[Chapter Header Serial·Mother Burial 9·"You want to do it?!"]
[Brin quietly approached and reached out to touch the forehead of the sleeping Perona, trying to use her memory fruit ability to read the other party's information about the island. However, as soon as she reached out, she heard the sound of Perona lying on her side.
A powerful voice of questioning came from the clouds and mist, which shocked Brynn and Laura so much that their hair stood on end and their eyes vomited out... What shocked them even more was the talking cloud itself: Could it be Homitz?!

----------------------------------
"Yo ho ho ho! Mr. Sanji, I didn't expect you to have such a beautiful sister!"
Several people entered the Flower City. The one who made such a sound was naturally an explosive skull. He actually heard that tonight was the Wano Country Fireworks Festival, and wanted to sneak out of the banquet to take a look. By the way, he heard Lin Qi say that Sanji and
Usopp and the others were approaching, so they went to find Lao Kang and pick them up together.
Reiju said: "It seems that Sanji has never mentioned anything about us to you friends."
Sanji said: "Don't make it sound like I'm so heartless. It was that guy who 'executed' me in the first place, right? The Vinsmoke family and I have long since been cut off."
"Yes." Reijiu sighed.
Sanji snorted.
Reijiu said casually: "But if that's the case, why did you agree to help us?"
Sanji said angrily: "I'm not helping you. I'm helping you."
Reiju looked at Sanji, who hummed: "Even if you are no longer my sister, you are still a 'lady'. How can I refuse the request of this poor beautiful lady here?"
"I'm very happy when you compliment me on my beauty," Reiju sighed, "but am I pitiful?"
"If you didn't wear that kind of clothes, you would not only look pitiful, you would even be a little cute."
"'That kind of clothes'? Do you mean your 'Invisible Black' suit that I borrowed? If it weren't for this suit, sister, I wouldn't have been able to escape from Ghost Island..."
"What are you talking about? What about my suit? I don't have that kind of thing." Sanji looked unhappy, "Look, you are very unlovable now."
The two siblings talked about each other in the same way. Although the tone was not fierce, there was a sense of tit-for-tat between you and me. Usopp, Brooke, and Kang who were watching looked at each other in confusion.
Usopp was ashamed. Ever since Sanji picked up his sister named Reiju, the atmosphere between them has been a bit strange...
What's strange?
Sanji clearly doesn't hate his sister, but he acts like he's very resistant to it;
His sister obviously cares about Sanji, but she behaves like an indifferent female killer...
Are the Vinsmoke family a line of tsundere?
Usopp cursed inwardly, walking on the streets of the Flower City. It was almost evening, and the crowds became more and more dense. Residents wore traditional Wano costumes and left their homes. As he lingered, Usopp changed the subject and said: "It's really weird.
They don’t seem to care much about Brooke’s appearance!”
You know, Brooke still has that frank look with his skull head exposed.
But unlike the attention he received a few days ago, this time when he was walking on the road, the people in the Flower City were not frightened by his appearance.
In this regard, Lao Kang said that at the Wano Fireworks Festival, there were many people dressed as monsters, so Brooke's appearance was not so shocking.
"Is this what is called fish eyes?" Usopp looked thoughtful, while Brooke said aggrievedly: "Don't compare me to fish eyes!"
Suddenly, accompanied by Reiju's surprised voice next to him, Sanji's figure disappeared from their side. He stepped on his feet, stepped on the air, climbed higher and higher, and in the blink of an eye he was nearly a hundred meters in the air.
"What is he doing?" Usopp raised his head, "The General's Mansion is right in front, there is no need to jump so high to see..."
"So, what Mr. Sanji saw was not the General's Palace." Brooke said.
Reiju raised her head and muttered to herself: "The direction he is looking at...is the Island of Ghosts."
Lao Kang exclaimed, "Isn't that Kaido's lair?" He was a little confused, "Can you see it here? This is the capital of flowers! It is separated from Onigashima by a bell and a large lake..."
Snapped!
Sanji fell down, his expression a little solemn, "Let's quickly go to the General's Mansion to meet Luffy and the others. Onigashima... is flying this way!"
"What did you say?!"
Lao Kang was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.
Although Usopp and Brooke were surprised, they were not as rude as Kang. "Sure enough, Kaido, like Ayu, also has the ability to move islands..."
"What?!"
Lao Kang looked at the two of them and felt that his world view was severely impacted again. Are you really kidding?
…
When Sanji and others arrived at the Shogun's Mansion, Orochi, who was at the end of his rope, was hysterically scolding Kin'emon and others.
