Onmyoji of the Grand Line

In the original story, in order to prevent anyone from seizing his position as shogun, Kurozumi Orochi had his men eliminate all the other branches of the Kurozumi clan. Because of this, in Kaido's eyes, Kurozumi Orochi was nothing more than a puppet, essentially a collaborator, as Kurozumi Orochi's actions were tantamount to weakening his own power.

It's really too much to call it weak; such weakness is simply not worth mentioning.

"Do it!"

"After tonight."

"The owner of the Flower Capital is about to change."

Seimei's expression was indifferent, his eyes seemingly devoid of any emotion. He simply stood with his hands behind his back, gazing quietly into the distance. Kurozumi Musashi respectfully replied, "Yes, Young Master!"

……

Under the cover of night!

The entire Flower Capital remained a scene of revelry and celebration, especially with the courtesans parading through the streets, each one adorned in their finest attire. Everyone was contributing to making the Flower Capital appear even more prosperous. This was the prosperity of the Flower Capital, and as the center of Wano Country, its prosperity was only to be expected.

not to mention!

Today is a big day. The Leopard Group is a Yakuza organization created by Hyogoro Hana no Hyogoro. Apart from Kuri, its influence extends throughout Wano Country. In terms of numbers, there are 200 members in the Flower Capital and thousands in other places, making it a huge Yakuza organization with four to five thousand members.

Today is the annual gathering for the Leopard Group. Not only will the Leopard Group's executives from all over Wano Country attend, but they will also bring all their personnel to participate in the banquet. Even the Shogun will attend this banquet. Over time, it has evolved into a large-scale banquet for the entire Flower Capital.

after all.

Hyogoro Hana no Hyogoro holds a very high position in the Flower Capital. This chivalrous hero, although the leader of a yakuza organization, robs the rich to help the poor and has a great reputation. As evidenced by Kin'emon's belief that Hyogoro Hana no Hyogoro's reputation alone is enough to gather thousands of samurai to fight Kaido, it is clear just how outstanding Hyogoro Hana no Hyogoro's reputation is.

At this moment.

The Leopard Group's headquarters was bustling with activity, with everyone gathered in small groups drinking and sharing their joyful stories.

"Hahaha~~~"

Omasa of the Rabbit Bowl let out a hearty laugh and said, "Boss, I've heard! The Prince who was causing trouble back then is now the Daimyo of Kuri! He's really outstanding! That chaotic region, the Prince managed to govern it so perfectly!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Hakumai's Tsunagorou agreed, saying, "I really didn't expect it! The Prince who caused such a ruckus throughout Wano Country back then is actually so outstanding. No wonder he's the Shogun's son!"

"Let me tell you!"

Nozomi's Mitabe, on the other hand, said frankly, "Hasn't His Highness always been so outstanding? He used to be incredibly powerful! Don't you all acknowledge his unique personal charm?"

"Hehehe~~~"

As the only girl, Queen Bell shook her head with a light laugh and said, "Your Highness's personal charm is truly outstanding! The kind of personal charm that makes women intoxicated and men submit."

"Hahaha~~~"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Omasa of Udon, Tsunagoro of Hakumai, Ocho of Ringo, and Mitabe of Nozomi—these four are the four top executives under Hana no Hyogoro. Each of them is responsible for a different area of ​​the Yakuza. It can be said that Hana no Hyogoro controls the entire Yakuza of Wano Country. In addition, Hana no Hyogoro is a retainer of Kozuki Sukiyaki. To put it bluntly, all sorts of people are under the control of Kozuki Sukiyaki.

"You guys!"

Hana no Hyōgor looked at his subordinates and shook his head with a light smile. However, thinking of the changes in Kozuki Oden, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. His young master had finally undergone a complete transformation. This was the young master of the Kozuki General!

"Um?!"

"what?!"

"wrong!"

Everyone suddenly stood up. They keenly sensed that something was wrong. Although today was the annual joyous occasion and a grand banquet, they certainly wouldn't have drunk too much like this, since the Kozuki Sukiyaki hadn't arrived yet.

only!

It was far too quiet; the entire banquet had become eerily silent, which was completely unexpected. Everyone's aura had become unusually sharp, as they keenly sensed that something was amiss. They looked around, their expressions grave, all pondering what was going on.

Creak! ! !

The door was slowly pushed open, and a tall figure in a kimono walked out, exuding calmness and tranquility, holding a katana that radiated a crimson killing intent.

Demon Sword Princess!

Yaodao-hime glanced at everyone present, then fixed her gaze on Hana no Hyogoro, and said indifferently, "Hana no Hyogoro."

