"Ahhhhh—so unfair! So unfair, ow! Why is it that Klee never gets to run into sothing this fun, ow?! Klee also wants to et another Klee! Brother Sherwin is playing favorites, ow!"
(=`=)
When she had t Sanji ow before, the little ragdoll had already been extrely envious of him.
But back then it was just a single example. Now that another Kaido ow had appeared, the imbalance in her heart imdiately exploded.
Watching Klee ow already starting to roll and spiral on the ground while throwing a tantrum, Sherwin sighed helplessly and lifted his foot, planning to step forward and coax the little one.
However, Kaido ow beside him bent down first, scooped the little ragdoll up in one motion, licked her small head a few tis, and then placed her onto her own shoulder.
"Didn’t you say before that the one who has the sa na as and looks a lot like is a big bad guy, ow? What if the Klee you run into is also an annoying bad kid? Anyway, I don’t really want to see a bad version of myself, ow."
Kaido ow gently stroked Klee ow head and said softly.
"Hmph hmph~ Then Klee will spank her butt, and lock her in the confinent room so she becos a good kid, ow!"
(=`3=)
The little ragdoll waved her tiny paws and puffed out her cheeks as she spoke.
"Is that so? Klee is really amazing, and very sensible too, ow."
"Ehehe~"
(=`=)
Having been praised, Klee ow scratched the back of her head, and in an instant forgot all the unhappiness from before.
Holy crap?!
Sherwin was stunned.
Soothing an upset Klee ow wasn’t really a big deal—the little ragdoll was easy to placate. Most of the ti, even if you ignored her, she would fuss for a bit and then calm down on her own.
The problem was that the way Kaido ow had coaxed Klee ow was basically the sa as what Sherwin had been planning to say.
And moreover...
You’re Kaido, damn it! Even if your personality is quite different from the original, isn’t being this good at soothing kids a bit too weird?! Just look at Yamato, that "unfilial child," and you’ll know how terribly Kaido handled the whole parent–child relationship.
Although he was a little shocked, Sherwin was actually quite happy about it.
As the number of little furballs on the ship kept increasing, he and Huai ow had long wanted to summon an Felynes who could help share their workload.
He just hadn’t expected that role to end up falling on Kaido ow.
Sherwin subconsciously looked toward Huai ow. At that mont, Huai also happened to look over as if by tacit understanding, her big eyes sparkling with relief and excitent...
Clearly, she was thinking the sa thing as Sherwin.
After Klee ow finally settled down, Sherwin and the others returned to their earlier topic.
"...That roughly how things stand. The other Kaido isn’t just extrely strong on a personal level—his power and influence are also nothing to scoff at.
Although he hasn’t co looking for trouble for now because of the restraint imposed by the other two Emperors, sooner or later, we’re still going to have to face him."
Sherwin carefully explained in detail to Kaido ow the grudge between them and Kaido, as well as the other party situation.
"Mm, that big wa—... ahwu... that bad Kaido is really strong, ow. Even Klee ow bombs couldn’t do anything to him at all, and it looks like Brother Sherwin can’t beat him either, ow."
(=ˇˇ=)
The little ragdoll that had already scampered back onto Sherwin shoulder echoed along.
Out of consideration for Kaido ow feelings, Klee ow, the little angel, thoughtfully swallowed back the contemptuous nickna she had used for Kaido before.
"My sword couldn’t harm him at all either, ow. His body is harder than a rock-armored wyvern, ow."
Seijuro ow, in order to prove that it wasn’t simply because his own strength was lacking, drew his blade and swung out a crescent-moon slash, cutting a rock not far away cleanly into two halves.
(=益)
Link ow, whose signature shield parry had been broken by Kaido, also expressed Kaido terror with an unhappy face.
"The four strongest pirates in this world, and the creature acknowledged as the strongest in a one-on-one fight, ow?"
After understanding all of this, Kaido ow instead looked eager to try, "owro ro ro! Looks like that other has done pretty well. I’m rather looking forward to eting him in the future, ow."
Sure enough, even though their personalities were vastly different, when it ca to loving battle, the two Kaidos weren’t all that different.
Only that...
"If you want to fight the other Kaido, relying solely on the Hunter world combat system won’t be enough... In this world, there is a kind of power called Haki. Without mastering it, it basically impossible to deal any real damage to Kaido..."
