Chapter 12 Newspaper
Den Den Mushi declares war live, and the most arrogant pirate in history appears - perhaps the truth is just a narcissistic psychopath?!
Recently, a pirate named Yale, who calls himself the 'Captain of the Star Pirates', has forcibly controlled all the Den Den Mushi in the world through unknown means, forcing everyone to watch his video declaring war on the World Government and the world!
He called us all indigenous people - ignorant, closed-minded and backward - and insulted everyone with such sharp words.
He also threatened to take all the wealth in the world for himself, inciting the people to resist the rule of the world government and openly challenging the government and naval authority!
After extensive investigations by the newspaper, we discovered that this person had a mysterious background, had never been sighted before, and had no reward or bounty.
In other words, we cannot judge his strength based on his past records, but we can still make some guesses based on his performance!
Although this person's words and actions are like a clown in a circus, the fact that he can control Den Den Mushi all over the world shows that there must be a powerful group of scientists behind him, or a devil fruit ability related to Den Den Mushi - such as the animal-type Den Den Mushi fruit (if it exists).
In addition, reporters from our East China Sea branch reported that the naval hero Vice Admiral Garp was leading a warship to the East China Sea. During the same period of time, two islands in the East China Sea disappeared inexplicably, and one of the islands was a member state of the government.
This newspaper has reason to suspect that this suspicious pirate captain Yale is very likely related to Garp's movements and the mysterious disappearance of the East China Sea islands!
I hope the government and the navy can respond to this as soon as possible! 】
"What a mess! What a waste of my Baileys!"
On the Merry sailing on the sea, Nami, a girl with short orange hair, angrily threw away the newspaper in her hand.
The thick newspaper clattered against the deck.
The pages rustled with the sea breeze, and finally stopped on the first page with a large illustration printed on it.
Nami was stunned for two seconds, then reluctantly bent down to pick up the newspaper.
She watched the live broadcast that day with several other people at a sea restaurant called Bharati.
Bharati has a Den Den Mushi that he uses to answer and make appointment calls for guests.
It definitely didn't have any projection capabilities, but somehow it projected the image of that man.
Looking at the man's photo in the newspaper again, Nami snorted and muttered disdainfully.
“It would be nice if it were really that powerful…”
Can the pain really end just by shouting to the Den Den Mushi, "Dear Captain Yale, please save me"?
This kind of kid-like lies—Nami covered the tattoo on her left shoulder that belonged to Arlong and his gang, her expression gloomy and inexplicable—she had stopped believing it many years ago...

"Oh, what a big scene..."
Also on the surface of the East China Sea, Kuzan, who was sailing alone in a small boat, was holding a copy of the latest edition of the World Economic Daily.
Morgans is worthy of being the president of the world's largest newspaper. He knows very well what should be reported and what should not be reported, as well as the scale of the news that can be reported.
Although the content of this report offended Captain Yale, the government and the navy, he did not mention Captain Yale's last words - that as long as they said a word to the Den Den Mushi, Captain Yale would appear to save them.
Kuzan knew that although Captain Yale's Den Den Mushi live broadcast seemed to have attracted a lot of attention, only a few people could see it.

In this ocean, there are many poor creatures who live in a dark and gloomy "hell" where even Den Den Mushi cannot reach them.
Those poor souls will definitely take every opportunity to ask for help.
But the prerequisite is that they have the opportunity to ask for help from the Den Den Mushi.
"I see, I hadn't thought of that~"
A voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Kuzan was startled, but when he looked back, he had regained his calmness and the usual laziness on his face.
"Dear Captain Yale~" he asked in a tone that was hard to tell whether it was teasing or sarcastic.
"You haven't had enough of the devil fruit yet, are you thinking of taking out my chest again?"
His words received no response.
The person who took away his ability seemed to think that this was nonsense and didn't matter if he ignored it.
This is indeed the case.
No matter who is speaking in front of him, as long as he feels there is no need to listen or does not want to listen, Yale will casually ignore it.
Yale is polite and respectful to others only when he wants to or is in a good mood.
He was not in a good mood at the moment, so naturally he was too lazy to show a cordial and friendly attitude in front of the backward natives of the planet.
With a flick of his finger, the newspaper in Kuzan's hand immediately flew towards him.
Yale caught it and opened the first page of the newspaper. "Where is the headquarters of the World Economic News?"
"I don't know. No one knows where its headquarters is. That's why Morgans, the newspaper's president, is so unscrupulous."
Kuzan said sincerely that he didn't mind that the newspaper he bought with his own money was snatched away by the other party.
He changed his sitting position so that he was facing Yale to facilitate the subsequent conversation.
