Chapter 390

Kalm Belt.

Yeruashi's ship gradually disappeared over the horizon.

The female warriors on the deck of the Cooge Pirate ship, with the exception of Hancock, Marigold, and Sandersonia, were all standing motionless with their mouths wide open.

Even the Amazon Empress Lily froze in shock.

There was shock and disbelief in her eyes.

Hit...

The giant sea king was destroyed with a simple punch!

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

Incredible power!

This man is much stronger than her!

Most likely, he is one of those monsters standing at the very top of the sea, but no matter how hard the Empress tried, she could not remember any information about Yeruashi at all.

Although Amazon Lily is completely isolated from the outside world, and news gulls are extremely rare in the Kalm Belt, to the point that the inhabitants of Amazon Lily do not know about the existence of men, but she, as the Empress of Amazon Lily, certainly has a certain understanding of the situation at sea.

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

But about Yeruashi, she had no impression at all!

So young...

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

Empress Amazon Lily's thoughts were in chaos.

Hancock, who was standing next to her, gazed admiringly at the retreating Yeruashi ship.

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

On Amazon, Lily is traditionally revered for strength.

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

The combination of these factors raised Yeruashi's authority in Hancock's eyes, far above that of the Amazon Empress Lily.

"This is it...the power of Mr. Yeruashi...»

Marigold whispered admiringly.

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

Unexpectedly, it was a news gull, extremely rare in the Kalm Belt.

She quickly flew through the sky and landed on the railing, on the edge of the deck of the Kuja Pirate ship.

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

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

It was a photo of Yeruashi!

Empress Amazon Lily paused 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 type — Closest to God!

[This person, with a reward of 3 billion 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 Sea Watch to the Holy Land of Marijoa, no one could stand in the way of this man]

[In my opinion, it is no longer enough to use something like 'The Strongest Man in the World' to describe his strength]

[He can safely be called the Closest person to God in this era]

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

Phew!

In silence.

The newspaper fell out of the hands of the Amazon Empress Lily.

Gurotia slowly raised her head, looking in disbelief at the Yeruashi ship in the distance, already a small black dot on the horizon.

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

...

After leaving the Kuja Pirate ship, the news gull went straight to Yeruashi's ship and soon landed on board.

She did not fly to the cabins, but simply tapped one of the ship's windows with her beak.

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

Pooh!

The window opened of its own accord, and a coin immediately fell into the news gull's bag.

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

The news gull nodded politely to Yeruashi and flew out of 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 of the door when she heard a noise.

Yeruashi picked up a newspaper from the table: "The news seagull brought a fresh newspaper, I didn't think that they could be found even in the Kalm Belt.»

Ships are extremely rare in the Kalm Belt, so news gulls almost never fly here.

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

Otherwise, the Kuja Pirates would have recognized him.

"Ah, it seems that this time the news has something to do with me...»

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

The news gull most likely delivered the newspaper to the Kuja Pirate ship nearby as well.

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, came into the living room and picked up the newspaper.

After reading the article about Yeruashi, she said: "God is a Traveler...»

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

Yeruashi looked up from his book and looked at Robin.

This newspaper decided to simply add the word 'God'to his past nickname.

At the thought of this, Yeruashi suddenly had a strong desire to find and beat up the editor of this newspaper, because it sounded too strange...

Very similar to the God Usopp!!

Robin looked at the paper again: "Nearest to God...that title suits you very well, mister...it's hard to even guess to what extent 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 reward was 5 billion 564 million 800 thousand belli!

In second place is Belous Edward Newgate, known as the Strongest Man in the World.

His reward is 5 billion 46 million belli!

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

Yeruashi said calmly, returning to reading the book.

Robin was surprised.

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

If only...

The World Government will not be forced to back down!

...

In a few days.

The latest newspaper received by the Kuja and Yeruashi Pirates 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 didn't deny anything, but they didn't 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 the civilians, but the impact on the inhabitants of the shadow world and the mighty pirates of the New World was completely different...their shock only increased!

Because it could only mean one thing...

The World Government was forced to back down before the Traveler!

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

Yeruashi received a new title.

From that day on, in the vastness of the sea, it was called...Closest to God!
