"[System, sign in!]"
"[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have received 'Origin Explainer' * 1 (Purple)!]"
"Origin Explainer: A magical tool that looks like a laser pointer. It can convert what you want to say into a compressed package and transmit it directly into the target's mind."
"[Wow, it's finally here! Now I won't have to keep explaining things anymore!]"
"Tom!"
Hearing the call, Tom instantly darted out of the cat bed he had made for himself.
Seeing Tom, Zhong Chen immediately took out the Origin Explainer and shone it on Tom.
"Meow? (What's up?)"
Tom looked at Zhong Chen in confusion, not knowing why he was shining a laser pointer at him.
"[Hey! System, this isn't working!]"
"[Sigh! The Host's intelligence is truly worrying! Tom was summoned by you; he knows your origin perfectly well. What's the point of shining it on him!]"
"[...]"
Realizing he had done something foolish, Zhong Chen's old face couldn't help but flush red.
"It's nothing, go play!"
Hearing there was nothing, Tom nodded, then strutted out of the room with an arrogant, splay-footed gait.
"Huh? Why did he go out? Never mind him, he won't cause any major trouble anyway!"
Pirate World
"Chen Gege, are we going back now?"
The white-haired loli, Fuse Midori, looked at the cool and expressionless Zechien with a blank, cute expression.
"Yes, if we don't go back soon, the Chairwoman will get anxious!"
"Mmm mmm... Alright, it would be too scary if Teacher Shizu got angry!"
"That's right, that's right!"
The little lolis present all shivered as if they had thought of something.
Although Teacher Shizu wouldn't scold them or hit them.
But just thinking about being gently lectured by Teacher Shizu for three hours, anyone would find it terrifying.
"Commander! What should we do about the guy who escaped earlier!"
A Garrison captain asked Zechien with a serious expression.
"It's nothing! Just a bug, no need to pay attention to it!"
"Yes!"
Zechien glanced once more at this place called Wano Country, then turned and boarded the training ship.
As the training ship slowly departed, the many pirates of the Beast Pirates slowly dared to emerge.
"Wuwuwuwu... These plagues have finally left. If they didn't leave, I would have been tempted to commit suicide!"
"Where did these guys come from? Boss Kaido was easily severely injured!"
"Sigh! We still don't know if Boss Kaido is dead or alive!"
The many pirates vented their thoughts in a flurry of words, all expressing their joy at escaping their predicament.
Meanwhile, in Whitebeard's territory, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates were also discussing Kaido's disappearance.
"Pops! Kaido's disappearance might upset the long-standing balance of the New World?"
Marco the Phoenix, with his pineapple-shaped hair, spoke with a serious expression.
"Indeed, it's just that we don't know who could have driven Kaido out of Wano Country! He's probably not a simple character either."
Flower Sword Vista, with his gentleman's mustache, also offered his opinion.
"Hmm, no matter who did it, it has nothing to do with us now! The main point now is, has there been any news from Ace yet?"
Whitebeard Edward Newgate, seated in the main position, asked loudly, a flicker of worry in his eyes.
"Not yet! But you don't have to worry, Pops! I don't think Ace will be in trouble, after all, he's just going to pursue Teach!"
"That's right, that's right!"
Hearing his sons say this, Whitebeard not only wasn't reassured but felt the unease in his heart deepen.
"Marco!"
"Pops!"
The more anxious Whitebeard became, the more he finally decided to call Ace back.
"Send someone to find Ace and bring him back. Tell him to stop chasing Teach!"
"This..."
"Go find him!"
Whitebeard continued to speak to Marco with a serious expression.
"Yes! I'll send someone to find Ace and bring him back right away!"
Seeing that Pops had made up his mind, Marco said no more and simply nodded in agreement.
"What about Kaido's matter?"
"Hahaha! Don't worry about it. Even if someone defeated Kaido, what of it? I am Whitebeard!"
Whitebeard said loudly with a heroic expression, and Marco and the others also looked at Whitebeard with a sense of shared pride.
That's right, their Pops was the strongest man in the world; they had nothing to worry about.
Whole Cake Island
"Mama! Kaido has disappeared, should we take over his territory!"
Cracker asked the obese woman sitting in the main seat with an excited expression.
"Mama mama mama! The fact that Kaido was actually driven out of Wano Country by someone proves that the one who took his territory is no simple character!"
The obese woman was Big Mom, Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors, just like Whitebeard. Many people thought Big Mom was just an arrogant and conceited woman.
Actually, that wasn't the case; when she wasn't suffering from her eating disorder, she was actually very shrewd, after all, a fool couldn't become one of the Four Emperors.
"For now, let's not act. Let's wait and see! Someone will eventually be unable to resist making a move, after all, greedy pirates are everywhere!"
"Mama mama mama!"
"Mama is right!"
"Mama has great foresight!"
Katakuri looked at his brothers and sisters who were constantly flattering Mama, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Under Mama's high-pressure rule, his younger siblings lived in fear every day.
Thinking of this, a hint of severity flashed in Katakuri's eyes as he looked at Big Mom.
"Katakuri, why don't you say anything!"
Big Mom looked at the expressionless Katakuri and asked with a gloomy tone.
"Mama's decision is sound, so I have no objections!"
"Is that so!"
Big Mom looked at the expressionless Katakuri, her eyes narrowing slightly, wondering what he was thinking.
After a long while, Big Mom shifted her gaze away from Katakuri, and Katakuri, who had been stared at for so long, felt cold sweat soaking his back.
In fact, it wasn't just the other Four Emperors discussing Kaido's disappearance; news of Kaido's vanishing was spreading wildly all over the world.
But where was the owner of this news now? No one currently knew.
"So? Kaido was driven away by you, and then you've been lording it over his territory ever since?"
Zhong Chen looked in surprise at the many little lolis and Security Force members standing ramrod straight before him.
"Chen Gege, it's not lording it over; it's an internship! We've been to all the places, you know!"
Xiao Meihui explained with a serious expression.
"Meihui, oh! You can tell that explanation to Teacher Shizu, do you think she'll believe it?"
"Mmm mmm mmm... Then... then what should we do? Chen Gege, you have to help us! I don't want to be lectured again! It's so terrifying!"
Hearing Zhong Chen say this, the many little lolis finally panicked and quickly tugged at Zhong Chen's sleeve, pleading.
"Let me think of a way! Let's see if we can trick her!"
Just as Zhong Chen was thinking about how to fool Teacher Shizu, Zechien, who was standing to the side, spoke with a serious expression:
"Lord Chen! The Chairwoman said that the internship situation needs to be 100% truthful! No falsification allowed!"
"Uh... This isn't falsification; it's just a little embellishment, do you understand embellishment?"
Zhong Chen spoke to Zechien with an expression that said, 'You wouldn't understand.'
"But the Chairwoman asked me to supervise the entire internship process and report the actual situation to her!"
"Zechien, let me ask you a question..."
