Chapter 145 Enlightenment
"But what if Master Yamato listens to that Lu Li and really wants to implement some management reforms in Wano Country in the future?"
Black Maria said worriedly, "This will affect the operating income of our Beasts Pirates."
Kaido frowned when he heard this, "Probably not. I don't think that boy is a person who knows much about management. Yamato also knows nothing about these aspects. They shouldn't come up with any strange plans together."
If Yamato has a clear self-understanding and is willing to return to the embrace of his father, then of course she will become the ghost princess of the Beasts Pirates again.
At that time, she will have the power to do something.
In order to cultivate his daughter's abilities, Kaido really didn't want Yamato to do everything, which would discourage Yamato's enthusiasm.
"I hope so."
Maria said, looking at the screen again, ready to continue watching the live broadcast.

"...Tai Shang Laojun brought his green bull back to heaven, and this difficulty is over."
When Lu Li talked about this, he stretched and said, "That's it for today. Yamato, you are really energetic."
After the day's education was completed, Lu Li naturally wanted to give Yamato a reward. As a result, he told Yamato stories and performed physical exercises until nightfall.
Yamato was like a child addicted to listening to stories. He listened to chapter after chapter without getting bored at all, urging Lu Li to keep telling.
Moreover, Yamato dug more mines than Lu Li, and he didn't look tired at all, so Lu Li was impressed by Yamato's high energy.
This is the difference caused by the physical attributes. Yamato has 60 points of physical attributes. Mining in Tudon Prison is just like playing, and you will not be tired at all.
"Ah, let's talk about another chapter."
Yamato said disappointedly, she still wanted to hear the continuation of the story.
Lu Li was helpless when he saw this, so he changed the subject and said, "Yamato, since you like hearing this story very much, why don't I test you to see if you listened carefully."
Yamato was refreshed after hearing this. Although she was not continuing to tell the story, it was still a topic related to the story, and it was not the kind of question that would make her autistic. Of course she was willing to listen, "Excuse me."
A smile appeared on Lu Li's face, "Yamato, I have already talked about it for many chapters, so have you noticed any difference between Sun Dasheng on the way to obtain scriptures and when he was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace?"
Yamato pondered for a moment and then came to the conclusion, "I feel that the Great Sage is not as crazy as before. He has become a lot more humble and no longer does whatever he wants. To be honest, I feel a little aggrieved."
"Haha, I thought so when I was a kid, but maybe this is the price of growing up."
Lu Li smiled and said, "Have you noticed that Sun Dasheng treats monsters differently?"
After Yamato frowned and thought for a while, he asked doubtfully: "Is there any difference?"
"Recall what I just said about the One-Horned Si King, and think about it again."
Lu Li prompted.
Yamato's eyes lit up after thinking for a moment, and he raised his hands and said, "I understand, Ao Niu was not killed by the Great Sage, but some monsters were killed by him."
"Well, then why do you think this is?"
Lu Li followed the good guidance.
Yamato reacted quickly this time, "Because the blue bull has an owner. Its owner is Taishang Laojun, a powerful god."
Lu Li nodded, "To sum up, the monkey will not kill monsters when faced with a background. If you provoke him without a background, he will kill them all."
After Yamato woke up, she suddenly felt a little chill down her spine. She originally thought that what Lu Li told him was an innocent adventure story, but when she thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case. There were actually so many ways to learn about human relationships and sophistication along the way.
Suddenly, she felt that the story was no longer 'pure'.
"So it's very important to come out and mix your background. Guys who have no strength and no background will often die miserably if they are arrogant."
Lu Li looked at Yamato's silence and concluded, then looked at Yamato with a smile, "So, Yamato, why do you think you are still alive despite your mischief on Onigashima and Wano Country?"
Yamato was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Brother Lu, it turns out you are waiting for me here. I knew your problem would not be that simple."
After being bombarded with questions for several days, she now really doubted the accuracy of Kozuki Oden. During the mining process this afternoon, she never called herself Kozuki Oden once.
Why didn't she know the answer to Lu Li's question? Thinking about it carefully, she seems to be unable to defeat the six Lingkong members of the Beasts Pirates, including the big posters, including some real ones.
But she escaped from prison many times and caused havoc on Onigashima. Even when she met the cadres of the Beasts Pirates, she was unyielding. But even though she was defeated, she never died or even suffered any serious injuries.
No matter how you think about it, this is not Oden protecting himself, but those cadres holding back their hands, just like Sun Wukong fighting monsters, because he has a 'background'.
What other background could she have? Is it Kozuki Oden?
Of course it's impossible. No one in the Beast Pirates worships Kozuki Oden except himself, and Kozuki Oden is already dead.
Her background can only be her father, the Four Emperor Kaido.
Because his father was the direct leader of those cadres, the cadres could not kill him even if they faced their own attacks.
"It seems that you are thinking, so I won't say more."
Looking at Yamato's expression, Lu Li knew that Yamato understood what he meant, so he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to take a nap.
During dinner in the evening, he touched Yamato's belly again. He had basically understood what the return of life was about, but he just needed to practice and adapt for two more days.
