Chapter 465 Departure from Wano Country

Wano Country, the sea area outside Oni Island.

Thick fog shrouded this closed country surrounded by high walls, and the waves crashed against the steep cliffs with a dull roar.

In the distance, a massive waterfall cascades down like an insurmountable chasm, its swift currents keeping any boats that attempt to approach out of reach.

However, today a strangely shaped ship, ignoring the natural barrier of Wano Country, slowly sailed into this sea area.

Ghost Carrot!
The ship's hull was wreathed in eerie blue decorative lights, its prow resembled a giant, grinning carrot, and its sails were embroidered with the symbol of the Fifth Emperor Pirates—a skull holding a carrot in its mouth.
Nami sat under a parasol on the deck, a huge map of Wano Country spread out in front of her, her brows slightly furrowed.

She bit the pen, occasionally circling key locations on the map with the pen tip.

"The terrain here is too complicated," she muttered, reaching into the basket beside her to pick up an orange, peeling it, breaking off a segment and popping it into her mouth.

"Miss Nami~ Do you need any help?" Brook, carrying a cup of red tea, gracefully moved over. Although it had no eyes, its empty eye sockets seemed to gleam with expectation.

"Brook, can you please stop talking like that 'I may not have eyes, but I'm gazing at you with deep affection' tone every time?" Nami rolled her eyes, but still handed him a segment of orange. "Here, have a taste, it's freshly picked."

"Yo ho ho ho! Thanks for the treat!" Brooke took the orange, pretended to put it in his mouth, and then savored it with relish. "Ah~ it's so sweet and sour! Even though I have no sense of taste!"

Nami: "."

Carrot, perched on the ship's railing, her fluffy rabbit ears pricked up, excitedly pointed to the huge island in the distance: "Perona! There seem to be wild berries over there! Let's go pick some!"

Perona floated in mid-air, hugging her Kumasi doll, and lazily yawned: "I don't want to, you boring guy."

“But adventures are so much fun!” Carrot’s eyes lit up. “We might even run into some cute animals!”

"That's even more boring."

As the Ghost Carrot sailed into an area of ​​waters filled with reefs, everyone lay on the deck and began clearing mines.

"This is Wano Country?" Fang Yu stood at the bow of the ship, his Mangekyou Sharingan piercing through the thick fog as he gazed at the towering city walls in the distance. "Isolating itself from the world has only made it a frog in a well."

Suddenly, the sea surface trembled violently!
"Rumble--"

A massive mammoth warship broke through the thick fog, its prow adorned with a ferocious mammoth statue. The ship was covered in heavy armor, and its deck was filled with elite pirates from the Beasts Pirates.

"It's Jack the Drought!" Nico Robin exclaimed.

"Roar!"

With a deafening roar, Drought Jack's massive body emerged from the ship's cabin. He had mammoth tusks on his head, his muscles were bulging, and his eyes were fierce as he stared at the Ghost Carrot.

"The Fifth Emperor?!" Jack grinned maliciously, revealing his gleaming white teeth. "A mere small boat dares to approach Wano Country?!"

He suddenly waved his hand and roared, "Men! Move the boat closer! Ram them!"

"Yes, Lord Jack!"

The helmsman of the mammoth warship grinned as he turned the rudder, and the massive warship changed direction. The mammoth statue on the bow was aimed at the Ghost Carrot, charging straight at it like a raging beast!

"Heh," Fang Yu sneered, "Classics never go out of style. What a fine line, 'Let the boat dock.'"

He slowly raised his right hand, golden Buddhist light emanating from his palm, and chakra surged wildly within his body.

Fang Yu's voice was cold and mocking: "Then let's see who needs to file an insurance claim."

"Great Buddha's Hand!"

"boom--!"

In an instant, the color of the world changed!

A golden Buddha's hand, obscuring the sky, appeared out of thin air, with Sanskrit characters burning in its palm and lightning crackling around it. With a world-destroying force, it slammed down on the mammoth warship!
"What?!" Jack's pupils shrank drastically. He had no time to react and could only watch helplessly as the giant Buddha's palm crushed down upon him!

"boom!!!"

The moment the Buddha's palm collided with the mammoth warship, the entire sea area seemed to be struck by a giant hammer, and the sea surface was dented into a huge palm print!

