One Piece: Starting with the enslavement of Wano Country!

Page 22

General - Kozuki Sukiyaki.

Lei Luo snorted coldly, tumbling his body as he swooped down towards the ground.

"Run! Get out of the way!"

The enormous body of the Teng Snake crashed down like a meteorite, its power terrifying. Even the strongest warriors, Shimotsuki Ushimaru and Hana no Hyōgoro, had to temporarily retreat from its edge.

The entire country of Wano seemed to tremble.

Unlike Kaido, who transformed into human form and crashed down, Raelo crashed down directly in his serpentine form.

Its terrifying size was no different from that of a meteorite falling from the sky.

The Tengshe's body smashed into a crater, instantly destroying the town below and sending dust billowing into the air.

Shimotsuki Gyuumaru and Hana no Hyōgoro cursed angrily and, without waiting for the smoke to dissipate, charged into the smoke with their swords drawn.

On the sword, jet-black Armament Haki flowed like dazzling cherry blossoms.

"I can also use advanced Armament Haki!"

Lei Luo used his halberd in his right hand to block the long sword that Shimotsuki Ushimaru was slashing down, while his left hand was covered in Armament Haki, and he directly grabbed the sword that Hana no Hyogoro was coming at him with great force.

(Don't ask where he pulled out the halberd.)

Lei Luo sneered, "Ha, that's it!"

Luffy's ultimate move, the "Chicken Feather Flowing Sakura," was achieved by using Conqueror's Haki and Devil Fruit awakening when he finally defeated Kaido.

Besides, it's not like if you use Ryuo (Advanced Armament Haki) others can't use Armament Haki, and it even broke through Kaido's defenses.

Hana no Hyogoro gripped his sword with both hands, using all his strength to try to pull the sword out of Dao Leiluo's hand, while Shimotsuki Ushimaru also desperately pressed the sword down in his hand.

A mocking smile appeared on Lei Luo's lips, and he suddenly released his grip.

Caught off guard, Hana no Hyogoro staggered backward.

With his right hand, he easily deflected Shimotsuki Ushimaru's sword with his halberd, then unleashed a slash that hurtled towards the two of them.

The two men quickly parried with their swords, but were forced back by the enormous impact of the strike.

The two men plowed four deep furrows in the ground with their four legs, exerting all their strength to propel their strike into the air.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"How could anyone be this strong!"

Shimotsuki Gyuuma and Hana no Hyōgoro blurted out, almost losing their voices.

They are already among the top warriors in the country, how could they possibly have such difficulty withstanding even a casual blow from someone else!

Lei Luo tilted his head, observing the two with great interest.

A person with a face almost identical to Zoro's, except with blue hair.

A burly man with fiery hair and a goatee, and blue vest-shaped tattoos adorned with pink flowers on his shoulders and back.

There's no need to guess who it is.

The samurai Shimotsuki Ushimaru, second only to Oden, and Hana no Hyogoro, the yakuza boss of the Flower Capital.

Kozuki Sukiyaki arrived quickly with the rest of the daimyo and samurai.

The samurai, wielding long swords, surrounded Lei Luo despite their fear.

Hiding behind a samurai, Kozuki Sukiyaki shouted, "Who are you? We, the people of Wano, have no enmity with you. Why are you slaughtering our citizens like this?"

Lei Luo smiled and said, "Shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking someone's identity? That would be polite."

Kozuki Sukiyaki's face stiffened. As the highest ruler of a country, this was the first time he had been told he was impolite.

But judging from the power of Lei Luo's attack just now, Wano Country is clearly no match for him.

Now is not the time to be self-important; the most urgent task is to get these uninvited guests out of Wano Country.

Kozuki Sukiyaki had no choice but to suppress his resentment. "I am the Shogun of Wano Country, Kozuki..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lei Luo suddenly sprang into action, wielding his halberd and breaking through the samurai's defenses, piercing Kozuki Sukiyaki through the heart with a single blow.

"You actually said it after I told you to!"

Chapter 34 The Desperate Retainers of Oden

Jiuli Daming Mansion.

Denjiro, Kikunojo, Kanjuro, Raizo, Kawamatsu, Inuarashi, Nekomamushi, and Izo all cowered here in fear.

They were either saved or taken in by Oden, and therefore had a fanatical worship of him, except for Kanjuro, who infiltrated the group.

Because they were either too young or of average strength, Oden did not choose to take them into battle when the dragon and snake took to the air!

Meanwhile, Queen and his pirates had already arrived at the scene.

The Beasts Pirates swept through Wano Country.

When cold weapons meet firearms, the samurai of Wano Country are powerless to resist.

Even though many samurai with flying slashes appeared, capable of cutting down cannonballs and bullets.

But don't forget, Quinn is also here!

Furthermore, the encouragement buffs from Captain Englararic and Mattitau were not something these warriors could handle.

"Hahaha, there are a few little mice hiding here!"

Quinn laughed wildly, then immediately fired a cannonball from the giant robot he was controlling.

This was something he developed over the course of a year, based on Vegapunk's blueprints and his own technological expertise.

The once-great Daming Prefecture was instantly razed to the ground, and flames soared into the sky!

Quinn sat in the robot's cockpit, looking at his masterpiece with satisfaction!

Suddenly, a slash cleaved through the ruins and flames.

Amidst the rubble and broken tiles, Kanjuro, holding a long sword with a brush tip attached, glared angrily: "You think you can kill us so easily? Not so easy!"

Having already assumed the role of an Oden retainer, Kanjuro frowned and whispered to Raizo beside him:

“Raizo, we are the eldest among us. With Lord Oden away, it is our duty to protect them.”

