Yamato's Advance

At this moment, Yamato had already rushed to the Shogun's Residence, and the guards of the Shogun's Residence fell one by one under her iron rod.

This finally alerted the people at the Shogun's Residence.

A very large and sturdy figure, dressed in a yellow kimono with shuriken patterns, stood in front of her.

He is Hanzo, and like the Daikoku who was killed by Moke before, he is a member of the Orochi's Oniwabanshu.

However, he was a ninja.

However, Yamato doesn't care who you are. Today, she's here to reclaim Wano Country for the Kozuki Family, and everyone in the Shogun's Palace is an enemy.

Therefore, no matter who it is, anyone who stands in her way will be defeated. Until she takes down Kurozumi Orochi, the current shogun of Wano Country.

"Call..."

Yamato swung the iron bar in his hand without hesitation.

Hanzo shocked, but he was, after all, a member of the Orochi's Oniwabanshu. So, he did have some strength, and thus, he was able to withstand Yamato's casual attack.

It's still hard to avoid.

He then pulled a ball from his pocket and smashed it on the ground.

"Boom..."

After an explosion, a large cloud of smoke immediately appeared. Yamato's iron rod slammed directly into Hanzo's original spot, dispersing the smoke.

A large crater was smashed into the ground, but Hanzo's figure had already disappeared.

Before anyone knew it, Hanzo had already appeared behind Yamato.

Yamato narrowed her eyes; her Observation Haki had already detected it. She raised her iron rod and delivered a backhand strike...

"Bang!"

This time, Hanzo didn't dodge either and was hit squarely. The powerful force sent Hanzo flying.

"Pfft..."

Hanzo spat out a mouthful of blood and crashed to the ground a hundred meters away. His fate was unknown...

Yamato raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "Are all Orochi's subordinates this kind of trash?"

To be honest, it was quite unexpected. Because their skills were just too poor.

This is either Orochi's bad luck, or it's for the sake of the plot. Over the years, Kurozumi Orochi's strategists and powerful subordinates have died one by one, leaving him without anyone to command...

Kurozumi Higurashi: Kurozumi Orochi's strategist and the mastermind behind Wano Country's many troubles.

To revive the Kurozumi Family and defeat the Kozuki Family, they plotted a scheme.

41 years ago, Kurozumi Higurashi found Kurozumi Orochi, instilled hatred in him, encouraged him to seek Kurozumi Orochi, and taught him how to conquer Wano Country step by step. She also gave Kurozumi Orochi Orochi Devil Fruit.

28 years ago, Kurozumi Higurashi and Kurozumi Orochi secretly imprisoned Kozuki Sukiyaki and transformed into Kozuki Sukiyaki's appearance to make Kurozumi Orochi the Shogun of Wano Country.

Afterwards, she approached Kaido and proposed a collaboration with Kurozumi Orochi.

Twenty years ago, Kurozumi Higurashi intervened in the war between Kozuki Oden and Kaido. When Kozuki Oden was pursuing Kaido, she used her Imitation Fruit ability to transform into Kozuki Momonosuke as a hostage, leading to Kozuki Oden's defeat. Although Kurozumi Higurashi helped Kaido a lot, she was killed by Kaido because she interfered with the battle between Kaido and Oden.

Kurozumi Kanjuro: A member of the Kurozumi Family, Paramecia Pen-Pen Devil Fruit User infiltrating the Nine Red Scabbards. He possesses exceptional drawing skills, but in daily life, he uses his relatively inflexible left hand to conceal his true drawing abilities.

His ability to be included among the Nine Swordsmen speaks volumes about his strength, but he was ultimately killed by Kin'emon.

Kurozumi Semimaru: A member of the Kurozumi Family, residing overseas, and a former Devil Fruit User. He is Orochi's strongest protector; with him around... no one can kill Orochi.

Unfortunately, of those three, Kurozumi Higurashi and Kurozumi Semimaru are already dead, and Kurozumi Kanjuro is also out searching for Momonosuke, so Orochi currently has no one of his own who is truly capable.

No, there is one... that is Kyoshiro, also known as Denjiro. Unfortunately, he is one of the Nine Heavens...

So, this is fate!

He was destined to die!

This was Kurozumi Orochi's destined fate.

By this time, the people in the Shogun's Palace had already realized what was happening.

A tall, bald man, leading a group of people, blocked Yamato's path.

Yamato glanced at the crowd, his eyebrows twitching involuntarily. The newcomer was bald, with long earlobes and skull, a long, pointed black beard, square sunglasses, and a purple kimono and orange robe embroidered with the character for ninja and shuriken patterns.

He was clearly a ninja as well.

Behind him followed six people, men and women, each with their own distinct characteristics. However, Yamato sensed no danger from any of them.

The leader is naturally Fukurokuju).

Following behind him were Wind Shadow, Wind Blade, Thunder Blade, Bishamon, Jigoku Benten, Chiyome. They were all Orochi's Oniwabanshu.

They are considered Orochi's direct subordinates, and are currently Orochi's strongest subordinates.

Actually, these guys were originally the Oniwabanshu of the Kozuki Family, which could be considered their personal guards. However, when Orochi usurped the throne, they chose to collectively defect to Orochi.

This is also why Shinobu left the Oniwabanshu.

Moke had also told Yamato about them, so Yamato hated these people to the core!

When they start, they show absolutely no mercy.

"Divine Speed - White Serpent Exorcism!"

Yamato accelerated instantly, rapidly attacking his opponent with his spiked club. What is Yamato's strength?

She was at least a Sweet Commander Level expert on Big Mom's ship, while these people in front of him were just trash. How could they possibly be her match...?

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The sounds of heavy blows rang out continuously, and with each blow, someone was sent flying. It's important to understand that there was a significant difference in strength between the two sides to begin with.

Moreover, Yamato was in a state of rage and extreme excitement at that moment.

No one could withstand a single blow from her terrifying power.

Who exactly are you?

At this moment, Kurozumi Orochi stepped out from the side. He saw how utterly vulnerable the Oniwabanshu were in the hands of the enemy.

His face looked extremely pale.

This guy looks really funny.

He was tall and imposing, but extremely disproportionate.

Its head and mouth are very large, making its whole body appear quite short... However, in Wano Country, it is a "hero"-like figure.

He is also a user of the Snake-Snake Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Yamata no Orochi Form. The user can transform into Yamata no Orochi, and each head has its own consciousness.

It has eight green heads, with the middle head being a darker color and resembling Kurozumi Orochi. The other seven heads are similar to dragons.

In this form, Kurozumi Orochi can attack enemies from various angles at different speeds and ranges.

Each head represents a life; with each head cut off, the snake loses one head after transformation. When all the heads are cut off, the Orochi dies.

It has to be said that this ability, just by having eight extra lives, is practically heaven-defying... It's a pity it fell into the hands of this good-for-nothing.

Otherwise, it would absolutely make the whole world tremble.
