is hiding?

No one knows this except the World Government.

This is also why they didn't spread the "blank 100-year history"...

The true nature of the world government is terrifying!

Upon hearing this, Lockes smirked: "If they dare to cause me trouble, I don't mind wiping them out."

"The World Government is like that, and so is that guy on the throne..."

"Does even that person know?"

Rayleigh was surprised, then shook his head and sighed, "Your elder certainly seems to be a remarkable person."

Rayleigh let out a breath: "Since you know of that person's existence, and are still so confident, it seems you were mentally prepared long ago..."

"more or less."

Rocks casually remarked, "If you don't kill me before I grow up, you won't have the chance after I grow up."

"It all depends on whether the World Government knows what's good for them."

"Ha, only you would dare to say such things in this tone. Even Rocks and Roger never dared to say it like that."

"This shows they are not as good as me."

Locke pursed his lips and said, "Then we'll be going. Please give my regards to Ms. Shaki."

After saying this, Rocks headed towards the Fish-Man Island!

The Black Demon set sail again, disappearing into the depths of the ocean...

Watching the Black Demon depart, Rayleigh muttered to himself, "Roger, Roger, perhaps our plans, our ideas, are about to face a change..."

"The 'timing' we're waiting for might change because of this kid's appearance."

How much change would a monster who claims to be "god" bring to this world?

"Perhaps it will be even more exciting than I imagined?"

Looking at the boundless sea, Rayleigh laughed and said, "This sea is indeed teeming with monsters. You died young... I'll witness whether this kid can do it."

If Rocks achieves his goal, then their response and the "opportunity" they are waiting for will also cease to exist...

After all, Rocks wanted to become a "god"!

To become a "god" whom even the world government doesn't respect!

The other party can do whatever they want...

Destroying the World Government would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?

Is it even possible?

No one can say for sure.

However, Rocks' talent and potential were simply too abnormal.

To possess the strength to fight Kaido at such a young age, and only after Rocks' Devil Fruit powers awaken...

How strong will it be then?

Even Rayleigh couldn't imagine it!

"Oh? Has the latest issue of the newspaper arrived?"

Gazing out at the sea, Rayleigh suddenly noticed a number of newsbirds flying towards them. His eyes flashed: "Let me see just how high this kid's bounty will be..."

He summoned the newsbird and Rayleigh pulled out a small piece of gold and handed it over: "Give me a newspaper."

"Gah?"

The newsbirds were somewhat stunned when they saw the small piece of gold that Rayleigh handed them.

Is this old man really that generous?

Give them gold directly!

"quack!"

The newsbird said it couldn't give change.

Rayleigh seemed to understand what the newsbird meant: "I don't have any change, only gold. I'm not short of money now, so I'll use this to pay. No need for change."

"quack!"

The newsbird felt like it had met a tycoon.

He then took out a few newspapers and handed them the latest wanted poster.

Rayleigh took the newspaper and glanced at it; the headline on the front page was—"Shocking! Major Event in the Sabaody Archipelago!"

As Rayleigh watched, he couldn't help but marvel at how well the birdman knew how to write news.

Even he was shocked by it.

Although it is a fact, describing it with different words can evoke different feelings...

Finally, Rayleigh picked up the wanted posters and looked at them. The first one was none other than Rocks' wanted poster—

The Fifth Emperor, "Black Winged Demon" Rocks, has a bounty of 3 billion Berries!

Looking at the bounty on the wanted poster, Rayleigh couldn't help but exhale: "A bounty of three billion Berries, only slightly less than that of Shanks."

"To be given such a bounty at the age of eighteen is probably a first in the world..."

This was the first time he had ever seen someone of this age have such a high bounty amount...

Even he was shocked, let alone others!

……

The New World and the Land of War.

Beasts of the Sea F Territory.

On Ghost Island.

With bandages wrapped around his body, Kaido looked at the newspaper and wanted poster in his hand, an angry expression on his face: "That damned birdman!"

"They actually said I couldn't defeat the Blackwing Demon? They said I slunk away in front of the Navy?"

What do you mean he can't do anything to the Blackwing Demon?

What do you mean by saying he was no match for the navy and had to slink away in disgrace?

His battle with the Blackwing Demon was never truly over; if the fight had continued, he would have undoubtedly won...

As for the battle with the navy, they only chose to leave after realizing they couldn't defeat them...

How can you call it running away in a sorry state?

If he keeps fighting, he still won't lose!

That damned birdman Morgons is using him to elevate the Blackwing Demon and the Navy's prestige...

They used him as a stepping stone.

What a bastard!

Kaido flew into a rage, his voice echoing across Ghost Island: "Find him! Find that guy's lair! I'll make sure that damned birdman doesn't get away with this!"

Seeing Kaido's furious outburst, none of the Beast Pirates F members dared to provoke him...

As for wanting to find that cautious guy, Morgons...

It's not that easy.

Even the world government cannot find their whereabouts.

Their intelligence agencies are nowhere near as powerful as the World Government's...

Just pretend you didn't hear that.

Anyway, Boss Kaido does whatever he wants, and he'll forget about it soon enough...

"With a bounty of 3 billion Berries and being directly given the title of one of the Five Emperors, no longer just a suspect or a possibility, is the strength of that 'Black Winged Demon' Rocks really that terrifying?"

The one speaking is Quinn, one of the three scourges of Beast Wars.

He was smoking a cigar and looking at the newspaper, his astonishment clearly visible on his face.

Then his gaze fell on Kaido: "Boss, you really can't do anything to him?"

"Could it be that the newspapers are exaggerating? That birdman Mooreguns often does things like that..."

The only ones who dare to speak to Kaido in his rage are the three great calamities of Beast Pirates F...

At this moment, Quinn was genuinely surprised by the strength of "Blackwing Demon" Lox.

Do you think the newspaper exaggerated this?

"..."

Kaido gulped down his drink.

With a 'bang,' the wine gourd was slammed onto the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly...

Kaido is an eccentric person whose emotions come and go quickly.

He casually tossed the newspaper aside: "If you really want to be honest, the newspaper didn't exaggerate at all..."

"In that battle alone, I really couldn't do anything to that guy!"

Looking down at his still-healing wounds, Kaido grinned: "That guy is strong! Strong like a monster. Most of these injuries were caused by him!"

"Especially his chest... he might be left with indelible scars. Oh ho ho, that guy is a real monster!"
