The live stream continued.
After hearing Captain Luffy's request, Ron smiled and shook his head: "Captain Luffy, as long as you persevere, everyone will achieve their dreams, and I believe you are no exception."
"Hehehehe, you're a pretty good guy, old man." Luffy looked at Ron with a grin.
He always returned the same respect to those who respected others' dreams.
Then, Ron thought for a moment and said, "So, Captain Luffy, have you ever thought about becoming a TikTok influencer?"
"TikTok influencer? What's that? Is it delicious?" Luffy scratched his head, looking confused.
"..." Ron was petrified; this guy really thought about eating all the time.
He patiently explained: "A TikTok influencer is a general term for users who specialize in posting a certain type of video. Your dream is to become the Pirate King, so you can try to become a TikTok influencer who pursues dreams."
"TikTok influencers are experts in a certain type of video, using their influence to inspire and motivate others," Ron continued.
"That's right, I'm the man who's going to be the Pirate King, so I can do TikTok influencer stuff too!" Luffy's eyes were firm, then he looked at Ron with some confusion, "So how do I become a TikTok influencer?"
Ron smiled: "It's simple, you can film your journey to becoming the Pirate King and post it on TikTok. The spirit of pursuing dreams, the deeds of moving forward day and night for the sake of a dream, will surely inspire and redeem many people."
"Hahahahaha, you speak so well, old man." Luffy put on his Straw Hat, his eyes even firmer, "Old man, this is our agreement, I'm definitely going to be a TikTok influencer!"
Nami was also incredibly moved, her eyes full of little stars.
Mr. Producer was truly wonderful; his voice was pleasant, his words insightful, and his advice perfectly suited them.
So, would they become popular in the future? Once popular, they could set up a yellow cart and earn lots and lots of Belli? The kind where they'd count money until their hands cramped!
The others were equally full of anticipation.
Usopp was already fantasizing about becoming a big influencer with eight thousand fans!
Sanji even fantasized about having many beautiful female fans, with beauties chasing him every day to taste his delicious food; just thinking about it was like heaven!
Even Zoro couldn't help but narrow his eyes upon hearing this. If it were truly possible, he wanted to watch and learn others' swordsmanship and blade techniques on TikTok to become the World's Greatest Swordsman!
Nami's eyes had turned into little money signs, and then she couldn't help but look at the live stream and interject: "Hello, Mr. Producer, I'm Nami, the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates. Can you help us name our dream-chasing journey?"
Luffy also nodded: "Old man, help me think of an awesome name, I want the whole world to know!"
Hmm?
Ron was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting the other party to make such a request.
As for a name, it was too simple!
In his previous life, their experiences had already been drawn into manga and made into anime.
But Ron still pretended to think for a while, finally as if a light bulb went off: "That's right, let's call it 'Pirate King'! Pursue your dream, and become the Pirate King all the way!"
Upon hearing this name, Luffy's eyes lit up, very excited, and he held his phone, laughing non-stop: "Good, good, this name is good, it's called 'Pirate King'!"
The other members of the Straw Hat Crew were also very satisfied.
The path to fame of pursuing the Pirate King, interesting!
The call ended here; all guidance had been given.
"Then, Captain Luffy, this call ends here. If you have any questions later, you can always follow the videos I post. I'll often share some filming tips," Ron said.
"Ah, old man, this... so fast?" Luffy was startled for a moment but still nodded.
The video call was disconnected.
The live stream was already filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, the atmosphere extremely tense.
Some people were even clamoring to set off immediately and take down the Straw Hat Pirates.
"What a damn kid, does he think being a pirate is playing house? Damn it, I'm going to deal with him right now!"
"Straw Hat, don't you run, I, Smoker, will definitely catch you and throw you in prison! Let's see who can save you this time!"
"Hahaha... I didn't expect this kid to have been targeted by the Marine already!"
"The one who's going to be the Pirate King is me, Gekko Moriah! You wretched fellows, wait for my zombie army to flatten your ship!"
"Interesting, a Shichibukai? Does even a Shichibukai want to be a pirate now?"
"Bah! Aren't they just pirates? And they're also lapdogs of the World Government!"
The live stream was in chaos, with various bullet comments scrolling rapidly, as if a big battle was about to break out at any moment.
Ron didn't expect the atmosphere in the live stream to be so intense. This way, the Straw Hat Pirates had directly entered hell mode.
However, for Luffy, who had the protagonist's halo, perhaps he could truly turn danger into safety.
Ron didn't pay attention to these bullet comments and was about to go offline when suddenly a blue, tree-shaped mini-airship shot up from the bottom of the live stream screen. At the same time, everyone watching the live stream saw a special line of yellow text:
[Wapol, King of Drum Kingdom, sent TikTok No. 1 * 1]
"???"
Ron was stunned for a moment, secretly thinking: Holy crap, they can learn to send gifts without being taught?
The audience in the live stream was also stunned. There's this function?
What was that flashy thing just now? It flashed and then disappeared.
"Thank you, Wapol, for the TikTok No. 1 gift. Actually, everyone doesn't need to spend money. This live stream is for public welfare, just to let everyone understand the future filming path and master more filming techniques."
Then Ron explained the questions in the live stream: "The special effect just now was a gift effect. When a user is live streaming, everyone can send gifts to their favorite streamer, and the value of the gifts varies."
Only then did everyone understand, and then they saw that TikTok No. 1 actually cost 100,000 Belli!
One hundred thousand Belli!
Who is so rich?
Just then, a sunglasses effect popped up, covering Ron's eyes, lasting a few seconds before disappearing.
The same special text appeared:
[Nojiko sent Sunglasses * 2]
Then, Nojiko's bullet comment appeared in the live stream: "Thank you, Mr. Producer. When I make money, I'll send you big gifts."
Ron waved his hand in response: "It's just a small favor. I also hope the TikTok environment gets better and better, and the quality of videos everyone produces gets higher and higher."
But then a bullet comment made Ron's mouth twitch:
"Hello, Producer, I'm Wapol. I just clicked the wrong thing. I didn't mean to send a gift, Ben Hema, Ben Hema! Mr. Producer, can you return the gift to me? Or refund me some money, half is fine..."
Before Ron could speak, others who were watching the show had already gone crazy with laughter:
"Serves you right, who told you to show off like that? Damn, that feels good!"
"Are you broke? And you call yourself a king? A king can't even come up with 100,000 Belli?"
"It looks fake. I thought it was some rich king just now, and I was going to follow, but now I'm unfollowing."
