*4 Years Later*
Mandricardo 15
I was currently sitting on the edge of the deck with a fishing rod out, we didn't have anything in particular going on at the moment.
Probably wondering what happened in the last 4 years right? Nothing much really, it was kind of the same old thing really, though about 2 years ago I learned everything from Rocks on the ancient texts from what he could read, I'm no master at the language myself but I can basically understand what's written whenever I look at them now.
In the mean time both me and Kaidou's relationship somewhat got better, we don't hate each other's guts like back then and we still fight but him being 20 now his power has gone up immensely compared to before, now our fights come to stand stills more often than ever now, we limit our fights to 4 hours tops, goes past that it ends in a draw, but from all the fights over the years I'm still winning overall but now it's getting to become neck and neck.
I completed both of the Truth of the World and Kaidou side quests a few years back giving me the ability to better understand ancient texts as well as be considered a future member of the beast pirates as well as having a strong immunity to Kaidou's future devil fruit when he gets it that is.
Currently I was actually on big Ma's ship as it was heading back to the islands that she has under control since she was gonna give birth again pretty soon.
This is like the 2nd or 3rd time I've gone with her back to her own personal islands, it's nice that I'm welcome there since most aren't allowed there from the main crew, but mostly is because I'm both the doctor as well as me having I nice relationship with LinLin that I'm given a pass.
Not long after I saw the main island off in the distance since she was able to make a eternal pose back to her main island that is surrounded by multiple other islands, these were the beginning stages of the creation of ToTo Land.
Whole Cake Island as she calls it, and boy does it look like a cake from the sight of it as the ship pulled up beside the island and everyone got off including me and LinlLin where a good portion of her kids welcomed her home.
Now at this time LinLin isn't the greatest of Mom's but she's not as bad as her future self would turn out to be and with all the work I have done on her over the years I have turned down her madness that she generates as she grow older.
If in the main series she was an old woman with the mentality of a child, currently she was a middle aged woman with the mentality of a teenager, by the time of the main story hopefully by then she will have fully grown up, then again who knows, what I've done might have made her much scarier to deal with down the line.
Right now it's about 40 to 39 years prior to the start of the series at the moment, most of the future big bads of her family have already been born besides a few of them, and even though these kids have seen me a few times over the years a good chunk look to me as a big brother.
Mostly because LinLin says I am to them and also because unlike any of the other kids that also live here under her rule I don't let them do anything to them while I'm around.
See some of there kids get bullied from time to time, they usually deal with it themselves since I'm not constantly watching over their shoulders, but when I'm around their bullies fear me and stay the hell away.
Soon after some of the chess piece soldiers helped bring LinLin back to her castle so she can rest and wait for her to give birth, besides me helping with that, my other job that she pays me to do is dealing with her to be ex-husbands as she breaks up with them after she gives birth and sometimes a little bit before.
To her they are to be the children's caretakers while she is away, same can be said when she starts to stay on the island when she's older since in the main series she is to lazy to look after her kids, I've said this already but cannon her is a terrible mother, and current her isn't much better but after the Rocks Pirates that will change soon enough…. Maybe.
It didn't take that long to find the current dad of the kids since he wears a tiny crown to signify he's king to LinLin's queen, this one was a human which a good chunk of her children are.
"Alright I don't care who you are, and I don't even feel like knowing your name, but it's time for you to ship out like all the rest that came before you." I said as I showed up in front of him, in the future when the kids are older they do it themselves, but till then someone else had to do it.
Though the look on his face said he was gonna argue about it, so a quick 1 2 punch from me knocked him out cold, and like a sack of potatoes I took him to his return ship that was prepared for him and tossed him into it.
"Well that's done, I guess I'll see what the kids are doing right now." I say as I watch the ship head off with there previous father, ain't no way in hell I'm gonna get together with her even when she's to old to have kids anymore.
In the mean time I wandered around the island where there all on currently, Whole Cake Island has been the island so far that LinLin has changed appearance wise and the rest of the surrounding islands are still in development.
As I was wondering around I saw the kid versions of Perospero, Katakuri, Daifuku and Oven hanging out together eating sweets and playing games, though a few of them had bruises and cuts since they have gotten into fights, Katakuri doesn't have his scarf yet since I don't think what happened to him to make it wear it has happened yet.
They waved at me when they saw me and I waved back, whenever I'm around I teach them how to fight and defend themselves, getting training early isn't bad for kids like them to have, though there is always one kid I see specifically since she likes to keep to herself.
"Let me guess, Amande is being a loner again and sitting under her tree reading like usual right?" I asked them as they looked at each other before shrugging.
"She's always like that, I think she enjoys quiet places and being alone, she always gets an annoyed look whenever we want to go play with her." Perospero says as he shakes his head since he is the eldest brother of the entire family after all.
"Haha, just leave her then, if she wants to be alone then let her be." Oven says as he's chewing on some gum with Daifuku nodding in agreement.
"Why do you care any way big brother?" Katakuri said wondering why I cared.
"Well I dunno…. She reminds me of my real little sis herself, and I had to put in a ton of effort to make her become more sociable, I just don't want to see her be like that herself." I say as I shake my head.
"Well you know where to find her, will see you later then big Bro, we got some people we need to deal with." Katakuri says as he cracks his knuckles as he and his brothers go off and deal with some people.
I just shake my head before letting them be to deal with there own things while I head off into the Seducing Woods, though at this point in time there isn't as many Homies as there are by cannon here as there is still a good chunk of normal trees, though I asked some where Amande is and they pointed to the edge of the woods around the edge of the island, a very ideal spot to sit and read at.
"Hey Amande, it's good to see you again." I said with a smile as I approached the blue haired girl reading under the tree.
She looked up and saw me, and slightly smiled, "Welcome back big brother."
