STRAW HAT DECLARES WAR ON WORLD GOVERNMENT
Is the criminal mentally ill? A weakling who dares to challenge the supreme?"
Porchemy wants to warn the fools.
He wants to tell them not to underestimate the boy blindly, not to brush him off as though he is no threat.
(because he still remembers the time when there was a small, broken, body hanging from a rope in front of him—beaten, bruised, and bloody—crimson dripping from a spiked glove—
and that small, broken, boy has become a pirate— worth more than all of East Blue's criminals put together.)
(he is worth more than Bluejam ever could have dreamed to be)
But Porchemy can't warn them. Doesn't have any reason to warn them, really.
He is a former pirate himself, on the run (even though nobody is looking for him), and he can never amount to anything more.

So he crumples up the newspaper and tosses it to the ground.
