*Hidden Title*

Nico Robin was pulled away by Yamato and her group, while Arceus returned to the rooftop of Onigashima. At this moment, Kaido was taking a beating, not because Emboar could suppress him, but because he was deliberately letting himself get hit.

"Increase the intensity of the fire a bit more, this isn't enough!"

Amidst the flames, Kaido felt like he was in a sauna, urging Emboar to increase the intensity of the fire. To constantly temper his Haki, he sometimes needed to take beatings. This was the reason for his reckless behavior wherever he goes out.

However, this frequency was decreasing. Although you could occasionally see the news of Kaido fighting someone, he hadn't got himself captured in the past few years.

By relying on his exceptional defense, he had earned the reputation for almost never getting injured. There were almost no visible scars on his body, and he was ranked alongside Charlotte Linlin's iron balloon as having the strongest physique. He was gradually gaining the title of the strongest creature.

With Arceus' increasing power, Kaido had found better ways to train his body. The combination of Fairy + Dragon attacks were quite painful.

"Aren't you supposed to be playing with her?"

"Let the kids play on their own. Where are Oden's two swords?"

"In the treasure vault, they're probably covered in dust by now."

After Kozuki Oden's death, Enma and Ame no Habakiri naturally became spoils of war for the Beasts Pirates, but there were no pure swordsmen within the crew.

Kaido and Yamato wielded kanabos, while King used a modified shark-tooth sword.

Although Kojiro wields a sword, given his physique and style, Ame no Habakiri is too short. The same applies to Enma, moreover with his physique, Enma would probably drain him dry.

Enma and Ame no Habakiri were, after all, both one of 21 Great Grade swords. It would be a waste to destroy them outright.

Now that the Iron Plate had returned, Arceus had new ideas for those two swords. Pokémon were not just limited to animals and plants; as one of the most magical species, metal objects were also included.

With the return of the Iron Plate, Enma and Ame no Habakiri had a chance to shine once again.

"Rotom, where are the two swords, Enma and Ame no Habakiri?"

Inside the Beasts Pirates' underground treasure vault, Arceus asked the Rotom inside. In addition to the Rotom serving as the electronic door guard, there were also special Rotom units acting as warehouse keepers.

After a quick check within the electronic system, Rotom determined the location of Enma and Ame no Habakiri.

In some of the future islands, things like computers are quite common and can be used on islands with electricity. However, there is no internet here, so electronic computers had some limitations. Nevertheless, they are more than sufficient for maintaining a list of stored goods.

"Rotoom, please wait a moment."

Upon receiving the order, Rotom immediately entered a small robot with mechanical arms nearby and brought out Enma and Ame no Habakiri from their respective positions.

It wasn't as exaggerated as Kaido had claimed that the swords were covered in dust; Rotom cleaned the place every day, and they are even capable of maintaining swords.

"Rotoom, my lord, I've brought what you requested. Is there anything else you need, Rotoom?"

"No, thanks, continue your work."

Then, he used his powers to take over Enma and Ame no Habakiri, and the power of Iron Plate flowed into the two swords, injecting them with new life.

There was no significant change in the overall appearance of the two swords, but at the positions of the hilt guards, a single eye had appeared on each. The two swords that were floating in the sky due to Arceus began to float on their own.

Honedge-Enma, Honedge-Ame no Habakiri.

Compared to Seastone-form Rock-type Pokémon, these two seemed more like unique individuals that were hard to replicate. However, there seemed to be a problem child among these Pokémon.

Enma was quite lively right after its birth and didn't seem very obedient. However, when Arceus' imposing presence pressure swept over it, it lost its arrogance completely. That was the irresistible aura emanating from its creator.

Unless Arceus went into a berserk state of destroying the world, it had absolute control over its original creations, not weaker than Charlotte Linlin's control over Homies.

Once, they belonged to Kozuki Oden, but for swords, the holder isn't absolute. With Kozuki Oden's death, they have found new arrangements.

The purpose of creating two Honedge was to free King, who serves as the Shogun's Attaché, and provide him with two dependable assistants.

Honedge can absorb human life, but it is controllable. For them, souls are a supplement, not a necessity. This can be suppressed under command. Poffin and Berries that are loved by Steel-type and Ghost-type Pokémon can be used as substitutes.

And if worst came to worst, there were still death row criminals and Charlotte Linlin around. Obtaining some extracted souls from her, given their current relationship, wasn't difficult. Such things were a special tax in Totto Land.

Honedge's appearance was marked by a unique ceremony in Wano Country, boosting Kaido's reputation. The protector of the nation, Wise King Kaido, found Kozuki Oden's lost weapons and handed them over to the current Shogun, Kozuki Hiyori.

However, Kozuki Hiyori didn't have talent for swordsmanship. She couldn't use the Honedge incarnations of Enma and Ame no Habakiri, so they were just placed on a stand in the Shogun's room.

Ghost-type Pokémon come in two varieties, one unable to stand loneliness and always inclined to mischief, while the other is highly patient. These two Honedge belonged to the latter category, so they remained in the room as a special backup.

These two swords evoked deep feelings in many people, especially the three remaining retainers of Oden. They had many thoughts as they looked at their former lord's weapons. However, they hadn't expected that the Beasts Pirates would entrust the weapons to Kozuki Hiyori.

Even Kikunojo's request to teach Kozuki Hiyori martial arts was approved. In King's eyes, they can't possibly stir up any significant trouble.

And in a place they hadn't noticed, Enma and Ame no Habakiri also opened their own eyes. While Kozuki Hiyori was learning, they were absorbing the skills being passed down.

At this moment, the multi-talented Queen's favorite time arrived, the time to harvest bananas. Although the bananas looked like trees, they were actually herbaceous plants. When it was time for harvesting, the original plants could be cut down, and new ones would grow.

The maturity period for Tropius' improved bananas was half a year, and thanks to staggered planting, there are nearly continuous harvests of fresh bananas. The island's climate perfectly suited the conditions needed for their growth.

Queen excitedly made his way to his plantation. The plants here weren't of the type that can be planted on large-scale but rather new breeds he was nurturing. However, when he arrived, an ominous feeling overcame him as he spotted a line of footprints on the ground.