Yale was sitting at the stern of the boat, and every strand of his long hair blown by the sea breeze seemed to have life, burning wildly behind him.
He changed into a platinum outfit today, still a style that had never been seen before, full of a cold and technological feel.
The golden decorations look like scales or wind chimes, and are either tightly attached to the clothes or pieced together into delicate pendants and chains, jingling and embellishing all over the clothes.
Just like a red rose blooming in the pure snow, but unfortunately it has thorns.
Yale was very dissatisfied with Aokiji's answer, but the answer obtained from reading his brain waves told him that this person was indeed telling the truth.
"You should know that your answer is not what I want."
He threw the newspaper aside and stood up by holding onto the side of the boat. The ornaments on his body fell off and flew around, automatically forming a floating chair behind him.
Kuzan looked at the scene in amazement.
Yale sat on the metal floating chair and quickly crossed his legs.
The chair took him in circles around the boat, which he found very amusing.
"What should I do with you? You don't have any devil fruits to bribe me with now."
Looking at Yale who appeared in his field of vision from time to time, Kuzan was not afraid but laughed instead.
It's really hard to feel scared by the other party's game-like mentality.
"This doesn't threaten me. I'm not afraid of death." Kuzan paused and asked sharply.
"Besides, I'm still useful to you. You didn't just steal my devil fruit, right?"
The metal chair stopped in front of him.
Yale supported his cheek with one hand and looked at the native with a smile, a little confused as to why he thought so.
"That's simple. You found me so easily. You can't just find anyone you want. Then you don't need to ask me where Morgans is."
Kuzan shrugged and raised his hand to press the place where he was pierced before. "And I can feel that there is a very subtle strange feeling in it."
"Then it seems that on this planet, your strength should be considered among the top ones."
Yale said nonchalantly, "Since I came into this world, you are the first one who has successfully sensed the existence of influence."
"Influence?" Kuzan thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, the impact—you'll know if you get a chance later."
Yale was too lazy to waste time talking to the natives, but there was one thing he still wanted to correct.
"If I really want to find it, I can still find where Morgans is. It's just a bit troublesome, and I'm too lazy to do it."
Kuzan remained silent, still pondering what the so-called 'influence' was.
Is it an ability similar to special observation Haki that can read and influence other people's minds and thoughts?
His thoughts were almost transparent to Yale.
"Observation Haki? The definition is indeed somewhat similar, but..."
Yale turned his head and looked elsewhere, and a tiny black dot appeared on the distant horizon.
He looked away again, a playful smile appearing on his face.
"But just think of it as a special kind of observation Haki. After all, with your aboriginal brains, you can't understand the profound principles I'm explaining."
Kuzan followed his gaze and also noticed the small black dot.
The black spot seemed to be on his way and was about to pass through the doldrums, so Kuzan soon saw the detailed outline of the black spot.
A man carrying a huge black knife.
Hawkeye——Mihawk!
Kuzan was a little surprised that he would see pirates who were supposed to appear in the New World in the waters of the East China Sea.
This does not mean that pirates from the New World cannot appear in the East China Sea, but for those powerful pirates who can be active in the New World, coming to this weakest island is really meaningless.
He was thinking about Mihawk's intention of coming to the East China Sea, so he was not too wary or alert.
Mihawk is a Shichibukai who works with the government, and he is an admiral of the navy, so there is no need for them to fight.
Hawkeye Mihawk, who was approaching, also saw Aokiji Kuzan on the boat, and of course Yale sitting on a strange floating metal chair.
He took a closer look at the metal chair. Although he didn't understand how it floated, he thought it must be the power of the devil fruit.
After taking a few more glances, Mihawk recognized that the man sitting on the chair was the one who had previously controlled the Den Den Mushi to broadcast live to the world.
He frowned slightly, his face expressionless but with some confusion in his eyes.
He seemed to have accidentally entered the scene of the admiral's arrest.
But the scene was so peaceful and harmonious that it seemed as if no fight had ever broken out.
"Are you also a devil fruit user?"
Yale looked at Hawkeye Mihawk with great interest.
The metal chair then began to circle around Mihawk's coffin boat.
Mihawk took one look and frowned.
As the metal chair came into view from the other side, he drew his sword and swung it without hesitation.
The fierce and sharp sword energy slashed out, splitting two deep ravines in the calm sea.
After a long time, the surrounding sea water began to fill back as if to confirm that the danger had disappeared.
"Tsk tsk, so fierce~" Yale teased.
The metal defense in front of him that blocked the sword energy and split it into two quickly disintegrated and reassembled.
He was still sitting on the metal chair, looking down at the two people below.
"Very good. Daring to attack me means you are ready to die."
