*Title Hidden*

Shandians had long been awakened by the sounds of battle. Under the chief's summons, the entire tribe gathered together. Even the newly born children of the tribe got to see the other divine envoy on the totem pole.

Overall, nothing major happened, but the Shandians still maintain some of their outdated customs. Due to Noland's arrival hundreds of years ago, the Shandians abolished cruel practices such as live sacrifices, but some customs were preserved.

For example, having the young girls of the tribe accompany the divine envoy. When the chief suggested this, Zeraora left the Shandia tribe at lightning speed. After chatting with Serperior for a while, Zeraora returned to Onigashima.

Thanks to Enel, after the battle, Zeraora not only didn't feel tired but also felt refreshed. Due to the vast difference in strength, Zeraora was still at full health and energy after solo-killing the enemy, making uninformed spectators suspect that it was a staged fight.

....

At this time, in Wano Country, Kuri, Zeraora's home.

Compared to the simple small house back then, it had been expanded into a detached villa.

Originally, Zeraora and Setsuna had no intention of expanding, but the number of people living here kept increasing.

Setsuna's parents and sister, the adopted Perona, the attendant Bewear and Bepo, and Hitsugisukan who occasionally comes over and shamelessly sticks around, plus two newly born children.

Sometimes there would be guests from Zou Island, Yamato visiting, and subordinates coming to hand over missions.

The original small house could no longer meet their needs, and a new house became a necessity for their future life.

Thus, a more functional house was created.

In addition to separate bedrooms and storage rooms, guest rooms, a separate studio, and a larger basement were added.

Perona's only request was a dark room. She even insisted on living in the basement for more darkness.

At this moment, Setsuna was outside on the lawn exchanging tips with Maria.

Maria didn't have children and wasn't married yet, but as she aged, she increasingly began to show motherly traits. Unlike Charlotte Linlin, who only periodically showed love for children, Maria was like this with kids most of the time.

Zeraora and Setsuna were among the few people Maria knew who already have children.

"Wolff, Meowna! You two, get down here!"

Setsuna had gone out to get something, and upon returning, saw that the two children had climbed up Maria and were hanging from her horns on either side, seemingly curious.

The two children were two and a half years old, becoming more lively with age, or in other words, naughty.

"It's okay, Sister Setsuna. Let them play if they like it. They're not heavy anyway."

To Maria, the two little ones were like plush toys. Even if they climbed all over her head, she wouldn't feel much.

"That's not the point. These two are getting bolder. Last time Lord Arceus visited, they climbed right onto him. If we don't control them, they might get even more out of hand."

Setsuna then recounted the siblings' past heroic deeds. They were at an age where they feared nothing, and combined with the Mink's naturally active nature, they dared to grab anyone who visits.

Wolff is the big brother, and Meowna is the younger sister. The naming process wasn't complicated; it followed the Mink's customs. The brother was named such because he resembles a white wolf, while the sister was named such because she was late in learning to speak and would always make similar sounds.

Under Setsuna's scolding, Meowna climbed down first, while Wolff hesitated a bit before getting down.

"Didn't I tell you? Be polite to guests, or I'll confiscate your gifts when Zeraora returns."

"But…Sister Maria told us to climb up…"

"Exactly, it's not our fault. Mom, you can't do this!"

The siblings protested, but Setsuna responded by vigorously rubbing their heads.

"That's still no excuse. You need to follow rules. This behavior is wrong. Zou Island will come near Wano Country in a few days. Do you still want to go and play?"

"Alright, Setsuna. You were much more wild at their age. I think they've inherited your personality. Take your time teaching them. They're still young, there's plenty of time. Now, it's time to eat."

Rin and Hachi, who had gone out, returned and overheard Setsuna lecturing her children.

They didn't intend to interfere with their daughter's family education, just didn't want to waste time.

After Wolff and Meowna promised not to do it again, Setsuna placed them in specially made children's chairs.

These chairs were modified Rotom Cradles. As they grew older, the cradle's functions gradually changed.

From a cradle to a walker, and now to the current safety seat, these have been the most noticeable changes. Maria was also invited to stay for dinner.

Due to her height, Maria found it inconvenient to enter Zeraora's house. Even though the rooms were built slightly larger, she had to bend to get in.

...

"Mom, mom, when is dad coming back? He's been gone for so long, it's been... over a dozen days…"

Meowna counted on her fingers but couldn't give an exact number.

"Soon. Dad went to work. After defeating the enemy, he'll come back quickly and bring you gifts from there."

Zeraora had called Setsuna after the battle. Based on the distance, he'd return in a few days. There were no urgent matters, so she told him to handle other islands' affairs on the way back.

They had taken enough time off. They can't feel at ease if they keep doing nothing.

Seeing the happy family, Maria had a loving indulgent smile on her face. Just as she picked up her teacup, Yamato suddenly ran over anxiously.

"Maria! Do you have time? Something big happened!"

"Hm? What's the matter? Need help? I'm free."

"Then come with me. I just called Jack. Let's go now."

"Wait, what's the matter?"

"It's the Flying Taxi. Taxi No. 28 didn't return today, and we lost contact with the Corviknight. There's been no trace of it on several islands along the way. I think Dad is getting a bit angry. Let's go find it."

The Corviknight taxi had been operating for over a year without issues. But this time, not only did the passengers not reach their destination, Corviknight also disappeared.

Pokemon created by Arceus wouldn't betray him without any reason. The only possibility was an accident.
