"I don't know, but he did say that he would definitely take a copy of that helmet back to experience what it's like to be a beta tester."
"Hmm...it does seem feasible, but Okubo, are you guys from 933 really not going to give it a try?"
"Forget it, we don't really like playing games, and we don't have much time for it anyway. Xiaoyu is a college student, he has plenty of time. We still have to work, and we only managed to find time to have a drink today because we're on holiday for the past few days."
"Yes, that's right. We're also going to visit Mr. Kiyotaki soon. But... Mr. Shiraha, is Gin still playing shogi with you every day?"
Bai Yu nodded and said, "You could say I play every day, just with different numbers of games. I can feel that I'm improving a lot, and I've started to figure out my own style."
Kaneda Suekichi sighed and said, "That's true, but... that girl's main training is probably her mental fortitude. I checked this morning, and in the last two months, Gin's new account has gone from a 100% win rate to just over 30%. Mr. Shiraha, you're too ruthless..."
"Hmm? Sometimes it's not just me playing. When guests come, when we're doing other things, or when we feel like it, Lucy and the others will take over for a couple of rounds."
“Uh…”

Chapter 167 Jinx's Grievance, Beelzebub Wants a Date (Please Subscribe~)
Just as Bai Yu said, in the afternoon they really did visit Yoshikawa Yuki's family. Although they knew about Bai Yu's arrival beforehand through Yoshikawa Yuki and the others, they were still very happy to see him.
Nami also took Robin and Carina for a leisurely stroll in the afternoon, and they also went to visit Kurakichi Rino. Kurakichi Rino was pleasantly surprised to see Nami and the others, thinking that Shiraha had come, but it turned out that it wasn't. However, she was still very happy that her sisters had come to see her.
Robin and Karina now understood why Kurakichi Rino possessed such charm. Putting aside her beauty and great figure, she simply understood how to read people's minds, which alone was enough to attract many people.
Upon learning that Karina was a songstress, Kurakichi Rino's eyes lit up. Grabbing Karina's slightly flustered expression, she exclaimed with delight, "Songstress?! How about becoming an idol? With that figure, that look, and all those talents, I could definitely make you a star!"
Nami just covered her mouth and chuckled. Did they really think she just wanted to go shopping? She really wanted to stay with Karina and Robin, but neither of them had made a decision yet.
Rino Kurakichi works for an entertainment company, and one of the top companies in the Kengan Association. She would definitely be interested in Karina if she met her. Women in their world, unless they are made of steel, generally have exaggerated body proportions. Karina's figure and appearance would definitely interest Rino Kurakichi.
"I...I'll think about it."
"Yes! No problem! Anytime is fine!"
These were Karina's words as she left. She was somewhat afraid of Kurakichi Rino, not for any other reason than because of what Jinx and the others had told her. She was genuinely worried that Kurakichi Rino might have ulterior motives towards her, since she had never been in a relationship before.
When Robin and Karina returned, they were completely different from when they first arrived. They had changed from head to toe, and Robin even had a new pair of sunglasses.
This was the first time Robin and Lux had ever felt that shopping could be so tiring. Another thing was that Jinx and Lux were both a bit withdrawn, especially when Robin was trying on clothes. Jinx's face puffed up after glancing down at the figures in the clothes. How could they all be so outrageous?!
I originally thought Robin was about the same as Nami, which would be acceptable since we're used to seeing her. But Robin has a better figure than Nami. However, at home, the only one who can rival Jinx for the bottom spot is Kasugano Sora.
"Honey, we went to see Rino today. She immediately took a liking to Little Fox and wants her to go to Golden Entertainment. She said she can definitely make her famous. Now she's eyeing her own people, just like Shion."
While eating, Nami was still talking non-stop about her experiences that day to Bai Yu and Lucifer. Ichihara Yuuko nodded and said, "That's right, this girl is now... Akali, Sona, Ahri, and now she's got her eye on Kalina. Hey? By the way, isn't she also eyeing you, Hai Meng?"
"So, today... ah? Rino-nee... she told me that you'll be a minor celebrity in the future, the chief model for WGO youth magazine, and it would be great if you could become a movie star or something. I didn't refuse, but I didn't agree either. I said that I had to ask my husband and Managi-nee about it."
"Then Rino said there was no rush, and we could talk about it later. They would definitely agree. Plus, there's Sakurajima-senpai that you mentioned, and those junior girls that Garuda mentioned. Compared to Rino, Shion-nee's ability to win people over is really weak."
