Arceus' Pirate Journey

Although he was hit hard on the kidney, Kin'emon continued to mock Hotei. These words did not affect him, but Hotei's body suddenly showed abnormalities.

He wanted to continue swinging the bat, but suddenly he lost the ability to move.

"Ninjutsu: Binding Technique! Move, Kin'emon!"

This move can be considered as Raizo's true ninjutsu, which can restrain the enemy's movements, but the price is that he himself cannot move. In a 1v1 situation, this move will become a glare-at-eye technique, and both sides can do nothing but watch.

In the battle of Onigashima in the original timeline, Raizo used this move on Fukurokuju in the sea of ​​fire, defeating the opponent by relying on a tactic of competing in endurance and vitality.

In this kind of small-scale group battle, his binding technique is more effective.

However, this move also has its limitations. The stronger the strength, the more difficult it is to restrain the person. Even the opportunity to restrain the cloth bag took Lei Zang a long time to find.

The opportunities for body binding were limited, as there were more than just a few of them here. While Raizo was controlling the bag, he was surrounded by other warriors, and the sharp blades pierced his body in an instant.

"Lei Zang! Bu Dai, die!"

Seeing that Raizo would rather be attacked than dodge or resist, and tried his best to control Hotei's movements, Kin'emon did not waste this opportunity.

After a cry of pain, the two swords chopped towards Budai's head.

......

Kacha...

A faint sound of bone cracking was heard, and a shallow X-shaped scar appeared on the bone armor on the bag's head, but that was all.

"What a pity! You should have cut my neck!"

When Caracalla was born, it was wearing only a bone mask on its head. It is rumored that it was the skull of Caracalla's mother, but the credibility of this rumor is not high. After all, Pokémon are oviparous animals, and Caracalla will have a mask on its head when it is just hatched.

When Caracara evolves into Galagala, the mask on its head is no longer a mask, but a special exoskeleton formed by the integration of the two.

The structure of the double skull inside and outside makes Gala Gala's head the hardest part of the body, and the characteristics of the bag itself are rare combat armor.

In the game, it means that he will not be hit in the vital parts, but in reality, it means that his vital parts have harder bone armor protection.

Kin'emon's attack failed to kill Hotei, but the attacked Raizo had already fallen. Hotei, who was no longer restrained, was about to continue his attack, but the sky suddenly darkened, and a large amount of black rain suddenly fell. A voice that frightened him rang in his ears.

"stop."

"Ming...Lord Mingwang?!"

Kaido appeared here at some point, and immediately ordered the attacking Shinsengumi members to stop what they were doing.

"No! It's fake! Lord Ming Wang is not that young! Keep going!"

After a brief hesitation, Hotei also discovered the problem. This Kaido was too young. Even though his voice was the same and his appearance was generally similar, his face lacked the signs of aging.

He reacted, but the others did not react so quickly. The fear of Kaido was already engraved in the bones of these people, which gave Kanjuro the opportunity to break through.

Tsuji Shibai flew by, Kanjuro snatched Kin'emon from Hotei's hands, and then jumped high into the air. A huge flying bird was born from the strange black cloud, carrying the two of them away into the distance.

As for Raizang...

Kanjuro was helpless in this matter. It would cost too much to rescue him as he was stabbed several times. Even he was not sure of success, so he had to escape quickly with Kin'emon.

From the fake Kaido to the current Asuka, all of this is Kanjuro's work.

Originally he was an undercover agent, so he had been hiding his painting skills. The things he drew were all abstract creatures that were extremely difficult to move.

However, after the death of Kurozumi Orochi, he, as an undercover agent, lost his master. Coupled with his character of interpreting life, he has completely integrated into the identity of Kozuki's retainer.

Unless Kurozumi Orochi is resurrected, he will be a loyal retainer of Kozuki. For this reason, he no longer hides and directly shows his true painting skills.

While dealing with the samurai in front of him, he continued to splash ink, and eventually the man in the painting, Kaido, was formed.

In the original timeline, he once drew Kozuki Oden to deceive other retainers, and used the fake Oden to carry explosives to kill Ashura Douji.

Kanjuro's real painting skills are excellent, even better than Usopp. Unfortunately, Kanjuro didn't know what Kaido would look like 20 years later. Everything was painted according to what happened 20 years ago, so he quickly exposed himself.

But this still bought him precious time. The black cloud in the sky was also his ability. Using this black cloud, Kanjuro could paint more freely, just like the bird he used for escape.

