Great Voyage: Luffy’s voyage is revealed at the beginning Chapter 007

Chapter 7: Editor-in-Chief Sta’s Affirmation

Ling Long quickly returned to the hotel and immediately began to write furiously, producing a news article titled “Shocking! Disabled Colonel Sets a New Benchmark for the Navy!”

Half an hour later, having finished writing, Ling Long immediately sent the photos she had taken and the news article back to the news branch.

“Finally finished. I hope it brings good results…”

Ling Long’s lips curved slightly. She stood up and was about to go downstairs for dinner when her Transponder Snail rang.

“Buruburu buru…”

Ling Long’s heart stirred, and she instantly guessed who was calling her. It was undoubtedly Editor-in-Chief Sta from the branch office.

In fact, even if Editor-in-Chief Sta hadn’t called, Ling Long would have called him.

“Editor-in-Chief, is it about the news…”

Before Ling Long could finish speaking, Editor-in-Chief Sta’s excited voice came through the receiver:

“Ling Long, you’re amazing! You found another great piece of news. It was definitely the right choice to make you a permanent employee. You’re a lucky star for our branch!”

“You flatter me, Editor-in-Chief, you flatter me. But, are you sure you dare to publish this news?”

“Why wouldn’t I dare? Who are we? We are journalists! Don’t worry, I will definitely publish this news, and it will be the front-page headline!”

Editor-in-Chief Sta’s tone was firm, and there was no doubt that the news would be published.

Ling Long’s lips curved slightly, and she hesitated, “What about the Navy?”

“The Navy? Heh… Our news agency dares to publish scandals of the World Government, so why would we be afraid of the Navy? Don’t worry, everything is covered by Lord Morgans.”

Ling Long secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and said, “Then I’m relieved.”

“Good, that’s it then. If you have any good news, just send it back. Don’t worry about other issues. Oh, and Vice Admiral Garp has already arrived in the East Blue. Try not to run into him.”

“Understood.”

After hanging up the phone, Ling Long’s mood brightened considerably. She went to the next room, dragged Luo Lie out, and began to buy various supplies with him.

Ling Long planned to leave this island tomorrow, and she had already chosen her next destination: Orange Town, where Buggy was located.

In fact, more than a month ago, Ling Long had secretly visited Orange Town once.

But when Ling Long arrived at Orange Town, she found the town to be very peaceful, with people living and working in contentment, and the Buggy Pirates were not there at all, which made Ling Long a little depressed.

Now, Luffy had also set sail. Calculating the time, it was likely that the Buggy Pirates had already occupied Orange Town and driven the townspeople into the mountains.

So, now was the time to find Buggy.

…

While Ling Long was purchasing supplies, on the sea, Luffy and Koby were sailing in a small sailboat towards Shells Town.

Although Luffy’s departure was delayed by Ling Long for some time, Luffy still encountered Koby. Perhaps this was what was called fate?

Koby shook Monkey D. Luffy, who was sleeping, and said in surprise, “Mr. Luffy, so you’re Vice Admiral Garp’s grandson!”

Luffy opened his eyes, propped himself up on the boat, and sat up, looking at Koby curiously, “Hmm, but how did you know?”

Koby held up the newspaper he had just bought and said, “The newspaper, it’s published in the newspaper. There’s even a picture of you on it.”

“Newspaper?”

Luffy glanced at the News Coo flying away in the sky and smiled, “So the news is already out, huh? Koby, let me see the newspaper.”

“Okay, Mr. Luffy.”

Luffy took the newspaper and immediately saw the huge headline.

“Shocking! The Navy Is Corrupt? The Hero’s Grandson Chooses to Become a Pirate!”

Seeing this huge headline, Luffy couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth, but after quickly reading it, he nodded slightly.

The reporter named “Dragon’s Roar” didn’t write anything false in the newspaper. The content of the news was roughly consistent with the interview.

However, this news headline was a bit troublesome. If Grandpa saw this news, he would definitely beat himself half to death, right?

Forget it, I’ll deal with it then.

I wonder if Ace will see this news?

As long as he sees this news, Ace will also know that I’ve set sail, right?

Ace, although you set sail before me, I won’t give up the position of Pirate King to you. I’m going to be the Pirate King!

“Mr. Luffy, I’ve been on pirate ships and met many pirate crews. They are all bad guys.”

Koby clenched his fists and shouted loudly, “Singing, dancing, adventuring, none of these have anything to do with pirates. Pirates are not the freest people; they are just thugs…”

“Bang~”

“Ah~”

Koby held his head in his hands, looking pitifully at Luffy, and said aggrievedly, “Mr. Luffy, why did you hit me?”

“Sorry, I couldn’t help it.”

…

“Mr. Luffy, is the straw hat on your head really Pirate King Roger’s?”

“I don’t know either. Shanks gave me this straw hat.”

“Mr. Luffy, did Emperor Shanks really lose his arm saving you?”

“Yes, but I don’t remember saying anything about this during the interview. I don’t know where ‘Dragon’s Roar’ got this information.”

Some content was added to the news, and some was removed, such as the information about God Valley and the Rocks Pirates, which were not written in it.

“Dragon’s Roar is a reporter, and reporters are best at digging for information. I guess someone in your village told him, right?”

“Hmm, possibly. Many people in the village know about this.”
