To achieve maximum benefits, it is necessary to let this news gradually spread out and, when it intensifies, bring out follow-up news.
Tesoro had long left Onigashima with Sister Misu, and was currently talking with her.
“This is a live broadcast, and it’s a bit different from what we discussed earlier. In order to smoothly carry out the plan, don’t dwell too much on the issue of the World Government. Do you understand?”
Originally, Tesoro was prepared to persuade her, thinking that Misu, after experiencing everything, might not easily agree.
However, reality proved him wrong.
“I understand. The moment of judgment will come sooner or later; this is just a prelude, and the Lord’s judgment will eventually come.”
“By the way, you’re a nun, right?”
“Yes, Mr. Tesoro, is there a problem?”
“Why do I feel like you’re more like one of those fanatics from the Inquisition?”
Tesoro was not religious, but he had encountered other missionaries and witnessed battles between so-called Inquisition. Those people were a group of fanatical believers who feared nothing when it came to their faith and were truly willing to risk their life.
If it weren’t for the island world of pirates, which has kept religious forces from gaining much influence, and only religions that are affiliated with the World Government can operate on a certain scale, then religion issues would have become a menace.
However, the World Government wasn’t particularly interested in this; they just treated them as a special group.
“I talked to Miss Shayna, and I think her ideas are right. What this world needs is purification.”
“….”
Now Tesoro understands why. A nun whose faith had already collapsed encountered another fanatic while trying to reshape her beliefs, and this fanatic happened to be a martial artist who advocated for revenge.
So the gentle nun changed, but the good news was that she hadn’t turned into a fanatic like those in the Inquisition.
“By the way, Mr. Tesoro, I’ve been discussing doctrines with Miss Shayna recently. Would you be interested in listening?”
“Uhh, let’s do that next time. For now, let’s take a look at the script. This is Lord Arceus’ order.”
“Alright, too bad.”
The good about such fanatics is that as long as it’s related to their beliefs, they will cooperate readily. However, the trouble also lies in the same aspect.
For example, if someone said something wrong in front of Shayna, unless Arceus intervened, Shayna would definitely flip the table* on the spot. That’s how Ulti learned a hard lesson back then. [*TN: get very angry.]
Being able to shut up a tsundere shows the extent of that anger.
He also heard that Misu had been practicing boxing with Shayna recently. Although she was already old, she would probably become a violent person in the future.
He could already imagine some slightly terrifying missionary methods.
Following the Eternal Pose provided by Morgans, Tesoro brought Misu to an unknown island. Such islands were not uncommon in the vast sea. Over the long history, the positions of many islands had changed, and the World Government is again responsible for erasing much of that history; especially the Void Century.
Combined with the unique geographical environment of the Grand Line, some islands became isolated due to special ocean currents, and normal Log Poses couldn’t detect their magnetic fields.
To find this place, a specially made compass is needed. This is one of Morgan’s many bases and although he can’t find these islands, News Coo, relying on their unique magnetic field sensing ability, can detect the presence of these islands.
These secret bases were also an important factor in his rise.
“Kwahahaha, welcome, welcome, the live broadcast is ready.”
Before the Beasts Fruits’ press conference, there was a live broadcast here by Morgans, similar to the live broadcast of the Summit War, but on a smaller scale.
Although Tesoro had smoothed things over with the main point, that was limited to the product launch event. Confronting the World Government face-to-face was something those officials dared not do.
World Government couldn’t officially assist in such matters; the best course of action would be to remain silent and issue a statement after the event.
Apart from that, Morgans had the most influence in this regard.
“Lights! Makeup! Hurry up! Sister Misu, come over here; you need to put on some makeup.”
Den Den Mushis were awakened one by one, and the writers in the World Economy News Paper were each preparing to write their articles. Although, based on the information, they had already written some articles, live broadcasts could lead to changes, and they would have to rewrite based on feedback from various places.
Due to the need to appear on camera and the lighting, the characters’ makeup was different from usual. The two girls quickly prepared the base makeup, then gestured to Morgans.
As the president of the World Economy News Paper, Morgans also served as the top reporter and part-time anchor here.
“Cough, cough, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this special live broadcast. I’m sure you’ve all seen our newspaper, but today we have found even more explosive news. We’ve unexpectedly found the survivor of the Flevance incident, Sister Misu!
Don’t be fooled by how healthy she looks now; just a few months ago, she was a patient of Amber Lead Syndrome. Let’s have the sister herself provide us with the specifics.”
Saying that, Morgans shifted the camera towards Misu.
“I’d left Flevance earlier due to church matters, but I did not expect to hear the news of Flevance’s blockade outside. Later, when I was staying at a friend’s house, I fell ill. Because of the fake news, my friend thought it was a contagious disease and kicked me out. My body became weaker and weaker, and I was at my wit’s end when I was taken in by the Beasts Fruits’ rescue station.”
This was a slightly modified version of the experience. The nun’s lengthy narration didn’t attract much attention, but Morgans kept bringing up some trending topics to maintain interest.
As the time drew near, the key topic of this broadcast was suddenly revealed.
“Their doctors cured Amber Lead Syndrome.”
As soon as these words were spoken, some doctors and scholars who were following this news showed expressions of disbelief. After all, they had long confirmed the fact that Amber Lead Syndrome was incurable.
But as the camera shifted, Tesoro had already appeared here, and some papers were placed in front of Den Den Mushi’s eyes.
“I know you all may not believe this, but here are detailed treatment reports and analytical papers. Tomorrow, they will be specially sold as news attachments along with the newspaper.”
“Although Amber Lead is poisonous, our expert team has successfully found a way to treat this disease after a long period of research.”
“Whether it’s in the active phase or the incubation period, our medicine shows excellent results. We will hold a product launch event in two weeks, where we will disclose all the specific details.”
Tesoro revealed the final details, the last step before their profit plan.
