One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 128 Goodbye Blake

Kaido was led by the security team to a tavern. The tavern was not big, with a few tables scattered inside. Because it was not dinner time, there were not many people and it seemed very deserted, but it gave Kaido an unusual sense of intimacy.

It looks very similar. This place looks so much like the canteen of the King's Army of the Woka Kingdom. Even the taste is similar. There can't be such a coincidence in the world.

Just as Kaido was standing at the door in a daze, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hello, are you here for dinner?"

Kaido turned around and saw a short woman, about two meters in height, who looked to be in her thirties. She was wearing a dark purple kimono and had her hair tied up. She was carrying a child on her back, but the child was quite large and it was very hard for the woman to carry him.

"Looking for someone, is Blake home?" Kaido tried to keep his voice as low as possible, fearing to scare the woman, but Kaido was obviously overthinking. When the woman saw Kaido's face, she was stunned, then she walked around Kaido and ran into the house excitedly, shouting as she ran:

"Anata, come out and take a look! This is the person you are looking for!"

Along with the woman's shout, there was a clanging sound from the kitchen, and the sound of pots and pans colliding. Then, a big man about four meters tall with blond hair and horns like Kaido ran out.

"Kaido!" "Black!"

The two of them instantly had tears in their eyes, and they hugged each other and kept patting each other's bodies.

"I was walking around the streets and I heard someone who looked like me, with blonde hair and the name Blake. I knew it was you! Ullallallallallallalla!"

Kaido let go of Black, and it was quite uncomfortable to bend over and hug him, but this did not hinder Kaido's inner excitement. He never expected that he could meet his hometown friends in such a remote place.

"Don't stand and talk, come in and sit down, come in and sit down."

Blake pulled Kaido inside, then ran into the inner room and took two large benches, while shouting to his wife:

"Riko! Put up the door. We won't have any guests today!"

"Okay!" Riko put the child behind her in the wicker cradle, walked to the door and inserted the wooden board next to her into the store door, and at the same time hung a sign saying "Temporarily closed" on the door.

"Come, try the wine I brewed. The wine here is too light, just like water."

Blake took out two large bowls, held a jar of wine and walked in front of Kaido. He knocked off the seal on the jar and poured a bowl for Kaido.

"Ha, not bad, not bad. Although not as good as Lily's, it's also good wine. You're right, the wine here is too light, just like water, woo woo woo woo."

Kaido raised the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then burped pleasantly, all the unhappiness caused by drinking "water" in the past two days was swept away.

"That's right, you don't know, I've been here for a few years, and when I first came here, I was so suffocated." Blake shook his head and said, "Yes, now that you mention it, I was going to ask you, why did you come here? Why don't you stay in the Kingdom of Woka?"

"Hey, don't mention it. You don't know. You and Lily suddenly disappeared. We were all very anxious, so we asked Doro where you two had gone. Doro always said that you had joined the navy. To be honest, we believed him at first, but one time Doro got drunk and cried while drinking, saying that he was sorry for you and sold you out. He also kept slapping himself. Only then did we realize that there was something else going on. The next day, when we sobered up, we asked Doro about it. Doro realized that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he told us the truth."

Blake filled their wine bowls, sighed, and sat back on the bench. Back in the King's Army, Kaido and Lily had the best relationship, followed by Dora, who seemed to be at odds with them, and then their comrades from the same clan and group. At that time, Kaido and Lily went to the King's Banquet and there was no news from them, which made people worried.

"What's next?" Kaido asked after drinking his drink again.

"Then the incident spread throughout the King's Army. Many people were very angry at the time. You don't know that at that time, captains like Dora received resignation letters every day, and some people left without saying a word. In short, the entire King's Army lost at least half of its people. I left at that time, along with several of my fellow tribesmen. Dora didn't leave, but we didn't blame Dora. After all, Dora had his own difficulties, which we understood. After that, we left the King's Army and did some small businesses outside to make a living. Until one day, we saw the news about you and Lily in the newspaper, and we decided to come find you. Then we sold everything we could, pooled some money, found a boat, and went out to sea."

"That's not right? Since you set out to sea a few years ago, you should have passed by me first. How come you suddenly bypassed so many places and went directly to Wano Country?" Kaido suddenly felt something was wrong and asked hurriedly.

"Listen to me. We were very excited to go out to sea, but we forgot to consider a very important issue. That is, we were not good at sailing. We were confused and ran around on the sea. We finally arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago, but we were almost targeted by slave traders. Anyway, we ran around all the way and it took a lot of effort to reach the New World. We encountered a big storm. We didn't believe it when we heard that the weather in the New World was very terrible, but reality taught us a hard lesson. Our ship was hit by the storm, and the huge sea tornado directly rolled our ship into the sky. I tried my best to I grabbed a big box, hoping to have a grip, but then something hit me from behind my head and I fainted. When I woke up, I was already in Wano Country. It was Riko who saved me. You may know the rules here. I couldn't get out, but fortunately, the box I was holding at the time contained some jewels we found on the road. I used those jewels to redeem Riko, and with the remaining money I bought this store. Relying on my cooking skills in the King's Army, I have settled down. Now, I have a child, Black Maria, who was born in September two years ago. She is very cute."

Blake didn't mention anything about his companions, and Kaido tacitly didn't ask. The probability of surviving a shipwreck in this ocean is too small.

Black brought his daughter to Kaido. The little girl, who was less than two years old, had some baby fat, and the two small horns on her head had just emerged, making her look like a newborn calf.

"Very cute, but I still feel that my Yamato is better. Even though he cries a little, he's definitely energetic!" Kaido teased Maria gently with his fingers twice, and then said with a proud look on his face.

"Wait? You have a child? With Lily?" Blake was stunned and asked hurriedly.

"Well, it happened in November last year. Oh, by the way, Maria is half-demon, right? How long does it take for pregnancy to take?" Kaido nodded, and then thought of another question.

"Thirteen months, longer than a normal person, but shorter than a pure-blooded vampire. Lily is 20 months, I think. But I never thought you two would be together. Haven't you always called each other brother and sister?"

"Hey, let's not talk about the past. Anyway, you just need to know that it succeeded by accident. Oh, by the way, Lily has gone back to pick someone up. She should be here in a few days. I'll bring Lily to see you then. Lily said before that she couldn't make the honey-glazed barbecue like you did."

"Okay, that's great. Come, I'll let you taste it today. It just so happens that the kid next door got some wild honey from the mountain and came to me to sell it for money. You're in for a treat today. Wait!"

Blake slapped his thigh, jumped up from the chair and ran to the kitchen in a hurry. People here eat with small plates and bowls, and no one has appreciated his best honey barbecue. Now it can finally be put to good use.

Riko was wiping the table with a rag and smiled at her husband's excitement. Ever since she met Blake, she knew that he had something in his heart. After she got married, she heard him talk about it and found out that he had such a knot in his heart. Riko often saw him staring at the tattered photo album, which contained Blake's memories of many years. Finally, today, there was no more heaviness in Blake's smile.
