"Snort!!!"

Suddenly, Sakazuki let out a cold snort, his face contorted with displeasure as he spoke.

"This is such an important, extremely serious execution, one that will affect the future of the ocean for the next twenty years!"

Its host is such a flirtatious and glib bitch!

"Hello!"

As soon as Sakazuki finished speaking, Vice Admiral Tsuru gently tapped the table.

"Sakazuki, I hope you can show a little respect for women, especially the bitch you're calling a 'bitch' who doesn't seem to have done anything wrong!"

At this point, Vice Admiral Tsuru clenched his hands, his fingers supporting his chin as he continued watching the live stream.

As for Sakazuki, he took a deep breath, then turned back and refused to look at Tsuru-senpai anymore.

Meanwhile, in the live stream...

Stussy, holding Den Den Mushi, walked from near the makeshift Execution Platform viewpoint towards Gawain.

As they walked, Stussy continued to give his explanations.

"Look, everyone, the war in Wano Country is truly devastating."

I don't know if you all know, but the ruins in this picture were once the capital of Wano Country, the Flower Capital!

In the past, this place was home to millions of residents. Although their lives were unhappy due to Kaido's exploitation, they were at least able to barely survive...

But now, sigh...

After the war, Wano Country's capital was completely destroyed, and eight or nine out of ten of the civilians who once lived there perished!

Gawain was so distressed by this that he lost his appetite for two days.

Because Gawain was worried that the people wouldn't eat, we subordinates also went hungry for two whole days!

So... that's why you saw that young man stuffing himself in front of the camera!

On one hand, that young man, like Gawain, was so grief-stricken by the tragedy caused by Kaido that he could not swallow his food.

On the other hand, wasn't he also treating the meat in his mouth as if it were Kaido's flesh, eating it with an attitude of wanting to drink its blood raw?!

At this point, the Den Den Mushi abruptly changed its focus, quickly Luffy.

Then, Stussy, hiding outside the Den Den Mushi's field of vision, glared at Luffy with displeasure.

Lord Mingming has stipulated that solemnity should be maintained as much as possible during Kaido's execution, to give the deceased emperor basic dignity.

As it turned out, those brats just ignored it completely!

I really want to teach them a lesson!!!

However, Stussy then thought about Luffy's background.

His father is Dragon of the Revolutionary Army, his grandfather is Garp the Hero, Luffy himself is somewhat like Gawain's godson...

This kind of background is absolutely terrifying!

Not to mention, this kid also possesses a talent that even Zephyr is very satisfied with...

Stussy quickly shifted his attention away.

Luffy, haha, no wonder he's the future of our Dark Bird Ship! He can eat and drink so much!

Hehe...

As he thought about it, Stussy continued to adjust the camera position, ensuring that the live broadcast included the crowd gathered in the distance from the Execution Platform.

While filming, she continued her introduction, as planned, to elicit aversion.

"What you are seeing now is the place where the common people of the Flower Capital of Wano Country barely manage to live."

Even though the great Lord Gawain has ordered everyone on the Dark Bird Ship to join the disaster relief efforts, the work remains extremely difficult.

As you can see, we set up more than 8,000 medium-sized tents in two days, but unfortunately, that's still a drop in the bucket.

The devastation in Wano Country was so Ming Dynasty, the last heir of the once Kozuki Family Kozuki Hiyori the current ruler of Wano Country, wept every night!

At this point, Stussy, with a camera in hand, stepped into the crowd.

Her live stream focused on Hiyori was constantly busy in the crowd.

At this moment, Hiyori was dressed in clothing resembling that of Yamato ideal Japanese woman), carefully wiping the face of a refugee child.

Upon seeing the camera approaching, Hiyori was startled, and then immediately burst into tears.

"Oh, it's Director Stussy! It's so great to see you here!"

Although Gawain has provided me with much assistance, even so, the strength of your single ship is insufficient to solve the core problem facing Wano Country: its reconstruction!

Therefore, I would appreciate it if you could introduce me more often on the show, just like you said, give me a little advertising...

If we could gather more heroes to help with the construction of Wano Country, I would be eternally grateful!

Here, I would like to take this opportunity to make a promise to everyone watching the Den Den Mushi!

At this point, Hiyori bowed deeply to the Den Den Mushi.

Then, he raised his head again, his eyes filled with tears, and said...

