Chapitre 687: That year, he had eggnog on his waist and didn't know what an opponent was.
Queen furtively appeared on Onigashima, worried about being caught by Kaido and getting roped into some extra training.
"Queen? What are you sneaking around for?"
Kaido indeed didn't, but Shayna did as her voice sounded from behind him.
"You've been saying Mr. Kaido's been giving you a tough time lately. Are you itching for more?"
"Shh! Madam, please have mercy on this old man. First, it was Miss Yamato, then it's Boss Kaido. I've had enough."
In this situation, Queen made a quick decision and chose to give in. Compared to King, Shayna was much harsher when it came to beating him up, and she actually would take action, unlike King, who mostly just bickered.
"What are you doing here? Lord Sacred Beast hasn't called for you recently, has he?"
She had just returned from seeing King, mainly to deliver Lily Carnation seeds to him. Some of those seeds haven't sprouted yet and you need a special technique to use them.
Lunarians were once a widely spread race, but now their numbers were nearly extinct. In Shayna's knowledge, other than King, there were no others of their kind left.
Lunarians also faced a challenge in passing down their knowledge. During their exile, they learned to fight and also acquired specialized knowledge. To ensure that as much knowledge as possible was passed down, they each focused on learning different things, with the person most skilled in a particular area taking the lead in studying it.
In the field of plants, Shayna's talent was higher than King's, so only she knew the exact method to cultivate Lily Carnations. She had just spent some time teaching King the ritual and stood guard for him for a while.
This wasn't Omatsuri Island; it was surrounded by uninhabited areas. In Wano Country, certain things needed to be done carefully.
"Can't I have a reason to see Lord Arceus?"
"Has Acier's research made any breakthroughs?"
"No…"
"Did you discover something of great value?"
"Uh… no…"
"Then why are you here? To make trouble?"
"I'm here for help! If this keeps up, Boss Kaido is going to drive me crazy sooner or later. By the way, according to what Boss Kaido's been saying lately, he plans to look for you and Zeraora next for some practice."
"King and I can no longer meet his demands for strength."
"…"
Queen continued walking forward as he spoke. Shayna didn't stop him. Even she didn't want to get tangled up with Kaido over something like this.
Queen continued walking on his path of saving himself scientifically. When science reaches the pinnacle, it becomes theology. For Queen, he was still walking on the unique path of science. [It means using science to save yourself when you are in trouble like during various types of disasters.]
...
"So that's the situation, Lord Arceus. What exactly is in those eggs? You should know, right?"
Queen recounted the recent events and explained his purpose, mainly to figure out what made Blissey's eggs so special.
"Of course I know, but you won't be able to replicate it."
Blissey's eggs weren't just eggs; they were a combination of energy and nutrients within Blissey's body, a miraculous substance made of Pokémon energy, much like releasing moves.
When nutrients are abundant, Blissey's eggs regenerate faster. In battles, they can frequently use the Soft-Boiled move, converting their stamina into similar objects.
Arceus could help Blissey replenish its stamina so that it could produce more eggs, but he couldn't help Queen break down its components.
"But haven't you ever heard of eggnog?"
"Eggnog? You can make alcohol from eggs? Is this some kind of home remedy from a distant sea?"
Pirates who don't drink are rare. Even if they don't drink, they usually have some knowledge of alcohol. But Queen had never heard of making eggnog before.
However, it's not exactly brewed but rather mixed. By combining eggs, rum, whiskey, milk, and sugar, you can make eggnog.
Compared to alcohol, it's more like a sweet beverage, but it's enough to solve the problem. Kaido just needs a hint of alcohol to enter that Drunken Dragon Bagua state, and since whiskey and rum are strong liquors, adjusting the proportions can easily create the right drink.
"As expected of Lord Arceus, you even know about this. I guess I'm saved... right?"
...
Queen didn't achieve his original goal but found a solution from a different angle. In the end, he received a modified recipe for eggnog from Arceus.
The regular liquors were still whiskey and rum, but the regular milk was replaced by Miltank's milk, chicken eggs were replaced by Blissey's eggs, and the sugar was replaced by Sweet Herba Mystica, creating an entirely new beverage.
Due to the recipe's improvements, this eggnog had an extremely long shelf life. Because of its powerful effects, this recipe was not made available for sale.
Miltank's milk didn't make much difference, but Blissey's eggs and the Herba Mystica were another matter.
Blissey's eggs not only can make one feel happy and helped Kaido find that strange sensation, but they also restored stamina. The Herba Mystica were also not ordinary.
They were not ordinary spices but plants that grew in special areas with unique flavors, allowing Pokémon to draw power from them. In the Paldea Region, Pokémon lucky enough to find these Herba Mystica become exceptional.
Because the herbs granted them great power, they were called Titan Pokémon, tough to defeat by ordinary people. Consuming the Herba Mystica could instantly heal injuries, restore stamina, and boost strength—a powerful stimulant with no side effects.
...
"Boss Kaido! Look at this. With this, you can perfectly solve that problem."
Queen realized that Kaido had two essential items: the Hassaikai and the sake gourd. Carrying an egg around wasn't practical, but replacing it with eggnog was no problem.
So this time, he proactively sought out Kaido, hoping to "forever eliminate future troubles."
"Its recipe has been provided by Lord Arceus. Using this, you can enter that state."
Kaido took the gourd that Queen handed him and tried it out, and sure enough, he immediately found that wonderful state.
"Worororo, that's the feeling. It really kills two birds with one stone…"
"As long as you're satisfied, that's all that matters. In that case, I'll be on my way."
Queen planned to research his bananas next. The Sweet Herba Mystica seemed to pair well with his Tropius' bananas, but as he was about to leave, the ground in front of him suddenly cracked open, blocking his path. Looking back, he saw that the crack had formed exactly where Hassaikai had landed.
"Boss Kaido..."
"I was originally going to look for Shayna and Zeraora, but since you've come to me, I might as well help you with some extra training."
"?!"
