Everything happening in the Pudora Kingdom Waters had already begun to spread through a small circle.
Big News Morgans had to get his newspaper printed and distributed before the news reached the wider world.
Only then could he profit from it!
As they spoke, Big News Morgans reached for another Den Den Mushi on his desk, ready to tell his staff to prepare.
But the reporter Smith stopped him.
"Chief, hold on!" Smith said with an eager grin.
"Let me finish my report. Then you can notify the others."
Big News Morgans rolled his eyes thoughtfully. "From the sound of it, Smith, you've got another bombshell?"
"Then tell me everything!"
"Stop keeping me in suspense!"
The urgency in Big News Morgans's voice was unmistakable.
He could hardly wait. He wanted the newspaper printed at once.
He was afraid a competitor might beat him to it!
Smith cleared his throat and gave a dismissive chuckle. "Chief, you don't need to worry about the other newspapers."
"No one in the Pudora Kingdom Waters has a better vantage point than I do."
"So no one could possibly have more information than me!"
"And I guarantee no one else could have photographed what I'm about to tell you!"
Smith wore an expression of supreme confidence, bordering on arrogance.
That confidence gave Big News Morgans pause.
"You're that sure, Smith?" Big News Morgans asked curiously.
"What's this bombshell? Let's hear it!"
Smith nodded and answered without hesitation. "The Chris Pirates aren't just in contact with the Red Hair Pirates..."
"They may also have ties to the Whitebeard Pirates!"
"The Whitebeard Pirates are anchored somewhere very secluded."
"Only from where I am could anyone get a clear photograph of them!"
Before Smith could finish, he heard a clatter from the other end of the line.
