Absalom actually has some talent as a journalist.

In the original timeline, he used the pseudonym Absalom and submitted many articles to the World Economic News Agency in exchange for royalties to take care of the decadent Moria.

With the ability of the transparent fruit, he can sneak into many places that ordinary people cannot reach, so he has a lot of first-hand information.

Although he is not doing this job now, he has some potential in this area.

Absalom doesn't know if there are other reporters on the island, but he took a lot of photos when Leliana and Whitebeard were fighting.

There is nothing wrong with authenticity, timeliness and accuracy as the three elements of news, but these three elements are sometimes not enough to attract people's attention.

Quoting out of context, making something out of nothing, exaggerating, and stealing concepts are good ways to attract attention.

With these photos in hand, there is a lot of public opinion space for what happened on Portozibalalta Island.

Whether it is the cultural propaganda on the Brook Island Whale Tour or the Power Gear's cruise work in the surrounding area, they are all fighting a public opinion war.

The benefits are not real land and money. Some things that seem to have no actual benefits are the things that can continue to generate income in the future.

A seemingly losing business can also make a small profit. The reputation gained by spending money in the early stage can naturally bring enough benefits when needed.

Absalom has always been with Orlan, so he naturally knows how to do this. Only by making good use of these photos can the value of this one be further increased.

"I didn't notice it before, Abu, you are a good photographer."

Taking the camera from Absalom, Leliana was very satisfied with the photos in it. Absalom found a good angle and grasped the proportion of people and scenery just right.

He didn't turn people into stick figures, nor did he take any abstract pictures. With this skill, he can take a position in the navy's intelligence agency.

"It's just a little hobby, it's nothing, what do you think, Princess?"

"Give me the photo, I'll go talk to Morgans later."

"Aren't you going back? Your injury"

"It's a minor injury, the old man is too worried, the fight didn't last long, this injury is nothing. But if we continue to fight, he won't be able to take advantage."

The animal system is the most direct way to strengthen the body. Although the destructive power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is strong, the advantages of the animal system will only be reflected after a protracted war.

Whether it is the enhancement of physical fitness or the enhancement of recovery ability, the animal system is top-notch, not to mention the most peculiar fantasy beast species.

"I understand why Dad doesn't like fighting on the mainland. If a fight really breaks out on Firefly Island, I won't be able to let go. By the way, who are you trading with this time?"

"It's the Revolutionary Army, but it looks like they can't come over. Don't worry about it. I can handle it."

When selling gas tanks before, Bear and Ginny mentioned to Ivankov that they should go through the underground channels themselves. The trading channels here are too chaotic. Although the source of this batch of weapons is Orlan, no one can tell how many hands they have passed through.

There is no other impact if you sell it through normal channels. At this time, watching Whitebeard leave, the people of the Oliver family came up again.

"Please wait a moment."

"What? It's good that I don't bother you. What else do you want to say?"

"No, that's not what we mean. We want to say. Do you need a place to stay in the New World? Portozibalalta Island has convenient transportation and is a good place."

Half of the island was destroyed. Even if there are excellent ports around Portozibalalta Island, the loss is huge.

But they didn't come here to pursue responsibility, but to curry favor with someone.

In Whitebeard's mind, he chose to retreat because he was worried about other members. After all, being surrounded in this situation was not a good thing.

Even if he could easily destroy the fleet that surrounded here with the tsunami caused by the earthquake, the high-end combat power would cause irreversible consequences to the Whitebeard Pirates.

There was no reason to fight to the death, so retreating was understandable.

But it was another matter in the eyes of the Oliver family. In their eyes, it was Leliana who defeated the Whitebeard Pirates alone.

The collapse of the island was already a heavy loss. If Whitebeard came here to retaliate afterwards, they would really be finished.

Originally, they wanted to hug Whitebeard's thighs, and because of Whitebeard's power, they made an unfair decision. Now that they saw a person whose military power was not inferior to Whitebeard and who had more power to trade with them, they naturally had to take the initiative to come up.

As long as there is the protection of the strong, these things that were lost can still be recovered.

