Arceus' Pirate Journey

"Tell her to wait, I'll go find her in a moment."

This was a rare honor she had from the general. Whenever there was a problem, at least he would go to her instead of her going to him.

......

"Do you think this punishment is too light?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, this approach will not work. I have a better suggestion, and the people also need an explanation. This is the new notice I wrote. What do you think?"

After taking the documents from Kozuki Hiyori's hand, his expression beneath the mask became slightly complicated.

The original notice was about thugs trying to assassinate the general, which caused the unrest, but Kozuki Hiyori was more ruthless in this regard.

She repositioned those thugs. They were not just ordinary thugs and traitors. She linked them to the rebellion of the Kurozumi family, and turned their simple opposition to her into opposition to this Mitsuki.

She is now the only descendant of Kozuki in Wano Country, so naturally she has the final say. Moreover, this change she made will completely wipe out those people on the spiritual level. Just this one sentence will make these people never be able to raise their heads in Wano Country again.

She is the first female general, and opposing her will not cause much waves, but when the level rises to the Kozuki clan, the result will be completely different.

"And I think this time is too short. Since these people have the energy to start a rebellion, they should just mine for the rest of their lives, so that they don't have the energy to cause trouble everywhere."

She had no mercy in her heart for those accomplices who wanted to kill her own people. Once this notice was sent out, it would mean that she had completely broken off with this group, but she no longer cared about it since last night.

There was no reason to reject such a suggestion, so he just let Kozuki Hiyori handle it himself, and he reported the situation here back to Onigashima.

They have the ability to nip the rebels in the bud, but Arceus made the decision to conduct an exercise. So far, it seems that the exercise has achieved good results and even triggered some hidden conditions.

......

At this time, Kozuki Hiyori was making a public statement about last night's riots. While comforting the injured, she also strongly condemned the behavior of those people and nailed them, like Kurozumi Orochi, to the pillar of shame of Wano Country.

"It's like killing someone and destroying their heart. When a woman gets ruthless, she can be really ruthless."

Simple death cannot completely scare those who give up their brains for fame and wisdom, but what Kozuki Hiyori did has strangled the hope in their hearts and made them live in condemnation and infamy.

For such people, living like this is even more painful than death, and they have successfully attracted the hatred of the people. Those who experienced the turmoil last night were all cursing them.

Even if it was all over, I sighed a little bit that she was ruthless.

"That's true. When those women get ruthless, they're all crazy."

Thinking about his own experience, Quinn agreed with Jin's words. After all, women like Shayna and Setsuna had caused him a lot of harm, and sometimes they were comparable to Kaido.

"But there are exceptions. At least Miss Yamato doesn't have this tendency."

"Then you'd better pray. You won't see that day. She is Kaido's daughter. If she gets really ruthless, hehe."

He patted Quinn's shoulder, left immediately and returned to the palace in the Flower City.

"That's not right! Even if she really wanted to be ruthless, why would she use me as a training ground?"

Quinn, who realized it belatedly, roared towards the sky, and then returned to his laboratory. His flowers had already sprouted, which was a very good start.

......

The direct impact of the assassination was basically over, but the indirect impact continued. The remaining people were imprisoned in the Rabbit Bowl Mine, including those who witnessed the killing scenes of Yan Mo and Tian Yu Yu Zhan.

Because they were mentally stimulated to a certain extent, their descriptions of the incident were slightly different, but in the end they were all similar and could not avoid the word "Oden's ghost".

After all this, some people were really shaken. If even Oden agreed with these things, it meant that all this was the best outcome. In addition, the domestic environment was getting better and better, and this assassination attempt actually accelerated the pace of the inner collapse of some stubborn people.

Chapter 796: The Strange Political System of Wano Country, the Spade Pirates

"Oden's ghost" gradually became a well-known supernatural event in Wano Country. Except for Kozuki Hiyori, the more familiar people were with Oden, the more they thought this matter was reasonable.

After Kozuki Oden ended his weird way of entertainment, his goal was to make Wano Country a better place. Except that the country has not been completely opened yet, everything in Wano Country is countless times better than it was a decade ago.

Reasonable industrialization will not damage the environment, but can greatly improve people's livelihood. What's more, there are unscientific creatures like Pokémon. Wano Country has truly embarked on the path of green development.

After the New Year's Festival, the time has come to 1517, which can be said to be a node time for Wano Country, because starting from this year, their general changed.

He is no longer a puppet who is only responsible for stamping. He will even take the initiative to offer some constructive suggestions. However, these opinions are not so friendly to those who still believe in the prophecy.

Denjiro once hinted this to Hiyori, but got an answer that left him speechless.