The more realistic the creatures in the painting are, the smoother their movements are. Compared to the big-headed ducks that Kanjuro usually draws, this giant falcon flies much faster.

Moreover, during the flight, Kanjuro kept using the ink clouds to paint, creating a large number of fake bodies, which flew in all directions to attract the attention of Butai and others and confuse their vision.

"Ink Fire·Floating World Fire Cloud Drawing!"

As Kanjuro's ability was activated, the ink clouds in the sky began to disperse and fall, but in the process of falling, these ink patterns had the property of burning like flames.

This is the terrifying aspect of Kanjuro's ability to use the ink-brush fruit. The objects he creates with ink can possess the properties of the original substance. Rain turning into arrows, ink clouds turning into fire, are all part of his ability. His ability is the most difficult one to deal with among Oden's retainers.

"This bastard..."

"Captain Budai, us?"

"Ask the air cavalry for help, let them deal with those bastards, and the rest of you can follow me to put out the fire! Contact the fire department and ask them to help quickly, these guys really don't care about anything...

You guys, keep an eye on that ninja! Don't let him get away!"

Looking at the part of the street that was burned under the influence of Kanjuro's ability, Hotei was very angry. He did not expect that these people who said he persecuted Wano Country would be even more ruthless when they took action themselves.

In order to retreat smoothly, not only did they release so many fake bodies, but they also directly set the town below on fire.

The original intention was to arrest these people, but they ended up causing such a thing in a downtown area. Now the subsequent handling will be troublesome.

The news of Budai spread quickly, and the Squirtle Fire Department assembled within 1 minute and rushed here on the Tanabata Bluebird, while the Sky Cavalry happened to encounter Kaido who fell out...

Chapter 1164: Something Irretrievable

All~! All~!

A sharp and long whistle sounded on a small sky island. After hearing the whistle, the resting air cavalry members quickly gathered and got ready with their weapons.

"You all saw that there is a group of guys flying around in the sky above Wano Country. Let them know that the sky is our territory! Let's go!"

The Manpower and the Millennium Dragon were ready to go, but before they could take off, Kaido fell in front of them.

"Governor Kaido!"

"Huh? What happened? What are you doing?"

"It's like this, Governor Kaido, Lord Quinn discovered some special circumstances before. Those people from 20 years ago appeared again, and Hotei of the Shinsengumi just reported..."

"Okay, you don't have to chase after her."

"Governor Kaido, what do you mean..."

"Just to add some fun to my dull life, why are you still here? Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

"Yes! Obey!"

The air cavalry that had just assembled was disbanded immediately. Kaido's orders were absolute. If he didn't want to say more, the younger brothers could only choose to obey. They were not at the level where they could give suggestions.

It’s great that Kaido is willing to explain this.

[20 years ago, ridiculous prophecy. Let me see what you guys can do. I'm in Wano Country and I'm not going anywhere.]

In addition to the external explanation, Kaido also has his own ideas, but these ordinary subordinates don’t know about this. They only see Kaido posing an attacking posture.

"Hehe, it would be so boring to just let you go like this. Let me give you a parting gift, Rexi!"

Although he planned to let the two of them go, Kaido didn't want to let them leave just like that, so he released the hot breath himself.

The fake body drawn with ink is fundamentally different from the real body. It can deceive ordinary Shinsengumi members and cause trouble to Hotei, but it cannot hide from Kaido.

Standing on the top of Onijima, he was like a fortress, and the continuous release of heat wiped away all the fake bodies made by Kanjuro.

Under the attack of the heat breath, a series of chain explosions occurred in the sky. The fake body created by Kanjuro collapsed at the touch. Kaido's domineering lock was not intended to kill them, but he was afraid that he would miss when intimidating them and accidentally knock down the real one.

In the end, Kaido deliberately missed the target, allowing them to escape successfully. Then came the outrageous events that Yamato and Queen experienced.

Outside Wano Country, on top of the giant falcon drawn by Kanjuro.

They had just "escaped death" from Kaido's attack, and no one spoke for a moment. No one knew what Kin'emon was thinking, while Kanjuro was organizing his words.

His current performance is very different from before. After all, he has been painting with his left hand in order to hide himself.

He was right-handed and his painting style was deliberately distorted, which resulted in his paintings being very abstract, and completely different from what we draw now.