"I destroyed half of your island."

"That's nothing. The port just happened to be not wide enough. After you smashed it, the area of ​​the port became larger. We have to thank you for helping to expand the port. Please accept this labor fee."

The current situation in the New World, if you don't have enough ability and have a lot of wealth, you have to find a backer. Even if you are hit in the face, you have to take the initiative to ask others to fight back.

"Abu, what do you think?"

Leliana didn't know the situation in the New World. Apart from Orlan himself, Absalom knew the situation here best.

"Princess, we do lack an outpost in the New World, and the location here is not bad. But we are not pirates, and we don't collect protection fees to shelter islands.

If we can get a share of the business here, that's pretty much it. "

"No problem! We can talk about this slowly, everything is easy to discuss."

The requirement to hold shares is much more excessive than simply collecting protection fees, but for the Oliver family, this is much better than the other party not being interested in them, or wanting to destroy them directly.

Only by clinging to this kind of wings can you have a chance to survive.

"As expected, this sea still has to be taught physics with fists. Abu, you can handle the matter here. I'll leave first."

Before Leliana and Whitebeard fought, this was not the attitude of the Oliver family.

Leaving this trivial matter to Absalom, Leliana flew into the sky again, contacting others along the way.

"Sister Stussy, this is Leliana, do you have news about Morgans? I want to talk to him."

The location of Morgans is quite changeable. Not only does it have multiple branches and backup headquarters around the world, but the current headquarters is also a special building that can be transferred by flight at any time.

After all, the job he does is actually quite dangerous. Sometimes after reporting news, there are always people who want him to disappear, so Morgans has developed such a skill in running away.

But he is also a person in the underground world. Although he cannot be located at any time, he can still find a temporary place to stay.

Otherwise, the people sent by the World Government would not be able to reach Morgans smoothly. It can only be said that Morgans has a pretty good grasp of the red line, and he has always been in a position where the World Government hates him but does not kill him completely.

In addition, Morgans occasionally cooperated with the World Government's actions, and in the end he persisted.

As the current queen of Happy Street, the World Government has more or less information on her as the nail into the underground world.

"Morgans? Wait a moment. If he hasn't moved, he should be near Broccoli Island now."

Stussy, who was studying a beauty magazine, recalled it, and then gave Leliana an address. Before she could continue, the call was hung up.

"Broccoli Island? It's not far. Thank you very much. I'll hang up now."

Morgans' intelligence network is a bit exaggerated. To be precise, everyone on the sea knows that Morgans will spend a lot of money to buy photos of big news.

Even if there is no conclusive evidence, it is just a matter of speculation.

As for contacting Morgans by phone.

It can be done, but it doesn't mean much. Morgans' character is sometimes like a schizophrenic. He can report fake news in order to attract attention, but he can also ignore the requirements of the world government in order to report real news. Even Nika's photos can be posted. go out.

In other words, his purpose has always been very simple. He just wanted to report big news from beginning to end. To communicate with this guy, you have to use some special methods, and interviews are the best.

When Leliana planned to search for traces of Morgans, the navy of the G1 branch also completed its assembly.

Because of the existence of the Red Earth Continent, the Navy will not go to great lengths to find a way to hoist huge warships across the Red Earth Continent.

Marinefando and the G1 branch are the two portals that defend Marie Joa, located in Paradise and the New World respectively. When it is necessary to take action in the New World, the navy only needs to send the appropriate generals there, and then it can directly change ships and set off.

Anyway, they are all standard warships, so the difference is not very big.

"Garp, there's no need to go, the mission has been cancelled."

Garp, who had just crossed the red continent and arrived at the warship, turned around and received new orders from the Warring States Period.

"What do you mean? You were the one who asked me to come here, and now as soon as I board the ship, the mission is canceled? Could it be that the Warring States Period..."

"I can't help it. This is something I can't control. New information has come from Portozi Baralta Island. Whitebeard has already..."

"Do you want to take me away and eat senbei by yourself?!"

Click!

