APJ Chapter 547 Purchasing Luck

Queen returned to his laboratory by himself. Nowadays, threatening him wasn’t as easy for Yamato as it used to be. Such battles were like extra training for him.

“Larvitarrr…”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. One day, we will defeat Uncle Queen. If we can’t even defeat him, then we can forget about defeating that crazy old man.”

Kaido loomed over her like a mountain, a goal she constantly strived to surpass.

“Larvitarrr?”

“Hmm? Why did they arrive so quickly today?”

Larvitar had just pointed in another direction, where Solitaire, Speed, and Mizerka were approaching while pulling a cart containing residues of Seastone, Larvitar’s dinner.

Through a contest of strength, the three of them naturally became Yamato’s followers, helping her deal with some issues in her life, although these issues were generally unrelated to combat.

Currently, Yamato wasn’t fighting enemies outside; she didn’t need them on Onigashima.

These three were content with their current positions. Yamato was easy to get along with, who was without any airs. Although Kaido implied that these three were just subordinates, for her, they were default companions.

“Oni Princess, we’re here.”

“Chanseeeey~~”

A Chansey also hopped down from behind. Strictly speaking, these Chanseys didn’t look any different, but only those who have spent time with them could tell them apart by their ears.

However, Yamato was different. She could distinguish each Chansey clearly. This Chansey was the current leader of the Chanseys in Wano Country; it was the one that had taken a bullet for Yamato back then.

Following behind Chansey was the Pokémon Center’s exclusive medical team. After every battle, they conducted check-ups to ensure there were no hidden injuries.

Having minor injuries when young wasn’t a big deal, but as one aged, accumulated hidden injuries could erupt out, old Whitebeard being an example.

Solitaire, Speed, and Mizerka were feeding Larvitar and touching its horn. Over time, Larvitar had grown accustomed to them and didn’t dislike them.

However, besides Yamato, its favorite was still Diancie, which could conjure candies anytime like it has a 4D Pocket.

“Chanseeeey~!”

“I know, I know. I’m fine. Uncle Queen knows his limits; there’s no need to worry.”

Seeing that Yamato wasn’t complying with the check-up, Chansey gave a warning look, though it looked rather cute.

Later, she received some different news from Chansey, like Arceus has left Wano Country again and Kaido acting mysterious, busy with something.

Hearing this, Yamato suddenly had a bad feeling. Whatever Kaido was planning, it probably wouldn’t be good for her.

Over the past few months, the seas have remained relatively calm, with nothing big happening. The aftermath of the battle between Kaido and Whitebeard has also largely settled. Here, “settled” refers to the 3 Emperors of the Sea once again ceasing hostilities, and everything returning to its previous state.

Regarding territories, initially, Charlotte Linlin took advantage of Whitebeard’s exhaustion and seized some territories. Due to his weakened state, Whitebeard didn’t immediately engage in full-scale war upon reaching the area; he merely launched probing attacks and then began recuperating.

Afterward, Charlotte Linlin realized something. It wasn’t that Whitebeard had grown weaker with age; rather, the little boy she once looked after had matured and became even stronger than her.

In the end, Big Mom Pirates relinquished control of those islands. During the time they occupied them, they had plundered enough. Charlotte Linlin’s mood improved considerably, especially since Kaido owed her a big favor.

Faced with the changing seas, Charlotte Linlin’s decision was to continue having children to expand her family.

On the other hand, Whitebeard Pirates encountered quite a few troubles recently. After the big battle with Kaido, more challengers came knocking.

Many thought Whitebeard had grown weaker, but those people naturally met the end of getting sunk into the sea. Even if Whitebeard had really aged, they were still not someone who could challenge him.

“Teach, you’re quite badly injured.”

“I’m fine, I can’t let them tarnish Pops’ reputation.”

On Whitebeard’s ship, Marshall D. Teach, also known as Blackbeard, didn’t leave. He had no intention of switching sides. It’s well-known that Kaido is a Zoan-type maniac, and Teach had long set his own ambitious goals.

After so many years with the Whitebeard Pirates, he had no plans to switch sides. As long as the Dark-Dark Fruit didn’t appear, he would remain Whitebeard’s “good son.”

In the first half of the Grand Line, the impact of the great battle was minimal. At most, there was an increase of rookies. Meanwhile, on an ordinary island, Tesoro arrived with Baccarat, Tanaka, and some of his subordinates.

Stella had gone to Onigashima to report on this year’s new plan on his behalf. Now, everything was safely under control. He came here because he found some new information.

“Mr. Giovanni, we’re here.”

Pirates roamed the streets brazenly, while many masked individuals also mingled among them. Tesoro was no exception. Clearly, this was a trading point within the underground market.

In a place like this, Tesoro normally wouldn’t reveal his face or use his real name, instead using the Beasts Pirates’ internal code name. As for Baccarat and Tanaka, they didn’t need to be as cautious about their identities as Tesoro did.

“Alright, as usual, let’s first buy some necessities.”

The large gathering of Underworld was undoubtedly related to the upcoming auction. Tesoro had received news about a Devil Fruit, and since the auction was still some time away, he wanted to stock up on some luck.

During this period, Baccarat noticed something. If luck was voluntarily given to her by the other party, the luck brought by the Luck-Luck Fruit would be even stronger. Soon after, they arrived at the casino and erected their signboard.

【Purchasing Luck for 1 million Berries, limit one per person.】

Many people who had lost their fortunes were already present at the casino’s entrance. Once Tesoro put up his signboard, it attracted numerous gamblers.

At first they were just watching, but after seeing Baccarat just shake hands with someone and then take out a stack of Berry, they went crazy.

As for these people whose luck got taken away, unless they had a Devil Fruit like Baccarat’s, or were chosen ones, they shouldn’t even hope to win in the casino.
