Don't worry, I will take care of your wife and child

"Sayuri, do you remember where he is?"

"Yes."

"Then, show me the way."

White looked very emaciated, but he was over four meters tall, so it was a bit difficult for Riko to support him, and could only act as a human crutch.

Meanwhile, on the outside, Kaido had no intention of going with his subordinates to have fun. He was only observing the surrounding environment, such as the sword-wielding samurais outside the buildings. There were many of them, and they seemed much stronger than the average foot soldiers.

"It seems like a great place to recruit soldiers."

Just as he was thinking this, he heard an excited voice behind him.

"Kaido, you're Kaido, right?"

"Hmm? Who are you?"

"White, Blake White. Don't you remember? We were in the same squad back in the Vodka Kingdom. I was the military cook, and you used to really like the food I cooked."

White tried hard to mention some things, and finally managed to jog Kaido's memory.

"It's you. I remember the taste of your drunken beef. No one else could make it like you. What are you doing here?"

Kaido didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance from the Vodka Kingdom here, and he was curious about how he came here.

"It's a long story. It happened after you left."

"Left? Did that old ba*tard describe it like that? It doesn't fit his style."

"They said you defected, but no one believed it, because after you left, Vodka Kingdom couldn't obtain the participation right for Levely.

"Furthermore, after you left, Vodka Kingdom suffered a string of defeats in battle, and even allowed the enemy to counterattack and reach the capital. The old king himself ran away."

"Later, because we couldn't pay the heavenly tribute, Vodka Kingdom lost its status as an allied country and the joint efforts of the military had to ensure the security of the country. But, many people chose to go to sea, including myself. By the way, do you remember Weston? That guy made quite a name for himself after venturing outside."

White spoke a few names of old acquaintances, all of whom were Kaido's former comrades, and his relationship with Weston was even good.

"I remember, I saw him last year, but he refused to join me. But why are you in Wano Country?"

"Well, we were just doing small things at first, but later our ship encountered a disaster and everyone else died. Fortunately, I managed to survive and drifted to this location, and then I met Riko."

It has already been a few years since he came to Wano Country. At that time, many people from the Vodka Kingdom chose to go to sea, which was also somewhat related to Kaido. He was the strongest soldier of the kingdom back then, and many people idolized him.

After seeing Kaido's bounty, many people also took this path, but not everyone had Kaido's strength and luck.

Afterwards, White briefly recounted his experiences over the years to Kaido before finally getting to the main topic.

"My body won't last much longer, Kaido. Based on our past friendship, please take care of my wife and daughter for me. Her name is Riko, and this is my daughter Maria."

While speaking, White suddenly started gasping for breath. He used all his strength to just find Kaido and spoke about those things in one breath. Now that he was done speaking, his body was now struggling to hold on.

He wasn't afraid of death, but he was worried about what would happen to his wife and daughter after he died. That's why he dragged his seriously ill body to come here after hearing about Kaido.

Back then on the battlefield, Kaido was always the most reliable comrade, and White hoped Kaido would still remember their past friendship and take care of his wife and daughter.

He couldn't trust the locals of Wano Country. Because of the horn on his head, many people called him a monster back then, but only Riko didn't discriminate against him and even helped him treat the wounds he suffered during the shipwreck.

So, after finding Riko, he sold the treasures he had with him to redeem her and then lived here from then on.

"I understand. I will take care of them."

"Thank you." After getting Kaido's agreement, White suddenly went limp, seeming to have lost all his strength.

Originally, he was trying to hold on with his last breath because of his concern for his wife and daughter. Now that he had met Kaido and believed that he had found someone they could rely on, the pressure on his heart was lifted, and naturally, he couldn't hold on any longer.

Arceus was not here; he had already gone to the future Onigashima with some people, including Nightin, who had no interest in the Red-Light District.

Although Queen was here, he could tell that White had exhausted all his vitality, and is suffering from an incurable disease. There is no hope for him now, even with medicine.

"This is the Vodka Kingdom's liquor. I got it from Weston not long ago. Have a drink."

"It really tastes like home. Please, Kaido." In a foreign land, he preferred to believe in Kaido, who was once his comrade-in-arms, even if he was just a military cook.

"Don't worry, go in peace." This time, he did not receive a reply from White because he had already left this world.

"White! White!" Seeing White, who was now silent, Riko found it difficult to accept for a moment.

"Come with me. I promised White that I would take care of you all. Mandrell, if you don't want to leave, buy the shop where she lives. If you don't have enough money, have them go look for Orochi."

While everyone else went out to have fun, Mandrell didn't. He chose to stay by Kaido's side because Shayna and Zeraora were with Arceus. With those two around, it was impossible to fawn upon him, so Mandrell decided to stay by Kaido's side.

It is said that the Beast Pirates were planning to further differentiate the ranks of the officers, so he has to perform well.

WIth his abilities, he is already considered a low-level officer in the Beast Pirates, and after training, Magikarp's ability has given him a body with "bronze skin and iron bones." The characteristic of Magikarp's entire body being covered in hard scales and bones is clearly evident on his body.

Ordinary bullets couldn't hurt him, and even ordinary swordsmen can't. Only swordsmen who had mastered the ability to cut steel could harm him. In this regard, his ability was very similar to Mr. 1 Daz Bonez's Dice-Dice Fruit, except that he didn't have his strong attacking power.

He couldn't turn his arms into blades, so he mainly relied on his fists in battle. Although not weak, other people who had gained abilities were just as good as him, and Babanuki was even a strong competitor.

At times like these, he has to attract the attention of Kaido through other means.

At Kaido's request, he immediately led a few people and had Sayuri lead the way to the courtesan house, while Kaido was going to bury White's corpse and give him a final farewell.

Having set foot on the battlefield since he was 10 years old, he was already used to death. So White's death didn't make him sad. Anyway, he would fulfill his promise to take care of his wife and daughter, even if he ends up taking care of them a little too much.

[Author's Note: Maria's childhood appearance has already been revealed, and she had horns on her head at that time. So, I believe that her horns are natural rather than just decorations.]
