What, aren't you annoyed now? Where's your Conqueror's Haki? Did it stop working?
Despite Kalifa's gaze, Chika remained unfazed; after all, he was an Uchiha.
Anyone from the Uchiha clan, regardless of anything else, is undeniably good-looking.
Especially in the world of One Piece, compared to most wildly grown men, the Uchiha clan's looks are absolutely on a level of subversion.
Just as the two were playing around, someone shouted,
"The courtesan is on her street parade!"
The crowd that had been somewhat crowded dispersed immediately, standing on both sides of the street, looking expectantly towards the intersection.
Chiga remained unmoved and continued strolling around with Kalifa in tow.
Kalifa looked at Chiga, who showed no reaction, and asked curiously,
"Boss, aren't you interested in this courtesan? A woman who can become a courtesan must be very beautiful!"
"It's just a charade. Do you see those people over there?"
Chika chuckled a few times and pointed to a group of people standing in a corner.
Unlike the excited crowd on the street, those people were all dressed in tattered clothes, with ugly faces and hatred in their eyes.
Kalifa could also see that the group's emotions were obviously off, but she still didn't understand what Chiga meant, so she could only look at Chiga with a puzzled expression.
Chiga explained,
"Those guys were the big spenders from before. They poured all their money into that courtesan, and now they're just starving."
"The top brother on the list? What's that?"
"They are the ones who spend the most money to woo the most courtesans."
"Oh, so the boss means this courtesan is just a product of hype, and her looks are actually average?"
"You can't say that. She's probably quite good-looking, otherwise no one would be promoting her."
"I see, but how come the boss knows so much? Did you also pay him to do that?"
"of course not!"
Chapter 121 Hiyori's Thoughts
Accompanied by the ringing of bells, the most admired courtesan of Wano Country appeared at the end of the street.
The woman had a beautiful face and long, emerald-colored hair, which was tied up in a high bun and adorned with gold hairpins. She wore an extremely luxurious pink floral kimono and a pair of very high wooden clogs.
She placed her hand on the shoulder of the person next to her who was holding a parasol. Because her shoes were too high, she walked very slowly and looked very dignified.
Kalifa sized up the courtesan and commented.
"She is indeed very pretty, and has a great temperament."
Chiga glanced at it and confirmed that the courtesan was indeed Kozuki Oden's daughter, now using the alias Komurasaki, whose real name was actually Kozuki Hiyori.
Chiga wasn't interested in Hiyori Kozuki at all; compared to the other princesses, Shirahoshi, Vivi, and Rebecca, she was utterly worthless.
The so-called twenty years of forbearance in the anime just involved her hugging and cuddling with some old men and giant snakes, while she was doing quite well as a geisha.
But besides dealing with men, she didn't learn anything else, and in the end, she even stepped forward to make her presence known.
But it must be said that she is quite good-looking, probably because she inherited her looks from her mother, Kozuki Toki.
As for her brother, Momo no Boar, he is exactly the same as his stupid pig father, both in terms of stupidity and appearance.
Thinking of Momonosuke, a murderous glint flashed in Chiga's eyes. This guy had to die; there was no need for a reason to kill him.
Although the killing intent appeared only briefly, a terrifying pressure emanated from Qianhe.
The ordinary people on the street all groaned in unison, their knees buckling as they knelt on the ground.
Hiyori's face paled slightly, but thankfully the guard next to her supported her and prevented her from falling to the ground.
The guard seemed to be putting on a brave face, his body trembling uncontrollably. This was only a very weak wisp of Qian He's pressure, lasting for a brief moment.
Kalifa had developed a certain level of resistance from spending so much time with Chiga, so she didn't feel too uncomfortable.
But she still sensed the fleeting killing intent in Chiga's eyes just now, and she asked,
"Boss, what happened to you just now? Is Kaido nearby?"
"It's nothing, I was just thinking about some disgusting guy."
Chiga was also somewhat helpless. Momonosuke was really disgusting; just thinking about him made her emotions fluctuate.
Upon hearing that there were actually people who disgusted Chiga to this extent, Kalifa continued to ask.
"Boss, that guy's still alive? Is he really that powerful?"
"No, you could say it's very weak."
"Oh, someone this weak doesn't need the boss to do anything personally, just send someone to get rid of him."
Carly spoke in a cold tone. In her opinion, offending Chiga was already a capital offense, let alone someone with no strength. Did such a person even have the right to exist?
Looking at Kalifa's cold expression, Chika couldn't help but reach out and pull her into his arms, saying with a smile,
"There's no need for that. He's just an insignificant person. It's just a small matter."
"He's in Wano Country?"
"Yes and no, he's hiding in a very safe place, but I have a way to find him."
