Arceus's Pirate Journey

"I don't know. Mr. Quinn only said that he found Kozuki Momonosuke, but he didn't go into details about other things. He should be on Ghost Island."

Quinn's contact with the general was not a report, but a notification.

If the person reporting is Kaido or Arceus, he can accurately tell the time to the second and appear exactly where he needs to appear.

It was different for Mitsuki and Hiwa. Quinn just said something casually when he notified Hotai to search.

"Has it been 20 years since Momonosuke Kozuki? Time flies so fast, Kawamatsu."

"Hiyori-sama, I'm here."

"Go and tell Denjiro and Kikunoshi that my dear brother has arrived, or is back. In short, let them go to Onigashima together to meet this father's son."

Saying this, Hiyori Kozuki walked out first, seeming to be very anxious about this matter.

Twenty years, this long period of time caused her inner suffering, and her attitude towards many things also changed.

The good news is that she is very free in Wano Country. Apart from the fact that the scope of her real power is only within the palace, she also has many face-saving projects outside, and no one will stop her wherever she goes.

He regularly traveled abroad and saw more things than previous shoguns. Although Kozuki Oden saw more, he never officially succeeded him as a shogun, so he was not included in the list.

Under the order of Kozuki Hiyori, the palace of the Flower City became busy again, not because Kozuki Hiyori was going out, but because of the name Kozuki Momonosuke.

Many of the waiters in the palace are in their thirties or forties, and many of them are branches of the Heitan family, so they have more profound memories of those events back then.

"Did you hear that? The prophecy that Madam left behind at the time was not false. Kozuki Momonosuke and Oden's retainers appeared again."

"Don't talk nonsense, where did you hear this news?"

"The general's maid, I heard her say that the general spread the news on purpose."

"Forget it, forget it, what does it have to do with us? It doesn't matter who becomes the general? Life is pretty good now."

Similar discussions occurred in every corner of the palace, but the attitudes were similar. No one wanted to respond to Momonosuke and his party.

The country of Wano in the original timeline has become very dilapidated at this time due to the persecution of the Black Carbon Orochi and the oppression of Kaido. There is peace and prosperity in the Flower Capital, and the villages outside are starved to death.

The resisters were afraid of force and did not dare to take action. After discovering Momonosuke, the remaining supporters of the Kozuki family worked together to secretly send these people out of Wano.

It's different now. Kaido doesn't care. As long as Wano can provide weapons, train soldiers, and provide special products for the beasts and fruits, he doesn't care whether this place is good or bad.

Arceus has its own rules, and Pokémon has integrated into the Kingdom of Wano. Under the closed-loop economy, everything in the Kingdom of Wano is closely related to the beasts. Even a blind man can feel all this from the changes in his life.

Moreover, the scope of closed-loop economic radiation is not only the special commodities of beasts.

Medical care, public opinion, religion, salt and iron, everything from birth, old age, sickness and death to every plant and tree are inseparable from all kinds of animals.

People of the older generation still remember these things. People born in these 20 years have no idea who the so-called Momonosuke is. They just feel that someone is hindering their lives.

The entire Jiuli district was closed down and a large-scale search began, which affected the pace of life of many people.

Many people who were blocked on both sides of the blockade had started to curse, but the outside world did not know who made such a big noise, so they did not name them.

When Guri launched a large-scale search, Denjiro and Kikunochei had also received the message from Kawamatsu.

"Hesong, what did you say?!"

"Xiaosheng said that Lord Momonosuke has appeared and been captured. Lord Hiyori wants to take us to see him."

There was a bit of helplessness in Kawamatsu's tone. They were the ones who remembered the past 20 years the most, but no one mentioned it. They just hoped that Momonosuke could leave here smoothly.

They have witnessed the development of Wano and seen the changes in Wano. Now if they want to drive Kaido away, they are not making enemies of the beasts. They must first see if the ordinary citizens of Wano are willing to accept this.

.

Originally, Momonosuke had a group of die-hard loyalists, but those people had carried out mysterious operations a few years ago and actually wanted to assassinate Hiyori Kozuki. Not only did they get themselves involved, but they also pushed Hiyori Kozuki.

Even Kawamatsu didn't know what Hiyori would do after meeting Momonosuke.

It would be best for Momonosuke to escape. Everyone has not seen each other since then. As a result, some of them are extremely unhappy. If Kawamatsu's guess is correct, the signal flare just now is related to this matter.

