Despite being speechless at Wang Zhi actions, Sherwin had to admit that Kaido move truly made him feel like he was throwing a rat at a fine vase.
Along with that, Sherwin plan to seek revenge on Wang Zhi had to be postponed...
After all, no matter how cowardly Wang Zhi might be, he was still someone who could withstand the Blackbeard Pirates in the original story. In fact, according to Teach, if it hadn't been for the "Hero" Koby lending a hand, it was debatable whether he could have taken Fullalead.
Meow it all! If I had known, I would have gone to Fullalead first!
Sherwin slapped his thigh in frustration.
"By the way! Did you take any photos or videos while you were fighting Kaido?" Morgans immediately shifted his focus back to his news after informing Sherwin of Kaido recent situation. "After I knew you were going to Wano, I specifically sent a few reporters there, but there no news from them at all. If Kaido hadn't suddenly appeared and occupied Fullalead, I wouldn't even have known the battle on your end was over..."
Morgans complained and cursed, "Those idiots couldn't have been discovered by the Beast Pirates, could they? I repeatedly warned them not to do anything unnecessary!"
Emmmm...
Sherwin mouth twitched at those words.
If he wasn't mistaken, those few unlucky "colleagues" were most likely caught up in "Little Girl."
Since Sherwin didn't know Morgan men were present at the time, he only had Hiyori Kozuki notify the Wano samurai.
"...You should have told me in advance..."
Pinching the bridge of his nose helplessly, Sherwin briefly explained the situation at the time to Morgans.
Morgans: "..."
"Ahem!" Morgans cleared his throat awkwardly and then stiffly changed the subject. "So, do you have any videos or photos?"
There are, of course, videos and photos. Whether it was Klee Meow, Jinx, and Purah Meow wanting to further observe the entire process of the "Little Girl" explosion, or the subsequent data collection near the Ringo inland sea, they had all kept relevant visual records. Similarly, the previously live-streamed battle of the two Kaidos had also been recorded.
Moreover, transmitting this data was easy. Transponder Snails didn't care about things like internet speed or bandwidth as long as the corresponding attachments were installed and there was no signal interference, the Transponder Snail information network was fully capable of global synchronous transmission...
It was, above all, unscientific.
"Wait a minute! Sherwin! Wait a minute!"
Morgans, who was simultaneously watching the video Sherwin sent over, had not hung up the phone. Instead, he started shouting clamorously, "What going on with this cherry-blossom-colored dragon?! Two Kaidos?!!"
"Well... if you want to say there are two Kaidos, that wouldn't be entirely wrong..."
Sherwin had, of course, intentionally sent the video of the two Kaido battle to Morgans. Since Kaido had already received the "surprise" he gave him, there was no longer any need to hide Kaido Meow.
Similarly, there was no longer any need to keep the fact that they had scavenged Punk Hazard a secret... the World Government had known for a long time anyway.
After briefly explaining the Artificial Devil Fruit to Morgans and describing the situation of his own big Maine Coon cat in detail, Sherwin finally revealed his true intentions—
"Even though our Kaido coincidentally bears some resemblance to the other Kaido, he doesn't have any Beast Pirates under him. So, remember to mark his nickname as 'Flame'."
That right, the reason for revealing Kaido Meow situation to Morgans was simple: to fix the big cat nickname in advance, saving him from being saddled with titles like "Little Kaido" or "Cat Beast."
Morgans: "..."
Not again!
Sherwin had provided his own nicknames more than once now, and after Morgans rolled his eyes, he agreed anyway. However...
"Why 'Fierce'? I see that his abilities involve far more than just flames."
How the hell should I know what Capcom was thinking?
Sherwin rolled his eyes as well and answered decisively, "The place where Kaido stayed before is called Kamura Village. It their custom to call the strongest Hunter 'Fierce'."
This wasn't exactly a lie anyway in another world, there truly was a Kamura Village with such a custom.
"And..." Sherwin thought for a moment and added another reason, "Our Kaido transforms into a red dragon. That looks a bit like fire, doesn't it?"
"Where would you find cherry-blossom colored flames..." Morgans complained with a look of annoyance. "Fine, fine, I understa—cough, cough, hack!!! What the hell is this?!!"
Judging by that reaction, Morgans must have reached the part where the "little girl" exploded.
The little Ragdoll Felyne, who was being cradled in Sherwin arms and enjoying a massage from his hands, clearly guessed this as well...
"It Klee! It the bomb that Klee spent so much effort to finally make, Meow!"
(=＞＜=)
The little Ragdoll pounced in front of the portable Den Den Mushi on Sherwin wrist, showing off proudly to Morgans.
"Besides Klee, Jinx, Suika, and Purah Meow all helped out! Oh, and Sherwin he specifically got an explosive called Dyna Stone from the World Government for Klee!"
"Since Klee and Jinx are still minors, and Suika and Purah Meow look more like little Felynes, Jinx suggested naming this bomb 'Little Girl'!"
(=`=)
The little Ragdoll, eager to show off, blurted out everything related to 'Little Girl'. Her sense of secrecy was about on par with Kozuki Sukiyaki...
Fortunately, Morgans was on their side.
"Don't report the bit about the Dyna Stone the CP agent who helped coordinate that is on pretty good terms with me."
Sherwin didn't stop Klee Meow spirited boasting, only adding that final remark at the end.
With Morgan personality of loving chaos for its own sake, if Sherwin hadn't given that reminder, that bird really would have dared to report the Dyna Stone involvement as well.
Their previous act of killing so many Celestial Dragons at Mary Geoise had already caused Uncle Cody to take quite a hit.
If he hadn't always been so kind-hearted and had so many friends in the CP organization and the Navy to speak up for him, it wouldn't have just been a simple demotion he likely would have taken a trip to Impel Down.
After the data transmission was finished, Sherwin chatted with Morgans for a few more moments before hanging up the phone under Klee Meow urging.
He then took the little ragdoll cat, who was always ready to try again despite repeated failures, to the Wano Country festival to play goldfishing, an activity they had been doing for several days now.
