One Piece : Kaido Brother

Next day

With the appearance of Kaido and Big Mom, the entire nation erupted in excitement.

The atmosphere of fear and despair that had lingered for over a week was instantly swept away!

On every island, skilled chefs worked tirelessly with smiles on their faces, preparing vast amounts of delicious food.

The streets returned to their usual calm as citizens resumed their peaceful lives, no longer fearing whether other pirates might come to wreak havoc in Totto Land.

For the ordinary people of this nation, as long as their queen Big Mom remained, they would always be safe.

All she needed was an abundance of sweets.

At the heart of Totto Land, on Whole Cake Island, the scene was bustling with activity.

Graceful maids carried lavish dishes unloaded from massive ships, delivering them to every table in the grand plaza.

Each table was packed with fierce-looking pirates—Gifters, Pleasures, the Oniwabanshu, Wano samurai, elite members of the Big Mom Pirates and Big Mom's own children.

Everyone wore cheerful expressions, raising their glasses in mutual toasts, the atmosphere warm and lively.

At the very center of the plaza stood an enormous round table, laden with rare and exquisite delicacies.

Barrels of fine wine were placed beside it, attended by a dozen burly attendants standing at the ready, prepared to serve the distinguished guests seated at the table.

The most striking figure at the table was undoubtedly Caesar, seated at the very center—his towering, godlike presence exuding overwhelming dominance.

At this moment, Caesar wore a genial smile, nodding approvingly at Linlin children like a kind father.

"Bororororo! Linlin, your place is truly prosperous! Look at the mess Kaido made of Wano—filthy and poor. How he could stay in that backwater place for decades is beyond me. A place like yours is the real paradise of the New World!"

Caesar laughed heartily, throwing an arm around Linlin shoulder while teasing Kaido with a smirk.

Kaido, irritated, drowned his annoyance in wine, ignoring him.

"Katakuri, how's your injury? Need your old man to lend you some life force to speed up your recovery?"

Caesar then turned his cheerful gaze toward Katakuri, seated at Linlin left.

Originally, this seat would have belonged to Perospero.

But after Katakuri's overwhelming victory against Admiral Kizaru in the waters beyond Wano, his strength had skyrocketed, earning him unprecedented respect and admiration.

Loved by both Caesar and Linlin, Katakuri prestige had soared and even Perospero as the eldest brother, willingly yielded the seat to him.

Perospero now sat beside Katakuri, followed by Daifuku, Oven, Smoothie and the others.

At six meters tall, Katakuri already stood out among the crowd, though he still seemed somewhat youthful compared to the three titans.

"I'm fine, Father! There's no need to waste your vitality—I'll recover fully in just a few days."

Katakuri responded respectfully.

Among the four brothers, he was likely the most willing to acknowledge Caesar as their father.

It wasn't because Caesar had saved Katakuri at the brink of life and death.

Rather, it was the bloodline connection between father and son, stemming from the familiar bloodline aura on Caesar that was even more intimate than Linlin.

After Caesar used his blood to help Katakuri awaken his Oni bloodline, this bond became even more unbreakable.

Around the round table, Katakuri's siblings—Linlin children—sat to his left.

Some were curious, some were in awe and some remained silent, but all of them kept glancing at Caesar in the center, intrigued by this suddenly appearing 'father'.

Ever since horns had grown on Katakuri's head, the resemblance between Caesar, Kaido and Katakuri had become strikingly obvious.

This Caesar could casually embrace their mother with affection and joke around with Kaido without restraint—all of which spoke volumes about his strength and mystery.

"Mamamama! Children, stand up one by one and introduce yourselves to your father and your uncle Kaido. From now on, we are one family. The Charlotte Family will be renamed the Barbarossa Family. Oh, I forgot to tell you—your father is Kaido's elder brother. His name is Barbarossa Caesar."

Linlin smiled broadly, gesturing for Katakuri to begin.

Katakuri nodded and stood up first.

He raised his glass to Caesar in a toast, then turned to Kaido and said respectfully.

"Katakuri greets Uncle Kaido!"

Kaido who rarely show satisfaction, grinned and lifted his enormous barrel of liquor, clinking it against Katakuri's cup.

"Wororororo! Katakuri, you're not bad. I hope you surpass your bastard of a father soon!"

"Can you even talk properly?"

Caesar nose twisted in anger as he punched Kaido arm, making him sway and spill some of his drink.

Barbarossa Caesar—the elder brother of Kaido of the Beasts!

Cracker, Snack, Brulee and the others who were meeting Caesar for the first time were so shocked their eyebrows twitched.

When it was their turn to introduce themselves, they trembled, stammered and were so nervous they could barely speak.

That was until a girl of average height, with delicate features but a third eye on her forehead—Pudding—stood up.

Back in Wano, both Caesar and Kaido had heard Linlin talk about Pudding ability: the Paramecia-type Memo Memo Fruit, which allowed her to read, extract, steal and alter others' memories.

This was an incredibly powerful ability.

The moment Caesar understood its nature, his mind raced with possibilities—he could use Pudding's power to enslave countless strong individuals, rewrite their memories and make them willingly serve him!

For example, capturing Kizaru, altering his memories and turning him into Caesar son, forcing him to fight against the Marines.

If that proved impossible due to memory conflicts, it didn't matter.

They could simply erase his memories, leaving his mind blank and turning him into a clueless fool.

Caesar couldn't help but imagine the sight of high-ranking Marine officers all reduced to idiots.

The leaders of the World Government would surely lose their minds, wouldn't they?

Although Pudding had become somewhat despondent now.

Normally, she would always conceal her third eye to maintain a beautiful image, but now she no longer cared about such things.

She stood up indifferently, appearing obedient but without a trace of a smile on her face.

Caesar and Kaido, whom she had toasted, exchanged glances and laughed heartily.

"So you're Pudding? Excellent! Borororo, Pudding, I need your abilities to help me with something. In return, what would you like?"

Everyone was taken aback.

No one expected Caesar, who had only shown slight warmth towards the Charlotte quadruplets, to be this enthusiastic about Pudding as well.

Pudding was momentarily stunned but simply nodded silently, forcing a stiff smile on her face.

"No need... Father, I don't want anything."

Caesar grinned widely "I heard from Linlin that you were quite taken with that Vinsmoke Sanji? I can capture him and make him your real husband. What do you think?"

Pudding froze, her petite frame trembling slightly as a flicker of excitement crossed her face.

With hopeful eyes, she looked at Caesar and opened her mouth as if to say something.

But then, as if remembering something else, she sighed and appeared dejected.

"It's still unnecessary," Pudding said hoarsely.

"No, he must come. When i decides to do something, no one can stop it" Caesar declared, baring his fang-filled mouth with an aura of pure malice.
