Chapter 271: Influencing Morgans
The Auction had ended, but for the Pirate Expo, it was just the beginning.
This was a celebration, a grand event.
Based on the previous Pirate Expo held on Honeycomb Island, which lasted for nearly two months.
This time, it would likely be held for about a month and a half.
The Auction was merely one part of it.
Pirates were still continuously flocking towards Sicily Island.
Large amounts of goods and supplies poured into this massive trading market belonging to pirates and the Underworld.
Auctions would continue.
Having witnessed the first one, others would subsequently bring out items they wished to auction.
When the quantity reached a certain degree, the Auction would be held again.
Sicily Island was exceptionally lively, and the number of Pirates on the Island was still increasing.
Upon arriving at Sicily Island, they quickly immersed themselves in this carnival feast belonging to Pirates.
Fine wine, delicious food, and various forms of entertainment.
Pirate Crews were setting up flags in various areas of the Island, recruiting members and gathering resources.
On this platform, the arriving Underworld Forces also discussed some cooperation among themselves.
The order of the Underworld needed to be re-established; competition among them was fierce, whether in seeking partners or becoming enemies.
Those with stable positions didn't need to worry; they could just watch from the side or perhaps intervene.
Meanwhile, throughout the entire world, various news stories swept across the globe like a tidal wave, mostly concerning the Pluto Pirates, the World Expo, and the Auction.
There was also the Sword Tournament that the Pluto Pirates were about to hold.
Especially the Sword Tournament, which was an absolute focal point of attention.
The Great Sea had never before seen such a grand event belonging to Swordsmen.
That Battle Pyramid was even more world-renowned, a unique and unparalleled super landmark building.
With the tacit approval of the Pluto Pirates.
The World Economic Journal, a large newspaper agency that had not yet become the industry leader, sent a young reporter named Morgans to be the first guest to visit the Battle Pyramid.
He changed camera after camera in his hands, his excited shouts continuous.
"Hoh hoh! This is truly amazing!"
His cries of astonishment made the guarding Pluto Pirates members feel somewhat bewildered.
Aren't they tired?
They felt it was getting a bit noisy.
A day later, the World Economic Journal's newspaper was completely covered with content about the Battle Pyramid.
A large amount of information material, exquisite photo descriptions, perfectly displayed the mysterious internal full view of the Battle Pyramid.
The Battle Pyramid, with a total of eighteen floors, had six hundred and seventy-two battlefields.
Around each battlefield, there were also considerable viewing stands.
And this was only a portion of the Battle Pyramid's space.
Besides the battle areas, the Battle Pyramid's internal facilities were complete, boasting over sixty thousand luxurious suites available for residence.
These rooms were all located on the exterior of the Battle Pyramid, offering views of Paros Island and the distant Great Sea, whether during the day or night.
Not only was the view excellent, but some flowers and plants were also cultivated.
High-level training areas equipped with various cutting-edge equipment.
Medical areas capable of monitoring body condition at any time and helping the injured recover quickly.
In addition, there were various recreational venues.
Food areas featuring ingredients from the Four Seas, gathering top chefs from the Great Sea, capable of creating top-tier cuisine.
Bars offering various top-tier fine wine.
Hot spring areas, ice baths, and comprehensive massage services.
Game areas, luxurious casinos, and even an internal forest park.
Descriptions covering every aspect, considering almost every possible need, fully showcased the luxury of the Battle Pyramid.
The construction cost exceeding one hundred billion Beli made people feel dizzy.
This felt less like a so-called battle venue and more like paradise, a place that would only appear in dreams.
This was an exclusive report.
Only the World Economic Journal had received the tacit approval of the Pluto Pirates.
The World Economic Journal's newspaper sales surged, and its influence also greatly increased thanks to this exclusive report.
Along with the credited reporter, Morgans, who instantly became a world-famous figure.
This situation made colleagues in the industry feel incredibly envious and jealous.
Why wasn't it me?
Although Morgans' appearance was somewhat unexpected for Hades, ultimately, it was due to connections.
Behind the World Economic Journal stood the Landis Kingdom.
Whether cooperating with the World Telephone Bug Group or the World Economic Journal, the essence was cooperation with the Landis Kingdom.
Besides the World Economic Journal, the Landis Kingdom also controlled over a dozen newspaper agencies that were at least medium-sized.
It seemed the Landis Kingdom planned to help the World Economic Journal advance further, leveraging the influence of this event.
However, even if the Landis Kingdom didn't intervene, this future "Big News" figure could still bring the World Economic Journal to an unprecedented peak.
News reports, like brainwashing, continuously built momentum for the Battle Pyramid.
Attracting others to travel to Paros Island.
Paros Island was already open and continuously expanding, being built according to the pre-planned city design.
That's right, the Kronos Kingdom was preparing to make Paros Island the core island of the Pluto Sea Area.
To build Paros Island into a super metropolis centered around the Battle Pyramid.
To allow residents from around the world to come to Paros Island.
The Kronos Kingdom's Island Turtle would subsequently carry those who wished to come to Paros Island directly from the North Blue, through the Calm Belt, to the New World.
Without needing to pass through the dangerous Grand Line.
"Deep Sea Current" Umit was also simultaneously expanding his own transportation business in the Four Seas, cooperating with the Kronos Kingdom to safely bring residents who wanted to go to Paros Island to the North Blue.
The current situation of the Great Sea dictated that not everyone could reach the New World.
Some people lived their entire lives on one island, or wandered between a few islands, unable to even cross a small Sea Area.
At least, not yet.
However, the Great Sea was developing, technology was advancing, and Hades had plenty of time.
The Battle Pyramid became an instant sensation, and his most important objective had already been achieved.

is this better syntax, or did I stick to the old one? Anyone comment?
