Twenty minutes later.
The Flower Capital, the General's Mansion.
The Kurozumi Orochi fled in a sorry state.
He was terrified when he learned that the Demon King Ye Zhuo had appeared in the Flower Capital.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zhuo simply started strolling around the streets.
After tasting the sake from Wano Country, he also tried the authentic oden (Japanese stew).
"Cherry blossoms?"
Wano Country is indeed beautiful, but Ye Zhuo doesn't need to take action to defeat Kurozumi Orochi.
His crew got a good chance to hone their skills.
At this time, the Empress, Momousagi, Betty, Smoothie are conquering the other four regions.
Tashigi cleaved a samurai, Kurozumi Orochi strike.
"These remnants have actually poisoned Wano Country for so many years!"
Hina was already used to it.
"Wano Country isn't part of the Reverie, so this is just like most kingdoms."
Ain turned a Ninja Shadowkhan into a baby.
Bonney went a step further, turning all the other Ninja Shadowkhan into babies.
The two have similar abilities, but Bonney can also make people age.
It can be considered a superior version of the Return-Return Fruit.
"Everyone, I'm Shinobu! I've come here specifically to help you!"
Shinobu saw the beautiful women from the Demon King Pirates in front of him.
It inevitably brings to mind my younger self.
Back then, she was the most beautiful woman among the Ninja Shadowkhan!
"Found it!"
Violet quickly pinpointed Kurozumi Orochi's location.
"I found a woman who doesn't know swordsmanship. She begged us to spare a samurai named Kyoshiro."
Rebecca deactivated her invisibility; it turned out she was the one who captured Hiyori.
Hiyori fell to the ground, looking up at Ye Zhuo with a pitiful expression.
The situation became somewhat awkward at one point.
"Take this ugly Ninja Shadowkhan to deal with Kurozumi Orochi."
"Leave this green-haired dancer to me."
Ye Zhuo really didn't want to look at Shinobu any longer.
She was a good Ninja Shadowkhan who endured humiliation and hardship.
But Ye Zhuo misery, especially tragedies like Shinobu's.
This is really ruining my mood!
She's practically comparable to that mermaid grandma from Enies Lobby, and a slightly different-looking Big Mom.
"Demon King.
My daughter's name is Komurasaki.
In reality, he is a descendant of the Kozuki Family.
Hiyori knew what Ye Zhuo was about to do; Kurozumi Orochi was doomed.
"Your name doesn't matter, just eat this Snow-Snow Fruit."
From now on, you will be my winemaker.
Wine made with pure snow water should be quite good.
A Snow-Snow Fruit, a reward from a mission Ye Zhuo completed a long time ago.
Hiyori ate it without a second thought.
Revenge is something she must do in this life.
"Ugh~"
Hiyori didn't expect Devil Fruit to taste so bad.
"Come on, winemaker."
Ye Zhuo's tall stature gave off an invisible sense of oppression.
The moment he stepped into the government office.
Those warriors who were still trying to resist knelt down.
As I approached the Kurozumi Orochi, I heard him cursing loudly.
"Kyoshiro, you damned bastard, you're a traitor!"
"No, I am Denjiro, actually..."
Denjiro was about to explain the whole story.
"Shut up, snow leopard!"
What kind of time is this to still be reminiscing about the plot?
Will he die if you kill him with one blow?
Ye Zhuo didn't want to waste any more time.
Just as he opened his mouth, the Kurozumi Orochi had already conjured eight heads.
"Damn it."
You've turned this Mythical Zoan beast into something truly amazing.
What a waste of resources!
Ye Zhuo his hand, and his dozen or so crew members immediately launched their attacks.
"I haven't finished reminiscing yet."
Denjiro stood there, stunned.
He also wanted to reveal all the humiliation and hardship he had endured over the past decades.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zhuo had no intention of letting the Kurozumi Orochi die clearly and without explanation.
"It's been raised."
I've said it so many times.
