One Piece: My Descendants All Become Monsters

"As time passes, the Kozuki clan's control over Wano Country will gradually weaken."

"And!"

"The best method is to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys."

"Then…"

"Which chicken would be most suitable?"

"And if this generation of the Kozuki family had no heirs, and the successor had to be chosen from among the five great families…"

"Then."

"Who exactly was ambitious would naturally become clear at a glance."

"The Kurozumi clan, second only to the Shimotsuki clan, became the chicken that was slaughtered."

"What a decent plan."

Although it had only been a few words, Ike had immediately summarized the entire process.

Clap!

Clap!

Ike could not help applauding. "I have to say, the Kozuki clan's methods really were quite good. Closing the country, hiding the Amatsuki family in the shadows, forming a brotherly bond with the Mink Tribe overseas, and internally using the Kurozumi clan as the chicken to warn the monkeys. Truly outstanding! Everything seemed to be under their control."

"Hehehe~~~"

Kurozumi Higurashi laughed strangely. "Patriarch, just as you said, yes! Everything was under the Kozuki clan's control. But! Kozuki Sukiyaki probably never dreamed that among the ninja force his father had cultivated for him, the Oniwabanshu, its leader would actually be an orphan of the Kurozumi clan."

Kurozumi Higurashi's eyes flickered with a strange light. That sinister smile, combined with her posture, truly gave people the feeling of an old witch.

"Mm~~~"

Ike narrowed his eyes and rubbed his chin. After carefully thinking about it, he also nodded. Regarding this situation, it could basically be confirmed.

How should it be put~~~

In the original story!

Kurozumi Orochi's control over Kozuki Sukiyaki had been far too easy. Even if he was a subordinate, he was only a retainer. With the Oniwabanshu's protection, could Kozuki Sukiyaki really be controlled so easily?

But!

If Fukurokuju among the Oniwabanshu was actually a member of the Kurozumi clan, then the situation was reversed.

In addition!

At that time, Wano Country was entirely under Kozuki Sukiyaki's control. Even Kuri, that chaotic gathering place, had been pacified by his own son. Under such circumstances, he naturally felt that there would be no problems at all. Precisely because of that, problems appearing was instead the most understandable thing.

"Well!"

"Although they seem like four very simple steps, in a place like Wano Country, they are very suitable."

"Kurozumi Higurashi."

"You can be responsible for Wano Country's matters yourself. Whether it is money or people, handle everything properly. What I need is only for my son to safely become the shogun of Wano Country and bring the entire Wano Country under control."

Ike supported his head, extremely calm. Yet within that calmness, there was authority.

"Yes!"

Kurozumi Higurashi stood up and, together with Kurozumi Semimaru, bowed in the standard dogeza posture before the two of them withdrew from the office.

"Wano Country!" Ike narrowed his eyes and whispered softly, "Based on this estimate, taking control of Wano Country is only a matter of time. Thinking about it this way, Wano Country can already be considered under control."

"Then…"

"The business of the underground world can also gradually start being considered."

"Well!"

"There are still many things to be busy with!"

Ike sighed slightly and sat up straight. There were still many things to handle. Many matters needed to be dealt with. He did not have that much time to slowly rest.

October 1st, Year 1474 of the Sea Circle Calendar.

The last time Ike's child was born had almost been exactly one year ago. Irene's birthday was October 10th, Year 1473.

Now.

Baloric Alice.

Her time to give birth was exactly October 1st, only ten short days away from a full year.

Redfield wore a red suit, his white hair combed back, with an umbrella cane hanging from him. He stood outside the delivery room, appearing extremely calm, as if he did not care about all of this at all.

However!

As long as one was not an idiot, they could see that Redfield was extremely anxious at this moment. All that calmness was merely forced.

"Want one?" Newgate very naturally handed a cigar to Redfield and said calmly, "You can try it. When you're nervous, it's pretty good for relaxing."

"Alright!"

Redfield took the cigar and walked to the side with Newgate. The two of them began puffing smoke.

"Gurararara~~~"

Newgate laughed and said, "Red Bat, your mentality isn't good enough. Isn't it just the birth of your relative's descendant? Look at me! My mentality is extremely good!"

Redfield silently looked at Newgate and complained, "Whitebeard! You already have twenty-eight nephews and ten nieces, while this is only my first niece or nephew."

