A day after the fight between the partial Beast Pirates and the full Star Pirates, the world was shocked at the conclusion that Roya, the man who came onto the news only for a few months, has not only fended off a Yonko Commander, and an Admiral, but also an actual Yonko, none other than Kaido, the Strongest Creature.
Across the world, some people had denied the fact that a man could become a Yonko, and believed that it must have been fake, but most people, especially at the top of the world, believed this and now acknowledge another player who has officially entered the world's stage.
This had also resulted in the increase of Roya's bounty to 3.5 Billion, who has the lowest bounty out of all Yonkos, and the rest of his crew to have increased bounties, especially Issha, who is seen to be on par on or stronger than Roya, has a bounty of 2.5 Billion, surprising the common people that her starting bounty is already in the billions.

Sengiku, seeing the news of Roya becoming the Fifth Yonko, destabilising the balance of the three powers, is panicking a bit, and is rubbing her head, while Kizaru is also looking at the newspaper and eating noodles.
"I can't believe he already is being proclaimed as a Yonko, it's only been a few months since he appeared."
"Well, he did beat me in Loguetown...it was about time that he is now being discussed as a Yonko."
"Well, you told me yourself that he had some sort of temporary awakening, and we even saw the picture of him all bloody when he beat Katakuriko, so him beating you doesn't link to his overall power."
"Well...I guess he has now become too scary to keep in check, especially with his new crewmember being on par with him."
"....I hope Garpina and Aokiji don't do anything stupid, we might see a global threat that we can't control if they both fail to capitalise his crew's weakness after fighting the Beast Pirates."
"...What if they fail? Should we just stop chasing them after that?"
"Of course we can't...but if we do fail...then the World Government will most likely personally try to handle it. And for us... we'll have to send both you and Akainu, and maybe even Gion and Tsubaki for extra caution."
"Most likely, both Roya and Issha beat Kaido, which means two admirals are needed to contend with them, and we need to account for the rest of their crew."
"...You're awfully energetic about this matter, did Roya somehow fix that lazy attitude of yours?"
"...Maybe?"
Marijoa
In the depths of Pangaea Castle, the Six Elders have now seen the news of the proclamation of a Fifth Yonko, Roya Ryunnosuke, and are absolutely furious.
"That fool Kaido couldn't even defeat Roya, and he even has a powerful crewmember under his flag."
"I heard that Garpina and Aokiji are close to them...I believe Garpina wouldn't risk letting him go, even if he has her granddaughter on board."
"We still shouldn't risk it, should we send a holy knight as well?"
"Not yet...but if they do lose, we'll send the holy knights to take care of it."
"How do we know where they are heading next? The only places they could head to are the New World, Paradise and the South Blue."
"It doesn't matter where they head to next, we need to put them down now, or we will need to reveal ourselves in order to fully annihilate them."
"If he gets even stronger than a Yonko, then he must have a hidden lineage, no one without a specific lineage has ever touched the world's ceiling."
"I highly doubt it, but his powers are not linked to a devil fruit's, unless there is a devil fruit in this world that we have never seen."
"Forget this matter for now, if they fail, I'll inform Shamrock to get ready to capture or kill Roya."
Moby Dick
Newgate, along with the rest of the crew, are surprised at the fact that the Star Pirates had defeated the Beast Pirates, and even being announced as the fifth Yonko besides themselves.
"This world is going to flip over, he has already became a Yonko, especially being so young."
"Do you think he has the power to contend against you right now?"
The crew look towards Newgate wearily, while she thinks about how to answer that question, when she is extremely sick and is dying slowly.
"Well, of course that brat is no match for me, even he had to beat Kaido with his strongest crewmember, and barely survived."
"That's right! You're still the strongest Okaa-san!"
While the crew continue to celebrate about Newgate still being the strongest person in the world, Newgate starts to think about the extraordinary increase in power from Roya in only a couple of months.
'Have I really became that weak? I don't even think I can beat him after that image of him clashing with Kaido.'
'Can I even beat Issha? Well, that's what happens when you get too old for your own liking.'
Whole Cake
"KAIDOOOO! YOU BRAT!"
Big Mom, after seeing the news, is almost at breaking point at seeing Kaido, who she believes to be much stronger than Roya, losing to him."
"I-I need to breathe. Roya and that other woman, Issha or whatever, can't be stronger than Kaido."
"Mom, they most likely used under-handed tactics against her, that's the most likely reason as to why Kaido lost."
"True, and Roya looked looked like he had an awakening..."
"What do we do know, Mom?"
"Wait...and we need to team up with the Beast Pirates, I have a feeling he will have a much stronger crew the next time we meet."
Baltigo Island
"I can't believe it, he's already a Yonko, and is still has so much growth to go through."
Ryoko, sitting down in her seat, smiles at seeing the revelation of her daughter's captain becoming a Yonko.
"Ryoko-san, is that the person who is stirring up the world, the one you always talk about?"
"Yes it is, Sabina, and he's the driving force against the World Government besides us."
"Is it?"
"Anyways, go back to training, you still have lots of improvements to work on."
Red Force
"Dahahahahaha! I didn't expect Roya to become a Yonko already....but sadly this will cause the world to flip."
"Well, I guess there is nothing we can do, he's getting chased by everyone, even the World Government are preparing to ambush him."
Shanks, drunk after partying with her crew, has mixed emotions about Roya becoming the fifth Yonko, while Beckham sits next to her.
*sighs*"He's growing way too fast, his crew is able to go toe-to-toe with the Beast Pirates, even if the rest of Kaido's crew stayed in Onigashima."
"He has the Ope Ope No Mi user, and several other strong people, like Zora and Lucy, it looks like with time, this crew will become the strongest."
"We'll see about that, hopefully they fulfil their potential."