Now, in order to successfully retreat from Wano Country, Kanjuro has exposed everything. He is thinking about how to make Kin'emon believe him.

"Kinemon, I..."

"No need to say more. I understand that you are powerless. Lord Momonosuke has been exposed, and Raizo has also made a great sacrifice. You can't rescue them all together."

"No, I mean..."

"I understand that now is not the time to be sad. We must hurry up and find the right foreign aid so that we can rescue them.

But your painting skills..."

"Actually, I..."

"When did you become so powerful? With this ability, future operations will definitely go more smoothly."

Kanjuro never thought of it, he thought about the wording for a long time, and it turned out that Kin'emon, like a fool, never doubted him at all, and all the things he thought were in vain.

But it’s better this way, so he doesn’t have to waste his breath.

While feeling relieved, Kanjuro also felt a sense of despair in his heart. He was so immersed in the role that he could not extricate himself and was determined to play the role of Kozuki's retainer until his death.

Rescuing Momonosuke is necessary, but the gap in the lineups between the two sides is a bit exaggerated now.

He has to lead a fool to fight against Wano Country and the Beasts Pirates. This is a purgatory-level dungeon that even if Rocks is resurrected, he can't handle it, let alone Kanjuro who has Kin'emon with him who is likely to be a drag.

Kanjuro has never been undercover to such an extent, if not the first one to do so.

If we have to find a cause and effect, we can only say that it was all Kurozumi Orochi's fault. He took advantage of Kanjuro's personality and made him go undercover, and then he was killed by someone, which eventually led to this situation.

......

In Kuri, the burning flames have been extinguished, and the Squirtles moved very quickly, cooperating with the Shinsengumi who had already started fire-fighting operations, and quickly brought the fire under control. Apart from a large amount of property damage, no casualties were caused, but the number of burns was still quite high.

At this time, the Squirtles are surveying the fire scene to make sure there are no remaining fire sources that have not yet been extinguished.

The edge area is in charge of the Jenny turtle, the inside is the Kami turtle, and the center is checked by a Blastoise.

"Kami."

Blastoise raised his arms to block the collapsing beams.

This area was the center of the battle and was even more affected. It has been completely burned into ruins and has a higher risk of collapse.

The small bodies of Squirtle or Squirtle can be easily buried here, and only Blastoise's turret-like body can perform this task.

Blastoise then adjusted the angle of the muzzle behind it and completely extinguished the flame hidden under the ashes.

After searching for a while, it found a small iron box in the ruins. Due to the material of the box, it successfully survived the fire. After brushing off the dust on the box, the Blastoise picked up the small box and left the ruins.

"Grandma, you don't have to be sad. This house was damaged in the battle. We will compensate you with a new one. Besides, this is an old house and was originally planned to be demolished.

Even if there hadn't been this fire, this street would have been rebuilt by next year at the latest. Don't be sad anymore. Aren't your family members all okay?"

Budai pulled his hair in pain, grabbed one Raizo and ran away with two.

He didn't know why the air cavalry was not dispatched, but he was not responsible for the affairs in the sky, and this operation could not be regarded as a complete failure. There was not much information 20 years ago, and there was no record of flying capabilities.

The problem is the damage caused by the fire that Kanjuro set at the end, so Hotei is working hard to clean up the mess.

"Alas, I have lived here for 60 years, and this place houses the memories of most of my life..."

Looking at the old man lost in his memories, Budai's head seemed to get even bigger. He waved at his men, signaling them to handle things here. Budai wanted to leave. At this time, Blastoise walked out of the fire scene with the box in his hand.

"Kami."

"Thank you..."

The old man took the iron box tremblingly and held it in his arms as if it were a treasure. No one knew what was inside and few people were interested in it. But when Budai was about to leave, the old man suddenly called him.

"Captain Budai, can you catch him, that monster from Hime..."

"Nozomi's youkai?"

“You are too young, you may not know this.

"In the past, there was a monster in Ximei who snatched people's hair. He would suddenly appear in the daytime and cut off other people's hair, even the hair of the dead. That guy... was the weirdo who set the fire before."

The old man talked about the past in the tone of telling a horror story. It was a long time ago. Kanjuro would use these snatched hairs to make writing brushes and sell them for money. , and later became Oden's retainer.

This is the identity played by Kanjuro.

Many elderly people still remember him because of his peculiar behavior and special appearance.

"Ah, I will. Don't worry, grandma. That guy is an arsonist."
