Arceus' Pirate Journey

Some other people had already rushed towards Babanuki's room and just happened to see Kin'emon being knocked out.

Because of the aftermath, Kin'emon's body was not affected at all, and his physique was not bad. In the future, he will be a man who can take a blow from Kaido and stand up.

At that time, he was sent to the future by the To-To-To Fruit, which means that he did not receive much training in those 20 years. It can be said that this is a kind of talent.

"Lord Babanuki!"

"It's an intruder, don't let him get away!"

Babanuki walked out of the smoke and dust. The King of Leave had great power, but there was only one drawback, which was the King of Leave's own laziness.

After attacking, the King of Leave will enter a resting stage. It is not simply a rest, but a period of accumulating strength. This is the biggest drawback of the King of Leave, as there is a certain gap in the attack.

With training, this gap will become shorter and shorter, but now Babanuki does not have the ability to overcome this gap, but he has found another way.

Although he is affected in beast mode and man-beast mode, his human form is not affected, so he has developed this unique mode, which Arceus calls "spear cutting mode".

As we all know, in FPS games, the reloading speed of a heavy sniper rifle is extremely slow. In order to reduce this gap, people will switch between primary and secondary weapons to shorten this time.

Babanuki, on the other hand, survived the stiffness period by switching between states and using human form.

Although he would be much weaker without his abilities, Kin'emon had not yet reached his peak, and it was still two years before Kozuki Oden returned to his country.

Babanuki, who obtained the ability of the King of Leave, greatly enhanced his own strength, so it was no problem for him to deal with Kin'emon during this period of time.

Although he will be weaker when he returns to human form, this is the Rabbit Bowl Mining Ground, now the territory of the beasts. Kin'emon is not facing a Babanuki, but a group of people.

"Catch him alive and see what he wants to do."

As the first opponent to actively provoke the Beasts Pirates after they arrived in Wano Country, they did not use guns, but rushed forward waving their weapons. This was not a one-on-one duel, and anyone would be a fool not to use the advantage in numbers.

And for some reason, Kin'emon felt that these pirates rushing up were a little crazy. He did not understand the system of the Beasts Pirates, where strength determined status and merits were rewarded.

If you want to get more, you have to work harder.

The rules made by Arceus and Aesia are very restrictive for pirates, but no one refuses them because they are an absolute crushing advantage in status and strength. If you want to join the Beasts, you must abide by these rules.

Because Beasts not only has rules, but also rewards.

Moreover, those rewards are something that all pirates are interested in. As the first person to cause trouble, Kin'emon is just a lottery ticket in their eyes.

"Damn it, Foxfire Style! Draw your sword and slash!" Looking at the people rushing towards him, Kin'emon did not give up resistance. He was called Foxfire Kin'emon because of his swordsmanship.

Both swords were drawn, flames ignited on the blades, and Kin'emon parried the initial attack before swinging his sword and wounding another man, but this did not stop the next pirate, but the ability to use fire was something the Beasts Pirates were already accustomed to.

Even though he chopped down the first few people who rushed up, the people behind him still continued to attack him.

He wanted to break out, but the guards of the Rabbit Bowl Quarry were not going to give him this opportunity. The gate had already been closed and sealed, and Babanuki's "gun-cutting state" had also ended. He once again transformed into the human-beast form of the King of Leave.

"Get out of the way!"

The ground was full of cracks as he suddenly jumped up, and Babanuki's figure burst out. Although the King of Leave looked lazy, when he moved, the power of his explosion was incredibly amazing.

Hearing Babanuki's shout, the people around dispersed. The members of the Beasts Pirates were basically allocated according to small cadres like Babanuki. They were responsible for leading ordinary pirates, and the pirates under their command rarely changed.

Because he was not familiar with his boss's fighting style, he was likely to cause trouble during the battle. Seeing Babanuki rushing towards him, Kin'emon also swung his sword at him.