"As the first official female daimyo in the history of Wano Country, I am willing to dedicate everything to my country!"

Here, I assure you all that within the next five years, I will choose the person who will be of the greatest help to Wano Country and marry him!

I would even forgo the title of Lady; I only wish to use my pure body and deep gratitude to repay those who have brought the greatest help to my country!

At the same time, my child with that person can become the next king of Wano Country after my death!

As soon as she finished speaking, Hiyori's gaze towards the camera showed a newfound strength, and her appearance and words had already excited countless men in front of the Den Den Mushi!

"Ahhh, is this the future queen of Wano Country? What a beautiful woman!!!"

"Even compared to Her Majesty the Pirate Empress who frequently appears in the newspapers, she's no less impressive. Truly an amazing queen!!!"

"Today, today, I'll take my construction team to Wano Country right now!"

"Although I am just a farmer, I am willing to charter three thousand ships to bring all the harvest from my farm and myself to Wano Country!"

"Although I have no interest in women, she calls me a hero, so I have to help her!"

"I even took my pants off! The etiquette in Wano Country is amazing! What a magnificent 90-degree bow!"

"I don't mind my son not being with me!"

"Yamato Nadeshiko!!!"

I love it!

"What a nice view!"

"Her name is Hiyori!"

"Another beautiful woman has been added to the list of the world's most beautiful women. I declare that Hiyori is qualified to be compared with the Little Mermaid and the Mermaid Princess Pirate Empress!"

"No, Her Majesty is much better than the previous two, because the previous two were both Gawain's women!"

But Your Majesty, he could be anyone!

"Don't speak of the Queen so shamelessly! I've decided to fight for her!"

At this very moment, similar sentiments are being heard all over the world.

Any man with some ability, whether single or not, would find it hard to refuse Hiyori's invitation.

Unfortunately, how could they possibly understand?

The reason Hiyori set such a rule was that, while utilizing everyone, she secretly set her sights on a certain person.

Unfortunately, Gawain wasn't in the mood to look at her at the moment; he was taking a nap with his eyes closed.

Immediately afterwards, Stussy, who had asked Hiyori to reveal the planned publicity scheme, moved the camera elsewhere.

After Stussy left, Hiyori let out a soft sigh of relief, then looked towards Gawain in the distance.

That ruthless strongman didn't leave himself much; he wasn't even willing to provide more than five percent of the economic and material support for the reconstruction of Wano Country.

When it came to Wano Country, Gawain's attention was only focused on Kaido's daughter, and the mineral deposits of Wano Country HK City.

Aside from not directly exercising cruel rule, he, like all others who had conquered Wano Country, didn't care about the country at all!

No!

She had barely thought that when she quickly shook her head.

No!

She quickly tried to reassure herself.

The Wano Country should rely on themselves for salvation. Your actions are not wrong at all. Even if you are wrong, you are definitely not wrong. The only one who is wrong is me.

After all, the master had already forgiven him for his crime of launching a surprise attack on Kurozumi Orochi and ultimately killing him, and had also handed over a certain degree of control over Wano Country to him.

As for whether she can take good care of the country as a woman.

Whether you succeed or fail, it's all your own responsibility!

Thinking this, Hiyori let out a soft sigh. She was no longer the little kid who played hide-and-seek with Momonosuke.

By a twist of fate, this girl, who had never been guided or educated by her parents in the direction of becoming a lord, unexpectedly acquired the status of a daimyo and shouldered unprecedented burdens and responsibilities...

But then again, those few days were really dangerous.

Just after he persuaded Ashura to suppress Denjiro 'Ashura opinion and forcefully launch a full-scale assassination attempt against Kurozumi Orochi.

They and their companions, having launched a surprise attack all the way to Kurozumi Orochi, discovered that Kurozumi Orochi was also prepared to kill them!

Honestly, Hiyori saw the arrangements Kurozumi Orochi made to kill her, she was filled with fear. She felt like she was on the verge of death, and what saved her was her own decisiveness and Ashura's help!

As for Denjiro...

Unfortunately, after that day, Uncle Denjiro began to meditate behind closed doors.

Sigh, I didn't blame him at all.

Moreover, Wano Country truly needs the strength of everyone right now!

Uncle Denjiro... he seems to be going further and further astray!

