With a disappointed expression and teary eyes, Little Yamato touched her two index fingers together and gazed at the place where Birdy had vanished.
"Are you sad because the little bird has disappeared? Don't worry, I can retrieve it for you, but you need to know that that bird was actually a small clone of me... it wasn't a bird in the literal sense of the word." As soon as he finished speaking, Rob broke into paper shreds and reassembled them to form a small white bird carrying a messenger bag.
He flapped his wings and sat on Little Yamato's shoulder. He then started to nod his small head at her disappointed face.
Little Yamato regained a smile on her face after feeling relieved, but soon vapor and signs of confusion appeared on her head due to excessive thinking and bewilderment.
Why did Birdy turn into a big man... and why did the big man turn into Birdy!?
This is what Little Yamato couldn't understand.
"Little girl, there's no need to be disappointed. This bird is the result of my power. I have always sent you manga volumes through it because I was too busy to come to see you in person."
The bird flapped his wings and turned back into Rob.
"... Because you are very young, you may not understand what I mean correctly, but let me introduce myself first... You may or may not have seen me before, I am Rob... the creator of the One Piece manga you read right now. It's nice to meet you, Yamato-chan."
Rob approached the level of Little Yamato's eyes and gently patted her head.
Little Yamato's eyes widened after hearing that name.
"You... you... you're the author of One Piece?!" Yamato looked at the volume in her hand, then at the big man who was towering over her with kindness. She blinked and shuddered.
"Is the heartless Kaido of that caliber... why would he leave a young girl in this cold cave without protection... after all, you're not affected by Oden even as a reason... what about your mother?"
Rob carried the absent-minded girl in his arms, he wasn't asking her these questions, but he was just wondering out loud.
"My mother?"
When Little Yamato heard her father's name, she shuddered in fear, but Rob's warm embrace soon soothed her. But when she heard the word "her mother," she tilted her head away.
"Sigh... Well..."
"What about Birdy...?" asked Little Yamato.
Rob looked at the cute little girl with a helpless expression... how could a father bear to leave such a wonderful little girl outside.
Rob raised his head, and his eyes pierce the clouds to see the flying island above this island.
There was no doubt about it, both Kaido and Shiki were together there. He could feel the nearest art store there after all.
Rob had already decided, he was going to take this girl under his wing, he wouldn't leave her to an inhuman beast like Kaido.
"Little girl, Birdy is with me, it's safe... I'll give it to you if you agree to become my adopted daughter... what do you think?"
The small girl's face lit up with a smile when she heard that she could get the small bird again. But she didn't understand what it meant to become "his daughter by adoption."
"In short, would you like to go with me to a warmer house than this?" Rob pointed to the cold cave in front of them.
Little Yamato gasped strongly, surprising Rob.
It appeared that she already understood her surroundings...
Usually, Rob prohibited children under 10 years old from reading manga, and they could only watch anime. But, since this island did not have an art store, Rob made an exception for Yamato since he discovered her existence last year.
Birdy was not just a messenger bird assigned to Yamato, but a clone of him with some combat power.
Despite Yamato being only a small child of fewer than 3 years old, unable to read or write yet, she was still able to understand and read the manga book provided by the Art Store. This was a unique feature of the Art Store, as even animals, not to mention people who haven't learned how to read yet, could comprehend it.
Why all this?
Well, Rob had made a promise to himself to change the fate of all beloved manga characters, even the evil ones like Hogback, he gave them a chance to change when he realized that he was still a good person. This included amazing characters like Yamato and dramatic background characters that Oda so brilliantly made tragic.
However, for mature women who were likely to be someone else's wives in the manga, Rob didn't initially intend to get involved in such a situation. But after he met them in very appropriate circumstances that gave birth to the seed of love, he didn't care about the background created by someone else.
He will only pay attention to the background that he created. This is what was required of him and what will be required of him in the future.
The smiling face of Rob reflected in Yamato's orange eyes, for some reason she felt familiar warmth from that smile... that's how Birdy smiled.
Without realizing it, she hugged his face tenderly. Rob was not disturbed by the small horn that dug into his cheek.
"Do you understand now that I am the same Birdy you know? Hahaha~!"
"... What about this, Kaido is still your father after all, before I bring you home I need to take care of him personally. Stay here, I will come back to accompany you later."
As he said that, Rob flattened his hand and created a comfortable cushion-like seat made of paper, he put Little Yamato on it and returned the manga book to her before leaving.
His face was aimed towards the flying island in the sky, where Kaido was.
...
"Ahahahahahaha!! Usopp is so bad! Hahahaha!" Little Yamato laughed.
As he walked, Rob smiled upon hearing Little Yamato's laughter, which appeared to be a result of her seeing the extent of Usopp's defeat of Perona.
"It looks like Usopp's reputation with the young girls is going to be even more tarnished after this chapter, Haha."
"Who in the world uses scarecrows to fight against girls? Haha! That's the worst crime against them."
"Oh, speaking of Perona, it looks like she's going to give birth soon."
The paper body of Rob began to rise off the ground and calmly float towards the islands in the sky.
...
West Blue, Ohara:
A new tourist ship arrived at the port, and dozens of enthusiastic tourists disembarked from it.
Among the tourists, there was a 20-something woman with pink hair and a bulging belly.
Without a doubt, she was a pregnant woman...
The noticeable things about her were her tight clothing and the purple veins on her body, which meant that she was another victim who had arrived at the paradise on earth named Ohara.
"M-My little Perona... we have arrived... you can go out into the world now," she said as she lost consciousness on the sidewalk.
Quickly, an ambulance arrived and took the woman to the nearest hospital.