To put it plainly.

Redfield's state was similar to Newgate's when Artoria had first been born. Although the two of them were not the closest roles like father or mother, they were elders of the family.

Moreover!

Given their personalities, whether they would have children of their own in the future was hard to say. Naturally, they completely placed their attention on their younger sister's child or their younger brother's child.

The two of them had the same mentality.

"Rest assured." Newgate gave a thumbs-up and said with great confidence, "In every aspect of pregnancy, childbirth, and delivery, my family's doctors are absolutely world-class. Many of them were personally brought back by me from Drum Kingdom."

Newgate expressed that he could relax.

Although!

The doctors of the Edward Family could not be said to be the best in the world overall, when it came to pregnant women, delivery, children, and this entire series of matters, they were absolutely among the world's top existences.

Drum Kingdom: the world's number one medical kingdom.

And Newgate had once gone to Drum Kingdom and brought back a terrifying number of doctors. As for why they were willing to leave their homeland and come with him? Of course, because he paid a lot! Ten times the salary. Are you coming or not?!

Besides…

There were far too many doctors in Drum Kingdom itself, and the competition there was extremely intense. After coming to the Totto Land sea area, they not only received ten times the salary, they also did not need to compete so fiercely.

If there was one bad thing.

It was that they needed to place all their family's medical texts into the library and supplement the library's collection, not only for reading.

More importantly, it was to ensure that if a child skilled in medicine was born in the future, they would have a better learning environment.

Not only that!

The craftsmen brought from Wano Country all had to organize their lifetime forging experience into written texts.

The swordsmanship families from Wano Country also had to write down their family swordsmanship manuals and swordsmanship experience.

The ninja families naturally had to do the same.

In addition, although Ike had not done it on a massive scale, he had never given up purchasing, collecting, restoring, screening, and storing books from all over the world…

And so on!

How many years had it been?!

The Edward Family.

The Totto Land sea area.

Cake Island.

The library here could not be said to be invincible in any single field, but in terms of overall scale, it had already surpassed the Tree of Knowledge in Ohara of the West Blue.

Of course.

What was the point of all this nonsense?

It was Newgate telling Redfield that he could rest assured. The doctors of the Edward Family were absolutely reliable. There would be no problem at all, alright? There was no need to be overly tangled up or nervous. There would absolutely be no problems.

"My lord!"

"Madam!"

"Miss Alice has given birth! Mother and daughter are safe! Mother and daughter are safe!"

"Good!"

Ike was too lazy to pay attention to those two running off to the side to puff smoke. He quietly waited outside the delivery room, listening to his big brother brag about how amazing the family's doctors and library were.

"That's great!" Seeing Ike and Selina enter the delivery room, Redfield let out a long breath. Then, after thinking for a moment, he said, "Whitebeard, let me ask you a question!"

"Ah?!"

Newgate had just been about to put out his cigar, but when he heard this, he was stunned and asked, "Red Bat, what's the situation?"

"You say…" Redfield looked at the delivery room before him, rubbed his chin, and thought, "Do you think my younger sister has any hope of becoming the Patriarch's wife?"

"Huh?!"

Newgate raised an eyebrow and froze for a moment. Then he blinked and said, "There's definitely hope. You also know that there are three positions for equal wives. That is certainly fixed. As for anything beyond that?"

"Mm~~~"

Newgate shook his head and did not say anything else. Redfield also understood what he meant.

"It seems!" Redfield thought secretly, yet firmly, "Even if only for the sake of raising my younger sister's status, I need to work even harder."

Unknowingly.

Redfield could already be considered to have integrated into the Edward Family as a brother-in-law.

[Identity: Eleventh Daughter]

[Birthday: October 1st, Year 1474 of the Sea Circle Calendar]

[Talent: C+ Female Ghost Beneath Fallen Leaves / B-rank Heart-Hunting Female Ghost]

[Aptitude: C+ / B]

"Hm?!"

Looking at his eleventh daughter's talent and aptitude, Ike raised an eyebrow and froze instantly. What was going on?

Although!

Many of his children's talents were very special. Some were good, some were bad, and some were even extremely special growth-type talents.

Ah.

But he had never seen a situation where one person possessed two completely different talents and aptitudes.

