In the sea area approximately fifty miles southeast of Loguetown.
The amphibious Bi-Alon motorcycle puffed out smoke.
Captain Smoker, the White Hunter, sat on the motorcycle, looking up at the sky, his mouth agape, his expression stunned.
He didn't even notice the cigar dangling from his mouth had fallen, only his eyes, wide with shock and horror, stared.
All because the scene before him was simply too shocking, even terrifying!!!
Even from far across the sea, Smoker could clearly see it.
He saw the crimson-black lightning giant dragon touch and collide with a falling island.
Ultimately, the island shattered, completely pulverized on the spot!!!
Countless large and small fragments of stone fell into the sea.
Until a piece of the island, dozens of meters in diameter, crashed down near Smoker.
Smoker finally recovered from his extreme shock.
He quickly activated his Logia smoke ability, controlling his motorcycle to dodge left and right, evacuating the dangerous area.
It was precisely because of this that Smoker fortunately escaped with his life.
Because...
Not long after, an entire large Floating Island crashed down.
The terrifying impact caused the already turbulent sea to churn with monstrous waves.
Gulp~
"Golden Lion... Flying Big Pirate Shiki the Golden Lion... defeated!!!"
Smoker's Adam's apple bobbed with difficulty as he murmured unconsciously.
Buruburu Buruburu~
Buruburu Buruburu~
The Den Den Mushi rang for a while before Smoker finally suppressed the shock in his heart and tremblingly answered.
"Smoker, what's the situation over there now? Is Golden Lion Shiki really in the East Blue too? And did he encounter that man?"
Fleet Admiral Sengoku's tense voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Yes... Yes! Just now, I personally witnessed a large island fall from the sky..."
Smoker took a deep breath and reported everything he had witnessed to Smoker.
"What? An island fell from the sky? Could it be that Golden Lion, that bastard, was defeated?"
Fleet Admiral Sengoku's voice rose by more than an octave.
"Calm down, Sengoku, even if it's true, there's nothing to be surprised about!"
Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke calmly.
"While Golden Lion Shiki is a legend of the previous era, Traveler Rolin is the new Emperor of this era. It's normal for Golden Lion not to win. The most urgent task is to investigate the specific situation!"
"Mr. Sengoku, I request to immediately go ashore and investigate!"
Smoker said in a deep voice.
After a moment of hesitation.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku nodded.
"Permission granted! But you must remain highly vigilant, with your own safety as the top priority. If you encounter Traveler Rolin, do not engage in conflict with him. On that basis, try your best to search for and capture Golden Lion Shiki, and maintain constant contact!"
"Yes! I understand!"
Smoker controlled his Billowing Smoke Motorcycle and began to go ashore.
The final search results are bound to shake the world.
...
...
That afternoon.
Somewhere in the sky above the Grand Line.
World Economic Journal, hot air balloon headquarters.
"President! President!"
Several staff members rushed into the President's office, scaring News King Morgans, who had returned to human form, into jumping up and quickly changing back into his albatross bird-man form.
"You two, didn't I tell you that at this time, unless there's an important event, don't disturb my nap time?"
News King Morgans reprimanded him in dissatisfaction.
"But President, a major incident has occurred in the East Blue!"
"Yes, yes, President, this is also a super explosive big news!"
"Just now, we received information from a mysterious person..."
Several presidents spoke one after another, all at once.
"Wait! Wait! Tell me one by one! What kind of explosive big news could there be in that remote corner of the East Blue?"
Morgans sternly interrupted them.
"Yes! President!"
The staff members immediately stood at attention.
"Just now, the mysterious informant sent us several photos. Cocoyasi Village in the East Blue, which is the hometown of Nami, the Thief Cat of the Air Force Pirates, suffered a devastating disaster, attacked by the legendary Flying Big Pirate Shiki the Golden Lion from the previous era!"
A reporter wearing a deerstalker hat reported, suppressing his shock.
"Nani! Golden... Golden Lion Shiki! The legend of the previous era! The man who stood shoulder to shoulder with Pirate King Roger and Whitebeard, the Four Emperors... He, he, he... after twenty years, he actually reappeared, and even attacked Cocoyasi Village. Is this openly provoking the Five Emperors?"
Morgans' bird-like eyes widened, his voice rising by more than an octave due to shock.
"Yes, President, these are the photos sent back from the scene!"
