I, the Pirate King of the East China Sea

The more you know, the more confusing things become.

The bigger the power, the more people who know the details of Whitebeard and the navy, the more convinced they are.

Characters standing at the top of the sea, especially those who know more secrets, such as White Beard and Warring States, must have profound meaning in their words and deeds.

How can there be a fake angel fruit that can alarm them?

then.

The headlines on the front page of the World Economic News once again set off a frenzy of discussion all over the world.

"Interview with Sea Thief King Sieg: The Truth About Angel Fruit and Another Piece!" "Sig's previous Tieba tabloids also had a wide audience, but in front of Shijingbao, they were just small talk.

This is the world's number one serious newspaper, and its influence and sales are not of the same order of magnitude as the newly emerging Tieba tabloid.

This is like a heavy hammer, beating in the heart of every newspaper reader.

"The angel fruit and another piece are also real!"

"According to Sig, someone faked his identity and sold an unknown angel fruit?"

Seeger did not say that the angel fruit that Blackbeard ate was 100% real, but this made the world more imaginative.

"Angel fruit, it's a real hammer! And its power is far beyond our previous expectations!"

"Just one angel fruit whose authenticity is not known can be sold for [-] million yuan, and it can also alarm White Beard and the general at the same time!"

Chapter 267 Using Rumors to Fight Rumors

Marine Headquarters Marine Fando.

In the conference room, generals from all parties were seated, and the front-page news from the World Economic News was spread out on the table.

General Sengoku clasped his hands, sat on his seat, and listened to the discussions around him with a solemn expression.

"The actions of the generals of the Warring States period have instead become the basis for the real existence of angel fruits... The outside world is rumored that there really are angel fruits in this world, which can tempt the four emperors and the navy, and send people to fight for them..."

"How could this be?"

"Is there still a way to block the news now? Or our navy took the initiative to refute the rumors?"

Some people proposed such a plan, but it was quickly overwhelmed by voices of veto.

Rumors won't work.

The navy's ability to control public opinion is actually not strong.

Otherwise, the navy would have prevented the spread of One Piece's last words long ago, so as to avoid the opening of the era of great pirates.

"No, the focus now is on the attack of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the pirate Tiki!"

Marshal Kong suddenly spoke and stopped the argument.

"The events of the Warring States Period have nothing to do with the Angel Fruit. But the Whitebeard Pirates did indeed send Tiki to fight for the Angel Fruit!"

"What does this mean? It means that White Beard believes in the existence of Angel Fruit!"

Kong's words made all the generals silent.

Whitebeard is not an ordinary person. Not only is he known as the strongest in the world, he is also a legendary pirate who has come all the way from the Rocks era.

Such a big man doesn't need too many secrets.

"Even the Whitebeard Pirates sent Tiki here, which is enough to show that Whitebeard attaches great importance to Angel Fruit!"

Kong said flatly.

"But Marshal Sora, Tiki is just an unknown pirate. If Whitebeard really values ​​Angel Fruit, why would he send him instead of other captains?"

Questions were raised.

"This is even more terrifying."

"According to the results of the investigation, Tiki has joined the Whitebeard Pirates for more than ten years. He is not weak, but he has not offered any rewards. This is a major mistake of our navy!"

General Warring States said in a deep voice.

Tiqi's words and actions that day left a deep impression on him.

A pirate who dared to shout "from now on is my time" in front of the admiral, but fled in a panic after finding out that he was invincible.

Based on the information collected by the navy, this zero-reward Tiki is probably the most difficult type, the real pirate.

"I have fought against Tiqi, this person must not be underestimated."

"Strength, ambition, and forbearance... If the Angel Fruit is real, then he will definitely grow into the future enemy of our navy."

"However, its shortcoming is that it is a bit arrogant. After getting the angel fruit, it gets carried away."

After thinking about it, Sengoku Sengoku made his judgment.

"It's an all-or-nothing gambler."

"If we want to deal with Tiqi in the future, maybe we can start from this shortcoming..."

"To sum up, this person's status in the Whitebeard Pirates must be extraordinary, but his reputation is not obvious. He is the best candidate among the Whitebeard Pirates to send to capture the Angel Fruit."

"Wait..." Kong suddenly said:

"Warring States, if it is true that Whitebeard sent Tiki to compete for the Angel Fruit..."

"So, why did Tiki eat the Angel Fruit in the end instead of bringing the Angel Fruit back to the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Kong's question made Warring States ponder for a while.

"Marshal Kong, I have two guesses."

"The first possibility is that this pirate named Tiki has selfish motives!"

As soon as these words came out, the generals were all thoughtful.

Pirates are lawless people, and it's perfectly normal to have selfishness.

"The second possibility..."

Zhan Guo narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression gradually became dignified.

"Tiki is indeed extraordinary. Perhaps Whitebeard's real purpose is to let Tiki eat the angel fruit."

The young generals were all stunned, but Kong et al., who were contemporary with the Warring States Period, frowned deeply.

They know Whitebeard.

It is impossible for ordinary pirates to give secret treasures like angel fruits to others.

But Whitebeard is different.

"If it's Whitebeard, he can do it."

"He has reached the pinnacle of pirates and is only interested in his family. If he plans to use Angel Fruit to raise his son Tiki...it makes sense."

Kong and Sengoku looked at each other, their faces gradually serious.

Tiki is by no means an ordinary pirate, and indeed deserves so much attention from Whitebeard.

"No matter which guess is true, this person cannot stay!"

Empty and decisive.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhan Guo again:

"Warring States, you have analyzed so much, you must have a way to deal with Tiqi, right?"

Hearing this, Zhan Guo smiled slightly.

"Our Navy may not be able to stop the spread of rumors, but this time, we may be able to use rumors to fight rumors."

"We can release the news: the real angel fruit has similar characteristics to the devil fruit, and it will be reborn after the death of the capable person."

"In this way, Tiqi will definitely become the target of public criticism!"

"This news must be spread quickly, before Tiki returns to the Whitebeard Pirates!"

……

The meeting at Navy Headquarters is over.

With the Marshal making the decision, the strategy of the Warring States Period was quickly spread to the naval territories and branches around the world.

Great Route Naval Branch G-2.

"Marshall D. Teach, so scary~"

Polusalino, then Lieutenant General of the G-2 branch, glanced at the order just sent from the headquarters and scratched his head.

"It's not just Tiki, Mr. Sengoku wants us to spread rumors quickly... It's really troublesome."

After lazily chanting a few words, Polusalino's eyes fell on the several branch non-commissioned officers in front of him.

"This task is entrusted to you."

"This...then what should we do specifically, Lieutenant General Polusalino?"

"Who knows?"

Polusalino dragged his tone and said lazily:

"Perhaps... go to a tavern in a nearby town? Pirates like to go to taverns. It may be useful to borrow the power of pirates."

The non-commissioned officers looked at each other and wiped off their sweat.

An hour later, in a bar in town.

Several naval non-commissioned officers changed into civilian clothes and gathered at the bar.

Hearing the noise around them and the bragging of the drinkers, they felt a little uncomfortable.

The bar is a place where pirates often come to, but they are relatively few officers.

Especially the professional instinct of being a navy makes them always subconsciously look at the appearance of the drinkers around them, and judge whether the other party is a pirate, and there is always a string in their hearts.

"We've got to have a couple of sips, not drinking in a bar, it looks too out of place, it'll give us away."

An officer lowered his voice and took a sip of his wine.
