The three sisters listened with great interest, then asked Ron what those outfits looked like.
Ron pulled out a pen and quickly sketched out some design blueprints.
As soon as they saw them, the two sisters were instantly inspired.
In less than half an hour, they had whipped up a JK uniform!
Hancock immediately tried it on, then turned to Ron with a sweet smile. "Ron-sama, how do I look?"
"Hmph! This Empress will not wear JK outfits for just anyone to see," Sandersonia pouted. "This Empress will only show them to Ron-sama."
Fair skin, perfect proportions, a devilish figure with eye-popping impact!
Too strong! Too powerful!
"Excellent. You're all incredibly talented! Keep going like this!"
Ron didn't need to say much. He didn't even need to keep teaching them.
As long as he distributed smartphones to the entire population of Amazon Lily and had everyone making videos for him, churning out waves of high-quality content, he didn't believe those Marines and pirates wouldn't get addicted!
…
The next day
Morgans, bored out of his mind, casually picked up his smartphone and opened the selfie camera out of habit.
He faced the mirror and started striking what he thought were "handsome" poses. Sometimes he pouted to look cute. Sometimes he threw up a peace sign. Other times he went for a deep, contemplative expression.
On the screen, his face was captured from every angle, each one radiating confidence.
After taking over a hundred selfies, he finally exited the camera app. Looking at the screen filled with "handsome" photos, the corners of his beak curled upward, and he quietly felt proud.
Then, he started watching TikTok videos again.
The content had become more diverse than ever. There were tons of clips made by himself and his World Economy News employees.
But as he was scrolling, one particular video caught his eye. His eyes lit up instantly.
On-screen, a stunning woman in a stylish bikini appeared on a golden beach.
The floral embellishments on the bikini sparkled in the sunlight. While they barely covered the essentials, they accentuated her flawless figure.
With a sweet smile, she walked toward the camera with light, graceful steps—as if she was about to step out of the screen and straight into his heart.
"My goodness, where did this kid Ron go?!" Morgans shouted. "How did he find such a group of high-quality beauties to shoot videos?! Is this Amazon Lily? Is this the driving force he mentioned?!"
While marveling, he quickly tapped the like button, his fingers gliding across the screen like lightning. He dropped three red hearts in the comments and hit follow without hesitation.
Then, he scrolled to the next clip.
Another video played, this time starring a green-haired beauty.
Unlike the previous one, this video had a full 360-degree camera rotation with no blind spots, letting Morgans fully appreciate the visual feast.
Then suddenly,
The screen flashed, and the green-haired beauty's outfit transformed on the spot.
The cute, skimpy top instantly became a flowery dress, making her look like a fresh, charming girl next door. The vibe completely changed.
"Incredible! Is that a Devil Fruit ability? She can even change outfits?!" Morgans' eyes nearly popped out of his head.
Back then, Ron had briefly explained some of TikTok's features, but he'd been too obsessed with the camera to care.
Now, after actually seeing it for himself, he realized how much he'd missed out on.
Morgans zoomed in for a closer look and quickly recognized her.
"Tsk tsk tsk… That's Sandersonia, one of the Snake Sisters. She always goes around in beast form, like me. Never thought she was this pretty underneath. Hehehe."
He was teasing, but the admiration in his eyes was real.
Without hesitation, he followed her too.
And just like that,
Morgans was hooked. One video after another, he scrolled like a madman.
His fingers flew across the screen. His eyes stayed glued to the display, not daring to blink in case he missed something juicy.
Then, he reached a certain video.
As soon as it started playing, his hand froze. His entire body stiffened.
It was her.
The Empress.
Boa Hancock.
Standing there. Elegant. Noble. Radiant.
Her Mero Mero no Mi ability seemed to radiate straight through the screen, making her aura even more divine.
Just her standing there felt like a spell. A beauty capable of making the world fall in love.
Morgans' pupils turned into sparkly hearts. His mouth curved up in pure adoration. His expression said it all—nothing else mattered now.
He entered full simp mode, spamming the like button with unholy speed.
Then,
He pounded out a comment with blazing fingers: "Empress Hancock, forever goddess!!!"
At this point, the entire universe could disappear. He only had eyes for the Empress.
This trance-like state continued until one of his subordinates nervously came to report on work.
Only then did Morgans snap out of it, reluctantly putting down his phone.
He glanced at the time.
It was already 7 p.m.!
"Damn it, I just watched videos for a bit… how did it get dark already?!"
Well, since things had already gone this far, might as well eat.
Soon, a table of delicious food was served.
Morgans sat down and started scarfing it down in giant bites, all while still watching TikTok.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "This phone is just too practical. No need to swap out film, pixel clarity is next level."
"The zoom feature, you just drag two fingers… It's basically a telescope!"
"Oh man, if I ran this in the paper…"
The more he talked, the more hyped he got. His eyes sparkled.
But halfway through his sentence, he suddenly froze.
He looked at the phone in his hand.
Then he looked at his own reflection in the mirror.
He looked like a total idiot!
"Damn it, I'm a total idiot!" He slapped his forehead hard and shouted, "This smartphone—this thing is big news!!!"
"There was once a truly massive scoop right in front of me, and I didn't treasure it. Now that I've realized it, I deeply regret it.
Morgans was so pumped he nearly jumped out of his seat.
He had seen dozens of videos now, and his favorite was still the women from Amazon Lily. Every one of them was beautiful and had such charming voices.
Without wasting a second, Morgans summoned all his employees.
He was about to write the biggest story of his life.
A scoop that would shake the entire world.
And he, along with the World Economy News, would be right at the center of the storm.
