The Whole World's Attention
"Even if you had a hundred lives, you wouldn't dare lie to me." Kaido said bluntly, his words a blatant insult to Doflamingo's dignity as a powerful figure.
If this were the first time they were negotiating, anyone with a slightly short temper would have already been provoked into a rage by Kaido's words.
But Doflamingo not only knew Kaido's strength well, but had also become accustomed to passively accepting the 'Monster's' unpredictable temper.
"Alright, give me the address. I've never seen such a cunning thief in my life." Kaido's anger flared, and he roared to the sky, "Just you wait! 'King of Knights,' I'm coming over here to snap your head off!"
The sound was so loud that it even distorted the invisible atmosphere. The powerful infrasound waves caused the Den Den Mushi to automatically hang up the phone and faint, its eyes rolling back in its head.
It was precisely because of this extremely weak tolerance that Arthur was hesitant to use the Image Den Den Mushi for live streaming, and instead had M. Caesar Cullen create the Image Bird, which was capable of live streaming.
Otherwise, a clash of Conqueror's Haki would be enough to shut down the Den Den Mushi's live stream.
The New World.
A large island called 'Weilasituodi'.
Here you'll find mountains and water, with several peaks of varying sizes surrounding a snow-white Iceburg.
In a climate that is not winter, this Iceburg is simply an incredible creation.
Even in the New World, a sea full of unique islands, it is an extremely rare place.
Here you can enjoy the warmth of summer and the chill of winter.
With its mild climate, it's an island perfectly suited for development.
In fact, this place is indeed intended for development.
In fact, this place is indeed intended for development.
This island, 'Weilasituodi', is a large uninhabited island.
It's less of an uninhabited island and more of a place that's been bought by someone.
The buyer was Gilder Tezzolo, the "Gild Tesoro".
As for who the seller is?
That's 'Red-Hair' Shanks!
An island doesn't have a specific owner; what matters is whose sea area it's located in.
If it's not in the waters ruled by the Four Emperors, then it's a place anyone can land on.
Even if a sea area is ruled by Four Emperors, it is unclaimed if it does not fly the flag of one of the Four Emperors.
However, if one wants to seize this island, one must ask the person who rules this sea area.
Meanwhile, Gild Tesoro, the "Gild Tesoro," went to great lengths to please the "King of Knights" and erase his past negative influence.
Not only did he personally visit 'Red-Hair' Shanks, spending a large sum of money, but because 'Weilasituodi' is one of the three routes through the New World Pointer and one of the islands that will be passed, he also had to agree to allow the sea monsters passing through this island to use their magnetic field.
Otherwise, Red-Hair wouldn't sell Shanks to him.
Gild Tesoro, the 'Gild Tesoro' who knew the purpose of the island, readily agreed to these requests.
They didn't even consider what would happen if the island sank during the battle between the "King of Knights" and Kaido, and the "King of Knights" was defeated or accidentally died. How would he then face the wrath of "Red-Hair" Shanks?
In an effort to salvage his image in the eyes of the "King of Knights," the "Gild Tesoro" Gild Tesoro is going to great lengths.
The most striking feature of 'Weilasituodi' is the tip of its large Iceburg.
"Arthur, a tsunami has appeared! Could it be Kaido of the Beasts?"
Sitting on a snow-covered cliff, Arthur's white knight's uniform was covered with a thick layer of snow. He held a Den Den Mushi in his hand, dressed in a trench coat, and spoke in a tense tone, mimicking Nami's expression on the other end.
"Ah... Remember to protect Hancock and Robin, and keep them in Hollowfied state at all times." Arthur nodded slightly and gave them his instructions.
"Don't worry, we're back to back now," Nami on the other end laughed. "Should we turn on the live Image Bird?"
Upon hearing this, Arthur looked up at the sky where a few white clouds floated.
With Observation Haki (A++), one can clearly see the six motionless Image Birds more than 5,000 meters above the ground.
It was extremely small, hidden in the thin white clouds, and was constantly ready to capture images of the islands below from different directions.
"Activate it!" Arthur said softly, watching the roaring tsunami approaching from afar, its infrasound waves audible even from over twenty nautical miles away.
"Learn--"
Thousands of nautical miles away from the 'Weilasituodi', three women, back to back, stared intently at the screen in the middle of the remote control on the deck of the 'East Starlion'. As the tsunami drew closer, they immediately turned on the live broadcast.
Chapter 240 The World's Attention
'Sizzle sizzle... whoosh!!'
Just as Nami and her two friends started their live stream, on all the islands around the world, including the New World, the Grand Line, and the Four Seas, where live stream screens had been installed for free in the previous world, sparks suddenly surged on the tall, previously black screens, and the blurry images flickered continuously.
As if receiving a signal, the entire 'Weilasituodi' island was soon displayed on the screen with crystal clarity.
