Arceus' Pirate Journey

But it’s different for the beasts; they choose gifts very casually.

We are of equal status, so it doesn’t matter what you give me, as long as it’s a thoughtful gift.

It will be easier if you have a higher status. No matter what you give, the other party will accept it happily. As for the behavior of ruining the party, it is another matter.

Other people in the underground world have to prepare special gifts because their status is not as good as that of the other beasts. All beasts are equal in name, but in fact, Katakuri and the others know very well that they, with only one Big Mom, are more than one level lower than the beasts.

Combined with Charlotte Linlin’s own personality, the ingredients sent by Baishou are enough to serve as a special blind box.

At this time, Meowna and Wolf were collecting gifts in the woods of Wano Country.

Soon they found their target, two special-looking trees. With their arrival, the two trees began to move like the tree people, and the purple fruits on the branches began to drip liquid.

It looks like a carnivorous plant, but it is actually a kind-hearted Pokémon.

Olive Pokémon - Oliva, a plant-type grass-type Pokémon. Under suitable environmental conditions, their bodies will continue to grow and can even grow into giant ancient trees.

The purple fruit can secrete a rich and nutritious oil that has the delicate taste of animal oil and the fragrance of vegetable oil. You won’t feel greasy even if you drink it directly.

At the same time, Oliva also has some similarities with the Salt Stone Giant. The Salt Stone Giant can compress salt particles and launch salt bombs, and Oliva can also launch high-pressure oil guns.

Those seemingly ordinary fruits can even crush rocks when they are closed and squeezed. Even if they are extremely docile, they will fight back if threatened.

In the process of collecting the oil, some scattered oil fell on Meowna and Wolf. If it was ordinary oil, it would only make their bodies sticky, but Oliva's oil can even protect the skin.

After straightening, their hair became smoother. Since the Fur Tribe inherited the characteristics of mammals, Oliva's oil has long become the most popular item among this tribe.

With some things prepared by Taizulo and Kojiro respectively, the gift pack of Hundred Beasts is ready.

......

As the date approaches, various forces have gradually moved closer to Cake Island, and the Straw Hat Pirates are no exception. However, they are facing a major crisis and are on the verge of starvation.

Sanji's departure left them without a chef, and they were only left with the food on the ship. This wasn't a problem at all, as they wouldn't starve to death even if the food tasted a little worse.

Luo, Nami and Von Clay all have the ability to cook, because they have all studied in the Kingdom of Demons and Humans, and Von Clay can even serve as an apprentice chef at this time.

But Luffy made the biggest mistake of his life. He agreed to Bonnie's request and let her have a full meal.

Bonnie, who is known as the big eater, has a terrifying appetite. She almost ate all the food by herself. That was enough food for the Straw Hat Pirates, including Luffy, to eat for several days.

After that, they began to act separately. Luffy and his friends originally thought that they could replenish enough food on the way, but as they entered the waters of Wano Country, everything became different.

The scorching sun shone on the deck, and a group of people were staring at the sea, hoping that there would be fish to bite.

The mysteriousness of the waters of Ten Thousand Nations is also among the most mysterious in the New World.

There are a large number of Pokémon living in the Sea of ​​Beasts, including the ferocious Gyarados, the amiable Lapras, the peaceful Whale Watcher, and the Whale Watcher that tries to fly from time to time. All kinds of strange Pokémon emerge in an endless stream.

What is unique about Banko is the properties of its sea. Juice sea, wine sea, and even poisonous sea containing toxins can be seen here. Luffy and his friends are currently in such a special sea.

The changeable climate of the New World made the temperature here abnormally high. Bubbles even kept coming out of the sea surface, and it was in a boiling state. The people on the ship experienced the feeling of being in a steamer.

At this temperature, no fish would enter the sea, and the only food on the boat to fill their stomachs was the cabbage that Kanjuro had drawn.

At this time, Kanjuro no longer hid his painting skills, but the limitations of the fruit's ability meant that no matter how realistically he drew the food, he could not change the taste of the food, so it didn't matter what it looked like.

However, the ability of the fruit also consumes physical energy. Even if the drawn cabbage is extremely unpalatable, they have nothing to eat now.

"Everyone... Come on... If we can't get any more food, we'll starve to death..."

When a person is unlucky, even drinking cold water will cause a ache in his teeth. Due to the change in the route, Luffy did not get the chance to let Pokumus lead the way, and accidentally entered the territory of BIG MOM.

The fruit ability user is afraid of water, but the ability user's creations are different. This sea area is filled with Homies made by Charlotte Linlin, acting as sea radars to guard their own territory.

Soon, a patrol boat came over, and just when the Straw Hat Pirates were forced to prepare for battle, the Homies soldiers stopped. They sensed a special scent from the things dropped by Nami.

