Arceus’ Pirate Journey

Page 71

Compared to the Whitebeard Pirates, legendary pirates like the Hiku Pirates still lack a lot of foundation, but they are also a force that cannot be ignored.

They had naturally heard of the name of the Beasts, but they did not expect that the Beasts Pirates were actually in Wano Country. If it were other countries, it would not be uncommon to encounter pirates in their country, and it would even be very common.

But this is the closed country of Wano. Even Raizo, who has never been abroad, knows the name of the Hundred Beasts Pirates, which shows how long the Hundred Beasts Pirates have stayed here.

It is impossible for pirates to stay in a country for a long time for no reason. The happening of this situation in Wano Country can only mean one thing, that is, this place is regarded as their territory by the Beasts Pirates.

For Oden’s retainers, Kozuki Oden is the one who will definitely inherit the position of Shogun of Wano Country, so the behavior of the Beasts Pirates is undoubtedly hostile to Kozuki Oden.

“Setsuna, are you really joining the Beasts Pirates?”

Inuarashi did not see the pirate flag logo on her, so he still had some hope. These retainers of Oden had a kind of blind loyalty in their minds.

According to the original timeline, Inuarashi and Cat Viper could directly give the throne to Carrot after Teacher Gai was dismissed. In their opinion, the lord’s country is far more important than their own country.

As for the problem of the logo, it is caused by information asymmetry. The identity of the Beasts Pirates is not only represented by the skull flag that symbolizes Kaido, but the logo of Arceus Thousand Arms also has the same meaning.

Suddenly, Zeraora and Sha Yinna’s clothes had the logo of the Thousand Universe Wrist Pattern on them.

Similar situations do exist. The Whitebeard Pirates often use a cross with a crescent moon to symbolize the identity of the Whitebeard Pirates. However, it is very rare for two patterns to symbolize two people, like the Hundred Beasts.

Inuarashi, who didn’t know the Beasts Pirates, hoped that this was a misunderstanding, but he was disappointed.

“Yeah, it’s been almost five years, probably just a few months after I left Zuowu.

After you two sneaked out, Duke Yang Jisihan got really angry, and it took me two years to find an opportunity to sneak out, and then…”

“Have you forgotten the alliance between Zuowu and Wano Country?!”

She originally wanted to tell the two about her experiences in the past two years, but was interrupted by Cat Viper.

“You’re still so annoying, you stinky cat. It’s not a good habit to interrupt others when they are talking.”

It can’t be said that her relationship with Nekomaru was bad in the past, but the two often quarreled, and Inuarashi was usually the peacemaker.

But as soon as they met, he spoke to her in this tone, as if she had made some big mistake, which made her feel very unhappy, so she just retorted.

“If you’re talking about the so-called ancient covenant, what does it matter if you know it?”

“What do you think? Meow… We have an alliance with the Kozuki family. If you join them in looting here, you are destroying the alliance!”

“First of all, I remember that it was an alliance between the Furry Principality and Wano Country, not an alliance between individuals. Secondly, after we came here, we were here to develop this place, not to plunder!

Don’t put the blame on me right away!”

Most of the residents of Zuowu have heard of this covenant, but the impact of a covenant between countries on individuals is limited, and many people in Zuowu only regard this covenant as a legend.

One was in seclusion, and the other was on the back of a giant elephant and had little contact with the outside world. There had been no contact between Zuowu and Wano Country for hundreds of years, so Setsuna didn’t take it too seriously.

She was very upset by Cat Viper’s attitude of treating it as an imperial decree and condemning her from a moral high ground.

The joy of the reunion was almost dissipated in an instant, and both sides even wanted to fight, but as usual, they were stopped by Inuarashi.

“That’s enough for you two!”

“It was this stinky cat who started the trouble first.”

“Who told you to join the Beast Pirates?”

“Do I need to report to you where I’m going? Do you think you’re the Duke of Zuowu? Duke Yangjisihan won’t interfere with other people’s decisions even if he’s here!”

The two were about to start arguing again, but they were interrupted by Mitsuki Toki’s cough. She had returned home due to illness and had not yet fully recovered. She felt a little uncomfortable after being blown in the sea breeze for so long.

“Inuarashi, Nekomaru, let’s take the Madam and the Young Master and Young Miss back first.”

Because Setsuna was also a member of the Beasts Pirates, Oden’s retainers had nothing to say to her, and they surrounded Kozuki and left.

In order to let Kozuki Oden concentrate on doing what he wanted to do, Toki was actually holding on. At this time, his brain was dizzy from the burn, so he did not stop what was happening here.

Faced with their own kind and companions, Inuarashi and Nekomaru chose their companions. They had already left, and it would not be convenient for the two of them to stay here any longer. If they continued to stay, Setsuna and Nekomaru might fight.

“Sorry, Setsuna, let’s talk about it another day.” With that, Inuarashi also pulled Cat Viper away.

