Chapter 135: The Heaven-Defying Yamato

"Brother Lu is so strong. He learned Ryuo so quickly. I thought I was the fastest."

Yamato stood up and looked at Lu Li in amazement.

Lu Li asked Yamato with some curiosity, "How old were you when you learned Ryuo? How did you learn it?"

Yamato looked up and recalled for a few seconds, "Let me think about it, it was probably when I was eleven years old. At that time, I felt that I had grown a lot taller and stronger, so I wanted to follow Kozuki Oden's will to defeat Kaido. Unfortunately, I was too weak at that time and failed to do so. After a fierce battle, I was knocked unconscious. After waking up, I only knew Ryuo."

Lu Li had a strange expression when he heard that. He actually heard from Yamato about a "fierce battle" with Kaido, and it was Yamato when he was eleven years old.

What was the level of Yamato at that time, and what was the level of Kaido?
Yamato can actually fight with Kaido for a while. Doesn’t Yamato really find it strange?

Lu Li wanted to complain: Teacher Kai, he is really like that. He made me cry to death.

"Did your father teach you Ryuu?"

Lu Li couldn't help but ask. Yamato also mentioned that Kaido was her father during their discussion.

Yamato shook his head repeatedly, "Of course not, the damn Kaido just wanted to kill me, but he couldn't do it because Kozuki Oden was protecting me."

Lu Li's expression became even weirder, "Then how did you learn Ryu-Yakura?"

Yamato said as if it was a matter of course: "Of course it's because I'm Kozuki Oden. I'm the hope of Wano Country, so of course I can learn Ryuo."

Lu Li held his forehead with one hand, "I want to ask, when Kaido fought with you for a long time, did he use Ryusakura?"

"Yes, he basically used Ryuo to fight me."

Yamato mentioned this with indignation on his face, "At that time, I had just learned Armament Haki not long ago. That abominable guy must have wanted to show me a higher level of power and use it to mock my weakness!"

"Ah this."

Lu Li was stunned. He really didn't expect Yamato's train of thought to be so magical.

If he put himself in Kaido's shoes, he felt that he would be pissed to death by Yamato.

He is truly a tough guy with a soft heart. Although Kaido doesn't say it, he really cares for his daughter. He can tolerate her trying to kill him and he also taught her the three colors of Haki in battle.

What about Thunder Bagua, Ryuying, and Bachan? They are nothing at all!

"Yamato, you said before that you can also use the Conqueror's Haki, how did you learn this?"

Lu Li couldn't help but ask again.

Yamato thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be about a year ago. I felt that my strength had improved a lot under the blessing of Kozuki Oden, so I wanted to defeat Kaido and establish Wano Country. Unfortunately, although the battle lasted for dozens of minutes, I was still knocked out in the end. After waking up, I became a tyrant, thanks to the blessing of Kozuki Oden."

Lu Li felt that if Kaido heard what Yamato said here at this moment, he would probably vomit.

So Kozuki Oden is really the user of the fruit ability, the user of the fruit of possession, right?

"I want to ask, did Kaido use the Tyrant in that battle?"

Lu Li asked.

Mentioning this, Yamato's face was full of anger, "Why is it useless? I am his biological daughter, but he swung the big stick without mercy, with the Conqueror's Haki wrapped around it, and he swung it directly at my head with a Thunder Bagua, as if he wanted to kill me!"

Lu Li opened his mouth wide. He really felt that Yamato was a lunatic now. "You still know that you are Kaido's biological daughter, but you still want to kill your father?
What we are saying is, is it possible that if Kaido really wanted to kill you, wouldn't you have been unconscious when that stick hit you?
What is your level? What is Kaido's level? Can you still fight for dozens of minutes?

Teacher Kai, he really made me cry.

"I've heard of Thunder Bagua. It seems to be the signature move of the Four Emperors Kaido. Do you know it?"

Lu Li asked again.

Yamato nodded, "Yes, there's nothing I can't do. I've used the Thunder Bagua so many times, even if I'm a fool I can learn it."

"Isn't it your Oden oppa's blessing?"

Lu Li asked back.

Yamato was a little curious and looked at Lu Li in confusion, "What is Oppa?"

"Oh, don't worry about it, that's what your idol means."

Lu Li realized that he was OOC.

Yamato did not ask further questions, just thinking it was a strange name from the outside world, and explained: "Of course not, Thunder Bagua is not a move of Kozuki Oden, I learned it myself, I guess that damn guy would never have thought that not only did I not die, but I also learned his special move."

At this point, Yamato showed a happy smile on his face, "When I think about the expression on his face when I use his ultimate move to kill him in the future, I feel very happy."

Lu Li looked at Yamato in front of him and thought that this child was really hopeless.

She eats Kaido's food, uses Kaido's things, and learns from Kaido, but she wants to kill her father. Everything her father did was wrong, and everything he did to her was to kill her. She can survive only because of the blessing of the spirit of the "heroic man" in heaven.

Lu Li felt that Yamato's symptoms were not only due to witnessing Kozuki Oden's heroic sacrifice, but also due to his diary and the brainwashing of the three samurai. It can only be said that Kaido does not understand the education of his children at all, and this kid has had some problems with his brain since he was young.

In Lu Li's opinion, Kaido is of course an out-and-out brutal ruler and an evil man, but he is definitely one of the best fathers in the world of One Piece.

Let's take a look at what other "famous fathers" in One Piece do? Usopp's father, Jesus, ventured out to sea in pursuit of freedom, abandoning his young son and seriously ill wife to go out and travel.

