"World Destroyer"—this was the title held by Byrnndi World, wielded with the power of his Devil Fruit ability, the More-More Fruit. Like Shiki, he had been gradually forgotten by the world, frozen in Eternal Hell within Impel Down, as the "World Destroyer" of the previous era faded from mory.
Now, Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters reclaid that title, unused for over twenty years, and placed it upon El's bounty poster.
Because Byrnndi World had a bounty of less than one billion before his capture by CP agents and the Navy, El, as the new Float-Float Fruit user, was deed more fitting for the title of "World Destroyer."
Through the World Economic News headline, the entire world saw the cover photo of the super-teorite, the devastating super-tsunami, and the two islands it had obliterated.
According to the verification of "Big News" Morgans, the super-teorite was the creation of the World Destroyer, El.
The super-tsunami generated by the teorite destroyed the Prodence Kingdom—relatively close to the Kingdom of Dressrosa—rely by scraping its edge. Only through King Elizabello II's intervention, using his signature "King Punch" to resist the tsunami, was the Prodence Kingdom spared from being mostly destroyed or even entirely subrged.
Those directly in the super-tsunami's path—specifically the two islands that stood before it—were not so fortunate. Even as the base camps of two major New World pirate crews, their islands and strongholds were wiped clean by the colossal wave.
Pirates in the New World with bounties in the hundreds of millions were no different from ordinary people facing such a cataclysm.
Perhaps a handful of strong individuals survived by luck, but all their years of hard work in the New World were erased in an instant.
According to Morgans' statistics, the death toll from this super-tsunami reached hundreds of thousands.
When Mary Geoise, Navy Headquarters, and the major powers of the New World saw the information published by Big News Morgans—and after receiving Doflamingo's confirmation that Dressrosa had only narrowly escaped—the whole world fell silent.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters raised El's threat level to the highest tier. His bounty skyrocketed by 2 billion overnight, reaching a level second only to the Three Emperors of the Sea.
At that mont, every major power with a large population or a fixed base camp felt a profound fear toward El, who had been in the New World for only a week yet now stood at the world's summit.
Just like Whitebeard, El was now regarded as an existence not to be provoked.
Even Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters, who wished to eliminate him, dared not move against El without absolute confidence.
Through the super-teorite and super-tsunami, the knowledgeable and literate across the world saw that El's developnt of the Float-Float Fruit had surpassed its previous user. This strategic-level capability might have limited effect on top-tier fighters, but it was a dinsional blow against the weak.
If El were still as vulnerable as three years ago, Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters' first move would have been to issue a Buster Call against him, just as they had against Byrnndi World—those who could "destroy the world" were to be purged outright.
However, El now possessed the Float-Float Fruit, alongside the girls wielding the Fla-Fla Fruit, Rumble-Rumble Fruit, and the Munch-Munch Fruit's fusion ability. Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters dared not act rashly, because the "Flying Pirates" were now the world's most troubleso pirate group to eradicate. Should an attempt fail, the retaliation would be falling islands, super-teorites, and super-tsunamis that even Kuzan's Ice-Ice Fruit could not fully freeze.
Without question, El's threat level had reached that of Whitebeard. If not for his individual strength being insufficient and his fleet not yet expanded, Mary Geoise and Navy Headquarters would have raised his bounty to 4 billion Belly—equal to the Three Emperors.
Yet, even without raising El's bounty to Emperor level, Morgans seized upon the world's fear of El's power and used his pen to officially disrupt the New World's balance.
"The Fourth Emperor Who Rules the Sky is Born!"
The next day, Morgans wrote a headline full of sensationalism, ensuring that day's sales would be the year's highest. This news, brimming with hyperbole, was not rejected by the people—instead, countless voices agreed with Morgans' declaration.
Although the World Destroyer El commanded no thousands of troops, the super-teorite that created a tsunami capable of destroying two islands made him more than qualified.
The death toll from the super-tsunami—hundreds of thousands of pirates and civilians—proved it. A person wielding such power, if not qualified to be called an Emperor of the Sea, then who was?