However, unexpectedly, Babanuki neither dodged nor used Haki. Instead, he took the two swords he swung and then hugged Kin'emon.

"I got you, bastard." Then a strange wave appeared on Babanuki's body.

Then there was a scream, and two deeper knife wounds appeared on Kin'emon's body.

Double Payback: Return double the physical damage received.

There are two sources of skills for Pokémon users. One is that they are bestowed by Arceus. In this regard, he is an all-purpose move machine. He can master all the skills with stone attributes and pass them on to the right people.

The other is to improve oneself through training and thus comprehend new skills. This can be regarded as an alternative fruit development. Double Repayment is the skill that Babanuki comprehended by himself.

And it’s not over yet. Before he entered a lazy state, Babanuki, who was holding Kin'emon in his arms, launched a strange power technique, and a crisp sound was heard, which was the sound of broken bones.

His arm bones, ribs, and even vertebrae were damaged, and Kin'emon fainted from the blow.

"Master Babanuki, didn't you say to capture him alive?"

"He's not dead, so send him to Brother Jin and tell him that we have captured a rebel. Let Brother Jin do the interrogation." As he said this, Babanuki took the bandage handed to him by his men and skillfully wrapped it around himself a few times.

It seems that this is not the first time he has paid back double.

Chapter 159 The Betrayer

After finishing the battle, Babanuki looked a little lazy. This was also the effect of the King of Leave's ability. Although he was strong, his strength would be limited due to laziness in continuous fighting. This was also the reason why he served as a guard.

His ability is more suitable for fighting in his own territory. Although the ability has side effects, it cannot conceal the strength of the ability. Besides, it is reasonable for the warden's ability to have some side effects.

Although he gave the order to send people to Onigashima, he did not do nothing. The defeated pirate prisoners continued to be sent to work, while the thugs in Wano Country were gathered together.

"Everyone, we are all old acquaintances. After spending such a long time together, I believe none of you are dissatisfied, right?"

Babanuki's words made these people a little angry, but no one refuted. They were all gangsters, and bullying the weak and fearing the strong was their nature. As for the so-called chivalrous and courageous people, there were only one or two of them among the gangsters in the entire Wano Country.

Most hooligans use this as an excuse to cover up the fact that they bully the weak and fear the strong, and bring harm to the people in their community.

The strength of the guards at the Tuwan Mine is overwhelming compared to these thugs, and any show of resistance will only result in suffering.

On the contrary, if one honestly performs labor reform, he or she may be able to find a new job or be released. Although rare, there are indeed two model workers who have regained their freedom.

Their hard work made them understand the value of freedom. They behaved much better after returning home, which made the neighbors feel incredible. The Rabbit Bowl Mine became a new reason for adults to scare the children.

Seeing that no one stood up to find fault, Babanuki smiled with satisfaction.

"Today, an intruder appeared here. I don't believe he broke in here for no reason." No one would come to this place for a picnic, and he just said that he would take a few newcomers out, so the result is obvious.

"Among the newcomers, there are some who have a connection with him. Whoever can report this will get three days of vacation and meat. There is only one quota."

As he spoke, he gestured to his men, and Kin'emon, who was chained to a wooden cart, was pulled around the arena so that everyone could see his face clearly.

Although Babanuki was confident that he had severely injured him, it could be seen from the fact that he was not dead yet that his vitality was very strong. In order to prevent him from waking up halfway, Babanuki ordered other pirates to lock him up with chains made of seastone.

Seastone is very rare in the outside world, but in Wano Country, seastone is a very common material, but the forging process is difficult.

Moreover, Babanuki believed that Kin'emon was a person with special abilities. Whether it was the smoke that appeared on his body when he changed his clothes before, or his ability to ignite flames on his sword, Babanuki felt something was wrong.

He was locked up just in case. Even though they were all torture experts, he still had to find out the basic information before sending them away.

