The destination of Rego-go and Yuyuko's trip to Wano Country, Kyuri-go, is actually the farthest away.
It happened to be across from Linghou, and they were both poor places.
However, although it is a poor place, Jiuli is also a special place. The complex terrain and "simple folk customs" coupled with the management of Kozuki Oden, form a river-like governance with other five townships and exclude people who are not from the Kozuki system, so The Flower City's control over Guri has never been perfect. Although it has achieved force suppression with the help of Kaido's power, it can suppress people, but it cannot suppress the secret resistance.
"According to that guy's personality, he should only appear in three places. But don't worry, the goal now is to go to the Flower Capital to have a good meal."
After passing the torii gate that was 20 to 30 meters high, Yuyuko and others entered the Flower City.
Freya was very excited when she saw the torii, jumping up and down happily.
"Freya, do you know this?"
Freya nodded, "Sister said, you're almost home when you see this."
Youyouzi was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Does home refer to the shrine?"
"Of course, isn't the shrine at the foot of Fujiyama?"
A shrine at the foot of the mountain? Youyouzi looked away, but the distance was too far to see clearly. However, the landform of Wano should not have changed within a certain period of time, so it is worth pondering that the shrine was built at the foot of Fujiyama.
Fujiyama is the highest mountain in Wano. It is almost impossible to climb and its height reaches into the sky. You must know that Wano Country is originally located on a huge mountain nearly two thousand meters high, and Fujiyama is still nearly two thousand meters high above the mountain.
In the legend of Wano Country, the top of the mountain is connected to Takamagahara, the residence of the gods. Only those who are recognized by the gods can be picked up to live in the Kingdom of God.
But this is a legend after all.
Times have changed, and the people of Wano have long been a little numb to the gods. They have never seen them. With the rise of the Samurai Way, there are only a few priests and onmyojis who can maintain the relationship between gods and ghosts.
Only these huge torii gates remain, showing that Wano Country may have been a place favored by gods.
"What's wrong, Master?"
Sensing the change in Yuyuko's mood, Ikari asked in a low voice with concern.
Yuyuko "was just thinking about what kind of gods would need such a big door."
Ikari:...?
Ikari froze for a few seconds. "Perhaps, the gods belong to the giant race."
Youyouzi was stunned.
Ikari's statement is not impossible. The three ancient weapons are Uranus, Poseidon, and Pluto. The names of Uranus and Poseidon originate from Greek mythology. The former is a Titan and the latter is the son of a Titan. Both of them have the meaning of giants. Pluto is actually an adaptation of Roman mythology from Greek mythology. It actually refers to Hades, the eldest son of Uranus, so he is also essentially a giant.
In the world of One Piece, Pluto is a huge battleship, symbolizing war and death. Poseidon is the king of giant sea kings and is positioned as the controller of the ocean. Then maybe we can speculate about the final king.
It represents the sky and power, and must be linked to hugeness. At the same time there was a huge war...
Does this hugeness refer to the scope of the war, or the size of the main body of the war?
To be honest, Yuyuko prefers the latter. Or both coexist.
Even if the war spreads all over the world, the main subjects of the war are also huge beings.
Youyouzi couldn't help but think of the Elephant Master. It couldn't be Pluto...
Yuyuko looked at the huge torii gate and fell into deep thought. It seems that we must visit Elbaf, the hometown of giants.
At the same time, when you connected everything with this conjecture, Youyouzi had a feeling.
I will definitely gain something unexpected in Elbaf.
"It's an interesting guess, but let's end this topic first. Now we have to go to the Flower Capital for a nice stroll."
…
The Capital of Flowers is the capital of Wano, the economic and political center of Wano, and has always been the core area of Wano. After the rule of Heitan Orochi, he brought the wealth of other Gogos and the wealth split with Kaido here, so the prosperity here has become a bit ridiculous.
Also outrageous is class.
Because of the prosperity of the Flower City and Kuotan Orochi's acquiescence, Wano's class stratification is almost overwhelming. Those who can enter the Flower City are either Kuotan's supporters or have spent a lot of money. For the related households and civilians who want to live in the Flower City, they can only choose to seek refuge with those who have some energy in the Flower City.
Of course, this is a way to stably enter the Flower City. In addition, you can also spend a little money to enter during important festivals every year. Normally, you can only pay a large amount of entry fees directly in exchange for a temporary pass certificate.
Of course, this is only in exchange for a pass to carry out activities in the lower city area of the Flower Capital. In the upper city area... it can only be for the powerful.
Money is not a problem that is difficult to solve for Youyouzi, but the way these guys behave makes Youyouzi feel a little unhappy. Not only that, but those guys don’t know where to put their eyes.
