Kill them all

Heigoro left the Flower Capital with his wife.

"Isn't this too hasty?"

His wife had never quite understood. Even with all the trust, the sudden decision to leave their home, where they had lived for many years, was bewildering.

"Trust me, it's my intuition," Heigoro said.

He thought of Oden's demeanor back then and felt uncomfortable.

Oden seemed carefree, but in reality, it was because he rarely suffered losses. He was able to hunt tigers and bears at a young age and became famous in the criminal underworld of Wano as he grew older. He seemed to have gone through a lot, but everything had always been smooth sailing for him.

Now, after suffering such a huge loss at Kin'emon's hands, he even nearly died at his hands. Perhaps he couldn't handle such a blow.

Heigoro knew that many people undergo changes in personality after being on the brink of death. He was worried that Oden was one of them because he had never suffered such a big loss before. Heigoro and Kin'emon clashed because Oden was so determined to retaliate, wanting to reclaim his dignity by killing Kin'emon.

But he knew that both Himura Kin'emon and his master, Hitetsu Kurojuro, were not to be trifled with. It would take all the military strength of Wano to deal with the two of them!

"Um... are Himura and Hitetsu really that powerful?" his wife couldn't help but sigh. "I know you value loyalty, but even if Oden is our friend and was almost killed, what's wrong with helping him? Do we have to give up everything we had before for the sake of two people we might not see for years?"

"Loyalty is just one aspect. The important thing is that they won't go down without a fight," Heigoro said immediately. "You don't understand them, which is why you say that, but I know Hitetsu's strength is unfathomable. I've seen him in action before, and in that moment, I even thought he was the legendary Sword God Ryuma of Wano."

Sword God Ryuma...

He was a legendary swordsman in Wano's folklore who could slay dragons in the sky and once single-handedly repelled the World Government. His swordsmanship reached the pinnacle, and the people of Wano worshipped him as a god of the sword.

Now, Heigoro compared Hitetsu to Ryuma, showing his admiration for him.

His wife was shocked. After a moment of thought, she asked, "Where are we going now?"

Heigoro had already chosen the location. They were heading north towards the northern region of Wano, which was the town of Kibi in the six regions of Wano.

After telling his wife about this place, she couldn't help but say, "But isn't that the most desolate place in Wano?"

"It's precisely because it's desolate that it's safe. Let's go to Kibi now and see how the situation in Wano develops," Heigoro said.

He wasn't afraid and cowardly. Instead, he wanted to observe the situation first. He had reached this point not just by recklessness alone.

They were already walking briskly as they talked. However, at this moment, a woman's figure suddenly appeared in front of them. She had blue hair and was wearing a light blue jacket, with her lower body showing white legs.

It was...

Quite inappropriate!

At this moment, the woman leaned against a tree, arms crossed, looking at the two of them with playful eyes, smiling lightly as she asked, "How do you plan to develop?"

?!

Heigoro's eyes narrowed, and he reached out to protect his wife behind him, his other hand resting on the hilt of his sword.

"Who are you?" Heigoro looked at An coldly. At this moment, he remembered seeing this woman in the Flower Capital before, although it was just a brief glance. But An's style of dress was indeed not in line with Wano's, so Heigoro remembered her deeply.

She was in the Flower Capital before, and now she appeared in front of him, which could only mean that she came for him!

"Don't be so nervous," An said calmly. "I'm here to help you."

Shortly after seeing Trafalgar Law, An found Heigoro. It was almost at the limit of her Observation Haki, which was ten kilometers away.

To catch up with this ten kilometers, she had to run with all her might to appear in front of Heigoro.

Seeing Heigoro's cautious expression, she inserted her hands into her pockets and stood up straight, facing the two of them.

"As you thought, I am not from Wano. I came to this country to investigate some things, and those things may lead to the destruction of this country."

"The destruction of this country?" Heigoro couldn't help but laugh. "Wano has never welcomed outsiders. Do you think I'll believe your words?"

"You've already believed," An tutted, looking at Heigoro with scrutinizing eyes.

"Because you have already sensed the danger in advance. Otherwise, why would you risk your life to leave the Flower Capital? And why did samurais and ninjas surround your residence shortly after you left?"

Heigoro's heart sank. He hadn't expected to be right. The Kozuki Family actually sent people to surround his house.

An was right. He did sense the danger in advance.

But he looked at An with some suspicion. How did this woman know so clearly?

"I said, there is a disaster in Wano, a disaster that will not only destroy Wano but also affect the entire world. Do you think I care about your small country of Wano? An coldly sneered. "Your country is self-contained, so let it perish on its own. Even if everyone dies, it has nothing to do with me."

Her gaze was cold, making Heigoro shiver.

"But I won't let your death be a sacrifice for the demons. That's all there is to it. You better not think too highly of yourselves."

An had to take a tough stance to make Heigoro cooperate with her quickly, and what she said was not a lie.

Although she didn't think so, if she didn't gain much, the World Government would forcibly dispatch a large number of troops to carry out an island-destroying operation against Wano!

Don't think that Wano is invincible just because it occupies a strategic location. The reason why the World Government failed in Wano before was simply because they didn't need to expend too much military force for such a country. But now that it involves a demon lord, no sacrifice is too great!

Moreover, now that the World Government has a black religious organization under its control, with just one powerful navy, and with the addition of the black religious organization...

Wano is absolutely unable to resist!

By then, the World Government would choose to kill all the people of Wano!

Let alone Wano being a non-allied country of the World Government, even if there was another Jartzburg Incident, they would definitely not hesitate to take action.

If no clues were found, then...

Kill them all!
