Chapter 10 It's OK if It's Caesar

Yamato's change of attitude was beyond Caesar's expectations.

He originally thought that with Yamato's stubborn personality and his years of admiration for Oden, it would take at least several years for him to gradually correct his behavior.

Caesar originally wanted to take her to the Revolutionary Army's territory when he had the chance, so that Yamato could understand what class struggle is, and then criticize the feudal system of Wano Country.

As a result, this girl actually awakened herself!

The proposal that Caesar just gave to Kaido, on the one hand, is to facilitate the future occupation of Wano Country, and on the other hand, it is to force Yamato to make a choice between the Kozuki clan and the people of Wano Country.

Is the Kozuki clan the orthodox clan of Wano Country?
Are you kidding? If the people don’t recognize you, how can you be considered orthodox?
In the original work, the Kozuki clan is almost tied to the people of Wano Country, which also gives them the reputation of being righteous.

What Caesar has to do is to completely separate the two, so that the already weak Kozuki will lose her last support!
This is Kaido's bad point. He turns a blind eye to the crisis and looks down on everyone. He is too rude and too arrogant.

It’s not that this guy doesn’t understand some things, but that he doesn’t care!
He was too superstitious about his own strength. Although he was indeed strong enough, unfortunately he was not strong enough to completely overcome everything.

If Caesar had not used wealth and the development of the pirate group as bargaining chips, given Kaido's personality, he would not care about the lives of the people.

But Caesar would not make such a mistake!

In Caesar's opinion, the education he once received might be his greatest advantage as a time traveler.

Foreigners don't understand the concept of cutting the weeds at their roots, don't understand the Thirty-Six Stratagems, don't understand how a single spark can start a prairie fire, and don't understand what it means to be a king, a prince, a general, or a minister.

The main theme of the entire One Piece can be expressed in just one sentence in Chinese: We are born free, who dares to be superior to us!

Any Chinese person can see through this method of showing favor to the people and weakening the influence of the previous rulers at a glance, but foreigners generally do not have this political sense unless they are engaged in related industries.

Let me tell you an interesting phenomenon. If you put a Chinese person among a group of foreigners, you will find that he seems to know a little bit about everything. His professional knowledge may be sparse, but his knowledge is very diverse and broad. No matter what industry he is in, he can quickly get started with just a little training.

This is not to say that Chinese people are so smart. This is entirely due to the compulsory education that has fully instilled the essence of Chinese thought over the past five thousand years.

The exam-oriented education that once caused Caesar the most trouble has become his greatest reliance for maneuvering after he traveled through time!
Dividing the Kozuki clan from the people of Wano is an open conspiracy, the same as the Nine-Turn Great Chang.

Without division, the people will go hungry.

After the division, Kozuki completely lost hope of resistance.

Kaido is aware of this, but as said before, he doesn't care!
Yamato didn't realize this and had to choose between the two.

This stubborn and silly girl could only vaguely feel that she was being tricked, but she didn't know where the problem lay. This was why she was inexplicably upset and wanted to beat up Caesar.

"9998..."

"9999..."

"10000!"

Evening, Ghost Island, seaside.

Caesar was doing squats with a huge barbell on his shoulders.

Half a month passed, and he still couldn't master the Armament Haki, but his physical improvement was rapid.

Yesterday he could only do a little over 9,000 squats with the same weight, but today he has already done over 10,000.

Every breakthrough in limits is a qualitative leap.

Boom!
The barbell was thrown to the ground with a dull sound.

Caesar stood up panting lightly, sweat sliding down his muscular lines across his naked upper body, gleaming with a toned luster in the sunlight.

The thigh muscles are a little sore and swollen, but fortunately it does not affect walking.

Now he can use the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement to confront Jinn head-on in terms of strength without being at a disadvantage, and the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement has become more and more proficient in each battle.

Then Jhin banned his Tyrant Entanglement and asked him not to use Tyrant Entanglement again before he learned Armament Haki, otherwise he would use Observation Haki to beat the kid up.

Back at the residence, Yamato lay on the tatami, eating potato chips and reading comics.

The girl's red skirt was loose, one hand supporting her chin, the other hand flipping through a comic book, occasionally taking a handful of potato chips from the bag next to her. Her bare feet were as white as jade and rosy, her calves were crossed and supported, exuding youthful energy.

