Arceus' Pirate Journey

"And to be honest, this is just so-so. There's nothing shocking about it. It's not even as interesting as a novel."

"A little...novel?"

"Yes, it was written by Robin. It's called Revenge of a Princess in Distress. Robin is much better in terms of being scheming."

When he is free, Robin also has some daily pastime activities, such as writing some strange articles.

In Yamato's opinion, when it comes to cunning, Robin can basically outwit Tsuki Hiyori.

And this is indeed the case. Robin's ability basically crushes Hiyori in all aspects, even in the original timeline. The information Robin collected in a few days is even more than what Hiyori collected in 20 years.

Previously, Kozuki Hiyori had a position as the general's personal assistant. Originally, this job was held by Jin, but since some restrictions were relaxed, Jin rarely held this position.

Yamato wanted to find a job for Robin. At the moment, this job seems to be good. It doesn't require much work and is very suitable for her.

Before Quinn could ask Robin for the details of what he had written, a slightly panicked voice suddenly came from the side.

"Quinn...Lord Quinn! The latest information is that two people flew away from Wano Country!"

They only knew that Quinn was here, but didn't know that Yamato was also here. Because the information was urgent, he didn't notice Yamato who was blocked by Quinn. However, Yamato himself didn't care about such things. Instead, Quinn was shocked.

"What did you say?! Where are the air cavalry? Are they useless? How could they let someone slip away right under their noses?!"

"No...No, Lord Quinn, someone stopped them..."

"Who? Who in Wano can stop the entire Sky Cavalry? Let me go meet that bastard!"

"Uh-huh, very good. I like your attitude."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaido walked in from outside with his head covered. At this moment, Yamato instantly switched from lazy watching mode to combat state, and Quinn also thought of something.

"Brother Kaido... could it be that?"

"Ah, that's me. I happened to see them about to take off after the flight ended, so I stopped them."

Hearing this, Quinn's neck suddenly stretched out like a beast, and he came in front of the little brother like a ghost.

"You bastard, can't you tell the priorities when reporting intelligence? Why don't you just tell them the important things first! Can't you just say that Kaido asked them to stop?!"

......

If Quinn didn't know that Yamato only had a few direct subordinates, and this was an emergency, he would have suspected that this little brother was arranged by Yamato to persecute him.

As he was berating his younger brother, a question arose in Yamato's mind.

"Father, those people also came here 20 years ago, why did you let them leave?"

"Because it's boring."

"Bored?"

"Yeah, it's just the same few people fighting each other every day, and the repetitive fighting is boring even for me.

Those guys are probably going to look for foreign aid. It would be great if they could bring back some interesting guys to add some fun to this boring life."

The reason was very willful and very Kaido-like. Yamato couldn't find any objection to it, but he just felt it was wrong.

"Will my godfather be unhappy if I cause trouble?"

"Hehe, Yamato, you are wrong. This is their last chance. They deliberately released these two people. When they come back with foreign aid, they can catch all those who have ulterior motives.

I have given them enough chances. If there are still those who don't know what's good for them, I will have to settle accounts with them all.

It is your adoptive father's kindness to let them live and enjoy all this.

But I am a pirate, not as easy to talk to as your adoptive father. Sometimes opportunities have been given, but whether they can seize them is their own business. "

It seemed like he was educating Yamato, but Kaido suddenly turned around and put his hand on Quinn's shoulder.

Quinn's plan to sneak away also failed.

"Quinn, where do you want to go?"

"Well...I'll take care of the aftermath for you."

"No need, I just wanted to meet you, now is the best day.

And you, Yamato, don't even think about running away, you'll be the next one."

Accompanied by a breath of despair, Quinn was dragged out by Kaido, and even left a notice for Yamato. Only the younger brother who had just delivered the message was still in a daze.

As for who the funny person was that Kaido deliberately released, we have to trace back further.

......

Some time ago, just when Kozuki Hiyori had left the Flower Capital Palace, the search in Kuri made new progress.

After Budai confirmed the identities of several people, he quickly transmitted the wanted information through the public screening screens distributed throughout Jiuli.

The characteristics of Kanjuro and Raizo were too obvious, and coupled with Kuri's quick blockade action, someone soon discovered their tracks.

"Here! The guys are in the alley behind!"

"They ran west! Right next to the udon shop!"

