One Piece: With Sign-in System

[The Traveler Ron, with a bounty of 430 million Berries, encountered Admiral Akainu and Vice Admiral Garp in the North Blue! He successfully escaped!]

[Confirmed: The Traveler Ron has inherited the Float-Float Fruit abilities of the legendary Golden Lion!]

[Six battleships under Akainu and Garp's command were destroyed by his Devil Fruit powers! Over 50 Marines were injured, though none fatally. The Traveler Ron and his crew escaped unscathed!]

[The Traveler Ron took a punch from Vice Admiral Garp and blocked an attack from Admiral Akainu with his sword, splitting the sea for several kilometers! His strength has now been confirmed to rival that of a Great Swordsman!]

[A mysterious blue-haired girl, suspected to be Ron's comrade, attacked a battleship, displaying what appears to be the strength of a master swordsman!]

[The Traveler Ron directly warns the World Government and the Marines: "You will regret this in the future!"]

[The terror of the Float-Float Fruit and the seas it upheaved!]

[A 17-year-old prodigy, commanding the skies aboard a ship of freedom. Is the fifth Emperor of the Sea about to emerge?]

With these explosive reports from the North Blue, the entire sea was thrown into an uproar!

Everyone understood one thing.

A new young powerhouse had risen on the seas.

Unlike Shanks, who gradually ascended to prominence, Ron's emergence was far more shocking and far swifter, forcing his name into the minds of every great force and strong individual on the seas.

The Traveler Ron—once only a whispered legend in the distant seas—was now a name that ignited a storm across the Grand Line and even the New World!

…

On a remote island in the Calm Belt, the Kingdom of Amazon Lily, an intense discussion was unfolding within the palace of the Kuja tribe.

"The Marine Hero Garp and Admiral Akainu failed to capture him. The Traveler Ron officially declared a break with the Marines and announced his entry into the Grand Line. Will this event mark the beginning of a new legend on the seas?"

Elder Nyon, leaning on her cane, read aloud from the newspaper. Her voice quivered slightly as she continued, "Or… could this sea be welcoming its fifth Emperor?"

Sitting atop her throne, Boa Hancock, the Pirate Empress and one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, appeared indifferent. She reclined lazily, her slender hand propping up her exquisite face. Her deep blue eyes, breathtakingly beautiful, opened slightly as she listened to Elder Nyon's words.

"The fifth Emperor?"

Sandersonia, her younger sister, looked shocked.

"Wasn't that guy, Ron, just some newcomer not long ago?"

"These newspapers exaggerate everything," Marigold, the other younger sister, scoffed, crossing her arms and flicking her tongue. "How can anyone qualify for that position so easily? To become an Emperor, sheer strength isn't enough by itself."

"What do you think, Snake Princess?" Elder Nyon turned her gaze to Hancock.

On her throne, Hancock remained poised, resting her face against her hand. Her demeanor was a picture of laziness, indifference, and supreme confidence, her beauty dazzling and cold as ever.

"What does it matter if the sea gains a fifth Emperor?" Hancock's voice was calm and detached. "Does it have anything to do with me?"

"Of course it does! You're one of the Seven Warlords!" Elder Nyon retorted sharply, tapping her cane on the floor in exasperation. "If the balance between the Seven Warlords, the Four Emperors, and the Marines is disrupted, the power dynamics of the sea will change drastically! Do you think Amazon Lily will remain as peaceful and stable as it is now? You're the Empress ruling this island—shouldn't you at least take these matters seriously, Snake Princess?"

"Call me Lady Snake Princess!" Hancock shot her a cold glance, her tone filled with disdain. "I don't need your guidance on what I should do."

"No matter how the seas shift, I will always protect this island."

Standing up from her throne, Hancock's long black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall. Her flawless, porcelain skin, combined with her stunning face and her tall, voluptuous figure, perfectly embodied her title as the most beautiful woman in the world.

With one hand resting on her hip and her upper body leaning slightly back, she pointed imperiously at Elder Nyon with her other hand. Her voice was filled with pride as she declared, "I am strong enough and beautiful enough that no matter what I do, I will always be forgiven!"

"Ah~! Lady Snake Princess! Such beauty!"

Sandersonia and Mariegold gazed at her with unbridled adoration, their faces full of awe and worship.

…

Inside the eerie castle on Kuraigana Island.

"Oh? A slash that cuts through several kilometers of sea, with black flames burning..."

Mihawk, the greatest swordsman, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the newspaper in his hands.

"The Traveler Ron, a 17-year-old Great Swordsman… Interesting."

"Do you think you could be my opponent?"

Hawkeye Mihawk set the newspaper down, took a sip of his red tea, then grabbed his black sword, the Supreme Great Blade, Yoru. After strapping it to his back, he put on his black top hat and walked toward the door.

With the title of the world's strongest, it was lonely at the top. He hadn't found an opponent worthy of his time for a long while.

How boring.

…

Dressrosa.

"That kid actually got the Golden Lion's power?!"

Donquixote Doflamingo clenched the newspaper tightly in his hand, his expression darkening with every passing second.

"Doflamingo?"

Torrepol, his nose running, glanced over at him.

"Six years... And that kid has already grown to the point where he can block an attack from that freak Akainu?"

Doflamingo gritted his teeth, his face clouded with anger.

"Just how terrifying is that kid's potential?!"

For the first time, he felt a chill of threat from a faraway place.

"My lord, that guy's strong, but it's just him alone."

Diamante spoke in a dark tone. "If he dares to come to the New World, to Dressrosa... we'll deal with him together and eliminate him."

The other executives of the Donquixote family turned their gaze toward Doflamingo, sitting in his throne, bathed in shadows.

Doflamingo lowered his head, suddenly breaking into a sinister laugh.

"We don't even have to lift a finger. The World Government and the Marines won't sit idly by while a fifth Emperor emerges on the seas. The Four Emperors won't allow another Emperor to rise!"

"A 17-year-old ruler? Blah, blah, blah, what a joke. How could the old men in the World Government allow that?"

Doflamingo lifted his head, a savage grin spreading across his face.

"If that kid dares to enter the Grand Line and the New World, unless he stays up in the sky forever, what awaits him will be a joint attack from the Marines, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and possibly even the Four Emperors!"

"And if he joins one of the Four Emperors?"

Trebol couldn't help but ask.

"That's impossible. Even Whitebeard wouldn't accept that guy now."

Doflamingo shook his head.

If a power of the Emperor level were to gain such a top-tier fighter, with abilities that could rival an Emperor and such youth—his presence would make the other three Emperors cautious, and the Marines would never tolerate it. In the end, it would lead to a massive hunt against him from all sides.

Even Whitebeard, the strongest among the Four Emperors, couldn't withstand it.

"That kid's just too much of an eyesore! His age, his strength, his ability… even his very existence is starting to make some people uneasy."

"Those at the top of the world's power can't allow him to exist. If they feel threatened by him, there will be no place for him in this sea!"

As Doflamingo's mocking laugh echoed, his subordinates in the Donquixote family exchanged uneasy glances, unsure of what to think.
