Uchiha Madara
"During the long period of Wano Country's isolation, they had no idea what the Four Emperors meant on the outer seas. They simply continued to hate and loathe pirates, attempting to cut off their heads as before to warn the outside world."
"As expected, in just half a day, more than ten daimyo were easily wiped out by the Beasts Pirates. Only then did the people of Wano Country realize that the newest group of pirates to enter Wano Country was different from the past. They were not weak and easy to bully, but ferocious and brutal demonic dragons."
"Oden Kozuki Oden, who once sailed on the Pirate Kings's ship and had extensive knowledge of the outside world, was naturally not as shallow and ignorant as others. If possible, I think he would never want to face an enemy like Kaido. However, the Kozuki family, known as the 'Stonemason Family,' was the object of Kaido's covetousness. From the beginning, the two sides stood on the opposite side of a fight to the death."
"The battle was about to break out. Soon, Kaido showed the people of Wano Country what terror was. No one and no weapon could effectively harm Kaido. Apart from Kozuki Oden, who could barely hold him back, anyone who faced Kaido would only face defeat and death."
"Wano Country is known to the outside world as the Country of Master Swordsman. It is a country that produces many Master Swordsman. Even Great Sword Master who are almost extinct in the outside world can be found in Wano Country, such as Kozuki Oden and Kurozumi Orochi. In addition, a large number of the Famous Swords that are passed down on the sea were made by blacksmiths in Wano Country. It is this powerful armed force that allows Wano Country to maintain its independence. Even the Marine Headquarters does not dare to put too much pressure on it."
"However, this powerful samurai nation seemed utterly vulnerable in the face of Kaido. Swordsmen who abandoned defense in pursuit of ultimate attack were like natural enemies in the face of Kaido, a monster with almost infinite defense and infinite vitality."
"Like a sword and a shield, Kaido might be considered the strongest shield, but unfortunately, Wano Country is not the strongest sword. The long-term isolation has caused Wano Country's swordsmanship to fall behind the world, at least at the level of top power. In my opinion, perhaps only by reaching the level of the World's Greatest Swordsman, like Hawkeye, can one truly break Kaido's shield."
"Fortunately, apart from Kaido, the powerful armed forces of Wano Country left an indelible impression on the Beasts Pirates, slightly hindering Kaido's advance."
"If that were all, it might have turned into a protracted war. But Kurozumi Orochi secretly approached Kaido, and the two reached an agreement to jointly destroy the Kozuki Family. As a result, the balance was broken, and the Kozuki Family, which was already struggling to survive, was on the verge of collapse. Under the combined attack of Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi, they were close to defeat and on the verge of death."
"It's rare to see someone with Kaido's brains actually make a deal with someone like that!" Roy remarked.
Roy glanced at the others, his lips twitching in exasperation. Apart from the swordsman Kenkon and Cavendish, the other three had no interest in the history of Wano Country and were already lost in their own thoughts.
"Harvey, how do you know so much about these things?" Kenkon Soul asked with a strange expression.
"If the Kozuki Family is the most powerful among the more than two hundred daimyo in Wano Country, followed by the Tokugawa Family, then the Oda Family comes next, and I am the young lord of the Oda Family." Harvey exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "Originally, my Oda Family adhered to a policy of absolute neutrality. Among the more than two hundred daimyo, half supported the Kozuki Family, half of the remaining Tokugawa Family, and the last group followed closely behind my Oda Family, hoping to maintain their own territory with a neutral attitude."
"After Kurozumi Orochi joined forces with Kaido, my father was originally inclined to support the Kozuki Family. After all, introducing outside pirates was a taboo. Unfortunately, my father still misjudged Kozuki Oden."
"There's no way around it. The side that Kozuki Oden presented to the world was just too perfect. So perfect that everyone thought he was an absolute saint. Little did they know that this was just an outward manifestation of his ruthless nature."
"After discovering that my father was still wavering, he decisively set up Hongmen Banquet to wipe out my Oda Family and then pin the blame on Kurozumi Orochi. Given Kozuki Oden's previously perfect image and Kurozumi Orochi's bad reputation, the forces that followed my Oda Family naturally chose to believe in Kozuki Oden and eventually joined his ranks."
"With the support of this new force, the Kozuki Family was finally able to barely stabilize their defeat, while I fled all the way to the first half of the Grand Line, hoping to hone my skills into Great Sword Master before returning to take revenge," Harvey said in a deep voice. "That's my story."
"This plot twist of yours is really..." Cavendish shook his head, unsure of what to say.
"Yeah, I knew that guy wasn't any good." Roy nodded calmly. It's normal that someone who could raise Momonosuke isn't a good person either.
Of all that Harvey said, Roy felt the most useful point was that Momonosuke was already in his twenties or thirties. After all, if Momonosuke was only eight years old five years from now, it would be too contrary to the core socialist values to lay a hand on a three-year-old child. What if it got censored... cough cough.
"Captain, to make things easier, I think we should each adopt a pseudonym. It would be a loss if we attracted Kaido's attention too early," Harvey suggested, quickly recovering from his reverie.
"A pseudonym?" Roy stroked his smooth chin and said with a rather wicked sense of humor, "Alright, then, Old Sand, you can call Gaara during your time in Wano Country."
"Huh?" Crocodile the Sand was completely bewildered. He thought of the guy named Law that he had captured in the Rommel Kingdom before, and a chill ran down his spine.
"Enel, you'll be called Er Zhu Zi ... oops, no, I mean, I'll call Uchiha Sasuke."
Enel was equally bewildered, but when he thought that his name was at least much more normal than names like Gaara, he accepted it without any qualms.
"As for Augustine, you shall be called Two Scales Onoki." Augustine was overjoyed at Roy's bestowal of a name. If Roy hadn't restrained him beforehand, he probably would have been moved to tears.
"As for me, how about I be called Uchiha Itachi, since I can do Tsukuyomi?" Roy suddenly glanced at Enel's dead fish eyes and couldn't help but shiver. "Or maybe I should just call me Uchiha Madara in Wano Country."