"Ah."
Kalifa responded and nestled in Chiga's arms without saying a word. This was a rare moment of peace and quiet; she shouldn't dwell on such troublesome matters.
On the street, Hiyori Kozuki had also calmed down from the oppressive aura she had just experienced. With a solemn expression, she scanned the kneeling crowd around her, and Chika and Kalifa came into her view.
There was no way around it; the two of them were already exceptionally good-looking and had outstanding charisma. Now that everyone around them was kneeling on the ground, they were the only ones who remained unaffected, still hugging and cuddling, looking incredibly sweet.
The oppressive aura from just now was most likely emitted by one of those two people. Hiyori squinted at the two, quickly ruling out the possibility that it was the woman.
Because the woman was lying in the man's arms with her eyes closed, she looked harmless.
If Hiyori knew that the seemingly harmless woman in her eyes had just threatened to have her brother killed, I wonder if she would still think the same way.
As for that man, Hiyori could tell he was extraordinary at first glance, especially his peculiar eyes, which gave off an inexplicable sense of pressure just by looking at them, a feeling that was very similar to what she had felt just now!
In fact, there are very few people on the high seas who don't recognize Chiga's Rinnegan. You could say that seeing those eyes is enough to know Chiga's identity.
However, Wano Country is a closed country with little contact with the World Government, and very little news from the outside world comes in, so Hiyori doesn't know what those eyes mean.
Looking at Qianhe's youthful face, she couldn't help but think...
"When did such a terrifyingly strong young warrior appear in Wano Country?"
Although she had little contact with the outside world, she had met Kaido, who was a top-tier powerhouse in the entire world, and her father, Kozuki Oden. She was no stranger to the aura of such powerful figures.
Although the oppressive aura just now was only a fleeting moment, its intensity was already on par with the two people she remembered, and she even vaguely felt that it surpassed them.
However, the owner of that oppressive aura looked far too young, and she found it hard to believe that this suddenly appearing person possessed power greater than her father and Kaido.
What purpose could someone with such power have in appearing in Wano Country? She didn't believe that such a person had come here just to have fun with women.
If he's an enemy, then he should be with Kaido, but she's never seen such a powerful person around Kaido.
As long as he's not with Kaido, she absolutely has to win over such a powerful figure.
Although the woman in his arms was also extremely beautiful, she was a courtesan! This was a huge plus for some men.
With her beauty and status as a courtesan, she was confident that she could win Chiga's favor.
Then she'll use the same methods she used to squeeze money out of those big shots on the leaderboard, and maybe even grit her teeth and pay a little more to get Qianhe to do something for her.
She didn't expect Chika to be able to defeat Kaido; as long as Orochi could be defeated, it would be a huge win!
Twenty years, as her mother had said, was far too long. Now, even with the slightest glimmer of hope, Hiyori didn't want to wait any longer.
Thinking of this, she said to the guard,
"Go and invite those two people standing over there. Tell them I'm inviting them to a banquet!"
The guard, sent by Denjiro to protect Hiyori, hesitated and said in a low voice, sounding somewhat embarrassed.
"Today we're going to Orochi's banquet. Will this displease him and affect our plans to restore our kingdom?"
"No, Kaido isn't here right now. If we can recruit that man, maybe we can use him to take down Orochi ahead of time!"
"But how do we recruit him?"
"I have my own way."
Looking at Hiyori's confident face, the guard smiled bitterly. He understood what Hiyori meant, but he had a premonition that Hiyori would fail this time.
If that man was indeed the source of that oppressive aura, could a woman really attract such a powerful figure simply by virtue of her beauty and status as a courtesan?
Not everyone is like those big shots on the leaderboard or Orochi!
Chapter 122 Running some official business, and incidentally eliminating Tao
Hiyori's guards approached Chiga and Kalifa, bowed respectfully, and said...
"My master is going to a banquet at General Orochi's residence and would like to invite you two to come along. Would you be willing?"
Kalifa didn't say anything, but looked up at Chiga. If Chiga was interested, she could go with her.
Chiga thought it would be good to go. After all, Orochi was a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, it was just a waste to use him.
Moreover, his name, combined with his fruit, always reminds Chiga of a certain rascal snake. Of course, the two are completely different in appearance and personality.
If that Kurozumi Orochi doesn't open his eyes later, then he'll have another decent Devil Fruit added to his collection.
Thinking of this, Qianhe smiled and said,
“Great! Let’s go visit the General’s Mansion and see how it differs from the General’s Office.”
After saying that, Chika pulled Kalifa toward Hiyori Kozuki.
The guard behind him looked puzzled. The general's office? What's that?
Hiyori, who was walking on the street, was overjoyed to see that her target had actually come over.
