One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 167: My Motherly Sister Girlfriend
"Mr. Yatuo is really a young and promising man. I wonder if you..."

"Mr. Bakuka, there is no need to say more. I am still young and it is too early for me to get married. Moreover, my family has strict family education. As the eldest son, my mother has high requirements for my future wife."

"Hey, don't be so rigid, brother Yatuo. We have been partners for many years, and the total amount of business we handle is about to exceed 100 billion Baileys. Even though business is bleak now after the pacification of the North Sea, there are still many big business transactions every year.

I don't ask for much, brother. My little daughter has a bad temper. If it were someone else, I wouldn't trust her and would be more tolerant of her. But for our relationship, I don't ask for much from my wife. I just hope you can take good care of her."

“Brother Bakuka, don’t underestimate yourself. You are a prominent figure in the dark world. Which major force doesn’t know the reputation of the King of Arms?

My little sister deserves better. You are fully capable and powerful enough to find an obedient godson to take care of her. It would be too unfair for her to follow me. Don't mention this matter again!"

In the magnificent manor, Yatuo waved his hand and rejected the marriage proposal from Bakuka, the patriarch of the largest arms dealer family in the South China Sea, with his words in a tactful voice.

Such scenes have been played out countless times since his debut. Any power with some wealth would want to climb aboard the Nasdaq ship.

This is true even for Bakuka, the "King of Arms", one of the emperors of the dark world today. Although he has the title of emperor, the title alone is far from enough.

Which of the dark kings of today's era doesn't have some background and fighting ability? Almost all of them are inherited from their families. For example, the King of Shipping and the King of Warehousing are the titles of kings passed down from generation to generation.

They all have their own support, otherwise they would have been devoured by this cruel sea long ago. There are so many people who want their wealth!

The same is true for the new emperor Bakuka. He is now a huge fat sheep. If he had not maintained an annual supply relationship with Yatuo, he would have been attacked by some malicious guys.

After all, the arms business has always been difficult to do, and the control is very strict. How much money can you make from smuggling? This is not to mention the various "labor fees". If he can get 40% of the net profit, it will be a big profit.

The bulk of the orders are from the navy and small orders from member countries.

If Bakuka had not taken off with the help of Yatuo, he would have been just a gun seller in the South China Sea. He would not even be qualified to have an equal dialogue with the kings of the member states. How could he sit on the throne of "Emperor"?

In order to secure his throne, Bakuka needs to make progress!
The simplest and quickest opportunity among them is Ross's two unmarried sons, both of whom are old enough to get married and have children.

It is no coincidence that the marriage age at sea is generally low, only around sixteen to eighteen years old.

Firstly, the sea is dangerous and there are no entertainment activities. Ordinary people naturally get married early, not to mention the nobles. Those who understand will understand.

Secondly, this age is the most impulsive age for men on the sea, and many clichéd legends begin to be written at this age.

Since Yatuo turned sixteen, Bakuka has been trying to sell his daughter to him every time. He doesn't ask for a place in the family, but just wants her to be able to climb onto this branch.

According to the credo of the Nasdaq family, isn't it a done deal? His position as the dark emperor is definitely secure.

"Sorry to bother you, Master Yatuo. We have received news that a ship suspected to be the O'Hara archaeological fleet has been wrecked and has now been salvaged by our people. What do you think?"

Luo Er, who has grown to about four meters in height, is wearing a suit and three medals of different styles on his chest. Behind him, an exposed dragon tail sways from side to side, and his posture is upright.

Originally, he had been staying by Yatuo's side, fulfilling his duties as a bodyguard diligently, until Yatuo gave him a look, and then he used the news he had received not long ago as an excuse to get out of the predicament.

"I'm sorry, Brother Bakuka, I have to excuse myself first. My father has a history with O'Hara, and I can't just ignore this kind of thing as a trivial matter."

Yatuo bowed slightly with deep apology and said goodbye to Bakuka, who looked a little lost.

Bakuka did not stop the two from leaving, and the magnificent manor house seemed a little lonely.

Similarly, they dare not show any bad expressions, such as gloomy, resentful, etc.

