Chapter 141

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, two minks who came to Wano Country a long time ago. It turned out that there they met a great samurai named Kozuki Oden. It was his clan who owned the symbol that was next to the poneglyph-pointer in the Whale Tree. The story of these two was pretty exciting. They became Oden's vassals and his faithful samurai. They followed him everywhere and never left. But one day they had to stay in Vano, where they were waiting for their master. Auden went with Roger to look for Raftel. So they could not visit the last adventure of the Pirate King.

At one time, they swam with Whitebeard, and later ended up in Roger's team, along with their leader Oden. They spoke of him with such reverence and respect that even I wanted to meet this great samurai. But this was not destined to happen ... It turned out that he had died a long time ago. He was killed by Kaido, who seized power in Wano.

The resentment and sadness of these two was indescribable. This was one of the reasons for their enmity ...

Sargon arrived a little later and was greeted as a hero. On this day, I saw the old man drunk for the first time.

During this booze, I met another vassal of the Kozuki family. It was a strange guy named Raizo. After expelling Jack from Zou, he was released, but he still did not appear. But when he found out about us, he appeared ... This ninja was, of course, strange, you can't say anything. Although his techniques were entertaining.

As for the Straw Hats, it was very simple. It turned out that after Dressrosa they were caught in a storm and accidentally arrived here. Luffy, of course, was not upset at all and was only happy about new adventures. He also became many times stronger, I think he is somewhere almost at the same level as in the canon, during the Dressrosa Arc. Reilly did a good job. Speaking of him ... The Dark King trained these guys continuously for almost two years, and then he just left. So they realized that it was time to sail to the New World.

The way Luffy thanked me for saving his brother was also memorable. He swore that no matter what I asked him, he would definitely do it. If I am in danger, he will immediately go to the rescue. I smiled and accepted his promise, otherwise he would simply not have lagged behind me. Usually he acts like a fool, but in such situations he is too serious. Perhaps for this, I respect this guy.

After almost everyone had gone to bed, Reizo, Inuarashi, Nekomamushi, myself, Sargon, Zoro, and Robin went to the Whale Tree. Inuarashi wanted to talk to me about something. I didn't mind, so I called the guys, and we'll decipher this thing at the same time. Sailing soon, we cannot sit here long.

Arriving at the poneglyph, Robin immediately perked up and set to work.

The Minks were surprised and Inuarashi asked in amazement:

- Can she read them ?!

I nodded.

- Maybe. Perhaps she is one of the last in the world who is capable of this.

Inuarashi let out a long breath.

- Huu, I see, so you can hear him, and she read ... Surprisingly, you almost collected everything you need.

I was surprised:

- Necessary? So poneglyphs aren't everything?

Nekomamushi chuckled.

- Do you really want to know about it?

I thought about it, then smiled and shook my head.

- No, I'll figure it out myself.

Inuarashi, who was still silent, seriously asked:

- You're going to look for them all?

I nodded and the mink continued, "So you have to go to Wano Country and meet Kaido. Are you sure you're ready?

I shook my head.

"Not yet, I need to get Sanji back, and after dealing with Linlin, she needs to figure out who should be touched and who shouldn't.

Zoro grinned, and Raizo's minks fell silent. Looking at me strangely, Inuarashi asked:

- Are you sure? Yonko is not some weakling, even Oden-sama couldn't ...

I turned around and laughed:

- Ha-ha, don't worry, I can run away too.

After a day, we finally finished all our business on the island and sailed away. The Straw Hats stayed for a while longer, and we couldn't hesitate. Sanji is out there somewhere, and I remember what would happen to Jerma if the marriage was concluded. So after saying goodbye, we set off and swam. But I had absolutely no idea where to sail ...

***

A few days before the Blood Star crew arrived at Zou.

The whole world was shocked by amazing news. Of course, in the New World, this was not something special, many were ready for this. But for ordinary people who knew the horror of pirates, this news was akin to a nightmare. For the Marines who had not recovered from Whitebeard's death, the news was even worse. For the pirates plotting, it was also a signal to stop and hide.

Rookie Pirate, one of the Worst Generation. Who killed the Admiral, and already known to have killed Jack's "Drought". Captain infamous for the Blood Star Pirates. James D. More, better known as the Sea Devil. Was announced as the new Yonko. Finally, the New Emperor appeared.

Wano Country, Onigashima.

In a dark room with many bodies scattered about. There was a huge pirate with a remarkable tattoo on his left arm and two long horns. He was holding a bottle of sake in one hand and a crumpled newspaper in the other.

As soon as he read what was written, all his subordinates immediately lost consciousness. A terrible surge of royal will, knocked out hundreds of pirates.

Kaido was angry, and he instantly sobered up from the news he read. Rage gripped him, and he was ready to breathe fire.

His subordinate is one of the strongest people in the team. He was killed by a pirate who stabbed him twice in succession. First, he stripped him of Doflamingo and artificial devil fruits. With this, the great army of the gifted ended its growth. That was already enough to bury the bastard alive. But he killed Jack ... This is the worst thing that happened to Kaido, ever since Yonko. Jack was one of his earliest followers and one of the strongest. Losing him was comparable to losing an arm. Until that day, Kaido did not attach any importance to the Sea Devil at all and treated him like another upstart. But now, his hatred and rage were at their highest ...

- LITTLE WORM! WHEN I FIND YOU DON'T EVEN HOPE TO SURVIVE! I WILL SLOWLY RIP THE SKIN FROM YOUR LOVE, AND AFTER, I WILL MAKE YOU EAT EVERYTHING! YOU WILL BEHOLD ME ABOUT DEATH, BUT EVEN DO NOT COUNT ON IT! - from his scream, the whole Onigashama trembled. Black clouds over the island thickened more and more and formed a funnel.

After taking a few sips of sake, Kaido calmed down a bit.

- Sea Devil, huh? Do you think that once you have become a Yonko, you are equal to Me ?! I will show you what Yonko is and what the True Devil is!
