One Piece: Master Kaido, online teaching

Chapter 87 Oden retainer’s assist

Behind the bell, weapons processing factory.

Three days ago, a dozen powerful masked warriors invaded this place at night, stealing a large number of weapons from the joint prisoners and destroying many facilities.

"It's really outrageous!"

Kaido looked at the destroyed factory and was very dissatisfied. Now is the time when the beasts are spending money like water. To give him some tricks, those warriors are too courageous.

In addition, the weapons factories in each township do not have many remaining forces, but they are all built in the middle of the mountains, making them easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is very difficult to enter them.

Unless a strong man like Hao Goro takes action in person, it is impossible for a dozen warriors to break in and take away so many prisoners.

Unless, there is an insider!

Weapons processing plants in various villages were attacked at the same time. It was obviously a well-planned invasion. The strength of the Haogoro family alone would never be able to achieve this level. Someone was secretly helping them.

"Oden, or the daimyo of each village?"

There are only a few resistance forces in Wano, and you can guess them with your toes, but they are probably not the only ones who can do it so beautifully.

"I'm afraid there's also the Black Carbon Orochi."

The warriors are all very poor. How can they get the money to buy the internal agents? The guards are all his people. If they don't see the money, they won't help outsiders even if they are killed.

Kaido looked playfully, turned to look at his angry daughter Yamato beside him, and asked with a smile: "How do you feel now?"

"Damn it, don't let me catch them!"

Yamato gritted his teeth angrily, Suzugo was now her territory, how could such rampant behavior be allowed, not to mention that the people of Suzugo would be the ones to pay for the loss of the weapons factory.

Whether it is repairing factory facilities or recruiting labor to replace prisoners, a lot of manpower and material resources are required.

Even if she pays wages, few people are willing to work in the factory, but the weapons factory must be restored to its original state, and my father will not tolerate her willfulness in this matter.

"I hate samurai!"

On the issue of treating samurai, Yamato reached a consensus with Kaido for the first time.

Kaido raised his eyebrows slightly, what's going on? This girl's attitude towards samurai suddenly changed. She used to like samurai very much.

"Yamato, did something bad happen to you?"

"Father, I visited various daimyo before, and finally I went to Oden Castle in Kuri."

Yamato complained unhappily.

During the previous visit, Bai Wu, Nozomi, and Tuwan were very good names. Even though they were a little hostile to her because of their positions, they still got along very happily in the end.

The cooperation plan for borrowing grain and repaying money has also reached a consensus. The three lords will let the people under their rule allocate part of the land to grow cotton and other cash crops.

But when they arrived at Kuri, especially after arriving at Oden Castle, Kozuki Oden's retainers became more and more vicious. Not only were they rude, they blocked the door and told her to leave.

Especially the very big cat demon, who barked the most ferociously and even said he would bite her to death!

Because of this incident, the samurai and the Shinsengumi almost came to blows.

"Those warriors are so abominable!"

The more Yamato thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. She came to the door with good intentions, but was treated coldly. Originally, this was nothing. She had long understood that the relationship between the other party and her father was not good.

But when those Oden retainers who claimed to be samurai were confronting the Shinsengumi, they kept taunting the Shinsengumi, saying that they were not worthy of becoming samurai, were not qualified to bear swords, and should immediately commit seppuku and apologize, which made her furious.

Are samurai so superior to others that they should be proud of?

For the first time, Yamato realized that samurai were originally the privileged class of this country and existed above the common people.

This was the real reason why she began to hate the samurai. It was not personal. There were many people she liked among the samurai, such as Sasaki and Uncle Shigezuki Usumaru.

"I see."

Kaido smiled. Kinemon and the others were really helpful, but those guys were originally a group of country gangsters. Wouldn't they think they had become Oden's retainers, so they flew up the branches and turned into phoenixes?

If you dare to bully his daughter, you are seeking death!

Yamato was still a little puzzled, so he stretched out his hand to pull Kaido's sleeve and whispered: "Father, why are they so fierce?"

Even if the samurai she met before were very arrogant, they would not be too cruel to her, and she is a daimyo now!

Kaido's eyes were slightly cold: "Because those guys know very well that one of Kozuki and the beasts must disappear, so they prevent you from meeting Kozuki Oden. They are afraid."

"Fear?"

"I'm afraid that Kozuki Oden will be shaken!"

The purpose of having Yamato visit the daimyo was to shake their will to resist, especially Kozuki Oden.

After seeing Yamato, that fool His Highness will most likely agree with Yamato's actions, and may even support Yamato to become a general.

But this is absolutely unacceptable to Kinemon and others. If Oden fails to fight against the beasts, as retainers, their fate will be self-evident. There is still a possibility of surrender for Hao Goro and others, but they cannot.

Therefore, whether it is for Kozuki or to protect their own interests, they must prevent Yamato from contacting Oden to prevent their master from "turning over to the enemy".

Those guys are much smarter than His Highness the fool!

"Uh-huh-huh, it will be over soon!"

The two came to the inside of the factory, where there were still a few craftsmen forging weapons seriously.

"Hey, what a surprise."

Kaido came to Shigetsu Gyumaru and said in surprise: "I thought you would leave with the thief."

"My sentence has not yet expired, how can I leave this place with dignity?"

Shigeyue Niuwan didn't even raise his head and continued to hammer out the unformed blade.

On the night when the factory was attacked, many samurai indeed asked him to leave, including his retainers, but he refused.

The three-year period has not yet expired.

In addition, although he is a prisoner, he is very aware of the changes in the outside world. Yamato often asks him for advice on swordsmanship and management issues, and the craftsmen in the factory will also convey news from the outside to him.

This was an important reason why he chose to stay in the factory. On the one hand, it was his disappointment in Oden, and on the other hand, his gradually deepening trust in Yamato. Under the ebb and flow of each other, his strong samurai heart could not help but be shaken.

Kaido nodded, said nothing more, and took Yamato away. He would check on the farming situation behind the bell later, and prepare textile factories and other facilities as soon as possible.

On the other side, the city of flowers.

Under Jin's leadership, the pirates of the Hundred Beasts surrounded the Leopard Goro family tightly. Except for Leopard Goro and his wife, all the other brothers were tied up, and the battle was about to break out.

Nozomi, Bai Wu, and Tuwan also had similar situations.

The weapons factory suffered serious losses, and it was impossible for the beasts to react at all. It was just that Boss Kaido was about to return, so he waited patiently for a few days.

Now, it's time to hunt down the escaped prisoner, the stolen weapons, and the mastermind of the theft!
