Centered on Ye Yu, an overwhelming pressure instantly formed all around him.
Before the Almighty Push even reached Jack the Drought, Jack had already sensed that terrifying power through Observation Haki. It was the dreadful sensation unique to Conqueror's Haki!
The first release had merely been to clear out the fodder... Compared to before, this release of Conqueror's Haki was far more powerful!
No matter how stupid Jack was, he finally realized that Ye Yu had not deceived him. Ye Yu's mastery of Conqueror's Haki far surpassed that of ordinary people!
Without giving Jack much time to think, the dense Conqueror's Haki erupted in an instant. Jack the Drought, standing beside Ye Yu, was blasted away, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth as he crashed heavily onto the deck!
At that moment, flocks of birds passed through the sky, pulling a mysterious Birdhouse behind them.
Inside the Birdhouse was a mysterious birdman wearing a black top hat adorned with a red-and-white feather. He wore a light blue shirt, a yellow bow tie, and red-and-white checkered trousers. Holding a camera aimed at the warship below, he gaped in shock and excitement.
This man was one of the emperors of the underworld, the president of the World Economy News Paper, and the man known as Big News Morgans!
At this moment, Morgans no longer had his usual composed expression.
"One of the Beast Pirates' three All-Stars, Jack the Drought, was defeated by Ye Yu in a single exchange?"
"This is Ye Yu, captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' Zero Division!"
"I knew I bet right! Ye Yu is absolutely going to become a major figure in the news world! Hahaha!"
Morgans burst into excited laughter.
Ever since Morgans had obtained firsthand information about Ye Yu wiping out the Blackbeard Pirates, he had developed a strong interest in Ye Yu.
Not even twenty years old, possessing an extraordinary understanding of Conqueror's Haki, the mysterious captain of Zero Division, and now this sudden voyage to sea—there was simply too much information.
With his keen nose for news honed over many years, Morgans determined that this kid Ye Yu would surely stir up towering waves across the world in the future!
Wiping out the Blackbeard Pirates was only the beginning. In the future, he would definitely be able to dig up even more explosive news from Ye Yu!
Thus, after Morgans spent the night writing an article about Ye Yu's annihilation of the Blackbeard Pirates and publishing it throughout the world, he set out with his elite subordinates in a Birdhouse pulled by birds and hot-air balloons to search for Ye Yu's whereabouts.
His goal was to continue writing reports about Ye Yu.
"My luck is incredible! Hahaha! It only took two or three days to find Ye Yu's trail, and I was even gifted such explosive news! Hahaha!" The usually composed Morgans was filled with excitement, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
"That's right, our luck is ridiculously good! President, it's been so long since I last got to photograph such explosive news. My hands are itching!" a middle-aged man said excitedly.
He was none other than the former head of the photography department, who had joined the World Economy News Paper after being dismissed by the Marines. One of Morgans's trusted subordinates, he was Photo King Kuriz, nicknamed the Flame Photographer.
"Kuriz, did you capture the instant Jack the Drought was defeated?" Morgans asked excitedly.
"Don't worry, President Morgans. We've worked together for so many years. Do you still doubt my skills?" Kuriz said confidently, patting his chest.
Through Kuriz's snapshots, Ye Yu's relaxed expression, Jack the Drought's miserable appearance, and the instant Ye Yu unleashed that powerful energy had all been captured.
Hearing Kuriz's answer, Morgans revealed an excited expression.
"Good, good, good. The cover of this news issue will be selected from the photos you just took. Keep shooting; don't miss any important close-ups!" Morgans said, unable to contain his excitement and satisfaction.
If this news were packaged properly, a conservative estimate put the total revenue it could bring his news agency at five billion Berries!
After saying that, Morgans and his elite team once more aimed their cameras at Ye Yu, filming the final moments of the incident.
Everyone was curious about what would happen to the arrogant Jack the Drought.
Unlike the Blackbeard Pirates, Jack the Drought had a powerful figure behind him—the Four Emperors who ruled the seas, Kaido of the Beast Pirates!
Kaido, the world's strongest creature, who was said to be impossible to kill! A figure on the same level as Ye Yu's captain, Whitebeard!!!
If Ye Yu rashly killed Jack the Drought at such a critical moment, it would likely trigger a war between the Beast Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates!
At a time when the Whitebeard Pirates were planning to rescue Ace from Marine Headquarters, that would not be good news!
Within the camera's frame, Ye Yu slowly walked up to Jack the Drought and looked down at him. Jack lay on the ground, having already lost his ability to fight, like a stray dog!
"Jack, throwing away your life over a few worthless Artificial Devil Fruits... You really are stupid." A trace of mockery appeared at the corner of Ye Yu's mouth.
Jack the Drought was called Ironhead Kid and Ship-Relying King. It seemed those names were not given for nothing!
Whenever he saw a ship, he wanted to sail up and attack it. Running into Ye Yu meant Jack was unlucky. Ye Yu had no intention of showing mercy to such a violent and foolish man as Jack the Drought!
Jack's eyes widened. "Kid, even if you won, you still can't kill me!"
"Oh? Let's hear it." Ye Yu smiled faintly, curious what this idiot Jack would say to save his life before death!
"Kid... do you know why the Four Emperors have countless conflicts and almost daily small-scale clashes, yet have never developed into a full-scale war?"
"Because on these seas, there is an unwritten rule among the Four Emperors!"
"Unless absolutely necessary, they cannot kill the core members of hostile factions. Once that red line is crossed, it means war has arrived!"
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes. Seeing that Ye Yu had stopped attacking, Jack the Drought became even more arrogant.
"Because of the Ace incident, the group among all the Four Emperors that least wants to start a war with another Emperor's crew is your Whitebeard Pirates!"
"So you simply can't kill me! Killing me, Jack the Drought, will cost the lives of your entire Whitebeard Pirates! Hahahaha!" Jack the Drought raised his head proudly again and laughed wildly at Ye Yu.
The World Economy News Paper above the battlefield also noticed the unusual situation around Ye Yu and revealed strange expressions.
