Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

Chapter 254 World Turmoil

Marco and the others did not actively cover up Whitebeard's death; they even held a grand funeral for him.

Their father was a legendary strongman who dominated the seas during his lifetime, so his funeral must be of the highest standard.

This was the last thing they, as sons, did for Whitebeard.

Since there was no concealment, the news of Whitebeard's death would naturally be known to many interested people.

Morgans certainly knew this.

At that moment, Morgans, who had just learned of Whitebeard's death at the World Economic News Agency in the sky, widened his eyes as if he could not believe the news.

But what followed was extreme excitement, so much so that his body trembled slightly.

"Is Whitebeard dead?"

"Whitebeard is dead?!"

A sharp glint flashed in Morgans' eyes.

Based on his years of experience with news, he was certain that this was another huge news story that would shake the world.

Who is Whitebeard?

He was a legendary pirate who lived through one or even several eras, and was known as the strongest man in the world for decades.

The pirate king who has reigned over the seas for decades!

It can be said that white beards played a significant role in the legends of the old days.

Although his influence on the world was not as great as Roger's as the Pirate King, his lasting impact on the sea was no less than Roger's, and could even be said to be greater.

His strength was no less than Roger's, but the problem was that he lived longer than Roger!

That's a full twenty years longer!!

There are so many stories about Whitebeard that it would take three days and three nights to tell them all.

The fall of such a powerful figure will not only shake the world, but will also greatly affect the power structure of various forces around the world.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates have become slightly less flamboyant since the Impel Down battle.

News of Whitebeard's poor health did not fail to spread at sea.

But even if you know, what then?

A person's name is like a tree's shadow!

Whitebeard's formidable reputation at sea over the years is no joke.

Even if we know his health might be compromised, so what? Aside from some hotheads, who would dare to cause trouble for the Whitebeard Pirates?

The problem is that these hotheads are not like Luffy and his crew in the original story; they are not actually qualified to fight against a Yonko-level pirate crew.

In the past two years, those hot-headed pirates who went to find the Whitebeard Pirates were defeated by his captains before they even saw Whitebeard's face.

Not everyone gets to see the Three Sovereigns!

The captains of the Whitebeard Pirates are no pushovers either.

Moreover, as long as Whitebeard lives, even if his condition is extremely poor, the Whitebeard Pirates will still be a Yonko-level pirate crew.

What was that saying again?

As long as I live, you will all remain my subjects!

But now that Whitebeard is dead, things are completely different.

Without Whitebeard, the legendary pirate of yesteryear, the Whitebeard Pirates would never have the strength to maintain their former glory as a Yonko-level pirate crew.

The illusionary bubble was eventually burst!

So, what will happen to the other forces in this vast ocean when there is one less emperor?

Lost in thought, Morgans suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha..."

"How exciting! The reigning emperors of the old era have fallen once again. Who will be qualified to become the new Emperor-level pirate crew?"

"Or perhaps it's simply a matter of maintaining the world order of two emperors in the end?"

"This is so exciting! I can't wait to see the results!!"

After saying that, Morgans waved his hand and shouted to the crowd behind him.

"Everyone, get to work! Make sure you have enough newspapers to distribute all over the world before sunrise tomorrow. I want to plunge this world into...great turmoil!!!"

……

-

Morgans World Economic News acted very quickly; before sunrise the next day, countless carrier pigeons were already carrying newspapers to all parts of the world.

As these newspapers spread throughout the world, many people and forces also received this news that was enough to cause a huge shock to the world.

The world was immediately in an uproar!

"What?!"

A pirate with a slightly tipsy face and somewhat hazy eyes suddenly jumped up, his pupils widening sharply.

Almost instantly, the hazy look in his eyes vanished, replaced by horror, and the slight intoxication on his face was now replaced by a flush from the intense emotional turmoil.

His gaze was fixed on the pirate in front of him, and he asked in a slightly trembling voice:

"What did you just say?? Whitebeard is dead??"

"Yes...yes!"

The pirate who was asked the question stammered slightly. Before he could continue speaking, the pirate who had asked the question earlier snatched the newspaper from his hand.

He gripped the newspaper tightly with both hands, his eyes fixed on it, but when he saw the large headline, he was stunned again.

Although I had already heard the news, seeing it with my own eyes was still incredibly shocking.

He is a veteran pirate who has been a pirate for over twenty years.

It can be said that this area of ​​the sea is quite famous.

Although it's nothing in the grand scheme of things.

He was just a twenty-year-old youth when he became a pirate, and at that time, the legend of Whitebeard was already circulating on the sea.

From his early days as a pirate to his current status as a seasoned veteran, Whitebeard has always been considered the pinnacle of pirates.

Even though the Whitebeard Pirates suffered a great loss in the battle of Impel Down two years ago, it did not affect Whitebeard's status in his heart.

The reason is simple: Whitebeard's reputation has been known for far too long on this sea.

The perceptions formed over decades are not so easily changed.

But now, this perception has to change.

Nonsense, people are dead, how could they not change?

In that instant, the same thought also appeared in the pirate's mind.

"The world... is about to be thrown into turmoil!!"

Similar scenes are not uncommon around the world at the same time. Countless pirates were horrified by Whitebeard's death and also sensed that the world was about to experience great turmoil.

But these pirates were just watching the show, completely shocked.

In short, even if the world is in turmoil, they are just some of the people who drift along with the tides of time.

Those who could spark or even change the tides of an era also received this news at this moment...
