As the waves churned, the ships and the warship passed each other, heading in different directions.
Ike.
Sengoku.
The two n also passed each other by, rely looking at each other quietly.
In their hearts, they held different yet similar thoughts.
"The future Marine Headquarters Admiral and Marine Headquarters Fleet Admiral." Ike murmured quietly in his heart, "He will be an extrely dangerous figure!"
"He wants to establish a nation as a pirate." Sengoku also thought secretly, "Taking both the black and white paths, what exactly are you trying to do? Edward Ike, you truly are a dangerous man!"
The two passed each other by.
The ships and the warship sped off in different directions, and everything seed to return to calm.
However.
This calm seed to be responding to sothing.
Of course.
Ike was inherently wary of Sengoku. The future Marine Headquarters Fleet Admiral and resourceful commander from the original story—there was no mistake in being cautious of him.
Twenty days later.
Ike finally brought his people back to the Totto Land sea area.
"Husband!"
Selina stood in the castle hall with the concubines, watching Ike. Her smile was gentle and proper, extrely mature and steady.
Ike nodded and said, "Selina."
The two smiled at each other. Everything was understood without words.
Of course!
Returning was only the beginning. Next, there were still many things that needed to be handled.
Settling the people they had brought back was only the start. After that, people still had to be arranged to continue sailing back to pick up the remaining people.
Ike had been away for three months. It was now already April.
A round trip required at least two months.
In other words.
Bringing back the remaining forty thousand people would probably take until the end of the year.
Of course.
This was not really a major issue. Ike's attitude toward this was very calm. These were all small problems and did not count for much.
Ike also continued learning about and managing all the issues within the Totto Land sea area. Under Selina's managent and handling, naturally, there would not be any problems. He only needed to briefly understand the current steps and know the specific situation. As for the rest, there was no need to consider too much.
"Mm~~~"
"Mm!"
"Good!"
Ike nodded and received docunt after docunt. Selina then asked gently, "Husband, during this recent period, this concubine found a suitable concubine candidate."
"A suitable concubine?" Ike asked curiously. "Who is it?"
"A mixed-blood child of the Mink Tribe and a human."
"A mixed-blood?"
"Yes!"
Listening to Selina's words, Ike was stunned for a mont, then nodded. Very soon, Selina had the young maids bring over an extrely adorable-looking girl.
She appeared very small and cute, with canine ears and a tail. Aside from that, however, she looked exactly like an ordinary human girl. She was extrely obedient and adorable, and truly looked very outstanding.
"Oh~~~"
Ike looked at this girl with interest and asked, "What is your na?"
"My lord!" She said very obediently, "My na is Kiyoyuki."
Ike thought briefly, then continued, "You are a mixed-blood of the Mink Tribe and humans?"
"Yes!" Kiyoyuki said very obediently. "My father was a canine Mink. When he was young, he was forced to leave Zou and drifted into the human world. Later! He t my mother, and after giving birth to , they died because of persecution from nobles. After that, I began wandering until I was saved by Elder Sister."
"Are there no problems?" Ike looked at Selina and asked calmly. Without waiting for Selina to answer, he continued, "As long as there are no issues, then it is fine."
"Alright, Husband."
Selina smiled, and with the sa tacit understanding, she did not answer Ike's question. After all! As husband and wife, if they did not even have such ability, that would be the truly strange thing.
Kiyoyuki absolutely had no problems. This was Selina's confidence.
"Right!" Ike thought briefly and said, "You already know about Amatsuki Toki, Selina, right?"
"This concubine knows."
"Hehehe~~~"
Selina smiled softly and said, "Husband, this concubine will handle it. That younger sister's personality needs to be properly dealt with."
Ike nodded and said, "Go handle it. If she agrees, then keep her. If she does not agree? Then have soone deal with her! Rember, you must confirm that this woman has been dealt with. As the Ti-Ti Fruit user, she is very likely to continue traveling through ti."
"Alright." Selina smiled and nodded. "Husband, this concubine will go handle this matter first."
"Mm!"
Ike nodded, and Selina left with Kiyoyuki.
"Kiyoyuki…" Ike looked at Kiyoyuki's back and thought, "A mixed-blood of the Mink Tribe and humans. Still, that is fine. She can also be considered a special race. Compared to normal humans, her talent should definitely be more outstanding."