Whether it's his self-deprecation or his expectations for the so-called future, this uncle is being far too casual...

Hopefully, after isolating himself at home, he'll be able to think carefully about the future of Wano Country!

Hiyori sadly raised her head. The dramatic changes in Wano Country had unknowingly altered her relationship with her uncles in so many ways...

Yes, not only Uncle Denjiro, but also Uncle Yasuie.

He used to hold himself as a child; back then, he adored his niece.

But now, when he learns that he will sit above him as a general...

He quickly showed his displeasure and led his remaining warriors back to his ruins...

So, can't women really be their leaders?

Am I not good enough, or do they not want to?!

For a moment, Hiyori herself didn't notice that her normally elegant and gentle eyes had acquired a hint of murderous intent that she herself was unaware of!

As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will surely kill himself!"

The present Hiyori is truly different from the past!

Her experiences over the past few days have made her truly realize her difficulties.

As a woman, the pressure of breaking the rules and becoming a queen in a country that had been closed off from the world for eight hundred years far exceeded her imagination!

In particular, she didn't even have time to gradually influence and take control of the country!

So much so that now, her only dream is of two new people.

One is her Ashura, who has always been protecting her, and the other is Kawamatsu.

Apart from these two, any of the samurai around her could betray her, because almost no samurai would want to be ridden on by a woman!

Thinking of this, Hiyori looked at Gawain from afar.

At this moment, Gawain was standing at the very front of the observation deck opposite the Execution Platform, silently watching the Execution Platform, which was still empty for the time being.

Gazing at Gawain's figure in the distance, Hiyori gently bit her lip.

Aside from Ashura and Kawamatsu, the only people he could trust were the Dark Bird Ship!

It's ridiculous. Wano Country has just experienced such a tragedy, yet the samurai are still obsessed with fighting for power and profit. On the contrary, outsiders like the Dark Bird Ship seem to be able to see themselves from a more fair perspective than the samurai of Wano Country.

Therefore, if you want to stay in your current position, you need to...

In addition to trying to provide a relatively stable life for the people.

I must do my best to get to that man!

Ah, Gawain.

Over the next five years, you will be the only hero who has helped Wano Country the most!

After all, no matter how much help the remaining people give me.

Who could compare to you, who defeated Kaido?!

Leaving aside Hiyori's inner thoughts, Stussy had already arrived at the front of the observation deck with his Den Den Mushi.

Unlike the places we visited before, the soldiers and officers near the observation deck displayed Superman of discipline!

Just like the German-style Military Uniform they wore, their posture, whether standing or sitting, was also full of solemnity and discipline!

Following the Den Den Mushi's gaze, the Shichibukai were lined up in a row, even Mihawk wasn't staying in his castle.

The death of someone like Kaido is enough to make him temporarily step out of his room!

Kuma, Rayleigh, Shirahoshi, Empress.

The Den Den Mushi lingered briefly on each of the officers until it finally stopped in front of Gawain.

Once Gawain was the only person on the live stream screen, Stussy excitedly addressed the viewers while holding Den Den Mushi.

"Aha, as you can see, this wise and mighty man is none other than our leader, Gawain Dark Bird Ship."

At this point, Stussy tensed up and then bowed to Gawain.

Just as Stussy was bowing, Kaya leaned close to Gawain's ear and whispered something.

"My lord, it's time."

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Gawain nodded slightly, then raised his right hand.

Facing the sun that was about to rise directly overhead, he waved his hand gently and then spoke in a low voice.

"We fought a tough battle."

We witnessed the ocean's most powerful force.

Today, we can finally embrace victory.

And with the blood of the wicked and the enemy, we offer sacrifices to the heroic souls who have just been separated from us by death!

At this moment, Gawain's right hand suddenly fell, his finger pointing directly towards the Execution Platform.

Then, in front of everyone in the world, he gave the order without any emotion.

"Start!"

The moment Gawain finished speaking, the crowd in front of the television instantly became restless.

"The execution has begun!!!"

"Bring Kaido!"

"That's Kaido of the Beasts!"

"Even Four Emperors is going to die? He wasn't even defeated by the Navy!"

"Times have changed!"

"The world has changed!!!"

The people watching on television have no influence on the people at the execution ground.

Finally, the heavy clatter of shackles began to ring out, and Kaido's enormous figure followed the guards as he walked out of the detention area.
