The speaker was Jack, the last of the Three Disasters of the Beasts Pirates.
He was an imposing figure, even taller and more robust than Kaido himself. His golden hair was styled into a ponytail and two braids, and he wore a metal jawpiece with ivory-like ornaments on his head and shoulders.
Adorned with spiked rivets and a fur coat, he wielded two shotel-like weapons. Despite being a member of the Fish-Man Tribe, he bore a striking resemblance to humans.
His bounty was 1 billion Berries.
"Enough, you two!" Jack interjected. "The Governor hasn't even spoken yet!"
Upon hearing Jack words, King and Queen who had been in a heated argument glanced at Kaido and immediately ceased their bickering.
Seeing his words take immediate effect, Jack felt a surge of pride, finally feeling like he had a voice in front of his two older brothers.
He couldn't help but feel a secret joy.
Though Jack was known for his ruthless and decisive nature, his fierce temper and his domineering presence outside, he always felt overshadowed by King and Queen.
The two treated him like a child, which had always been a source of frustration for him. But there was no helping it—he was still young, only 28 years old.
The other two Disasters were not just his older brothers, they were old enough to be his father.
"Governor?"
After pausing their argument, King and Queen avoided looking at each other not even bothering to speak.
Jack, who had just intervened shook his head feeling a bit exasperated. But he didn't dwell on it too much, as the two often clashed, though they were reliable partners in battle and there was no need to worry about any lingering resentment.
"Of course, we're going!" Kaido, now directly addressed by Jack, lost his earlier amusement.
"This operation isn't up for discussion—it's a direct order!"
"Prepare everything you need during this time!"
"No one is allowed to leave. I don't want anyone missing when I call for assembly, understand?"
Kaido imposing aura radiated as he issued his commands, his expression stern and commanding.
"Yes, Governor!"
At this moment, even if some still harbored doubts, it no longer mattered.
When Kaido gave an order, even if it meant climbing mountains of blades or swimming through seas of fire, there would be no objections.
The voices of the Three Disasters and the Flying Six echoed through the meeting hall.
The vast room reverberated with their determination.
However, among the crowd, a man with an "X" mark on his chin and chest, a hooked nose, an eye patch and a medieval swordsman hat, stood out. In his right hand, he held a four-bladed axe and in his left, a sword. A peculiar glint flashed in his eyes.
He was one of the Flying Six: X. Drake. His bounty was 222 million Berries.
***
In the New World, there was an island that appeared ordinary at first glance.
Outwardly, it seemed no different from any other island in the New World. But in reality, it was the lair of Morgans, the head of the World Economic Times.
As a media figure in the New World, it was crucial to choose a location discreet enough to capture major news. This albatross was none other than Morgans, the one who had been hyping up Luffy in the original story.
In the office of the World Economic Times, Morgans held a paper in his hand.
The content above detailed the Whitebeard Pirates' impending journey to Marineford, the headquarters of the Navy.
"I never expected the Whitebeard Pirates to actually dare to go!"
"Ah, such a huge piece of news, and someone else got to it first!"
"How infuriating!"
Reading the contents of the newspaper, Morgans felt a headache coming on.
Such a significant piece of news, Morgans believed, if published by his own newspaper would surely elevate his reputation immensely.
Unfortunately, such an opportunity for fame had slipped through his fingers.
With a sigh, Morgans slowly folded the newspaper in his hands.
Just then, a news bird with a glint of intelligence in its eyes suddenly flew into Morgans office.
"Huh?"
A trace of displeasure flickered across Morgans' bird-like face.
"Barging into my office so recklessly, if you don't have good news, I'll stew you!"
These employees are becoming more and more unruly. Lately, it seems there's been a lack of discipline and management. Now, they even dare to intrude when I'm already upset.
Morgans had already decided how to stew this news bird and what seasonings to use.
"Chirp chirp..."
A human-like glimmer of fear flashed in the black pupils of the news bird.
It hurriedly spilled all the information it had gathered, chirping non-stop.
Its wings flapped incessantly.
This gibberish bird talk might be incomprehensible to others, but for Morgans, who had eaten the Zoan-Type: Albatross Fruit, there was no communication barrier. He could even transform into an albatross himself, let alone understand a bit of bird talk.
The news bird reported all the information gathered by employees from various places to Morgans.
As the news bird continued its report, Morgans' bird-like face grew increasingly excited.
After hearing the full report, his face was flushed with excitement, and he stared intently at the news bird. His voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
"Is everything you said true?"
"One of the legendary three great pirates, Golden Lion and one of the Four Emperors, Kaido, are also going to Marineford?"
These news birds had been raised by Morgans since they were young and would never lie to him. But this news was too shocking, making him unconsciously question it.
Those are legendary pirates!
Not only did they single-handedly wreak havoc in Mary Geoise, but they were also the first to escape from Impel Down.
They had been famous worldwide since the era of Rocks and Kaido, one of the current Four Emperors, the strongest creature on land, sea, and air.
His pirate crew is incredibly powerful.
"Chirp chirp..." The news bird, seeing Morgans' excitement, nodded enthusiastically.
"Coo coo coo!" Morgans laughed heartily.
"This is huge news!"
"Even bigger than the previous news about Whitebeard!"
"If this news gets out, it will definitely shock the entire sea!"
"No! The entire world!"
Morgans grew more and more excited as he thought about it. He quickly grabbed the paper and pen on his desk and began to write down what he had just heard, his hands trembling.
The headline, he felt, must capture the world's attention.
It had to make people want to read more, the anticipation had to be maximized.
"Hmm... Let's call it..."
"Shocking! Two Emperors and a Legendary Pirate going to Marineford! Is Marineford About to Fall?"
