Chapter 390: The closest man to God!

Calm Belt.

Yeruashi's ship gradually disappeared over the horizon.

The warriors on the deck of the Kuja Pirate ship, with the exception of Hancock, Marigold and Sandersonia, all stood motionless with their mouths open.

Even Amazon Empress Lily froze in shock.

There was shock and disbelief in her eyes.

One blow...

The giant sea king was destroyed with a single blow!

How could this man, who seemed so delicate and weak, possess such terrifying strength?!

What incredible power!

This man is much stronger than her!

He is most likely one of those monsters found at the top of the sea, but no matter how hard the Empress will try, she would not be able to recall any information about Yeruashi.

Although Amazon Lily is completely cut off from the outside world, and news seagulls are extremely rare in Calm Belt, to the point that the inhabitants of Amazon Lily do not know of the existence of men, but she, as the Empress of Amazon Lily, certainly has some understanding of the situation in the sea.

At least she knows someone like the Admirals, the Hero of the Navy, Whitebeard and the Pirate King.

But about Yeruashi, she had no impression at all!

So young...

Perhaps he appeared in the expanse of the sea not so long ago?

The thoughts of the Amazon Lily Empress were in chaos.

Hancock, who was standing next to her, was looking admiringly at Yeruashi's retreating ship.

At this moment, the twelve-year-old girl was completely smitten.

In Amazon Lily, strength is traditionally revered.

Yeruashi was the person who saved her from the darkness, and she also has incredible power that can be called divine without exaggeration.

The combination of these factors elevated Yeruashi's authority in Hancock's eyes far above that of the Amazon Lily empress.

"That's... Mr. Yeruashi's strength..."

Marigold whispered in admiration.

At that moment, a small black shadow appeared in the sky.

Unexpectedly, it was a new seagull, extremely rare in the Calm Belt.

It quickly flew across the sky and landed on the railing at the edge of the deck of the Kuja Pirate ship.

After seeing the news seagull, Amazon Empress Lily struggled to regain her composure and reached for the new newspaper, then gave it a cursory glance.

The entire front page of the newspaper was filled with a photograph.

It was a picture of Yeruashi!

The Amazon Lily empress froze again for a moment, then slowly turned the page of the newspaper with a trembling hand.

On the second page, a few words immediately caught my eye, written in very large print: The man closest to God!

[This person, with a bounty of 3 trillion 248 million 200 thousand belli, completely destroyed the Holy Land of Marijoa a few days ago]

[This has never happened in 800 years]

[From the headquarters of the Navy to the Holy Land of Marijoa, no one could stand in this man's way]

[In my opinion, it is no longer sufficient to use something like 'The strongest man in the world' to describe his strength]

[He can safely be called The closest man to God in this era]

[This person's strength is comparable to that of a God!]

Whoosh!

Silently.

The newspaper fell from Amazon Empress Lily's hands.

Gloriosa slowly raised her head, staring in disbelief at Yeruashi's ship in the distance, which was already a small black dot on the horizon.

At this moment, the Empress' thoughts were once again thrown into chaos.

...

After leaving the pirate ship Kuja, the news seagull went directly to Yeruashi's ship and soon landed on board.

It did not fly to the cabins, but simply tapped on one of the ship's windows with its beak.

Yeruashi, who was sitting on the living room couch, turned his head to look at the news seagull in the window and snapped his finger.

Pooh!

The window opened by itself, and a coin immediately fell into the news seagull's pouch.

In response, a newspaper flew out of the bag and landed on the table in front of Yeruashi.

The news seagull nodded politely to Yeruashi and flew out the window, flapping its wings.

"Is something wrong?"

Robin, who was thinking in the kitchen about the best way to cook sea king meat, poked her head out the door when she heard a noise.

Yeruashi grabbed a newspaper from the table, "The news seagull brought a new newspaper, I didn't think they could even be found in the Calm Belt.

Boats are extremely rare in the Calm Belt, so news gulls almost never fly here.

That's why for islands like Amazon Lily, newspapers are incredibly valuable and rare.

Otherwise, the Kuja Pirates would have recognized it.

"Ah, looks like this time the news has something to do with me..."

Yeruashi chuckled when he saw his picture on the front page.

The news seagull probably also delivered the newspaper to the nearby Kuja pirate ship.

Yeruashi turned the page and began to read the article fluently.

After a while, he shook his head, put down the newspaper and went back to reading the book.

Robyn, wearing a small apron, walked into the living room and picked up the newspaper.

After reading the article about Yeruashi, she said, "Traveling God..."

"Don't mention that nickname again..."

Yeruashi looked up from his book and looked at Robin.

This paper decided to simply add the word 'God' to his previous nickname.

Thinking about this, Yeruashi suddenly had a strong desire to find and punch the editor of this newspaper, because it sounded too strange....

Too much like the God Usopp!!!!!

Robin looked at the paper again, "Closer to God... that title fits you very well, sir... it's hard to even guess by how much your reward will increase after this."

To date, the highest bounty on a head in history belongs to the late Pirate King, Golden Roger.

His bounty was 5,564,800,000 belli!

In second place is Whitebeard, Edward Newgate, known as the strongest man in the world.

His bounty is 5 billion 46 million belli!

"My reward... will remain the same."

Yeruashi said calmly, going back to reading the book.

Robin was surprised.

How could the reward remain the same after destroying the Holy Land of Marijoa and killing most of the Heavenly Dragons?!

Unless...

The World Government will be forced to back down!

...

A few days later.

The last newspaper received by the Kuja Pirates and Yeruashi was distributed all over the world.

Although it was not the official newspaper of the World Government, but its shocking content caused a storm all over the world.

The World Government has remained absolutely silent all this time.

They did not publish any information at all regarding this news.

They did not deny anything, but they did not admit anything either.

Yeruashi's reward never increased, moreover, the World Government newspapers did not publish any information about him at all.

Although this situation greatly puzzled and caused misunderstanding among civilians, but the impact on the inhabitants of the Shadow World and the powerful pirates of the New World was completely different.... their shock only increased!

Because it can only mean one thing....

The World Government was forced to retreat before the Traveler!

The current Yeruashi could no longer be classified with titles like 'The World's Strongest Man', 'The World's Greatest Swordsman' or 'The Strongest Being'.

Yeruashi received a new title.

From that day on, in the vastness of the sea, he was called.... The closest man to God!
