On the deck of the Kuri warship docked, a naval officer held a telescope and looked at the factory chimneys rising from the ground and billowing thick smoke in the distance, as well as the dilapidated and desolate scenery. He opened his eyes unexpectedly and said in surprise, "Is this the Wano Country that is closed to the country? I thought it was a rich place, but I didn't expect it to be so desolate!"
"It's really beyond imagination!"
"How can a country that is closed to the outside world and controlled by Beasts Pirates behind the scenes get better?"
"It's just a pain for the civilians of this country. Living in a country controlled by pirates, they can't get out, and news from the outside can't come in. It's really frustrating every day!"
"But they are lucky, because Wano Country ushered in their sun, hahaha~"
"Hey, eh, where is Lord Marshal?"
Because it was the first time to step into the Wano Country, the soldiers on the warship only looked around and forgot to follow their Lord Marshal footsteps.
Kuri On the beach, Akira was walking in front wearing Marshal's cloak, and Gion followed closely behind with two long knives on his waist.
Seeing this, all the naval officers and soldiers could not stop lamenting the dilapidation and desolation of Wano Country, and jumped off the deck one after another to follow.
Gion was also very surprised by the current situation of Wano Country. Although she knew that Wano Country would definitely be very bad under the control of Beasts Pirates, she did not expect that the actual situation was far worse than she imagined.
"Right Gion."
Suddenly, Akira, who was walking in front, turned his head and glanced at Gion, who was looking around, and asked as if he remembered something, "After Awakening took Conqueror's Haki, have Observation Haki and Armament Haki improved?"
Gion nodded.
Seeing this, Akira narrowed his eyes slightly, "Observation Haki, after your improvement, have you gained any new insights? In other words, have you made any new discoveries?"
Gion thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "There are no new insights or discoveries. If it weren't for Conqueror's Haki Awakening, I think my strength would stop here. Without Devil Fruit's complementary abilities, it would be much more difficult for women to reach a higher level than for men."
"Oh?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Akira's eyes, "This is a bit surprising to me. I didn't expect that my Gion Admiral would say such a thing."
"Also?" Gion blinked, "Has anyone else said such a thing?"
Akira nodded, "East Blue Shimotsuki Village There is a little girl who is extremely talented in swordsmanship and very strong."
Gion's eyes lit up, "East Blue Shimotsuki Village? When this trip to Wano Country is over, I will personally go to Shimotsuki Village and accept this little girl as a disciple!"
Akira shook his head and said softly, "If she is still alive, she should be about seventeen years old now."
"Eh?" Gion was stunned, and then he suddenly realized. "Could it be that when Lord Marshal first became a colonel, he applied for a cruise to East Blue just for this little girl?"
Akira didn't speak, just sighed slightly.
When he first came to this world, all he wanted to do was try to live longer and try not to get involved in right and wrong.
But after he gradually rose to prominence in the headquarters and was promoted to colonel, his thoughts naturally changed, and he even wanted to see if his arrival would change the fate of some people.
The first thing he thought of was East Blue Shimotsuki Village that stronger little girl Kuina.
Because he was puzzled by the death of Kuina. He was an excellent swordsman and had a physical fitness that surpassed Zoro who practiced hard every day. How could he fall to his death just because he went upstairs to get a whetstone?
But he was still a step late.
When he became a colonel and arrived at East Blue Shimotsuki Village, Kuina had been dead for more than a year.
"Lord Marshal!"
At this moment, a naval officer quickly caught up with Akira and said excitedly, "Sakazuki Admiral must have captured all the areas controlled by Beasts Pirates. Let's go directly to the Wano Country capital!"
Hearing this, Akira simply nodded and said, "Let you experience an alternative way of traveling!"
Before he finished speaking, a flash of red light suddenly flashed in Akira's eyes, and Observation Haki, who had been promoted to the full level by the system, was released.
The next second.
Observation Haki spread out at an astonishing speed, covering the entire territory of Wano Country in the blink of an eye.
As Observation Haki covers the entire territory of Wano Country, any movement in Wano Country is captured by Akira. Even the voices of everyone living in Wano Country and the interactions between animals are all monitored by Akira at this moment.
At the same time.
In a desert a few kilometers away from Kuri beach, a huge baboon that was taking a nap suddenly opened its eyes and looked around with a look of horror on its back.
Before the baboon could react, a commanding voice suddenly sounded in its ears, "Baboon, come here!"
Hearing the sudden sound next to his ears, the baboon's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
Immediately afterwards, without thinking too much, it quickly stood up and ran out in the direction of the sound at high speed.
At this moment, a cloud of dust suddenly rose from a sand dune to the right of the huge baboon. Following a slight vibration on the ground, an equally large animal rushed out from the other side of the dune. It was Wano Country's rare animal Komainu.
Seeing Komainu appear, running in the same direction as him, a hint of horror flashed in the baboon's eyes again.
Like the baboon, Komainu's eyes were full of fear, and his running speed was even more alarming, as if he was worried that he would be eaten if he ran too slow.
After a while, the baboon and Komainu crossed the sand dunes and arrived at the beach where Akira and his party were.
"!!!!!"
"What kind of animal is this!"
"Everyone, be careful and prepare to fight!"
Seeing the two strange beasts carrying billows of dust heading straight for the beach, the naval officers and soldiers following Akira widened their eyes, and then quickly raised their guns to aim at them.
"Don't panic!"
Akira smiled and waved his hands to stop the next group of officers and soldiers, then took a step forward to face the behemoths rushing from both ends, and simply said, "Get down!"
Hearing this, the baboon and Komainu stopped suddenly at almost the same time, and then lay down on the opposite side of Akira fearfully.
I didn't expect that Akira could actually control two strange beasts. Even Gion, a well-informed Admiral, couldn't help but open his beautiful eyes, "Lord Marshal, this is--"
Akira did not hide anything, explaining, "After I developed Observation Haki to the extreme, it can not only cover and monitor a country, but also hear the voices of all people, animals, and other living beings, and transmit them to them."
Gion's beautiful eyes widened again, and she said in disbelief, "Voice of All Things!?"
"You can understand it that way."
Akira smiled slightly and immediately jumped on Komainu's back, "Come on, let's go Flower Capital."
