Denjiro has been paying close attention to the domestic situation these days, but he has found nothing. On the contrary, Onigashima is making frequent moves, and many people from Kaido's faction are slowly gathering.
Now most of the Beasts members in Wano Country have withdrawn, and Kurozumi Orochi has been in a very bad mood these days. Although he didn't say it, he is really not a person who is willing to hide his thoughts.
It seems that the information brought by the two revolutionary armies does have a certain possibility, and Kaido is really in trouble.
He had already reported this matter to Kozuki Hiyori in advance. At the same time, he felt somewhat uneasy because he could not find out the real movements of the revolutionary army in the country.
I hope His Highness Hiyori can ask in a tactful way. Unfortunately, Hiyori is willing to ask, but not in a roundabout way.
She believed that if she spoke directly, Robin would answer directly. This was a tacit understanding, just like she had never rejected any of Hiyori's questions in the past few days. It was just that there would be some bad teasing afterwards. What a bad woman.
Sure enough, Robin answered this question very frankly.
"Yes, waiting for a person, a signal. You know, Wano Country is too isolated from the outside world. When the time comes, someone will come. Then, we will do what you want to do together."
"What do we want to do?"
"Yeah, like killing Kurozumi Orochi and witnessing Kaido's end. Aren't these what you want to do?"
"real!"
As she blurted out, Hiyori's fists were already clenched, she still couldn't control her emotions.
"I haven't lied to you yet~"
"I'm sorry, I was presumptuous just now."
"No, if you have similar questions, you can ask little sister Hiwa directly. It's okay."
Robin still had that kind, older sister smile.
Log cabin school.
Noah was giving a lecture, and sitting below were Shimotsuki Yasuie and Kozuki Sukiyaki.
Compared with the Kang family's learning progress, Sukiyaki is no different from an illiterate. It can only be said that it is a matter of effort.
Prejudice in people's minds is like a mountain. Sukiyaki is moving, but we don't know when it will move.
He has made great progress in kendo, not everyone can have a great swordsman as a sparring partner. When Sukiyaki was going crazy, Kangjia always walked out with a smile and chatted with Jinbei. He was too curious about what Gakai looked like.
I have never left Wano Country in my life, but I didn’t expect that after being defeated by Kaido, I realized how exciting the outside world is.
The Four Emperors, the Three Admirals, the Navy, the World Government, the Revolutionary Army, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea all made him feel very nervous. The future founding of Wano Country was inevitable, so he had to make more preparations and not rely on others for everything.
After all, there is no savior in this world, Noah said. What a strange person, he never likes to do things in the name of savior.
He said he hated having to save others all the time and preferred that everyone save themselves before he could provide his insignificant little help.
At the same time, he also said some interesting things.
Joy Boy is not a savior, and neither is the Kozuki clan. The national style of Wano Country is too rigid, the son of the general is still the general, the son of the daimyo is still the daimyo, it is normal for such a country to be destroyed by itself in the future.
As he said this, Sukiyaki picked up the knife and attacked again.
"The Kozuki clan may have a historical mission. You are waiting for the legendary person to save the world, but we don't need that. We completely deny this old world. It's useless for you to get angry because we have different positions."
Noah looked at the old man's vigorous energy, still casually fiddling with the sword moves that were coming to kill him, and sighed. It seems that Oden's two-sword style was created by Oden himself, and it seems to have nothing to do with the Kozuki family. His old father's swordsmanship is very accurate, but very ordinary.
I played Sukiyaki until I was tired, then went back to study.
"In this class, we will analyze Kozuki Oden and the significance of the Kozuki clan to Wano Country."
At this topic, Kozuki Sukiyaki suddenly became serious. He thought he would not hear anything good.
Shimotsuki Yasuie sighed. This topic would definitely lead to a fight soon.
On the wooden board, Noah wrote and drew, making a mind map.
"Look, this is how Oden acted after returning to Wano Country. He first attacked the Shogun's Mansion in Flower Capital. This move was actually correct and unexpected. Speed is of the essence, but it was not comprehensive enough.
His strengths lie in his chivalrous spirit and fearlessness, so going straight to the lair might be unexpected, but it is also easy to fall into a trap.
Unfortunately, he did not bring all his men with him at that time, and after staying on the pirate ship for too long, he had forgotten his identity as the legitimate successor to the general.
However, Kurozumi Orochi came to power illegitimately, lost the support of the people, and acted perversely. The early days were a good time to overthrow him.
With his prestige, he can easily lead a large army and summon samurai to fight against Kurozumi Orochi.
