One Piece: God Killer

When Morana woke up again, she heard the sound of waves in her ears, and the unique smell of the ocean came from the air around her. Apparently, while she was sleeping, Profik and others had already taken her to the new ship, the Bifur, and set out to sea together.

Now, it was getting bright, and they were far away from the Kingdom of Stars. In this way, even if Morana doesn't want to, she has nothing to do.

Of course, if this happens, Profik will suffer.

"I heard, 'Render to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's.'" Morana's tone seemed a little cold. "Profic, what is going on now? Can you explain it well?"

"Well, don't worry about it yet," Profik said with a smile, "It's a long story."

"Then please keep the story short!" As he said this, Morana stretched out an arm and leg and hugged Profik's shoulder.

Profik was startled and subconsciously stepped back, but was held tightly by Morana: "You, this... ability user?!" He finally realized that Morana was also an ability user. !

"I heard, 'Bridges lead to bridges, roads lead to roads'. Let's talk about my business later." Morana pulled Proficio closer, "Tell me right away, what is going on? Otherwise , I won’t let you off lightly!… It’s not you who drugged me, right?” At this time, Morana had also realized that it must have been Profic and Heite.

"This is..."

The current situation can no longer be concealed from Morana, and there is no need to continue to conceal it. Profik had no choice but to tell Morana about the incident.

At that time, what Heite handed to Profik was nothing else but a copy of the World Economic News.

"World Economic News" is the most influential, widely distributed and authoritative newspaper in the One Piece world. The boss behind it is Morgance, one of the kings of the underground world who can be considered a big figure even in the world.

Morgans himself is an esper in the form of Bird Fruit and Albatross. Although he cannot fly for some reason, he has indeed made great achievements in the newspaper industry. With its informants scattered around the world, the World Economic News Agency can obtain major events happening in every corner as quickly as possible, and with its ubiquitous news birds, it can distribute news to all parts of the world as quickly as possible . Anyone can get a newspaper from Newsbird as long as they pay the corresponding Beli.

To be honest, Profic was still very interested in this technology that could remotely control news birds, but he didn't know whether these news birds were due to training or came from Morgans' own abilities.

In any case, with his pervasive intelligence collection system and ability to quickly transmit information, Morgans occupies a very high position in the public opinion circle of the One Piece world. Even the world government has tried to cooperate with it in an attempt to manipulate public opinion. Of course, sometimes he would exaggerate the facts or even make up news based on his own subjective wishes or in order to attract attention. For example, he once placed the Flame Tank Pirates under the command of Straw Hat Luffy, and promoted Luffy to the "sea" the throne of the fifth emperor. But this person is not completely without journalistic ethics. For example, Morgans will not accept black money to report things he does not want to report. He does not like others to control his reports. The content published in the newspaper must be decided by himself.

Due to the important influence of Morgans and his World Economic News in the world of public opinion and the press, the bounty notices issued by the Navy and the World Government were also attached to the World Economic News and sent to the outside world.

And the newspaper that Heite handed to Profik happened to contain Morana's bounty.

"'Black Veil' Morana, a reward of 30 million beli!"

In addition, Profic, Gao Shifu and Matifa also have bounties on their heads.

"'Tax Resistor' Profik has a reward of 30 million beli!"

"'Monster Sailor' Gao Jufu has a bounty of 30 million berries!"

“‘Webweaver’ Matifa has a bounty of eight million beli!”

In addition to the reward amount, the reward order also attached the main "crimes" of several people in small print. Morana's charges were "harboring fugitives" and "colluding with pirates to attack the king's rebellion."

Profik's crime can also be seen from his code name. Tax resister, as the name suggests, is a guy who refuses to pay the sky's money. The crime is naturally to kill the tax collector. As for Buck and Star, who were also involved in the matter, the reason why they were not offered rewards may be because they were just accomplices.

Gao Shifu's crime was to assist Profik, while Matifa's crime was actually assigned to tax resistance.

It can be seen that when the World Government or the Navy released the bounty, they deliberately concealed the fact that several people had fought against World Government agents, and also hid the parts related to Nico Robin. However, it's clear they took this factor into consideration when setting the bounty. Gao Shifu's bounty of up to 30 million is obviously derived from his main position in the battle with Lu Qi.

From a world government perspective, this arrangement makes perfect sense. After all, secret service agencies like CP9 themselves are unknown to the general public.

Likewise, the lack of bounties on Fuentes, Buck, and Star could be interpreted as a lack of combat effectiveness when faced with agents of the World Government.

As for Heite, he, the guy who presided over the meeting to kill the king, was not rewarded. In this regard, Heite's explanation is that killing Horus is the decision of the entire country. For the sake of face and profit, the World Government will not reward Heite for this.

"So that's it," Morana suddenly realized after seeing the reward, "I heard, 'The city gate is on fire, affecting the fish in the pond.' It seems that this guy Heite is afraid that I will bring him trouble."

"It's also to protect you." Profic reminded. He knew that Heit was worried not only about the possibility of the navy going to the Star Kingdom to capture Morana, but also about the possible revenge of the "joker" hiding in the dark at any time.

"Humph!" Although he still made a dissatisfied expression, Morana calmly let go of Profik, "In this case, I will reluctantly forgive you."

"By the way," Morana then asked, "Where is Star?" She had not forgotten that Star had proposed staying in the Star Kingdom.

Profik said with some sadness: "He finally chose to stay in the Star Kingdom, and Mr. Heit also needs someone to help him."

Originally, before seeing the bounty, Profic insisted on waiting in the Star Kingdom until Star's injuries recovered before going out to sea together, but the bounty on his head disrupted the plan.

Although the world of One Piece is relatively chaotic, the bounties offered by the World Government still have certain benefits. Being subject to a bounty means that you will be targeted by the navy, bounty hunters, and even ordinary civilians, and you will not be able to continue to hang out in the Star Kingdom. Otherwise, not only may it be intercepted by the navy, but it may also bring unnecessary trouble to the Star Kingdom.

And Star happened to not have a bounty on his head, so leaving Star in the Star Kingdom became a better choice.

Although it was sad to say goodbye to Star, Profik was not too worried. Because, Heite has a high probability of becoming the king of the Star Kingdom, and Star follows Heite, ensuring safety and life without any problems.

"In that case," Morana chuckled. While laughing, he stretched out his right hand and held it with Profik's. "Then please give me some advice, Mr. Captain!"
