Chapitre 134: Chapter 134: You're Still Young, Not Adults Yet, Stay Out of This
"Th-The Sun and Moon Pirates?!"
The pirates stationed on Onigashima stared in terror as the Sun and Moon Pirates entered the bay through the main gate.
Thousands of pirates stood frozen, not daring to speak or even breathe loudly. Their blood felt like ice.
"We're doomed... Lord Kaido isn't here..."
"What are we supposed to do now? Run?"
This group of Beast Pirates had only one thought upon seeing the Sun and Moon Pirates: run, and run fast.
Ninety percent of their fighting strength wasn't here.
They had no confidence in standing up to the Sun and Moon Pirates.
"What?! The Sun and Moon Pirates are here?!" Jack's pupils widened.
"Lord Jack, we need to run! We can think about fighting them once Lord Kaido returns."
"Yes, let's retreat!"
A powerful aura erupted from Jack. "Are you kidding me? Do you know who I am? We're heading straight for them!"
Jack, the one who feared nothing.
With a fierce attitude, he led a group of terrified pirates toward the port.
"Kaido's lair... not bad."
"They really did a good job setting this place up."
Shakky and her companions strolled through Onigashima, as if they were sightseeing, admiring the surroundings.
The pirates in the distance were petrified. To them, these were true monsters.
"Kaido's main force isn't even here?"
Morgans, the News King, who had also come to Onigashima, found the situation incomprehensible.
The Sun and Moon Pirates had publicly announced they were "visiting" the Beast Pirates in Wano.
This news had already spread across the seas.
How could Kaido not know? So why wasn't he home?
Morgans felt a twinge of regret.
Without Kaido present, the long-awaited clash of the Four Emperors wouldn't happen today, and there'd be no headline-making story for him.
"Wait a minute..."
Morgans' eyes suddenly brightened.
"Kaido's main force isn't here? Why not? Are they scared, did they run away... Yeah, that must be it." Morgans slapped his thigh in excitement.
"Boss, no way. Kaido, scared? Wasn't he the one who started all this?"
"If he's not at home, he must be scared." Morgans didn't care what the actual reason was.
He knew.
If he reported it that way, it would make for a sensational scoop.
"But boss, if we do this, we'll offend Emperor Kaido. That could be serious trouble for us later," his subordinate tried to reason with him.
"What's there to fear? Worst case scenario, we relocate our headquarters."
The News King Morgans had no fear.
He'd offend anyone if it meant reporting the most shocking news.
"Publish it immediately—Sea Emperor Kaido is terrified, abandoned his lair, and fled. The Sun and Moon Pirates are now the new rulers of Wano!"
...
Kuke and his crew stepped off the Radiant Eclipse.
They casually strolled through Onigashima.
"Kuke, Kaido's not here. Are we really just going to wait around?" Gion asked.
"Let's recruit some people first, then decide if we wait or not."
Coming to Onigashima.
The primary goal was recruitment.
"Recruit people? New members?" Everyone looked at Kuke, curious.
Could it be that the Beast Pirates had someone Kuke had set his sights on?
"The Beast Pirates have only one famous female pirate... almost an adult now, and already one of the Flying Six—Black Maria, with a bounty of 280 million."
Shakky quickly mentioned the only prominent female pirate left in the Beast Pirates.
"Black Maria... She's alright," Kuke nodded in approval.
He was interested in Black Maria, too.
"But she's not the main target. It's Yamato."
Yamato held a significant place in Kuke's plans.
In the original timeline, Yamato displayed incredible combat skills and talent.
Despite being imprisoned for years, with her hands bound, she managed to grow into a powerhouse on par with a vice-emperor. Her talent was unquestionable.
"Yamato?"
Shakky and the others were even more puzzled.
They had never heard of that name.
No one in the Beast Pirates, not even with a bit of notoriety, was named Yamato.
"Yamato, the daughter of Kaido."
"Kaido has a daughter?!"
"The daughter of one of the Four Emperors, Kaido?!"
Gion and the others were visibly shocked.
