One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 18 Wanshou's Last Words
Two years later, it was the year 1486 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Lily is already 22 years old this year. Her height has been fixed at 5.5 meters. She has become relatively mature in the use of various domineering abilities, and has mastered the abilities of the devil fruit. It can be said that if Lily meets the major general at that time again, she has the confidence to subdue him within one move. However, this growth does not make Lily happy, because Manshou is dying.

During a training session last year, Wanshou suddenly sat down on the ground, covered in sweat, his face flushed, and gasping for breath. Lily hurriedly sent Wanshou home and wanted to find a doctor, but she remembered that the two best doctors in the whole of Angsa were Wanshou and herself.

Lily felt Wanshou's pulse in a panic. That kind of pulse was something Lily had never seen before. Just when Lily was sweating profusely, Wanshou, who had finally caught his breath, grabbed Lily's hand and forced her to relax. He asked Lily to feel his pulse again and whispered to Lily that this pulse was called a death pulse.

Ordinary people with this pulse condition usually don't live more than two hours, but because of his special situation, the awakened Pixiu fruit can allow him to last another year. At that time, Lily wanted to use the power of the Suzaku Fruit to replenish Wanshou's vitality, but was stopped by Wanshou. Wanshou's body was now like a leaky bucket. If he was ignored, the water would leak out slowly. If Lily added another bucket of water at this time, the broken bucket might fall in with the bottom, and the water would leak out even faster. Wanshou told Lily that this was the law of nature. He had lived for 245 years and had lived enough.

Wanshou has no giant bloodline. His longevity is entirely due to the vitality brought by the awakening of the Pixiu Fruit. The normal lifespan of a ghost is only 245 years. As an ordinary person, Wanshou has lived for years. This can no longer be described as a happy funeral, but Lily is still very sad. She has never seen her biological father, her adoptive father has died, and now even her master...

Lily touched the corner of her eyes. In the past year, Lily wanted to reduce training and spend more time with Wanshou, but Wanshou disagreed and scolded Lily severely.

Today is exactly one year since Wanshou fell ill. Lily did not go out today, and Wanshou's condition was not right. He was lying on the bed with a ruddy face and steady breathing. He seemed to be fine, but both people present knew what this was, it was a last gasp.

"Lily, how many years have I taught you?" Wanshou asked.

"Eight years. There are 77 days in eight years." Lily answered without any thought, while wiping Wanshou's arm with warm water.

"It's been eight years. Time flies. It feels like it just went by in the blink of an eye. You were just a little girl who knew nothing before, but now you have grown up and are taller than me."

“A 246-year-old also thinks eight years is fast?” Lily joked.

"Of course. 246 years passed quickly. It felt like it went by in a flash," Wanshou sat up with the help of Lily and took a sip of water from the cup on the bedside.

"I have accomplished nothing in my life and have caused a lot of trouble. Fortunately, the time has come for me to accept a good disciple like you."

"Master, don't say that. Just have a good rest. Everything will be fine." Lily advised in a low voice.

"No, there's no need to do this, Lily. We all know it, don't we? It won't be later than tomorrow. I want to finish what I want to say while I'm still sober and comfortable." Wanshou waved his hand stubbornly and looked at Zhizhi on the windowsill.

"Zhizhi, go dig that out for me." When Zhizhi heard Wanshou's words, he saluted, turned around and ran out of the house. Wanshou turned his gaze back to Lily.

"Lily, have I never told you about my life story?"

"No, I asked you once, and you didn't tell me." Lily sat on the floor with her hands on her legs.

"Really? Hey, I am a noble, a great noble at that," Wanshou made a face at Lily, "your master was the second prince of the Kingdom of Flowers, a legitimate royal family member, and was granted the title of King of Qin."

"Oh."

"You're not surprised at all?"

"I roughly guessed it. Although I have never been to the Kingdom of Flowers, the atlas you gave me contains an introduction to the Kingdom of Flowers. Combined with your clothing, fruit ability, and rhetoric, I can roughly guess that you are from the Kingdom of Flowers. Based on my knowledge, I guessed that you are a noble. Although I didn't expect you to be a royal family member, it's pretty close."