The ship's armor shattered like paper, and the pirates on the deck didn't even have time to scream before they were blasted into a bloody mist by the shockwave of the Buddha's palm!
"No, impossible!" Jack roared, trying to resist with brute force, but his body was crushed inch by inch under the crushing force of the Buddha's palm!

"Boom—!" The mammoth warship completely disintegrated under the suppression of the Buddha's palm, with fragments of the hull flying everywhere and sinking to the bottom of the sea!

Drought Jack, covered in blood, was thrown hundreds of meters by the shockwave and crashed heavily into the sea, creating a huge splash!

The sea returned to calm, leaving only the floating wreckage and the unconscious Jack.

Fang Yu withdrew his hand. "Still want to rely on it?"

He turned and looked at the high walls of Wano Country, a cold glint in his eyes.

"Kaido, your 'Big Sign' has already been laid down. I hope your Haki-inspired teaching won't disappoint me now."

With Drought Jack sinking to the bottom of the sea, the Ghost Carrot easily sailed into the inland waters of Wano Country.

The thick fog gradually dissipated, revealing the dilapidated yet beautiful scenery of this closed-off country.

In the distance are layers of vermilion torii gates, while nearby, ragged fishermen gather shells among the rocks.

"Nobody actually stopped us?" Nami put away the map and looked around suspiciously.

A few dilapidated fishing boats rocked on the waves at the harbor, and there wasn't even a patrolling pirate.

Fang Yu leaped off the bow of the ship. "That idiot Jack the Drought definitely didn't report it." He kicked aside a wooden barrel blocking his way, spilling moldy rice grains all over the ground. "Grandpa, have you been to Wano Country?"

Red Earl stroked his waist at the sword Shusui, the sword of Wano Country's swordsman Ryuma, a gift from Fang Yu, and nodded with emotion: "I visited this place many, many years ago, but back then this wasn't the territory of the Beasts Pirates. This world..."

The group walked through a cluster of crooked thatched huts and followed the aroma to a ramen shop with red lanterns hanging on its walls.

The words "Tonkotsu Ichiban" on the curtain were badly faded, and there were still traces of blood on the door frame.

"Please come in, five guests~" The owner was an elderly man with only one arm. When he saw the unfamiliar face, his pupils shrank, but he forced a smile: "A new laborer?"

Fang Yu sat down cross-legged with a carefree attitude, the wooden floorboards creaking under the weight: "Thirty bowls of our signature ramen, please."

The owner's ladle clattered into the pot. "Eat? Can we really eat this much?"

“You’ve already said we’re laborers,” Nico Robin said with a smile. “Laborers naturally need to eat more.”

"Okay then!"

"Business must be tough lately, right?" Robin took the hot tea and traced circles on the rim of the cup with his fingertip.

She noticed a thin, pale little girl hiding behind the counter, secretly breaking apart a hardened rice ball.

The old man suddenly lowered his voice: "Everyone, finish eating and leave quickly. You are new workers and don't know the situation. Today is 'offering day'."

Before the words were finished, the sound of chains dragging on the ground came from the street.

Through the gaps in the bamboo curtain, one could see pirates wearing helmets with animal horns kicking down doors from house to house.

The little girl suddenly rushed out and hugged the boss's leg, crying out, "Waaah!"

"Shh!" The boss hurriedly covered the child's mouth, but saw Fang Yu's chopsticks stop in mid-air, his scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan reflected in the noodle soup.

Screams erupted in the street as a pirate lieutenant dragged a peasant woman by the hair, scattering the stolen grain from his sack along the way: "All the grain will be used for military supplies!"

Fang Yu raised an eyebrow, and the moment he put down the bowl, the entire street was filled with a powerful aura!
这 是
Overlord color and domineering!
The pirates outside the door, who had been laughing wildly, suddenly turned into wails. They collapsed to the ground, dizzy, and then Perona's negative phantom passed through their bodies. The group knelt on the ground, weeping and confessing, "We are not even as good as maggots."

Count Red looked at Fang Yu with great admiration, "Your Conqueror's Haki has improved a lot!"

Fang Yu shook his head, "If that were really the case, I wouldn't have come here."

The ramen shop owner was already terrified. He mustered his courage and asked the more approachable Nico Robin, "G-guys, who exactly are you?"

Fang Yu said with a forced smile, "I am a pirate from the Tang Dynasty in the East, here to seek Buddhist scriptures from Kaido."

The boss nodded blankly, then exclaimed in surprise.
"what?!"