There was a busy tone from the microphone in Garp's hand. Sengoku accidentally crushed the microphone in his hand just now. Then Sengoku skillfully took out new parts from the drawer of the table and installed them on the phone bug, and then reinstalled it. Got through the phone.

Judging from his speed and proficiency in replacing parts, this is not the first time.

"Sengoku, what did you say happened to Whitebeard?"

Sengoku was about to reprimand Garp, but Garp's tone suddenly became serious again.

"Whitebeard seems to have been repelled. The specific news is not clear yet. In short, you are not needed there. You just"

Beep——

The busy tone of the phone bug indicated that Garp had hung up the phone bug again. Along with a crisp sound, another batch of parts fragments appeared on the table.

"Kuzan, it's me. Are you in Piltover? Ask Dr. Sidilir for me how the pacifists are progressing."

Warring States did not contact Garp again this time. As long as he was sure that there was nothing serious, Garp dared to refuse the call directly.

Rather than continuing to sulk, it is better to see if there is any news that makes you happy.

During this period of time, there are a lot of scattered parts and finished products. Maybe some kind of model machine has been assembled. Even if it can't be put into actual combat yet, it's okay to pull it over and use it first.

When what happened on Portozi Baralta Island began to unfold, Leliana came to the vicinity of Broccoli Island. The permanent pointer here was borrowed from the Navy G12 branch.

The lieutenant general of the branch here happens to be Bruglas. The lieutenant general who was originally responsible for the affairs of the G6 branch has been transferred to the new world. She is also familiar with Leliana, and borrowing pointers is just a matter of words.

Near this island, Leliana also saw many newsbirds.

Based on this point alone, there are so many news birds gathered here, which is enough to prove that Stussy's intelligence is correct. Following the traces of those news birds, Leliana quickly found the headquarters of the World Economic News Agency.

"It's so annoying. It's another day without big news. Hey, is there no new news? How can such news attract people's attention! Who made this layout? Can a pirate worth tens of millions of dollars be captured and occupy a separate page?

And this, a new song by a famous singer is the headline? You might as well report that the Soul King slipped at a 45-degree tilt!"

Morgans was criticizing his reporters, but at this time, there was a knocking sound outside the window.

"President, I think... someone may be looking for you."

The reporter who was being scolded pointed to the back of Morgans. Due to her size, Leliana couldn't get in here, so she could only use this method.

"Hiss!"

Morgans took a breath when he saw Leliana, and all the feathers on his body stood up.

"Princess Leleliana, why are you here? Are you here alone?"

Morgans didn't know about the incident on Portozibalalta Island, but as a regular attendee of the tea party, he had the honor of seeing how Leleliana treated Charlotte Lingling, who had an outbreak of bulimia.

It was not wise to provoke the two most difficult groups of people in the underground world at the same time, and that incident was not big news in Morgans's eyes, so Morgans did not report it.

Morgans didn't know what Leleliana was going to do, but he knew very well that he couldn't run away at this time.

While opening the window, Morgans was still looking around, and he was relieved when he was sure that he didn't see the figure of a little white cat. At least the other party was not here to settle accounts according to the notebook.

"It's a good thing. I'm here to give you big news. Take a look at these."

Leleliana handed over a stack of photos.

The cracked sky, the broken island, and Leleliana and Whitebeard wrestling.

"This is..."

"Whitebeard's men robbed our things, and then I gave them a lesson. Later, Whitebeard came over, but finally chose to retreat. How about it, enough for you to write a report?"

"That's enough. You are really my timely rain. I am worried that there will be no headlines tomorrow. How much do you want for the use of these photos?"

"I am not interested in money, but I want to review the content of the report and specify some other content."

It is unrealistic to tempt Leliana with money. For example, the money that the Oliver family can take out may not be as much as Leliana's New Year's money.

Morgans understood Leliana's meaning and did not refuse her. As long as he could report such big news, some errors were acceptable.

"Of course, you are the person involved, of course you can review it. But it is better to have a resounding nickname at this time. How about Dragon Princess?"

"Not interested, just write the name, I am not a pirate. By the way, remember to write the full name, it is Sidilier Leliana."

Today is gone
