One Piece: From the God Valley Era

Jiuli, Yutian City.

Kanjuro sat in the spot where Kozuki Oden had originally been, looking out over the distant scenery.

"This feels so good. No wonder Lord Orochi wanted to become the Shogun."

"If it were the General's seat, the view would be even better, but unfortunately, Lord Acnoya is here."

"Lord Orochi's goal may not be achieved, but there is still some hope for the Daimyo."

Kanjuro believes that the overall situation in Wano Country will not change much.

Acnoa will occupy the central position, becoming the supreme general, and then he will distribute other regions as fiefdoms, while Lord Orochi should be able to obtain the position of a daimyo.

After all, Lord Orochi has done so much; it's not unreasonable for him to ask for the position of a daimyo.

"Kanjuro-nii, Kanjuro-nii..."

Just then, a familiar voice reached Kanjuro's ears, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look.

A small, black-faced Kikunojo walked in from outside, crying and sobbing, with a few burns on his body.

He ultimately couldn't completely dodge Kaido's wide-range heat breath.

But compared to others, his injuries were already quite healed.

"Kikunojo, what's wrong with you?" Kanjuro asked knowingly and quickly helped him up.

Upon hearing this, Kikunojo grabbed Kanjuro's sleeves with both hands, his eyes brimming with tears: "We...we've been ambushed! Kaido the Blue Dragon appeared on our only path and launched an attack on us."

"Brother Ashura Doji was hit by Kaido's heat breath while covering me, and his fate is currently unknown."

"Kanjuro-nii, what do we do now?"

Hearing this, Kanjuro was overjoyed, but his face remained serious. He quickly asked, "What exactly happened? I saw it too. How is the situation now?"

"I don't know either..." Kikunojo said, "but the situation over there is definitely not good, and we need to send reinforcements over to help."

Kanjuro looked troubled: "Kikunojo, we have no troops left."

"Most of the samurai have been dispatched, and there are hardly any people left in this vast daimyo prefecture. The only ones we can use are ourselves."

"No...aren't there still samurai maintaining order?"

Kanjuro gave a wry smile: "They're no good. They're all bandits and thugs who've been recruited. If we pull them up, they'll just turn against us."

"This is tantamount to aiding the enemy."

"How about I go with you over there and check out the situation?"

That's true, there aren't many troops left on this side.

In order to wipe out his own people in one fell swoop, he sent out everyone who could move, including Kikunojo, leaving him alone to hold down the fort.

And the result was exactly what he wanted.

So now it's time to wrap things up. If he goes and directly betrays us, then Lord Acnoya can secure his position as general.

In reality, Acnoya didn't need any help at all; killing him would have been enough.

"Okay." Kikunojo agreed without even thinking.

Kanjuro grabbed Kikunojo's hand and walked out, taking with him the last of Kuri's troops.

......

At this very moment...

The battle is nearing its end; all that's left is the cleanup.

Ashura Child is dead, his internal organs ruptured, blood flowing from his seven orifices, he died standing up.

"Hmph, this guy's not bad." Kaido stood before him, laughing loudly, "Give him a proper burial!"

He admired the strong. Although Ashura Doji was not strong enough, he still had some skill and fought to the death.

He agreed.

So give him a proper burial so that he can rest in peace and be spared from being devoured by wild dogs.

As for the others, their bodies were collected and destroyed, and their heads were cut off and cast into a mound of skulls to show everyone in Wano Country what the consequences of rebellion were.

At the same time, the Kozuki father and son were also members of this Jingguan (a mound of statues).

"I don't think Acnoya will say anything; he doesn't need this one more corpse," Stussy said. "Now that it's all settled, let's prepare to leave."

"The grand banquet is ready, and the main characters are about to make their appearance."

The main characters of this banquet are these people, the Kozuki father and son, and also the entire Wano Country.

"Hmm." Kaido nodded and roared, "Hurry up!"

"yes!"

"Lord Kaido, Lord Kaido..."

Just then, two pirates led the two of them to this place.

The two people who appeared in front of Kaido were Kanjuro and Kikunojo, who was tied up.

"Nice to meet you, Lord Kaido. This is a gift I brought for Lord Acnoya." Kanjuro said obsequiously, throwing Kikunojo, who was on his shoulder, to the ground.

Kikunojo, who had been unconscious, was awakened by the fall.

"Kikunojo?" Kaido glanced at him. "Izo's younger brother?"

"Yes, Lord Kaido," Kanjuro said. "He is Izo's younger brother. Now that Izo has fallen into Lord Acnoya's hands, I brought this kid along to prevent any unforeseen circumstances."

"Hey, Kanjuro, you're the mole?"

Kikunojo listened to their conversation with a shocked expression, finally understanding why they had been ambushed midway and why he had been attacked by Kanjuro.

It turns out that Kanjuro was the mole among them.

They actually promoted an undercover agent to be the commander-in-chief; it would be strange if they didn't lose.

"That's right, we are the mole you mentioned." Kanjuro said sinisterly, "By the way, my real name is Kurozumi, Kurozumi Kanjuro!"

"What?!" Kikunojo's eyes widened.

He knew the surname Kurozumi; they had launched a rebellion in Wano Country and were considered traitors.

Fortunately, Kozuki Sukiyaki showed leniency, otherwise the Kurozumi clan would have been in complete chaos.

But he never expected that Kanjuro, who had been with them for so long, was actually an undercover agent, and a member of the Kurozumi family.

Kanjuro's acting is just too good.

"You heard me right. I am an undercover agent of the Kurozumi family, and I have been lying in wait by Kozuki Oden's side for this very day."

"I finally did it."

"My Kurozumi family has had the last laugh, while your Kozuki family is about to disappear completely from Wano Country."

"Damn it!" Kikunojo's eyes widened in fury. "Kanjuro, you can't do this! Wano Country can't be without Lord Oden, Lord Sukiyaki!"

"You're leading Wano Country into an abyss!"

"The abyss?" Kanjuro laughed loudly. "To me, Wano Country is the abyss, it's no big deal anymore."

"And what I want is for everyone to fall into this abyss and live the same life as me!"

Upon hearing this, Kikunojo felt a chill run down his spine.

Even Kaido and Stussy felt that Kanjuro was a bit extreme.

They bring happiness to Wano Country, not destruction.

Why does everyone think they're bad people?

Having too strong a reputation isn't necessarily a good thing.