However.

Ike felt hesitant and thought secretly, "One body with two souls? Or are there two children sharing one body? Or perhaps split personalities?"

Honestly.

Ike truly felt his head aching right now. What the hell was all this?!

Was this some kind of joke?!

Why did his children always have strange, inexplicable, and very bizarre ones appear?

"Husband?" Alice also noticed Ike's hesitation and nervously asked, "My child? Could it be…"

"It's fine."

Ike knew that if something happened, for Alice, who had just become a mother for the first time, it would be a huge problem.

Ike explained, "It's nothing. It's just that this child's talent is relatively good and also rather special, so I looked a few more times."

Pregnancy made women foolish for three years. Alice smiled and nodded.

And!

"Good~~~"

Ike secretly thought, "What exactly is this child's situation? Or rather! Is there a special madwoman inside her body, or is it something else?"

Ike was truly very confused about this point. He found it somewhat difficult to understand what exactly was going on with this double talent and double aptitude situation.

"However…"

"Edward Momiji!"

Ike still said calmly, "This child's name will be Momiji."

"Alright!"

Alice lay on the hospital bed and nodded gently. Having just become a mother, she was no longer like the child-faced woman from before. Instead, she was filled with maternal gentleness.

After comforting Alice, Ike brought Selina and left the room. He also calmly said, "Selina, you will give birth soon as well. You need to rest properly."

"It has only been one month, after all." Selina first shook her head gently, then said, "However, I will also rest properly. Husband, please rest assured."

As a smart woman, Selina naturally knew that at a time like this, she absolutely should not act in any strange way. That would not be a good thing.

Ike nodded and brought Selina out of the room.

"Ike?"

"Patriarch?"

Seeing Ike walk out, Newgate and Redfield quickly came over. Selina did not disturb them. After taking her leave, she brought her young maid and left.

Redfield forcefully suppressed his calmness and asked softly, "Patriarch, Alice, she…"

"Red Bat." Ike nodded and smiled. "Rest assured. Nothing happened to Alice. Mother and daughter are safe. She is a very peaceful child."

"That's wonderful…"

Redfield could not suppress his smile. He only had one direct bloodline relative left, his younger sister. Now that his younger sister was safe, what else needed to be said? To Redfield, this was practically the most important matter.

Newgate could understand Redfield's feelings. The two of them hooked arms and went out to drink and celebrate.

Ike, however, shook his head, while secretly thinking, "What exactly is going on? Momiji, your talent is very special. Is it one body with two souls, or split personalities?"

This was what Ike found strangest. Of course, he did not have any other thoughts. Whatever situation his daughter had was not a problem.

He was more confused and did not quite understand what this situation actually was.

[Master! Detected that Master has discovered a one-body-two-souls talent. A descendant with one-body-two-souls talent has been born. Achievement System activated!]

[Reward: A-rank Designated-Type Template.]

[A-rank Designated-Type Template: Allows an unborn descendant to possess an A-rank talent. At the same time! Master may designate a type. For example, Armored Titan or Colossal Titan, and automatically obtain an A-rank talent of the same series.]

Looking at the System that instantly popped out, Ike froze slightly, then asked, "What is this one body with two souls situation?"

Ike knew that as long as he activated it, his three-no System would generally explain.

Ike also knew that this lousy System of his was not actually very proactive. Only when originally stored knowledge was activated would it be triggered.

"Master! One body with two souls represents that a descendant possesses dual talents and dual aptitudes. As time passes, the child's talents and aptitudes will gradually transform and improve. This is an alternative form of growth-type talent."

"So that's how it is!"

Listening to the System's explanation, Ike roughly understood what it meant. Wasn't this a rank-up?

From SR to SP?

Ike could not help thinking of a certain Onmyoji game from when he first named one of his children. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, then he shook his head. No need. No need. There was still no need to think too much. It was honestly somewhat unnecessary.

"However!" Looking at the A-rank Designated-Type Template he had obtained once again, Ike narrowed his eyes, rubbed his chin, and thought, "As for this template! Based on the family's current situation…"

"Mm~~~"

Ike began thinking about this template. Or rather, how could he better bring out its perfect effect?

As he left, Ike continued thinking about this matter. Only through careful consideration could its perfect effect be brought out even better.