"His name is Kin'emon, he is..."

"His name is Kin'emon, also known as Foxfire Kin'emon, and he is now a retainer of Kozuki Oden! His wife is called Ahe, and they live in Kuriboro Town, and they run a teahouse on weekdays!"

One of them just recognized Kin'emon, but before he could finish his words, someone next to him said it first.

"Hey! Aren't you his former little brother?"

"Well... so what, that was all in the past..." Although he also betrayed Kin'emon, his former younger brother was faster than anyone else and, relying on his familiarity with Kin'emon, he said more things.

He had had enough of the time he had been captured here, and he couldn't escape, so of course he didn't want to give up any chance to leave here.

"Very good, very good. Give him a reward and move him to the most tiring position."

Looking at the quarreling thugs, Babanuki ordered the reward to be given to the thug who spoke first, and then replaced the younger brother who betrayed Kin'emon with the most difficult position.

"Why? Didn't you say..."

All he got was a whip from the guard.

"Let me reiterate one thing. Only the first person to speak will get the reward. Answering quickly will not work. And the most important thing about this Rabbit Bowl Mine is that here, I am the boss! He came here to save you. You scum who betrayed the big brother should work here until you die."

Then, under his orders, these people continued to work, and Kin'emon was sent to Onigashima along with his identity information.

......

"Brother Jin, this is it. He sneaked into the Rabbit Bowl Mine and was later caught by Chief Warden Babanuki. This is his personal information."

"Got it. Send him inside and let Naqin take care of him first." After touching Kin'emon's body a few times and confirming his injuries, he gave new instructions.

Naqin has demonstrated her worth over the years. Apart from not officially joining the Beasts Pirates, she is no different from other members of the Pirates. However, she is very determined in this regard and has been working hard to save money and wait for Wald's comeback.

Kin'emon's condition was obviously not able to withstand interrogation, so he asked Naqin to deal with it for him. Naqin and Quinn can be said to represent the two routes of Chinese and Western medicine of the Beasts Pirates today, and they have made considerable achievements in their respective fields.

Naqin just didn't have the right to command the members of the Hundred Beasts Battle and know the core plan. Information about Kin'emon didn't need to be hidden from her. She simply used some drugs to keep him alive, and then took a look at the information sent to her.

"Hasn't everything that needs to be investigated already been investigated? Why are you still interrogating me?"

"Sometimes torture is not about getting results. I just need the process." Jin moved his hands and then took out various strangely shaped things. However, with just a glance, Naqin could see their effects.

It does not harm the human body but can bring great pain. I think the research on this aspect is more comprehensive than that of a doctor like her.

"Have you taken the herbs I prescribed for you? You really need some treatment. I don't know how you managed to hold on, but an ordinary person would have gone crazy a long time ago."

"Ordinary people should have died long ago, you don't have to worry about it. As long as those guys are still alive and well, I will be fine...but your medicine does have some effect."

Before leaving, Jin began to admit this. Naqin was good at herbal medicine, and the effects on many things were not so quick, but she was very good at conditioning.

She believed that Jin and Sha Yinna both had certain mental illnesses, which would not work if allowed to develop without control, so she prescribed regulating drugs for them.

Of course, this method is only a temporary solution and not a cure for the disease. It is not much different from their usual venting therapy. Only they can cure themselves, and the specific medicine for this disease exists on the Red Soil Continent.

Chapter 160: The Great Snake's Way to Death Never Stops

"Master Seiya, this is the news from Wano Country today. You should take a look."

"Didn't I tell you that you can just handle it. You don't have to report everything."

The affairs of Wano Country are extremely complicated and most of them are trivial matters. If you handle them all yourself, you won't have anything else to do in the whole day.

So after a period of distribution, most of the affairs of Wano Country were divided into the hands of different cadres. While Kaido ran away to become a hands-off boss, he was also reducing his own burden.

