Chapter 518 I think I overlooked something
The flowers inside are growing very well.
The breath of life and prosperity are palpable.
However, this contrasted sharply with the pale-faced woman on the hospital bed.
It was unusually quiet inside.
All that could be heard was a faint breathing sound.
Why do I feel somewhat uneasy?
At the same time, Katakuri also opened the door.
It was exactly as he had envisioned.
The flowers inside the vase are blooming proudly.
The girl on the hospital bed was so pale that she almost blended into the white sheets.
She is indeed a beauty.
But she looks very haggard.
His breath was very faint.
He was also thin and weak.
It is as fragile as a dying moth.
It is indeed a pity to see this.
After confirming that it was indeed Elena they had seen, Katakuri was relieved.
It seems I was just overthinking things.
He's just a patient.
What can someone so weak do?
She looks to be only in her early twenties.
"Take care of her and try your best to get her through this."
Katakuri said something in the captain's direction.
"Ah, yes."
The captain agreed respectfully.
After completing the inspection, Katakuri returned to the ship.
Although everything is fine...
but……
Katakuri always felt like he was missing something.
what is it then?
……
Honey Island, in the World of Nations region.
Today, the World Kingdom has grown to a considerable size.
Dozens of islands, large and small, and dozens of races together formed the Kingdom of Ten Thousand.
As far as the nation is concerned, the world is still very young.
In the year 1487 of the Sea Calendar, Big Mom created this fairytale kingdom.
From that time onward, all her children were born on Cake Island.
They were able to have a safe and stable childhood.
Of course, the increase in the number of children did not slow down the emperor's pace of invasion.
At first, there was only Cake Island.
However, as Big Mom used her methods, more and more islands became her territory.
For example, Candy Island, Nut Town, Milk Island, and Butter Island.
Managing these islands is indeed very troublesome.
Big Mom's wisdom and strengths do not lie in politics.
She rose to prominence through martial arts, and may also perish through martial arts.
He could be described as both an emperor and a general.
Big Mom believes in the power of blood ties.
Therefore, she and her children became the island's administrators, that is, the ministers.
Although the Queen does not participate in specific governance, her power is supreme.
The strong have absolute say.
Therefore, even her own children were very afraid of the Queen.
Killing one's own child—a mother is capable of such a thing.
After all, she was not only a mother, but also an emperor.
And they were not only children, but also her subjects.
Because of this distorted relationship, the feelings between siblings are very complicated.
Love certainly exists.
However, the struggle for interests is naturally inevitable in this process.
With Whole Cake Island as the center, the closer an island is to the center, the older the minister is.
After all, older children do have a better competitive edge.
They established their territory early on, so they can rest easy.
However, as the power of the Wan Kingdom expanded, the slightly younger children also began to compete.
Currently, there are 62 adult children, but the number of islands is less than half the number of children.
This naturally involves some intrigue and backstabbing.
In such families, power is a symbol of strength.
Nobody wants to fall behind.
However, with so many people, some will naturally stand out.
This is the current situation with Crackers and Snag.
Crackers, need I say more?
He was born before his mother established the kingdom.
Having experienced hardship and seen the world.
He is second only to Katakuri among the boys in the family.
Snag, on the other hand, was much happier than his hard-won brother.
He was born on Cake Island.
Aside from his fear of his mother, he has basically never suffered any losses.
His talent surpassed that of most of his siblings.
Not long ago, he defeated his third sister, Lady Amand, in a sparring match, officially letting everyone in the family see his strength.
He thus earned the position of a general.
The Four Generals are positions that can only be obtained by the four strongest members of a family.
Although Perospero's brother is equally qualified.
However, he has already assumed the position of strategist.
As the eldest son, he also felt that he should give his younger siblings more opportunities.
So eventually, power shifted to Snag.
The family has four generals.
Katakuri, Smoothie, Cracker, and Snag.
As the youngest of the four Sweet Commanders, Snag was naturally full of arrogance.
Because of his youth, he also had a naive understanding of power.
The task of defending the island is incredibly boring.
Even though we have to fight a war, we must also protect our homes.
That's why Katakuri left Cracker and Snag behind.
Cracker had no objection to this.
He is someone who hates pain and is afraid of trouble.
It's great that I can stay and carry out the mission.
In short, it's something I desperately want but can't have.
However, Snag really wanted to go on the expedition with Smoothie and Katakuri.
However, Katakuri stopped him.
Katakuri's ideas are very simple.
Snag has no experience in major battles.
If he's allowed to come out, he'll definitely have to bring people with him.
If even Smoothie herself wasn't at ease, then Snag was even less likely to trust her.
So after much deliberation, he decided to let his younger brother stay.
This is safer.
The frontline combat strength is not that scarce.
This made Snag very bored.
He thought tonight would be another boring night.
