The next day, the newspaper featured news about the agreement between the Yonkou, Monkey D. Luffy, and the World Government.

People all around the world were shocked as the Straw Hats clashed with the Marines in Dressrosa, where three admirals had been deployed, including the retired Sengoku, in Luffy's absence. However, when the Yonkou himself appeared, the tide of the battle turned against the Marines. One admiral was gravely injured, with witnesses reporting massive fire explosions, and the other two were captured shortly after, with Luffy assisting his crewmates.

Morgan News had been mapping all of the group's movements, reporting crew members in various locations across the New World. Today, there was a clear explanation of the crew's current state, with Dressrosa's area becoming their new headquarters, shown in a photo featuring floating islands in the sky and others surrounding Dressrosa, with even the Gran Tesoro out at sea.

People were wondering how a Yonkou had turned Dressrosa's territory into such a formidable force, and what would happen in the New World with the impending war.

The agreement outlined a condition in which the World Government and the Straw Hats had a non-aggression pact, handing over the former Fleet Admiral, Sengoku, but still holding Fujitora, an admiral, as a hostage in their territory to ensure the Government would not launch an attack against them in the Wano war.

Those who were beginning to regain faith in the Marines after what had happened a year ago were left in shock at this moment, for in a short time since Monkey D. Luffy had returned to the sea, two admirals had fallen: one severely injured, recovering, and another being held hostage by what people believed to be the most dangerous pirate group in the world at that moment.

With the Government unable to attack them due to the agreement, people were fearful, especially those who were more enthusiastic supporters of the Government worldwide.

In addition to the non-aggression pact and the islands around Dressrosa, another page in the newspaper emerged, showing some children around Luffy with the headline: "The Monkey D. Lineage Continues." The article claimed that Luffy already had five children.

Luffy couldn't hide this information, no matter how much he wanted to, as he would never cease to be present as a father to his children, something he himself didn't have in his childhood, just like Ace and Lucy. Naturally, this information would be easily noticed by the Government, so Luffy wasn't too concerned about having his children in the newspaper; it was only natural.

However, for the world, it was quite shocking that Monkey D. Luffy already had five children. People who feared him, worried about safety and stability in the world, began to wonder what this era and the next would be like, especially since the mothers of these children were also very powerful. Would the World Government let these children grow up? After all, the Government had already failed to kill Roger's own son.

"Damn pirates! Curse them!" shouted a man in a place far from Dressrosa, crushing the newspaper page in anger. "I swear I will destroy them! Even you, Lucy, joined this crew—what a disappointment," Zephyr exclaimed, staring at the newspaper that also reviewed some information about the pirate crew, and there was a picture of Lucy, a young woman who had trained enthusiastically with the Marines, only to end up becoming a pirate in the midst of the war and turning her back on the Marines.

"Well, that doesn't matter anymore…" he murmured at the end, staring seriously with eyes gleaming behind his glasses. "We'll have to destroy them," he said, with a clear plan to start intervening in the New World, ready to set it into motion.

Pirates from the New World were also reading the newspapers and reacting in different ways. Some simply turned their ships and headed to Dressrosa, as they owed a debt to that Yonkou. Others began formulating plans to destroy them, while some stayed on their islands, unconcerned, thinking of ways to draw Luffy's attention.

In Wano, Big Mom had finally arrived, and with her entire family, she was preparing for the war with the Beast Pirates. They were discussing what they had read in the newspaper.

"Soon he'll come here, and that bastard…" Kaido muttered, angrily. "Is that Yamato's daughter…?" He saw the photo of a little girl with horns who resembled his daughter, making the world's strongest creature clench his fists. "Well, I'll take my granddaughter after killing her father," he concluded, determined.

"Mama... it's a shame I have to kill him. He would've made a good son-in-law..." Big Mom said, looking at the newspaper next to Kaido. She was also thrilled and eager to have Luffy's lineage within her family, maybe even forcing him to procreate as she had done with other daughters before killing him or stealing his soul, unaware that Lola was already one of his lovers.

Meanwhile, in Dressrosa, Luffy flipped through the newspaper and set it aside, not caring much, as a pirate group stood before him. He was sitting once again in the newly built throne room of Dressrosa, holding audiences with various visitors brought by his crew and others who had come on their own.