Lucifer laughed and said, "There's nothing we can do. It's an education group, so they definitely want technical talent. There are plenty of lazy people at home, but how many of them are actually good at teaching or organizing documents? If you're talking about fighting, then there's a whole bunch of them who can pick on anyone they want."
Yuko Ichihara clicked her tongue and said, "Of course, otherwise why do you think she would have kept trying to win Chifuyu over for three years after finding out she was also a teacher? She even spent the summer trying to win her over. But, well, I've already reserved Yumiko for me, hehe... Yukari and the others will be coming too. I feel so good about myself."
Lucifer waved his hand and said, "You should get the company up and running first. Honey, whose parents did you visit today?"
This was the topic that Nanami Fukami and the others wanted to know, and everyone looked over. Shiraha tilted his head and said, "Oh... I visited Fukami and Yuki's parents today. Since the two families don't live far apart, and I was also quite curious about what Yuki's parents are like."
Yuki Yoshikawa's eye twitched slightly as she said, "Honey...did Mom say anything, like...?"
"Then you don't need to worry, because your aunt didn't mention you at all. She basically just told me to take care of my health while running the shop, and to keep a close eye on your studies. Then we talked about marriage."
"Um... I don't know whether to be happy or heartbroken for a moment, but it's not all bad. Honey, isn't Mom excited to see you?"
Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Excited? I wouldn't say excited, but it's definitely a welcome feeling."
"Of course, you're their son-in-law, so it should be the same for the Shen family."
"Well, I was planning to visit Asuna's house or Uncle's company, but I thought Asuna would be getting new gaming equipment soon, so we'll see then."
Asuna breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I actually feel much more relaxed now. But honey, you have to get through this, or Mom will definitely scold you!"
Bai Yu just smiled and shook his head without saying anything. Beelzebub suddenly chuckled and whispered in Bai Yu's ear, "Hey, let me give you a report. My servants have already attached themselves to the lands of Charlos's father and his family."
"So, what is that?"
"Hey... it's probably just a few dozen diseases and curses that won't kill you immediately but are incurable... hey... how about that? Sounds reliable, right?"
"It's pretty awesome."
"Hey... Of course, it should flare up in a few days. We'll see then. Since I'm so reliable, when are you going to consider taking me on a date?"

Chapter 168 Morgans's Newspaper, Bai Yu's Plans (Please Subscribe~)
Although he didn't know what Beelzebub was going to do, Bai Yu didn't refuse. After receiving the reply, Beelzebub just smiled and didn't say anything.
The day passed peacefully, with no newspapers published. But that wasn't the key point. The key point was... not just any newspaper, but all of Morgans' newspapers. Even the seabirds were fewer today.
This atmosphere made Sengoku and the others vaguely feel uneasy. In fact, the newspaper was already prepared, with a full page of news, but the reason why the newspaper was delayed in being published was that Morgans did not know what kind of headline to use.
So Morgans had locked himself in his room for an entire afternoon, still unsure of what name to choose. But Morgans's stagnation had many people sensing something unusual.
Every newspaper was money. Although people often ate for free, a newspaper wasn't particularly expensive, so if someone robbed it, so be it. The whole ocean read Morgans' newspaper, which brought him enormous wealth and fame.
Morgans always sends out a daily newspaper, no matter how big or small the event. But the fact that he hasn't sent one is unusual.
Either Morgans escaped, or he encountered a major news event and was preparing a big move. Everyone was more willing to believe the second possibility, because the first and second possibilities meant the same thing: it was impossible for Morgans to be forced to escape unless the Navy was trying its best to suppress some information.
A major event related to the Navy is about to unfold. Last time it was Ace's escape, so what will it be this time? While others are speculating, Sengoku is not only guessing but also very anxious.
The evening was much quieter, but the Nakano Five Sisters did come for extra lessons as promised. However, this time they came after dinner, ordered some snacks, finished their homework, and then went through some more material before leaving.
It's worth mentioning that Nino Nakano didn't have many concerns this time. After mustering up the courage to ask Shiraha the first question about cooking, she wasn't so nervous anymore.
Lucifer and the others were quite happy that there weren't many customers today. They were even happier that Bai Yu wasn't busy, because that meant they, the shopkeepers, could spend more time with him.
Beelzebub also told Lucifer and the others about the flies. Yuuko Ichihara and the others nodded in agreement. Momousagi and the others didn't come; they were probably rushing to Marine Headquarters at full speed.
There weren't many customers that night. Xiaolin didn't work overtime today, and Tony still didn't come. If they didn't know that Tony had gone on summer vacation and knew how to get to the store, they would have thought that Tony was probably dead.