The barrier fruit is indeed powerful, but as long as people are alive, they need to eat and drink. If you surround them without killing them, they will fall without attacking. Or you can wait for Kurozumi Chanmaru to run out of energy and capture him easily. This is what a correct general should do.
As the saying goes, the best strategy is to attack the enemy’s plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities. He basically achieved the last two points.”
"Hiss~ This is a classic."
Shimotsuki Yasuie liked the last sentence very much, thinking it was the essence of war, and quickly wrote it down.
Sukiyaki reviewed the situation internally and found that everything Noah said was right, so he just kept a stern face and didn't care about it for the time being.
"I don't quite understand the subsequent deception. Threats, hostages, naked dancing, five years, and then letting people go to sea. This is the biggest puzzle for me.
Logically speaking, we should not be so naive, which led to the loss of public support, a reversal of the enemy's and our own strength, and the first step to the destruction of Wano Country was this incident.
After all, he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and if he loses the hearts of the people, he will know the consequences. May I ask if this is how you teach your children in Wano Country? Or did he learn benevolence and righteousness himself? "
Kozuki Sukiyaki remained silent, his face flushed, he did not understand the meaning of this operation. Moreover, he did not seem to have formally taught Oden anything.
Shimotsuki Yasuie continued to record, He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, I also like this sentence.
"Finally, if the ruler is not discreet, he will lose his ministers; if the ministers are not discreet, they will lose their lives; if the plans are not discreet, harm will occur.
His actions were all within people's expectations, and the intelligence trends were the same. All he had left was to fight bravely.
In the end, whether or not Momonosuke was captured and lost, the result is the same in my opinion. The victory or defeat was decided when we first attacked the Flower Capital. The subsequent ending was just a tragedy. "
Sukiyaki drew his sword halfway and then put it back. He had mixed feelings. He originally thought that a great hero was harmed by a conspiracy, but who would have thought that there were so many reasons behind it.
Shimotsuki Yasuie is...If the ruler is not discreet, he will lose his ministers; if the minister is not discreet, he will lose his body; if the secret is not kept secret, harm will be done. Remember this, it is very well said.
"Then please give us a summary of Kozuki Oden's choice and its consequences. Also, please consider whether it is right to put the safety of the entire country on the shoulders of one person."
The last half of the sentence is the core that Noah has always wanted them to think deeply about.
the next day.
Ok?
He sensed through his seeing and hearing color that someone was running straight towards him.
"Noah, I'm here. It was just as difficult to get here last time. Even someone as optimistic as Roger complained about it..."
The first thing I want to complain about is Pluto Rayleigh, whose style has been a bit off lately.
"You coming here now means..."
"Yes, there are still three days to go to Wano Country. The Moby Dick has arrived."
"It's finally started. This country is too depressing. It's time for us to make a big scene!"
Chapter 295: The Reunion in Wano Country
One night in the Flower City, Xiao Zi sent away a wealthy businessman as usual.
Unlike before, the oiran has been in a very bad temper lately, and is basically trying to drive people away.
In addition to the occasional temper tantrum, he also speaks coldly when he is impatient.
As a result, except for a few wealthy businessmen who did not show up, the rest of the people were more popular. This country has a bit of an incomprehensible attribute...
Because of the long hours of study every night, I don’t get enough sleep and naturally feel irritable.
According to her new acquaintance, sister Robin, lack of sleep will affect development, and it will affect women's secondary development and so on. She even explained some embarrassing truths in a very logical way.
Denjiro and Long would go out to admire the moon every time at this time. The atmosphere between the two taciturn men...
Tonight is another night for study. Denjiro is still staying by Hiyori's side. He is on high alert against the Revolutionary Army. Except for sensitive topics, he will sit in on them. He has also passively learned a lot of outrageous knowledge, which makes him very distressed.
I can't forget it even if I want to, this evil spirit is too deep.
!
Something is wrong! Why are there so many people coming over here from the sound of footsteps? Could it be the Black Charcoal Snake?
Denjiro sat nearby, pretending to be the sleepyhead who always kept his eyes closed.
In fact, his right hand was already attached to his weapon, and it was hard for the large group of people at this time not to think too much.
brush.
The door was pushed open. A group of people stood at the door and walked in one after another.
In the eyes of Hiyori and Denjiro, the people who came this time were still led by Robin and Ryu.
But Robin was talking to the strange man next to him. There was also a strange old man wearing a Tengu mask who came in and looked at Hiyori with strange eyes.
The person who followed was an acquaintance? It was the Daimyo Shimotsuki Yasuie of Hakumai and Uncle Rayleigh, whom Hiyori still remembered!