Raizo nodded slightly: "Of course!"

Kanjuro then said to Denjiro, who was standing to the side, "Raizo and I will hold them off here. Denjiro, you take them and leave this place quickly!"

Fourteen-year-old Denjiro panicked: "But..."

Before he could finish speaking, Kanjuro interrupted him: "No buts, you're the eldest besides the two of us, so they're in your hands."

"I understand," Denjiro replied through gritted teeth.

With such a dedicated demeanor, it's hard to associate Kanjuro with an undercover agent!

This movie star even dared to go into a deep frying pan with Oden!

Quinn's mocking voice rang out: "Have you figured out how to deal with us?"

Kanjuro and Raizo exchanged a glance and charged toward the Beasts Pirates in perfect unison.

At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Run!"

Denjiro hurriedly called to his friends, "Come with me!"

When he turned around, tears were streaming down his face!

Englararic raised an eyebrow at Raja (the user of the Tiger-Tiger Fruit) standing to the side: "Let's take them down first!"

Before Raja could reply, he had already transformed into his lion-man form and pounced on Kanjuro!

"Ha, then you're doomed!" Raja, not to be outdone, transformed into a tiger-man and charged at Raizo.

Ahar (the Horse-Horse Fruit user) chuckled and shook his head: "Why do these two have to compare everything?"

Matitao was also quite speechless. His brother and the tiger had been fighting each other ever since they met, and neither of them would give in to the other.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Denjiro leading several children and small animals running further and further away. Mattitau teased, "Ahar, if you don't chase after them, they'll get away!"

"Don't be ridiculous, how could you possibly escape from me!" Ahal laughed disdainfully.

With a neighing sound, Ahar transformed into a pure white steed, galloping off after Denjiro!

The white horse reached Denjiro, who was fleeing, in the blink of an eye.

Ahal gathered its strength in its hind legs and kicked Hesong with one hoof. The immense force of the white horse's hind hoof caused Hesong's head to explode like a watermelon in an instant!

Upon witnessing this scene, Denjiro and the others were filled with rage and roared in fury.

Hearing their cries of pain, Kanjuro and Raizo turned to look in the direction Kanjuro had fled.

With just this slight turn, Englararik and Raja seized the opportunity, their claws reaching for the two men's vital parts.

Fortunately, the two reacted quickly, retreating slightly at the last second to avoid the fatal blow.

But a large chunk of his flesh was also torn off by Englararic and Raja.

Kanjuro's chest was a bloody mess, staining his clothes red. Raizo's face was covered in blood, his expression ferocious.

Englararik and Raja disgustedly tossed aside the flesh and blood in their hands, cruel smiles on their faces: "Don't look around during the fight!"

After saying that, the lion and the tiger pounced on Kanjuro and Raizo again.

The white horse slowly turned around and said mockingly, "You lot, don't even think about running away from me!"

"You're asking for death!" Denjiro could no longer suppress his anger and drew his sword, charging towards Ahar.

Ahar, however, did not take this bespectacled, seemingly refined Denjiro seriously.

Just as he was about to reach him, Ahar's front body leaped high into the air, his hooves landing precisely on Denjiro's sword.

The terrifying force of the two hooves struck, and Denjiro's hand instantly split open, blood flowing out. He was then kicked away by Ahar, sword and all.

"Denjiro!"

Denjiro slowly rose, leaning on his sword, and shouted, "Don't worry about me, I'll deal with him, you all run!"

With his fists clenched so tightly they almost bled, he managed to utter a single word through gritted teeth: "Go!"

After saying that, he turned and ran in the opposite direction, with Kikunojo, Inuarashi, and Nekomamushi immediately following.

"I told you you couldn't escape!" Ahal spurred his hooves and was about to give chase.

Denjiro spread his arms wide and shouted, "If you want to kill them, kill me first!"

Ahal reverted to his beast form and sneered, "Believe it or not, even after I kill you, I can still catch up with them!"

"Believe it or not, you'll have to kill me first!" Denjiro charged at Ahar again, sword in hand.

"If you get away, I won't be able to explain it to the first mate!" Inside the robot's cockpit, Quinn, with a cigar in his mouth, adjusted the laser sights to conceal himself.

Matitau also raised his Desert Eagle and aimed it at Kikunojo.

The cannon rapidly charged, and the laser shot out towards Izang at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

As Yizang was running, a laser pierced his heart instantly. The laser continued its trajectory, exploding in the ground ahead.

Seeing a transparent hole appear in his brother's chest and him fall helplessly to the ground, Kikunojo, who was behind him, was about to go forward to help him up.

At that moment, the bullet fired by Mattitau pierced precisely through Kikunojo's forehead.

The two brothers fell straight down.

Young Inuarashi and Nekomamushi were terrified to see their playmates, whom they had been playing with just yesterday, lying dead in front of them. They knelt on the ground, stunned and at a loss for what to do.

Kanjuro and Raizo dared not be distracted any longer. Hearing the commotion, they could only shout:

"No matter what happens, run! Every person who can escape is a lifesaver. Lord Oden will avenge us."

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi were brought back to their senses by the shouts. Suppressing their immense grief, they slowly got up, turned around, and ran away without looking back.

The members of the Beasts Pirates seemed to have collectively gone blind this time, acting as if they hadn't seen the two of them at all.

After the two had run far away, Queen leisurely took out a Den Den Mushi: "Kuru, keep an eye on them." (A user of the Hawk-Hawk Fruit.)

In the sky, an eagle was circling, but its eyes were fixed on Inuarashi and Nekomamushi on the ground.

S: It's not that the Nine Heroes I wrote are too weak, but that they are too small now.
