Gorosei Informer

As they hover above a barren wasteland that was once a bustling city, Redon, ScotchInformer, and Lance Dragonite, armed with their insatiable appetite for One Piece spoilers, find themselves in the midst of a most unlikely warzone.

"Alright, fellas," ScotchInformer calls from the cockpit of the chopper, his hands steady on the controls. "Fasten your seatbelts. This is about to get rough."

"Seatbelts?" Redon looks around the jostling interior of the chopper. "Did Oda-sensei ever include seatbelts in a One Piece chapter? I don't recall seeing those!"

Lance Dragonite, clutching onto his armrests, glances sideways at Redon, "That's not really the point right now, Redon."

They dive deeper into the chaos, their target: a seemingly innocuous building, rumored to contain the manuscript for the next One Piece chapter.

ScotchInformer maneuvers through a hailstorm of enemy fire, his poker face unflinching. "Just a little closer, guys," he shouts over the thunderous noise outside.

Suddenly, the helicopter tilts sideways, and Lance Dragonite's collection of One Piece figurines start to slide around.

"My babies!" he exclaims, desperately trying to save them. He holds onto the dancing Brook figure for dear life.

"Less about your collectibles, more about the actual mission, Lance!" ScotchInformer chides, skillfully steadying the chopper.

After what feels like an eternity, they finally reach the building. ScotchInformer brings the chopper to a rough landing on the roof.

Redon, equipped with a stethoscope he nicked from Chopper's medical kit, starts listening to the door to decipher the number of guards inside. Lance Dragonite, meanwhile, begins sketching a quick plan with his limited edition One Piece quill.

ScotchInformer watches them, shaking his head. "You guys are more dramatic than a Roger vs. Whitebeard clash."

"Drama is the soul of One Piece, Scotch!" Redon exclaims, still pressing his ear against the door. "Now, let's get that manuscript!"

And with that, they rush into the building, ready to brave the spoils of war for the spoiler of the next One Piece chapter. The chopper pilot shakes his head again, chuckling at the absurdity of it all. After all, in the face of spoilers, what's a warzone?

Same chin, same smile, same head shape, one is ashame of his head nut, both smoke:absojustice:
We haven't seen under Shiryu's hat either...

Maybe Usopp's observation haki will be key or tested vs Shiryu?

Shiryu's ancestor was framed and executed for something that wasn't his fault, labelled a traitor and liar. Shiryu now worked for the WG before, but executed some "innocent" guards without "meaning to" and apologised for it.

Idk where I'm going with this, I'm just crack theory shit posting lmao.

I've suspected Usopp could be a Montblanc and or a Marshall like Teach too though. If Shiryu turned out to be a Montblanc, that would be VERY surprising/unexpected and interesting.

I used ChatGPT to come up with a backstory for him in relation to Noland at least and thus why Shiryu worked for the WG in Impel Down and then why he joined Blackbeard too, on a personal reason/for his own agendas:

Before becoming a notorious jailer at Impel Down, Shiryu hailed from the distant lineage of the Montblanc family. His full name, unbeknownst to most, was Shiryu Montblanc.

His family once lived on Jaya, where they were related to Montblanc Noland, the great explorer. After the Knock-Up Stream catapulted half of Jaya into the sky, forming the Sky Island of Skypiea, Shiryu's ancestors remained on the Blue Sea. They carried the legacy of Noland, weaving his tales into family lore, while maintaining a sense of honor, courage, and thirst for exploration.

As a child, Shiryu was fascinated by the tales of his ancestor Noland, especially his unfortunate encounter with the World Government that led to his execution. This seeded a sense of resentment against the World Government in young Shiryu, but also instilled in him a strategic mind - he realized that to fight the system, he needed to understand it from within.

Shiryu joined the ranks of the World Government and was eventually appointed as the Head Jailer of Impel Down. Working from the inside, he had the opportunity to understand the darker side of the World Government, reinforcing his resentment. However, the brutality and ruthlessness of Impel Down gradually influenced him too, hardening his once noble heart.

When Blackbeard arrived in Impel Down, Shiryu saw a reflection of his ancestor's rebellious spirit in him. Shiryu admired how Teach, like Noland, refused to be bound by the World Government's rules. Moreover, he recognized the opportunity that joining the Blackbeard Pirates presented – a chance to challenge the system that he had come to detest.

Choosing to join Blackbeard was, for Shiryu, a decision rooted in his lineage, influenced by his time at Impel Down, and shaped by his desire to make a stand against the World Government. In joining forces with Teach, he saw a chance to honor his ancestor Noland, by becoming a part of a significant change in the world of One Piece. His story continues, interwoven with the legacies of the Montblanc family, the tales of Noland, and the path of the Blackbeard Pirates.