Since they met, the girl has been living with Caesar. Apart from practicing every day, she is like an overly lively big dog, pestering Caesar with questions and is curious about the world overseas.

To be honest, it's a bit annoying.

So Caesar took out his magic weapon to coax the child: comic snacks and ice cola.

Then the girl became addicted to it uncontrollably.

The comic that Yamato reads is called "Warriors of the Sea: Sky", which was created by the World Economic News based on the naval heroes and Germa 66. It is quite famous all over the world, especially in the North Sea.

Because there really is a Germa 66 in the North Sea...

For Caesar, who has read many comics, the story can only be considered average, but for the world of pirates that lacks entertainment, this is simply a masterpiece.

There is no child who doesn't want a Germa 66 transformation suit, even if they are villains!

Trafalgar Law is such a cold and aloof character, but he couldn't hold back when he saw Sanji's invisible darkness, and even gave a commentary on the spot. This shows how popular this comic is.

For Yamato, who has never been out to sea, the lethality of this comic is at the level of a nuclear bomb!
The good news is that since reading this comic, Yamato hardly touches Oden's logbook anymore.

Bad news, she wants a Germa battle suit...

"Hey, Yamato, have you been reading comics since I left this morning?"

"Uh-huh…"

Yamato responded unconsciously, not noticing Caesar enter the room.

After a few seconds, he seemed to realize something was wrong and looked up at Caesar: "Ha! Caesar, you're back!"

"What do you mean: Ha~ You're back~"

Caesar imitated Yamato's silly smile, but then his expression suddenly turned serious. He grabbed the smooth and tender ankle and dragged it away from the comic book.

"Don't you practice at all? You can't defeat Kaido by just reading comics every day."

Yamato chuckled: "Sorry, I've never seen anything so interesting before, I'm a little bit fascinated by it, hahaha..."

Caesar couldn't help but sigh. He couldn't get angry at Yamato's silly look.

And I’ve never seen anything so interesting… It’s so pathetic, no wonder I was automatically brainwashed after picking up a broken notebook.

"Don't get too obsessed, or I won't tell you the sequel."

This comic book series is serialized in the World Economic News, but the complete set can also be purchased in bookstores.

The snacks and coke were also his collections from the past. Collections are timeless and have no expiration date, so Caesar can even serve him a bowl of hot ramen at any time.

"Know it!"

After a quick shower, Caesar changed his clothes and returned to his room.

Seeing that Yamato was still reading comics, Caesar didn't disturb her. He sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest.

Among the three types of Haki currently, he has awakened the Conqueror's Haki and can already use it in combat.

As for the other two types of domineering, although he has not learned them yet, Caesar has vaguely grasped some clues after fighting these days.

During battle, there's occasionally a sense of power that seems to be eager to burst forth, with nowhere to release it.

And from time to time, he would have a flash of inspiration and guess Jhin's subsequent actions by intuition, but they were vague and unreal, as if covered by a veil.

This feeling is maddening.

It's like looking at flowers in the fog, unable to see clearly, and unable to get in at the last minute.

It makes people anxious and difficult to calm down.

But Caesar was not in a hurry. After all, Luffy had been practicing Armament Haki for half a year and it was still not effective sometimes. He had only been practicing for a month, and it was already very good that he could vaguely sense it.

It is worth mentioning that since domineering is a potential that everyone is born with, sometimes some people who have never learned domineering may accidentally burst out with domineering power.

However, most people are unaware of the existence of this power because they don't understand it. What Caesar needs to do now is to find these two forces and draw them out!
These days he would meditate every day after coming back. Although he had never succeeded once, Caesar could vaguely feel that his five senses seemed to have become more acute!

He closed his eyes, his mind remained empty, and his thoughts were as calm as a lake.

For a moment, the only sounds in the room were Yamato's.

The sound of comics flipping, the crisp sound of potato chips breaking, the sound of cola bubbles bubbling, and Yamato's cheers when he saw the excitement...

There is also the sound of the girl's skirt rubbing against the tatami, the sound of her heart beating, the sound of blood flowing, and the sound of breathing that symbolizes the continuation of life.

Caesar listened quietly, motionless, like an old monk in meditation.

Then, there was a moment.

The perception field centered on him seemed to fluctuate, like a drop of water falling on a calm lake, causing ripples.

Caesar heard it vaguely!
He tried to stir the ripples, using the power of the ripples to push the lake water farther into the distance.

