One Piece: It's always been you

Chapter 86 You Xiaoyou

Back in the Land of Treasures, Yu had nothing to do.

The old lady's epileptic food cravings did not flare up. Adhering to the principle of not having too much contact with the old lady, Katakuri gave the ingredients to the head chef, and the rest was no longer his concern.

When Whole Cake Island invaded, Flampe was imprisoned, and Cellulose couldn't travel all the way to Wheat Island to cause trouble. She wanted to win over the other members of Whole Cake Island to help, but apart from Big Mom, Katakuri was the backbone of the group, and who would dare to provoke their brother's people?

Besides, their sister-in-law Yu and brother Katakuri are a perfect match. In their eyes, Yu is beautiful, has a good memory, and remembers all her brothers and sisters in Whole Cake Island without fail. Moreover, she is skillful and can make desserts, and most importantly, her skills are truly superb!

Furthermore, based on their interactions with Yu in Whole Cake Island, they found him to be very easy to talk to and quite interesting. More importantly, he's always there whenever Katakuri is involved; while the brothers' presence might be a bit conspicuous, the entertainment value of watching the drama unfold is undeniable!

Katakuri, who has always maintained a serious image, has such a doting side! The girls in the Charlotte family should really be thinking about this, but unfortunately, he's their brother, and they can't even dream of having him.

If Katakuri knew what they were thinking, he'd probably be furious. Had he treated his younger siblings badly as their older brother? A bunch of heartless little brats...

In Whole Cake Island, Katakuri is no longer just seen as a perfect man, but also as a good man! And he always appears in pairs with Yu.

Another change in Whole Cake Island is the addition of a "Most Perfect Couple Ranking," which is specifically created for Yu and Katakuri. Only this couple is included in the ranking, so they are the absolute best, and no arguments are accepted.

There's even a dedicated gossip tabloid that updates the daily lives of this perfect couple in real time.

Cracker was a loyal reader of tabloids, and he thoroughly enjoyed reading them.

"Hahaha, Katakuri-nii, today's tabloid is hilarious!" Cracker sat next to Katakuri, laughing so hard he almost fell over, practically waving his legs in the air. "It, hahaha, it says, 'You've been so busy lately, Yu feels sorry for you, hahaha, knowing you like donuts, I make you lots every day.'"

At this point, Cracker wasn't quite amused yet, but the last half of the sentence made him laugh until his stomach hurt: "Because there was too much, it was distributed to the residents of Wheat Island. Hahahaha, at first glance ...

Because he laughed so hard, Cracker choked on his own saliva and started coughing wildly, but then he continued laughing.

Katakuri glanced at it like a complete idiot, then calmly reassured himself.

It's my younger brother, my own!

Not everyone has a good brain!

When Perospero arrived, he only saw Cracker lying on the ground, trembling, his body hunched over. "Katakuri, what happened to him?"

"He has epilepsy."

Three emotionless words left Perospero frozen in place. "Inherited from his mother?" This was the first seizure in so many years; the incubation period was quite long. This child, sigh, not even as old as him, has more illnesses. His mind wasn't very good to begin with, and now he has epilepsy too. What will become of him in the future? Sigh...

“Creek-san, you’ve been reading the tabloids again.” Smoothie glanced at the international tabloids spread out beside her. “You know, Katakuri-san was kicked out by Yu, and you’re still smiling in front of him. You deserve a beating.”

"Hey, you got what you deserved for gloating. You got beaten up now." Perospero found a spot to sit away from Katakuri. "Katakuri was already pitiful enough to be kicked out of his home. You should have comforted him."

Katakuri: What's wrong with you two? Every sentence revolves around him being kicked out of his house...

Cracker: Brother, why didn't you go and fight them? You only attacked me! It's not fair, waaaaaah...

Katakuri sighed, recalling the whole incident. He had a bitter pill to swallow, but he couldn't express it, and he was powerless to do anything about it.

At first, he and You were indeed as described in the tabloids, although there were occasional embellishments and exaggerations, but nothing was really unacceptable. Sometimes he himself was so engrossed in reading them that he even felt his life was perfect, like getting a donut right on time for afternoon tea.

Yu: Your standards are really low...

Yu doesn't like staying indoors all the time and often runs out. Anyway, Celluloid can't find fault with her. As long as she doesn't provoke the old lady, she can do whatever she wants in this world.

Katakuri didn't pay any attention to her and let her play with her brothers and sisters.

So much so that he forgot what he did before going to Xihai—walking the child.

"Master You, these are some new candies that Candy Island has recently made. They taste amazing. Would you like to buy some to try?" said the owner of the Candy Island branch store.

You naturally didn't refuse. After trying a few, she thought they tasted good and asked the shop owner to pack some for her.

The shopkeeper, while wrapping candies, chatted with Yu, "Why haven't we seen Lord Katakuri bringing the little one out lately? We haven't seen the little one in ages."

"Little adult? Who? When did a little adult appear on Wheat Island?" You thought for a moment, and indeed there wasn't one.

The shopkeeper thought Yu was just pretending not to know and not telling him. "Isn't that you and Lord Katakuri's daughter, Yu-chan? She inherited your pink hair and fair skin."

"Lord Katakuri used to take the little one out for a walk every day, but unfortunately the little one was always sleeping, otherwise he would definitely be running around, and the streets would be much more lively." The shopkeeper still finds the little one's profile adorable. "Next time you bring the little one out so we can see him again."

The shopkeeper said a lot, and You mostly understood what he was saying. She finally realized who that little adult was—it was none other than herself who had shrunk!

No wonder she often woke up with Katakuri's shoulder on her shoulder, and it looked like they had just gotten home. Apparently, Katakuri was taking advantage of her, treating her like a daughter.

Good grief, she treats him like her boyfriend, but he wants to be her father!

They were still keeping it from her. Although she didn't object to the fact that the two of them actually had a child, it didn't mean that the child was hers!

"Haha, definitely next time!"

Katakuri was resting at home with his eyes closed, waiting for Yu to return, but he inexplicably felt a chill down his spine. As soon as he heard the door open, he opened his eyes and saw Yu smiling "kindly" in front of him.

To be honest, he was terrified at the time...

“I heard we have a daughter.” Yu stared intently at Katakuri’s expression. “I think… her name is Yu-chan.”

Oh no, I forgot to explain...

"She has fair and delicate skin, and a head of pink hair."

Looking at the person in front of him, Katakuri silently leaned back and carefully swallowed.

"Katakuri, I don't remember having such a daughter?" Yu asked innocently.

"Actually..." He felt it was necessary to stop You before things got any worse, otherwise, based on his understanding, it might get even worse.

"Don't speak yet!" Yu interrupted him. "You've been seeing someone else behind my back, huh?"

Katakuri stood up abruptly. "No! Yu-Yu is you. You shrunk back then, and when I took you out, they mistook you for my daughter. I didn't explain."

"Oh~ I see." Yu seemed to have calmed down and understood Katakuri, as if he was no longer angry. "I treat you like my boyfriend, and you want to be my dad?"
