You're Trying to Fob Me Off with This?

Whitebeard's guess had indeed been correct.

At Onigashima, the Beasts Pirates' base in Wano Country, Kaido was in a towering rage.

He stared fixedly at the group photo in the newspaper. The arrangement in the picture made his blood boil. His own daughter was not standing in the center, and that so-called "Wangcai" title had dealt a deep blow to his pride.

Kaido's eyes flew wide open, veins bulging on his forehead as he instantly tore the newspaper to shreds. Scraps of paper drifted down like snowflakes.

Then, unable to wait any longer, he took out a Den Den Mushi from his person, his fingers trembling slightly with rage as he dialed the number.

The moment Morgans picked up, Kaido roared like an erupting volcano. "Morgans, you bastard! I paid you two billion, and this is how you Do Work?"

Morgans was utterly baffled by this sudden outburst and hurriedly replied, "Beasts Kaido, I already inserted the information you requested into your daughter's profile. Is there some problem now?"

Kaido could hardly believe his ears and roared again, "You still dare say there's no problem? Why isn't my daughter standing in the center in the newspaper?"

Morgans sighed helplessly and tried to explain, "Isn't she just a little off to the side? You can still see your daughter clearly!"

However, Kaido could not accept such an explanation at all. He shouted himself hoarse, "No! Why can that red-haired girl stand in the center? Did he pay more than I did?"

Morgans answered honestly, "He didn't pay me anything. He was standing in the middle to begin with, so naturally he ended up in the middle of the photo!"

Hearing that, Kaido laughed in fury, though his laughter was filled with boundless rage. "You bastard took my money, and you're trying to fob me off with this?"

Morgans knew full well that Kaido was deliberately picking a fight, but he also understood that he could not completely infuriate this overlord of the seas. Lowering his tone, he asked, "Then what do you want to do, Lord Kaido?"

Kaido gave his order without hesitation. "Hurry up and edit that red-haired girl out of the photo, then republish it!"

Morgans helplessly covered his forehead after hearing that.

He knew that if he truly did as Kaido asked, it would not only consume enormous manpower and resources, but also make the entire world doubt the credibility of Big News reports. That was something he could never accept, so he could only refuse with gritted teeth. "Make another request. I can't agree to this one."

Kaido laughed in extreme anger. "If you can't even change a photo, then changing a title is even more out of the question, right?"

Morgans immediately nodded. "Right."

Kaido instantly roared, "Then why did you slap the title Wangcai onto my daughter? Don't you know what that title means? It means Guard dog! Guard dog! Do you understand?"

Faced with Kaido's string of furious roars, Morgans seemed somewhat nonchalant. Picking at his earwax, he said, "I know. You never told me to change the title, so I thought you liked it!"

Kaido was beside himself with rage. "Like my ass! Can't you think for yourself? If I called you Wangcai, would you want it?"

Morgans answered decisively, "No!"

Kaido pressed on in a sinister tone, "Why does he have that title?"

Morgans said slowly, "You'll have to ask your brother, Gol D. Allen, about that!"

Kaido's face was full of disbelief. "Allen paid you to use that title?"

Morgans shook his head. "No. The World Government told me to use it. Mainly because they offered too much—I simply couldn't refuse. Hahaha~"

Lost in his smugness, Morgans failed to notice Kaido's face had turned black as the bottom of a pot.

Then Kaido's vicious voice came through. "Are you looking to die?"

Frightened into breaking out in a cold sweat by those murderous words, Morgans hurriedly said, "The next time there's news about them, I'll change his information back."

Only after hearing Morgans's assurance did Kaido reluctantly hang up.

Morgans let out a sigh of relief, secretly thanking his luck. He absolutely could not offend that great lord Kaido beyond repair. With that stubborn, one-track mind of his, Kaido would definitely keep hunting him down.

Meanwhile, inside the palace on Amazon Lily, Hancock's mood was like the sea before a storm—oppressive and heavy.

She stared intently at the latest issue of the newspaper in her hands. The icy aura radiating from her made Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold, standing nearby, shiver inwardly.

Seeing her sister remain stiffly frozen with the newspaper clutched in Both hands, Sandersonia grew worried and cautiously said, "Sister, Brother-in-law may have only let those two girls hitch a ride because he pitied them. They might not even know each other!"

Hancock slowly raised her head and fixed her sister with an icy stare. "They don't know each other? Could strangers hug each other? Do you even believe what you just said?"

Intimidated by her sister's presence, Sandersonia stammered for a long while before finally forcing out, "Fine, they really are having an affair!"

Hearing the certainty in her sister's voice, Hancock was instantly overwhelmed by a tidal wave of grievance. She hurriedly took out the Mystic Mirror from her person and prepared to contact Allen.

Her fingers moved urgently across the Mystic Mirror, but after trying to connect for a long time, it kept showing that he was on a call.

Hancock's expression grew increasingly ugly, and the fury in her heart blazed wildly. In a burst of anger, she threw the Mystic Mirror away.

But the instant she did, she regretted it and immediately rushed over to see whether it had been damaged.

And Allen really was on a video call with someone else at the time.

After seeing Allen's seemingly arrogant appearance in the newspaper, Gion immediately video-called him to demand what he was trying to do. Her tone was full of reproach. "You promised you wouldn't flirt with young girls. Why aren't you keeping your word?"

Allen looked helpless and could only patiently explain that he and Nana were not in that kind of relationship.

But Gion did not believe him at all and retorted sharply, "Not that kind of relationship? Her gaze at you was practically dripping with affection, and you still say there's nothing between you?"

Allen went to great lengths to explain. Just as neither side was willing to back down, Yamato could not stand it anymore. She snatched the Mystic Mirror away and said that they had not slept together yet. After adding a few more words, Gion finally agreed to believe them.

However, she also requested to ride around on a sword, and Allen readily agreed, promising that he would take Gion out alone next time.

After ending the call, Allen discovered that Hancock had called him more than a dozen times. This is bad, he thought, immediately calling her back.

The moment the call connected, Hancock said in a tearful voice, "Darling, why didn't you answer my video calls? Are you abandoning me?"

Allen hurriedly explained gently, detailing that he and Nana were not in that kind of relationship. He coaxed her softly for quite a while before finally making Hancock smile through her tears and settling this emotional storm.

After hanging up, Allen let out a long breath. Relationship problems really are complicated and unpredictable.