"It was the Kozuki family who lost their virtue first! They did something wrong to me, the Heitan clan! I just got back what I deserved! What's wrong with me?" Orochi's face turned red and spittle flew out as he said, "Jinwei
Gate! Haogoro! Otherwise, why do you think a man like Kozuki Oden would be soft on me, a scumbag in your eyes?!"
Not only Kin'emon's face was livid, but Kuseirou - or Denjiro, he also tightened his grip on the handle of the sword and stared at the big snake.
"Hahaha, don't you understand yet?" Orochi opened his arms and said with a ferocious smile, "For Kozuki Oden, as a Kozuki, he owes me, a black charcoal, far more than everyone else in this country!
He failed to kill me decisively because he actually sympathized with me! As for what I would do to the people of this country by stealing the position of general, what would be the consequences? Do you really think that man who always goes his own way and never cares about what others think?
Does Kozuki Oden care? Hahahahaha..."
"Yes! More than twenty years ago, Kaido and I used many hostages to threaten Kozuki Oden and pretend to be a fool, His Highness. But in fact, even Kaido did not have the confidence to restrict his personal freedom! With Kozuki Oden's
With his strength, if he secretly connects tens of thousands of warriors in Wano, even Kaido and I can only watch helplessly! But has Kozuki Oden done this?"
Orochi's beard and hair were messy, and he danced, "Kozuki Oden sympathizes with me! He is soft-hearted! So what? So he thinks I am essentially a good person? Hahahaha... This kind of self-deception, as long as he and Kin'emon, Raizo, Kawamatsu
, Haogoro... As long as he discusses it with any of you, he will understand that it is not worthwhile at all, right?" He pointed his hand at Kin'emon, Raizo, Kawamatsu, Haogoro and others, whose faces became increasingly ugly one by one.
"Kozuki Oden, I am the only one who is supreme! Kozuki Oden, I am invincible in the world!"
The big snake laughed wildly and said, "Do you really understand him? On the other hand, does he really understand you? He laughs, he cries, he is moved by himself! Right or wrong, it's all his fault! Ask yourselves, what's wrong with you?
Has anyone really influenced our great hero Oden? Don’t be obsessed with it, you have never even stopped him from abandoning this country and venturing out to sea! That man named Kozuki Oden, really..."
Orochi's expression became gloomy and sinister, he looked around at everyone, and sneered, "Do I regard you as brothers - no, do I regard you as friends?"
The villain who was about to die was also crazy. The Orochi's violent roar was like a thousand needles washing through the hearts of Kin'emon and others.
The entire banquet became extremely quiet for a while, with only a few sounds of continuous eating remaining.
The hand holding the sword trembled slightly. He had always been a counselor among the samurai under Oden-sama, but Oden-sama didn't mention a word about those things at the beginning. Even as a retainer, he didn't reveal anything about it until Orochi broke the contract many years later.
, only when Master Oden completely stopped thinking about it, did he reveal the whole truth, and then immediately led everyone to defeat Kaido...
If Oden-sama had discussed the matter with himself and others from the beginning, would there have been a better plan? Could there have been a different ending?
Have you... ever resented Oden-sama for a moment?
The skinny Hagogoro seemed to become more rickety in an instant. If the time goes back more than 20 years ago, the day when Oden just returned from the sea. With the public resentment accumulated by Orochi in Wano Country at that time, and with Kozuki Oden's rising reputation,
As long as he raises his arms and calls out, the warriors from the Flower City, Suzuo, Bai Wu, Nozomi, Tuwan, and all the villages in Jiuli will naturally gather to respond, and an army of tens of thousands of warriors will be formed overnight. Then, with such an army, they will press against Orochi.
, Kaido’s words…
Among the others present, Ace, Marco and others just watched. The latter wanted to say something fair for the Oden brothers, but on the one hand, he felt that what Orochi said was actually reasonable. On the other hand, the captain
Ace didn't express his position, and he couldn't say anything. As for Ace...he was eating while observing the reactions of the people present. In fact, he had never met the former captain of the second division, Kozuki Oden, his father, or even Yamato.
Everyone admires him very much, but it seems that there is something hidden behind those events back then?
Xiaoyu sat obediently next to Luffy, eating slowly and quickly like a little squirrel, while Xiaozi, the courtesan who was also present, pursed her lips tightly and clenched her slender hands tightly.
Luffy's mouth was full of meat and he said vaguely: "It's so complicated... In fact, as long as Kaido is defeated, all problems will be solved, right?"
Chopper said from the side: "That Oden seemed unable to defeat Kaido at that time?"
"But he's the only one who can get there?" Luffy asked strangely, "And doesn't he have so many people willing to help him?"
"That's right." Chopper sat down to drink tea and sighed like a little old man, "He's so stupid!"
