One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 223 Yamato and Shirley

Fast forward a little in time, just when Jinbe was heading towards Fishman Street from the Sea King Army dormitory, on Fishman Island, Yamato was looking at the crystal ball in front of him curiously.

"Can this really see the future?" Yamato asked curiously.

"Of course! I'm the best fortune teller!" shouted Xia Li, who is just five years old this year.

"Can you help me see if dad and mom's dream has come true?" Yamato said.

"Divination doesn't work like this. I can only see what may happen in the future, but I don't know what exactly will be predicted. I can't specify a specific target." Xia Li explained to Yamato.

"Oh~~Is it not possible?" Yamato said with disappointment on his face.

"No, no one knows what will be predicted. Sometimes it's a sentence, sometimes it's an image, sometimes it's a picture, and sometimes it's a sound. But no matter what it is, the prediction will come true in the end. But no one can tell whether the result is good or bad. But now the results I get from divination are not very good." Xia Li was also a little helpless. Because of this, many people called her the disaster star.

"Forget it, mom said that you have to fight for your future with your own hands. It's meaningless to just see the results." Upon hearing this, Yamato quickly shook his head and said some profound truths that he himself didn't understand.

"Okay, but are you ready to leave?" Xia Li looked at the Beast Ship which was sorting supplies behind Yamato. At this time, the Beast King had been re-coated and was ready to leave at any time. Xia Li was reluctant to leave Yamato. As she just said, many people regarded her as a disaster, so she didn't have many friends on Fishman Island. She only had her brother Aaron to take care of her. However, the age difference between the two was a bit big, and a rough guy who grew up in a place like Fishman Street couldn't understand a little girl's thoughts, which made Xia Li very bored. Yamato was a very outgoing person, and he came over when he saw Xia Li. The two were of similar age, and after a few interactions, they became friends.

And now, Xia Li's friend who finally showed up is leaving. How can she not be sad?
"Well, Dad and Mom have something to do. Mom said that she won't allow me to be outside alone until I come of age." Yamato pouted. She really hoped to grow up quickly and go out and see the world on her own.

"Well, I thought you could stay a little longer." Charlie said very disappointedly.

"Oh, by the way, do you want to come with me and visit my house? I'll introduce Jack and Maria to you. They will definitely like you!" Yamato looked at the frustrated Shirley and said after thinking for a while.

"Oh? Can I?" Charlie was stunned. She had never thought about this kind of thing. Although she had always longed for the world on land and although she had seen the appearance of the sun in divination a few days ago, if she were asked to go to the land now, Charlie found herself timid.

"Sure? Why not? Oh, yes, you also need your family's consent. Why don't you go back and ask them? What if they agree?" Yamato said with a smile.

"Well, then I'll go ask my brother." Xia Li lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said cautiously.

"No problem, I'll tell my dad too. Believe me, my dad will definitely not refuse, as long as my mom is not around." Yamato knew very well that Kaido never cared about these things. As long as he said that he wanted to bring a friend back with him, Kaido would definitely drink and wave his hand and say it was up to him. If it was Lily, it would be a different situation. Lily would definitely dig deep and ask questions clearly before making a decision.

The two men who had made up their minds split up and headed towards the target. Yamato's side was going smoothly. Kaido was drunk and didn't pay any attention to Yamato's words. Just as Yamato thought, he casually waved his hand and said, "You can do whatever you want." As for whether Yamato would be beaten after Kaido sobered up, Yamato couldn't think that far ahead. It was fine as long as it went smoothly now, and he would talk about it later. Anyway, Yamato thought he was quite resistant to beatings.

Xia Li hurriedly found Aaron's house, but the neighbors said that Aaron had just gone out. After asking around, Xia Li finally confirmed Aaron's location and rushed over.

"Xia Li! What did you say? Where are you going?" If Arlong was just a little angry when Jinbei left, Xia Li's words almost made Arlong unable to hold the string in his head. Almost instantly, Arlong's eyes were bloodshot, staring at Xia Li, and an angry sound came out of his throat. "That, that." Xia Li had never seen Arlong like this before. She shrank back in fear, not daring to look at Arlong, and the words in her mouth were not clear.

