Flashback inserted: The classic scene of Shanks saying, "Give me some Face," during the Marineford War.
At the end of the video, Kaido impatiently declared, "Tomorrow, at the same time, I'm going to live stream more Pirate King revelations!"
The final shot froze on Kaido raising his middle finger, with the caption: "Gorosei? Get lost!"
After the video was released, the data exploded, and the entire sea was in an uproar.
-120 million likes (including what appeared to be accidental likes from several official Marine Base accounts).
-Top comment: "Red Hair: First of all, I didn't provoke any of you."
...
Inside the Mary Geoise Power Hall, the air was so thick it could almost be wrung out.
The blonde Gorosei's bone china teacup "crunched" and shattered in his palm, hot black tea dripping through his fingers onto the expensive Persian rug, spreading a dark red stain.
His temples throbbed, and the bulging blue veins on his forehead were clearly visible beneath his pale skin.
"He dared..." His voice was squeezed out from between his teeth, every syllable laden with thunderous rage.
The other four Gorosei exchanged silent glances.
Saturn's fingers unconsciously stroked the tip of his beard, the bald Gorosei's gold-rimmed glasses reflected a cold light, while the kimono-clad Gorosei stared intently at Kaido's arrogant face on the projection screen.
Suddenly, Venus expressionlessly pulled out his gold-rimmed phone, his fingers rapidly sliding across the screen, skillfully picking up another phone with an account named [Justice's Little Vest].
In the comment section:
[User [Justice's Little Vest]: Reported]
(IP Location: Mary Geoise · Power Hall · Second seat by the window)
Venus caught a glimpse of this comment out of the corner of his eye, and his mouth twitched even more violently: "You... didn't block the location!"
"..."
Just then,
The projection screen suddenly turned on automatically, jumping to Kaido's latest reply. He was laughing wildly into the camera: "Worororororo! I heard someone reported me?"
He suddenly changed his expression, his Dragon's Might erupting, "Then let me show you what real 'violating content' is!"
The scene shifted, and Kaido actually started throwing a tantrum in public!
"Turn it off! Turn it off immediately!!" The Venus Gorosei completely broke down, punching his phone away!
...
On the deck of the Red Force,
Shanks leaned lazily against the main mast, his phone constantly popping up notifications for Kaido's latest video.
"Here we go again..." The Red Hair Captain sighed, his brows furrowing slightly. He swiped the screen, and Kaido's drunken, large face immediately popped up, spouting nonsense to the entire world.
Yasopp poked his head out from the crow's nest: "Captain, what has he made up about you this time?"
"Beckman..." A muffled voice came from beneath the cloak, "Are we...?"
"Click."
A crisp metallic clink interrupted the Captain's words. Everyone turned to the source of the sound—First Mate Beckman was leaning against the ship's rail, methodically loading bullets one by one into the cylinder of his revolver.
"This time, I support you in punching Kaido." Beckman's voice was as calm as if discussing tonight's dinner menu, but his movements while loading were sharp and precise, each bullet entering the chamber sounding like a cold period.
The deck immediately erupted into chaos:
Lucky Roux's chicken leg "thwacked" onto the deck, rookie Rockstar nearly dropped his binoculars into the sea, and even the usually composed Yasopp's eyes widened.
Because everyone knew that when Beckman used the word "support," it usually meant things were serious enough that even the calmest First Mate couldn't stand it anymore.
Shanks finally pushed his cloak back, revealing his eyes with a helpless smile: "Even you say so..."
"He really went too far this time." Beckman pushed up his glasses, the lenses reflecting a dangerous glint, "First, he spread rumors in his live stream that you're a Face-Face Fruit user, then he used your relationship with the Gorosei to stir up trouble..."
Yasopp suddenly interjected: "But Captain, you do often ask people to 'give you some Face'..."
"....."
...
In the TikTok live stream, the bullet comments exploded, with all sorts of remarks frantically flooding the screen:
"I took off my pants just for this?!"
"Kaido chickened out? My youth is over!"
"Gorosei: Let's solo! Kaido: No thanks, uncle."
Several Pirate analyst streamers with millions of followers turned green.
Famous streamer "Pirate King Analyst Old K" had just set up his professional tactical analysis board, which still had a comparison chart of Kaido and the Gorosei's combat power. Now he could only scratch his head awkwardly: "Folks... this... the situation suddenly..."
The bullet comments immediately flooded in:
"Refund!"
"Professional analysis for nothing!"
"Unfollowed, unfollowed!"
The "New World Intelligence Bureau" live stream next door was even worse; the streamer had just started a paid guessing game and now had lost everything. The bullet comments were all:
"The bookie ran away!"
"Thanks for the boss's plane... ah, no, it's a complaint!"
"This wave, this wave is Kaido and the streamer teaming up to fleece us!"
The most ridiculous thing was that the number one trending topic on TikTok, #IfIWereKaido#, had now all turned into parody videos.
One streamer cosplayed as Kaido, waving at the camera: "Why fight? I'm going to live stream an explanation of the Pirate King novel!" Likes instantly broke a million.
The official Marine TikTok account secretly went online and posted a short video: Fleet Admiral Akainu's black-faced back as he slammed the door shut, with the caption "No war today." The comment section instantly turned into a meme convention:
"Akainu: My magma is ready!"
"Gorosei: The five of us against one of you. Kaido: I choose to go AFK!"
"Suggest opening a room number next time, I'll send a sky-piercing arrow!"
The most miserable were the small merchants who had rushed to produce "Kaido vs. Gorosei" merchandise overnight. The T-shirts were already printed, and now they could only clear them out at a loss, with tears in their eyes.
In the live stream, the streamer was shouting hoarsely: "Families! Selling at a loss! Order now and get a 'I'm a Clown' sticker!"
Meanwhile, on Onigashima, Kaido was leisurely flipping through novel chapters with his legs crossed, occasionally letting out "wororororo" laughter.
Queen whispered: "Boss, did we go too far...?"
Kaido didn't even look up: "What's the rush? The real show is yet to come."
...
The next day,
The TikTok platform instantly exploded!
Kaido's official account suddenly updated with an explosive video, with a simple and crude title: "Fleet Admiral's Face-Planting Record."
The video began with a high-definition screenshot of the novel's content, showing Fleet Admiral Akainu slamming the table and roaring in the Mary Geoise Power Hall:
"You must give me an explanation for this Doflamingo matter!" His magma fist slammed onto the conference table, burning a charred hole, "Where do I put my Face?!"
The novel content was described as if at the meeting, with the mustachioed Saturn slowly rubbing his hands like a fly, then suddenly roaring: "What is your Face worth?!"
The novel stopped abruptly here, with this dialogue written in black and white, absolutely authentic!