Xiaoyu puffed up her face and wanted to refute, don't talk about Oden-sama of the Kozuki family like that. Chopper was startled by what she saw. He almost thought that she was going to use her devil fruit ability to deal with him, so he ran to Zoro in a hurry - look
Seeing the cute talking reindeer's reaction, Xiaoyu's face froze and she lowered her head sadly. Even the meat soup in her hand was no longer fragrant.
"Kanjuro! Why are you still standing there!" Orochi took advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned by his nonsense and shouted loudly, "Hurry up and help me escape!"
"Ah, yes!" Kanjuro woke up from a dream and was about to write, but a blaze of flames came from outside the door and kicked his weapon away.
"Fire?" Ace held his chin depressedly.
"Sanji!" Chopper waved happily.
"It seems that a lot of things have happened!" Sanji's black leather shoes were burning with tongues of fire. He loosened his tie and looked around everyone, "But time is urgent... huh?!" When his eyes moved to Xiao Zi's body,
His tone suddenly changed sharply.
"Oh!" Nami said with an "I knew it" look on her face, holding her forehead and sighing.
"This beautiful lady..." Sanji rushed towards Xiao Zi with eyes wide open, but passed by the beauty. Xiao Zi stood up and walked past Sanji with a gust of fragrance.
.
Sanji was startled, then turned around and saw Xiao Zi walking towards the big snake step by step under the attention of everyone.
"Sister Xiaozi..." Xiaonanzi said to herself worriedly. Suddenly she heard a whisper calling her, and turned around to look, "Daddy?" She saw Lao Kang standing next to Reijiu, Brooke, and Usopp, and her eyes suddenly flashed.
Liang, quickly rushed over, "Dad, why are you here too?"
"I am Hiyori Kozuki."
Lao Kang hugged his adopted daughter and was about to speak when he heard this earth-shattering voice - it came from the oiran Xiao Zi!
The same people who were almost petrified and stunned were Kinemon, Raizo, Haogoro and even Kanjuro, as well as the unbelievable Kawamatsu. He was separated from His Highness Hiyori, but he never expected that when they met again, His Highness
He has actually become the oiran of Wano Country. This...
"Xiao Zi?!" The one who was the most shocked was actually Orochi. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked at the expressionless Xiao Zi in disbelief, "Are you Kozuki Hiyori? This, how is this... how is this possible?!"
"You just said that my father felt that the Kozuki family owed something to the Heitan family, so that's why he didn't kill you decisively back then."
Xiao Zi stared at Orochi and stretched out a hand to the side, "The person who owes Heitan may be the Kozuki family. But for the past twenty years, it is you Heitan Orochi who owes this country to Wano. There is nothing wrong with that.
Bar?"
Xiaoyu exclaimed: "Master?"
Her master, the swordsmith Feiqie, came to Xiao Zi at some unknown time, bowed his head and took out a long box, opened it, and Kinemon and others were shocked: "Master Oden's double swords - Tianyu
Yu Zhan and Yama?!" Even Zoro, who was watching coldly not far away, couldn't help but praise "Good knife", and his hands felt itchy for a moment.
Fei Che ignored them. He couldn't touch Yama, so he only raised the knife box high. Xiao Zi reached out and grabbed the handle of Yama's knife.
"Hiyori-sama! No!" Kinemon and others suddenly changed their colors. Except for Oden-sama, no one has ever been able to conquer this Yama... But the next second, they were shocked. Mitsutsuki Hiyori, whose stage name is Kopura,
He actually calmly held the Yama, and wisps of flowing cherry blossoms were intertwined between the jade hands holding the handle.
Zoro smiled and said: "No wonder Lin Qi said you are very powerful. You are indeed very powerful!"
"Did Lynch say that?" Luffy was surprised, "That means it's really awesome."
Chopper, Nami, Sanji and others all thought so.
"Wait, Xiaozi... no, Hiyori..." Orochi looked at the approaching demon-like Enma Blade and the beauty he had been obsessed with so far, and begged with sweating profusely, "Do you remember, I
I like you so much, you can’t..."
Xiao Zi said: "But I hate you. I hate all of you."
Whoosh!
Along with a burst of blood, the big snake was decapitated by Yama's sword.
This is the last head.
…
When Lynch and Robin came back, what they saw was a scene of a big snake's head rolling over in a pool of blood. The atmosphere among these people seemed a bit heavy now!
Not eating well?
He and Robin looked at each other and asked: "We are a step too late, the black charcoal snake has died. Do you still want to tell them?"
The blade of Yama's sword was dripping with blood. Robin looked at the oiran holding the sword and sighed softly: "Maybe I should talk to her before leaving."
"say what?"
Nami, who was muttering to Sanji and others over there, turned around and said, "No, now is not the time to say anything - no, Sister Robin, Lynch, the Ghost Island is coming over!"