Then the lake water seemed to be stimulated by something, and spread out in all directions!
…………

"The kitchen is ready for supper! It's almost time for the Master and the Missy to eat!"

"Miss... Miss Ayun, are those two in love?"

"Hey, hey, if you want to die, don't take me with you! Is that kind of existence something we can discuss?"

"What does it matter? It's spread all over the island..."

"Cook your meal and don't ask any questions!"

…………

"Ah, Master Blisgra, Sasi is ignoring me. Please come in quickly. It's been a long time since you last visited me."

"Oh hahahaha, I've been too busy lately and don't have time. I'm so sorry, my beautiful girl~"

"Eh? Not many customers have come recently. Was there a battle?"

"I don't know, but I heard there will be big moves at this year's Fire Festival. Let's not talk about that. Did the beauty miss me?"

"Hehe, that's annoying~"

…………

"Master Quinn, Master Kaido asked me to inquire about the progress of your land purification research. We are pressed for time. If there are no results, Master will have no choice but to contact the World Government and ask Vegapunk for a solution. However, before that, he will dismantle your laboratory."

"No way, you royalist! Give me some more time! And what do you mean by that? I'm no worse than that guy Vegapunk, you bastard!"

"This is what Lord Kaido meant..."

"Ha! You're just talking nonsense! That bastard boss! Who do you think caused the land pollution? Damn it! It's all that Bat Boy's fault!"

"Caesar? That guy is so handsome, he's my type!"

"Eh?!! Do you like that type? No! Who cares about you, you little brat! Don't bother me!"

…………

For a moment, countless complicated voices entered Caesar's mind, making him dizzy.

In the room, Yamato, who was reading a comic, seemed to notice something, was slightly startled, and turned to look at Caesar.

Seeing Caesar frowning, Yamato stood up silently and walked behind Caesar.

Then she sat down cross-legged, opened her arms and pulled Caesar into her arms, and gently massaged Caesar's head with her soft palms.

Caesar, who was immersed in his first experience of diffused perception of Observation Haki, felt his body lighten, and then the back of his head sank into an indescribably soft and wonderful place.

What a great move!
Caesar closed his eyes and continued to use his observation Haki to sense the external environment.

This was the first time he successfully used Observation Haki. Although the information about overclocking made him a little dizzy, Caesar did not want to miss this good opportunity.

After a long while, Caesar slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, his head was being sandwiched between two huge consciences, with dazzling holy light emanating from both sides of his cheeks!

"how do you feel?"

Yamato's voice came from above.

Caesar looked up at the pretty face and said seriously, "Very soft!"

Yamato's face darkened. "I was asking how it felt to use your Observation Haki for the first time! Who asked that, idiot?"

“It feels amazing.”

Caesar sat up and hooked his finger at Yamato: "Come and try to hit me."

Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark fist in the color of armed forces slammed heavily into Caesar's chest and abdomen.

Caesar's back suddenly arched and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

The red pupils contracted violently, Caesar opened his eyes wide, and looked at Yamato in shock.

It seems that the other party will honestly say in the next second: I am a farmer!
"Hey, Caesar, are you okay?"

Seeing this, Yamato turned pale and hurriedly supported Caesar.

"I'm just not ready..."

"Oh, do we have to do it again?"

"… Never mind. I'm fine now."

Well, the animal department is good!
Animals have strong vitality, and this injury can be healed by a big meal.

But if it were in the past, Caesar had no doubt that the punch just now would have killed him before he ate the fruit.

Falling back into Yamato's arms, Caesar looked up at that beautiful face.

Yamato's big eyes never blinked, and his gaze was very clear.

"Aren't you a girl again?"

"Ah, that's right!"

"Is it okay for me to lie like this?"

"Oh, no problem!"

"you--"

Caesar opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.

Given the other party's heartless nature, he probably wouldn't take such things to heart at all.

"If it's Caesar, then there's absolutely no problem!"

Behind him, Yamato suddenly grinned, his smile full of energy.

"Hmm? If that's the case, then others can't do it?"

"Of course! I'm a girl! What are you thinking, idiot!"

"Then why is it okay for me?"

"Um--"

Yamato thought about it carefully, and suddenly laughed again, with a faint blush on his innocent smile.

"I don't know, but if it's Caesar, then there's no problem. He's Caesar after all, haha..."
