One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 28 The Banquet and the Two People Leaving

An hour later, Dressrosa's five sailing ships arrived at the Iron Islands. With the cooperation of the old helmsman and the old crew, the five ships passed the pass safely and successfully entered the main island.

When the ship docked and the steps were set up, King Riku was the first to rush off the ship, grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground, and tears filled his eyes. He was 57 years old this year. The Iron Islands were taken away when he was seven years old. His father, the previous generation King Riku, had always talked about taking them back, but the country was in turmoil at the time and they were powerless. Until his father died, he kept talking about taking back the Iron Islands.

Now, he succeeded. Although he didn't get it back 100%, but at least Dressrosa would not continue to decline. His country was saved, and those citizens were saved. There would be no more children living on the streets, and no more hungry people. It was great, great.

Looking at Lily and Kaido approaching, King Riku threw away the dirt on his hands, walked quickly to the two of them, held Kaido's hand tightly, and kept thanking them. This made Kaido, who was always shameless, a little embarrassed. He actually agreed to King Riku's deal in order to develop his own strength, but he didn't expect to be thanked by King Riku so much.

Soon after, teams of people got off the ship. Some old miners who could still walk shed tears as they looked at the land beneath their feet. They were all miners who worked here in the past. They had all experienced the prosperity of Dressrosa at that time. They understood that the current decline was not to blame on King Riku. He was a good king, but he was powerless. Unexpectedly, one day the king summoned them and the Iron Islands were taken back. For a while, the names of Kaido and Lily were mentioned repeatedly by them. In the eyes of this group of people, the two were real heroes.

In front of everyone, King Riku reiterated the deal with Kaido and Lily, and proposed a plan for further alliance to the two, but this was rejected by the two. They suggested maintaining the status quo first, and it would not be too late to form an alliance after everyone cooperated for a period of time and got to know each other better. Riku calmed down and nodded, agreeing with the two's opinions.

After that, a banquet began. This was the norm in this world. Banquets were the best thing in the world. No matter if you were a pirate or a navy, a commoner or a noble, there was no better way to celebrate than attending a banquet.

Barrels of wine were brought down from the ship, and the chefs began to set up large pots to cook. Some people who had gone to explore the mineral veins also came back with some good news. The island had not been mined on a large scale in recent years, and the group of pirates who occupied it were incapable. In addition, the collapse of several mineral veins had been cleared, which should have been done by the group of people just now. As long as they were reinforced, they could start work.

This news brought the banquet to a climax. Everyone was singing, dancing, drinking and eating. Even King Riku took off his heavy crown and cumbersome coat, and ran to the campfire to dance for everyone. Although his dancing was not good, no one cared about it. How could they boo at such a happy occasion?
After a while, someone else went up to dance, one after another, even Kaido went up and danced twice. Just when he was about to take out the Eight Precepts for everyone to dance, he was dragged down by Lily's horn. Lily knew that Kaido was indeed drunk this time, and Kaido was not angry at all when he was dragged down. Instead, he urged Lily to sing a song. When Lily was in the army, her singing was first-class. When everyone was sailing to the battle, they relied on Lily's singing to entertain themselves.

Lily had no choice but to clear her throat and start singing to the beat of Kaido. Her singing was melodious, coupled with the relaxing lyrics, and everyone was fascinated by it unconsciously. Even after Lily finished singing, they did not wake up until a smoker burned his mouth with the cigarette and his cry interrupted the silence. Then everyone reacted and started to applaud collectively.

Everyone present drank until late at night, and began to fall drunk one by one, leaning against each other and falling asleep. Kaido was already lying on the ground, snoring loudly.

Lily looked at the drunk people, sighed helplessly, put out the bonfire and cleaned up the garbage around, then she contentedly hugged Zhizhi and leaned on Kaido and fell asleep.

