Pirate, I am the demon fox that brings disaster to the world!

(Purely fictional, please don’t criticize if you don’t like it)

The so-called "recreation of childishness" is naturally the product of the awakening of the Childishness Fruit, and it is also a new ability that Yakumo Shiro has explored after awakening a few days ago.

By participating in several experiments on monster girl creation, Yakumo Shiro has gained a better understanding of this devil fruit, whether it is the understanding of the concept of "childlikeness" or a deeper control.

Although childishness sounds like a positive word that is full of sunshine and righteousness, it is often used to describe innocent, pure, lively and lovely children, and is also associated with rich imagination.

But if you don't pay close attention, you may not realize that what is hidden behind this word is an illusory castle in the air. Most of the thoughts and ideas have no reliable basis, but are nothing more than conjectures based on one's own will and superficial experience.

It's like creating a "flood" to submerge the nest out of curiosity about whether ants can swim, or tearing off a pair of wings without hesitation to observe butterflies...

Everything in the world is just a toy that provides entertainment value, because everything is unknown and therefore, everything is worthless.

So why do people love and even constantly praise something that is particularly vibrant only in childhood and adolescence?

In addition to dissatisfaction with one's own situation, it is also a nostalgia for the unrestrained state of wandering on the borders. At such a stage, people do not need to consider the consequences of their words and deeds, nor do they need to struggle desperately for survival and life.

The saying "ignorance is not a crime" is just like this.

Similarly, at this stage, people’s concepts, thinking abilities, and cognitive abilities have not yet been finalized. Their understanding of many things is based on words and deeds or their own random thinking, which leads to many strange ideas and behaviors.

For example, things that were originally dead will come to life and talk and laugh with you, kittens and puppies can understand human language, toy robots and toy trains will follow your instructions and perform a series of actions... Although these are just imaginary things, there are always many people who enjoy them and find it difficult to get out of them for a long time.

Well, to sum up, childishness has its dark side - that is, childishness is curiosity and imagination, and therefore childishness is based on ignorance. Childishness and the results caused by it are not guilty. The scope of childishness is extremely free!

All of the above points to a unified result, that is, a complete self!

What Yakumo Shiro has to do is to go as far as possible in this direction, until the end of this journey - the real kingdom of childlike fun!

This time, giving Monster Girl a new understanding is a small experiment after awakening. Unlike the previous simple transformation of human flesh into a puppet that can be manipulated at will, the awakened Childlike Fruit expands the scope of this ability to something more abstract.

For example, will, thinking...

It's never about what you can do or what you want to do, but what I want you to do. Such a simple and crude ability is enough to become the most dangerous weapon in this ocean.

If a person cannot control his own free will, how can he talk about strength or future?

It would be better to just find a random mountain and become a bandit king. If you are lucky, you might be able to teach any big shot a lesson~

"Hmm... I have a long way to go. Now, including Zeno, I only have four monster girls. Although with Yaoye, Yamato and the others, plus Panda and Sephis, I have gathered a considerable force under my command, but it is still far from the real top force!

At least we should be called the Iron Wall Pirates like Red-Haired Shanks!"

"Tsk! Why did my dad get so stuck with his devil fruit? If my power increases, doesn't that mean the power of the Beasts Pirates increases? Isn't a pretty and capable monster girl a hundred times stronger than those pirates who fish in troubled waters?

If I don't lay a solid foundation, who will help him deal with the sun god Nika in the future? I'm not happy. This old guy will just wait to be beaten into the lava and take a bath in the future!

Who knows if there will be any comebacks or counterattacks in the real pirate world...

Destiny, it seems, really exists..."

Turning his gaze away from the monster girls of various shapes around him who were staring at each other warily, Yakumo Shiro gradually pulled his thoughts back from wandering in the sky and faced the current situation again.

The story began not long ago. While Caroline and Sphinxline were adapting to the "childhood re-creation", Yakumo Shiro also called the spider girl Blaine and the black scorpion girl Zeno who were created before, and reconstructed their thinking together.

Fortunately, the effect of the ability is very obvious. After experiencing the initial confusion, the four of them all had obvious emotional fluctuations. Their facial expressions, words and behaviors became more vivid and lively.

However, there was one thing that Yakumo Shiro had not expected - that was the generation gap between memory and emotion.

Using the power of the Childlike Fun Fruit, Yakumo Shiro only made minor adjustments to the consciousness and emotions of Zeno and the others and opened the door to the four of them. Naturally, he had no intention of shaking their memories, so the memories of the monster girls before that were preserved intact.

However, what made Yakumo Bai secretly careless was that the emotional impact brought by the memories was not something these ignorant monster girls could digest in a short time.

The newly born Sphinx was fine, its tail was relatively well behaved, but the worst case was Zeno, who had been born for a year!

As Yakumo Shiro's creation, subordinate, and lover, Zeno naturally believed in him as her highest faith, and was always paying attention to his every move, waiting for orders, or being alert to hidden threats, or simply observing her master... Even though she didn't understand what her actions meant at the time...

At this moment, along with the true awakening of the soul, the valve of emotions rushed towards Zeno like a tide, carrying the memories of the past year. The strong impact almost made Zeno temporarily forget the primary and secondary identities. At this time, he was tightly wrapping his tail around Yakumo Shiro's thigh, while vigilantly watching Caroline and the other two.

"Logically speaking, I am the first one to arrive, so naturally I should accompany the master to the tea party in the near future. You guys should first master the use of domineering aura!"

"Oh? Domineering? Is this what you're talking about?"

Hearing this, Blaine, who was wearing a black low-cut dress that revealed half of the bright full moon, had a voluptuous and well-proportioned figure that looked no different from an ordinary human being, and whose hair was neatly tied up to give her a spider-like appearance, smiled and said, at the same time, the black armament color covered her hands in the blink of an eye.

"..."

Seeing this, Zeno pursed his lips in silence. With such a strong physical fitness, it was only a matter of time for the monster girl to master the domineering power. However, he did not expect that this woman would master it so quickly! It was only two or three months since her birth, right?

I didn't expect that Blaine looked so lazy in private. Just like her habit, she could lie in the spider silk room she wove for a whole day, but in fact she was so frivolous?

"Huhu~ If I can go with my master by mastering Haki, then maybe I can have a share of this position too? Don't you think so, master?"

As he said that, Blaine smiled and took one of Yakumo Shiro's arms, secretly playing to his greatest advantage.

"Not really..."

Enjoying Blaine's advantage with a normal expression, Yakumo Shiro couldn't help but smile bitterly. Who could have thought that the outburst of emotions would accumulate like this, even he was caught off guard?

"No, no! This isn't fair! As a senior, you should consider the feelings of the newbies, right? You should also bring us to the tea party!"

Seeing this, Caroline and Sphinxlin immediately formed a united front and protested in dissatisfaction.

"Eh? You know, that's the Big-Mom Pirates over there. If there's any emergency, can you protect your master? You can't kill everyone with your ability and strength alone."

Blaine squinted his eyes and said disdainfully.

"That...that..."

In response, the two snakes were so angry that they stammered and were unable to speak.

"Ahem~ Alright! There's no need to argue about this kind of thing. If you all want to go, why don't you just go!"

Seeing that things were getting increasingly wrong, Yakumo Bai interrupted directly.

"Besides, this is our first appearance on this ocean! How can we not show off our strength? It's time to join this great battle for supremacy!"