Looking at the piece of paper in Nami's purse, the Homies immediately stood at attention and expressed their apologies.

"Excuse me, it turns out you are also my mother's guests. We misunderstood. Why didn't you come in via the normal route?"

"Well...we are lost..."

"Is that so? Please follow us and we will take you to the nations."

The intelligence levels of the Homies vary greatly, and these lowest-level soldiers have limited thinking abilities, so anything that can be commanded will cause them to change their attitudes.

The piece of paper was none other than the life card that Lola gave to Nami, and it worked wonders at this time. In this way, the Straw Hat Pirates entered the surrounding islands safely and also obtained some food.

"This is the life card that Lola gave me. She said her mother is a pirate... Could her mother be that Big Mom?!"

For a moment, Nami seemed to think that this action was not so dangerous.

"Lola also asked us to say hello to her mother on her behalf, and said that with this life card, she would also take care of us..."

"Don't be silly, it's not that simple."

Luo on the side dispelled Nami's thoughts and began to educate him with some information.

“Totland, or the Ten Thousand Kingdoms, is made up of a total of thirty-five important islands. Apart from the core Cake Island, the remaining thirty-four islands are led by her children.

BIG MOM has a kind of control over her children. Over the years, I have only heard of one person leaving BIG MOM’s management.”

Unlike the Straw Hat Pirates, Law has been collecting intelligence about the New World and knows much more about this matter than the Straw Hat Pirates.

"That person... ruined Big Mom's marriage and ran away. The whole ocean knows this. If you got Big Mom's life card out there, it's probably her.

If Big Mom finds out about this, she might get even angrier. Now that we're already here, the most urgent thing is to quietly find the Blackfoot boss first."

Law dispelled Nami's naive ideas and arranged a new action.

......

At the same time, the kings of various underground industries from islands in different directions of the world arrived here one after another.

They are the kings of all fields in the underground world of the new world. The underground world has undergone several major reshuffles over the years, but they have persisted to the end and have become the final few decision-makers.

Together, these people almost monopolize everything in the underground world.

The loan shark king, Du Field, who has become fat and bald in middle age, has arrived at the Cheese Island in the west and is received by Mondor, who is in charge of the island.

Du Field's main business is usury. He is the controller of currency circulation in the dark world. He has the most liquid funds among several forces. Occasionally, he also works as an angel investor. MADS was sponsored by him.

But he is also a black-hearted angel who will never give money unless there is a huge benefit.

Morgans has also arrived at Biscuit Island in the northwest, where he met Cracker. He has sensed that there will be big news this time, so he has been keeping his beak open since he set out.

The Queen of Happy Street, Stussy, arrived at the Liqueur Island in the southwest, where she was being received by the Minister of Wine, Zicket.

She is an agent of the World Government and a member of CP0, but she is also a clone of Bakin, and is supposed to be a double agent affiliated with Vegapunk.

It’s just that Vegapunk’s original body is dead, and her clone asked her to cooperate with the actions of the World Government, so she is no different from an ordinary CP0.

The former king of shipping, Deep Sea Current Umit, also arrived at Wheat Island, but he was greeted by only one Homitz.

He looked a little decadent at this moment. Originally, he was the manager of the ocean shipping industry in the New World's underground business and the person with the most extensive business.

At that time, almost all the pirates in the New World were dependent on his business. He controlled several secret ocean currents and was able to deliver goods to their destinations more safely.

However, the original decision allowed Baishou to break his monopoly, and the additional ocean currents seriously damaged Umit's business. It was not easy for him to stay here. The possibility of him being kicked out directly in this operation was the highest.

The owner of the warehouse business, the hidden master Kiboson, arrived at the southeastern Ice Cream Island, followed closely by the big-handed undertaker - Draco Piercro.

The people of Beasts were different. Charlotte Lingling's Homies gave them the green light along the way and led them directly to Cake Island.

Big Mom didn't show up in person, so Katakuri and Smoothie came to receive the beasts, showing a completely different attitude...

Chapter 1227 The Value and Significance of Getting Lost

"Everyone, please come this way. Mom has been waiting for a long time."

Smoothie led Zeraora, Tezoro and others towards the center of Cake Island, but Katakuri did not follow.

The wedding is approaching, and Katakuri is still very busy during this period.

A while ago, Charlotte Lingling would make some decisions herself, but as the days passed, her emotions began to become unstable and she had a strong sense of anticipation for the wedding cake.

In this situation, the responsibility of the pirate group fell back on Katakuri and Perospero, and coming to the port to greet them was already time they had specially taken out of courtesy.

After conveying what he wanted to say, Katakuri went to deal with more important things. From the fact that he hurriedly left after answering a phone call, it can be seen that the matter was very urgent.

