"Hello everyone, welcome to Shimotsuki Village. I'm Koshiro. Thank you for bringing Zoro back yesterday. I also appreciate your letter."

The next morning, Koshiro brought his daughter and Zoro to the dock and found Yamato and others and said.

"Mr. Koshiro, you are too polite. It's nothing."

Yamato said, scratching his head a little embarrassedly.

"No, it's not just because of Zoro. This letter is also very important to me, so I should thank you. By the way, who is Miss Hiyori?"

Koshiro asked.

"I am. I guess you are the son of the sword-making master Kozaburo."

Hiyori stood up and said that she had had some suspicions before, and now that the other party had brought it up, it was most likely that her guess was confirmed, that the person in front of her was Kozaburo's son.

"Yes, I am Koshiro, my father Kozaburo, and I am here to greet His Highness Hiyori."

Koshiro looked at Hiyori who came out and spoke very respectfully. For people from Wano Country, they are accustomed to respecting the people of the Shogun's family, even though Koshiro's family has been away for decades. However, after being away for such a long time, Koshiro has changed a little. At least, although he is respectful, he did not do anything to kneel down, otherwise the scene would probably be very embarrassing.

"Your Highness?"

Zoro and Kuina were both stunned. This girl who looked a few years older than them was a princess? Did she mean a princess? But they looked like pirates.

"There is no such thing as a highness anymore. Wano Country has also changed. I am just Hiyori now. Kozuki Hiyori is already a historical term."

Hiyori waved her hands and said awkwardly that she had guessed this situation would happen and that was why she did not stay there for long. However, she did not expect to be discovered anyway.

"What do you mean? Did something happen in Wano Country?"

Koshiro was stunned for a moment. From the letters to Dragon, he only knew that there was Hiyori from the Kozuki family in this pirate group, and he didn't know what happened in Wano Country. Although becoming a pirate was a bit rebellious, Koshiro's age also destined him to know the eternal shame of Wano Country, Kozuki Oden.

"Wano Country is good, much better than before, or it has never been better. After losing the general, daimyo and samurai, the current Wano Country is a real blessed land."

Hiyori said nonchalantly, the more she understood the current situation, the more her horizons broadened, and the more she realized that the Wano Country in the past was simply garbage among garbage. Even among all the anthropomorphic and non-anthropomorphic countries around the world, Wano Country was one of the least anthropomorphic ones. Moreover, from top to bottom, they were all negative examples of anthropomorphism, the kind that could be included in textbooks. They had made almost all the mistakes. If it weren't for the extreme xenophobia and the fact that force decided everything in this world, they would have been overthrown long ago.

"Overthrown? Well, maybe I've been away for too long. I didn't expect the world to change so quickly. Everyone, please come with me to the kendo hall and sit for a while. Let me also do my part as a good host."

Koshiro was not sure how he felt at the moment. Should he be happy? His family fled because they could not stand the atmosphere of Wano Country, but that was their motherland after all. Should they be sad? However, the persecution of their own people by that country made him want to applaud. In the end, Koshiro, who did not know how to describe his feelings, decided not to think about it. Anyway, he could not do anything now. He might as well ask the other party to come over and sit down. Then he could have a good chat. Maybe he could figure it out? After all, standing here was not a big deal, right?

"go?"

Hiyori looked at the other people. She didn't really want to go. She was afraid that this was another idiot with samurai spirit in his head, who would start talking about some bullshit like the traditions of the Kozuki clan. She wanted to run away quickly. After all, she had heard a lot of such things over the years. Every time she went to see the captured samurai in the past, she wanted to see how they had been reformed. Some of them had indeed been reformed quite well, but most of them still hoped to lead them to fight and become the best again. As a result, the first time she saw blood was in the dead mine. She couldn't help but chop a few outspoken guys alive. She even decided that if her stupid brother didn't repent, she would chop him alive in front of these guys to completely cut off their thoughts, as a way to atone for the Kozuki family's wrongdoings over the years. Anyway, Hiyori is now almost allergic to the word Kozuki.

"Go and take a look. It may not be what you think."

Robin instantly saw what Hiyori was thinking and said.

"That's right, let's go and take a look, it shouldn't be a big deal. At worst we can just leave." Yamato also guessed what Hiyori was thinking. Although she was not as good at observing people's expressions as Robin, she understood Hiyori and knew that Hiyori hated everything about samurai now. However, she saw that Koshiro did not have the eyes of those fanatical guys, so it shouldn't be a big deal. What's more, if they really wanted to leave, she believed that Koshiro could not stop them.

"You guys go ahead. I won't go. I'm going to go find Shanks and the others."

Jack said to Yamato and the others, Maria and Shirley had the same idea. The three of them did not plan to go over, and they were all ready to find Shanks and the others, while Ginny and Kuma were ready to keep an eye on it, just in case. Although Koshiro was Dragon's friend, personal friends and friends of the Revolutionary Army were two different concepts.

"Thank you all for visiting my humble abode. Don't worry, I just want to ask some questions. I don't have any bad intentions. Similarly, if there is anything wrong with these questions, you don't have to answer them."

Koshiro noticed that Hiyori seemed to be worried about something, and thinking about the looks of those samurai before he followed his father away, he could roughly guess that they were probably afraid of that evil fanaticism.

"Okay, but let me make it clear first, if your question makes Hiyori unhappy, we will definitely leave immediately."

Yamato looked at Koushiro and said.

"No problem, it's settled."

Koshiro smiled and nodded. In fact, he knew at the moment they met that he had no ability to stop these people in front of him. Even Hiyori herself could not stop them, because the powerful aura emanating from Hiyori had completely surpassed her. Looking at the long sword behind Hiyori, he was more convinced that women can really become strong.

In this way, several people returned to the kendo gym. On the way, Zoro got separated from the team many times, but was pulled back by the experienced Kuina. Yamato and others were speechless when they saw this. They wondered what kind of person they had found to lead the way yesterday.

"Um, Mr. Koshiro, is Zoro's grandmother or great-grandmother Lady Shimotsuki?"

Hiyori quietly approached Koshiro and asked.

"I have some suspicions, but I'm not sure about the details. However, judging from her age, it's probably true."

Koshiro answered in a low voice. After all, the face was so similar, to the point of being similar in both appearance and spirit.

"Does Zoro know it himself?"

Hiyori asked again.

"I asked him, but he didn't know. He is half an orphan."

Koshiro shook his head. It was difficult to say about Zoro's situation. No one could tell what was going on. Maybe he was just a different person who looked alike, or maybe he was really a descendant of the Shimotsuki family. No one could tell.

"Well, Uncle Niu Wan has been troubled by his sister's affairs these years. He has been trying to find Madam Shimotsuki to apologize, but he has no clues. How about this, can you give me some of Zoro's blood so that I can take it back for comparison?"

Hiyori thought about it and felt that Shimotsuki Ushimaru still took good care of himself and Yamato, so she decided to help.

"Okay, I'll think of a way."

Koshiro nodded. If the other party wanted to take Zoro away, it would definitely not be possible, but if it was just a little blood, it would be no problem.
