The reason Inuarashi had suddenly changed his mind was not actually hard to guess.
Wasn't it simply that discovering Shirahoshi had an ability similar to Kozuki Oden's had directly earned her something as bizarre yet reasonable as "Zou reputation +1000"?
Well, part of the reason might also have been that, after witnessing the true power of Klee Meow's bombs, Inuarashi had once again entertained his earlier idea of joining forces with Xie Wen to take on Kaido.
Cat Viper, however, knew none of this, though Shirahoshi's display of an ability similar to Kozuki Oden's meant he had no objection to taking Xie Wen and the others to see the Poneglyph either.
But...
"You bastard! You just told outsiders our secret like it was nothing! You really were the one who tipped off Kaido back then, weren't you?!"
Cat Viper started picking a fight with Inuarashi out of habit, and insults alone were not enough. He even lunged straight at him, ready to fight.
"You..."
"Have you two had enough, meow?!!!"
Just as Inuarashi was about to retaliate, both physically and verbally, a surge of Conqueror's Haki suddenly bore down on them. Scarlet Tiger-sama glared fiercely at the two irresponsible fools, every hair on her body standing on end.
"You're both grown old! Why are you behaving worse than children, meow?! And you're the rulers of this country, aren't you? How can you put your personal grudges ahead of the other minks so casually, meow?!"
Hua Mei Meow had actually been holding back her anger ever since hearing about their feud earlier. However, she felt that she was not truly a mink, so it was not quite her place to interfere in Zou's internal affairs. But as the two grew more and more outrageous, Scarlet Tiger-sama finally could not take it
