Kaido and King Take Action
Kaido looked at Uchiha Ryōsuke.
"Good kid, then I'll grant your wish and bring them all here."
With his strength, wouldn't it be simple to personally bring a few women over?
If he went personally and they refused, he would just take them by force.
This was basically his old profession.
However, he also considered other issues.
He voiced his question.
"Kid, you're marrying so many women this time. Where does that leave Yamato?"
His daughter Yamato was a bit too naive. If he didn't fight for her properly, she might end up marginalized.
Aside from Princess Shirahoshi and Rebecca, the others were all shrewd and cunning.
Especially that Pirate Empress, who was not the slightest bit inferior to a young Pirate Linlin.
If someone like her came to Onigashima, Yamato probably wouldn't be able to compete with her in any aspect.
Ryōsuke looked at Kaido and said calmly,
"Yamato is my first woman, so naturally, she will be my First Imperial Consort. You don't need to worry about that."
Yamato felt a bit relieved in her heart.
'First Imperial Consort?'
'It really feels like I'm being valued.'
Ulti hurriedly spoke up,
"Lord Ryōsuke, what about me?"
Ryōsuke smiled and said,
"Then you will be my Second Imperial Consort."
A smile bloomed on Ulti's face.
Being the Second Imperial Consort was pretty good too; her status would be higher than the five who were about to arrive.
Even though they were noble princesses or the Pirate Empress, their status would be below hers.
That was enough for her.
Hearing Ryōsuke's words, Kaido felt extremely satisfied.
First Imperial Consort. That meant in the future, once this kid successfully established his empire, the child born between them—his own grandchild—would be the first in line to the throne.
Not to mention, with him as the grandfather, ascending to the throne would be even easier.
"Alright, I'll head out as soon as I recover from my injuries. These wounds are simply too severe; I'll probably need to rest for a few months."
It couldn't be helped. Even with his robust physique, these injuries were far too heavy.
He didn't even know how many bones were broken.
The fact that he could hold on until now was already the result of his tenacious willpower and sturdy body.
Hearing this, Ryōsuke was displeased.
Wait a few months? How could that be possible?
With his current abilities, strength, and status, waiting a few months was completely unnecessary.
He looked at Kaido and said,
"There's no need for that. I will heal you right now."
He stood up directly from the throne and slowly walked toward Kaido of the Beasts.
Everyone wore expressions of surprise.
Did this lord also know medical skills?
But even if his medical skills were superb, how could he possibly heal Lord Kaido from such severe injuries?
There probably wasn't such miraculous medicine on the seas, right?
Even the best doctors on the seas couldn't possibly heal Lord Kaido all at once.
They widened their eyes, wanting to see how this lord would treat him.
Kaido didn't quite believe it either.
However, he did look forward to the other party being able to heal him.
This painful sensation was truly too troublesome. He couldn't even drink alcohol for fear of aggravating his wounds; his internal organs and bones were genuinely damaged.
Ryōsuke walked up to Kaido and extended his right hand.
Yin-Yang Release Healing Power activated.
A warm current flowed directly from his palm into Kaido's body, slowly healing his muscles and bones.
The swollen and bruised muscles slowly returned to normal, and even the bones began to mend together.
Kaido felt the warm current flowing through his body as his bones and muscles began to repair themselves.
His body started to itch. He knew the healing process had begun, so he didn't move recklessly.
An expression of absolute disbelief suddenly appeared on his face.
'This guy actually has such a miraculous ability.'
Immediately after, an unbelievable scene occurred. Even some of his hidden, old injuries began to heal. His body felt better than ever before.
'This man is truly a god.'
'Just what kind of Devil Fruit did he eat to possess such an ability?'
'It feels even more incredible than the legendary Op-Op Fruit.'
'Forget it, he wouldn't tell me even if I asked anyway.'
Ryōsuke looked at him.
"You can go now, right?"
Kaido felt his unprecedentedly healthy body.
"Alright."
Offending the World Government and the Marines was his favorite thing to do.
He hadn't forgotten how the Vodka Kingdom had once sold him to the World Government like livestock.
This humiliation would remain in his heart forever.
He walked straight out of the conference room.
Arriving at an open area outside, he directly transformed into a massive azure dragon and flew toward the west.
He would start with Princess Vivi; she was the furthest away.
After Kaido left, Ryōsuke looked at King the Conflagration.
"I also have a small task for you to do."
"Please give your orders, my lord."
King was now completely convinced by this lord. Not only did he possess terrifying combat power and a special Devil Fruit ability, but this Devil Fruit could even heal people.
Of course, this was merely his speculation.
No matter which aspect you looked at, this ability was top-tier.
The most important thing, of course, was that he would make an enemy of the World Government.
Ryōsuke said calmly,
"Go to Shimotsuki Village in the East Blue, find a kendo dojo, and retrieve Kuina's remains."
"Also, head to Ohara and retrieve the remains of Nico Olvia."
Hearing this, King wore a look of surprise. He hadn't expected it to be this kind of task.
'What use could there be in retrieving the bones of dead people?'
He truly couldn't understand it.
But then he recalled how Kaido's injuries had just been instantly healed.
He suddenly seemed to grasp something. 'Could it be that he wants to resurrect the dead?'
He felt deeply shocked in his heart. 'Could this lord actually be capable of doing something like that?'
'One must know that Nico Olvia was once the leader of those researching the hidden history.'
'She was also the mother of the Devil Child, Nico Robin.'
'Could it be that the lord wants her to study the Poneglyphs and uncover the true faces of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons?'
'When that time comes, we will definitely stand against the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, perhaps even in a war to the bitter end.'
'With this lord's capabilities, when that time comes, he will definitely be able to wipe out the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.'
'Just as this lord said, destroying them would be nothing more than a breeze.'
Instantly, his heart surged with excitement.
"My lord, I will go handle it right now."
After saying that, he walked straight out of the conference hall and headed outside. He directly activated his Devil Fruit power, transforming into a Pteranodon, and rushed toward the East Blue at top speed, planning to head to the West Blue afterward.
His speed was even faster than Lord Kaido's, although his combat power was far weaker.
After making arrangements for King, Ryōsuke planned his next move.
"Next, I will announce another major event. The Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets will annex the neighboring Wano Country and turn it into our own territory. The day of our expedition is tomorrow."
The pirates below were all thrilled.
Or rather, they were now the grand army of the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets.
Wano Country was originally the territory of their former Beast Pirates; now, they were simply taking official and rightful control of it.
The current Shogun of Wano Country, Kurozumi Orochi, was absolutely nothing.
If it weren't for the protection of their former Beast Pirates, he wouldn't have been able to rule Wano Country at all.
They were truly weaklings compared to the combat power of the former Beast Pirates.
Without a doubt, there was simply no comparison.
