Chapitre 609: Fishman Priest, Yamato's Ship
The difference between Minks and humans is quite significant. After one month, these two children revealed their lively and restless side. Moreover their stamina far exceeded that of human infants, which was also partly due to Arceus' blessing.
Moreover, Minks have a shorter growth period than humans, and it is a tradition to let them move around freely after one month.
All Minks born on Zou Island began playing in the forests of Zou Island at a very young age. Through playing, their bodies get exercised and gradually grow stronger, which is why Minks of the Zou Island have always been a warrior race.
Furthermore, from the Minks' perspective, although children are precious, they don't need such meticulous care after they are a month old, which is also why Setsuna felt comfortable letting Perona look after the children.
Besides her, the two children were also accompanied by Bewear and Bepo. Although Bepo's current combat ability is negligible, the combination of Hollow and Bewear's punches is something that few people can withstand.
It's like taking a full-force hit from Bewear without any defense.
Also, this place is the stronghold of the Beasts Pirates, with a very high safety factor, so this arrangement is enough.
Zeraora initially thought they should be even more careful, but Hachi and Rin reassured him, saying that Setsuna and Wanda were also raised this way.
With the father-in-law, mother-in-law, wife, and sister-in-law all agreeing, Zeraora followed their arrangement.
Minks have beast-like appearances. If not careful, young Minks just a few months old could be misunderstood, like what has happened with Tiger. Even though Perona knew he didn't mean it, it still sounded unpleasant, so she used Hollow.
One must either have Haki strong enough to resist Hollow's effects, or have other bug-level abilities to counter Hollow, or be inherently very negative; otherwise, they can't handle Hollows.
Tiger didn't fit any of those categories, so he naturally ended up like this.
"I'm very sorry, I misspoke."
When the Hollow's effect ended, Tiger solemnly apologized to the two little Minks. There are two types of people who oppose racial discrimination: one type hopes everyone can live equally without discriminating against each other, while the other only opposes discrimination against themselves while discriminating against others. The latter are the most hateful and do not deserve sympathy.
Otohime and Tiger both belong to the former, although their methods are very different. Arlong, on the other hand, hovers on the edge.
Most of the time, he is in the latter category, and in very few cases, in the former. But now that Tiger is still alive, he has forcibly pulled Arlong back, making him undergo significant changes.
Knowing the pain of being discriminated against as a Fish-Man, Tiger realized his words were insulting. Seeing his sincere attitude, Perona decided not to hold a grudge and had Bewear carry her younger siblings as they left.
"Are they beastmen?"
"Minks live on Zou Island on the back of a giant elephant. In some ways, they are similar to your Fish-Men race, except you are marine creatures, while they are mammals."
"The parents of those two little ones are Minks' royalty. The girl, Perona, is a human girl adopted by the Minks."
"As you can see, the dream of coexistence has long been realized here. This is the most beautiful side; next, we will witness the 'evil' behind this beauty."
Afterward, Misu and Tiger left Kuri and headed to the outermost area - Udon Region. Not only weapon factories are here but also Wano Country's largest prison - the Udon Quarry.
"Most here are pirates who challenged the Beasts Pirates and lost, as well as some criminals. Depending on their offenses, they must atone for their sins through different forms of labor, using their strength to compensate for past mistakes."
"Nothing here is obtained through prayers but established through force. Without power, even the most beautiful dreams cannot be realized."
Their stay here was brief because there was nothing much to see here, as monotonous repetitive labor was dull even to watch.
Tiger stayed in Wano Country for a few more days. During this time, he witnessed the prosperity of Flower Capital, even conversed with Kawamatsu, and attended a few history lessons at the Flower Capital's school, gaining some understanding of past events.
During this period, he participated in a small festival in Wano Country and also personally engaged in various tasks. However, when Misu planned to take Tiger to Onigashima to meet Arceus, he refused.
"Are you sure you don't want to go? Our Lord is not as distant as you think, and He is a very easygoing person."
"No, Sister, you have organized the doctrines and spread the faith in Wano Country, while I have done nothing to contribute. How can I be qualified to meet our Lord?"
"I've decided; I've been depressed for too long and even forgot my original purpose. After all, I am an Adventurer..."
Tiger told Misu his plans to return to Fishman Island, form a new expedition team with Arlong and the others. It is not appropriate to stay holed up in Mandrell's amusement park built for Rusalka.
Like the Nox Expedition Team currently adventuring outside, he plans to join the teams searching for plates. As a Fish-Man, he has more advantages. Meanwhile, he also wants to return to Fishman Island to spread these values, contributing his part to an ideal future.
Being an action-oriented person, he didn't even wait for Mandrell after he had his own goal. Instead, he left with the Beasts Pirates' merchant ship heading to Sabaody Archipelago. Before departing, Misu even gave him quite a few things.
...
"Lord Sacred Beast, that Fish-Man has left. This is Sister Misu's evaluation of him; she believes Tiger has become a qualified priest and can spread the new faith."
Misu, although always a nun, is the only experienced religious figure within the Arceus Cult. Her authority within this religion is close to that of the previous pope, although she always insists she is just an ordinary nun.
In Misu's heart, Shayna's position is that of a "divine envoy," which is her ultimate goal. Her room was not only filled with art tools and books, but also with a lot of fitness equipment, gradually working towards a peculiar direction.
Arceus no longer cared much about these things. As long as they don't create any bizarre rules, he's content to let them handle things on their own.
"By the way, Lord Sacred Beast, Miss Yamato's ship has been completed. Miss Yamato has been eager to set sail, and she even named the ship: Yamato."
