“It’s over, guys! Don’t stand idle; it’s time to move!”
The live broadcast of Den Den Mushi was shut down, but the core members of the World Economy News Paper didn’t stop. Instead, they activated the headquarters’ hot air balloon to prepare for relocating the island.
Even though Tesoro had managed to smooth out some relationships regarding this matter, it didn’t resolve all of the World Government’s factional issues. If he could make all officials follow his lead, he wouldn’t be in his current position.
To be on the safe side, he kept changing his location each shoot.
“Do you want to come with us? Although we can’t take you to our destination, it’s no problem to drop you off along the way.”
Morgans had a few secret bases, and he was willing to abandon one for this piece of news, as it had the potential to shake the world. However, he couldn’t let outsiders discover the next base.
“No need, we have our own means of transportation.”
Afterward, Tesoro left with Misu on a boat, and on the ship, some people had been waiting for a while.
“Audinno, Audinno.”
An Audino took its ears off from a device resembling a radar. One piece world already had radar technology, but it was rarely used due to the inability of most wooden sailboats to carry such equipment.
The skewed technological tree made fully armored ships rare here. This semi-living radar was developed based on Audino’s characteristics, and it didn’t detect any other ships approaching.
“Let’s go; the trip back will not be easy.”
Someone dressed like a masked superhero urged Tesoro to set sail quickly. This was actually King, just in different attire. Staying in Wano Country every day didn’t suit his personality, so he occasionally ventured out when manpower was sufficient.
The reason he could come was because, in this world of severe face blindness, some people’s eyes were almost entirely useless, especially in the photographer organization.
To say that they are weak, but oddly enough, they are unscientifically strong. They manage to capture photos in various battlefields, from various angles, of various powerful monsters, and yet they all come out unscathed.
To say they are strong, but they are actually quite ridiculous. Forgetting to open the lens cap, unable to find the true appearance—such things happen from time to time, with King, Cracker, Shayna as examples.
Their true identities have never been discovered. At least Shayna and King wear face masks, but Cracker, even on wanted posters, is just a biscuit shell.
This kind of mission is most suitable for Olga, but there has been a small problem in the first part. Her show has been brought forward ahead of schedule, and she is currently planning her operation over there.
So, King changed into a new set of leather clothes, and Smeargle helped dye him a new color. With the flames on his back extinguished, almost no one could recognize him as King. The one accompanying him was Greninja, a newcomer who has never been revealed.
As the Beasts Pirates moved towards the scheduled address for the press conference, doctors and some scholars worldwide became excited.
“Amber Lead Syndrome has been cured? How is that possible? How did they manage to do it?”
“Teacher! Your speculation was correct; Amber Lead Syndrome is not a contagious disease but a mineral disease. Someone confirmed it!”
Shocked or impressed, doctors worldwide had the most significant reaction. A disease which has been recognized by the medical community to be incurable has been completely cured, causing a seismic shift in the medical community.
At the same time, some people dismissed it, thinking it was a lie, aiming to expose the deceiving statements and also prove themselves.
Some doctors were in it to save lives, while others valued their own reputation more. The commotion caused by Beasts Fruits presented a natural opportunity for them.
According to the address and date Tesoro revealed, those who could reach there had already begun to act. Those who couldn’t make it or lacked time started pulling strings, having others represent them.
Live broadcast and subsequent news reports were entirely different from the firsthand experience on the scene.
On the day of the Beasts Fruits press conference, many reporters and professionals from various fields had already gathered. As time passed, Tesoro appeared on time and immediately dropped a bomb.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I know you have many questions. Seeing is believing. Below, we will announce our research findings, a breakthrough achieved by our dedicated team after years of hard work!”
Then, he projected a large image using a Projector Den Den Mushi, showing the molecular structure of Amber Lead. What happened next, Tesoro himself didn’t understand, but in short, the molecular structure was completely destroyed.
“If there are professionals among you, you should understand what this means. This is our method for treating Amber Lead Syndrome, addressing it at its roots and allowing it to be expelled smoothly from the body.”
However, the atmosphere among the audience was different from what Tesoro had anticipated. Many doctors couldn’t comprehend what was happening, and those who specialized in studying metals were whispering among themselves, seemingly excitedly verifying something.
“It’s done like that? Have we been on the wrong track before?”
“Yes, if this is feasible, but… how did they do it?”
“I don’t know; what is this substance? And why is it capable of doing this?”
The place gradually became noisy, and only then did Tesoro reveal a pleased smile. This scene was just right.
“Mr. Tesoro! How did you guys manage to do this?”
“Mr. Tesoro! How did you discover this substance?”
Questions came one after another. So, Tesoro took out the research paper.
“Ladies and gentlemen, don’t rush. The detailed process is all documented in the research paper. We are going to make it public next. Except for a few classified information, the methods and principles will be shared with everyone!”
He then signaled his assistant to distribute the prepared materials to everyone, and people below used various ways to pass it on. Even Vegapunk’s laboratory received a copy, though Vegapunk wasn’t interested, and left it to Caesar Clown to skim over it. Despite his questionable ethics, Caesar had a natural talent for chemical materials.
Soon, he automatically filtered out the irrelevant parts, focusing on the crucial sections.
“The principles are sound, and it indeed destroys the structure of Amber Lead, but what exactly is this substance?”
What they revealed wasn’t important because many things followed the same principle. The key was the substance that destroyed the structure of Amber Lead, something Caesar couldn’t comprehend.
Not only him, but everyone who saw the data couldn’t understand.
In fact, even the author of the paper, Queen, had no idea what substance it was. This was because he wrote it based on the reverse process of Diancie condensing Amber Lead.
It was a power belonging to Pokémon, something never before seen in this world.