After he masters this skill, he will work out and eat crazy meals every day in Tudon Prison. I believe his attributes will be improved a lot.
After a while, Yamato came back to his senses. After sitting next to Lu Li, he said, "Brother Lu, I feel very conflicted recently."
"In what direction?"
Lu Li asked knowingly.
Yamato frowned slightly, "I'm wondering whether I am Kozuki Oden, whether Kozuki Oden's behavior is right, and what should I do to be right?"
"It's hard for me to answer such a philosophical question."
Lu Li said, "But I think in the final analysis, the reason why you are confused is because you don't know who you are."
"Yeah, who am I anyway?"
Yamato said blankly.
"Although I would like to tell you directly that you are Yamato, I don't think this is right."
Lu Li's words made Yamato even more confused.
"What do you mean? Brother Lu, didn't you always call me by my real name before?"
Yamato was puzzled.
Lu Li raised his head and glanced at Yamato, "You also know that this is your real name, but what I mean is that it is not your name that determines who you are, nor other people's words and opinions."
"Then what determines who I am? And who decides?"
Yamato asked confused.
Lu Li sat up slightly and looked at Yamato with a solemn expression, "The only one who can decide who you are is yourself. It is your heart that determines who you are."
"my heart……"
Yamato murmured to herself, raising her hand and placing it on her chest, "Will it tell me who I am?"
"Going back to the original question, if you think you are Kozuki Oden, I will not say anything more about this matter, because it is your own decision; if you think you are Yamato, then maybe you have not yet Find the truth."
Lu Li said seriously. He felt that Yamato was about to reach the stage of enlightenment, so he added fuel to the fire.
Yamato seemed very distressed and conflicted. She put her head in her hands, "I should be Oden, but now I feel that some of Oden's behaviors are not right. But if you say that I am Yamato, I also feel that it is not right."
"Why does it feel wrong?"
Lu Li asked.
"Because I think Yamato is Kaido's daughter, the ghost princess of the Beast Pirates, and the evil party that invaded the Wano camp. This is different from the justice I have gradually understood in my heart."
As Yamato spoke, his eyes gradually became clearer, "Yes, so I am not 'Yamato' either."
"So, you still think that liberating Wano and resisting Kaido's tyranny is the right thing to do, right?"
Lu Li asked with a smile.
Yamato nodded firmly, "I have seen the integrity and character of a true samurai. They once regarded me as the hope of the country of Wano, and I do feel that what Kaido did is wrong, and I want to correct it. "
Lu Li nodded and said, "Isn't this good?"
Yamato looked at Lu Li with some confusion, "Brother Lu, don't you object to me? Obviously this can be regarded as inheriting Kozuki Oden's legacy."
"Why should I oppose you?"
Lu Li spread his hands and said, "When did I say that Kozuki Oden's legacy was completely wrong? I also didn't tell you not to liberate Wano Country, right?"
"But...but, what I want to do next will go against the prophecy mentioned in Kozuki Oden's diary, and also violate Kozuki Oden's code of conduct. I will no longer be Kozuki Oden..."
Yamato's face was filled with confusion and pain, "At the same time, because I am against Kaido, I am no longer 'Yamato', so who am I?"
Facing Yamato's question, Lu Li clapped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Yamato, you have found yourself."
Yamato was a little overwhelmed by Lu Li's congratulations. She and Lu Li looked at each other with a little confusion in their eyes, "I... am 'Yamato'?"
"The name is just a code name. When you understand your position and know what you want to do, you have yourself. Whether your name is Kozuki Oden or Yamato, you are just you. I, Lu Li, agree friends.”
Lu Li said with a smile.
Yamato seemed to understand a little bit, but he didn't seem to quite understand, "So...should I call myself Yamato?"
Lu Li nodded, "That's the best thing. At least this is the name your parents gave you, and you will gradually discover in the future that the so-called relationship between father and daughter is not so easy to separate."
He has initially completed the ideological transformation of Yamato. Yamato finally realized that she is not Kozuki Oden, nor is she the ghost princess "Yamato" who used to be in the Beasts Pirates.
Her life has just started at this point. Facing her new life, she will still encounter a lot of confusion and confusion, but at least she has a chance to get on the right track.
At this stage, Yamato is basically a normal person, but the experience of claiming that Oden fought with the Beast Pirates for many years will have some sequelae, and it will take time to slowly smooth it out.
She is like a piece of paper that is half white and half gray, and she needs to gradually draw her life on it.
As for whether this piece of paper will tend to be black or white in the end, it depends on the subsequent development.
"If what Brother Lu said is true... no..."
Yamato shook his head when he said this, "Looking at it logically, most of your reasoning is true. My father has indeed been very indulgent to me over the years. He cared about me in his heart and allowed me to grow up... "
Lu Li didn't interrupt and looked at Yamato, waiting for her conclusion.
After a pause, Yamato's eyes became clear. "Although I feel a little sorry for my father, and some of my actions are too much for a daughter, I don't think my sense of struggle is wrong. I want to correct this country." error."