[I don’t want to be labeled a criminal for no reason, nor do I want to be killed for no reason]

At the same time, the traditions of Wano Country also changed. In the closed-door environment, unique customs were formed here, including the gods they believed in. The original religious development of Wano Country did not move towards uniformity.

Although those local gods are not as good as the emerging Pokémon, they are also "orthodox". However, this year, Kozuki Hiyori made a drastic change, and even the temple behind the Shogun's Palace was replaced with a statue of Arceus.

The assassination made her completely stand on the opposite side of the conservative forces, and her heart of revenge began to grow. Since they didn't want her to live, she didn't want to let them feel at ease.

......

"Master Holy Beast, you see, there are more pilgrims coming."

At the top floor of the sky island above Wano Country, Arceus and Shaina were looking down at the top of Fujiyama Mountain, and they could also see many Wano people climbing the mountain.

Arceus came here just to observe the living environment of the Tanabata Bluebird, but unexpectedly he discovered some unusual changes.

"Your decision was indeed correct. Since the New Year Festival ended, Hiyori Kozuki has changed from passive cooperation to active cooperation. Abel also said that he has been much less worried recently."

There was no one around, and the only ones who could hear them talking were Qixi Bluebird and Blue Mianbird, so Sha Yinna didn't care about those things.

“Is that so…”

Arceus had no comment on this, he had originally just wanted to do an exercise, and the result was exaggeratedly good. Originally, most of the pilgrims were young people, but with the general's words, some hesitant elderly people began to change their minds.

They were already struggling between reality and tradition, and now that the general has spoken, everything has a reasonable explanation. This is also the reason for maintaining a puppet regime. The general's influence on Wano Country is too profound.

Arceus is not a devil. As long as he doesn't cross the line, he is a kind person and doesn't want to carry out that kind of bloody cleanup.

Originally, Arceus thought that this transformation would take some time to complete, but he didn't expect it to be so advanced. According to the information collected, Kozuki Hiyori even suggested redefining the royal system of Wano Country and creating a system of divine right of kings.

It’s just that it’s a little too early to do so. The changes now are already big enough, and many things have to be done step by step.

At this time, the political power of Wano Country was very special. It was similar to a religious country, but religion was not the actual ruler. Theocracy and actual royal power were combined so harmoniously that there was no other such country in the world.

"Shayina, tell Misu to stop making such a big move. There's no point in making such a big fuss in Wano Country all the time."

Misu must have intervened in matters related to religion. Although she is a nun, she is almost doing the same things as the Pope.

"Yes, I understand."

Arceus had no opinion on this matter in the past, and the suggestion he gave made Sha Yinna stunned for a moment, but then she figured it out.

The purpose of the existence of the Cult of Arceus is not to collect faith, but to allow more people to collect stone tablets. After so many years in Wano Country, it has long been confirmed that there are no other stone tablets here.

Therefore, the benefits of making big moves in Wano Country are not high. The speed of missionary work in the outside world should be accelerated, allowing believers to search for more information on the stone tablets, so that it will be valuable to Arceus.

Misu had told her before that Tiger was also carrying out missionary activities during his travels, but it had little effect. Few people were willing to listen to the fishman's preaching. She just happened to have the idea of ​​leaving Wano Country, so it seemed that this could be brought forward.

......

Pokémon are gradually breeding, and the Millennium Dragon's tribe has some new cubs. In the sky, you can also see Farfetch'd exercising. They tie huge onion leaves behind them with ropes, and then fly with the weight.

If they hold the onion in their hands, the weight will make them lose balance and unable to fly. It looks like just an ordinary onion, but it is very heavy. Even Xiaozhi has to hold it with both hands, which shows how heavy it is.

The Giant Blacksmith battles wits and courage with Commander Pi Zhan and Steelix every day, the Good and Bad Stars gnaw on the surrounding corals, the Magikarp are bumping on the sea, and the cadres are also going to various sea areas to perform tasks. In the process, they will also do different things according to their own preferences.

Time has not changed the nature of the sea. Today is still a turbulent era. The new year means a new beginning, but also means encountering more pirates.

Time flies, and a few months passed in a flash. Both the navy and the pirates absorbed a lot of fresh blood.

In the Sabaody Archipelago, a new group of people arrived in this sea area.

A brand new pirate flag fluttered on the flagpole. On the spade background was a skull with two figures with completely opposite expressions and a flame emblem.

This year's supernova, Fire Fist Ace, has completed the first half of his voyage and arrived at the outpost in the New World.

"Hey, Ace! We're almost at Shampooland!"

"Really? We're finally here. Let's just go all in and charge into the new world!"

Standing on the bow, Ace was full of confidence and had endless expectations for the future, but before he could further shout out his goals, the crew had already poured cold water on him.

"Forget about it. Entering the new world requires coating and passing through Fishman Island. We will be delayed for at least three days."

