53 The world shakes

News birds soar above Sabaody Archipelago.

Newspapers, resembling a flurry of snow, were scattered, informing the island's residents of what happened recently.

but

Today's newspapers appeared somewhat different.

The huge paper contained only one piece of content.

The front page showcased a massive black and white image, filling the entire page.

And the person in the image is…Whitebeard! ! !

The following content is also all about Whitebeard's report.

"What happened?"

The people of Sabaody Archipelago looked suspicious and eagerly flipped the pages.

Upon a single glance, these residents stood still, rendered speechless.

The opening content of the newspaper was...

The Summit War of Marineford is over!

In an incredible display of power, Whitebeard, one of the Four Emperors, ssingle-handedly defeated a massive force of Hundred Thousand Marines, rescuing Ace and emerging victorious in the battle!

"Fake…. This must be Fake…"

The people at Sabaody Archipelago have this idea in their minds.

Then, with trembling hands, they continued to look the Newspaper

Although the paper didn't provide detailed information about Marineford, it clearly stated that Whitebeard is alive and his Pirate fleets suffered minimal losses.

Marine Headquarters at Marineford has been destroyed!

Whitebeard sank the entire island!

After reading this news...

Everyone's eyes widened in shock as a wave of intense horror gripped their hearts. They shouted in disbelief.

"Marine lost?"

"How is it possible? How is this possible?"

"Didn't Fleet Admiral Sengoku summon a hundred thousand elite marines? How did they still lose to Whitebeard?"

"That man was even more terrifying than the Pirate King, he managed to defeat the Marines. Is the world on the brink of destruction?"

The ordinary people screamed in fear and panic.

Whitebeard is not actually an evil pirate; he provides shelter to many places.

But he is portrayed negatively by the World Government and the Marine.

Whitebeard has become more feared than the most notorious criminal.

Now that Whitebeard has become the winner in the war, these ignorant and timid people suddenly feel like the world is collapsing.

Fear, despair, and panic filled the air.

A whirlwind of emotions engulfed their hearts, immediately causing chaos.

In the screams, countless people rushed to tell each other in the markets and people in the small towns were all gone in an instant because of fear Whitebeard would come and everyone escaped hurriedly.

and

As the news spread.

In just a few days, the news spread all over the world.

this day...…

The world is shaking!

Countless people held newspapers, gazing at the front page featuring Whitebeard's image, their eyes filled with fear and horror.

Before the Summit War of Marineford began.

Everyone had absolute confidence in the Marines.

They believed that the Marines would defeat Whitebeard, bringing peace and stability to the world.

But now.

News of the Marines' defeat spread.

Suddenly, it felt like a bucket of ice-cold water, extinguishing the hope in their hearts.

Panic swept through like a raging storm, and countless people screamed in despair, as if the world was nearing its end.

Certainly...

Some people shouted with excitement, prepared to embark on their journey.

"Marines were defeated. Despite mobilizing 100,000 troops, Whitebeard still became the winner."

"Too strong, Whitebeard is incredibly strong."

"I want to set sail on the sea. The sea is a man's true home. Once I reach the New World, I must witness that man with my own eyes and witness his power!"

Countless people shouted with uncontrollable excitement.

On this day.

Just for a few hours.

Thousands of people went to the sea.

There is just one purpose!

And that is to go to the New World and see Whitebeard in person.

To see the character that capable of defeating such a powerful Marine Headquarter!

if it's possible.....

They also hope to join the Whitebeard Pirate Fleet and become a part of Whitebeard's crew, and sail in the New World!

...….

East Blue.

A pirate ship sailed in the calm sea.

But the peace was shattered by a boisterous laughter.

"Whitebeard won! He truly did it. He defeated 100,000 Marines and became the winner!"

A man danced with pure excitement.

This man is named Ferguso, the captain of the Ferguso Pirates. He is twenty years old this year.

Despite his young age, Ferguso is a rising newcomer who has gained popularity in recent years, boasting a bounty of 15 million Berry.

This bounty may not be a big deal elsewhere.

However, in the weakest sea known as East Blue, he is considered a dominant force.

However, due to various reasons, Ferguso has not yet gone into the Grand Line.

Until this very day...

He came across the news about Whitebeard.

"I've made up my mind. I'm going to the New World and joining the Whitebeard Pirates!"

Ferguso shouted excitedly.

Defeating a Hundred Thousand Marines all by himself.

This kind of strength, this kind of feat!

Isn't it the strongest man in the world mean?

"But the Whitebeard Pirates are incredibly strong. Even if we reach the Grand Line, there's no guarantee that Whitebeard will accept us."

A crew member cautiously voiced his thoughts.

They don't even think about dominating East Blue.

Once they reach the Grand Line, they can only be seen as small shrimps.

"If father disagrees, I will follow him tirelessly until he is moved and allows me to join the Whitebeard Pirates!"

Ferguso chuckled nonchalantly, stepped onto the railing, and gazed out at the boundless sea: "One day, I'll join the Whitebeard Pirates and sail alongside father in the seas of the New World!"

Infinite possibilities flickered in his eyes.

The name of Whitebeard has become father to him!

Only.....

What Ferguso was unaware of was...

He wasn't the only one with this idea.

From West Blue, South Blue, North Blue, and the first half of the Grand Line...

Even in the New World itself!

Upon hearing the news of Whitebeard's victory, people with dreams began making their way to Whitebeard's territory, one by one.

They have only one purpose

That is to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

To sail alongside the strongest man in the world...
