One Piece: Chosen by the Sea Strongest Swordsman Chapter 153 - 153

The reason El had been eager to go to Onigashima and finalize the alliance with Kaido was, in fact, for this Millet-Millet Fruit. Bewitching Yamato was rely a spontaneous thought.

So it didn't really matter whether he could recruit her. If Yamato was genuinely bewitched by him and removed the bomb handcuffs she had worn for over a decade to follow him and escape Onigashima, then that would be an additional gain.

If Yamato still couldn't make up her mind to go to sea and remained waiting for a chance to liberate Wano, it didn't matter either—he lost nothing either way.

Thus, this trip to Onigashima and Wano could be said to have been imnsely rewarding for El.

When Tama grew a bit older and ate the Millet-Millet Fruit, combined with Carina's Munch-Munch Fruit and monstrous physique, Tama could instantly produce a massive quantity of dumplings.

As long as ten to a hundred Sea Kings in the New World, Paradise, the Four Seas, or even the Calm Belt ate dumplings each day, then Tama could control 3,650 to 36,500 Sea Kings in a single year.

If they were lucky—if hundreds to thousands of Sea Kings could eat dumplings daily—then Tama could control tens of thousands or even one hundred thousand Sea Kings in a year.

At that rate, within just a few years, the marine creatures Tama could command would number at least in the hundreds of thousands.

In this way, Tama would be no different from Poseidon, one of the Three Ancient Weapons.

When El had the chance to go to Fishman Island, rescue Shirahoshi, and bring her back to the Island of Dreams, then the Flying Pirates would effectively possess two Ancient Weapons. Combined with El's Float-Float Fruit ability, they would completely dominate both sky and sea.

Three days later, Pegasus and the floating island finally reunited with the Island of Dreams.

Over the past three days, Tama—who had initially been afraid of her new surroundings—had co to feel the care and love of those around her. She was no longer close only to Carina, who had adopted her from Amigasa Village; she had also grown attached to Nami, Kuina, and El.

Especially to El. On the night they left Wano, El had already used his ability—just as he had when recruiting Carina and Nami back then. In less than a day, he had gained Tama's favor and received a hug from her.

Under El's gentle and sincere approach, Tama quickly fell for him. The next day, she had already taken the initiative to ask El for a hug.

On the third day—the day of returning to the Island of Dreams—Tama was already glued to El's arms, refusing to leave.

To make her happy, El had even left Pegasus with her in his arms, flying freely through the sky.

Watching Tama, who seed closer to El than to her, Carina—who felt a sibling bond with Tama—couldn't help but puff out her cheeks in jealousy.

However, this jealousy soon disappeared after returning to the Island of Dreams.

It wasn't that Carina had gotten over it—it was that she discovered her beloved Tama had been completely overwheld by another person. That person was Nico Robin.

When it ca to cute animals and children, Robin had zero resistance. Seeing El bring back a little girl who had just turned one not long ago, Robin's "motherly love" imdiately overflowed. The tenderness that both Carina and El found embarrassing soon reached Tama, who had been lacking maternal love.

In response, El decisively handed over the task of caring for Tama to Robin, who usually had little to do.

Perona, who also had nothing to do on weekdays, joined in as well. El, Carina, and Nami, on the other hand, continued planning the Sky City in their minds.

As for Kuina, she had no interest in taking care of children or planning and building the sky city.

After settling her own affairs, Kuina went alone to other floating islands to practice her swordsmanship and develop her Devil Fruit ability.

In Kuina, El vaguely saw the shadow of Mihawk. Of course, this shadow wasn't in Kuina's swordsmanship, but in her character and temperant, which were more similar to Mihawk.

It wasn't that she had grown colder—it was more accurate to say she had beco more engrossed in swordsmanship. Apart from El, she had little interest in other things.

This ntality propelled Kuina's swordsmanship and strength forward by leaps and bounds.

Whether it was Haki or the Breath of All Things, both had reached top-tier levels compared to the New World.

Especially her unbelievable speed with sword slashes—even El needed to focus his perception to catch a trace of her strike.

If it weren't for El's ability to read minds and the ultimate control granted by Life Return (Seii Kikan), it would be difficult to block her slashes, for the speed of her sword was truly outrageous.

Even without entering Asura form, Kuina's current strength was already at the level of an Emperor's deputy commander.

Because of the incomprehensible nature of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, no matter which deputy commander it was—including Benn Beckman, who had not yet beco deputy commander of one of the Emperors of the Sea—it would be extrely difficult for them to defeat Kuina.

The reason the three girls were called the "Worst Devil Fruit Users in History" was precisely because of Kuina's Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

Nami's Fla-Fla Fruit and Carina's Munch-Munch Fruit complented Kuina's strength, elevating her to the level of an Admiral—even enabling her to fight to a draw with ti. Against any Pirate Emperor, she would not be defeated in a short period.

At this rate of progress, in a few more years—when Kuina's Breath of All Things reached the peak level of a master swordsman—El believed that even without using Asura form, she would stand at the level of an Emperor of the Sea.

At that ti, once she entered Asura form with Carina and Nami, her strength would surpass anyone, including the Emperors of the Sea.

It was only a matter of ti before she beca the strongest deputy commander in history.

—

One week later, just as El and the others were busy, sothing happened on Onigashima after Kaido left the island for an unknown destination.

"Pere pere pere pere."

After Kaido changed back into human form, a sudden sound ca from the Den Den Mushi he was carrying. When the Den Den Mushi connected, a ssage from the opposite side made his face turn ugly.
