"Poseidon is a mermaid princess who appears only once every eight hundred years. She can communicate with Sea Kings and order them however she wants to. It is said that it's an immense power capable of saving countless lives or destroying the whole world. When this mermaid princess awakens her power, a man will come to guide her wield this power."
Giotto immediately shared what he knew and added, "The poneglyphs on Skypiea mentioned this. Although I have never gone to the final island, Laugh Tale, I saw many poneglyphs during my time in Captain Roger's crew."
He couldn't just admit that he watched the anime, right?
Besides, Roger indeed had the ability to hear the voices of all things and knew the truth about the Void Century, so using that as an excuse definitely made sense.
"Now that you know about this, do you have any idea what should we do, Lord Vongola Primo? Honestly, I think you would be the best guide for Shirahoshi. I believe that Vongola Family can protect her, and she does need a strong guardian given her personality. And I believe Vongola Family might need Poseidon's power of Poseidon, which manifests in Shirahoshi, in the future."
Queen Otohime intended to entrust Shirahoshi to Giotto. In her opinion, this was the best choice, and Vongola Family was trustworthy.
However, Giotto shook his head at this moment. He had no intention of relying on Ancient Weapon. To him, those ancient weapons were ultimately a power that didn't belong to him, and to make his family stronger, he needed a power he could call his own. Moreover, he had several capable scientists on his side, especially Verde.
Although Verde was currently focused on developing the Guardians' Box Weapons now, he could get creative once he finished making the Box Weapons. With his abilities, even in this era, he could undoubtedly create weapons that were not inferior to the Ancient Weapons. That's why Giotto didn't care about Poseidon, Pluton, or Uranus.
Among the three ancient weapons, the one that truly concerned him was Uranus, which was likely in the World Government's possession.
In his opinion, the reason the World Government could defeat Great Kingdom that once ruled the world for eight hundred years was very likely because they possessed Uranus. To be precise, this power was held by the owner of the Empty Throne, Im.
Poseidon could control the Sea Kings, and Pluton could obliterate an island with a single shot, but what about Uranus? Regardless of what sort of power Uranus provided, it was undeniably superior to that of Poseidon and Pluton.
"Shirahoshi should live a normal life; Vongola Family has no intention of ruining others' lives for the sake of power. Furthermore, Shirahoshi's guide in the future is not me. If she chooses to become a member of Vongola Family in the future, I can guide her, but it will not be because you to entrust her to me. It has to be her own decision!"
Giotto quickly gave his answer, and this response didn't surprise Queen Otohime. If Giotto accepted, he wouldn't be the famous Vongola Primo.
Queen Otohime bowed to Giotto and then spoke earnestly, "I'll gladly take you up on your offer then. If Shirahoshi decides to join Vongola Family out of her own volition in the future, please do not refuse, Lord Vongola Primo."
"Don't worry, if it's her decision, Vongola Family will welcome her."
Giotto smiled and added, "Well, let's set this aside for now. My trip this time is for a honeymoon, and while in this occasion, I prefer to be just Giotto than the leader of Vongola Family. After all, this time is precious for us."
He planned to spend quality time with Alia, which was why he had left everything in G and Shoichi Irie's hands. He wanted to spend his honeymoon in peace.
Meanwhile, G and Shoichi Irie on Secon Island both sneezed at the sneeze and began to complain...
In the next few days, Giotto and Aria enjoyed their time on Fish-Man Island, even making a short visit to the Mermaid Café. There, they met the fortune-teller Shyarly, who had previously warned Giotto about his impending 'death.' It had to be said that Shyarly had grown into an elegant and beautiful mermaid. However...
With Aria by his side, Giotto couldn't afford to look at her too much.
Interestingly, Alia and Shyarly had become good friends. When Giotto saw Shyarly, he also remembered Arlong, who was probably causing havoc in East Blue now.
Regarding the hardship that Cocoyasi Village and Nami would face, Giotto couldn't help but feel sympathy, but he wasn't a saint who could save the world. If he happened to pass through the East Blue, he might lend a hand, but there was no need to specifically rush to help Nami. After all, if he traveled all the way to the East Blue for one woman..., he might have to sleep in his training room once they got back to Secon Island. Besides, this world's protagonist would set out to sea in a few years!
Once that happened, this vast sea would undergo significant changes again, and the tide of the times would advance at an astonishing pace. Luffy would change so many things that Giotto couldn't help but wondered what interesting events would unfold in the future. After all, Luffy's voyage would influence a lot of people. His father was the leader of the Revolutionary Army, his grandfather was the Marine Hero, and while Ace was not Whitebeard Pirates' crew yet, he would likely become one. The most important thing was his other brother, Sabo, was now a member of Vongola Family...
Furthermore, he was basically guaranteed to become the External Advisor Vice Leader!
It seemed that Giotto would be swept up in the tide of the times!
