World Recruitment.

All forces that had emerged from the previous era understood what Dak was initiating at this moment, as the Navy had conducted global recruitment drives roughly every ten years.

In the past era, this initiative had given rise to the current three Navy Admirals and many seasoned Vice Admirals.

Following the era of Gol D. Roger, it brought forth a younger generation of Navy officers, including Smoker and Hina.

A decade later, the "Worst Generation" brought figures like Issho.

Now, the Mystery Hatchery House, or rather the Pokémon League, was undertaking a similar initiative.

"Wow, wow, wow, is this a declaration of war against the World Government?" Morgans enthusiastically captured everything on his camera, anticipating the surge of high-profile news that would follow. He was certain that focusing on Pokémon-related content would boost his newspaper sales.

Likewise, he eagerly awaited the response from the World Government's side. Although it wasn't publicly acknowledged, everyone knew that the World Government would not allow a non-aligned force to conduct large-scale recruitment.

Accumulating armed forces for self-defense was permissible, but exceeding that limit would provoke a bounty as a warning.

Without a doubt, Dak was likely to be targeted with a bounty after this event, and it wouldn't be a small amount.

Doflamingo chuckled, unable to suppress his amusement at Morgans' comment. If not for the crowd, he would've indulged in a full-blown Uchiha Obito laugh, reveling in the spectacle of chaos.

"Let's see how the Navy chooses to respond," Doflamingo muttered, glancing towards the Navy's section.

Contrary to his expectations, he saw no signs of panic or alarm on Sengoku and others' faces, which made him reconsider his impression.

"Anticipated it?" Doflamingo furrowed his brows. Having been pursued by Tsuru for many years, he knew the Navy's grand strategist well enough to realize that they must have already formulated a contingency plan.

Not just Doflamingo, but the Whitebeard Pirates across from the Navy were also enjoying the spectacle, enthusiastically applauding Dak's declarations. They weren't bogged down by the complex politics, simply enjoying the drama.

On the side of the Revolutionary Army, the figures sat apart, not engaging much in conversation. Kuma and Karasu were naturally quiet, one out of gentleness, the other due to his soft voice and lack of his metallic beak today.

However, the other three had different reactions.

"Ivankov, with a face full of shock, couldn't believe Dak's audacious move. "Shouldn't he have lain low for a few years before making such a bold move?"

Betty, who understood human nature well, noted, "He must be confident in his power. If we had power like that Pokémon, we wouldn't need to hide either."

"Maybe this is an opportunity for the Navy to finally break free from the World Government's control," Dragon added, bringing a different perspective. As a former Navy member and having observed its operations, he was keenly aware of what held back the Navy's justice.

The audience buzzed with anticipation as two pairs of trainers and Pokémon floated into the arena, commanded by Dak's request to impress the audience. Monet in a pure white princess dress with her partner Gardevoir, and Sugar in a dark purple gothic dress with her partner Mismagius, floated forward, showcasing the ethereal bond between trainers and their Pokémon.

"That's Gardevoir! The Pokémon of my dreams!"

"So beautiful~"

"Froakie, one day we'll be just as charismatic a duo!"

The audience murmured, their eyes fixed on the two trainers and their Pokémon.

"In a couple of years, our Pokémon League plans to host a global Pokémon battle tournament, with prizes surpassing those of One Piece," Dak announced, floating mid-air, microphone in hand. "The ultimate winner, both trainer and Pokémon, will be awarded a unique title of 'Champion,' enjoying privileges beyond anyone's imagination."

"Without further ado, let's have these two pairs show us what Pokémon battling is all about!"

As Dak introduced the trainers, excitement built up in the arena.

"To my left, we have Trainer Monet and her partner Gardevoir!"

"And to my right, Trainer Sugar with her partner Mismagius!"
