days in the world of pirates

On the eastern outskirts of the Flower City, there is a leafy mountain forest. No one has set foot here all year round, so no one knows that there is an abandoned building deep in this dense forest.

It is Yan Mo Tang.

In other words, with the fall of the Kozuki family, this place was completely lonely and became a thing of the past.

But today, we welcomed a group of guests from afar.

After repelling the pursuers of the Black Carbon Orochi, Zoro Sanji and others temporarily retreated here to discuss the next matter.

Caishen Town is not a suitable place to discuss matters, and it can easily bring disaster to the residents there.

Therefore, this becomes a very suitable place.

In the dilapidated Yan Mo Hall, the arrival of a group of people added a lot of popularity to the place, making it very crowded.

They were still discussing what to do.

"In other words, how many adults are going to Kuri to meet up with your lost captain companion and Lord Momonosuke?"

The person who spoke was the old man of the Shuoyue Kang family. He was also an insider who knew all the plans. He had also given a lot of help to many hidden people in the Guangyue family before.

The reason why he was caught by the Black Tan Orochi this time was because their actions were partly known to the Black Tan Orochi due to the traitor's report, so he took the initiative to take the blame.

Fortunately, he was saved by Mawson, otherwise he would have really died this time.

Nami has been the external spokesperson of the Straw Hats many times, and now is no exception. She replied: "Yes, we have discussed it before. Although Luffy and the others are separated from us, they will definitely find Momoko.

We also need to join them."

Luffy will definitely be fine with Jinbei. Although Usopp and the others didn't see it, in terms of survivability, this guy can definitely deceive many people.

In fact, Nami was right about this.

At this time, Usopp had already entered the Flower City, and he was dressed like a local, looking much luckier than them.

I don't know where he got the costume from.

"In this case, adults, please hurry up. The distance from here to Jiuli is not close. And there are many checkpoints along the way, and those checkpoints also have Orochi and Kaido's troops.

When those who have escaped back report the situation to Orochi, I'm afraid your wanted orders will be spread all over the country."

Although Shuoyue Kang's family seems very unreliable, he is actually the most reliable one.

Even before Orochi usurped the throne, Hakumu, where the Shigetsuki Yasu family was located, was one of the wealthiest places in the entire Wano Country.

It was all because of him that he kept this place in order.

"However, we are not familiar with this place, so how to get to Jiuli is still a problem." Nami frowned.

Shuoyue Kangjia scratched his disproportionately big head and jumped a few times from time to time. He looked like a funny little old man.

Suddenly, he stopped, clapped his hands, and said: "I understand, some adults can take me with them, so that I can show you the way.

Although I haven't been to Jiuli for a long time, I am still very familiar with the route there.

But if this happens, I won't be able to stay and protect Xiao Nanzi and Hiyori-sama, which is a difficult problem."

Sauron and others have black streaks all over their heads.

During the battle just now, you, an old man, ran to the back in an instant. It's strange that you can be expected to protect others.

Sanji's eyes lit up after listening to Shigetsuki Yasuya's words. He stepped forward, lit a cigarette he didn't know where he got it from, and said, "Why don't you just let me stay and protect Miss Hiyori and Konanko? As a knight,

, you should protect the beautiful princess at this time."

"Sanji-kun is wrong." Brooke also said that he is qualified for this job, and he also gave a reason that Sanji could not refute, "As a gentleman, I am the best candidate to stay.

After all, it’s hard to travel with a skeleton, and Nami-chan and Robin-chan also need Sanji-kun’s protection, so why not leave this matter to me, yohohoho~”

Nami was absolutely furious at this moment. These two perverts couldn't walk when they saw the beautiful woman!

Are you still thinking about this kind of thing now?!

To actually be courteous to another woman in front of her is simply unforgivable.

She directly suppressed the two of them: "Okay, you don't have to argue anymore, just leave this matter to Sauron."

"Um?!"

Zoro was very dissatisfied, "Why should you leave it to me? I also need to meet up with Luffy."

"Why don't you have any idea?" Nami replied unhappily: "I have to look for you so many times with you, and how much time will it be wasted?

Do you have any objections to a guy who can lose everyone by following him?"

Zoro was a little embarrassed: "How could you, a woman like you, get lost?"

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Zoro, even the Shigetsuki family, Xiaonanzi and Hiyori.

Nod like crazy!

They had just had a very deep understanding of Sauron's ability to recognize directions.

That is truly invincible.

"Hey!" Zoro was very unhappy. He walked aside, found a place to lean against, and folded his arms: "Forget it, I won't go if you don't want to go. I don't care about it!"

Therefore, the final opinion is determined.