The speaker is Scar, a pirate enthusiast who calls himself a collector of people and a collector of skull peripherals. He once traveled to various ports in the world on various ships. Scar played a huge role in the Spade Pirates' arrival here...

Chapter 797 This Year's Newcomers Are Even Stranger

A man wearing a skull mask is telling Ace and others what to pay attention to before entering the New World. A dozen people plus a lynx make up the current Spade Pirates. In terms of the number of people, it is also a small pirate group, and it also gathers all kinds of interesting people.

Skarr is such a weirdo, wearing a skull mask and with various skull patterns on his body.

He is a collector of skull-related items and was not originally a pirate.

It's just that in this great pirate era, he is so obsessed with the pirate group that he always sneaks into various pirate ships.

Those pirates are not fools. Skarl is often discovered, but his luck is always good. Not all pirates are like Quinn who suffers from paranoia and checks for unknown persons every day.

They often captured some people to do odd jobs on the ship, and sometimes directly recruited them as their minions. It was also a skill that Scarr managed to survive successfully. Through this way, he reached one port after another and had a rich understanding of the world.

Most of the pirates seemed to think that he was just a busybody and was of no use at all except for doing odd jobs. Only Ace didn't think so. Eventually, he joined the Spade Pirates, aiming to be the world's number one intelligence expert, and officially became a pirate.

"We're going to be delayed for three days... I wonder if the food here is good or not."

Ace, who was still worried in the previous second, said something slightly strange the next moment, but the people in the Spade Pirates did not find it strange, but instead seemed to be used to it.

There is a regular port on the Sabaody Archipelago, but it has nothing to do with the Spade Pirates. They are pirates after all. At this time, Scar is reminding the crew to be careful.

After all, there are all kinds of people here. If you are targeted by the navy, bounty hunters, or colleagues with ulterior motives, I am afraid you won’t care about the coating.

"The navy, bounty hunters, world nobles, and human traffickers... There are too many things that can cause trouble here. Before the coating is completed, please don't cause any trouble for me, especially you. Please, Boss Ace."

Finally, Scar's gaze rested on Ace and he gave him a solemn instruction. Although Ace looked serious, the focus was not on him at all. He was more concerned about whether the great buns tasted good or not.

"Teacher, I'll leave the boat to you."

The crew members were preparing to leave the ship one after another. The man who was called the teacher was named Michal. He didn't like going out and stayed on the ship most of the time. He was originally a teacher, but the place where he taught gradually had no children, so he was the only one who stayed there.

His dream was to travel across the ocean and be with the children in the world who could not receive an education. Because Ace was the only one who supported his dream for so many years, he stepped out of his comfort zone and joined the Spade Pirates.

Skarl was still worried about Ace, but he no longer had a chance.

"Sailing is hard, and it is the captain's duty to comfort the crew. Leave the task of finding food to me!"

Having said that, Ace jumped off the side of the ship without any hesitation and headed straight for the Sabaody Archipelago.

Looking at Ace going away, the remaining crew members were left looking at each other in bewilderment. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared into the mangroves.

The captain went to collect food for the crew, while Deus, the deputy captain, did his proper work. This was his pen name. He was originally a second-generation noble and a medical student in a certain country, but he started his new life for various reasons.

While looking for a coating craftsman, they found an old man with white hair.

"Are you the captain?"

"No, I'm not. I'm just an agent. The captain was attracted by the smell as soon as he landed."

"Hahaha, it turns out that no matter what era, captains are always casual people."

"Yeah, some people even talk about fate and force people to become pirates. Uncle, are you a pirate too?"

"It happened a long time ago. I boarded the ship for some insignificant reasons, and it was such a long journey. I think I will get along well with you in the future. Do you need coating? I can give you a discount."

"Really? Thank you very much. What's your name, uncle? I can't keep calling you that."

"Just call me Rayleigh."

Deus was finalizing the issue of the ship's coating. At this time, he did not realize who this seemingly ordinary uncle in front of him was. Intelligence work has never been his forte.

On the other side, as expected, Ace encountered some troubles.

......

"You're eating a free meal! Stop!

"

"Stop him! That kid is running that way!"

The staff of several shops are united and are chasing down some people who don't pay for their meals, and in front of them, the figure of Ace is running away.

It's not that he didn't want to give money, but he didn't bring his wallet when he went out, and ended up in this situation. The people following him closest were a few people with fruit patterns on their clothes.

"Hey, I'll give you the money! Just wait until I find my wallet!"

"Stop it! This is the Sabaody Archipelago! If you run away, where will we find you?"

The escaping Ace and the chasing waiter became a unique landscape and attracted many people's attention.

"Sister Yinsika, the people in front seem to be ours, do you want to go and help them?"