Because he knew that he was not worthy of doing so in front of Yatuo, just like the lower nobles would never question the decisions made by the higher nobles in person.

At most you can complain a few words in private, and then live your life as usual.

What's more, Yatuo has a tough guy named Raw by his side. Even if he calls on all his troops now and uses guns and cannons, Raw can lead Yatuo to break through and bring him to his father Ross in good condition.

The consequence of all this was that Bakuka and his forces disappeared in the sea without any ripples.

Arriving at the outskirts of the manor, Yatuo, who was only two meters tall, took a breath, gave Luo Er a thumbs up and said:
"Thank you, Brother Luo Er. You always come to my rescue every time."

"It's my duty, Master Yatuo, and a woman who is involved in interests like this is not worthy of you."

Luo'er's expression was meticulous and his tone was calm, as if he was telling a fact. He had an upright posture and walked behind Yatuo like an old pine tree, giving people a full sense of security.

Yatuo waved his hand and said helplessly:

"Brother Luo Er, you can just call me Yatuo in private. But there's no need to be so absolute. If necessary, I am not against a marriage of convenience."

"Well, I believe Mr. Ross will be proud of you, but sometimes you don't need to wrong yourself. Mr. Ross is not that kind of person."

Hearing this, Luo Er nodded and said, his eyes full of admiration and recognition, he is worthy of being Mr. Ross's son, he has already realized it at such a young age.

Just like him, although he was not born in Nasdaq, he was raised in Nasdaq. He is willing to devote his whole life to Mr. Ross until he repays him for his upbringing.

However, this kindness is just like Yatuo's enlightenment. It will probably never end and will never need to be faced.

"But these guys are really something. They all use little girls of my age to seduce me without even doing any basic research. It's hard for me to accept the temptation."

While walking on the road, Yatuo suddenly said with a sense of loss.

He also wanted to accept the thirst-quenching coconut juice handed to him by these guys. After all, he was a man, a powerful man at that, and beauties were an indispensable part of his growth.

He also wanted to pass the so-called beauty test.

His father has married three beautiful wives, so how could he, as a son, not have any ideas?

"Oh?"

Luo Er looked puzzled. It was the first time he heard Yatuo bring up such a thing. Maybe he was annoyed? He wanted to find someone to talk to, and then "inadvertently" reveal it.

Luo Er was very willing to be that person. After several years of companionship and watching Yatuo grow up when he was a child, he had long regarded Yatuo as his own brother.

As an older brother, he must satisfy his younger brother's request! "Ahem, this matter is known only to heaven and earth, you and me. Brother Luo Er, please don't tell anyone else! Especially my father and mother..."

Yatuo said this somewhat shyly, just like every innocent boy when he first confesses that he likes a girl.

Luo Er did not reply, but smiled slightly, and everything was said without words.

Seeing Luo Er's expression, Yatuo knew that the other party had understood what he meant. He then restrained his expression a little, looked around to make sure that there was no one around, and then slowly said:
“Actually, I prefer older sisters. Those little girls have no butts and no breasts. What’s so good about them? Besides, they all look as difficult to please as my sister. They’re too troublesome!

I don't want to invite an ancestor home. With my father and mother's temperament, as long as those girls don't go too far, they will accept it. In the end, I will be the only one who suffers."

"Then why don't you look for little girls who develop earlier? There are girls like this. We have met many of them, and there are also those mermaids under the sea..."

Luo'er had an amused look on his face and saw through Yatuo's words at a glance. That was one aspect, but on the other hand, the shy Yatuo was too embarrassed to speak.

"Ahem, Brother Luo Er, this is for you..."

Yatuo clenched his fist and put it to his mouth, pretending to cough twice, then carefully took out a magazine from inside his clothes.

Luo Er reached out to take it, glanced at it twice and then paused, then looked at Yatuo with some uncertainty.

It seems to be saying: You are this kind of person? I never saw it before!

"Twenty-four-year-old sister next door, brother's world story, mother's story"

"Well, my dream is to marry a girl who is as gentle and considerate as my mother, preferably a little older than me."

