One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 21 Dressrosa and Riku Dold III

Dressrosa is not far from the two of them. In 30 minutes, they will be able to see the peculiar coastline of Dressrosa. At Lily's request, Kaido did not fly directly into the city, but came to the shore, transformed into a human form, and entered the city according to normal procedures.

Dressrosa at this time was not as prosperous as it was later, but the lively feeling was still the same. The two walked on the main road of the city. The backpack behind Lily had already moved to Kaido's back. At the same time, Kaido looked at the Zhizhi in Lily's hand curiously.

"This little guy is quite interesting." Kaido secretly used the Conqueror's Haki to test Zhizhi, but Zhizhi completely ignored him.

"Don't look at Zhizhi's appearance, she can use dual colors of domineering." Lily noticed Kaido's temptation and explained with a chuckle.

"Oh~ It's really amazing. I didn't expect that animals can also learn Haki? This is really interesting. Hey Lily, what do you say I find some smart animals to teach them Haki?" Kaido's thoughts diverged instantly. In addition to animal-type ability users, if he could get a pair of animals that could use Haki, then his Hundred Beasts would definitely be more suitable.

"Don't think about it. Zhizhi's race is very special, and they have to practice under my master since childhood to learn it. It's not that easy. I'm afraid you don't have the leisure to do that." Lily guessed Kaido's thoughts instantly. On the way here, Kaido introduced Lily to his plan called "Hundred Beasts". Lily agreed with this. Manshou's story has told her that a stable rear and an excellent group are necessary.

"Don't say that. What if one day I find an animal as smart as humans?" Kaido was not discouraged by Lily. There are all kinds of strange creatures in this ocean, so there must be smart animals.

"Okay, I won't discourage you, but do you know where the tavern is?" Lily didn't know what to say about Kaido's idea, because she actually knew a race that met Kaido's requirements - the Minks. This was a race recorded in the Manshou Diary, but it was said that the place of residence of this race was a mystery, so Lily didn't tell Kaido.

Kaido was suddenly stunned. He had never been to this country and only heard about it from the people on the Rocks Pirates' ship. For a moment, the two of them stood there in a daze.

"Uh, I don't know." Kaido said a little embarrassedly. At the same time, he remembered another fatal problem. He seemed to have no money. During the time he was away from the Valley of the Gods, he lived by robbing other pirates of their food and drinks. As for money, he didn't seem to have taken a single cent.

"If you don't mind, please follow me." Just as the two of them were standing there, a voice sounded from behind them. They both turned around at the same time and lowered their heads.

"Hello, both of you. If you don't mind, I'd like to show you the way." The speaker was a young man in his twenties. His black hair was like a lion's sideburns and looked like burning flames. He was about two meters and five centimeters tall. He waved to the two with a faint smile.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Lily asked, expressing her curiosity about the young man who suddenly appeared. The clothes seemed simple, but not everyone could wear them.

"Me? I'm just passing by. When I heard that you two were here for the first time and I was also planning to have a drink, I decided to be a good person." said the young man.

"Oh? Well, it deserves to be called the Kingdom of Passion and Fairies (the title before Doflamingo)." Kaido laughed and chose to believe the young man in front of him. He had observed him with his observation Haki. Although the young man's strength was good, it was far inferior to his own. He was not afraid of guys weaker than himself.

"Thank you for your help then." Lily also discovered through her ability to listen to the voices of all things that the young man in front of her had no ill intentions, so she agreed.

"No trouble, no trouble, it's just on our way." The young man quickly thanked them for being polite, and then took them through the streets and alleys, introducing many of Dressrosa's iconic buildings, such as the Dressrosa Arena, Lovers' Avenue, etc. Finally, the three of them arrived in front of a tall three-story building.

The young man walked to the door and knocked on it hard.

"Yvette! Open the door! A guest is coming!" As the young man shouted, the door was slowly pushed open and a female voice came from inside.

"Who is it? It's only three in the afternoon, and the pub doesn't open until four."

Along with the voice came a woman about ten meters tall, wearing a red plaid dress and a gray apron, with messy brown hair. She yawned while speaking, and it seemed that she had just woken up.

Yvette glanced down and greeted him familiarly.

"Oh, it's Xiao Liku, long time no see, why are you drinking here?"

"I'm an adult, not a kid anymore. These two people behind me are tourists from other places. Their height is the most suitable for you." The young man habitually retorted and introduced the two people behind him to Yvette. Yvette glanced at them.
"What a rare guest! I didn't expect to meet two ghosts. Come in." Yvette recognized the races of Lily and Kaido at a glance, and turned to invite them in. "Why do I feel like everyone can recognize my race?" Kaido muttered softly, and then walked into the tavern. Lily shrugged beside Kaido and followed him in.

After entering the house, Lily and Kaido knew why the young man brought them here. Wooden tables and chairs of different sizes were arranged in the house, and the two could easily find a suitable seat for themselves.

Just as the three of them sat down, Yvette brought three large glasses of beer and placed them on the table in front of them.

"Since you were brought here by Xiao Liku, I'll treat you to the opening."

"I'm an adult, I'm an adult, Yvette, I'm an adult! Can you please not add smaller amounts?" the young man complained, holding an oversized wine glass.

"Whether it's your father, King Riku, or you, the prince, they're all little brats in my eyes, hahahaha." Yvette laughed and revealed the identity of the young man in front of her, the future King Riku - Riku Dold III.

"Really?" The young man, oh no, Prince Riku looked helplessly at Yvette who was walking back to the bar, then turned to face Lily and Kaido and said, "Don't mind, you two, Yvette is like this, she is a giant, she has lived in Dressrosa for many years, it is said that she was there when my father was a child."

"Oh, it's okay." Kaido laughed and raised his glass and drank half of it in one breath, but his eyes did not leave the prince in front of him. Having been betrayed by the nobles, he naturally had no trust in this kind of royal family.

"Why would Your Highness come to a place like this to drink?" Lily was not as rude as Kaido. She picked up the wine glass, took two sips and put it down, asking while stroking Zhizhi.

“Hey, hey, hey, don’t shout Prince, don’t shout,” Prince Liku waved his hands quickly, “I ran away secretly. The palace is too boring. I don’t want to learn those noble etiquettes, so I ran away secretly.”

"Oh~ As far as I know, aristocratic etiquette is a course that nobles must learn." Kaido glanced at the prince. He looked about the same age as himself, but why did he feel like he was facing a child? It was ridiculous that he was afraid of studying and ran away.

"What's the use of that thing? It would be better to go out on the streets more often and see what the people need." Prince Liku retorted, then raised his glass and gulped it down.

"Well, you're a good guy." Looking at Prince Riku's heroic way of drinking and his disdain for aristocratic etiquette, Kaido's impression of him changed.

"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, I know you. Your bounty is 2 million berries, and you're a trainee in the Rocks Pirates - Kaido." Prince Riku put down his wine glass and said to Kaido.

"Do you know me?" Kaido slowly reached out and grasped the Eight Precepts at his waist, ready to take action at any time.

"That's right! The horns on your head are very easy to recognize. Well, I haven't been to the sea much. Can you tell me some stories about the open sea?" To Kaido's surprise, Prince Riku actually asked Kaido directly about what he saw and heard at sea. This naive look made Kaido a little at a loss. As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person in the face. Kaido and Prince Riku have no grudges. Anyway, he had to tell Lily about his experiences over the years, so Kaido started to tell her.

Just as Lily and Prince Riku were listening with great interest, the door of the tavern was pushed open.

"You little brat! You skipped class again!"
