“Hachi, I’m a bit jealous.”
Under Queen’s command, the other members began testing various wedding equipment. Watching the magnificent scene, Rin had to admit that even though Setsuna was her biological daughter, a feeling of jealousy had crept into her heart.
“Doesn’t this just show that Setsuna is doing well? It looks like Zeraora is taking it seriously. So, I can be rest assured and leave Setsuna to him. But where did Setsuna go?”
After leaving them here, Ferren ignored them. Although there were many pirates around, they were all busy with various things, and it seemed like they had no time to bother with them.
But Hachi noticed something familiar. Two white ghosts suddenly flew past them, signaling them to follow.
Hachi immediately recognized them as Perona’s Hollow, the little things that had greatly embarrassed him before.
However, with age, Perona’s control over her abilities had grown stronger. The Hollow was no longer an uncontrollable bomb but a tool she could manipulate.
After following the Hollows, they saw Perona sitting on Bewear’s tail.
Setsuna and Zeraora, as the bride and groom, were busy preparing for something, so they had Perona come to meet them. However, she was lazy and let Hollow bring them over.
Whether it’s Minks and Zeraora, they don’t have any strange or complicated customs like not seeing the other or tradition of avoiding relatives. Soon, they saw the bride and groom who were sticking together.
They had both changed into brand new formal attire, and even Yanyan had some wedding candy decorations on it, making it stand out from other Alcremies.
“Sis! We’re here!”
Wanda bombarded Setsuna with questions, while Hachi chatted with Zeraora. It was their first time in Wano Country, and even though they were currently on Onigashima, they could see the sights of Wano Country at a glance.
Whether it was the towering Mt. Fuji or the Sky Islands above Onigashima, these were things they had never seen before. Zou Island’s scenery couldn’t compare to what they were witnessing here.
However, neither Hachi nor Rin had any questions about Wano Country’s Shogun.
Although the Kozuki family had an alliance with Zou Island, the ordinary citizens had vague memories of this alliance. A country they hadn’t seen for centuries wouldn’t easily evoke emotions.
Especially now that Zou Island was no longer under the rule of Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, they naturally had little interest in Wano Country’s affairs.
Moreover, they were here to attend a wedding.
Hachi had already gotten used to Zeraora’s presence, but for some reason, today he found Zeraora more and more unpleasant.
“Kid, after today, Setsuna is entirely yours. Don’t let her down, or…”
“Uncle, you don’t look like you can beat me. Anyway, you don’t need to worry about it. We’ll live well.”
After Hachi and Rin arrived, they didn’t just wait around. Instead, they explored Wano Country because the wedding was scheduled for the night.
Although the one piece world didn’t have fixed requirements for wedding time, night weddings were relatively rare. However, because it was the time set by Arceus, no one opposed it.
As night quickly approached, the lights within Onigashima were ready, but several bonfires were still lit around the periphery. Although electricity was already widespread on Onigashima, bonfires add a unique ambience to the banquet.
It was impractical to have these pirates obediently sit together like nobles and dine after the ceremony.
Previous testing had already confirmed that these equipment were functioning correctly. After nightfall, Queen once again appeared on the elevated platform; he is the host whenever any event happens within the Beasts Pirates.
“Alright, everyone. Those who have gathered here are all old members of the crew. As you all know, today is the wedding of Zeraora and Setsuna. The newlywed couple will get married today with all of you as witnesses.”
“You all come from different sea regions, so you can follow any customs you like, just don’t provoke them or no one will be able to stop them. Muhahaha.”
Customs on the sea were not uniform; each island had their own characteristics. However, when it comes to the wedding of a high-ranking officer, no one dares to cause trouble. There should be a limit to making jokes; if they caused trouble on someone else’s joyous day, getting beaten up would be a light punishment.
Moreover, sitting at the main seat were Kaido and Arceus. Kaido was there because he was the Governor-General of the crew, and Arceus appeared this time as the elder member of Zeraora’s family.
Although Zeraora’s identity in the outside world is of a Mink, as Arceus’ first-created Mythical Pokémon, he holds a secure position as the “firstborn of the god.” And with Setsuna having both parents present, Zeraora naturally cannot be left alone.
“No more nonsense. The wedding starts now! Lord Arceus himself has prepared a unique gift for the couple!”
Queen didn’t have the habit of giving long speeches and quickly got to the point. At this moment, everyone understood why the wedding was taking place at night.
Today is only a new moon, and the moonlight in the sky was not significant under the reflection of the lights. However, Arceus mobilized the power of the Pixie Plate. The moonlight and the stars seemed to be guided, and the light they emitted gradually condensed into figures.
The pure moonlight formed dancing spirits, and the different-colored starlight, manipulated by the power of the Pixie Plate, created a sky full of flying saucers. Spirits appeared holding various musical instruments, and starlight butterflies danced gracefully to the sound of music.
The power of the Pixie Plate ranked just below that of Spooky Plate and Mind Plate in terms of peculiarity, and it is also the most beautiful power in Arceus’ hands.
Accompanied by moonlight, starlight paved the way, and fresh grass formed a path. This was the wedding celebration prepared by Arceus for Zeraora, a unique and grand banquet in the world.
The starlight filling the sky could be seen even in Wano Country. Many people, captivated by this strange beauty, were entranced.
Especially the female members within the Beasts Pirates, the pursuit of beauty was human nature. Apart from Arceus, there were few who could achieve such a feat in the world. Even if they weren’t the protagonists, they couldn’t help but be captivated.
Even some illusion-type Devil Fruits that could imitate similar scenes couldn’t compare to this real dance of light.
Accompanied by the music, the starlight disc rotated upwards, forming the pictures of Zeraora and Setsuna in the sky above Onigashima. At the same time, the Meadow Plate began creating special plants, and paths made of flowers extended to both sides, eventually appearing at the feet of Setsuna and Zeraora.
“Oh!!!!”
The cheers in the venue were deafening as the bride and groom walked towards the center of the venue.
