Traveling Together, Manhunt, Tenguyama Hitetsu

Kozuki Hiyori?

Sirius had made this guess the moment he saw the woman.

After all, that head of bright green hair was just too eye-catching; whether it was beautiful or not was secondary.

But it really was her!

Sirius was genuinely surprised.

Shouldn't she have already gone to Orochi's side as Courtesan and infiltrator by now?

How did they end up here? And it seems like they were waiting for them on purpose.

This is very strange. Their actions today were completely impromptu. How did this woman know they would be here?

"Kozuki Hiyori?"

Yamato paused for a moment, then excitedly jumped off Jack's back and ran quickly to Kozuki Hiyori.

"You are Oden's daughter! A girl from that time!"

"Hmm, it's been a long time, Yamato."

With Kozuki Hiyori said, "It's been ten years since we last met, hasn't it?"

Wow, you're so outgoing! Who taught you that?

"Yes, yes, yes! Exactly ten years!"

Yamato looked delighted, then turned around and shouted at Sirius.

"Sirius, it's Hiyori! Do you remember? We met ten years ago!"

They did meet ten years ago.

Within the raging flames of Oden Castle, Sirius and Yamato had a brief encounter with this woman.

She was nestled in her mother's arms at that time.

"Is it someone we know?" Maria asked as she walked over.

"I guess so."

Sirius jumped down, walked over, and looked Kozuki Hiyori and down a few times.

She is indeed an extraordinary beauty; it's no wonder that in the original work, both Teacher Queen and Orochi were obsessed with her.

"While this long-awaited reunion is wonderful, Hiyori, may I ask you a question?"

Sirius was direct: their whereabouts must not be revealed.

He was friends with Oden, but not with Oden's children.

"Sirius, you want to ask how I knew you would come here, right?"

I have to say that although the name also contains the word "", Hiyori is obviously much smarter than Yamato.

Before Sirius could ask, she smiled and said, "Because I've been watching you all."

Sirius raised an eyebrow.

"I know you've always wanted to leave the Beasts Pirates and set sail, but you haven't been able to because of Kaido's kindness."

Hiyori said, "So when I learned that you had returned with Kaido, I wondered if the debt of gratitude had already been repaid."

"Since you're going out to sea, you'll definitely need to take a boat, so I've decided to wait for you here."

You're quite well-informed, aren't you?

Was it overheard from the Orochi?

Sirius had no doubt that Orochi would let something slip in front of Hiyori.

"So, if it weren't today, if we failed and couldn't get off Onigashima, if we decided to go somewhere else, what would you do?" Sirius asked with great interest.

"If it's either of the first two, then I will continue to wait, because I believe Kaido definitely can't stop you," Hiyori said calmly.

"If you choose a different place to go out to sea," she said, "Then I'll have to try going out to sea alone."

This woman is serious!

"Going to sea? You want to go to sea?"

Yamato, however, exclaimed with delight, "You said you were waiting for us? Do you mean you want to go out to sea with us?"

"That's right."

Kozuki Hiyori nodded gently. "Because I feel that if I'm with you, I can see hope for changing this country."

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "Even though I've left the Beasts Pirates, I have no intention of being Teacher Kaido's enemy."

"I wouldn't make such a rude request," Hiyori a smile. "Just letting me follow you is enough."

"This feels extremely suspicious!"

Ulti made no attempt to lower her voice.

Page One wholeheartedly agreed with his sister's remarks this time, nodding repeatedly.

"Let's see what Sirius decides," Jack said in a muffled voice.

"Hmm... it's not surprising that Oden's daughter would have such thoughts..."

Yamato pouted, looking deep in thought, then asked Sirius hesitantly, "Sirius, what do you think?"

What do I think?

I also find it very troublesome.

This "Kozuki Hiyori" combination is a big problem.

Shouldn't this woman from the original work be the Courtesan in the Flower Capital right now?

If it weren't for the fact that the old woman with the Clone-Clone Fruit on Orochi's side had died of old age in the past three years, Sirius would have even suspected that this Kozuki Hiyori was that old woman in disguise.

So what should I do with her?

Hiyori some nostalgia, "Sirius may not remember, but it was about three years ago, at the Fire Festival held in the Flower Capital. You said then that it was a foolish thing to entrust one's fate to others."

Sirius was taken aback. Three years ago? The Fire Festival?

Was it your first time going out to sea?

"You're here too?" Sirius asked in surprise.

What a coincidence!

"I made up my mind then,"

Hiyori said, "You must take your own destiny into your own hands."

"I have been preparing for this for three years."

Her hand rested on the hilt of the sword at her waist.

Sirius noticed that, unlike the fair skin elsewhere, her hands had a layer of calluses.

"Please take me out to sea, Sirius."

So, it was his words of advice to Maria that incidentally changed her decision?

This is absolutely ridiculous!

"You're also being hunted by the Beasts Pirates now, so we should be on the same side,"

Hiyori smiled gently, "Although I am not very talented, I believe I have some swordsmanship skills and should be able to be of some help."

Sirius paused for a moment, then pointed his thumb behind him, grinned, and said, "The elephant."

Hiyori paused for a moment, then smiled brightly, "Thank you very much. Please take care of me then."

"Great! We have a new friend!"

Yamato joy.

Sirius, "Hiyori, you've come at the right time. I have a question. Oden told me back then that there's a very famous swordsmith in Kuri. Do you know where he is?"

Hiyori and said, "Sirius, are you referring to Master Tenguyama Hitetsu? I visited him a few times with my parents when I was little. He had a very good relationship with my father, and the Ame no Habakiri was made by him."

"If Sirius wants to go, I can lead the way."

"Great! Let's get going!"

Shortly after Sirius and his group left, the ferocious Azure Dragon Kaido descended upon the Submerged Port.

The sight of pirates lying unconscious everywhere made Kaido frown.

After waking up all the pirates in the port, Kaido ordered them to search the entire port, inside and out.

Not a single ship is missing!

In the end, the pirates came to this conclusion.

Kaido furrowed brows finally relaxed a little. "That kid either didn't use a ship, or,"

"Still in Wano Country!"

"I'll contact Jin right away."

Queen immediately called Jhin.

The final feedback was that he didn't see any ships setting sail, nor did he see Sirius and his companions wading out to sea on the ice.

"Very good! Your mind is as sharp as ever!"

Kaido sneered, "Send out all the pirates, and contact Orochi's side as well, have his men cooperate, turn the entire Wano Country upside down, I want to see where they can hide!"

Action has already begun here as well.

As the Jade Rabbit sets in the west and the Golden Crow rises in the east, time gradually passes.

Amigasa Village is a small village nestled in the Kuri Mountains. It was named after its residents, who have made a living by weaving bamboo hats for generations.

Because it's so small and has so few people, even the Orochi can't get much out of it, so very few people come here.

Tenguyama Hitetsu has lived in this village for many years. He was here before Orochi ruled the country, and he has been here ever since.

However, unlike before the country completely fell into the hands of Orochi and Kaido, he often had friends visiting him, and he would also frequently go out to visit his friends.

He hasn't left the village in a long time, and no one has come looking for him for a long time either.

However, on this day, the situation changed.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was a knock on his door.

He initially thought it was someone from the village looking for him, Tenguyama Hitetsu opened the door.

But instead of a beautiful young woman, a beautiful girl appeared before him.

Her emerald green hair always seemed familiar to Fei Che.

"It's been a long time, Master Tenguyama."

The girl smiled and spoke.

Suddenly, Tenguyama Hitetsu's pupils contracted; he realized why the girl looked so familiar.

"You are not --"