The deerstalker hat reporter handed the faxed photos of the tragic state of Cocoyasi Village to Morgans.
Morgans frowned deeply, and after looking at the photos, he shook his head.
"If it's just this, it can't be considered super big news. There must be a follow-up to this incident!"
Morgans guessed.
"As expected of the President, the nose of a first-class journalist is always so sharp!"
A reporter subtly flattered him.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and tell me!"
Morgans frowned.
"Yes, as the President guessed, there is a follow-up to the Cocoyasi Village incident. Not long after Cocoyasi Village was attacked, the Air Force Pirates arrived at the village and rescued the villagers in distress..."
"After that, the fifth Sea Emperor, Traveler Rolin, found Flying Big Pirate Shiki the Golden Lion and defeated him in one battle. The Flying Great Pirate has completely become a thing of the past!"
The reporters' voices trembled, not from fear, but from excitement.
After all, this was the demise of a legendary figure!!!
The spacious president's office fell into a deathly silence at this moment.
The next second.
"Hahahahaha"
The exaggerated laughter of the bird-man Morgans suddenly erupted.
"Good! Good, good, good! This is truly incredible big news! Following the defeat of Admiral Kizaru in the Enies Lobby incident, that man has once again taken action, proving his strength with the blood of the legendary Flying Great Pirate Golden Lion from the previous era!"
"Traveler, the fifth Sea Emperor, is truly worthy of the title! Without a doubt, this news will surely make the sea boil once again! My subordinates, get to work quickly, time is tight and the task is urgent. I want this news to spread throughout the sea in the shortest possible time!"
Morgans waved his hand and ordered loudly.
"Yes! President!"
The staff reporters responded excitedly.
"However, there's still one question, who exactly is the person who tipped us off about this major incident?"
A reporter asked in confusion.
"Who cares who it is, as long as it makes big news and shakes the world, I'm satisfied!"
Another staff member didn't care.
President's office.
The bird-man Morgans lightly tapped the table with his fingers.
After calming down, he was also pondering who had leaked the information.
Suddenly.
A flash of inspiration struck him.
He thought of a possibility.
"Hahaha, yes! It must be! Don't worry, I will do my best to let the world know the consequences of provoking Five Emperors Rolin!"
...
...
At this moment.
Cocoyasi Village.
A scene of peace and prosperity.
The villagers were excited and joyful, preparing for tonight's celebration banquet.
No one was sad or in pain because of the destruction of the village.
Because...
The current situation of Cocoyasi Village was vastly different from the hellish scene this morning.
The village, originally ravaged and destroyed by fierce beasts, was now completely restored.
Collapsed houses rebuilt, damaged fields recovered...
Everything was exactly the same as before Golden Lion's attack.
The reason for this was naturally the Horse Talisman's Credit.
The ancient magic contained in the Horse Talisman was the power of restoration.
Restore!
Heal!
It could not only instantly heal all injuries and illnesses.
It could also restore damaged objects, producing an effect similar to time reversal.
This morning, when Rolin, Thor, and Nami set off to pursue Golden Lion Shiki.
Robin, Vivi, and others who remained in the village began to use the Horse Talisman to restore the damaged village.
When Rolin and Nami returned, the village had already been restored to its original state.
At this point, there was nothing else Rolin needed to worry about.
While the villagers were excitedly preparing the banquet.
Rolin had already set up his fishing stand and was calmly fishing by the sea.
Tap, tap~
The sound of high heels tapping the ground echoed.
Kalifa, in a professional secretary's outfit, a tight-fitting hip-hugging skirt paired with lettered high-heeled shoes with red soles, stood behind Rolin and pushed up her glasses with her fingertip.
"Boss, the news agency has already been contacted. If nothing unexpected happens, the news of Golden Lion Shiki's defeat will spread throughout the world by tomorrow morning. I believe it will greatly deter the pirates..."
Kalifa reported.
"Mm!"
Rolin nodded faintly.
Just then.
Splash, splash~
Violent ripples spread across the sea surface.
Rolin exerted force with both hands and suddenly pulled up his fishing rod.
[Ding dong]
[Congratulations to the host for acquiring the Paramecia Float-Float Fruit]
"Oh~"
Roland raised his eyebrows slightly.
This was truly not bad.
A new Float-Float Fruit user would be born today!
As Roland thought this, he looked at the young girl in front of him!!!