Everyone woke up at noon the next day. Fortunately, the Iron Islands have a tropical climate, and everyone would not catch a cold after sleeping outside all night. The next day, Kaido, Lily, and King Riku, led by the old miners, thoroughly inspected the entire Iron Islands. When they found that there were not enough houses on the island, King Riku promised that he would go back to recruit workers for construction. The money would be his, and he would build houses that were suitable for Kaido and Lily's height.

So, King Liku took the fleet back that afternoon, and early the next morning, he returned to the island with two ships of workers and began busily building houses.

Looking at the people working on the construction, Kaido and Lily told King Riku that they were going out for a while and hoped that King Riku could help look after the defense of the island.

King Riku immediately said that there was no problem. As long as the two of them were away for no more than two months, King Riku was confident that the Iron Islands would not be taken away.

The two men did not take King Riku's assurance seriously. If they encountered a big pirate, numbers would be useless. The two of them could easily wipe out the pirates on the entire island. However, King Riku's words were enough, and they were not going to never come back. However, this made the two men think of a problem at the same time: it was time to recruit younger brothers.

After bidding farewell to Queen Riku, Kaido transformed into a blue dragon again and flew up with Lily on his back.

"Kaido, do you know where Charlotte Linlin is?" Lily asked as she sat on top of Kaido's head. "Yes, I have her life card here. Judging from the frequency of vibrations, she should not be too far away from us. We should be able to reach her within five days."

"That's fine. I'll take a nap. If we take turns flying, we should be able to arrive earlier." After saying that, Lily leaned back and lay on Kaido.

Dolanlala Island, oh, it should be renamed now, it should be Cake Island. The nearly 30-year-old "aunt" Charlotte Lingling planted the pirate flag on the castle.

This was the first territory conquered by her pirate group, and also the first step towards her dream of building a world of nations. Looking at her children standing below, Big Mom once again fell into her fantasy called home and took out the photo of Sister Carmela from her chest.

"Sister, do you see it? A kingdom where all children can be happy is about to be established." The aunt said softly.

Then, the aunt put the nun's photo on the low wall, looked at the people standing below, raised her arms and shouted.

"Today! The World of Nations is established!"

As Big Mom spoke, cheers were heard from below, but strangely, many of Big Mom's children did not cheer, such as Perospero and Katakuri.

Just as everyone was cheering, a strange laugh was heard along with thunder.

"Uh-huh-huh-huh, it seems I'm here just in time." Before he finished speaking, Kaido's huge dragon head popped out from the clouds. For a moment, all the members of Big Mom's pirate group were on alert. Katakuri held the earth dragon tightly in his hand. He was very impressed by this uncle who was only eleven years older than him. That iconic laugh was definitely not wrong. It was said that his mother gave him a devil fruit. It seemed that this was it. Dragon? It's not easy to deal with.

"Hmmm, Kaido, you actually come here, what's the matter?" Big Mom laughed at Kaido's huge dragon head. Although Katakuri and the others didn't know, it was not the first time that Big Mom saw Kaido like this. It's just that Kaido, who had just eaten the fruit, was not so big at that time.

"Well, I do have something to talk to you about, but I didn't expect that you would be holding a ceremony right there. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early." Kaido still maintained the blue dragon form and talked to Big Mom.

"Well, well, well, well, what a coincidence. Since you're here, Kaido, let's have a party together." Big Mom has always regarded Kaido as her younger brother. In fact, she has always been worried about this brother who suddenly disappeared in the Battle of God Valley. At this time, Big Mom did not have the intelligence network that she later had, so it was naturally impossible for her to know Kaido's news casually. Now seeing Kaido's appearance, Big Mom is very happy to issue an invitation.

"Well, I'm so lucky these two days. There are banquets wherever I go." Kaido said as he began to lower his altitude. Seeing Kaido's attitude, the Charlotte family, who knew that they couldn't fight, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Although they firmly believed that Kaido was no match for their mother, it was still good that they didn't fight.

But just as Kaido was landing, Big Mom spotted Lily sitting cross-legged on top of Kaido.

"Kaido, who is that woman?"