From the time he saw the strange flare to the time he received the news that Momonosuke had been captured, it took less than half an hour.

"Denjiro, let me remind you, calm down first. You don't have the ability to take away Momonosuke-sama. Even if you add me and Akiku, the three of us can't get out of Onigashima, let alone."

Kawamatsu didn't finish what he said. The current situation was a little complicated. He didn't know what the attitude of Kikunochei was, but Kawamatsu had a very tangled problem.

If the beasts want to execute Momonosuke, they can fight for it and be loyal as retainers.

But in the current situation, the beasts may not care, but Hiyori may not.

If Hiyori wanted to kill Momonosuke, then it would be a question of who they should help.

They are all the children of Oden, no matter what they do, they will be a big trouble.

Denjiro was originally a thoughtful person, but at this time he was so distracted that he didn't even notice the meaning of Kawamatsu's words and just walked out first.

At the same time, a little above Denjiro and Kawamatsu.

"Ah, your general is very resentful."

On the roof of the palace, Drake was hanging upside down from the eaves, communicating with Kiku no Cheng on the next floor. Originally, the roof was Jhin's privilege, but after Jhin didn't care much about things here, Drake inherited it.

Partial permissions.

If the tiles on the roof weren't flat enough, she could have just placed a deck chair.

"Miss Drake, it's not a good habit to eat while hanging upside down. Can you put down the sea animal's meat first?"

"Don't worry about this kind of thing. This way you can feel the food rising slowly in your throat against gravity. Aren't you curious why I said your general has a lot of resentment?"

"You will naturally say it when it's time to say it. If you don't want to say it, it will be useless for me to ask. If you don't say it, I will leave first. Hiyori-sama has already arrived at the entrance of the palace."

"Tch, that's boring. She has a wakizashi in her sleeve, maybe she will be very passionate."

Thanks to the ability of Roentgen cats, Drake's eyes have the ability to see through. Except for Jhin's special fabric and Shaina's bone mask, ordinary clothes cannot stop her.

There was no difference between being naked in front of her. Derek could see that there was an ordinary wakizashi in the wide sleeves. It looked like the style was made by a giant blacksmith.

The hot-blooded term is a cold joke that Drake learned from Kuzan, which is used to express a certain special meaning, but Kikunochori has no interest in this "cold joke".

As Kikunoshi began to accept Drake's existence and understand her character, he realized how much she loves to tease others.

"I told you, Ah Ju, don't make any wrong choices, otherwise it will be very difficult for me."

Before Kikunocheng left, Derek gave him a faint instruction. Although he received no response, the pause in his footsteps showed that he had heard those words.

The meaning of Drake's reminder is very clear. With the appearance of Momonosuke and others from 20 years ago in Wano Country, the existing peace will definitely be broken. In the rising tide, some people will surely sink to the bottom of the sea.

.

People who have been abandoned by the times cannot keep up with the tide of the times. If you want to reverse an era and change it, you cannot do it by shouting a few slogans.

At least in Wano, the wave called the Hundred Beasts is unstoppable.

After a few people met, the team representing the general headed towards Onigashima.

Along the way, everyone seemed taciturn and didn't know what they were thinking. The mood of the accompanying people was not so complicated. Instead, they saw a very strange sight. In the direction of Jiuli, a large group of dark clouds appeared out of thin air in the sky.

Compared with ordinary dark clouds, this black cloud looks stranger, like a collection of large pieces of ink.

There seems to be a big secret hidden in the ink cloud, but this secret is nothing compared to what they are about to encounter.

"Sir Quinn, there is news from the Flower City that Hiwa Kozuki has come to Ghost Island. She seems to be very interested in that kid."

The communication snail on Quinn's body buzzed, and the latest news reached his ears again.

The general's journey is not small. From the Flower Capital to the Ghost Island, it will take a while at normal human speeds. They cannot fly at high speeds like Manderfish and Quinn.

Quinn hasn't even returned to Onigashima yet, let alone Hiyori Kozuki who just received the news.

"Mandelfish, please take the three of them somewhere else to play. Don't go back to Ghost Island yet. What happens next is still not suitable for these little ghosts to watch."

After thinking for a while, Quinn planned to take away the three little ones first. It was too early for them to get involved in this at their age. The father of the three of them was not Kaido, and he had no intention of letting his children grow up at a super speed.

The great cause of the Hyakju family is enough to allow the third generation more time and space to grow up, and to receive appropriate training at the right age.

