After looking at the bounties in front of her for a few more moments, Diana suddenly stretched out her hand into the air, catching a newspaper that was thrown her way, before turning her attention towards Oro, who was currently handing some berries to a newspaper bird.
"Anything interesting in the news?"
"It's nothing major really, but you could take a look," said Oro, causing Diana to open up the newspaper.
Interestingly though, the story on the first page of the newspaper actually caught Diana's interest a little bit.
'Supernova Fire Fist Ace joins the Whitebeard Pirates'
Although the newspaper didn't go into much detail about how this happened, Diana couldn't help but become a bit interested.
"Four Emperors of the Sea huh, I wonder how powerful they are..." mumbled Diana, remembering the 2.7 meter tall man she met in the marine base, who felt really threatening.
Although fame and power didn't necessarily correlate, the fact that she hadn't heard of this man at all made it a bit difficult for her to believe that he could be as powerful as the Four Emperors.
Hearing Diana's words, Emily couldn't help but slightly smile.
"You can ask Uncle Thresh, according to him, he actually met 3 of the Four Emperors of the Sea back in the day," said Emily, causing everyone's eyes to suddenly rise, all of them surprised, including Diana.
Hearing the boasting words of his daughter, Thresh couldn't help but let out a cough.
"You can't say that I met them, I merely saw them for a few moments back when I first entered the Grand Line, furthermore, back then they weren't actually Emperors of the Sea just yet, and were part of the same crew," said Thresh, causing surprised looks to appear on everyone's face, even Emily's.
"Part of the same crew... interesting, so how powerful were they decades ago?" asked Diana as she looked at Thresh, who merely pointed to the ground, causing Diana's eyes to follow, reaching the middle of the Thunder, where the the divide between the new and old part of the ship was clearly visible.
"Although I don't know who they were fighting, the entirety of my crew instantly lost consciousness, after which the thunder was split in half by the aftermath of the battle, and if I didn't manage to awaken some hidden strength, I wouldn't have only lost an arm back then," said Thresh, causing Diana to slightly furrow her brows.
"The Thunder was split in half by the aftermath of their battle..." mumbled Diana feeling as though she had underestimated the 'Emperors', whilst the other members of the crew were completely speechless.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
"Old man, can anyone really have that much strength?" asked Daniel severely in doubt of the story that Thresh had just told the crew.
"I'm telling the truth, It's fine if you don't believe me, but I'm just warning you, don't underestimate the dangers of the Grand Line," said Thresh with a smile on his face.
Whilst the rest of the crew was shocked, one person currently had another expression on her face at the moment.
"Uncle Thresh, what about the rest of your crew?" asked Emily, who had actually not been told this part of the story, causing the smile on Thresh's face to freeze, and for the old man to fall silent.
Although the old man didn't speak, everyone understood what had happened, causing the crew to fall silent for a few moments.
At the same time, seeing the depressed look on her Uncle's face, Emily, who had asked the question, couldn't help but clench her fist, as a faint spark appeared in her eyes.
'Emperors of the Sea huh...'
...
At the same time, within Marine Headquarters
As he read the report that had just landed on his desk, Fleet Admiral Sengoku couldn't help but faintly frown before turning his attention onto the Marine Captain next to him.
"Is the information here true?" asked Sengoku, causing the captain to nod.
"We've already verified this with the surviving members of the Oakwood Island Marine Base, it's as the report says, sir" said the Marine, causing Sengoku to turn towards the old man in front of him, who was currently eating a donut.
"Captain you are dismissed," said Sengoku, causing the captain to leave the room, leaving the two old men behind.
It was only after the captain left that Sengoku began speaking.
"Garp, you haven't had a vacation in a few months, how about you go on a vacation to North Blue," said Sengoku, causing Garp, who currently had a donut in his mouth, to frown.
"Do you take for an idiot Old Goat, how could going to North Blue be considered a vacation, If I'm going on vacation I'm going to meet my grandson!!" said Garp, clearly aware of what Sengoku wanted of him.
"Would you really not consider it?" asked the Fleet Admiral as he laid back on his seat and touched his forehead, causing Garp to shake his head.
"What are you worried about, worst come to worst there'l be a new supernova from North Blue, are you really so worried about that? If you really are so worried, send another Vice-Admiral," asked Garp as he picked up another donut from the large box in his hands.
"There aren't very many marines free right now, most of them are guarding against Whitebeard," said Sengoku as he handed the report in his hands to Garp, who then began reading it.
A few moments later, Garp faintly frowned.
"Old Goat, are Marines Captains in the Four Seas so weak right now? 90% percent of the bones in his body broken in 1 punch?" asked Garp as he got another donut.
"Sadly no, that Captain Jon was actually quite competent, he was recommended to come to Headquarters for further training."
As he read the rest of the report, Garp further frowned.
"How accurate is the rest of this?" asked Garp.
"It's practically certain, most of the surviving marines had clearly seen how casual this newcomer was when she attacked that captain, she wasn't using nearly her entire strength, at the same time, no trace of Haki was identified," said Sengoku, causing Garp to pause for a few moments.
"Casually defeating a Marine Captain without using Haki, this physical strength is quite good for someone so young, hopefully we can meet when she comes to the grand line…" said Garp before beginning to laugh, coming uncaring about Sengoku's troubles.
"Bwahahaha".