Kozuki Hiyori did not have a very deep impression of Shimotsuki Yasuie, but instead felt a sense of intimacy with Rayleigh as if he were a family member.
She was born on Whitebeard's ship, but soon followed Kozuki Oden to Roger's pirate ship.
After all, children are able to remember things later, so Rayleigh, Jabba and others are the ones that Hiwa Kozuki really remembers when he was a child.
Uncle Rayleigh. Hiyori Kozuki burst into tears before she even finished her words.
"Oh, Hiyori has grown into a big girl. Hahahaha, at that time, you and Momonosuke were the youngest crew members on the ship. I still remember that you often knocked down Momonosuke with a flying kick. We all thought that you would become a big pirate in the future."
Denjiro was a little wary of Rayleigh after hearing this. How could Wano Country's future be a pirate? Now she was the only one left in the Kozuki clan.
Lei Li also feels very sentimental about the past. He is old now and loves to reminisce.
Neither he nor Xia Qi has any children, so his love for children is genuine.
When he first went to Marijoa, he went to help Noah and the others, and it was also because Xia Qi hoped that he could help the poor little girl Robin.
Now seeing his old friend's daughter alone and helpless here, his murderous intent towards Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi grew stronger.
Later, there was a standard family recognition meeting. Rayleigh and Hiyori Kozuki were talking on the side, mainly Hiyori was talking and Rayleigh was listening.
After listening to it, Rayleigh learned from a child about what happened to Kozuki Oden after he returned to Japan, and the pain of losing his father. The more he listened, the more heartbroken he became.
Watching the interaction between Hiyori Kozuki and Rayleigh, Kozuki Sukiyaki's face hidden under the mask is very complicated.
He always felt that he had no face to meet Oden's descendants. It was in his hands that the country was taken away. It caused his granddaughter to live such a miserable life. Therefore, he did not dare to go forward and recognize them directly.
On the other side, Kangjia also recognized Denjiro. When Denjiro and his gang were still gangsters, they had been to Baiwu. When they were stealing money, they ran into Shimotsuki Kangjia, who was still the daimyo of Baiwu at that time.
Under the guidance of Kangjia, they truly embarked on the path of samurai. It is said that the daimyo of the other five districts had rebelled against Kaido's rule.
They formed a resistance army together, but were eventually massacred. He was heartbroken at the time.
Denjiro was very happy to see Kangjia still alive, and he also talked about why he became a subordinate of Orochi and how he was looking for an opportunity for revenge.
There were quite a few people here, so he shouldn't have said this. But surrounded by this group of experts, no one could send out a signal.
Just the dragon that gave him a great sense of oppression was enough to control the entire situation. Later, Noah and Rayleigh, in his perception, had a similar feeling to Kaido. Just a slight hint of their aura could make him feel like the world was turned upside down.
I feel heavy-hearted. There are too many powerful people in the outside world. It seems that Kaido is nothing in the outer sea. Is it really necessary to establish Wano Country... If there are so many powerful people, wouldn't it be a dead end to establish a country?
Kaido had a black question mark face... I am also a well-known Four Emperors in the open sea, okay? There are not many people in the sea who dare to say that they are more powerful than me.
This created a wonderful misunderstanding. It was really rare for masters of this level to gather together and get along well with each other.
Generally, when strong men meet, it should be like Red Hair meeting White Beard. They first use their domineering style to cleanse the ground, chat for a few words, and then use one or two moves to create a sky-splitting attack or something like that.
And referring to the style of the aunt's tea party, it is normal to see undercurrents, conspiracies, and calculations by the strong in private.
In Denjiro's eyes, among this group of people, only the one wearing the Tengu mask was a little strange. He didn't dare to show his true face, so there must be something hidden.
But since Lord Kang and the Revolutionary Army brought him here, and his clothing and other details all showed that he was from Wano Country, it meant that there was still a certain degree of trust.
Back then, he had always suspected that there was a traitor among the Nine Red Scabbards, otherwise Kurozumi Orochi would not have known their route and set up an encirclement. This was something that always bothered him.
This is one of the reasons why he was undercover, but unfortunately Kurozumi Orochi never revealed any flaws in this matter.
At this time, there were no other retainers of Oden here, so he said it with great confidence.
I hope to get some answers from the Kang family. After all, they all learned the way of the warriors together in the Kang family.
"Traitor~ I don't understand this and I can't tell."
Although all nine of them studied under him back then, and could be said to know a lot about the Red Scabbards, it could also be said that none of them knew them deeply enough.
In his eyes, they are all good children who can admit their mistakes and correct them. If there really is a traitor, it will hurt his heart.