No matter where they went, as long as they were seen, they would immediately hear shouts. In the end, the three of them were blocked in a dead end. The side paths and rooftops were crowded with people who wanted to gain merit, even Butai was no exception.

"It's you guys again. It's been 20 years since we last met. Please come with me and take a rest."

Budai held up the knife very politely, intending to invite these people to a prison trip.

"Damn...how did these people find us here?"

"Kinemon, Kanjuro, you go help Lord Momonosuke, I'll hold them back. Lord Momonosuke seems to have had some trouble."

Lei Zang pulled out several scrolls from behind him and resolutely decided to cover the retreat.

"Don't worry, the three of you. Momonosuke has been arrested. Otherwise, how would we know that you guys have shown up? It seems that you are not going to cooperate. Go ahead and catch them!"

At Hotei's command, the members of the Shinsengumi immediately surrounded them. Kin'emon and Kanjuro knocked down the first person who rushed up. Their strength was still much stronger than that of the ordinary Shinsengumi, but it was of no use.

As soon as they knocked down one person, more people would rush forward.

"Fox Fire Flow: Fire Willow Flash!"

"Scrolling Art - Fire Escape!"

Flames ignited on Kin'emon's blade and he slashed at the samurai in front of him.

Raizo released the flames stored in his own scroll. He was the user of the parahuman-type Maki-Mako no Mi, but Raizo didn't know that he had eaten a devil fruit.

Due to the limitations of Wano Country, he regarded the ability of the fruit as his own awakened ninjutsu, calling it "Ninjutsu Scroll of Ninjutsu".

To put it simply, you can create scrolls to absorb other people's attacks and release them.

Kanjuro's movements were not as big, but he also guarded behind them and reminded his companions at the same time.

"Don't fight any longer, Lord Momonosuke needs our help! We have to rescue him!"

"Then hurry up and leave this to me! Ninja technique: Smoke escape technique!"

Raizo threw a smoke bomb at the ground, and thick smoke immediately covered the entire alley. The ninjutsu of Wano Country has always been like this, except that the name of ninjutsu is used to cover up the essence of using props.

Just when Lei Zang wanted to retreat with the help of the smoke bomb, a bone stick was thrown out by the bag, directly dispersing the smoke in the alley...

Chapter 1163: As we all know, the operation of the organization depends entirely on undercover agents

"Ahem...Don't panic! Keep your formation steady! There are only a few roads here, and we have people all around. They can't fly out!"

Times have changed. The Jiuli today is no longer the same Jiuli as before. Before, when they were in the suburbs, they didn’t feel the changes in the road much.

When they first entered the city, there was no one chasing them, so they could slowly grope their way around without getting lost.

Later, they discovered the signal flares that were lit in the area where Momonosuke was, and realized that something must have gone wrong there. However, at this time, someone was already investigating the "gang fraud" incident, forcing them to take a detour.

But before they could get out, Quinn, in order to prevent any threat to his quality of life, had already rushed over and passed back the news about Momonosuke, and Kuri was directly put into a state of martial law.

The Shinsengumi is just a security force in Wano Country. The ordinary members are not very strong, but they are enough to maintain domestic law and order, but they can only rely on numbers to deal with Oden's retainers.

They may seem to be just ordinary retainers, but in fact some of them have extremely strange vitality. They can even use their heads to block Kaido's stick without dying. It is extremely strange.

Yes, it is Kin'emon, this creature with strange vitality. Before Luffy awakened and became Nika, he would roll his eyes if he was hit by a stick. However, Kin'emon was able to wake up in a very short time with the help of his body, and this was the result of 20 years of less training.

One can't help but wonder whether he has awakened the Fu-Fu Fruit and developed clothing such as the Resurrection Armor.

However, that exaggerated vitality was not equal to his combat power. Surrounded and blocked by a large number of people, and even ordinary residents would report them if they saw them, they were soon trapped in a blind spot and faced a do-or-die situation.

Because he is a user with special abilities, Raizo can carry far more tools than other ninjas. A large number of smoke bombs block the vision of those around him. For most people, having their vision blocked is a very troublesome thing.

"Get out of the way! Why are you so flustered? What's the point of this little trick?!"

The cloth bag at the back dispersed the people who were blocking the front, and its body swelled slightly. A bone mask covered its face, leaving only two triangular holes for the eyes, and only fluffy hair was left spreading out from the back.

