Chapter 29: 029 Pirate Nemesis, Supreme Sharp Sword
Luckily, this article came from a trustworthy Marine. If it were from a newspaper, they'd suspect it was paid for.
"Putting the article aside, Lynch did a great job."
"Guarding Reverse Mountain and killing all pirates. Even if it's just for half a month, it's a heavy blow to pirate reputation."
"I agree with Zephyr."
After a moment's thought, Sengoku ordered, "Someone, notify Morgans and have him publish this in the newspaper."
This kind of thing that can enhance a Marine's reputation and deter pirates who are ready to take action, how can we not spread it widely.
Although Marine also has its own newspaper, due to the lack of Newsbird transportation, it is unrealistic to deliver it to every corner of the world in a short time.
It is precisely because of Morgans' terrifying control over the news that he has been threatened by the World Government many times.
…
At the same time, there was a small island full of ancient trees.
Through the weathered exterior of one ancient tree, there's many silhouette of busy staff inside.
They racked their brains, reading the reports from their subordinates over and over again, and thinking about how to write better news.
"Hahaha, big news! Big news!"
A white-haired birdman suddenly ran out of the office, screaming excitedly.
"Boss, what happened today? Are you stimulated?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen him like this in a long time."
All the employees looked at Morgans curiously.
"Snap."
Morgans slapped a piece of Marine information on his subordinate's forehead.
"Quick! Hurry up and print, we will definitely sell this issue on the newspaper!"
"What kind of news is it that makes you so excited, boss?"
The subordinate muttered as he took the information from his forehead, then his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Guarding Reverse Mountain!"
This action might not seem big, but it strikes at the very roots of the Grand Line pirate influx.
Without new pirates pouring in from all over the world, the number of pirates in the Grand Line will become fewer and fewer.
If this continues, the impact will be monumental.
"It's only for a month or two. If the blockage continues, even the Four Emperors will react. These new pirates are their reserve troops."
Currently, three of the Four Emperors of the Grand Line are confirmed, with only one position still in contention.
The sea's power dynamics are basically set, a reality the world government can't change.
"Is Marine determined to scare the pirates..."
The efficiency of the Morgans newspaper was extremely high.
In less than half an hour, fresh newspapers are delivered around the world by hundreds of thousands of Newsbirds.
North Blue.
A young man stood on the beach, a sword in one hand and a newspaper in the other, staring at the boat tied up in the sea, frozen in place.
"Um... everyone, I think being a pirate is too dangerous. Let's go back to herding cattle."
"Agree!"
"I agree. Who knew Reverse Mountain would be the end of pirates."
As a result, this new pirate group, which had yet to set sail, was destroyed before it began.
Compared with North Blue, West Blue is no less than a big tsunami.
"What?! Bloody hand Baal was killed by the Marines not even half a day after he went to the Grand Line!"
The pirate looked at the newspaper in his hand and trembled.
Baal the Bloody hand, the uncrowned king of West Blue, has left his terrifying influence in the bones of every West Blue pirate.
Such a terrifying pirate was caught before he could even settle into the Grand Line.
"Grand Line, it turns out to be such a scary place..."
That day, countless West Blue pirates swore never to set foot in the Grand Line again.
At the same time, they also deeply remembered the name Lynch.
For the first time in history, Lynch had earned himself the title of "Pirate Nemesis," Hobert Lynch.
East Blue.
The illiterate little Luffy was attracted by Dadan who was reading a newspaper next to him.
What Luffy didn't know was that it was Lynch appearance that strengthened Garp's determination to train Luffy.
This led to Luffy being sent to Bandit Dadan more than two years earlier in advance.
As the only one who could read among the bandits, Dadan proudly read aloud the contents to the boy beside her.
"Wow~ This Brother Marine is so awesome, just like my grandpa."
Little Luffy looked at the picture in the newspaper of Lynch smashing a pirate ship with a knife, and he was fascinated.
New World.
Whole Cake Island.
"Haahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha~"
Big Mom laughed loudly as she ate the basin-sized cake in one gulp,her eyes suddenly turning dangerous.
"Marines have been reaching further and further. They need to learn a lesson."
"Raisin, Garrett, go kill this Marine and bring back some food."
Charlotte Raisin, the 33rd son of the Charlotte family.
Charlotte Garrett, Big Mom's 18th daughter.
"Yes, mother."
The two knelt down on one knee and left quickly.
…
It's been half a month since the newspaper incident. Lynch's fame has grown,
In addition, there are fewer pirates who dare to come toward the Reverse Mountain.
This made Lynch complain to Sengoku that the newspaper was distributed too early and made him unable to get more sin points!
He saw that his points had reached a terrifying [121,530 points].
A total of 120,000 points!
He must know that the Logia Gas-Gas Fruit, which appeared once before, costs only 188,888 points.
An ordinary flintlock gun can be bought for almost five thousand points.
If he exchanged it for fine wheat bread, he could get millions of loaves, enough to feed a small country.
With a 10% Price discount coupon, he could immediately buy a Logia Devil Fruit.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have completed guarding Reverse Mountain for a month. Would you like to claim your reward?]
"Claim."
After working hard for a month, he will naturally not show mercy when it's time to spend money.
It just so happens that the products that were launched today are pretty good and can be called luxurious.
[ Twice Resulf Training Scroll (One Week): 1000 points]
Unlike the previous scrolls that focused solely on physical training, this one enhances both physical conditioning and swordsmanship, and can even improve Haki abilities.
[Paramecia·Gravity Fruit: 155,555 points]
[Supreme Sharp Sword·Demon Cutter: 160,000 points]
[Storage Ring (2m length, width, height): 3,000 points]
[10 Oranges: 1 point each]
[Heart Cross•Demon Sword Power: 100,000 points]
"Damn it, I hate being short on point when I need it."
The store was too luxurious, and Lynch didn't hate anything but his lack of point.
Needless to say, he used the 10% Price discount coupon to buy the Supreme sword, the most cost-effective option.
The original price was 160,000, but after using the discount coupon, it only cost 16,000.
With a flash of light, a completely black knife appeared in Lynch's hand.
The blade gleamed with a sheen like dragon scales in the sunlight, each scale sharply defined.
A fierce black dragon motif adorned its hilt, seemingly roaring in silence.
At its pommel, three colored gems glinted—one red, one green, and one blue.
"Good sword!"
