Chapter 82: A Series of Big News
"Bang!"
"Damn idiots! A bunch of idiots! Idiots!"
Not at the same time, but at the same place.
The six editors-in-chief of the World Economic News Agency once again stood dejectedly in the president's office, silently enduring the president's furious tirade.
Morsten was so angry that he kept slamming his fist on the table, making a loud banging sound: "Vice Admiral Zephyr, who is about to be promoted to Admiral, has led his men to desert! And you all can fall behind!"
"Where are our correspondents in Marineford?! Where are they?! Are they fucking dead?! Ah!"
Mostin grabbed a copy of the Gaya Daily from the table and waved it around, his hands trembling: "If I hadn't glanced at that bunch of bitches' newspaper, you bunch of fucking trash wouldn't even know!"
"Tell me! What the hell else can you guys do?!"
The editor-in-chief in charge of the six editors, the one with gold-rimmed glasses, timidly raised his glasses slightly: "President—this time, we really can't be blamed. This situation is even more complicated than when the Whitebeard Pirates merged into the Golden Grand Fleet—"
Mostin's trembling fingers pointed repeatedly at the bespectacled editor-in-chief, a breath catching in his throat for a long time before he finally roared, "Speak! If you can't give me a straight answer today, I'll make sure you arrive at work earlier than the cleaners and leave later than the security guards from now on!"
"Um—well, boss, I only have one thing to say, no points 2 and 3. Can you just deduct my bonus and not change my working hours?"
The editor-in-chief, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, rubbed his hands together somewhat embarrassedly, then made a "1" gesture with his right hand and said in a low voice.
"I'll trap you—"
Mostin couldn't take it anymore. Clutching the newspaper, he flipped over the desk and started throwing the newspaper at the man with the gold-rimmed glasses.
The other five editors huddled at the office door, looking at the chief editor who had been beaten by the president with admiration. No wonder he was their boss, he really had guts!
"I told you to speak! Speak! Speak!"
The man with the gold-rimmed glasses covered his head, neither fighting back nor dodging: "Tell me, tell me, tell me!"
"The Navy has issued a gag order! Our reporters in Marineford are being watched every day, and they really don't know anything."
"How did the people at the Gaya Daily know that!"
After a beating, Mostin's anger subsided considerably. He tore the newspaper in his hand to shreds and threw it into the trash can.
Seeing that the president had stopped fighting, the man with the gold-rimmed glasses straightened his hair and glasses, then leaned closer to Mostin and lowered his voice: "President, is there a possibility—that the Kingdom of Jaya—is not only someone who knows the truth, but also someone involved in this naval split—"
"Even—the one in control—"
Hearing this, Mostin frowned and glanced at the gold-rimmed glasses: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"If the Kingdom of Jaya is indeed a participant, or even the mastermind, in splitting the Navy—then the Kingdom of Jaya will have a hard time explaining itself to the World Government."
"Even you and I can connect this to the truth. Would the Golden Emperor and the Gaya Secretariat be so stupid as to do something that incriminates themselves?"
Mostin waved his hand, picked up the water glass on his desk, and took a sip: "If this matter really has something to do with the Kingdom of Gaya, why would the Gaya Daily be reporting on it so actively?"
"unless----"
The man with the gold-rimmed glasses next to him lit up: "Unless?"
Just then—
"Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!"
"President! President! Big news! Big news!"
The door to Mostin's office was pounded on from the outside, and shouts came in.
"It's the New World Mobile Journalists Department."
Upon hearing the voice, the man with the gold glasses immediately reported the identity of the visitor to Mostin. Mostin nodded and then waved for the editors at the door to open the office door.
As soon as the door opened, a young reporter rushed in, a camera hanging around his neck and a large stack of photos in his hand.
The reporter entered and, seeing a large group of editors, showed no stage fright, shouting with fervor, "President! The Rocks Pirates' stronghold, Beehive Island, has been attacked! Just two days ago!"
"The Rocks Pirates' executives have threatened to sweep through the surrounding islands and towns!"
"And there's still no word from the Gaya Daily!"
"What?!"
The man with the gold-rimmed glasses was overjoyed! He glanced at Mostin, and after receiving a signal, quickly said, "What are you waiting for! Go and notify the printing department! Print the newspapers!"
Before the reporter could reply, another person burst into the office shouting, "President Mosting! Big news!"
"A violent explosion occurred in a sea area of the New World! It was as if a second sun had risen! People in the nearby island nations all saw it!"
"The Gaya Daily must be too far from New World; there hasn't been any news yet!"
Mostin was stunned. He waved his hand, leaving the editors in charge.
After everyone left, a long silence fell over the president's office.
Unless what?
Unless a series of major news events follow, diverting people's attention and the world government's focus, leaving Mary Geoise overwhelmed.
and----
The former president of the World Economic News Agency, who has been navigating the oceans for 30 years, also keenly realized that the Gaya Daily's active reporting on Zefa's departure to the Navy might also be a cover-up for something.
Triple insurance? Triple smokescreen?
But what else can the Kingdom of Gaya hide?
What could be more secretive than poaching a vice admiral and his subordinates from the navy?
Haha, it can't be that the giants are going to join the Unova Kingdom, right?
Hahaha, no way, no way! With both a Marine Admiral and a Giant, if the Golden Emperor does this, the Five Elders will probably issue a Buster Call.
"To cover up the news that Elbaf has joined the United Kingdom? No, no, no."
Still very weak, Oro lay on his sickbed in Elbaf and waved to Harald, who had come to visit him: "The Five Elders are only so-so, and the Navy is even weaker. Apart from Garp, the others are nothing to fear."
"So what if they issue a Buster Call to Jaya Island?"
Oro picked up an apple from the table next to him, took a bite, and winced in pain, but didn't stop.
The unexpected small nuclear explosion, while not fatal to Aurora and Locus, did cause them considerable suffering.
Oro is alright; he has multiple layers of gold protection, so as long as he keeps consuming energy, he'll only be bedridden for two or three weeks at most.
Lox was in a much worse situation; he was lucky to be able to get out of bed within three months.
After finishing an apple, Auro continued, "If the World Government can investigate this matter thoroughly and issue a Buster Call immediately, it might cause us some losses."
"In a few years, when you, me, Lingling, and Newgate join forces, the Five Elders of the World Government and the Navy will be nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs."
"Not to mention the Rocks Pirates, who are also eyeing us covetously."
"Harald, you probably know better than I do that even if my power and that of Mo'er were a hundred times stronger than they are now, the King of the World would still prioritize the D clan."