Yatuo's voice was as thin as a mosquito's, his cheeks flushed, and then he looked at Luo Er with a questioning look, as if to say:

I've finished talking, isn't it your turn to reveal the truth?
Luo Er shook his head slightly and sighed. He didn't look at the magazine carefully. He folded it and returned it to Yatuo. Then he said:

"My requirements are not high. An ordinary girl is enough. If possible, I hope to save her life."

His words were full of regret, as if he was telling a story buried deep in his heart, which aroused Yatuo's curiosity.

But everyone has secrets that cannot be told to each other, and Yatuo did not want to explore them. Sometimes, it is best for friends to keep privacy with each other.

The two chatted as they walked, laughing happily from time to time, and soon arrived at the port area of ​​the island.

Two ships, one large and one small, were moored in a luxurious private port.

The larger six-masted sailing ship was plain in appearance and huge in size. There were many patrolling armed personnel on it. They were well-equipped and equipped with flintlock rifles. The Nasdaq family crest was printed on the canvas to show their identity.

The smaller one looked very shabby. It was just an ordinary three-masted sailing ship, but it was in tatters everywhere. It was obvious that it had experienced a hard battle and it was still under repair.

It is also the main reason why Yatuo is staying on this island at the moment.

The visit to Bakuka was just a casual chat; the important thing was to help repair this "small" boat.

Just as Rawl had said before, this was an exploration and archaeological ship from O'Hara on the All-Knowing Tree Island. It set sail with an unknown mission, but encountered pirate attacks and a storm shipwreck in the South China Sea.

If the scholars on the ship had not tried desperately to rescue them, they might not have waited until Yatuo and others discovered and rescued them.

All I can say is that it's not my destiny to die.

"Sister Olivia, are you still reading? You are indeed the youngest scholar in O'Hara today, and your passion for archaeology is also eye-catching."

After getting on his car, Yatuo slowly came to the white lady who was reading a book by the boat. He spoke in a gentle tone and always had a smile on his face.

Olivia, what a beautiful name, like a mysterious and magnificent dream forest.

The owner of this name is just as her name suggests. Her temperament is full of scholarly intellect, just like a mysterious forest, and her beauty is even more outstanding. Although such beauty is not everywhere in the sea, it is not rare either.

If Olivia knew how to be considerate and caring, that would be Yato's ideal type.

And it was because of her beauty...love at first sight that Yatuo set his sights on the female scholar and started talking to her the moment he got on board.

Ideals are just ideals after all, people need to be more realistic.

"It's Yatuo, thank you for your compliment, but my knowledge is still too shallow compared to those doctors, I need to work harder to improve it."

Olivia politely closed the book before responding to Yatuo and continued:
"Thank you again for saving us. Bart promised to give me a surprise when I got back. I almost never saw him again. He might be sad for a long time because of this."

The shipwreck was quite unexpected, and she was lucky enough to survive thanks to Yatuo. She was even able to meet her boyfriend-to-be who was far away in O'Hara again and listen to his confession.

O'Hara's archaeological team basically conducts its work in secret, and even the world government finds it difficult to discover their traces. Therefore, scholars within the team almost always set out in batches.

Olivia was not in the same batch as Bart he mentioned.

"That's not necessary. After all, my father has a long history with O'Hara. When I was a child, I asked Dr. Shamrock for a fairy tale book there."

As he spoke, Yatuo's expression remained unchanged, he was polite and maintained an appropriate sense of distance, but there was a hint of struggle in his eyes.

Bart, O'Hara's scholar and Olivia's suitor.

After seeing Olivia for the first time, Yatuo started to collect a lot of relevant information, so he naturally knew the details.

He was struggling over whether or not to be a third party.

His upbringing and conscience were trying to dissuade him, but his inner desires were instigating him like crazy.

It's rare to meet a girl who is almost like a piece of cake for you. Why is fate so unfair?
It would be great if that guy named Bart died...

Everyone has hidden malice, and Yatuo is currently wavering in his own malice.

I went to Dongshan Island today. I just finished dinner. I still have two chapters to go. I will finish them and go to bed. I will post them together at about 4 am.