Life went on as usual. Those who were supposed to go to WGO went to WGO, those who were supposed to go to school went to school, and those who were supposed to go for a stroll went for a stroll. Shiraha also visited Hinami Aoi's parents in the morning and planned to go to Hori Kyoko's house in the afternoon.
However, since Hori Kyoko didn't have time to come, Shiraha thought it would be better to wait until Hori Kyoko returned before going over, so Shiraha took a car directly to a place.
"Brother Baiyu! What made you decide to come here?"
Bai Yu looked at the three people in front of him and said with a smile, "As expected, Shuuji, you didn't go to the expedition tournament."
Shuji Taneshima scratched his head and said with a smile, "Hey, it's just a matter of time. If I were to take a plane, I'd probably die. How can I compete if I'm half dead? But congratulations on your engagement, Shiraha-nii."
Happy engagement! x2
"Thank you. As for Gui's question earlier... he was probably just bored. Talking to Lucy and the others would probably spoil their conversation. Since the U17 team is about to start training camp, he had to come and check it out."
Kanata Irie paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Brother Shiraha, you're not worried that the training intensity is too high and those kids won't be able to handle it, are you?"
"Of course not. These kids are a golden generation that won't appear again for a long time to come. It's really interesting that all the schools are ushering in their golden age. This should be the most brilliant generation."
All three nodded, and Shuji Taneshima chuckled twice and said, "Shall we go see Coach Mifune? He must be bored right now."
"Forget it, I'm not really interested in playing. I'll bring Yumiko and the others to watch my training in a while, and we'll see then. By the way, is that kid still practicing?"
"Hmm...he really wants to beat up that Byodoin guy. But, Shiraha-kun, are you coming over to watch the training camp later? Should we tell the coaches?"
"Then there's no need. Telling Coach Kurobe would probably require calculating some data again, which would be troublesome. We're just here to take a look, mainly to put Yumiko and the others at ease."
Shuji Taneshima tilted his head and said, "As expected, Shiraha-nii, you're still the same doting husband you are. But speaking of which, Shiraha-nii, what do you think the U17 results will be this time?"
"No one can predict the outcome of a match easily. After all, at certain times, a person's beliefs and determination can influence many things, including the outcome that you care about."
"That's true... otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly joined the junior high team. So, Brother Baiyu, are you looking at the training grounds, training equipment, or training content?"
"Just browsing around. I only invited you guys over because it wouldn't be convenient for me to just come in if you hadn't come."
The three of them, including Oni Jujiro, didn't say much. They led the four of them, including Shiraha, towards the training camp, chatting and laughing. They could occasionally see many high school students training around them. Seeing this scene, they didn't dare to make a sound. Some of them knew Shiraha, while others were simply afraid of Oni Jujiro.
Meanwhile, on this sunny, cloudless midday, when even the pirates were still feeling lazy, they suddenly heard birdsong. Hearing this sound, many of the great pirates knew that the newspaper deliveryman had arrived, and after waiting for a long time, he finally got his.
The sailors swallowed hard. During the time Morgans had been silent, nobody knew whether he knew about this or had any photos. He had simply gone into hiding.
Sengoku grabbed the newspaper and slumped into a chair. Tsuru and the others also looked rather grim; it was obvious what had happened.

Chapter 169 An Excited Perona, Ace's Glee (Please Subscribe~)
The sea was in an uproar. Everyone, from commoners and nobles to pirates and marines, was shocked.
Perona was completely stunned in Hawkeye's castle. She floated over with a newspaper in hand and shouted in a voice that could be heard throughout the castle: "Hey! Seaweed-headed monkey! Hawkeye! Something terrible has happened! Something really bad is going to happen!"
Hawkeye and Zoro, who was practicing his sword, were both stunned for a moment. Hawkeye frowned slightly. Could it be that the Navy was going to deal with the Seven Warlords of the Sea ahead of schedule?
Perona had just floated over when she saw Zoro walking towards her with his sword on his shoulder. She said irritably, "I'm not... never mind, what could possibly scare you like this?"
Perona held up her newspaper and shouted, "Manager Shiraha is here! Manager Shiraha has come to our world!"
Zoro sighed and said, "Isn't it normal for Manager Shiraha to come here? But this also means that Manager Shiraha is back from vacation, which is really good news."
"Idiot! That's not the point! A monkey is a monkey! Why don't you learn from Manager Shiraha instead?!"
Hawkeye paused for a moment, then said, "You mean... Manager Baiyu came, and then something big happened? You're holding the newspaper. What did Manager Baiyu do that's in the world's newspapers?"
