you?
Bai Yu paused for a moment, then smiled and took the bottle from Kozuki Hiyori's Vice Admiral, took a sip, and said...
"Is it worth it? Giving yourself up to me, just to find that Bai Yu, isn't that a huge sacrifice?"
"What if that Navy guy Bai Yu, is a freak, ugly as Masira, and they still want you to show yourself? Would you still offer yourself up?"
"If you don't want me, then I will!" Kozuki Hiyori clenched her fist tightly and said, "As long as Wano Country opens its borders, I'll do anything!"
"You might find what I'm saying dismissive, but if you were in my shoes, you'd understand I had no other choice..."
Bai Yu fell silent, looking at the tender, smooth hand, now pierced Kozuki Hiyori bleeding from the tightly gripped fingertips, and let out a soft sigh.
Indeed, no matter what world you live in, there are always many helpless situations in every place.
Bai Yu doesn't consider himself a saint.
However, it is remarkable that a woman could bear this burden for twenty years and go to such lengths.
This is no longer acting on impulse.
It was with a death wish, wasn't it?
"Alright, let's not talk about these heavy topics anymore."
Bai Yu reached out and ruffled Kozuki Hiyori's hair, saying...
"I see death in your eyes. If the time truly comes to sacrifice yourself, you'll probably choose death."
"But don't worry, the wicked will be punished by the wicked, their winter will come soon."
"You've arrived at your destination too. It looks like someone's waiting for you. I'll head over first!"
Bai Yu slowed down the Lion Beast's speed slightly.
The next moment, his figure flickered and vanished from the spot.
Feeling the sudden loss of support and warmth behind me.
Kozuki Hiyori was startled at first, clearly unable to steady herself.
Just as he was about to fall off the Lion Beast's back, a familiar face steadied him.
" Komurasaki, you're too reckless, riding your Lion Beast all by yourself here. I heard you had an accident in the capital, and I was worried about you."
Denjiro into Kyoshiro, said with a smile.
However, a hint of worry was clearly noticeable in his words.
"No... I'm sorry, someone brought me here, but he's already left."
Kozuki Hiyori stammered.
Recalling the conversations along the way, she still felt like she was in a fog.
As if possessed, I blurted out so many things from my heart.
After all, she had kept these words to herself for twenty years, and even Denjiro hadn't dared to say them to her face.
But she poured out everything to a complete stranger.
If she hadn't experienced it herself, Kozuki Hiyori would never have believed it.
"Was someone there just now?"
Denjiro paused for a moment, looked around, and then said.
"Why didn't I notice what he just said to you?"
After transforming into Kyoshiro, Denjiro became the strongest samurai under Orochi's command in Wano Country.
Even he hadn't noticed the presence of outsiders, which was undoubtedly beyond his expectations.
"He seems to be from overseas. He just said he was coming to kill Kaido and Orochi, but he's alone. He was probably joking."
Kozuki Hiyori snapped out of her daze and shook her head dejectedly.
"It's getting late, let's hurry inside, it wouldn't be good if the giant Orochi got angry again."
As the most beautiful courtesan in Wano Country, she has always had an unwritten rule: before a certain age, she sells her art but not her body.
Orochi, the shogun of Wano Country, has always coveted Kozuki Hiyori's body.
However, this excuse has always been used to gloss over the issue.
Unfortunately, as time went on and the frequency increased, this excuse became clearly insufficient.
In particular, when Orochi was angry, if Denjiro hadn't covered for her repeatedly, Kozuki Hiyori would have already been on Orochi's bed.
Facing this despicable enemy, Kozuki Hiyori had already resigned herself to death.
However, Kozuki Hiyori absolutely refused to believe that she would die like this.
"Kill Kaido and Orochi?"
Denjiro paused for a moment, then quickly shook his head slightly.
"These outsiders must be pirates."
"I've heard that the pirates outside love nothing more than killing and challenging each other."
"However, they underestimated the strength of the Orochi - Kaido alliance; they are a behemoth."
"Overthrowing them and Wano Country to the world is too much of a burden."
A hint of hesitation flashed Denjiro's face, but he quickly mustered his spirits and said.
"Alright, this isn't the place to talk about this. Something's been off between us today; if anyone else hears us, we're both doomed."
"However, I've made a decision. Waiting like this isn't a solution. The Orochi is becoming increasingly aggressive towards you. I plan to find a time to take you out to sea."
"On this vast ocean, only the Navy, and Marine Admiral Bai Yu, who is rumored to have fought Kaido times, might be able to save Wano Country."
"If possible, I'd like to ask him to help, no matter the cost."
Kozuki Hiyori's expression froze for a moment, and she finally fell silent.
" Kyoshiro, Komurasaki, why are you still here? Shogun Orochi is throwing a tantrum. If we don't go over soon, we can't guarantee what might happen."
Wearing a purple kimono, Fukurokuju, whose head was as thin as a bamboo pole, strode out.
Kozuki Hiyori and Denjiro's expressions changed, and they quickly gathered their thoughts and strode into the castle.
They knew the Orochi's temperament very well.
Especially during this period, the Beasts Pirates suffered repeated setbacks, and after Kaido returned time and time again, he directly vented his anger on Orochi.
They're just using him as a punching bag.
Within the Flower Capital, Orochi is indeed a shogun.
But when facing Kaido, he instantly became a coward.
This meant that after he was upset on one side, he could only vent his anger on other people on the other.
As Kozuki Hiyori and Denjiro approached the hall, they heard a series of painful wails.
Seeing the songstress lying haphazardly inside, covered in blood from being whipped, Kozuki Hiyori's expression changed instantly.
" Komurasaki, you've finally arrived? These damn bastards, seeing you weren't there, all said they'd dance in your place."
"A bunch of vulgar women dare to say such things? They think too highly of themselves! That's why I gave them a good beating, so they would understand exactly where they went wrong. In my heart, Komurasaki, you are forever my goddess!"
The Orochi let out a burp, and even its steps became unsteady.
Stumbling Kozuki Hiyori.
Seeing this, Denjiro's expression changed, and he quickly stepped forward to block Kozuki Hiyori's path.
He knew perfectly well that if the Orochi got close...
This guy will definitely use alcohol as an excuse to commit violence.
They probably won't easily let go of the good opportunity to execute Kozuki Hiyori on the spot.
"Yes, it's Komurasaki... No, Kyoshiro, what are you doing? Get out of the way! I have some good news for Komurasaki. Today is a great day for the Four Emperors Alliance! That Marine Admiral Bai Yu will be killed today, and Kaido will never take his temper out on me again!"
The Orochi glared at him and quickly pushed Denjiro.