"Aaron, you scared Xia Li." Jinbei also reacted from the initial shock and reached out to hold Arlong. He was afraid that Arlong would do something uncalm. After all, Arlong's personality was like this. It was easy for him to fall into extreme emotions and many accidents happened in the past.

"Jinbei! Did you hear what she said! She wants to go to the land with a human she just met not long ago! Does she know how dangerous this is?" Looking at Jinbei who was blocking him, Arlong became even angrier. He turned around and opened his bloody mouth towards Jinbei, as if he was going to tear a piece of meat from Jinbei if they had a disagreement.

"I know, I know, I heard it. Didn't we secretly go to the sea to see the bubble park before? Don't get excited, don't get excited, let Xia Li finish what she is saying." Jinbei tried his best to comfort Arlong, and at the same time blocked Xia Li behind him, using his broad body to provide protection for Xia Li.

"Hu, hu, hu, okay, let her speak." Aaron broke a low wall next to him with one punch, took a few deep breaths, and said while barely suppressing his anger.

"Okay, Xia Li, go ahead and talk. It's okay. Brother Jinbei is here to protect you." Jinbei turned sideways and said to Aaron while still being on guard.

"Well, well, Yamato and the others are leaving, and she invited me to her house to play. She also said that one of her friends is also a merman, but he can't swim..." Xia Li's words were a little confusing at first, but she gradually sorted out her thoughts. She told her how she became friends with Yamato and how they chatted in the past few days, and how she was sad that Yamato was leaving. Then she told her everything about how Yamato invited her to play together. She became more and more excited as she spoke, but she didn't realize that Aaron's anger had risen again.

"Enough! I don't agree! I don't trust those humans! What a crap friend who is a fishman and can't swim. How is it possible that there is a fishman who can't swim! Even newborn babies can swim! This is obviously a lie to you! Do you understand? Jinbe! They are just a bunch of liars!" Aaron rudely interrupted Xia Li and said angrily.

"Aaron, first of all, Miss Yamato is not a human, but a demon. It is not impossible that she can't swim. I remember I told you that if you eat something called devil fruit, you will gain magical powers, but you will be abandoned by the sea and it is possible that you can't swim. As far as I know, there are many devil fruit users in the Beast Kingdom." Jinbei grabbed Arlong's arm with one hand to control him, and then stroked his back with the other hand to prevent Arlong from getting too angry. After all, Arlong's skin color is now developing in the direction of big brother Tiger.

"That won't do either! No means no! I don't agree!" Arlong struggled to grab Xia Li, but was locked by Jinbei. Jinbei really didn't dare to let go. With Arlong's current state, who knows if he would seriously injure Xia Li, which would be very funny then.

"I don't care! I'm going! I'm just telling you! You can't control me!" Although she is younger, as a shark, Xia Li also got angry. She didn't care whether Arlong was angry or not. She shouted, turned around and swam away. No matter what Arlong and Jinbei shouted behind her, she didn't look back and swam towards Fishman Island.

"Let me Jinbei go! That little bitch! She's rebelling! She's totally rebellious! Let me Jinbei go!" Aaron struggled even harder. This was his only relative, and he would not let her get hurt no matter what.

"I can let you go, but you have to calm down first. Shirley won't listen to you if you're like this. If Shirley gets angry and sneaks away, that'll be bad. Do you understand?" Jinbei stared at the direction where Shirley left. Although mermaids are the fastest moving species in the sea, Shirley is still young after all, and some can't move that fast.

"Okay! I'll calm down! You let go first." Aaron said with clenched teeth.

"Then I'll let you go." Jinbei loosened his hand, and Arlong instantly rushed out like an arrow. However, Jinbei had already prepared a plan and chased after him instantly, but he did not stop Arlong. After all, he was also very worried about Xia Li.
