The red light in the Kirin Lion's eyes faded, and it no longer showed any of its previous resistance.
"Kirin Lion, go back and make your subordinates the new kings and guardians of this island, then you shall leave with me."
Wang Shi gave orders to the obedient Kirin Lion.
Anyway, the island is remote enough, and it's protected by special natural phenomena like clouds and ocean currents.
If it weren't for Batler Earl's long-term search by biologists, probably very few people would have found this island.
Now, under the control of the Seven-Star Dragon Sword of the Wang Shi, Earl Batler will no longer come to this island.
So this Rare Animal Island should be quite complete.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Under the influence of the Seven-Star Sword Spirit, the Kirin Lion instinctively obeyed Wang Shi's commands without finding anything unreasonable about it.
It did not lose its own consciousness; on the contrary, with the blessing of the Seven-Star Dragon Sword, it was able to unleash even stronger combat power.
As Wang Shi jumped off the back of the Kirin Lion, the Kirin Lion spread its wings and quickly flew into the sky, returning to the highest peak of Crown Island.
It intends to entrust the island to Omu and Yazhu for protection.
···
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on acquiring a mythical beast mount."
Everyone congratulated Wang Shi, Aramaki and his group even wanted to find a flying pet on the island.
"Your Majesty, we also want mounts and pets."
Nami and the others looked at Wang Shi with anticipation. Even if there wasn't a mythical beast like the Kirin Lion, other rare beasts would be fine.
"These rare beasts are not like the Kirin Lion, which can talk, nor are they as intelligent."
However, if you want pets, I can have the Kirin Lion gather rare beasts so you can choose between them."
Wang Shi did not refuse the women's requests; he was not a saint and did not need to worry about the island's rare animals.
He was an emperor of an empire; he didn't need to consult the opinions of these weaklings about what he wanted.
If anyone takes a fancy to the two talking birds beside the Kirin Lion, Wang Shi will take them away with him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The women jumped for joy, hoping that this Rare Animal Island, inhabited by mythical creatures like the Kirin Lion, would produce some fine rare beasts.
On the summit of Crown Peak.
The Kirin Lion, which flew back quickly, immediately appointed Omu and Yazhu as the guardians of Crown Island, tasking them with taking care of the little boy Mobambi and the island.
Then, ignoring the pleas and attempts of the two birds and the person to stay, the Kirin Lion flew directly down the mountain.
"Don't abandon us, Your Majesty!"
"We can't protect everyone."
Omu and Yazhu chased after the Kirin Lion frantically, while Mobambi anxiously ran down the mountain to follow.
···
The Kirin Lion, having returned to Wang Shi's side, received new instructions from Wang Shi.
That is to summon all the Rare Animal Island of rare beasts.
The Empress and a group of Baron were choosing rare and precious pets.
Without the slightest hesitation, the Kirin Lion roared to the sky, summoning all the animals of the Rare Animal Island.
All sorts of rare beasts and animals emerged from their hiding caves and forest thickets at the call of the Kirin Lion, the king of beasts.
They had absolute faith in their king.
They showed no fear at all when they saw the humans beside the Kirin Lion.
Because any human trusted by the king must be a good human, just like that harmless little boy Mobambi.
These rare animals come in all sorts of forms; they are practically hybrids of various species.
There are Long-Necked Lion, Rhino-Lion, Mane Hippo, Fin Elephant, and Fukuro with bat wings...
There was also a Trumpet Boar, whose snout was like two large trumpets, and its voice was very loud.
When Nami and her friends saw rabbits with antlers and zebra-striped goats, they all took out fruit and began to lure these rare animals.
Wang Shi had no interest in these weak and rare beasts.
They're all strangely shaped, drawn haphazardly by some Oda, with absolutely no aesthetic sense.
However, many mythical beasts seem to be combinations of various animals.
Monsters Mythical Zoan Ushi-oni, Nue, Itsumade.
If a rare beast possesses various abilities, it can be upgraded to a mythical beast.
"My King! Don't leave us!"
As everyone was selecting rare beasts, two voices rang out.
Both the old parrot Omu and the big black Karasu, Yazhu, can fly, just not very fast.
"A talking rare beast? Is it a mythical beast?"
Aramaki and the others' eyes lit up, and all their gazes turned to the two large birds.
A bald, fat old parrot, and a decent-looking black Karasu.
"I want that Karasu!"
Aramaki spoke first; Karasu that could fly and talk was somewhat in line with his style as Duke of Impalement.
It would be even better if this Karasu were a bit fiercer and carried an ominous aura.
Upon hearing Aramaki speak, Eric and the others could only shut their mouths.
As for this old parrot with an extremely poor appearance, I had absolutely no desire to keep it as a pet.
Even if it could talk, it would be the same.
Ugliness is the original sin.
"Your Majesty, these two birds are the guardians I have chosen for Crown Island."
The Kirin Lion quickly spoke up, expressing its unwillingness for the two birds to leave the island.
It obeys the will of the Wang Shi, but retains its own ideas and thoughts towards others.
"Let them choose for themselves."
Wang Shi spoke indifferently, but he certainly looked down on these weak and rare beasts.
"Aramaki, this is just an ordinary rare beast that has learned to talk; it has no strength whatsoever."
Wang Shi reminded Aramaki that taking these weaklings out to sea would be basically useless.
"It doesn't matter, as long as it can talk, I can teach it Haki and martial arts."
Aramaki's fingers quickly transformed into vines, shooting towards the sky and binding the talking Karasu.
"Become my pet, little Karasu! Or I'll suck you dry."
Aramaki looked at the Karasu in his hand and revealed a fierce smile.
"My king, save me!"
Yazhu terror, struggling desperately, hoping for the Kirin Lion's rescue.
"Yazhu, they are my new master's subordinates, not bad people."
"If you wish to go to sea, then follow him; if you do not wish to go to sea, I beg His Majesty to have him release you."
The Kirin Lion shook its head and spoke softly to Yazhu Slayer.
"Your Majesty, you've acknowledged humans as your masters, yet you still intend to set sail?"
Yazhu and Omu were shocked, while Mobambi, who arrived later, was even more incredulous.
The Kirin Lion, a beast king that was incomparably sacred and powerful in his eyes, actually submitted to a human.
Wang Shi wasted no time and urged everyone to quickly tame the pets.
The Kirin Lion, along with two birds, one person, and numerous rare beasts, explains its journey to the sea.
After half an hour of selection, the women used food to lure and tame some adorable rare beasts.
As for Eric and Zoro, they didn't like these weaklings and none of them made a move.
Only Aramaki took a liking to this talking Karasu, using both threats and inducements to make it follow him.
In the end, the unloved old parrot Omu and the little boy Mobambi became the guardians of Crown Island.
In order to follow in the footsteps of Kirin Lion and become Kirin Lion's 'bodyguard', Yazhu actually became Aramaki's underling.
In Omu and Mobambi, and in the tearful gazes of many rare beasts.
Four warships slowly departed from Crown Island, Mobambi carried the flag of the Goa Empire.