They have worked hard for decades, and it would be the biggest dereliction of duty if their starting point is still the same as that of someone who started from scratch.

"I understand what you mean, Brother Quinn."

"Well, go to Linghou to have a snowball fight or go to Ximei to fly a kite. Jiuli won't stop now. If it doesn't work, you can go to Baiwu to find an amusement park. You can make arrangements by yourself. I guess it will be over after dark."

"Brother Quinn, you don't have to be so worried about me."

"Don't worry, I'm worried about something going wrong with these three brats. I won't talk about Zeraora and Setsuna. If Mello is accidentally injured, it has some indirect connection with me.

You don’t take it to heart, but your wife takes it to heart, and then blows your pillow every day, what will you do?”

"Well, Rusalka wouldn't do that."

"Oh, your answer explains everything. I'm just taking precautions before it happens. Let's take them to play. And you two, please remember your promise and don't talk nonsense."

Finally, Quinn gave some instructions to Meowna and Wolf before carrying the three people in his hands back to Ghost Island.

Some time later, when Hiyori Kozuki arrived at Onigashima, Quinn had already returned and even arranged for someone to clean Momonosuke and change his clothes. He must not be dirty when meeting the shogun.

"Brother Kaido is fighting again. Master Arceus is not here, and even the phone calls cannot be reached. Why can't anyone be contacted at this critical moment?"

Quinn looked at the Rotom with no signal and the phone bug that no one answered and fell into deep thought.

He was happy to watch the show, but it was hard to decide whether to let Kouzuki Hiwa himself decide at will or whether the beasts should intervene.

The two heads of the family are not here. If the decision made affects the subsequent decision-making, the trouble will fall on you again.

"Miss Yamato, it's up to you to decide on this troublesome matter."

Looking through Rotomri's communication records, Quinn's expression suddenly turned sinister. He and Yamato were already digging holes in each other, and it was unrealistic to reconcile directly.

Since Yamato still has plans for him, it is reasonable for him to counterattack.

Quinn acted quickly and immediately contacted Yamato, intending to let her make decisions about subsequent arrangements.

It was at this time that Hiyori Kozuki met her long-lost brother.

In the empty room, Momonosuke sat blankly in the middle, while Inuarashi and Neko Viper, who had been given muscle relaxants by Quinn, leaned against the wall beside them.

Compared to chains, the restrictions of potions can make them look more natural.

Momonosuke sat in the room trembling.

A pirate just washed him very roughly in the pool for a long time and then put on a set of clothes. There was no maid for him here. This pirate was assigned this kind of task because he lost in gambling.

Today, Momonosuke is full of confusion about the future. Just when he is immersed in fear, a powerful voice comes from outside.

"The General is here!"

Hiyori Kozuki, dressed in luxurious clothes, stepped through the door and finally stopped in front of Momonosuke.

"Brother Momonosuke, long time no see. You are exactly the same as you were 20 years ago."

"You are Hiyori? How did you become a general?"

Looking at the grown-up Hiyori, Momonosuke's face was full of surprise.

Some were surprised at the change in Hiyori's appearance, and some were puzzled that Hiyori could become a general in Wano, a country ruled by beasts.

"Why can't I become a general? You know, brother Momonosuke, I have missed you so much these past 20 years!"

Hiyori seemed to be caressing Momonosuke's head gently, and at the same time, she shook her right hand and slid out the short sword from her sleeve.

With a flash of cold light, Hiyori Kozuki completed the unsheathing of the wakizashi with one hand. The cold light pierced Momonosuke's abdomen. The tip of the knife was only two inches away from piercing Momonosuke's skin, but it stopped.

There it is.

"Hiyori-sama! Please stop!"

Denjiro stood aside with an ugly expression on his face, grabbing the blade that Kouzuki Hiyori stabbed with his bare hands. Blood was already dripping down the blade.

Kikinochei had warned Denjiro before, so he was on guard when Hiyori approached Momonosuke.

"Why not be domineering?"

Hiyori did not put away the knife, but looked at Denjiro with a questioning tone.

"Liu Ying is a martial art. Retainers cannot use martial arts on their lord. It would be disrespectful."

This is why Denjiro did not use haki or weapons, but held the blade with his bare hands. For the same reason, as retainers of the opposite sex, they cannot touch each other's body at will.

"Do you still know that I am a general? Then as a general, I order you to get out of the way and not interfere in Guangyue's family affairs."

I'm going out soon, and I'm trying my best not to be in debt, but if I don't update before 12:30, I'm in debt.
