Master Nekomamushi was a big cat, so Duke Inuarashi was naturally a big dog.
The two men, who had not spoken to each other for a very long time, now sat cross-legged before Bright and Tesoro, both staring at Bright with urgent expressions.
If there was anything in the world that could bring them together again, it had to be something related to Wano Country, something related to the Kozuki Clan.
Just like this moment.
Tesoro looked at Bright with admiration. As expected of his lifelong best friend—he was about to win over both kings of this country.
"So, Bright,"
Master Nekomamushi's voice was equally heated and urgent. "What exactly has Wano Country become now? And how is the Kozuki Clan faring?"
Their loyalty to Oden Kozuki was deeply moving, but to be honest, Bright had his doubts about that loyalty.
As the rulers of a country, was that really a good thing?
Bright knew that after the battle of Onigashima ended in the future and Momonosuke became the new shogun of Wano Country, these two men would give up their positions as Zou's leaders and remain in Wano Country to serve him.
Although everyone had the right to choose their own fate, that was still somewhat irresponsible.
Had they really thought it through before making little rabbit Carrot the king of Zou?
Of course, thinking that was one thing. Bright had no intention of telling others how to live their lives.
He only needed to accomplish what he had come to this country to do.
"To be honest, not very well."
Bright told the two His Majesty the Kings about Wano Country's current situation.
Under the double exploitation of the Beasts Pirates and Orochi's shogunate, Wano Country had almost been reduced to ruins. Everywhere was a scene of decay.