If you encounter someone like that, grind them to dust!
Ye Zhuo had no intention of turning Kurozumi Orochi into a real Yamata no Orochi.
Legend has it that the saliva this thing spits out contains poisonous gas and acid.
Not cute at all.
His Fire Chi transformed into a giant fireball, which quickly reduced the Kurozumi Orochi to ashes.
"Damn it, Kaido will make sure you die a horrible death!"
Even while engulfed in flames, Kurozumi Orochi uttered a few villainous lines.
"Your Excellency is...?"
Denjiro wanted to say something more.
Ye Zhuo immediately interrupted his pleasantries.
"What 'Your Excellency'? From now on, I am the Demon King of Wano Country!"
"Clear."
Denjiro was ashamed; he hadn't expected Ye Zhuo to be even Kaido.
I don't like this kind of flattery at all.
Ye Zhuo, however, came to Wano Country to treat it as his backyard.
Each area here can have different weather on the same day.
The cherry blossoms are also nice; it would be great to come here occasionally for a drink.
At that time, these people will also be responsible for some basic tasks and guard duties.
Ye Zhuo will have Sea Kings and Mechanical Sea Beasts surround this place.
The Shadowkhan and cyborgs manage the Wano Country.
"Is everyone here?"
We left the General's Mansion.
The Empress and others have all gathered.
"Where are Nekomamushi and Inuarashi?"
Ye Zhuo remembered that he had told them that once the war started, the Mink Tribe would have to come and fight.
"I spoke to them through Den Den Mushi this morning; they seem to be arriving soon."
Kalifa quickly replied.
"Um."
Ye Zhuo knew it before he even finished speaking.
Because he had heard the voice of Zunesha in his mind.
"Owner.
I have arrived in the waters of Wano Country.
The Mink Tribe have landed.
Zunesha has already positioned itself outside the seas of Wano Country.
"It's good that you're here. From now on, you can live in that inland sea area of Onigashima."
Ye Zhuo's people have taken control of Wano Country.
However, there are some people who do not belong to Kurozumi Orochi.
Hyogoro, who escaped from Udon, Kawamatsu, became Ashura Doji Yasuie, a chivalrous thief.
Everyone felt extremely pleased.
They felt like they were dreaming when they saw the Kurozumi Orochi burned to ashes.
"Demon King!"
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi finally arrived as promised.
The first thing they did upon arriving here was not to reminisce, but to kneel down on one knee.
Upon seeing this, Denjiro and the others' expressions changed.
They never expected that Nekomamushi and Inuarashi, who had followed Kozuki Oden on his voyages for many years, would be the first to betray them!
"Follow me, and we will storm Onigashima."
Ye Zhuo ignored their petty schemes.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble can be slapped to death.
If you have absolute strength, why bother trying to guess people's hearts?
"Yes, sir!"
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi simply thought Denjiro and the others were ignorant.
The battle between Demon King Ye Zhuo and Kaido on the high seas has been widely publicized.
The two candidates are almost evenly split in terms of supporters.
Ye Zhuo's rise was too rapid, but his record was too strong.
Kaido hand, has been the Emperor of the Sea for many years, and can be said to have built his power steadily and surely.
Having successfully taken control of Wano Country, Ye Zhuo headed towards the port.
The ships were already ready.
At this moment, there is only one Yamato Onigashima.
Ye Zhuo picked up the Den Den Mushi.
"Have you found Kaido?"
"The call has been connected. This is Kurozumi Orochi Den Den Mushi."
Kalifa nodded in affirmation.
Glug glug glug.
The person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi was also taken aback.
"Kurozumi Orochi, you know Laozi going on a campaign today, yet you dare to bother me!"
Kaido's Beasts Pirates are heading towards Hive Island in a grand procession.
His relationship with Ye Zhuo was truly a two-way street.
"Kurozumi Orochi is dead!"
You chose him, Kaido!
Laozi right here in your house!
Ye Zhuo's words enraged Kaido.