There had been no rumors at all about Kaido having a daughter.
If there had been even a whisper, the daughter of an Emperor of the Sea would have already become known across the oceans.
"I told you, our Captain knows everything, and he's capable of anything. Wherever there's a beautiful woma—" Before Belo Betty could finish, Kuke quickly covered her mouth.
"Enough, quiet."
"But Captain, Yamato is Kaido's daughter. How could she possibly join us?" Shakky frowned.
She was probably Kaido's only daughter.
Definitely a cherished treasure.
She'd rather die than defect.
"If I can convince her to come with us willingly, what then?" Kuke looked at them.
Kuke wasn't completely confident about everyone else.
But Yamato…
It would only take one line.
"If you can do it, then you can do whatever you want," Gion replied, doubtful. She had known Kuke since childhood and was hardly ever apart from him.
She was confident.
Kuke had never been to Wano, nor had he met Yamato.
Yamato was the daughter of Kaido.
Her father was also an Emperor of the Sea, with a reputation no less significant than Kuke's.
Gion couldn't think of any reason why Kaido's daughter would betray the Beast Pirates and join the Sun and Moon Pirates.
Using force could only coerce her, but it wouldn't win her loyalty.
Everyone looked at Gion's confidence.
Since the person who knew the Captain best believed so, they had no more doubts.
"If the Captain can do it, then he can do anything he wants," Hancock said eagerly.
"You all stay out of this," Kuke flicked his finger at the eager Kuina and Koala.
"You're still young, not even adults yet."
"Captain, you're being mean!" Koala pouted, holding her forehead in a show of mock complaint.
"...Alright, you said it yourselves. I didn't force you." Kuke cast a confident glance at the women.
Under their watchful eyes…
Facing Onigashima: "Yamato, come out!"
His voice surged like a shockwave, sweeping across the entire island in an instant. Winds howled, and the palace-like structures trembled.
Jack, who had been charging forward fiercely…
Stopped dead in his tracks.
The subordinates behind him burst into tears, terrified.
Deep within Onigashima, Yamato, who was wandering around…
Suddenly heard the voice.
Someone calling me? Without thinking, the impulsive Yamato dashed toward the voice.
The echoes were still fading.
"Who's calling me?"
A figure burst through a wall, rushing out.
Wearing a Hannya mask, wielding a Kanabo, her curvy figure barely concealed by her loose kimono.
She landed heavily on the ground.
Her curious eyes scanned the surroundings.
Who?
Who was it?
"Pretty strong," Shakky and the others said, eyeing Yamato with interest.
Judging by her jump and the force with which she landed, she seemed quite powerful.
"She has the same Kanabo weapon as Kaido and horns like a demon. She must be Kaido's daughter," Shakky concluded.
Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Kuke in admiration.
He truly was all-knowing.
So mysterious—she couldn't tell how many secrets the Captain still kept.
Once again, Shakky sighed. During her short time with the Sun and Moon Pirates, she had been more astonished than she ever had been in the Rocks Pirates.
"Go ahead, Kuke. I don't believe you can convince Kaido's daughter with just one line. If you fail, next time, you follow my orders and stay put." Gion shot Kuke a challenging look.
She had found an opportunity to get one over on him.
"If I succeed, does that mean the Captain has to marry me?" Hancock blushed, daydreaming.
Nico Robin seemed lost in her thoughts as well.
Her cheeks were a bit flushed.
"If I win, I want the Captain to order all crew members to live as freely as I do, liberated from all restrictions," Belo Betty said, glancing at her tightly fastened zipper.
She felt uncomfortable.
She really wanted to chase away any outsiders and regain her freedom.
She cupped her heavy burden.
It was tiring.
"Who are you?" Yamato finally noticed Kuke.
A stranger.
He didn't look like one of the pirates.
"Did you come from outside?" The slow-witted Yamato paused for a moment before running up to Kuke excitedly.
"Can I join you and sail the seas? Please take me with you!"
Gion, Hancock, and the others: "...?!"
