"So such things can happen..."

Jinbe was slightly taken aback after hearing Whitebeard's explanation.

He simply couldn't imagine what the Straw Hat Pirates had done to earn Whitebeard's description of it as a "huge favor."

"I understand, Dad. I will complete the mission!"

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Jinbe nodded and accepted the task.

Shortly after, Jinbe bid farewell to the Whitebeard Pirates and jumped into the sea with the treasure chest in his arms, swimming with the ocean currents into the deep sea.

The Whitebeard Pirates were left behind, still in shock at what the Straw Hat Pirates had done.

……

……

"Hahaha, big news, big news..."

"Lord Crimson, why didn't you tell me about this big news sooner?!"

"It's such a shame that those shady newspapers under the World Government managed to grab the headlines!"

The scene returns to Fishman Island, Sea Forest.

A celebration is underway to mark Luffy becoming the world's most wanted criminal and the significant increase in the bounties of his crew.

However, Crimson was interrupted halfway through by a phone call, as expected, and ran to the edge of the banquet to chat with a Den Den Mushi.

"I think you've misunderstood me, President Morgans."

Listening to Morgans's sarcastic and whiny complaints, Crimson responded with a calm smile:

"It's not that I don't want to give you firsthand news."

"I really don't want to ruin your excellent business partner."

"After all, the information we have now... if you were to broadcast it, you and your members would likely face the most severe pursuit from the World Government!"

"You should know what I'm talking about..."

This time, Crimson was genuinely not being evasive; he was truly worried that Morgans would be targeted by the Five Elders because of this report.

Regardless, Morgans' ability to quickly establish a global signal network is something the Straw Hat Pirates lack and will likely never possess for a long time to come.

Red not only wanted to protect such a special talent, but even considered recruiting him as a member of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet.

After all, the war of public opinion is also a very terrible war.

Unfortunately, with the cards they currently hold, Crimson can't think of anything that could appeal to Morgans' unique needs.

So his current idea is to give Morgans as much big news as possible to cultivate his goodwill first.

"I see."

Morgans nodded in agreement with Crimson's response, acknowledging Crimson's reason for not sending him the firsthand information.

However, the next second, Morgans said with a resolute look:

"However... while I am very grateful for Lord Crimson's consideration for me, I think you are underestimating me too much!"

The Den Den Mushi representing Morgans suddenly became resolute.

Who do you think I am?!

"I'm determined to become the King of News!!!"

"While I may occasionally exaggerate in my articles and headlines, I am completely different from those who distort the facts and spread rumors for status and money!"

"Throughout my life, I will only broadcast the most truthful reports!"

"So, if you really have any incredible news, please tell me!"

"I will definitely spread it all over the world within a day!!!"

Bake!

I don't know if it's just my imagination because of the crimson color.

At that moment, he actually felt a spark of fighting spirit emanating from the Den Den Mushi that represented Morgans.

"As expected of you."

Crimson sighed inwardly, then a slight smile appeared on his lips as he thought to himself:

"Since you're so eager for a big news story, then I'll grant your wish..."

A thought flashed through her mind, and Akane immediately spoke into the Den Den Mushi:

"Alright, since you're so insistent, I'll give you a big news story for free!"

"President Morgans, have you ever heard the story of the World Government's [Hollow Throne]?"

"The Void Throne?" Morgans' eyes flashed on the other end of the phone, and he quickly relayed the information he knew:

“I have heard that…it seems that eight hundred years ago, the twenty kings who founded the World Government personally crafted a supreme throne, symbolizing the center of the world, and left their precious weapons around the throne.”

"However, the twenty kings set a rule that no one was allowed to sit in that seat, which represented a vow of equality among the nations and a vow never to harbor dictatorial thoughts."

Although the legend of the Void Throne is not very popular, it is passed down by word of mouth among the high-ranking nobles of various countries, and Morgans, who controls the dissemination of information, is naturally well aware of it.

Just as Morgans was wondering why Crimson suddenly mentioned the Void Throne, Crimson chuckled and said:

"I didn't expect President Morgans to have such a high level of knowledge."

"but……"

"Regardless of whether the Void Throne was created by the twenty kings for peace and equality, the intelligence I have indicates that..."

"The Void Throne is not without an owner!!!"

"Above the Five Elders, who hold the highest authority in the World Government, there is another being who truly controls this world!!!"

"And the Five Elders refer to that being as—[Master]!"

"The name of that being is—Nerona Imsaac!!!"

"Based on my speculation, this guy named Im has most likely existed since the founding of the World Government 800 years ago, and has completely controlled the World Government!!!"

"!!?"

Crimson dropped a barrage of information about Im, leaving Morgans stunned and speechless.

Before he could react, Crimson spoke again:

"I can assure you that everything I'm saying is true and accurate information!"

"Well, I've given you the information now. As for how to turn these few sentences into actual words in the newspaper, that's up to you, President Morgans."

"bring it on!"

"Let me see what you're capable of!"

"Don't disappoint me, President Morgans!"

"I have many interesting things waiting for you to report!"

Before Morgans could ask any further questions, Crimson hung up the phone.

at the same time.

Inside the World Economic Herald, somewhere in the sky of the New World, a group of albatrosses are dragging it across the sky.

Morgans stared at the phone that had been abruptly disconnected, a slow smile creeping onto his lips.

"Is this a test for me, Lord Crimson!?"

"Funny~ This is so much fun!!!"

I accept your test!

"The one who holds supreme power—Im!?"

"Don't worry, in the near future, I will let the whole world know about this person's existence!"

Morgans did not question the authenticity of the Crimson intelligence.

Based on their long-standing cooperation, there is still some trust between them.

On this day, all the hidden bases of the World Economic Herald received an urgent headline and were instructed by headquarters to…

This news must be published as soon as possible!!!

Chapter 316 The Straw Hat Pirates' Attack (Seeking monthly votes~)

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the Straw Hat Pirates and the Straw Hat Army had been staying in the Sea Forest of Fishman Island for three days.

The world's highest bounty did not make the Straw Hat crew proud.

After the initial celebratory banquet, everyone immediately threw themselves into their respective cultivation practices.

After all, they were so powerful that even the Five Elders in Mary Geoise didn't dare to face them, so they were really embarrassed to call themselves strong.

During these three days, Crimson was also busy.

He led his companions on a rampage through the world of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, speeding through the story while leveling up his companions.

Due to the historical context, the storyline of this game differs from traditional gym challenges and badge collection.

While enhancing freedom of movement, Arceus also introduces a brand new game mode, which is...

Pokémon Pokédex Project!!!

After completing the initial storyline, Red successfully joined Team Galactic, whose main purpose was to investigate the ecology of Pokémon, and became one of Team Galactic's investigators.

His main mission in this game world is to encounter various Pokémon, capture and defeat them, or complete specific tasks to earn research points.

Once he has accumulated a certain number of research points, he can apply to the leader of the Galaxy Team for a star upgrade.

After completing certain tasks related to the storyline, you can increase your star rating.

Over the course of three days of gameplay, Crimson, thanks to her superior movement speed and the powerful strength of her companions at high levels, has successfully leveled up to become a 5-star investigator.

Unfortunately... perhaps because the method of star-level upgrades is too simple, Crimson has not yet triggered any achievement rewards in the world of Arceus.