Ike did indeed need to take concubines and have children. After all, his System was the Many Children, Many Blessings System. The problem was, although his System was the Many Children, Many Blessings System, ordinary won no longer had any aning for him.
Sally, Sharon, Mureen, Lorelei, Wynn, Donna, Cindy, Betty, Emma, Claire, and Carla.
These were his eleven normal concubines. They were all human, all princesses of fallen kingdoms, and all beauties above ninety-five points in appearance.
Of course.
There was not much to discuss about these. To him, they had all undergone the transformation of his Life Energy. Through continuous transformation, they gradually caught up with his Life Energy, allowing them to beco pregnant again. But if he took an ordinary woman as a concubine now…
Ike roughly estimated that if he wanted to transform an ordinary woman through Life Energy until she could accommodate him, it would take at least three to five years. There was no need. There was truly no need. Ike felt it was unnecessary.
So.
Aside from won with special identities like Kurozumi Yuka, true 100-point beauties like Amatsuki Toki, or people of special races like Kiyoyuki, Ike truly had no interest in ordinary won.
It had no aning!
"Phew~~~"
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Ike stopped thinking about this matter and continued quietly handling the work before him. There was a lot of work.
Although.
He had told Selina that she could handle things however she liked, and that she could deal with any work, Selina still obediently left many important matters untouched. That was because Selina also knew that if she handled those matters casually, it would not be good.
Ike was also very satisfied with this. Of course, he did not an to say one thing and do another. Rather, Selina understood when to advance and when to retreat, and knew how she should handle everything.
"Father!"
"Father!"
While Ike was still handling matters, the door to the study was pushed open. His eldest daughter brought his twelfth son, along with his eldest and second sons, rushing into the study.
"Father!"
Gawain, Agravain, and Acnologia, his three sons, all appeared extrely obedient, while his eldest daughter strode straight up to him.
"Heeheehee~~~"
"Father!"
Artoria looked at Ike with a grin. Ike picked Artoria up, then raised his head and said gently, "Gawain, Agravain, Aku, you three sit down as well! Tell , you four little fellows, why did you co looking for ?"
Ike knew very well that these children of his were especially wild. Normally, they would not co looking for him.
It was not because of anything else. They felt their father was very dignified, so most of the ti, they would go look for their eldest sister instead.
Now.
His three oldest children and Aku, whose talent was second best, had co together. He guessed there must be sothing.
"Father!" Artoria smiled brightly and said obediently, "In another two months, Seventh Brother will be celebrating his birthday."
"Nimaiya Ōetsu…"
Ike nodded and said, "That's right! June 28th is Ōetsu's birthday."
Although Ike seed like he usually did not care much about his children, in reality, he had already arranged everything properly for them. There was no need for him to manage too much more, and he also had many other things to handle.
However!
He rembered every child's birthday in his heart. This was not strange.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Artoria nodded repeatedly and said obediently, "Father, I want to prepare a grand birthday party for Seventh Brother."
"Why did you suddenly think of that?" Ike looked at Artoria gently and asked, "Is it because soone bullied Ōetsu?"
"No!"
"No!"
Gawain and Agravain shook their heads repeatedly. Gawain said obediently, "Father, no one bullied Seventh Brother. It's just! Seventh Brother doesn't seem very good at many things, so a lot of the ti, Seventh Brother isn't especially happy. We hope Seventh Brother won't be unhappy. We are all brothers and sisters, and we don't want Seventh Brother to be unhappy."
"Hehehe~~~"
Listening to Artoria and Gawain's words, Ike chuckled and shook his head, yet nodded as well. "You children! This was originally a good thing. Did you think I would not agree?"
"Heeheehee~~~"
"Hmph!"
Acnologia snorted arrogantly, looking bold despite his childish face. "You just didn't believe . I already said Father would definitely allow it!"
Ike rely shook his head and continued, "Moreover! You actually forgot one core point. Ōetsu's talent is not good. I know this."
"Mm~~~"
After all!
The four children listened obediently. Naturally, they had noticed that their younger brother, or older brother, did not have good talent.