After the image was displayed, it quickly split into six segments, showing different perspectives.
Four identical images were pasted on the left and right sides of the screen.
The central, largest section of the image is divided in two, showing towering snow-capped mountains and a roaring tsunami.
That represents the perspective of the two main characters, signifying the upcoming great battle.
"Hey! I can see it! What's that?"
Is this a recording or a live stream?
That island looks familiar.
"Isn't that 'Weilasituodi'?!"
"..."
"There's a picture now, it's a real image on the screen!"
"Wow, that's amazing! It can play without Image Den Den Mushi? Whose invention is this?"
"..."
"..."
Almost the instant the image appeared, it sparked a discussion around the world.
The people of the New World, however, are focused on this island.
With their broad perspectives, they were simply curious about the purpose of those people building these screens that resembled Image Den Den Mushi).
As for the people of the Grand Line and the four seas, they were amazed by this technology.
However, these 20 billion yuan were not spent in vain.
The first live broadcast certainly attracted worldwide attention.
Wherever there are crowds, people will subconsciously stop and look at the screen, which is as tall as a building and can be viewed from all sides 360 degrees.
Doflamingo, together with "Big News Morgans" Morgans and "Gild Tesoro" Gild Tezzo, installed these live-streaming screens all over the world, which has already sparked heated discussions.
It just never lit up, and since it bore the logos of the 'World Economy News Paper' newspaper and 'Gulan Tezzolo,' no one dared to touch it.
The fact that the screen has now lit up for the first time not only confirms that it is live streaming equipment, but also indicates that there will definitely be very important live streaming content.
As a result, the entire world's attention was drawn to it.
And today, they are destined to broaden their horizons through this screen.
Witness the true power of the world's elite!
'Boom--!'
The tsunami roared in, wave after wave crashing against the rocks.
The tide submerged the beach and seeped into a small part of the jungle before slowly receding.
Fortunately, this is a large island; if it were a small island, it would have been submerged long ago.
"Where are you?! 'King of Knights,' where are you, you brat?!"
After the tsunami receded, a gigantic figure appeared, and the live-streaming Image Bird high in the sky immediately magnified the image, clearly capturing the deafening roar that resounded throughout the world.
"'Beasts' Kaido... Kaido!!"
"It's Kaido! Kaido of the Four Emperors!"
Why is Kaido there? Is he there to challenge 'Red-Hair' Shanks?
"Wait! Did Kaido just shout 'King of Knights'? Could it be...?"
"Wait! Did Kaido just shout 'King of Knights'? Could it be...?"
"Kaido is going to fight the King of Knights at 'Weilasituodi'?!"
"..."
Countless discussions resounded throughout the world.
As if sensing their thoughts, Nami and the other two girls immediately switched back to the live stream's view of Arthur through the Image Bird's perspective.
Seeing the other half of the Iceburg image occupied by the world-renowned superstar 'King of Knights', those who already had some ideas became even more excited.
Could it be that the person broadcasting the live stream wanted to present this epic battle to the world?
Thinking of this, people who were eating or busy put down their work and crowded together.
The hotel owners opened their doors and brought out all sorts of alcoholic beverages.
Some of the more extreme individuals even set up gambling games.
·· ···Requesting flowers····· ····
If it were a battle, would the 'King of Knights' win, or Kaido, the [Strongest in Single Combat], win?!
New World, formerly the Navy G-1 Branch, is now the location of the Neo Marine Headquarters.
Fleet Admiral's Office!
"Hiss..." Smoke billowed as Sakazuki, one of the former Three Admirals known as 'Akainu,' stood by the office window, puffing on a cigar, staring at the screen hanging on a building, focusing on the image of Kaido and Arthur. He said in a deep voice, "Has that brat grown to this level?"
Skaski had a very deep impression of the 'King of Knights'.
Sakazuki immediately recognized the astonishing talent of that kid with the golden light that could make him Immunity to Whitebeard's world-destroying power.
0
Just as he had expected, after the Paramount War, this little brat who had shone brightly on the battlefield...
Despite facing a perilous situation that no one believed in, they fearlessly entered the New World.
In less than two years, he not only established himself as the World's Greatest Bounty Hunter, but also won the title of the World's Greatest Swordsman.
A new generation of 'Red the Aloof'!
These achievements have made people overlook the fact that this kid has only been in the industry for less than three years.
Absolutely terrifying!
The New World, the seas ruled by Whitebeard Pirates.
"Pops, it's Kaido and that 'King of Knights' guy!"
"Gurara~ Go investigate where those two guys are!"
"Pops, it's said to be a large, uninhabited island called 'Weilasituodi' in the seas ruled by 'Red-Hair'!"
"At full speed, how long would it take to get there?"
"It will take at least fifteen days, Pops!"
"Hmph! What a lucky guy!"
