Moby Dick.

"Dad, dad, it's not good, it's a big deal."

Marco hurriedly ran towards Whitebeard with the newspaper in his hand, shouting while running, with an unconcealable shock on his face.

"Um?"

Seeing this, Whitebeard, who was drinking, couldn't help frowning. "Marco, what happened?"

"Look, Dad."

Marco handed the newspaper to his father.

Whitebeard took a look.

Boom!

A terrifying aura erupted, sweeping all directions.

Many members on the deck turned pale in an instant.

Whitebeard didn't pay attention, his eyes still fixed on the contents of the newspaper.

There was a picture.

The content of the picture was very simple.

It was the body of the Golden Lion, with a hole in the heart.

Below was a news report from Morgans.

[A few days ago, the World Government revoked the membership status of the Germa Kingdom as a member of the World Government and launched a Buster Call against the Germa Kingdom on the grounds that Germa touched upon the history of 800 years ago. This Buster Call was led by Marine Headquarters Admiral Akainu, along with several Vice Admirals, and completely wiped the Germa Kingdom off the map.]

[I initially thought that this Buster Call would be the same as the previous Ohara incident, with no surprises.]

[However, the Golden Lion suddenly appeared and attempted to take away the king of the Germa Kingdom, Vinsmoke Judge, but was killed on the spot by the Marines led by Akainu.]

[Former Flying Admiral, Golden Lion—Shiki, Lion Fruit ability user.]

[After Roger the Pirate King, another legend has fallen!!]

Simple words.

The reason for the death of the Golden Lion was introduced.

Below were some more pictures.

The Buster Call fleet.

Akainu.

And the figure of Kaos standing on the deck.

But there was only one photo related to Kaos.

On the other hand, there were many photos of Akainu and others.

It was clear that Morgans still cared about his own life. He didn't dare to say too much, nor even mention Kaos much in the news reports.

He was afraid that if he accidentally angered Kaos, it would lead to his own death.

Ordinary people may be shocked by the death of the Golden Lion.

So would Whitebeard.

But after the shock, Whitebeard's eyes fell on the pictures and finally locked onto the picture of Kaos.

"Dad, stop your Conqueror's Haki, the brothers will die soon."

Marco, the closest to Whitebeard, could hardly bear the aura emanating from him. His face turned pale, and he couldn't help but remind his father.

Hearing this, Whitebeard came back to his senses. He hadn't noticed his aura leaking out and quickly withdrew it.

Then, he continued to look at the newspaper in his hand.

His expression was serious.

"Shiki..."

Once upon a time on the seas,

He, Shiki, and Roger were both friends and rivals.

Especially since he and Shiki had once been on the same crew, he knew more than anyone how strong and courageous the Golden Lion was.

If the Golden Lion had died during the events of the original story, he might have taken it lightly and not been shocked.

But at this moment, it was unbelievable.

"Father, I didn't expect the Golden Lion to die at Akainu's hands. This Marine Admiral is really strong, is it because of his Logia ability?" Marco couldn't help but ask upon seeing his father's solemn expression.

Hearing this, Whitebeard immediately sneered in dismissal. "Akainu? A kid who plays with lava. Maybe he's strong, but how could he kill Shiki?"

"Not to mention, that guy's ability to escape is top-notch. With his Lion Fruit ability, if he wanted to run, no one but that Marine kid Kizaru could catch up to him."

"And even Kizaru couldn't kill Shiki unless there was a storm."

Whitebeard knew all too well that Shiki's greatest weakness was storms.

Once there was a storm,

Shiki's abilities would be greatly weakened.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated and forced to flee due to a natural disaster during the battle at Edd War.

And even ended up with a rudder stuck in his head.

"But, it doesn't seem like there was a storm mentioned in this newspaper?" Marco scratched his head.

"Yeah, no storm."

Whitebeard nodded, put down the newspaper, took a sip of his wine, and spoke deeply. "There was no storm, but Shiki died. This matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

As he spoke, Whitebeard picked up the newspaper again and examined the photo of Kaos.

The scene on the deck of a cruise ship.

And Zero and Stussy standing respectfully behind Kaos.

Just from one picture,

Whitebeard could sense Kaos' imposing presence.

And the strength of Zero and Stussy was not weak either.

That was the instinct of the strong!

"The World Government..."

Whitebeard murmured.

Just from one photo, he understood the real cause of Shiki's death.

Getting a glimpse of the World Government's hidden forces.

But today's Whitebeard was still at his peak.

Why fear them?

With a cold snort, he activated the power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

The newspaper in his hand shattered into dust.

Perhaps due to the death of his old friend, Whitebeard felt upset and ordered, "Little ones, pass on my command. If you see any Marine fleet near our territory, fire immediately and make sure they stay in the New World forever!"

"Yes, father."

Although they didn't understand their father's reasoning,

As sons, they nodded and obeyed without hesitation.

Meanwhile,

In a certain sea area.

The Red-Haired Pirates were preparing for their journey to the first half of the Grand Line.

Shanks had yet to attain top-tier strength.

And he lacked a complete crew.

He wanted to follow in the footsteps of his former captain, Roger, traveling the world, gathering true comrades, and eventually reaching the New World.

He had a hunch.

Chaos was about to erupt in the New World.

And in this chaos, only the strongest would rise to the top.

At that time, he had to claim a seat!

Like Whitebeard,

Looking at the photo of Kaos in the newspaper, Shanks focused on Kaos for the second time, growing more convinced that the true cause of the Golden Lion's death was linked to him.

But in the end, he put down the newspaper and moved on.

—

Whole Cake Island.

Linlin was growling while eating cake. "Damn it, that guy Shiki, who was at my level, actually died at the hands of Akainu and a bunch of Vice Admirals? There must be more to this. Call Morgans and tell him to give me the real story!"

"My intuition tells me this is connected to the World Government."

"And their recent actions—damn bastards! Contact them and tell them I want to know what they're up to!"

—

Shiki's death shocked ordinary pirates.

The top powerhouses, however, sensed something ominous.

And because of this foreboding, they took action.