Aside from the children born last year, the children at ho were already two or three years old. Under the example of their eldest sister Artoria, they had also been asked by their mothers to study. Of course, the study workload was not especially heavy, and with their outstanding talents, they studied very well.
But only Ōetsu seed incapable of doing anything. He was also very smart, but this kind of intelligence could only compare to ordinary people. Compared to his brothers and sisters, the gap was especially large.
However.
Selina had seriously warned each of her younger sisters and instructed every child that the family must remain united and stable. There must not be any problems between brothers and sisters.
"So!" Ike smiled and said, "Do you truly understand where Ōetsu, your seventh brother's talent, is actually most outstanding?"
Hearing their father's words, the four little ones all fell silent.
However.
Acnologia only moved his brain slightly before lying down on the sofa and slacking off. Thinking was not suitable for him. He was better suited to acting directly.
Ike rely smiled and had no other thoughts. Children were like this. Every child had areas they were good at. All-rounders were very rare, and Acnologia was clearly like his big brother, suited to taking action rather than using his brain.
"Forging?" Agravain thought briefly and said obediently, "Father, I've seen Seventh Brother secretly run over to the craftsn who forge weapons many tis to watch."
"Not bad."
Ike smiled and said, "Agravain, you observe very carefully. That is Seventh Brother's talent. Go bring the lt-lt Fruit from the treasure vault!"
"Yes!"
The young maid serving at the side imdiately withdrew respectfully.
Very soon.
The lt-lt Fruit they had obtained in the past was delivered.
Ike handed this Devil Fruit to Artoria and continued, "This Devil Fruit is the Paracia lt-lt Fruit, and it is also the ability most suited to Seventh Brother. Gawain, Agravain, you two are older brothers. Lily, you are the eldest sister. I will leave this banquet to you."
"There are still two months."
"Also."
"Rember! I brought back many outstanding craftsn and swordsmiths from Wano Country. Go find them. Go on. You can try and see whether you can do it."
"Okay!"
"Father!"
Artoria was extrely confident. She brought her three younger brothers and ran off. Of course, before leaving, she also took the lt-lt Fruit with her.
"Hehehe~~~"
Ike rely chuckled and shook his head. There was nothing much to say. Naturally, he had already arranged most of this matter. However, since his children had discovered it, then he would leave it to them to handle. Ike believed that his children could handle it very well.
Artoria, Gawain, and Agravain brought Acnologia along. Aside from the younger brothers and sisters still in swaddling clothes who understood nothing, they contacted all the younger brothers and sisters who were already two or three years old.
Then.
They brought their younger siblings and began directing their young maids to prepare the birthday banquet. Although it was two months early, two months would pass in the blink of an eye.
Of course, all of this had to be hidden from Seventh Brother Ōetsu. Otherwise, if he found out, the surprise would no longer be a surprise.
Ike naturally watched the bustle with a smile, while the wives and concubines led by Selina were also full of smiles. Kurozumi Yuka, in particular, almost seed to have gone mad. Was this family? Was this family? For Kurozumi Yuka, she truly went mad. This was the family she had always dread of!
It was worth ntioning.
Four or five days after his daughter and sons began making preparations, under Ike's extrely curious gaze, Selina stated that Amatsuki Toki would now obediently listen.
Seriously!
Ike was truly dumbfounded. Why? What exactly had she said? What had they talked about?
"Hehehe~~~"
"Husband, you should not ask. This is a secret between won!"
Ike could not help asking, but this was Selina's original reply to him. Of course, he was not the kind of person who insisted on digging to the bottom of things, so this matter passed just like that.
However!
Since Amatsuki Toki was now obedient.
Then, naturally, she beca his concubine.
Kozuki Toki and Kiyoyuki.
After their respective weddings were held, they both beca his concubines.
This matter temporarily ca to an end. The entire Totto Land sea area returned to calm, aside from the little fellows who were secretly plotting and preparing the birthday banquet. Ike also waited quietly.
Because!
According to the examination, the baby in Snake Princess' womb had already developed more or less completely and should be born during this period. However! Aside from the baby's developnt, whether the child inside was a boy, a girl, twins, or anything else could not be checked at all.
That was not important. After all, it was not a major problem. As long as the person was safe, that was the best thing.
Ike did not want anything to happen to Snake Princess. After all, he was not a heartless madman.
