'Breaking News! Breaking News! The Rocks Pirates have been Annihilated.'

The people of the world of One Piece woke up to shocking news, the Navy dismantled the infamous Rocks Pirates crew led by the Hero of this event Vice Admiral Garp. Rocks D.

Xebec is reported to be dead, while his crew members are scattered in the sea and are currently being hunted down by the Navy, but the strange thing is the way this news was delivered.

Eagles! Huge eagles would swoop down and drop the newspapers that reported the news, there was even a before and after picture of God's Valley on the front page of the newspapers. But to the world government's relief, there wasn't really an explanation surrounding the event.

The newspaper was made and written in such a way that it would make its readers speculate on what truly happened. But while the World Government had already moved past the Rocks Pirates matter to focus more on NF's intentions.

The people were shocked by the power of the Navy and Garp who was said to be the leader of this mission. Based on the majority of the people's speculation from the images and headlines, Garp took on the leader, Rocks D. Xebec alone.

In the current era, Xebec is considered to be a monster and the strongest man alive, then what about Garp, who can defeat Xebec? The Rocks Pirates crew immediately became the talk of the sea for the regular civilians.

However, the Navy and World Government were more shocked by Nature's Triangle's information network. They already knew about 'The Seer' network, so they wouldn't be shocked if NF simply had information on the God Valley incident.

But to be capable of taking pictures of figures like Garp and Xebec without anyone noticing was kind of eye-opening.

There was a picture of Garp and Xebec clashing, Fist to Fist, there were even pictures of the Navy fighting against other members of the Rock's pirates. The only people that were excluded were the World Government Agents, and the Roger Pirate crew, along with the Slaves and Celestial Dragons.

But this only made the World Government more restless, they knew that they had done one over on Nature's Family with the Navy Academy issue. Although they felt that it was unlikely that Nature's Family would retaliate, they were still guarded against NF's possible actions.

And now that Nature's Family clearly had the opportunity to do so, but yet they didn't, it only made them feel more nervous. They had been dealing with these abnormal freaks for more than half a century.

No one wants to get rid of Nature's Family, an uncontrollable anomaly more than them, but it's easier said than done. Neither the Navy nor the World Government understands how Naure's Family managed to take the pictures without anyone noticing.

And they refused to believe that there weren't pictures of the Roger Pirates, the World Government Agents, Celestial Dragons, the Slaves, and maybe even… Uranus.

The Four Seas, the Grand Line, the New World, everywhere receive the news from 'Nature's News', some were clueless as to who was behind Nature's News, especially the people of the Four Seas.

Some forces were curious about the Eagles that so loyally delivered the newspapers, but the birds would fly way too high for them to get a hold of them. And after reading the newspaper they knew that this was the only time they could get news without being charged by Nature's News.

But unlike the regular people, the World Government managed to get a hold of the Eagles, and what they discovered surprised them.

The Eagles were… robots. They discovered that Nature's Triangle used some type of technology to make real-life robotic replicas of Eagles, and upon closer inspection, they realized that the outer shell of the Eagles was made of wood.

It's too bad they couldn't discover anything else, because the moment they held on to the Eagles, a voice relaying the detonation countdown was heard, and in a matter of seconds, it exploded, destroying with it, anything that could help them learn how Nature's Family did it.

But surprisingly, the World Government wasn't worried as much about this technology as Nature's Family expected.

Instead, they were worried about Nature's Family revealing the events of God Valley, which they believe that Nature's Family is fully aware of, and this free Newspaper distribution was just a threat from Nature's Family to them, for the stunt they had pulled on Hercule.

…

The Holy Land Mary Geoise.

"I don't care what anyone says, It must have been that weirdo Ephon who personally did it, how else could they escape the detection of Figarland."

The five elders were currently sitting around a polished mahogany table, their expressions etched with a mixture of frustration and apprehension.

They were supposed to be enjoying the defeat of the Rocks Pirates, but Nature's Triangle just had to mess things up.

"It could have been Apollo, we don't know how he has developed his ability after half a century."

"Although there's such a possibility, I don't think so, I believe it was Nolan."

The weight of their authority hung heavy in the air as they engaged in heated debate, their voices rising in urgent whispers.

Despite their formidable power, the elders find themselves at an impasse, their options limited by the shadowy machinations of Nature's Family.

"*Bam!* These guys are really daring, troublesome freaks!"

With furrowed brows and clenched fists, they gesture emphatically, their gestures punctuated by the occasional slam of a fist against the table.

"Let's take a step back, I don't think Ephon is the type of person to make rash decisions, we all can agree that he also believes in stability, and revealing the pictures they took and information on God Valley would only cause chaos."

Saint Marcus Mars evaluated after calming down, with the series of events, they didn't really get the time to calmly process everything.

"Yeah you are right, but you're leaving out the fact that this guy doesn't function like a normal person at all." Saint Topman Warcury said as he observed the expression of the other four before continuing.

"Even if they couldn't have defeated us, we wouldn't have been able to do anything to them at the time with Apollo's space fruit. And it was actually a losing situation for us since we had more to lose than they did if we went to war. But yet he chose to retire to the Calm Belts, who knows what someone like that would do."

This made the other elders speechless because they remembered Ephon's words to them that he had delivered through Kong. 'I don't mind cutting the strings of puppets.'

They all knew what Ephon meant by that, but that only made them more shocked and in disbelief.

Because Ephon's words alluded to the fact that there was someone behind them controlling things in the dark. But even most of the highest of highest in the world is oblivious to the fact that there is someone sitting on the Void throne.

At the time when they heard Ephon's message, they wanted to start a war with Nature's Family at that moment, but then they thought about Ephon's character.

He was one of the most careful and calculative opponent they had ever faced. And they refused to believe that he would reveal such a thing without knowing what the possible repercussions could be.

So eventually they chose to wait and investigate what secrete Nature's Family was possibly working on or hiding.

But they found nothing, and after much deliberation, especially after considering the fact that Ephon didn't want to start a war with them, they decided to just brush it off as a threat and show of power.

A threat, because if the political world knew that there was someone sitting on the throne of the World controlling everything, a civil war might occur.

And a show of power, because… 'how the hell did this freak even know this'. That was their thought. They even started to suspect that the mystery behind Ephon might be related to the Void Century.

Ephon's life span made them believe that even more, but after searching, they found no records of Ephon in their records.

So they could only brush off Ephon's knowledge as another attribute of his abnormality, they felt that the word freak was really unfit for someone like him.

"Let's put this aside for now, Nature's Family wouldn't start unnecessary chaos, so we should focus more on dealing with the remnants of the Rocks pirates."

"Hm!" "Agreed!" "I think so too" "Let's do that then."