Instead, Pokmus took over his part of the reception work.

Due to various historical factors, Zeraora and Setsuna are the people who appear here the most times, and Pokumus, who is a member of the Fur Tribe, has become the reception ambassador.

They were about to arrive, but Smoothie stopped to answer a phone call. Judging from his expression, it didn't seem like it was a good thing.

"Everyone, Mom has something urgent to do. I will take you to a place to rest first. The wedding will be held the day after tomorrow. It will be the same if you see Mom tomorrow."

"Do you need help?"

"No, we can still handle this."

Smoothie didn't say it, but Zeraora could guess that something had happened on Cake Island. Not far from them, they could see that something was wreaking havoc.

There aren't many people who can do this kind of thing in the heart of Cake Island, and the most likely person is Charlotte Linlin herself.

Considering Katakuri's hurried departure earlier and Smoothie's expression at this moment, it can be basically concluded that Charlotte Linlin's food craving has recurred.

Unless they urgently need ingredients that are not available on Cake Island, the people from the Big Thieves Group will not let outsiders interfere in this matter.

Charlotte Lingling's food cravings occur at basically irregular intervals, but the treatment is not complicated. As long as she can eat the food she wants in time, the symptoms will naturally be alleviated.

"Pokmus, please lead the way. I will leave for a while."

Katakuri had tried to stop Charlotte Linlin's gluttony before, but something went wrong. It might be that the quality of the food in the Beast Fruit was too high, which led to a new development in Charlotte Linlin's gluttony.

There is a certain possibility that she changed the food she needed during the illness, but the probability is very small, and it happened at this time.

The food on Cake Island is also divided into different areas, and some resources need to be mobilized at this time, so Smoothie has a new task.

"Master Zeraora, you should have heard about my mother's situation. This is a force majeure factor...

Please follow me, the resting place is right here."

Pokumus brought Zeraora and the others to a guest room made of biscuits. The altitude here was relatively high, and one could overlook half of the Cake Island, and just in time to see Charlotte Linlin who was destroying it.

"Pokmu, it seems that you are usually very busy."

Judging from the scope of the impact, the destructive power is much more serious than Kaido's drunken madness, and the evacuation alarm has sounded on Cake Island, and people on the Big Shin path are taking emergency shelter.

"It's... it's okay... Mom doesn't always get sick... probably."

"Okay, this isn't my first time here, just go and do your thing. You know my number, so if you can't handle it, just contact me."

Patting Pokumus, Zeraora signaled that he could leave.

Only after he was sure that Pokmus had left did he pick up his two children.

"You see, this island is dangerous. You two are over the safe age. Don't be too reckless when you see her next time."

Meowna and Wolf were born in late 1510, so it was already 1522.

Charlotte Lingling's special preference is for children under 10 years old, whose age cannot be determined by their appearance.

Charlotte Linlin is different. She is the user of the Soul-Soul Fruit, which allows her to collect lifespans. With her ability, she can see a person's remaining lifespan and experienced lifespan.

This ability is almost passive. Her children have even experienced being very favored the day before and being scorned the next day. Even after only one day, they are already over their age in Charlotte Lingling's mind.

"In theory, after an episode of food cravings, unless something unexpected happens, it won't happen again in a short period of time, so it's still pretty safe in the next period of time. It's okay for you to go shopping around.

Now you guys just play around here, Dad wants to talk to the uncles about something."

He roughly drew a circle around Meowna and Wolf. At this time, his words were still very effective.

When on a private family trip, Meowna and Wolf would be extremely lively, but at a formal event like this, they would behave very well in case Zeraora didn't bring them out next time.

......

"Are you really comfortable letting them wander around here? This is not a ghost island."

Tezoro was sitting by the window of the dessert shop. From the corner of his eye he could see Meowna and the others hunting down Homies. In a way, this was also a special hunting exercise.

"That's what you say, I'll just follow quietly when the time comes."

The child has fun and he doesn't have to worry about safety.

"I don't think you need to be so nervous. Wanda, Carrot and Bepo are all Moon Leo, right? Your two are also quite capable, so you don't need to worry about the minor troubles."

Kojiro looked at the talking table in front of him curiously. It was his first time in Wanguo and he was curious about everything here.

"I will give up in two years. It's still a little small now. By the way, how should we deal with the so-called alliance? Mr. Kaido didn't give any standards at all. Let us figure it out on our own."

"Leave it to me. We already have an absolute advantage in terms of transportation capacity. No one can compare with us, whether it's sea or air transportation. By then, we will have absolute dominance in many sea routes.

Don’t worry too much about other things. There are too many people in the underground world. If we do everything ourselves, we won’t have enough manpower. As long as we can make these leaders understand who is the boss, that’s enough.”
