One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, starts with the Eight Gates Formation.

Kaido stared at the pink little ball of flesh on the ground, his surprise and doubt gradually replaced by a kind of fanatical excitement.

Conqueror's Haki!

So pure, so oppressive, is the color of a conqueror!

It actually came from a newborn baby!

This is even more outrageous than what I did back then!

"Hiccup..." Kaido hiccuped again, but his eyes were unusually clear.

He thought of his good-for-nothing daughter, Yamato.

He keeps clamoring to be like Kozuki Oden; it's utterly shameful!

It's ruined!

Look at this little thing in front of you...

He was born with such an amazing Conqueror's Haki!

This is the successor Lao Tzu wanted!

Kaido grinned, revealing a hideous smile.

"Kid, from today onwards, you're my son!"

He didn't give Lynn a chance to react at all. His huge hand carefully reached out and gently lifted Lynn's limp body.

"I'll call you... Lynn!"

Kaido casually decided on a name, his voice like a rumbling thunderclap.

Lynn: "..."

What the hell!

Is it really Lynn?

Same name as me?

What is this? Fate?

but……

They survived!

You made the right bet!

Kaido, that madman, actually adopted me just because of my Conqueror's Haki!

Lynn was overjoyed; his survival instinct temporarily suppressed his worries about the future.

He's just a baby now, only able to make meaningless babbling sounds.

But in Kaido's eyes, the babbling sound, coupled with the tear stains on Lynn's face (which were actually from pain), was a "joyful" response to his decision!

"Hahaha! Great! Interesting!"

Kaido was even more pleased, feeling that this kid was on his side.

He carefully adjusted his position, placing Lynn on his broad shoulders.

wrong.

The shoulders are not stable.

Kaido thought for a moment and then simply placed Lynn on his head.

Yes, the dragon throne, that's more impressive!

Lynn was placed on Kaido's hard, horny scalp, feeling the vibrations and warmth coming from below, and he was completely stunned.

This treatment... isn't it a bit too much?

"Hold on tight, kid!"

Kaido roared.

boom--!!!

His massive body instantly transformed into a majestic azure dragon, soaring into the sky!

The wind howled, easily tearing the clouds apart.

Lynn felt dizzy and the wind was whistling in his ears.

He was held in place on top of Kaido's dragon head by an invisible force, so he didn't have to worry about falling off.

From a high altitude, the islands below appear to shrink rapidly.

Kaido, in his dragon form, flew rapidly in one direction.

Our destination: Wano Country, Onigashima Island!

……

Oni Island, inside the giant skull fortress.

Banquet hall.

The senior officers of the Beasts Pirates are drinking and making a ruckus.

"Boss Jin, another drink, please!"

"Lord Quinn, you've gained weight again!"

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm just strong!"

The three calamities—Jhin the "Blazing Calamity," Quinn the "Plague Calamity," and Jake the "Drought Calamity"—each occupy a territory.

The Flying Six—Foz Foz, Black Maria, Sasaki, Ulti, and Page One—were also making a ruckus in their respective territories.

The atmosphere was both lively and chaotic.

Just then.

Boom!

With a loud crash, a huge hole was smashed open in the ceiling of the hall!

Gravel and wood chips fell with a clatter.

A massive dragon head peered inside!

It was Kaido who had just returned!

"Boss Kaido!"

"The governor is back!"

The noisy hall fell silent instantly, and everyone stood up, looking at Kaido with awe.

Kaido transformed back into human form and landed with a thud, shaking the ground three times.

In his hands, he was carefully cradling a... baby?

"Um?"

"What is that?"

"baby?"

Jhin, Queen, Jack, and the Flying Six were all stunned.

Kaido went out and brought back a child?

Where is it?

"Hahaha! You all better watch out!"

Kaido lifted Lynn high, his rough laughter echoing through the hall.

"From this day forward, this brat is my son!"

"I named him Lynn!"

"He will be the man who inherits the will of my Beasts Pirates!"

What?!

son?!

The heir?!

All the cadres were stunned and looked at each other blankly.

Where is Miss Yamato?

What's wrong with the governor now?

Queen's fat face was filled with confusion, and he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Kaido... what... what's going on? This little guy..."

"Shut up, Queen!" Kaido glared at him. "This brat isn't an ordinary person!"

He looked at Lynn in his arms with a smug look in his eyes.

"Lynn! Let them see what you've got!"

experience?

What's there to see?

Lynn blinked.

Oh, is it Conqueror's Haki?

Fine.

Although I'm still not quite sure how to control it, I should be able to release it without any problems.

He focused his mind and tried once again to summon the power deep within his soul.

Om-! ! !

An invisible pressure, even more concentrated and terrifying than what they had experienced on the deserted island, instantly enveloped the entire hall!

The air is frozen!

The wine glasses, tables, and chairs began to shake violently!

Click!Click!

Some objects that are not sturdy enough developed cracks on their surface!

Inside the hall, apart from Kaido and King who could barely stand, everyone else, including Queen and Jack, felt a chill run down their spines!

The six members of the Flying Six were even paler than before, and some of them couldn't help but feel their legs go weak and almost knelt down!

"This...this is..." Quinn's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and his fat jiggled wildly.

"Conqueror's Haki?!" Jack exclaimed in shock, his face filled with horror.

Even on Jhin's masked face, extreme shock was evident.

That domineering aura...

So strong!

That's ridiculously strong!

It seems... even more oppressive than when Governor Kaido unleashes his full power?!

How is this possible?!

It's just a baby!

A newborn baby's Conqueror's Haki was enough to shake these battle-hardened pirates?!

monster!

That's absolutely monstrous talent!

Feeling this overwhelming aura, Kaido laughed heartily with satisfaction: "Hahahaha! Do you see that? This is Lynn! A born king!"

The hall was completely silent.

All eyes were fixed on the tiny baby, filled with awe and disbelief.

After a brief silence.

"Greetings, Master Lynn!"

"Young Master Lynn!"

Led by the Three Disasters, all the cadres, including the unruly Flying Six, knelt on one knee or bowed deeply to express their submission and respect.

They had no doubt.

An infant with such terrifying Conqueror's Haki will definitely become a super big shot who reigns over this sea, as long as he grows up smoothly!

Even... surpassing Governor Kaido!

Lynn looked at the group of fierce-looking pirates bowing to him, a baby, and felt a strange sensation in his heart.

Is this... the respect that comes with power?

In the world of One Piece, strength truly reigns supreme!

[Ding! Host has begun to integrate into the environment. Mission "Survival in Dire straits" progress updated: 1/100 days.]

The system notification sounded at the appropriate time.

99 days left...

Lynn looked at Kaido, who was hugging him and laughing loudly, and then looked at the Beast Pirates officers kneeling below.

The start was dangerous, but it seems... not bad?

At least, we're safe for now.
