Chapter 41
The Daughter of Yamato, Firework Proudmoore

【Congratulations on marrying your fourth wife. You have been awarded +5 years of lifespan.】

【Your wife Yamato gave birth to a child for you, and you have been awarded +5 years of lifespan.】

【Your offspring has received a blessing from an unknown timeline, gaining the Wisdom Blessing “Joyful Destiny.”】

“Another Wisdom Blessing? But... Joyful Destiny?”

Erik stroked his chin, carefully studying the information.

【Joyful Destiny】: Originating from the 《Honkai: Star Rail》 universe, those who embark on this Destiny are known as Destiny Walkers. Walkers follow their Destiny, drawing strength from it.

The explanation was simple, but Erik didn’t immediately understand what it meant.

He knew that Honkai: Star Rail was a game with a vast background.

But Destiny, a concept only existing in that universe.

Thinking about it, his newly born child should be the first Destiny Walker in the world of One Piece.

“Let’s go, take you to see the child.”

After getting dressed, Erik thought for a moment, and a shadow immediately swallowed them both.

Shadow Space.

Alliance Naval Base, Training Ground.

“You are too weak! How can you become powerful soldiers with such weak training?”

A burly man with his arms crossed, coldly reprimanded the soldiers training in the training ground.

The soldiers grumbled, even Calvin was forced to follow orders, undergoing training that was ten times more intense than usual.

“Ka… Kaido!?”

Yamato was startled by the sight of the burly man, her voice stuttering.

The man stood seven meters tall, with flowing black hair and a pair of dragon horns on his head. He had a fierce expression, as if he could devour people at any moment.

“Humph, Yamato, you dare escape from Onigashima!”

The man noticed Yamato and coldly snorted in displeasure.

Yamato couldn’t speak, she was scared.

How could that damn Kaido be here?

“She is…”

Calvin tried to explain, out of breath, but before he could finish, he was glared at by “Kaido” and immediately shut his mouth in fright.

Erik’s expression was strange.

This definitely wasn’t Kaido, a translucent interface only he could see clearly showed the man’s identity.

【Name: Unnamed】

【Age: 12】

【Father: Proudmoore Erik】

【Mother: Yamato】

【Wisdom Blessing: Joyful Destiny】

This “Kaido” was his newly born child.

However, even if it was Yamato’s child, Kaido’s grandson, he couldn’t possibly look exactly like Kaido at just 12 years old.

Transformation abilities?

Truly worthy of Joyful Destiny, a prankster, even daring to scare his own mother.

“Come here.”

“Ehehe~ Caught me?”

A playful and cute little girl’s voice came from Kaido’s mouth. Then, with a transformation, the child’s true appearance was revealed before his parents.

She was about 1.5 meters tall, inheriting Yamato’s devil horns, though much shorter.

She had long white hair tied in twin tails and large, mischievous eyes.

“Daddy, how did you know it was me?”

The little girl hopped over to Erik, then giggled at Yamato: “Mommy, did I scare you? I transformed into grandpa, do I look like him? Do I look like him?”

For the first time in her life, Yamato was so angry that she wanted to hit someone. Was this her child, her daughter?

She was nothing like her mature and composed self!

Seeming to realize that she was about to be beaten by her mother, the little girl quickly hid behind Erik.

“Daddy, mommy wants to hit me! I’m still a kid!”

“Erik, move aside, I need to teach her a lesson!”

Yamato’s fists were clenched in anger, she almost scared her to death.

Erik comforted her: “This is your own daughter, don’t beat her to death.”

Yamato: “….”

“Alright, stop messing around, let’s give her a name.”

Erik touched the girl’s head, thought for a moment, “You’ll be called Hanabi from now on.”

“Hanabi? Hanabi likes this name!”

Proudmoore Hanabi’s eyes lit up, she liked the name, clinging to Erik’s arm and acting cute: “Thank you, daddy. Daddy is good, mommy is bad.”

Yamato had a cross appear on her forehead.

“Don’t be silly.”

Erik knew Hanabi was Joyful Destiny, a.k.a. prankster, even in front of her parents, she was faithfully following her Destiny.

“What power have you drawn from Joyful Destiny?”

“Daddy, I don’t really understand what you mean.”

Hanabi shook her head, Destiny was something that came naturally to her.

She instinctively knew that doing so would receive feedback from her Destiny, and her power would grow.

“Tell me, what can you do?” Erik asked.

“I can transform!”

Hanabi performed a demonstration on the spot, transforming into Erik, then Yamato, and even transforming into Kaido again.

It was perfect, even her voice could be perfectly imitated.

“Exactly the same, what an amazing ability!” Yamato finally calmed down, admiring her daughter in amazement.

“And there’s more, there’s more!”

Hanabi continued to showcase her abilities, she snapped her fingers, *snap*.

The next moment.

The soldiers training in the training ground all stood up, speaking in unison:

“I’m Hanabi~!”

Erik narrowed his eyes slightly, he saw extremely thin threads.

The threads extended from Hanabi’s fingers, connecting to all the soldiers.

“Controlling others with threads?”

“Hanabi calls it ‘Trick Thread’, those entangled by it will become puppets on a stage.” Hanabi said proudly.

It was thanks to this trick that she could make all these soldiers obediently listen to her, making them train twice as hard.

“Not bad.” Erik praised.

“Hmm, there are some other abilities, not so convenient to show here… Oh right, Hanabi can also use Haki.”

When she said that, Hanabi’s gaze sharpened, and suddenly, a burst of Conqueror’s Haki erupted.

Boom!

It was as if the atmosphere itself was trembling, one by one, the soldiers of the Alliance Navy fell to the ground, spewing white foam. Even Calvin felt his consciousness become hazy, and he fell unconscious with a thud.

“Conqueror’s Haki!”

Yamato opened her mouth in astonishment, then excitedly embraced her daughter: “As expected of my daughter! This Conqueror’s Haki is already stronger than mine!”

“Wuuu!”

Hanabi couldn’t speak, her face was buried in her mother’s chest, unable to breathe.

Erik was equally happy, Hanabi had truly inherited her mother’s bloodline and awakened Conqueror’s Haki from birth.

Of course, what made him even happier was the prompt from the system.

【Your child Hanabi has released Conqueror’s Haki. You have simultaneously obtained this ability!】