But after all, they are bullies who are afraid of the strong. Under the threat of Youyouzi's sword and overlord look, the two cowards softened in an instant.
Purchasing food and finding a place to stay were left to Reiju and Keya, while Yuyuko went directly to find the shrine with Freya on her back.
"Freya, which direction is the shrine?"
Freya calibrated her direction and pointed straight at the palace. "It should be around that big house. There are a lot of changes. Freya can't be sure."
Yuyuko rubbed Freya's head and said with a smile, "It's okay, it doesn't matter even if I can't find it."
It has been too long, and the historical text was also born in the country of Wano. The ancient characters and the technology of carving ancient characters have been inherited by the Kozuki family. Perhaps the country of Wano suffered a huge change during the original war, otherwise How could Shikami Nao let Freya leave?
After finding a deserted place, Yuyuko flew there with Freya.
"Is that there?" Youyouzi pointed to the largest building below.
Freya nodded and shook her head.
"It should be there, but..." Freya felt sad for a moment.
Although she was just a stupid kitten, she gradually understood her situation after spending so much time together. It seems that I have been gone for a long time.
Looking at Freya's appearance, Yuyuko couldn't bear it, but she didn't know what to say.
The location may be there, but the house is not the same house it once was.
At this moment, the trembling of the shamisen and the light singing sounded.
…
In the palace of Zefeng, the current leader of Wano Country, Heitan Orochi, was sitting comfortably on his main seat, raising his head and drinking, then laughing happily.
"Guhehehe, this is the first time I've seen Kaido like that. So comfortable, so damn comfortable!"
Some time ago, Kaido ran back with a bunch of subordinates, and the fleet was also in tatters. He asked Kaido about the situation, but was given the rare chance of being shunned by Kaido.
"If that guy hadn't suffered a big loss, he would never have treated me like that. I just didn't expect that even a monster like him would suffer a defeat. It's so comfortable, so refreshing!"
He didn't like taking care of Wano Orochi, but he was greedy for money. Although Kaido, who often shared money from him, was his partner, Kaido also shared a lot of money. This made him unhappy with Kaido for a long time. . However, the stability of the regime requires Kaido's assistance. If he relies solely on his own power, it will be difficult to completely suppress Wano.
Although he is greedy for money, lustful, arrogant and loves pleasure, he is not a brainless person. He could see very clearly that Kaido was not his own person. Otherwise, he would not have formed his own bodyguards and restricted Kaido from entering and exiting the Flower Capital at will.
They are partners, but they are also fearful.
In order to check and balance Kaido, he had recruited countless powerful samurai to form a team, and even had the powerful Kuangshirou as his personal guard, so he was slightly relieved.
Naturally, he was happy to see Kaido come back in embarrassment after suffering a loss outside. No, not long after the limelight passed, they happily held a banquet to celebrate.
Not only that, Heitan Orochi also invited Xiao Zi, who has just become the leader of Flower Street, to come to the banquet.
When he thought of the little purple-black charcoal snake, his eyes couldn't help but become clear, and he couldn't help but look to the side not far away.
Wearing a gorgeous kimono, just sitting there and playing quietly is a pleasure to watch. Her clear eyes are soft and full of innocence. Even though she was born in Yanliuhua Street, she still has a unique ladylike temperament.
She is like a pure white lily standing proudly among the fallen flowers and willows, pure and noble, with a charming look and a smile that dispels all evil spirits.
This fascinated him. At the same time, it also made him secretly afraid to show his true nature in front of Xiao Zi. Although this invitation was a bit nonsensical, he was already quite restrained compared to before.
During this period of time, many Orochi Generals' great achievements became popular among the public, and many outsiders came to the Flower City, bringing with them many Orochi's achievements to praise.
He didn't want to use force to get her, he wanted to show off his tallness and make her fall in love with him.
It's not the kind of love that is imaginary and submissive, but the love that comes from the heart and treats each other sincerely.
Orochi's gaze was noticed by Xiao Zi, who pursed her lips and smiled in return as they looked at each other, and then continued to focus on her shamisen.
The sound of music filled his ears, and Orochi suddenly felt that the flattery of his subordinates below him had become boring, and his heart was completely immersed in the melody of the shamisen strings.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly broke in from outside the door.
Kuangshiro, who had been waiting beside the black charcoal snake, suddenly woke up from his slumber. He drew his sword and directly blocked the black shadow. However, the black shadow was so powerful and full that Kuangshiro could not completely stop it, so he used his hand. With the change of force, the black shadow was guided to the side by the sword blade.
There was a roar and a burst of smoke filled the hall.