……

In the evening, Shanna returned to Taoyuan Farm in a depressed mood. She was originally very happy to see her two former friends, but ended up being very angry.

After all, this farm is in Kyuri, and it would be a bit worrying if we don’t put someone guarding it. Babanuki and Manderfesh are also outstanding among ordinary cadres, and not every member of the Beasts Pirates in Wano Country is at that level.

Babanuki is now guarding the mining site, and Manderfesh is still exploring the underwater ruins, so the farm is handed over to Zeraora, and he can also understand the situation of Miltank in time, as the language of Pokémon is universal.

Zeraora moved here and Setsuna naturally followed. When Setsuna returned here, Zeraora had just finished today’s training.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t you meet two acquaintances? Why didn’t you bring them here? Are they having a quarrel?”

“A little bit… Cat Viper is really unreasonable. Cat fur is the most annoying creature… Ah, no, I’m not talking about you, Zeraora, I’m talking about that stinky cat Cat Viper…”

Cat Viper’s words made her so angry that she forgot that Zeraora was also a cat. After explaining, she ran back to her room and took out her diary.

[XNUM X Year X NUM X Month X NUM X Day

It’s all Cat Viper’s fault. He made me look bad in front of Zeraora. I’ll remember this grudge…】

Chapter 174 Mom?!

[It’s all Cat Viper’s fault. If that guy hadn’t pissed me off, I wouldn’t have said the wrong thing. They’re both cat fur, so why is there such a big difference? ]

A cat with a round ball-like tongue that is very afraid of heat, and an impulsive personality who would quarrel with her at any time.

A man who is handsome, powerful, and takes good care of her in all aspects. In contrast, Cat Viper’s reputation in Setsuna plummeted.

She didn’t remember clearly what happened before she was two years old, but from the age of three to five she was mostly playing with Inuarashi and Nekomaru. When she was five years old, Nekomaru and Inuarashi secretly left Zuowu.

She left Zuowu when she was seven years old, and was unfortunately captured. She was then rescued by Shayna. To date, she has lived in the Beasts Pirates for almost five years.

If you think about it carefully, she actually spent more time with Zeraora.

[It would be okay for him to learn from Inuarashi. Really, neither Yangjisi Khan nor my dad said that to me. Who does he think he is…] When she wrote this, she couldn’t help but think of Zuo Wu, and then she realized that she had forgotten a very crucial thing.

She went to see Inuarashi and Nekomaru partly because she saw an acquaintance, and partly because she wanted to ask them for a life card.

The size of the life card does not affect its use. Just a small piece is enough to guide her to Zuo Wu, but after being stimulated by the cat-viper, she forgot all the important matters.

[It’s all the fault of that bastard Cat Viper!]

! ]

At the end of the diary, she drew a rough draft of a cat viper on the diary, and then put a big cross on it, as if venting her inner anger in this way.

Then she turned off the lights and lay on the bed, covering her head with the quilt, wondering what she was thinking about.

There is indeed no electricity in Wano Country, but for Quinn, it is a very simple matter to build a generator and lay a few circuits. However, the generator here on the farm is a bit special. In addition to solar power generation, it can also generate electricity through human power.

The generator is in Zeraora’s house. His daily training method is to ride a bicycle to exercise his physical strength. At the same time, he will connect the generator wires to his body to charge himself.

It’s good for him to have some electricity when he has nothing to do.

Not far away in Oden Castle, Denjiro also returned to Kuri. He now runs around Wano Country during the day, basically doing three things: borrowing money, repaying money, and making money.

The incident involving Kin’emon had drained their savings, and now they were basically relying on the support of Shimotsuki Yasuie to make a living, but they couldn’t not pay back the money.

It is only natural to pay back debts. They already owe too much to Shimotsuki Yasushi. Among everyone, Denjiro is the best at this, so all these tasks are placed on him.

Moreover, after losing Taoyuan Farm, he was the one who had to figure out how to provide food, clothing, housing and transportation for the people in Oden Castle.

He was also very happy that Inuarashi and Nekomaru had returned, and he was even happier that his lord had a wife and children. However, despite his excitement, he also had to face the fact that there were five more mouths to feed at home.

Not counting the children, the two fur tribe members, Cat Viper and Inuarashi, are both big-bellied men.

Now that I think about it, Ashura Douji’s Toushan Bandits’ Gang seems to be a good place to go. At least in Toushan they can be self-sufficient and have no shortage of food and drink.

Looking at Inuarashi and Cat Viper, Denjiro suddenly had some strange ideas.

At the same time, they also knew why Kin’emon did not go to greet Oden. He suffered a series of tortures, and even a physique as strong as Kin’emon could not fully recover. He has just shown some improvement.

“Were these all done by the Beasts Pirates?”

“Yes, but not entirely. Last time, Kin’emon was too impulsive and had a conflict with the Beasts for his former younger brother. As a result…”

Now that things have been said, the result is very clear.