Garagara, a ground-type bone-loving Pokémon, is the evolved form of Caracalla.

A bone stick appeared in each hand, and after a little force, it was thrown forward.

The bones in their hands are their weapons. Since Hotai is a dual-wielder, he also has two bones. After acquiring this ability, he no longer carries knives with him.

The bones that were born with the ability were far more convenient and easier to control than ordinary samurai swords.

The bone stick spun at high speed in the smoke, and the cyclone it created dispersed the smoke from the smoke bomb, revealing the three people who wanted to retreat.

The bone stick did not stop, but continued to fly forward.

Zeng! Clang!

Kanjuro and Kin'emon each blocked a bone stick. Although it looked like ordinary bones, it was as hard as the swords in their hands, and the power contained in it was also exaggerated.

After they struggled to bounce it away, the bone stick returned to Budai's hand as if it was being manipulated.

Bone Boomerang is the exclusive move of the Garagar lineage. Most of the abilities of this Pokémon are in the bone stick in its hand. If they lose the bone stick, their combat effectiveness will plummet.

"You guy...budai?"

Although! His face was obscured by a strange bone mask, Kin'emon still recognized him from his voice and the shape of his hair. They had dealt with each other before, and their relationship was not friendly.

Strictly speaking, they were all street thugs at the time, or to put it more nicely, ronin.

Later, Kin'emon joined Oden, and Hotei hung out on the streets for a while, and finally chose to surrender when the Beasts were clearing up the security problems in Wano.

However, after Kin'emon became Oden's retainer, they had no more interactions. As a retainer, he could no longer hang out on the streets like he did in the past.

"This is incredible, this is incredible, I never thought that Kin'emon-sama still remembered me. But that's true, after all, to you, 20 years ago was just yesterday."

Not having much intersection does not mean that there is no intersection at all. After Kin'emon was accepted as a retainer by Oden, his status changed dramatically and he became more arrogant.

After changing his lifestyle, he no longer hung out on the streets with his former brothers. Even when he saw his former enemies who were trying to seize his territory, there was more contempt in his eyes. In Kin'emon's view, the status of a retainer meant that they were from two different worlds.

"You bastard, as a person from Wano Country, you actually joined the beasts to persecute Wano Country!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you out of your mind? If you are so loyal, why don't you follow Lord Oden and die together?"

Baijuu did not deliberately discredit Oden. Now Hiyori is also a general, and Hotei still respects him verbally.

"Asshole...Fox Fire Flow!"

The two swords collided, and a large amount of flames surrounded Kin'emon's blade, and attacked Hotei. It was obvious that Hotei was the leader now, and it was probably only by taking him down that the next action could be continued.

"You are a defeated general, don't take it for granted! Don't think that becoming a sorcerer can change the outcome!"

As the blade was swung, a large amount of flames shot out, igniting some debris in the alley.

"Witch? Stop looking down on me. This is the reward I got after 15 years of hard work. It's completely different from someone like you!"

The front ends of the two bone sticks were wrapped in an ochre-colored energy. The bone sticks began to rotate in Butai's hand, and then smashed towards Kin'emon in front of him with great force.

Every contact between the knife and the stick would produce a large amount of sparks, but Hotei turned a blind eye to the attached flames and didn't care about them at all.

The principle of how Kin'emon controls fire is a mystery, but one thing is certain: fire is not his specialty. This ordinary fire does not have much effect on Hotei, who has ground-based abilities; it just makes him a little hot.

"It's true that I couldn't beat you back then, but do you think nothing has happened in the past twenty years? Why do you think I became the team leader?"

The bone stick in Butai's hand suddenly flew out, drew a strange arc in the air, and finally hit Kin'emon's kidney.

"Come to think of it...How did Team Leader Hotei become the team leader?"

"Well... isn't it because he can lick? Even though he is usually very strict with us, I heard that he is very good at flattery..."

After hearing Hotei's questioning of Kin'emon, the younger brothers who were standing by to support him started whispering among themselves.

"Shut up! Is this the time to be saying something like that? Let's catch these bastards first. This is a rare achievement!"

The samurai next to him whispered to stop the people who were gossiping, and continued to lead the attack. There were two other people here besides Kin'emon.

"You like using bones so much. It seems you are very comfortable being a dog."
