I am currently en route to Water-7, Jimmy the Sea King told me that it would take another 4 hours to swim there so yeah.

“Hey, Sibyl. This ore, should I not keep some with me for my future ship?” I asked her.

[No need.] She answered.

“…”

“Huh? Why not?” I asked in confusion.

The quality of this ore is beyond that of Adam’s Oak, it seems quite a decent idea to save some for myself.

[Remember when I said that a Crew of 7 will come with certain perks as it is the wish of the Supreme One?] She asked me instead.

“Right! You said to accept the absurdity of His request and that it has its own special abilities and whatnot.” I recalled from a handful of years ago.

[Right, and this quest that I showed you 7 years ago will answer your earlier question: ]

.

[Create your own Crew – Rewards: Blessed-Crew Gift Pack]

.

“Right, it was under the {Other} tab in the quest log you first showed me.” I nodded.

I then looked at the rewards and exclaimed in understanding and asked, “I’m assuming this ‘Gift Pack’ comes with something better than Blood Ore?”

[Indeed. So you need not worry about this unique ore.] She finished her words.

.

‘Well, I could still keep a few blocks just in case I want it for a weapon or something.’ I thought to myself.

Well after that thought came another, one regarding the Rocks Crew.

—–

Rocks Pirates were a crew of notorious individuals. They housed 3 future Emperors and were led by a greater monster.

Rock D. Xebec.

He wants to be the ‘King of the World’ according to Sengoku.

And he certainly had the strength to reach for such a goal.

The man fought off the entire navy and needed the joint hands of Roger and Garp to finally put an end to his tyranny.

He along with his crew went to a Celestial Dragons’ gathering and laid waste.

With only the stronger commanders making it out, as the captain fell.

The crew is known to have many deaths even between its’ own members. Many died by the blades of their own ‘comrades.’

This group of pirates was the absolute crew of monsters, where only the strong could stand under the banner of ROCKS!

.

After the fall the remaining members, Whitebeard, Kaido, Big Mom, Shiki, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, Captain John, and a few others made it out and recruited their own crew which became renowned in the coming future.

—–

“*SIGH* What a messed up crew… thankfully right now there are only a few members since it hasn’t yet been formed. I believe the Rocks Pirates were formed on Hachinosu Island (Blackbeard’s territory) sometime later.” I recall from the manga.

“It is now mid-1482 so I have a while till the official formation. And until then need to absorb as much experience to aid in my future plans.” I said to myself.

“Though I wonder why a man like Whitebeard or even Shakky would stay in such a vulgar crew… Must be a deeper story underneath then…” I scratch my chin while thinking.

I sigh, “Well either way I will stay till God Valley and branch off from there, but I do want to start my ‘Crew of 7’ soon. So far I am definitely going to try and recruit Mihawk when he gets older, and I have a few thoughts on the rest.”

“Sibyl, remind me again how the Rocks Crew never came to be known by the people?” I asked.

Even now, with their total strength being already really high, somehow the world knows little about them.

[The marines or more specifically the World Government heads are suppressing the News.]

[At this time the world News Agency seems to be directly under the Government, so controlling news is quite easy for them.] She said.

“Right, Rocks members themselves never cared to spread their news so the government had them erased from history.”

“Rocks D. Xebec and the Rocks Crew were utterly forgotten!”

I squinted my eyes as I went over the minimal knowledge I had about their adventure.

“How bold of the Government to erase a man like Xebec from history, for a man vying for the World’s Throne to a man who didn’t even exist.” I shake my head in disappointment.

“How can I, a man of peace, allow such a world-shaking crew of monster be forgotten in the river of time?”

“How can I not do my part and enlighten both the living and the future children of this world?”

“How can I rob them of this knowledge?”

“How can I allow such a thing?”

“To erase away such a crew, to manipulate history, they don’t even know that without studying history, one is condemned to repeat it.”

“Blasphemy to the future! I must do something about it…”

I start grinning like a maniac.

“The world will know! I wont allow them to be forgotten or erased!” I smile while putting a few ‘plans’ together.

{{COME TO ME!}}

I yell with my Voice to the creatures of the sky.

*Chirp*

*CAW* *CAW*

*TWEET*

*Chirp* *Chirp*

Thousands of birds, crows, and eagles flew down around me, circling me like a tornado.

They started chirping and cawing in submission, waiting for my words.

Awaiting orders, no matter how absurd they may be.

{{Spread yourselves over the world! Find me the Headquarters of the World News Agency!}}

I commanded them with my Ancient Voice.

*CAW!*

*CHIRP!*

*REEEEE!*

*HOOOOT!*

*TWEET!*

They all called out in their own voices and flew in every direction, like that of shrapnel exploding out of a grenade.

They all heeding my words, throwing away their need for food, sleep, and any other luxuries to do as I commanded.

‘Once I find the HQ I can have them exit the World Government and become an agency of their own.’

‘And if possible I will either control or partner up with them and gain a huge ally.’

‘To control the flow of news is to control the world itself!’

[A/N: The News Agency HQ is naturally hidden from the world. Their smaller branches are known worldwide but, just like in the Manga with Morgans, the HQ’s location is never known. Let alone under the Marines it must be Top Secret info.]

.

