If I had known, I wouldn't have told them the story of "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King"...
Sherwin sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Although he himself was very fond of the Third Lotus Prince, for a person as big as him to cosplay as little Nezha, he still felt a bit embarrassed.
However, since his little darling had already set the stage, as a cat lover and daughter-devoted father, Sherwin naturally couldn't refuse Klee Meow small request.
What more...
Another equally cute thunder cat head had appeared on his other shoulder, and a pair of thunder cat paws had also appeared on his back, naturally holding a thunder hoop in the cat paws as well.
Monster Hunter Felyne Style: Three-Headed, Two-Armed, Four-Paw Mode!
Sighing helplessly once again, Sherwin was just about to pull out a suitable lance from his spatial pouch, when he suddenly felt a warm warmth on both sides of his head, and his body was once again covered in flames—and these flames were pink!
"Wait a minute! The little hair buns and the lotus armor on my head are really unnecessary!"
Sherwin hurriedly interrupted Klee Meow from "equipping" him.
Cosplaying little Nezha was already embarrassing enough, and if he were to add little hair buns and a lotus skirt, he would rather smash his head against Uranus and die.
"Alright then..."
(=`3=)
Klee Meow pouted and gloomily canceled the small pigtails and lotus armor that were currently taking shape.
Sherwin, letting out a sigh of relief, also finally picked out a Chinese-style spear from the huge pile of "famous blades" in his backpack—many of which he could no longer even remember the names of.
If he remembered correctly, this seemed to be a weapon he had collected back in the Kano Kingdom. Its original quality didn't even qualify it as a famous blade; Sherwin had simply bought it for his collection because of its design.
However, later on, when Purah Meow was modifying Sherwin weapons, she conveniently reinforced this spear as well. So, even though it didn't make it into the "Famous Blades Catalog," its quality was by no means inferior to the weapons listed in the book.
Most importantly, the spearhead was laced with Sea-Prism Stone, making it perfect for dealing with the Five Elders, who were Devil Fruit users.
"Mm, starting today, you'll be called the 'Fire-Tipped Spear'!"
Sherwin casually twirled the spear with a flourish, giving it a temporary name.
Once they got back, he would have Purah Meow help install a Flame Dial onto this spear, making it truly worthy of its name!
"Meow-hahahaha! We've turned into little Nezha! How come we never thought of playing like this before, meow!"
(=＞＜=)
Although not being able to add the small pigtails and lotus armor made Klee Meow a little bummed out, as Sherwin switched out the "Fire-Tipped Spear," the little ragdoll cat immediately cheered up again. The pair of flame cat paws behind her even began swinging the "Arm-Sash" like they were performing a traditional fan dance.
"Y-You guys! How dare you make such a fool of me!"
Saint Saturn gritted his teeth and growled low.
The expressions of the other three Five Elders and Saint Garling had also turned exceptionally grim.
Earlier, seeing Sherwin and the Felynes switching stances and changing weapons, they had thought they were preparing some ultimate move like "Little Girl," so they had all been on high alert, ready to intercept.
But now, hearing Klee Meow words, they were actually just playing around...
It would be a miracle if they weren't furious!
Moreover, beyond being angry at being looked down upon by Sherwin, the Five Elders also felt a trace of apprehension in their hearts.
Because... it was too similar!
Even without the abilities of the Nika Fruit, this laugh-and-joke fighting style was far too similar to Joy Boy back then!
Add to that the cat princess beside Sherwin who was even more like Joy Boy...
The Five Elder PTSD was practically acting up!
"Kill him!"
Saint Nusjuro roared, charging ahead toward Sherwin first in his centaur form.
In the blink of an eye, the "Shodai Kitetsu," carrying a bone-chilling frost, had already arrived before Sherwin, slashing straight toward his neck.
This speed was only slightly slower than when Sherwin activated Bullet Time, ranking among the top tier even among the many powerhouse opponents Sherwin had fought.
If it were when Sherwin had just stepped onto "Uranus," dealing with the horse bone—who possessed extreme speed and no shortage of flexibility—might have required some effort, but now...
"Zzzt—"
There was no need for Sherwin to move at all. The lightning cat paws clutching the "Universe Ring" had already blocked St. Ethanbaron V. Nasujuro attack. As for the stray cold air, it had zero effect on Sherwin...
After all, he still had the "Fleeing Sun" on him!
Monster Hunter Style: Divebomb: Heaven!
Taking advantage of Shermie Meow parrying St. Ethanbaron V. Nasujuro longsword, Sherwin countered with a direct spear thrust, while Klee Meow did not idle either, controlling the fire arm ribbon to coil around the horse skeleton.
Under the joint effort of one human and two Felynes, the horse skeleton was instantly dismantled into pieces, while the other attacks arrived late.
Ignoring St. Ethanbaron V. Nasujuro who was slowly regenerating, the "Wind Fire Wheels" under Sherwin feet spun rapidly as he took the initiative to charge into the encirclement of St. Figarland Garling and the other Five Elders, engaging them in a melee...
No wonder Sun Wukong and Nezha liked using this technique! It really is useful in group fights!
Furthermore, Sherwin had an advantage over them in that he did not need to distract himself with controlling the other two pairs of arms at all—they fought on their own.
Of course, if Shermie Meow and Klee Meow separated from Sherwin, group fighting would likely be even easier, but both Felynes were having a lot of fun, and "Uranus" had no intention of destroying the target island, so Sherwin naturally did not mind accompanying his little cuties to enjoy themselves.
The two little Felynes were also very sensible. After joining forces with Sherwin to cosplay Nezha for a while, they took the initiative to separate from Sherwin body.
"Brother Sherwin, Sister Shermie, buy Klee Meow some time meow!"
(=`ω=)
As the little Ragdoll spoke, she pulled a spherical bomb (nuke) from her little backpack—one that Sherwin would absolutely never forget.
"You fool!!!"
Saint Saturn, who had been in a constant state of "resurrection" due to being the weakest, yelled in panic, "Stop her, quickly!!!"
As for why Saint Saturn didn't charge in himself...
Naturally, it was because he had entered the "resurrection" state once again. Right now, he was nothing more than a head and less than half a shoulder. The only things he could do were fire off his Evil Eye—which wasn't particularly effective against Sherwin group anyway—and act as a backseat commander from the spawn point.
"Ha! Don't even think about getting past!"
Sherwin quickly put away the Spear, rapidly switching to a Sword and Shield set.
The mini longsword, capable of flexible guard points, was the most suitable for the current situation.
As for Shermie, she directly generated a cage of lightning, separating them from Klee Meow, who was in the middle of unsealing the "Little Girl."
Naturally, the Five Elders weren't going to sit around and await their doom. Not only did they work together with Saint Garling to break through Sherwin and Shermie blockade, but several structures resembling Prism Towers atop "Uranus" also began to glow.
Sherwin, however, remained unfazed. He simply didn't believe those light cannons would dare fire directly at Uranus itself. Besides, fast as the light cannons were, with the level of Observation Haki and reaction speed the three of them possessed, they still had plenty of time to dodge.
Wait a second!
Sherwin heart suddenly sank.
The Five Elders and Saint Garling were currently fighting him, so...
Who was controlling Uranus right now?!