Sherwin stepped forward and scratched Kaido ow chin. While the other party let out comfortable purring sounds, he also introduced him to the power system unique to the pirate world.
As he spoke, he demonstrated Armant Haki to Kaido ow, and had Huai ow release Conqueror Haki as well. Observation Haki wasn’t easy to demonstrate, so it was explained only verbally.
"An interesting power, ow."
Kaido ow was not only gentle in temperant, but also not as impatient as his prototype. He patiently listened to Sherwin explanation and watched the demonstrations by him and Huai ow.
And then...
Just as expected, like Seijuro ow, he almost instantly grasped Armant Haki.
Sherwin remained calm about this. He was already used to it.
Or rather, if Kaido ow hadn’t managed to master Armant Haki so quickly, that would have surprised him.
As for Observation Haki and Conqueror Haki, Kaido ow didn’t learn them quite as fast.
After all, compared to Armant Haki, which could basically awaken as long as one physique was sufficient, Observation Haki and Conqueror Haki were much more reliant on the mind.
"Besides the power of Haki, this world also has a very special kind of power, which is the Devil Fruit I ntioned before."
After Kaido ow finished his attempts, Sherwin took out the Sakura Dragon Fruit.
"This is an artificial Devil Fruit copied by the greatest scientist in this world based on Kaido Devil Fruit ability, and it also the dium I used to summon you..."
After Sherwin explained to Kaido ow the rules they had set and the specific abilities of the Sakura Dragon Fruit, he continued,
"As a dium to summon you, it should be the most suitable fruit for you. And the other Kaido has already developed the Azure Dragon Fruit to a very high level. As for whether you want to eat it or not, the choice is yours."
Considering that Kaido ow might feel that eating the Sakura Dragon Fruit ant imitating the other Kaido, Sherwin only gave a brief reminder.
"An ability that lets turn into a dragon, huh?" However, Kaido ow didn’t seem to have any such concerns.
After staring at the Sakura Dragon Fruit in Sherwin hand for a few seconds, he decisively took it and said with a smile,
"I’ve hunted so many dragons before—never thought I’d have a chance to beco one myself... What an interesting and novel experience, ow."
As he spoke, he brought the apple covered in circular patterns to his mouth and took a big bite.
"Mm... as expected, it tastes awful, ow."
Unlike the cats who had eaten Devil Fruits before, after taking a bite of the Devil Fruit, Kaido ow only frowned slightly and remained very calm.
This made Haibara ow, who had deliberately researched the taste of Devil Fruits, extrely surprised.
"Could it be that artificial Devil Fruits taste different from the original ones, ow? Hurry and give the rest of the fruit to take a look! I need to take it back and study it properly, ow!"
The little kitten, suddenly fired up, leapt swiftly from Sherwin shoulder onto Kaido ow, pawing at the lion-like mane around his neck as she urged him on.
"Be careful, this thing really tastes awful, ow."
Kaido ow cooperatively handed over the remaining Sakura Dragon Fruit and kindly reminded her.
"I’ve eaten an original Devil Fruit before, ow!"
Haibara ow replied as she spoke, while glaring viciously at the culprit who had made her eat a Devil Fruit back then.
Then she broke off a small piece from the Sakura Dragon Fruit. Holding it in front of herself, she hesitated for quite a while before springing back onto Sherwin shoulder and poking it straight toward his mouth.
"You taste it and then tell what kind of flavor it is, ow!"
The little kitten ordered with perfect confidence.
Sherwin: "..."
Annoyed, Sherwin flicked the little troublemaker on the forehead, but still cooperated by biting the small piece of the Sakura Dragon Fruit from Haibara ow paw.
"Mm..."
After cautiously chewing a couple of bites and swallowing them, Sherwin frowned, smacked his lips, and said,
"It really hard to eat, but compared to the original fruit, it still worse—and it even more incomparable to your Satan potion..."
Then he smacked his lips again and said with an uncertain expression, "And it doesn’t seem to have that kind of ’conceptual unpleasantnes the original has... um... it a bit complicated to explain. Anyway, it a very different kind of bad from the original."
"Is that so, ow?"
Having her curiosity piqued, Haibara ow decisively broke off another piece and stuffed it into her own mouth...
"Blegh—! Isn’t this taste exactly the sa, ow?!! Sherwin, you idiot, you tricked again, ow!!!"
