Since Sanji will be joining us later in the series, let's give him something to work with in that direction: he can hear that the common folk, including his... hosts... are increasingly consumed by worries over how quickly things are changing and Senate leader Caius Justus' prolonged absence. News shouters are less present in the marketplaces these days, but the few who do the rounds have been mentioning the wretchedness of this strange, foreign creature Messalina and asked the good people why is it that Ephes should concede her their army, only for her to run her wars with it, and then give them the scraps of won territories? Surely, Ephes can find a general and win these provinces itself! Perhaps Caius Justus is right to delay in his answer, yes, assuredly. After all, he is a righteous man, and this is no righteous proposition, the news shouters all say so.