“Is there any conflict between Setsuna and you guys?”

“moment?”

“That’s the fur tribe from the daytime. She used to be our friend. We grew up together in Zuowu. I didn’t expect to see her here.”

Compared to Cat Viper, Inuarashi is calmer and more rational. He is more worried about the relationship between Setsuna and them. If there is hatred between them, it will be very uncomfortable for them to be caught in the middle.

After all, a choice will have to be made at that time. Based on his understanding of Setsuna, things she has made up her mind will not be easily changed.

“There is no direct contradiction, and the residents of Jiuli seem to have a very good opinion of her.”

“Kawamatsu, she’s also a member of the Beasts Pirates!”

“I’m just telling the truth. Although she’s from the Beasts, the residents of the farm say that she’s easy to get along with and the children aren’t afraid of her.”

“But she is still a pirate, and she is also connected to Kurozumi Orochi. Don’t forget, those people were brought into Wano Country by that guy Kurozumi Orochi.”

Speaking of Kurozumi Orochi, Kanjuro even had a feeling of gritting his teeth. He was able to bring the character into the role to this extent, and he was also a very outstanding talent in the undercover industry.

After listening to his companions’ comments, Cat Viper seemed to have some different ideas.

But on Ghost Island, a strange thing happened at this time.

Yamato is already over two years old. An ordinary child can speak fluently at the age of two, not to mention the people here. Yamato is definitely not behind in physical development.

The milk from Milcan and the eggs from Chandler are both extremely nutritious foods. They also inherited Kaido’s bloodline. Even Jack, who has fish-man blood, may not be able to compare with her.

But today, when she addressed Arceus, she used a word that he couldn’t accept.

“Hey, Yamato, tell me, who told you to call me mom.”

Yamato actually doesn’t have many good days left, because according to Kaido’s plan, in less than a year, she will have to receive training from Kaido, and during this time someone will also teach her some writing and the like.

Shayna, Naqin, and Olga, their knowledge is enough to teach a two-year-old child.

But the problem is, for some reason, Yamato no longer called him godfather or stepfather, but mother.

“Kaido is the father.”

“That’s right, what next?”

“The stepfather and my father have a very good relationship, and the teacher said that the pronunciation of でもね is used by girls, so the stepfather is a girl, and the woman who has a very close relationship with my father, isn’t she my mother…”

“Huh… Yamato, it’s good to draw inferences from one example, but don’t use it in this kind of place next time. Remember, I’m not your mother, and I’m not a woman.”

He now knows where the problem lies. He taught himself the language by watching anime. Self-taught people will result in many details being unclear.

Coupled with the type of animation dramas he watched in the past, a consequence is that many of his habitual speaking habits are pronunciations that only women use.

Kaido doesn’t care about such details, and even if Shayna and the others found out, they would not have the audacity to ask this question, which led to today’s misunderstanding.

Chapter 175: The mother in the pirate world is always a mystery (except BIG MOM)

“So… who is my mother?”

Compared to the small issue of the name, this question is a little more difficult to answer. After all, Kaido is very tight-lipped about this. Even when he was drunk, he never mentioned who Yamato’s biological mother is.

Calling him mom was just an accident caused by his tongue habit, but asking him to answer who her biological mother was was really putting Arceus in a difficult position.

“Maria has Aunt Riko to keep her company…Do I have no mother?”

“How is that possible? Your mother just couldn’t be with you because of something. You can ask Kaido for details when you grow up.”

This is a question that only the biological father can answer, and there is nothing he can do.

“Besides, even if your mother is not around, we are here to accompany you. Look at Jack, he doesn’t even know who his parents are, but he is still fine.”

Although Jack did not inherit Kaido’s bloodline like Yamato, the fish-man blood has made him stronger and stronger, and now he has started swimming in the water.

For the merfolk, swimming is easier than walking, which means that Manderfesh now has a little follower by his side. Although he can’t help much, he has someone who can talk in the dark deep sea.

Otherwise it would be boring to explore in such a place every day.

Children are only interested in a few things for a short time, so after hearing what Arceus said, she stopped worrying about this issue.

Afterwards, he was taken back by the four Chansey eggs to play. If the language of Chansey eggs can be considered a foreign language, then Yamato today can be said to have roughly mastered a foreign language.

The language of Pokémon is universal, but that is only for Pokémon. Like Den Den Mushi, they can understand the special wavelengths in it. Only those few Pokémon can understand Yamato’s Chansey language.

But there is no need for that, after all, Pokémon can understand human language, and the benefit of this peculiar language is that it allows her to better understand Chansey’s words.

She has grown very fast recently and is already over one meter tall. I’m afraid that in another year or two, the Jigglypuffs won’t be able to hug her, especially Jack, as the merman’s body size has made him almost as tall as the Jigglypuffs.