In order to carry out the revolution, Luffy's father, Monkey D. Dragon, sent his son to Windmill Town to be raised since he was a child and he rarely saw his son.

Sanji's father, Vinsmoke Judge, treated Sanji, a "defective product", as nothing at all, and in the end Sanji escaped with the help of his sister.

These fathers don't care about their children at all, but Usopp still worships his father. Although Sanji hates his father, he still treats him as a family member.

Look at Kaido again. He did not abandon Yamato to be raised by others. Instead, he kept her by his side, fed her well and provided her with everything she wanted. He even let his men call her the Demon Princess. He is truly a model good father in the world of pirates.

But a good father has a filial daughter like Yamato. Lu Li now finally understands why Kaido likes to drink so much and becomes autistic and likes to commit suicide after getting drunk...

"By the way, you said you were a Devil Fruit user, so you were handcuffed and had no strength. What fruit did you eat?"

Lu Li asked the question even though he knew the answer, mainly because he was really curious about his roommate's inner world.

"Oh, I am the user of the Animal Type, the Inu-Inu Fruit, the Mythical Beast Species, the Great Mouth True God Form. It is said that this is the sacred beast of Wano Country. But I am Kozuki Oden, the one who is to found the country of Wano Country, so this is only natural."

Yamato said confidently.

"Mythical Beast Species, where does such a rare fruit come from?"

Lu Li asked curiously. He was really curious about the detailed process of Yamato obtaining the fruit.

"It happened a long time ago. I remember when I was imprisoned by Kaido and was extremely hungry, a fruit fell from the hole in the skylight and I ate it directly."

Yamato recalled, "After eating it, I found out it was a devil fruit, and I gained this ability."

At this point, she smiled, "Brother Lu, let me tell you, Kaido came to me at that time and told me that this was a rare mythical beast fruit that he had obtained with great difficulty. Don't you think it's funny? He didn't take good care of such an important fruit, and it was blown away from the car by the storm. Don't you think he's stupid? He couldn't even take care of an important fruit."

She laughed and said, "Finally, he ended up in my prison. It turns out that Kozuki Oden is blessing me, bringing bad luck to Kaido and giving me good luck."

Lu Li fell completely silent after hearing this, looking at Yamato as if he were a fool.

"You don't really think that's the truth, do you? It just happened that the wind blew the fruit away, blew it up into the sky, and it fell through the skylight of your prison, and you just happened to eat it when you were hungry?"

Lu Li felt that it was outrageous that Yamato even believed in such a coincidence.

Afterwards, Kaido came to explain to her what this fruit was and how hard it was for him to find it. Lu Li felt that Kaido was quite arrogant.

He wanted to give his daughter a top-quality fruit, so he had to beat around the bush. But after Yamato ate it, he was afraid that Yamato didn't know how good the fruit was, so he came out to explain it to her.

He really made me cry to death.

"Is it not?"

Yamato looked at Lu Li in confusion.

"Why do I feel like your father wanted to give you a powerful devil fruit, but was afraid that you wouldn't eat it if he gave it to you directly, so he gave it to you in this way?"

Lu Li said bluntly.

Yamato was stunned for a moment. The point raised by Lu Li was a 'blind spot' that she had never thought about before. "Impossible, absolutely impossible! He wanted to kill me, how could he give me such a powerful devil fruit? He himself said it would be a waste if he gave it to me."

"Actually, you're not dead, are you?"

Lu Li really couldn't help but want to teach this unfilial daughter a lesson. Although he didn't like brutal pirates like Kaido, he felt that Teacher Kai was too wronged.

Most importantly, he felt annoyed when he saw Yamato, who had a father who loved her very much but didn't know how to cherish him.

When he was a child, he also longed for parental love, but he had no parents. As a result, he was an abandoned child, so he actually envied children who had parents.

Yamato wants to resist Kaido's tyrannical rule. If she were not Kaido's daughter, she would certainly be a simple and positive character. But the problem is that she is Kaido's daughter, which is very awkward.

For example, the only prince of the Qing Dynasty kept clamoring to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. The emperor did not kill him, which was already a great favor to him. How else could he love him? Should he just let him overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty?
Even if Yamato wants to resist Kaido's tyranny, Lu Li believes that there is a way that is more in line with normal people's thinking. She can use her identity and power to improve the situation in Wano Country, and eventually inherit the family property. Wouldn't she be able to liberate Wano Country?
Why does she have to be so depressed that she wants to kill her father?
"I'm not dead... because I'm Kozuki Oden."

When Yamato responded to Lu Li's words, he paused for an inexplicable moment.

"But Kozuki Oden is dead. He himself is not an immortal legend. He was defeated by Kaido. What makes you think you can escape death so many times at the hands of Kaido?"

Lu Li asked back, "Or do you think you are stronger than Kozuki Oden?"

This time Yamato was completely confused. She felt that Lu Li’s words had put her in some kind of logical contradiction.

Kozuki Oden is her idol and the person she aspires to be, but she is certainly not as strong as Kozuki Oden.

But the fact is that Kozuki Oden did lose to his father, so it was normal for her to feel that she could not beat her father for the time being.

But Lu Li pointed out the core of the problem, that is, why could he, who is not as strong as Kozuki Oden himself, still be alive after challenging Kaido so many times.

You know, Kozuki Oden only challenged Kaido once, and was defeated and executed.

Yes, why didn’t my father execute himself after knocking himself unconscious?
