After the irritable Katakuri successfully awakened his Conqueror's Haki.
The delighted Fang Huo no longer cared about what gifts these guests had brought.
The fact that these kings could help Katakuri awaken his Haoshoku was the best gift of all.
For a moment, this talented monster, Katakuri, became the complete focus of everyone's attention.
However, after his first outburst of Conqueror's Haki, the little guy—who was just born and lacked stamina—quickly fell into a tired sleep.
Loki looked at the little fellow surrounded by many powerhouses, a hint of envy flashing deep in his eyes.
If only he had been born with the love of a father and mother, and the care of so many uncles and family members.
His childhood had been one of lonely calamity.
Kogetsu Shini and Kogetsu Ryuma, seeing everyone's attention on Katakuri, began to babble and shout unhappily.
They pulled at Rocks's hair and tugged on Newgate's white beard, trying hard to attract everyone's attention.
"Good boys~, you are also Daddy's treasures!"
Fang Huo handed the sleeping Katakuri to the eagerly waiting Rocks, then pulled Shini from Rocks's neck into his own arms.
With a flick of his finger, Ryuma, who was on Newgate's shoulder, also floated over.
Newgate watched helplessly as Ryuma left.
Fang Huo wanted to hold his sons, so he had no reason to refuse; he could only look at Katakuri and wait in line for Rocks to hand him over.
Fang Huo happily teased his two sons, trying his best to treat them all equally.
Stussy and Shimotsuki Furiko watched the happy Fang Huo and their sons, tender smiles appearing on their faces.
Their man didn't show favoritism or spoil Katakuri just because he had better talent, which filled their hearts with endless relief and love.
Their man was indeed the most handsome, strongest, and most loving husband in the world.
Uzumaki Erza's eyes held a hint of expectation; she also wanted to bear a powerful child for Fang Huo.
Ideally, a pair of twins.
Then she would have double the surprise.
"Wohahaha! Little Katakuri, you must call me Great Godfather from now on~"
Rocks looked at the sleeping Katakuri, liking him more the more he looked.
The human touch on this tyrannical Great Demon King was becoming more and more pronounced.
Fang Huo's family had, to some extent, already changed his personality.
"Hurry up, it's my turn, Rocks!"
Newgate was impatient to hold his third godson, a little monster with innate Conqueror's Haki.
"What's the rush! I am the Great Godfather! I need to properly bond with Katakuri."
Rocks turned around while holding Katakuri, leaving Whitebeard Newgate staring at the back of his head.
"..."
Newgate clenched his fists; he really wanted to give this bastard Captain a punch.
"I am the Third Godfather!"
Golden Lion Shiki pushed Redfield and Silver Axe Fierce to the back, speaking dominantly.
If these guys dared to fight him for the spot, he wouldn't mind going all out against them!
For Katakuri's sake, he might even kill Redfield and Fierce!
Redfield ignored Golden Lion Shiki, maintaining his cold and aloof manner, seemingly having no desire to compete with Shiki.
Silver Axe Fierce also remained cool, but when Kiel Bastard—Fang Huo's number one fanboy—tried to squeeze in front of him...
Silver Axe Fierce gave Bastard a cold look, and his fingers silently transformed into sharp blades!
Bastard immediately gave a dry laugh and stood back obediently.
He didn't want to fight a lunatic like Fierce.
This infant meet-and-greet quietly passed under the orderly queuing of a group of reckless brutes... That evening, in Orsto Castle.
In addition to the Cadres of the Rocks Pirates, high-level members from various villages of the Giant Race attended this private banquet.
Among them were Carreras, the leader of the Great Hammer Corps, and Eisen D. Oars Jr., the strongest warrior of the Great Hammer Corps, representing both the Corps and the high-level officials of Artisan Village.
Blue Ogre Dorry and Red Ogre Brogy represented the Warrior Village, West Village, as well as the Giant Warrior Pirates.
Yaruru, the former Captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates, was both a heroic leader of the Warrior Village and an elder of all Elbaf.
Rocks and the other powerhouses sat waiting for Fang Huo to announce the news about the pluto battleship at the banquet.
"That fellow Fang Huo is finally stopping the secrecy; it seems Katakuri's awakening of Haoshoku made him very happy."
Golden Lion Shiki and Silver Axe Fierce had endured Fang Huo's riddles for a very long time.
They had known for a while that Fang Huo had prophesied news of the Pluton.
But this guy just wouldn't say anything.
Even Rocks had wanted to beat the bastard several times.
At the banquet, Charlotte Linlin, Stussy, and Shimotsuki Furiko each held their own sons, sitting with Uzumaki Erza on Fang Huo's left and right sides.

"The Pluton is right beneath the Guardian Waterfall of Wano Country!"
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, under the expectant gazes of Rocks and the others, Fang Huo slowly revealed the news regarding the Ancient Weapon!
"Back then, Elbaf, Wano Country, and Fish-Man Island were all allies of Joy Boy, the user of the Sun God Nika ability."
"Joy Boy also had the Stonemason Family of Wano, the Kozuki Family, carve the poneglyphs."
"The pluto battleship was likely hidden in Wano Country by Joy Boy."
"Therefore, to retrieve the pluto battleship, the Guardian Wall of Wano Country must be destroyed!"
Fang Huo continued, intentionally glancing at Shimotsuki Furiko sitting beside him and Fūgetsu Kisaburō not far away.
Sure enough, these two core figures of Wano's Moon Family widened their eyes in shock.
They had no idea that Wano Country held such a secret.
"What! The Pluton is in Wano Country?"
"No wonder you included Wano Country in the territory of the Sacred Ancient Moon Empire so long ago!!"
"You Prophet, you're incredibly cunning!"
"Honestly, have you already gone to see the pluto battleship?"
Golden Lion Shiki was the first to jump out again, his tone sounding a bit frustrated.
The Pluton they had been obsessing over—maybe this Prophet had already found it and gotten his hands on it when he went to Wano to prepare Sea Stone before.
"Not really. When I went to Wano last time, it truly was just to purchase Sea Stone."
"By the way, before the Guardian Wall are destroyed, you landlubbers can't even go down into Wano's inner sea to see the Pluton."
"If Rocks wants to see it, he can see it anytime."
Fang Huo shrugged. When he went to Wano before, he hadn't even snatched the red poneglyph guarded by Kozuki Sukiyaki, let alone bother to look at the pluto battleship.
"Is it absolutely necessary to destroy the Guardian Waterfall?"
Shimotsuki Furiko's tone was a bit hesitant. Although she hoped Wano would end its isolationist policy, she didn't want Wano to lose the natural defense of the Guardian Waterfall.
"Lady Furiko, our Fūgetsu Kingdom, Shimotsuki Kingdom, and Ugetsu Kingdom also don't have a Guardian Waterfall, yet we still survive in the New World."
"So please trust the Patriarch's decision, and trust that the Kozuki, Shimotsuki, Fūgetsu, and Amatsuki families will surely be able to protect Wano Country."
Fūgetsu Kisaburō fell into a brief contemplation, but he quickly spoke up to provide a justification for Fang Huo—the Patriarch with great strategic vision—not wanting the Patriarch to worry about this issue.
