Holy Land, Flower Chamber.
Imu stood in front of the study window, staring at the box placed on the desk with a pair of dark red eyes, an imperceptible unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
Imu, who always regarded himself as a god, was really hit. The Conqueror's Haki sealed on the surface of the box had been broken by three unlucky guys Five Elders. However, when Gunko opened the red cloth wrapping the box, what came into view was a completely sealed transparent box without a lid.
There are energy bodies Devil Fruit sealed in the box, layer upon layer, making it impossible to see how much energy Devil Fruit is sealed in it.
Gunko stood by the desk dejectedly. He hesitated for a while before summoning the courage to speak, "Lord Im, my subordinate is incompetent and there is really no way to open it!"
"We were tricked by Akira~"
Imu nodded, almost squeezing out these words through his teeth, and his fists under his long robe were clenched even more unconsciously.
Previously, when I saw Akira injecting Conqueror's Haki into the box to seal it, it gave everyone present the illusion that the box could be opened.
However, after several days of research and various attempts, Imu and Gunko gradually discovered that something was wrong.
Because the structure of this box is far from human-made, the only one in the world who can open it is Akira.
It is precisely because of this that Akira can safely place the box containing so many Devil Fruit energy bodies in Flower Chamber.
When Akira deposited the box with Flower Chamber, Imu naively thought that Akira was doing it out of trust, and Imu was secretly happy about it. However, he did not expect that Akira's move was not trust, but absolute confidence in the security of the box.
After a short silence, Imu suddenly looked up at Gunko and said in a deep voice, "You are going to Wano Country now. I want to ask him face to face how to open this box! I gave him the keys to the vault, but he actually played this kind of game with me. Mu is very angry!"
Wano Country, Flower Capital.
"Hahaha, I'm finally free!"
A burst of laughter suddenly sounded from the prison.
Immediately afterwards, Yamato ran out of the prison door happily. Regardless of whether there was anyone outside the door, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Lord Marshal... huh?"
Before he finished speaking, Yamato, who had just rushed out of the prison door, couldn't help being stunned.
Because it was quiet outside the prison door, there was no figure of Akira, and there was no red umbrella of the evil little loli dangling in front of his eyes, there was only a burly naval colonel Morgan.
After looking around, Yamato blinked blankly at first, then looked at Morgan opposite, and asked, "Where is Lord Marshal? He let me go, why didn't he pick me up?"
"Who do you think you are? You still want Lord Marshal to pick you up?"
Morgan threw a brand new set of clothes in his arms to Yamato, "Lord Marshal asked me to bring it to you if you have something to say. During this period, you can move freely in Wano Country, but you cannot leave Wano Country!"
"Really?"
Yamato's eyes lit up. This was what she wanted to do most after leaving the prison, because she had heard a lot about Wano Country from the naval soldiers who were responsible for guarding her in the prison. Now that she was free, she naturally wanted to see with her own eyes to see if Wano Country had really undergone earth-shaking changes.
Morgan glared and said angrily, "Lord Marshal is true to his word, how could he joke with a fool like you!"
"Are you going to follow me?" Yamato blinked.
"Of course!" Morgan said reluctantly, "But it's not my choice, it's Lord Marshal's order!"
"Then let's go!"
Yamato simply put on the coat Morgan threw over and walked out eagerly.
Temporary municipal office building.
The members of the temporary municipal team who were coming in and out were also very busy.
There was even more excitement in front of the gate, because the temporary municipal government needed a large number of local staff. After two days of adaptation, the people of Flower Capital realized that the municipal building established to replace General's Mansion was indeed serving the people, and they all plucked up the courage to come for interviews and apply for jobs.
Many people who succeeded in the interview were so excited that they cried on the spot because of the sudden happiness. People who did not succeed in the interview were not discouraged, because now Wano Country is full of waste and needs a huge number of staff.
While there is an endless stream of applicants for interviews in front of the municipal building in Flower Capital city, recruitment in various regions of Wano Country is also in full swing.
People who successfully joined the Navy through interviews and background checks and became recruits rushed home immediately to inform their relatives of the great news.
Not only that, they also received one month's salary and various daily necessities.
Kuri, pick up the leakage village.
Almost all the elderly people in the village gathered at the entrance of the village, looking eagerly at the country road opposite.
The young men who passed the interview to become the navy were all equipped with a navy uniform and walked quickly on the country roads with various daily necessities in their arms.
After a while, a group of seven or eight young men arrived at the entrance of Jianlu Village.
A young man who was running at the front ran up to a middle-aged woman with the daily necessities he had received. With a bang, he knelt down on his knees and shouted loudly with sobs, "Mother, my child... has been chosen!"
Before the middle-aged woman could react, the young man quickly put down his daily necessities, took out a brand-new navy uniform that was under personal protection and quickly put it on, then straightened his body and saluted the middle-aged woman with a not-so-standard military salute.
"Mother, we don't have to worry about life in the future!"
The young man who put on the navy uniform and saluted took out a brand new currency from his arms and put it in the hands of the middle-aged woman. He said excitedly, "All the recruits who successfully interviewed received a month's salary! Mother, our life will get better and better in the future!"
"Okay, okay..." the middle-aged woman nodded repeatedly and choked. "Did Kozuki adults succeed in restoring the country? Great, Kozuki adults did not give up on us!"
Hearing that his mother actually mistakenly thought that Kozuki Clan had successfully restored the country, the young man quickly stopped him and said, "Mother, from now on Wano Country will not have General's Mansion, let alone There are Kozuki Clan adults, because no matter who they are, they will be civilians like us in the future. Now it is the navy Lord Marshal that is carrying out a series of reforms for Wano Country!"
"Navy Marshal?"
The middle-aged woman blinked blankly and asked, "This new set of clothes and salary were all given to you by the Navy Lord Marshal?"
"Yes, Mother!"
The young man tidied up his navy uniform, imitated the veterans in the military camp, stood up straight, raised his hands in salute, and shouted in a dignified manner, "Loyalty! Honesty!"
It was a good thing that he didn't shout. When he shouted, several other recruits who were excitedly telling their relatives about the current changes in Wano Country also straightened their bodies and shouted the slogan neatly and loudly.
At the same time.
At the intersection of another country road in Jianlu Village, Kozuki Hiyori stood quietly under two big trees and looked at the figure opposite who raised his hands in salute and shouted slogans from a distance. A smile of relief appeared on his face unconsciously, and he whispered to the waiter beside him, "Let's go, Onigashima!"
"Are you going now?"
The waiter blinked blankly, "Akira Marshal gave Lord Hiyori ten days."
Kozuki Hiyori smiled sweetly, her lips parted lightly and said, "No need, I have already seen Wano Country's future."