"Your Excellency is?!"

Hana no Hyōgor's eyes were sharp enough as he stared at the Demon Sword Princess. Almost instinctively, he gripped the long sword that was placed to the side. He could already sense that the opponent's strength was astonishing, even terrifying. This was definitely not a joke.

"Then there's no mistake!"

Yaodaoji took a step forward, a sharp light appearing in her eyes. The fierce, cold light that swept across the room brought with it a chilling glint.

"Hanazuki-sword style·Bow down with anger!"

"The ominous blade!"

Hana no Hyōgor suddenly attacked, slowly swinging his sword before moving at full speed in an instant, leaving behind unknown flames. He faced the demon sword princess's ominous blade, which seemed to reap souls.

"Boss!"

"Old 852104278 is big!"

"You should think about yourselves!"

As Daizheng and the other three were shouting "733!", suddenly, four figures rushed in. It was the Tenjaku F4. Now, each of them had broken through their own limits. The strength of the Tenjaku F4 was by no means weak. Each of them had the strength of a brigadier general. With such strength, the power they could unleash was beyond doubt.

Crackling!

A fierce battle instantly erupted between the two sides. During this battle, everyone in the Leopard Group was being slaughtered in the courtyard by the Ghost Soldiers, who acted like emotionless killing machines.

"damn it!"

"What on earth are these guys?"

"Monster!"

"hateful!"

Everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief, their voices filled with resentment and roars. The Leopard Group fought back with knives, but they were no match for the Oni Hero, who had perfectly absorbed the Kurotan Clan's legacy, was proficient in both types of Haki, and possessed terrifying power.

They were utterly worthless trash, completely slaughtered garbage. From beginning to end, they were utterly powerless to fight back. The entire Leopard Group only needed to obediently wait for their deaths.

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Blood dripped slowly as Seimei walked step by step into the courtyard strewn with corpses. Inside the room, four of Hana no Hyōgor's subordinates—Ōmasa, Tsunagoro, Acho, and Mitabe—had all fallen to the ground. Only Hana no Hyōgor himself remained, struggling to stay upright.

His strength was quite good, reaching the level of a Yonko Vice-President. At his peak, Hana no Hyōgor was outstanding. Unfortunately, his opponent was Yoto Hime, and under the powerful and exquisite attacks of that katana, death was the only outcome!

"Kill!"

Chapter 79: One Night, Taking Control of the Flower Capital

"General!"

"Please be careful!"

"Hehehe~~~"

Hearing Fukurokuju's words, Kozuki Sukiyaki waved his hand and said, "Fukurokuju, there's no need to be so nervous. Don't you know about my relationship with Hyogoro? Don't worry! I attend the Leopard Group's banquet every year, and this year is no exception!"

"Yes!"

Fukurokuju bowed his head respectfully. As the leader of the Oniwabanshu, Fukurokuju was quite capable. He was actually Raizo's nemesis. Although he couldn't say that his overall strength was absolutely formidable, he was outstanding in assassination and intelligence gathering.

creak!

Kozuki Sukiyaki pushed open the gate to the Leopard Group's courtyard with ease, but the next moment, his expression changed. He smelled a strong stench of blood, and his face instantly turned ugly. He almost instinctively wanted to back away.

"General Kozuki!"

"Please don't move!"

As the faint voice rang out, Kozuki Sukiyaki looked at the figure that appeared beside him, his face turning extremely ugly. However! After so many years, he immediately knew what he should do at this moment.

Kozuki Sukiyaki, accompanied by Fukurokuju, continued into the courtyard, where the corpses of the Leopard Group lay scattered haphazardly. A total of 4200 people had all fallen to the ground.

Besides!

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Accompanied by the sound of blood dripping onto the ground, the Ghost Soldiers, each a figure resembling a grim reaper, stood silently here, seemingly waiting for everything to happen, without making any movement; they were pure killing machines.

"Whoo~~~"

Exhaling a slight breath, Kozuki Sukiyaki maintained a calm expression and said, "Who are you! You should know very well what the price you would have to pay for attacking Hana no Hyogoro in the Flower Capital. You should also understand that even if you attacked me, it would be completely meaningless. Kuri, Hakumai, Nozomi, Udon, Suzuko."

"The five daimyo are launching an attack. They have a total force of nearly 150,000 men. You should know very well that with such power, what you are doing is utterly meaningless."

As expected of the shogun of Wano Country, every word Kozuki Sukiyaki uttered seemed to be an admonition against doing something foolish, but it also told the other party that if they made a move, the price they would have to pay would be terrifying, even unbearable.

creak!

"please!"