“Sibyl, label this plan as ‘Operation Nexus’.}

“To have the World News Agency exit from the grasp of the Government and become independent. Time limit is up to 1486 though preferable within the next year or two.” I tell my System as I smile menacingly.

[Affirmative Damien. But I must ask you to stop grinning like that, it’s giving me the creeps…] Sibyl groaned.

Ignoring the latter part I nod as ask once more.

“Hypothetically speaking, can I control the head of the Agency with my {Ancient Voice}?”

[Hmm… You could just weaken his will with your Haki then compel him but I’m afraid that would be eventually be discovered by Cipher Pol.]

[After all, they probably keep the head under great control, knowledge is the most powerful tool in the Omniverse after all.] Sibyl rejected my plan.

“Any suggestions?” I ask her.

[1. Risk it with The Voice.]

[2. Kill the current head and bring in a Puppet under your control.]

[3. Find someone who won’t fall under the pressure of the Government and make him work under you.]

[4. Mimic a cloning fruit and send your own clone.]

[A/N: This is a clone-type fruit, NOT Mr. 2’s fruit but one that can literally make a clone of the user***]

[5. Destroy the world and make your own version with your own agency.]

—–

“Geez girl you need to be a bit plausible, like seriously, that plan 5 makes me look like the final boss or something…” I put on a deadpanned face.

“As for the first 4… number 1 and 2 will be difficult. Influenced by Voice may be overruled by a stronger Will suppressing the compelled head.”

“A Puppet will eventually be found out since I can’t be naïve to think that the other workers haven’t been infiltrated by CP and find out someone else is the real boss.” I shake my head.

My eyebrow furrows as I think about the other options, “Find someone who can work with me as the head and not fall under CP’s pressure or use the Mimic token to make a clone. Haaaa looking for the fruit or fruit user is difficult.”

‘However a cloning fruit… it is quite useful, it may even function like Naruto’s shadow clone…’

“Alright! I will find a good replacement and partner up with him or her… if that fails then I can look for the Clone-type fruit sooner than planned and do it myself. So I can only wish for Option 3 to succeed…” I squint my eyes as I reach a conclusion.

“Sibyl,” I call her.

“Look through my memories and find everything you can about ‘Big News Morgans.'” I request her.

‘Morgans may deal with the government but he does share whatever he thinks the world should know about. He even rejected the ‘encouragement’ of CP-0 and went against their wished to publish fragile topics.’

Sibyl’s voice then flowed into my ears.

[I found some details about him up to the chapter you read to…]

>=-=—-[]—<>—[]—=-=<

[‘Big News’ Morgans]

[Age: 53 as of 1524]

[Occupation: World Economy News Paper President]

[Other Titles: Emperor of the Underworld]

[Derived Information: ]

– Morgans gets excited by major events, looking forward to reporting them as news to the world.

– Retains his calm and composure regardless of a ‘big scoop’ or despite the chaos and danger the opportunity presents.

– Morgans takes utmost pride in his occupation as a journalist and does not tolerate being called otherwise. He is even willing to risk his life on occasion just to take pictures of a newsworthy event. He is not even afraid of incurring an Emperor’s wrath upon himself.

– He can also be prone to letting his personal biases influence his news stories.

– Unscrupulous individual and deals with many different individuals and groups to ‘bend’ the news.

>=-=—-[]—<>—[]—=-=<

“Morgans… 53 years old by 1524, so he would be around 11 right now. That age is enough considering his intelligence. Also, I can get him to work with me: an early relationship that controls the views of the world will greatly help my cause…”

“The only problem is finding him, I have no clue where he is from.” I frown at my little roadblock.

{{Hey Jimmy, if I asked you to send out orders to every Sea King in the sea, can you do it?}}

I asked the blue sea monster that was escorting me to Water-7.

(It can be done, we can also ask other sea animals to work with us to find whatever the Lord desires.) He responded.

{{Good! I want you to find any human who utters the name ‘Morgans’. If you do find one, send amphibians on land and investigate further. Tell them to look for kids around 10-12 years of age. I want every Sea King in the World looking for him.}} I give a ridiculous order.

(As you wish Great One.)

“*SIGH* This is ridiculous. Well I will get all the birds, the ants, the trees to look for him too. As long as he isn’t in the New World, I should be able to find him soon.” I sigh out loud, pausing my plans.

‘I also need to get into the Underworld. The reach of the Government stems too far out, to hold in power for 800 years is quite impressive. Even by declaring war on the government, they can easily recruit militia through drafts and propaganda.’

“These are thoughts for later, I will deal with them eventually. For now, I need to publicize the workings of the Rocks Pirates!” I smile as I finish my impromptu scheming.

I then look at the horizon and see quite an interesting island.

The island resembles a giant fountain in a volcano shape with the tiered system of buildings and houses down the structure. Water flowed down from the top all the way to the bottom, out from the canals and tunnels built to guide it.

“Water-7, here I come!”

[The following is excluded from word count]

Author’s Corner:

The diabolical plans are unrolled.

The entire Rocks Pirates Crew were literally erased from the map and history which is such a waste.

Hiding an individual who required the combined might of Garp and Roger to defeat!?

Can’t allow this to happen… otherwise, how would MC take advantage of this temporary crew?