However, Kuangshilang looked around but did not find the attacker. Faced with such an attack, he would not rush out to pursue him. After all, he was a die-hard loyal to Orochi, and guarding the safety of Black Carbon Orochi was his main task.
A group of subordinates who were drinking and enjoying themselves suddenly woke up. The accompanying guards quickly alerted them, and some of them went out to investigate.
At this moment, a female voice sounded in the hall.
"Don't panic, I just came here to ask some questions. Besides, there is no need to go to such trouble to kill him."
Everyone followed the sound and saw that when the smoke dissipated, a huge folding fan was erected. The body of the fan was metallic, and there was a scene of cherry blossoms falling on the open fan. The female voice came from behind this fan.
"That's... the weapon of Senbon Sakura, the strongest female ninja ever... Black Sakura!"
After fanning the fan, Youyouzi was slightly startled.
Although I had known for a long time that Baihua Piaoling was a weapon from the Kingdom of Wano, I didn't expect it to be quite famous.
"So it's called Black Cherry? That's a bad name, but I still think the name I gave it is more pleasant. Remember, it's called Baihua Piaoling."
As soon as he finished speaking, several samurai accompanying him approached with their swords.
"I told you, don't mess around, I'm just here to ask some questions."
Youyouzi waved his hand, and a strong gust of wind rose out of thin air, making it difficult for the attackers to move even an inch, and the food on the tables in the hall was also blown to the ground. After only a moment of stalemate, the attackers with knives were blown away and knocked out of the hall. They rolled several times on the ground in the distance before stabbing their weapons into the ground. Some officials who were in poor health suffered miserably and fell directly outside and broke their statues.
The black charcoal snake was fine. Not only was Kuangshilang blocking him, but the wind blowing towards him was not strong either.
Then the strong wind suddenly stopped and the female voice sounded again.
"If it's Kaido here, I'd still have some concerns, but if it's just you...hehe, it's better to answer my questions honestly."
The black charcoal snake had a hidden face, and a few beads of cold sweat ran down his forehead. His expression was fearful, ruthless, and mostly angry, but he really needed to soften up in this situation.
'We must let Kaido deal with this woman afterwards! Doesn’t that bastard Kaido like strong men the most? '
But at this moment...
"What do you want to know?" The black charcoal snake's face was really as black as charcoal now, and he was gnashing his teeth to squeeze out this question.
Youyouzi didn't panic and said calmly, "It's not a big problem. I just want to ask you when this palace was built."
Black Carbon Orochi was slightly surprised. He thought it was an important question, but it turned out to be such an unclear question. This kind of problem...if you find a family that has been around for a long time, you will know it!
"Seven years ago, I just renovated this place."
After saying it again, Black Carbon Orochi seemed to understand the problem behind this question.
This woman is looking for something.
"What's wrong? Are you looking for something?"
"Oh, you guessed it...Forget it, it's not surprising." "Yes, I am indeed looking for something. That thing should be nearby, but it is a shrine. Do you know?"
"The shrine..." Black Carbon Orochi chuckled, "So that's why you came here. Yes, I did find a shrine when I was rebuilding this place. The huge square stone inside... No, the historical text, that's it. It’s what you’re looking for.”
"Forehead……"
Yuyuko was really surprised at this time. Originally she just wanted to find the shrine, but unexpectedly a historical text popped up.
This historical text is an endless chat with my mother, right? !
"Where is the shrine?"
"I have converted that shabby little shrine into a separate courtyard, and the thing you are looking for is now in Kaido's hands!" As he said that, the black charcoal snake showed a happy smile.
Things have been successfully transferred to Kaido!
"That's it~" Youyouzi sighed. "I understand. After asking the questions, it's time for me to leave."
"etc!"
Yuyouzi was about to activate her ability to leave but was stopped by the black charcoal snake.
"busy?"
"Where is Xiao Zi?"
Kuangshilang also cooperated and drew his sword and leaned against the big snake, ready to attack at any time. But there seemed to be a trace of anxiety in the slits of his squinted eyes.
Youyouzi chuckled.
"It's nothing. You have a bad reputation. I'll take this girl away to prevent you from ruining her."
After saying that, the strong wind rippled in the hall, and when the strong wind dissipated, there was no one left anywhere.
"Damn it, my little Zi!!!!" The black charcoal snake roared in anger. He turned around and looked at the officials stumbling behind him.
"Look, go and find someone. That woman probably won't take Xiao Zi too far. Find her back for me!"
Then the black charcoal snake looked at Kuangshilang next to him, "Kangshilang, your state seems to be a little wrong."
Kuangshilang nodded, "General, I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well."
The black charcoal snake breathed out, "It's okay. Fortunately, I have you."
Kuangshilang silently stood up, but glanced outside.
Be sure to get into trouble! Princess!