"Really? Really, I wanted to see your surprised expression." Wanshou curled his lips in disappointment.

"Then I should look like this? Wow! This is incredible!" Lily held her cheeks with both hands and made an extremely exaggerated expression.

"Stop, stop, stop. My goodness, you're making a weird expression." Wanshou covered his face with one hand, unable to bear to look at it.

"Look, Qiqi and Anna are more or less capable of doing this kind of thing. But I'm quite curious as to why someone like Master would leave his country and wander here."

“Well, this story starts a long time ago… (See the Character Biography: Wanshou Chapter for details)”. . . . . . . . . The dividing line of Wanshou’s storytelling…

"So what happened?" Lily asked.

"Later, I encountered many things, including shipwrecks, betrayal, pursuit by the World Government, pursuit by the Navy, and even pursuit by underground organizations. I only managed to save one of those devil fruits, which is the Suzaku Fruit that you ate." Compared to the detailed explanation just now, Wanshou's explanation now was extremely perfunctory.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" At this moment, Zhizhi ran in holding a cylinder. Wanshou touched Zhizhi's head and reached out to take the cylinder. Lily looked at the cylinder. There were obvious remnants of island clouds on it. It seemed that it was buried in the island clouds.

"Pop" Wanshou pulled out the plug, took out a roll of yellowed paper and handed it to Lily.

"This is the place where I lost my devil fruit, and the name of the devil fruit. I was being hunted before I came to Onsa, so I had no way to find it. I don't know what it looks like now. Although it may not be of much use, it is at least a clue. Go look for it if you have time."

Lily took the nautical chart and looked at it. She had never heard of the place on it, and no one knew whether she could find it. But at least it was a clue. Just as Lily was flipping through it, a piece of paper fell to the ground. Lily picked it up and saw that it was a wanted poster.

Subversive——Wanshou, bounty of 20 billion berries.

"Oh, the wanted poster. I miss it so much. It's something from 100 years ago." Wanshou said with emotion.

"100 billion 20 years ago, it seems that the world government is very worried about you, Master." Lily looked at Wanshou and smiled. In the eyes of the weak, this is a death warrant, but in the eyes of the strong, it is the best decoration.

"Yeah, but unfortunately they didn't raise the price later. Maybe it was because they saw that I failed to recruit people." Wanshou smiled, looking very proud.

"Okay, Master, you've given me all of these. So, what exactly do you want me to do?" Lily asked. She could guess that Wanshou must have something for her to do, and Wanshou had never concealed this fact.

"My business? It's easy to say, but it's also difficult to say," Wanshou stroked his beard, "First of all, I would like you to help send my ashes back to the Kingdom of Flowers. I still hope that my soul can return to my hometown."

"That's no problem. I would have done it even if you didn't tell me." Lily nodded.

"Then help me find these devil fruits. If you find any, you can keep them if you want. But if you find the Pixiu fruit that appeared after my death, I hope you can return it. The other fruits were stolen by me, and it's my fault if they were lost. But the Pixiu fruit was given to me by the temple, and I need to return it."

"I'll try my best." Lily nodded. The uncertainty of this kind of thing was too high, and she couldn't make any guarantees.

"Don't worry, don't worry, don't we still have Zhizhi? With the help of Zhizhi's power, you can accomplish many things. But I failed to awaken him, so it depends on you." Wanshou didn't want to put pressure on Lily, so he gave her a small reminder.

"The last point is," Wanshou suddenly paused.

"That's it?" Lily looked at Wanshou, and at this moment, Wanshou suddenly stood up, his face flushed, looking straight into Lily's eyes, and said solemnly, ""

“Rose Lily, go! Go and fulfill your dream! Pull down those high and mighty bastards, drag those guys who stand in the clouds and call themselves gods down to the ground, fulfill your dream, defeat those nobles, whether it’s for you, for me, or for the people, go and resist, subvert, and disrupt this world! Hahahaha, ahhahahahahahahahahaha!”

As he spoke, Wanshou burst into laughter, and the laughter reached the sky. It was so unrestrained and so free and easy.

Lily also stood up and bowed with her hands clasped together.

"Student, how dare you disobey my orders?"