Sanji, Nami, Robin, Franky Brook, and Chopper took Yasumo Shimozuki's family to Kuri, while Zoro stayed to take care of Hiyori and Konanko who were still injured.

Sanji and Brook expressed a little displeasure, but they could only hold it in under Nami's fist.

"Zoron and Hiyori, please pay attention to our news at all times. We will not meet again until the official attack on the Black Carbon Orochi. During this time, Zoro, you must protect Miss Hiyori."

"I know, it's so noisy!" Zoro said impatiently.

Well, sometimes he feels that women are troublesome.

In fact, although Zoro is unreliable in recognizing the way, he feels pretty accurate at other times.

For example, not long after Nami and her group left, Hiyori found him.

…

…

"Lord Sauron."

"Um?"

Zoro opened his eyes. As a late-night swordsman whose daily routine was to go to bed at four in the morning, he spent a lot of time catching up on sleep during the day.

Kozuki Hiyori looked serious, looked at the three swords on Zoro's waist, and asked: "Is the sword you are wearing the famous sword [Autumn Water], one of the twenty-one skills of the Great Quick Sword?"

Although the tone was a question, Hiyori Kouzuki was absolutely certain that the sword was Qiushui.

Sauron also nodded and admitted: "Yes, this sword is [Qiu Shui]."

"Lord Zoro, although it is offensive, please leave this sword to Wano Country."

"What did you say? You rude woman! This is my knife."

Zoro jumped three feet high.

If it weren't for the fact that he doesn't hit women, if he were a man, Zoro would definitely give him the Thirty-Six Troubles.

For Sauron, a knife is his second life.

"No, [Autumn Water] is the national treasure of Wano Country. It is the sword left by the sword god Ryoma-senpai. It's just that this sword was placed in the shrine enshrined in Wano Country with Ryoma-senpai. I don't know when it was stolen by a despicable thief.

His body was stolen, and this [Autumn Water] was also stolen along with it.

For Wano, [Autumn Water] is a sacred weapon of Wano, and its loss is a very painful thing for this country, so please return [Autumn Water] to this country!"

Zoro frowned, finally understanding what happened to this [Autumn Water].

Back in the Terror Triangle, the zombie Ryoma was possessed by Brooke's shadow, and this sword was indeed Ryoma's saber.

In this case, it is possible that Moria took this knife with him when he stole Ryoma's body.

but……

Now it is his trophy, that is his knife.

What about Wano’s national treasure?

It has nothing to do with him, and he didn't do it anyway. Zoro has a clear conscience.

Besides, this black sword [Qiushui] has been with him for a long time, and he has long been used to it. It is impossible to exchange it if it is returned to Wano Country.

Don't even think about it in this life, anyway, this is his trophy, it is his thing.

"This is my trophy. No matter what happened in the beginning, it is mine now." Sauron did not give in.

He's not some curly-browed kappa who can't walk when he sees a pretty woman.

"Please wait a moment."

Kozuki Hiyori turned around and walked into the Yan Mo Hall. Not long after, she came out holding a knife in both hands.

This is a knife that looks equally extraordinary.

There are petal-like carvings on the scabbard. The sword has three petals. The handle is the same as the scabbard, and the whole body is mainly black.

"My father was a very powerful warrior during his lifetime. He had two swords. One was the [Tian Yu Yu Zhan], one of the twenty-one skills of the great sword. That sword was a symbol of being the successor of the general. My father used it during his lifetime.

Passed it on to my brother Momonosuke."

As Hiyori Kozuki spoke, he walked up to Zoro and handed over the knife in his hand: "The other one is the knife in my hand, [Yama], which is also one of the twenty-one skills of the Great Knife.

My father left this knife to me.

I didn't make it clear just now, if you are willing to leave [Qiushui] to this country, then I will give you this [Yama] in exchange.

Although this [Enma] is not a black sword, it is the only sword that has injured Kaido. In exchange for you, your strength should not be damaged."

"No." Zoro shook his head.

Kozuki Hiwa showed a disappointed expression and said in a low voice: "Don't you want, Your Excellency Zoro?"

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was... [Yama] was not the only sword that wounded Kaido.

There is another one that is even more powerful, and that was the [Yogei] in the hands of Mawson, the most powerful general in the navy, more than a year ago, which caused even more serious injuries to Kaido."

Zoro took the knife from Hiyori Kozuki's hand, untied the autumn water and handed it over, "However, since you exchanged this knife for [Autumn Water], then just keep it.

Whether the sword is strong or not depends on whose hand it is!

The reason why I was unwilling to keep [Qiu Shui] before was because I am a three-sword swordsman, and I cannot display my full strength without a sword. It is not for any other reason."

"What others can do, I can do too!"