"Luffy-Sempai!!! There's a group here saying you gave them a challenge more than a year ago, and they survived the seas of the New World and managed to make a small name for themselves. They're here to claim a place in the fleet. What should I do with them, Supreme King of the Universe?!" Bartolomeo shouted.

"Just 'captain' is enough, no need to overdo the titles, Bartolomeo. And yes, I remember them very well, I also sensed their presence on the island. You can let them in," Luffy said calmly, while Bartolomeo nodded with stars in his eyes before leaving. Shortly after, the group entered.

"Lord Luffy!" they all said, kneeling before him.

"You don't need to kneel before me. I'm a pirate, not a king," Luffy said calmly. He avoided demanding these things from monarchs, even though his goal was to become the emperor of all seas. He wouldn't stoop to the level of asking people to kneel and worship him. They all stood up, and Luffy continued:

"Anyway, as you know, we're going to attack Wano, and I won't force you to join. I'll accept you into my fleet, but if you want to stay and train until you feel ready for war or sail the seas under my flag, you can choose, but training is mandatory." Luffy said calmly. He wasn't going to go back on his word given to these people, even though it was a reward a little above 200,000,000 berries, these men had still proven their worth to him.

"We want to fight by your side, Lord Luffy!" said the group's captain, and Luffy nodded.

"Alright then, but we'll stay here for a month to train you, so get prepared," Luffy said, and everyone agreed.

The next to arrive were the Ideo Pirates, who had a slightly longer conversation with Luffy. The long-legged captain stared at him for a while after hearing his proposal; they had already discussed it on the ship while coming to Dressrosa.

Luffy spoke about the challenges they would face regarding their goal to dominate the sea, find the One Piece, and even fight for the world's freedom.

"Alright, we'll follow you, Monkey D. Luffy. I'll believe in your words!" Jinbei said.

Luffy nodded. "I've already asked Jinbei to organize your stay. Look for him. We'll start training soon," Luffy said, and the pirates nodded, leaving the place.

The next visitor came in tied up by Usopp. "Let me go, you bastards!" Cavendish kept yelling as he struggled to break free from his restraints, but he couldn't do anything as he was led to the center of the throne room, his gaze falling on Luffy, who was just standing there, observing.

"Damned Monkey D. Luffy! I had such a perfect life until you, the worst generation, showed up in the New World, damn you!" Cavendish began shouting at him while Usopp just shook his head.

"Don't be a fool. Now let's have a nice conversation," Luffy said and ordered Usopp to release Cavendish. "Now leave us alone," Luffy commanded, and Usopp left the room.

As soon as Usopp was gone, Cavendish, now free, lunged at Luffy, shouting, "Bastard!" However, his body was sent flying to the other side before he could do anything, crashing into the wall. Luffy hadn't even stood up, just casually swatting him away as if brushing off a fly.

At that moment, amid the crash, a grinning face emerged, speeding towards Luffy. As soon as it got close, its neck was firmly gripped by the Yonkou, who held it in place without letting it move.

"You know, I still don't understand how this transformation works, but you are really fast. However, you're also weak at the same time," Luffy muttered, grasping it so easily that he thought this would be more challenging. Before the grinning face could do anything, Luffy hurled it against the wall, causing it to revert back into Cavendish, who fell unconscious.

The blonde opened his eyes as Luffy poured water over him from a cup he retrieved from the system. Cavendish awoke, dazed. "What's happening? What a headache! I remember almost killing that damn Monkey D. Luffy in my dream…" he muttered, before looking at Luffy, who stared at him as if he were an idiot.

The conversation continued, and eventually, Cavendish left the throne room, frustrated but unshackled. As he walked away, he sought out Jinbei to remain in Dressrosa, finally accepting to join the crew.

Entire fleets began to occupy Dressrosa's port, including the Grand Fleet of Yonta Maria, which was also there with its captain.

Luffy met with Orlumbus and quickly convinced him, as well as all the members of their respective crews. The only ones left were Sai and his family with their mercenary fleet, which now also belonged to the fleet.

Even King Elizabello II ended up accepting, seeing Luffy as far more efficient than the Marines and agreeing to move his kingdom to this area as well.

After an entire day of audiences, Luffy finally stepped out, realizing there was no point in staying there any longer. He intended to enjoy the banquet that night with his entire fleet, now significantly larger. Starting tomorrow, training for the new members would begin, especially for those who would be participating in the assault on Wano, ensuring that Dressrosa was ready for any challenge they might face in his absence.