Of course, the end result of this is that Asier's hair volume has decreased significantly, and he has started asking Naiqin to prescribe him an anti-hair loss prescription.

"Master Shengshou, this is a new situation. Someone is causing trouble in the mining factory. We are dealing with him. What do you think we should do in the end?"

There really is no secret worth digging out about Kin'emon, and his purpose of going to the Udon Mine has been discovered, but it is still unclear whether he will be executed or released, or thrown into the mine to mine.

"Give him a lesson and send him to work in the mines. He's so energetic and should be able to do a good job."

To Arceus, Kin'emon was just an ordinary little person, but a phone call made him change his mind.

A snail crawled out of its shell. After Sha Yinna answered the phone, a female voice sounded. It was the person that Baishou left in the wandering area.

"Big sister, the latest news is that Kurozumi Orochi is spreading the news that Kozuki Oden's retainer Kin'emon provoked the Beasts Pirates, so he will be executed by us soon. The news has almost spread throughout the Flower Capital."

After all, Kurozumi Orochi is the current acting shogun of Wano Country. He has more spies in Wano Country, and he soon learned about what happened in the Udon Mine.

Although his men failed to enter the Udon Mine, the younger brother who was looking for Kin'emon was still outside. Orochi had an elite ninja unit called Orochi Oniwabanshu under his command. They were very powerful, and it was easy for them to capture a small gangster.

After learning about this, Orochi was very happy, because the Beasts Pirates finally had a head-on conflict with Kozuki Oden, which was what he wanted to see most.

If Baijuu killed Kozuki's retainers, then things would become irreconcilable, so he wanted to further intensify the conflict with the goal of making the two sides fight directly.

He knew that this tactic wouldn't work against the Beasts Pirates, who clearly had a sane leadership.

His target is the other retainers of the Kozuki family.

If this news gets out, then those people from the Kozuki family will most likely go directly to jailbreak, causing a bigger conflict with the Beasts.

Although the style of the Beasts Pirates is different from what he expected, there is one thing: the Beasts Pirates will not allow anyone to confront them head-on. Once it comes to that point, the Beasts will not tolerate it even for their own face.

"Black Charcoal Snake..."

"Master Holy Beast, let me kill him. He who deceived you does not deserve to live in this world, let alone now..."

When Sha Yinna later learned the details, she almost rushed directly to the Flower Capital. Now, Kurozumi Orochi wants to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, which in her opinion is a way to death.

"Don't be impatient. He still has some value. The complete replacement of the ruling class of Wano Country depends entirely on him. However, this method is too naive."

"The news he spread..."

"The news was spread by Kurozumi Orochi, what does it have to do with us? It's just to let the people of Wano Country know that although we were brought in by Kurozumi Orochi, we are ourselves and not Orochi's thugs.

Sha Yinna, you go there in person, and don't do anything else. Just make sure that the other retainers of the Kozuki family cannot leave Jiuli. As long as they don't cause any trouble, we have the final say on how it ends."

"As you wish. What about Kin'emon?"

"Let him live. Quinn just happened to complain that there wasn't enough arable land. Doesn't the Kozuki family have a nice farm in Kuri? Let them use that as a token of atonement."

Kuri used to be a lawless place, but it returned to normal under the management of Kozuki Oden, so the Kozuki family has a deep influence there.

Because his retainers believed that the Beasts had evil intentions, they mobilized some people to resist the Beasts Pirates. This resulted in them sometimes not being able to find manpower on the farm in Kuri, and they had to recruit from other towns.

The farm that was chosen was an important industry in Jiuli, and many people worked there. If they gave up the job, their families would have to bear the cost.

Most beasts adopt a conciliatory policy towards ordinary people. As long as these people understand the benefits brought by beasts, some people will naturally change their views over time. At that time, the conflicts will no longer be external conflicts but family conflicts.

As more and more people accept the beasts, this contradiction will gradually disappear.
