News Spreads

Several important figures received updates of the news that had spread throughout the world with the article stating that Alyssia Lucine had defeated Monkey D. Garp in a one on one battle using only their immense power and skills.

It went into detail about how Alyssia had some time during the battle where she was pushed back and taking hits but she started to improve until she started to turn the battle more in her favour.

The battle ended dramatically with the two giving it their all in a final confrontation where Alyssia emerged victorious.

There were some speculations written about theories of Garp losing his edge with his old age while others wrote other possible reasons for his loss.

Some had praised Alyssia for being able to defeat the hero of the Marines in a fair battle since it was a feat that many could not pull off.

Meanwhile on Wholecake Island, there was the large figure of Charlotte Linlin known as Big Mom who had finished listening to the report that had been given.

The subordinate trembled as they saw the look in her eyes and lowered their head making their body look smaller hoping to not be a victim to her unpredictable behaviour.

There was a chilling glint in her eyes which was quickly replaced with a scheming look as her lips curled up into a smirk. "Mamamama! Garp has finally been dethroned and by someone so young at that! This new generation is so annoying to deal with."

She was sick and tired of having to deal with each and every rookie that came along after the Great Pirate Era had begun.

It became even worse as more challengers appeared with the New Era as the Worst Generation made their way into the New World.

She had already lost several ships to Captain Kid which was letting her accumulate losses in the power she had been building up over a long time.

There were several others that had come into one of her territories and stirred up trouble in some way.

Out of the Worst Generation, she had been able to put one of them under her control through marriage as Gang Bege married one of her daughters.

Rather than throwing a tantrum to hearing that a new powerhouse had appeared in the world, she waved off the shaking subordinate with a pleased look on her face. "Mamamama. Send someone to look further into her details and find a suitable candidate among my unmarried children."

Her intentions were obvious, she intended to find someone of a suitable age range among her children to marry them off to Alyssia.

It would end up putting Alyssia on the opposite side of the Marines even more than before and most of what Alyssia had would become hers.

Whether Alyssia was truly accepted into the family or not did not matter in the present since she could assess her once she saw her in person.

If she could pull off some scheme to take what belonged to Alyssia if Alyssia was someone she could eliminate then she would not hesitate to do so.

If Alyssia was too difficult to deal with and it would result in too many losses on her side then she planned to settle the matter with how she did with Gang Bege.

Alyssia could marry into the family and would give birth to a child from one of her sons allowing a strong bloodline and potential to possibly be passed down within her family.

If it meant using her underworld connections to make threats to get Alyssia to give in then she would not hesitate to do so.

Big Mom had done it to others before so she could easily do it again.

It was easy for her to make use of her influence to have anyone she wanted investigated and to have those around them assassinated.

She did nit know much about Alyssia and those around her that well but she knew that there would always be weaknesses to exploit.

Once a weakness was taken hold of, she could use it to get her way.

The Marines were not the only ones who were trying to put the White Storm under them in some way.

Compared to the influence that each large force had built up over the many long years they had existed, the White Storm was still quite new and was still in its early stages.

Even if Alyssia was the person who had attracted the attention of the world in a big way like she had, it was still the White Storm that would have to become stable enough to weather the future difficulties.

Even the strongest of people in the world could not be everywhere at once so they needed to rely on those that could assist them whether it was having trusted allies or making deals with others.

Big Mom had planned to swallow what Alyssia had whole in order to make up for her losses or to have a powerhouse like Alyssia working under her while producing strong and talented children into the family.

The Marines had made another plan with different intentions of putting Alyssia under their control to prevent her from falling into the hands of Big Mom or others.

The other three of the Four Emperors did not have the same response for various different reasons.

Kaido was too busy dealing with restructuring the Tobi Roppo as new members had joined his crew after subjugating Drake from the Worst Generation.

He had big plans to prepare for which involved Wano so he was busy collecting as many SMILES and weapons as possible in preparation for a large war.

Blackbeard had looked at the newspaper using his remaining eye as he clutched it tightly crumpling it up before throwing it away.

His defeat and humiliation was still fresh to him and the losses suffered were great.

He still greatly feared Alyssia from the power and intimidation she displayed.

It was like a wild and ferocious predator was bearing down upon him which he was crushed by.

The fear of that moment remained fresh in his mind and he would not forget it anytime soon.

The pain coming from where he lost an eye to her would become a permanent reminder that he could not go against her again unless he was absolutely sure he would succeed.

Shanks read the newspaper and was filled with anticipation as he welcomed yet another person who could make a great impact on the world.

He did not know much about Alyssia and the effect she would have on the New World so he grew more curious about her hoping there would be a day they would cross paths.
