Chereads / Me and God of Wibu / Chapter 30 - Media

Chapter 30 - Media

"Yamato. Yamato. Where are you?" 

"I'm here. In the Time Chamber. What's wrong? Marines are going to attack some village." a sound came from behind the door rang out.

"No. It's even more special than what you can imagine. Can you guess what it is?"

Yamato laid her hand on her chin trying to guess what is special about today. She couldn't think of anything else except her training in Ki and Kamehame ha.

"I can't come up with anything. Can you tell what it is?"

"Of course, you can't. It's beyond this world's normal common sense after all. Before answering, I want to ask Do you know Big New Morgans?"

"I know. It is a guy who writes articles. Why mention him?"

I smiled before answering.

"That's because. Our new media is going to air. All over the world. We are going to compete directly with Big New Morgans and Government."

"Wow. You establish your own brand media. Will this danger to your life since the government doesn't like things that they can't control? Even Morgans has to listen to the government sometimes."

"Don't worry. There is another guy who is responsible for this. I just lay down and enjoy the show from behind." I dragged Yamato to the rooftop of the building.

"Look to the sky, Yamato. He is going to broadcast a new."

Clouds in the sky started gathering in one place strangely. Gradually, those clouds turned into a square shape. 

Everyone all over the world could see this strange phenomenon.

At first, some people ran away in panic. The others stood still and pointed at the sky.

Government, Holy Land, Cake Island, Navy Headquarters, Yonkos could see this strange phenomenon.

The lightning struck those strange clouds. After the violence of striking lightning, the clouds turned black. It gradually shaped into a TV. Like a TV in the modern world.

"Yoo yoo. Hello everyone." A guy appeared and said a greeting.

"I know you are very panicky. However, this is just a normal broadcast. No harm to you guys at all. Please be relaxed and enjoy the show." A voice rang out. It was gentle, kind, and soft. It was suitable for all ages.

His voice soothed their nerves away.

"My name is Cameraman. And today, I will tell you the news that you will find anywhere else except me." he took a stack of paper before saying.

"To celebrate my broadcast. The first news of today is." he looked at the paper before showing it to everyone.

"The corrupt marine. Captain Nezumi."

After telling the name, he immediately revealed all secret information about Captain Nezumi, whom only marine and related organizations had, to the public.

"That is his profile. Now, we enter the main topic." he showed a video behind his back.

He moved away so that people seeing his news could see it clearly.

The video was about Captain Nezumi colliding with a pirate named Arlong. After only 3 minutes of video, his dirty act was revealed to the public.

Now, everyone knew Captain Nezumi both face and dirty deeds.

"Is this a lie?"

"Marines actually collide with pirates."

Since this news was revealed everywhere, there were 2 forces that didn't like this.

At Navy Headquarters.

"Get rid of it." 

A barrage of cannon fired to the sky but none was successful in destroying it.

"I am not paid enough for this." Kizaru shot lasers to the sky. It passed through the image and those clouds didn't disperse at all. Even the explosion of his laser couldn't eradicate those strange clouds.

Even Akainu tried to shoot Lava into the sky. No matter what methods they tried, they all failed to stop the broadcast.

"What's kind of this dark magic? Is this the work of some kind of devil fruit?" Sengoku mumbled. He wasn't lagging behind what currently happened.

"Any action or suspects that harm to reputation of marine must be heavily punished. Immediately, to all captains of other branches. We have an emergency that has to be dealt with quickly."

After blatantly revealing the side that Marines didn't want to show to the public, he continued telling the next news.

"The miracle bean is discovered at some special place. According to the seller, the bean is called Senzu Bean. It can heal the injury, grow the lost limb, and provide a lot of energy. And even, it can provide a dead person."

After being bombarded with news that even Morgan didn't have, people expressed their doubt.

"Revive a dead person. Are you kidding? Who do you think you are?"

"You think that I am a kid."

Telling a small bean can revive dead people. It was so hard to believe.

"And it's currently sold at those locations below."

The MC read the name of the location. People who were near the location looked at the shop that sold Senzu Bean.

Some curious people approached the shop to ask the price.

"How much is a bean?" 

A seller gave an answer by showing 10 fingers.

"1 000 Belly. Too expensive for a bean."

However, the seller shook his head.

"Not 1 000 Belly. It's 1 000 000 Belly."

"What. Do you think I am a child that is easy to be deceived?" he shouted at the seller. The seller could only shrug his shoulder.

He was told by Lady Furina to sell it at 1 000 000 on the first day. He did like what she said.

A buyer left in anger.

"I won't come back again." he left with a message.

Hearing the price, the crowd immediately dispersed since they smelt the scam there.

The seller took out a book and read as if he didn't care about their opinions at all.

Although it was expensive, it still attracted some people.

The second person who came to the shop was a navy.

"Such a small and normal-looking bean can revive a dead person. Are you telling me a joke?" Smoker said with a deep voice.

"This is one of the most stupid suicidal moves that I have ever seen." Smoker reached his handcuff ready to arrest this scammer.

"Do you happen to know the guy on the sky?" Smoker interrogated the seller by staring at the seller's eyes.

"Him. I don't know at all." the seller sincerely replied.

He didn't really know the guy on the sky.

'So he doesn't know' Smoker was a veteran so he knew the guy in front of him didn't tell a lie.

However, the seller's sincerity couldn't erase his doubt.

"Alright. Go with me to the marine base. We have a lot of things to talk with you. Starting with your obvious scamming."

The seller reached for the drawer under the table.

He was taught by Lady Furina that if he saw a potential customer. The first thing that he should do is take out a knife.

"Do you think that you can take down me with a knife?" Smoker took a deep breath of his cigar.

"People nowadays. Too stupid."

However. Out of his Smoker's expectation, the seller chopped his hand off.

"You see. My left hand is cut right before your eyes. Do you think my cut hand is fake?" Blood dripped out from his wound.

Smoker raised his brows in surprise. Seeing the wound, he immediately reached for the handkerchief in his clothes to stop the bleeding.

"And it's time for a miracle"

Enduring the pain, the seller swallowed a Senzu Bean. Smoker looked at the seller's action carefully.

A new hand grew from the cut hand.

"This is my marketing. Do you want to buy it?" 

Smoker took a quick glance between the cut hand and the new hand of the seller. He was trying to break the trick behind it.

"Those beans. How much?" Smoker asked.

"1 000 000 for each."

"Give me 10 Senzu Beans" Smoker threw a bag of gold coins. "If I know it is not true, you know the consequence of your action."

"Of course, I know Mister Navy. Trust must be built for a long time. Not like I will have it at first time."

Smoker took a bag of 10 Senzu Beans and made his way to the Navy base. Of course, he wasn't stupid to leave the seller. He had ordered his subordinates to observe the seller preventing him from running away.

Thanks to the scandal of Captain Nezumi, his head couldn't have a rest at all.

The broadcast was undoubtedly a big hammer slamming into the marine's face.

When coming to the seller, Smoker took a very soft method. He only struck up a conversation to investigate.

Not like other marines in other branches, they caught the sellers and threw them into the prison for custody and investigation. Since they thought the guy on the sky and the people who sold Senzu Bean were one group.

They tortured and interrogated those sellers for information.

"I see, Furina. You want to damage Marine's reputation by using media. A good way to hurt enemy without fighting."

"Since the Government has Big New Morgans to boast Marine's reputation and image, I have to create the opposite force. A force that is responsible for revealing the dark side of government and marine."

"I do this because I want to create a new balance. One that balances every force."

My mouth raised into a smile.

"And of course. To make things more interesting, a good thing should be saved at the end of the show."
