One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 341 Extra: Spring Festival Special (XII)
When Lily came out with Hiyori, she saw Yamato and Violet arguing with each other, saying that they must be the first to find the devil fruit. Lily, who was just outside the door, was confused. She asked Scarlett, who looked helpless, and found out the whole story. She was a little embarrassed, but she didn't discourage the enthusiasm of these children. After all, competition among peers is a very good way to enhance strength. Didn't she and Kaido also compete all the way to get to the top? This is how the two strongest warriors were created.

Lily turned around and asked them to wait for a moment. She went back to the warehouse, took out the barrier fruit, handed it to Violet, and said:

"It's up to you to decide whether or not to eat it. You only have one chance."

After Lily finished speaking, she blinked her eyes. Her meaning was very clear. This time, Scarlett really didn't know how to refuse. After all, from the moment she was moved by Yamato's words, Scarlett could no longer think of a reason to refuse. Thoughts are like this, like a dam. When the first crack appears, collapse is only a matter of time. There is absolutely no possibility of survival.

Just like that, Lily returned to the square with her four children and three devil fruits in her arms. At this time, Quinn was already singing happily on the stage, and the people of Wano Country also gave face and cheered for Quinn crazily. Although this song was very different from the traditional songs of Wano Country, this magical melody was indeed attractive, and in this lively atmosphere, this kind of song was indeed more suitable.

And among the cheering crowd, there was a person who was out of tune with the atmosphere and was looking around as if he was looking for someone.

"Where did Hiyori-sama go?"

This person was none other than Kikunosuke, one of the Nine Red Scabbards who had been thrown into the mines for forced labor. This time, as a model of reform, he was allowed to visit Onigashima for the New Year, but he needed to be monitored and his movements restricted. However, this was the opportunity that Kikunosuke had been longing for, and he had no objection to it. He just wanted to see Hiyori's situation. After all, in their hearts, they were still not sure about what the Beasts were doing. Even though the fact that Hiyori was adopted by Kaido and Lily was already known to everyone in Wano Country, and those criminals who were later caught told them, they still couldn't believe it was true. They could only see it with their own eyes. Kikunosuke came here with this purpose.

But because she was the last group of people to arrive here, Hiyori had already followed Lily to the warehouse at that time, and the two sides happened to separate, so Kikunojo didn't see anyone. He only saw Quinn singing and dancing on the stage, with the layers of hair on his body flying wildly, as if he was trying to shake out the fat.

"Are you looking for Miss Hiyori?"

A voice came from behind the somewhat anxious Kikunojo. Kikunojo hurriedly turned around to look. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil and he couldn't even use his Observation Haki. He could only confirm with his eyes. When he turned around, he instantly confirmed the other person's identity. The lazy look instantly matched the information in his mind from that year.

"Shasliva Luke!"

Kikunosuke shouted nervously. Although he had never fought with the people from the Twelve Hours, he was clear about Kawamatsu's strength. Kawamatsu said that he was no match for the Twelve Hours. The man in front of him was one of the Twelve Hours. Now without a weapon in his hand, he was definitely no match.

"Yes, you called the right name. No need to be so loud. I'm not deaf, and you don't need to be so nervous. No one here wants to hurt you. Of course, if you want to hurt others, that's another matter. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. Are you looking around for Miss Hiyori?"

Luke lazily dug his ear with his little finger, then blew on it and said that he was not worried at all. He could think of everything that Kikunojo could think of. They also discovered now that the strength of these warriors dropped alarmingly after losing their weapons. Some of them even couldn't fight without their weapons. She didn't know if Kikunojo in front of her was the same, but a drop in strength was certain, so Luke was naturally not worried.

"Are you the one who's in charge of watching me?"

Kikunosuke was filled with nervousness, or rather, he was already caught up in his inner speculations and had already justified himself in his mind, not paying any attention to what Luke said.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? I just asked you if you were looking for Miss Hiyori. What are you thinking about? Are all of you so imaginative?"

Luke was a little speechless. He just happened to pass by and saw Kikunojo looking around. He was ready to go forward to help. After all, this guy was born in the lower class according to the intelligence of the beasts. After becoming a samurai, he did not do anything to oppress the people. If he had not followed Kozuki Oden and became an enemy of the beasts, he should have been one of the liberated ones. As for whether Kikunojo would have any trouble looking for Hiyori? Don't make a fuss. He saw Hiyori leave with Lily. If this guy could have kidnapped Hiyori in front of Lily, they would not have lost so badly.

"Aren't you the one who's watching me?"

After being scolded by Luke, Kikunojo understood a little bit. He seemed to be overly sentimental, and asked uncertainly. "No, the people who are monitoring you are over there. You can't escape from Onigashima anyway. Those two guys went to eat a long time ago. I just saw you looking for someone to help you."

Luke curled his lips and pointed to the other side. Following the direction Luke pointed, Kikunojo saw two guys holding various foods in their hands and eating heartily. They glanced over here from time to time, and when they saw nothing was wrong, they turned back and continued to eat and drink. It was obvious that they were not very wary of Kikunojo.

"I'm so sorry, I was rude. Indeed, I was looking for Hiyori-sama. I heard a man who was imprisoned for theft in the mine say that Hiyori-sama was adopted by Mr. Kaido and Mrs. Lily. I would like to take this opportunity to confirm it."

Kikunojo blushed as he saluted Luke and then told him his story. It had come to this point and it was meaningless to keep it secret. As for why he called Kaido "Sir" and Lily "Madam", it was very simple. Although Kikunojo was a bit stubborn, he was not a fool who knew nothing. In the opponent's territory, he must use respectful titles. The opponent did not kill him after defeating him, so based on this point, the respectful titles of Mr. and Madam were not an exaggeration.

"Ah, it's up to you to figure out when to go. Don't look for it anymore. Let's go have a drink. I just saw Sister Lily and Miss Yamato leave. Wait here for a while. They should be back soon."

Luke casually grabbed two bottles of wine from the table next to him, threw one of them to Kikunojo, then bit open the cap of the other bottle, raised the glass to Kikunojo, and then tilted his head back to take a few sips.

"Thank you."

Kikunojo usually doesn't drink, but in the current situation, he can only believe what Luke says. It is really not appropriate for him to look for someone like this. What if he runs to some forbidden place and causes trouble for no reason? So he gritted his teeth, opened the bottle cap, thanked Luke, and took a sip.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, what is this! Cough, cough, cough."

Kikunojo, who had only drunk sake, drank such a strong liquor for the first time. He immediately felt his entire mouth burning, and even his throat felt a burning pain. If he hadn't seen that the bottle in his hand was the same as the one in Luke's hand, Kikunojo might have felt that the other party was going to poison him to death.

"Ala, it seems like you are not used to this. Forget it, drink this. Don't waste this wine."

Luke looked at the wine sprayed on the ground by Kikunojo with heartache, then picked up a glass of champagne from the table next to him and handed it to Kikunojo, and then took the bottle of soju back from Kikunojo's hand.

"This isn't even a bar! Ahem, ahem, how can there be such spicy wine!"

Kikunosuke quickly gulped down the entire glass of champagne with his face flushed, and this time he felt a little better and spoke.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. This is my treasured wine, brewed by Sister Lily herself. Do you know how much effort I put into these bottles?"

Luke glanced at Kikunojo and was convinced that he was just like Xia Ji, unable to appreciate the beauty of wine.