Perona swallowed hard, let out a sigh of relief, and exclaimed, "Manager Shiraha killed a Celestial Dragon in public! And right in front of Akainu, Garp, and a bunch of Marines! Akainu and Garp were seriously injured and unconscious and had to be carried away!"
Upon hearing this, both Zoro and Mihawk's pupils contracted. This was indeed a major incident. Mihawk wasn't afraid of admirals, but in front of Sakazuki and that old monster Garp, with CP0 members by the side of the Celestial Dragons, to kill them in front of such a lineup and severely injure them would likely cause the Navy and the Celestial Dragons to lose face.
Zoro knew how outrageous the Celestial Dragons were. Luffy had just attacked one of them, and as a result, the entire Marines of Sabaody Archipelago rushed over, along with an Admiral and a Shichibukai. Shiraha had killed the Celestial Dragon directly, which had a huge impact.
Why did Shopkeeper Shiraha kill the Celestial Dragons?
"It's in the newspapers! Shopkeeper Shiraha killed a Celestial Dragon after saving a little girl who was about to be murdered. But before killing him, he tortured the guy the whole time, and then waited until Garp and Akainu arrived before killing him. He even said a lot of things! He was so cool!"
"What did Manager Bai Yu say?"
Perona didn't say much and just threw the newspaper to Hawkeye. Hawkeye quickly glanced at it and figured that whether it was Bai Yu stepping on a Celestial Dragon's head or holding up a Celestial Dragon and confronting an Admiral, it would probably be used as a poster by many people.
"As expected of him, was he deliberately waiting for these two to arrive? It seems that Shopkeeper Shiraha has given up on the Navy. However, the world will change completely in less than three years."
"What do you mean?" x2
"How do you think Mrs. Lucifer and the others will deal with the fact that he spoke rudely to Shop Manager Bai Yu?"
Upon hearing this, Zoro shuddered. Those were genuine gods and demons, all of them in their twilight years, obsessed with their husbands. If they knew, the Celestial Dragons probably wouldn't even qualify as specimens or fossils for future generations to study.
Meanwhile, on another ship, Whitebeard, who was drinking and gazing at the sea, was about to raise his bowl when Marco ran over, exclaiming in surprise, "Dad! A Celestial Dragon has been killed!"
"Gurararar... He looked like either a naive young man who had just set sail or some madman. Was he killed?"
"No! Dad! The other party wasn't a pirate, and right in front of Akainu and Garp, surrounded by the Marines, they were brutally murdering a Celestial Dragon in public, and Akainu and Garp were seriously injured and unconscious!"
"Hmm?! Gurararara... What a bunch of brats..."
"Not a group, but one... and these two were easily defeated. The CP0 guards died on the spot!"
Whitebeard was also taken aback. He knew very well how strong Garp was, and what was most outrageous was that this guy was so old, yet he showed no signs of declining. It was estimated that the only thing the years had brought to him besides changes in appearance was a decrease in physical strength.
It's outrageous that such a monster, along with Sakazuki, was defeated by just one person. This means that this person's Haki must be at least stronger than Garp's, who is at the pinnacle of Haki.
Ace, looking surprised, leaned over, took the newspaper, and said with a smile, "Akainu? Wasn't he still stunned by the old man? This person must be... Manager Shiraha?!"
"You know him?" x2
Ace breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I was captured before and locked in the 1v6 Infinite Hell. I was able to leave because I went to Shopkeeper Shiraha's shop and then met Rayleigh, the Dark King, which is why I came back."
Although Ace was an impulsive person, he still knew what to say and what not to say at crucial moments. Whitebeard smiled and said, "Gurararara... that's really someone worth befriending, after all, he saved my dear son. But, Ace, you said he's the shopkeeper? What shop?"
"Rayle the Dark Lord will frequent either casinos or taverns."
"Yes, it's a restaurant. Manager Bai Yu's cooking skills are superb, but this is the first time I've known that Manager Bai Yu is so good. His wife is also very good, I know that."
"Gurararara... What an interesting brat, Ace! If we ever run into him again, let's invite him to a party on the ship!"
"Meeting him wouldn't be a problem, but it depends on whether he has the time... Hmm... As expected of Manager Shiraha, you can really feel how angry Akainu is just by looking at what he's saying."
Marco sighed and said, "That's true, but he should still be careful. Now that Morgans' newspaper has been published, the entire ocean is probably going to be in an uproar. The Navy and the Celestial Dragons will be frantically searching for and arresting him."
Hearing this, Ace laughed and said, "Don't worry, if Manager Shiraha doesn't want anyone to find him, then absolutely no one will be able to find him. I'll go tell the other captains and crew members, and they'll probably all be shocked."
"More than that~"
