Linlin's Weird Request and Yamato's Birthday Party

However, they didn't set off immediately. The chefs on Whole Cake Island were terribly exhausted, and they needed to rest for one night.

Charlotte Linlin, who had eaten the banana ice cream cake, regained her rationality. She didn't seem to care about what happened here, and no one mentioned it either.

Afterwards, following Big Mom's suggestion, she specially held a family banquet to entertain Zeraora, who had rushed over from afar.

"Mama-hahaha, thank you for your help. That guy Kaido really found some great subordinates."

Zeraora didn't refute anything. After all, from the outside world's perspective, they were all considered Kaido's subordinates. However, what Charlotte Linlin said next was unexpected.

"Would you like to be my husband? Zeraora, I think you're quite capable."

Charlotte Linlin looked at Zeraora with a slightly ambiguous expression, which made Zeraora feel uncomfortable.

"No, I don't have any thoughts in that direction."

"Just look at how cute these children are. Don't you want them to call you daddy?"

Katakuri and the others were used to Big Mom's such behavior; they couldn't even count how many fathers they had.

Moreover, Charlotte Linlin had a serious collection obsession. Her husbands were from various races, so it wasn't strange for her to have some thoughts after seeing a Mink.

At this moment, the photos Setsuna took with him on Skypiea came in handy. He used it as a reason to politely reject Charlotte Linlin.

"We have a significant age difference, and I already have a suitable partner."

If it were an ordinary person, Charlotte Linlin wouldn't mind taking him forcefully. After all, some of her husbands came to be through such methods. But Zeraora was after all Kaido's man.

Although she really wanted a Mink, she didn't push the matter too much. It wasn't worth falling out with Kaido over something like this.

"Then forget it. If you find a suitable Mink, remember to introduce them to me."

After that, Charlotte Linlin didn't say anything else. She engaged in a brief casual conversation before allowing Streusen and his professional team to accompany Zeraora and leave. They would depart from Whole Cake Island, reach the nearby territory of the Beasts Pirates, and then change ships to head towards Wano Country.

"Mama, the Longarm tribe member, unfortunately died yesterday."

Katakuri cautiously whispered to Charlotte Linlin. The identity of that longarm tribe member was her current husband, or rather, her ex-husband now.

However, she was indifferent towards it. After all, as far as she was concerned, once the child was born, the man became useless. Currently, she could assemble almost two football teams with the number of her ex-husbands.

"Oh, really? What a pity. Bury him."

"Yes."

"By the way, have they found the pirates who robbed our things?"

She couldn't ignore someone who had stolen from her unless she couldn't defeat them.

Currently, the only one who had taken something from her was Roger, who stole the Poneglyph's imprint. But he was Roger, someone who had already become the Pirate King. As for those trifling newcomers who had just arrived in the New World, she would make them understand what true terror meant.

"They have been found. Daifuku and Oven are ready with the Extermination Team."

"No need for them. Give me the address. This time, I'll go personally."

"Yes, Mama."

Even without anyone else, the current Charlotte Linlin, who was only in her forties, was the strongest force in the Big Mom Pirates. As Katakuri watched Charlotte Linlin leave riding Zeus the Thundercloud, he mourned for them silently for a few minutes.

In Wano Country, Queen was still feeling that something was off. Even though he had ruthlessly ripped-off Perospero over the phone, he didn't feel any sense of satisfaction in his heart. The sense of crisis from before was still lingering in his heart.

For safety reasons, he felt it would be better to hide on nearby islands for a few days. Afterwards, he encountered Kaido, who had just returned, on the outskirts of Onigashima near Mogura Port.

"Queen, where are you going?"

"Ah, Boss Kaido, nowhere important. Just going out for a walk, I'll be back in a few days."

"Nowhere important? Yamato's birthday is coming up soon, and you're casually wandering around without a care. It seems like you're looking down on me."

"No, Boss Kaido, I absolutely didn't mean it that way!"

He only wanted to avoid trouble by going out, but he forgot about this matter.

"No need to say more, I trust you."

"Boss Kaido!"

"Come to the rooftop of Onigashima tonight, I'll check your progress in Armament Haki."

Queen's smile lasted less than three seconds before Kaido brought him back to reality.

According to the rumors, people on Onigashima heard extremely tragic screams that day.

In fact, Kaido didn't care about birthdays. He felt they were meaningless and would rather spend that time practicing Haki. However, Arceus cared about such things, especially the psychological well-being of the children on Onigashima.

Though there were some differences in treatment, overall it was not bad. Previously, when Jack and Maria had their birthdays, they were also given simple celebrations.

However, compared to Yamato's birthday, theirs fell short. While they didn't gather the entire crew, all the members on Wano Country participated.

Streusen's professional team didn't come to Onigashima but was taken by Zeraora to the islands outside of Wano Country, where they could make cakes.

Based on Yamato's preferences, personality traits, age, and taste habits, Streusen designed a three-layer mousse cake with care.

They also saw the differences in the Beasts Pirates. Alcremie that provided cream caught Streusen's attention. In his view, Alcremie, similar to the Homies created by Charlotte Linlin, could produce creams of various flavors.

He really wanted to bring one back to Totto Land. It was a partner no pastry expert could resist. Unfortunately, Zeraora didn't allow it since it was Arceus' command that Alcremie and Milcery were not allowed to enter the territory of Totto Land.

On November 3, 1497, Yamato's third birthday arrived. She didn't receive many gifts since ordinary members couldn't afford much. Few pirates had the habit of saving money, making it difficult for them to give presents.

So only the officers and her friends had the privilege of giving gifts, but those weren't her main focus. She was more curious about what her two fathers would give her.

Indeed, Kaido had prepared a gift for her, Takeru 2.0, as the previous one was no longer suitable for her.

As for the gift from Arceus, it was a small green light orb.

"Dad, what is this?"

"This? It's something good, you'll like it." He said as he pressed the light orb to her head.

She didn't feel anything, but afterwards, she noticed that she could sense the Milcery on her shoulder wishing her a happy birthday. She even understood Chansey's thoughts more clearly.

That light orb contained a special power, often referred to as the Power of Viridian*.

[TN: It's a special ability bestowed by Viridian Forest, just like what Yellow from Pokémon Adventures manga was bestowed by Virdian Forest. This power can be used to heal and communicate with Pokemon.]
