The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen

Kyoshiro's enormous topknot looked incredibly flamboyant, swaying back and forth, and his gait was equally arrogant. You'd never guess that this guy was the head of the underworld in the Flower Capital by day and the righteous thief Ushimitsu Kozo by night.

Over the next few days, Kyoshiro would come to the clinic every now and then.

This guy had a bad reputation; once he sat down, no more patients came to his door.

Weiwei was still waiting for Lao Fan's boat to pick her up. With nothing to do, she could only read medical books to enrich herself.

To make better use of the Devil Fruit's abilities, basic medical skills are still necessary.

"A battle took place on Onigashima a few days ago. The entire island was shaken, and even Wano Country was shaken a couple of times. Did you know about this?" Kyoshiro's huge topknot trembled twice as he swung his arms and asked in a particularly exaggerated manner.

Weiwei continued reading her book, completely ignoring him.

Kyoshiro muttered to himself, "I heard there was a huge riot on Onigashima, and many of the Beasts Pirates died. Lord Kaido even came back specifically for that..."

He lowered his voice: "You did it, didn't you? Why would you do it?"

After several days of testing each other and observing with her Observation Haki, Vivi was now quite certain that the guy in front of her was a samurai of Kozuki Oden. She admired his method of infiltrating the enemy camp and then rising to the top, because, strictly speaking, Vivi herself was also that kind of person, so she somewhat agreed with him.

However... in her mind, Kozuki Oden was equated with an idiot, so she never expected that he would have such a smart subordinate.

Both sides share a common enemy. Whether it's taking care of Tama and Tsuru, or returning a year later to save Yamato, Vivi needs to maintain a certain level of influence in Wano Country. At least when she returns next year, she needs someone to provide her with some intelligence. In order to cooperate, she decides to reveal some information at this time.

"If I told you I was looking for a Den Den Mushi, you definitely wouldn't believe me, right?"

"I do not believe."

"Okay, actually there was a boy who wanted to challenge Kaido, and I was helping to keep watch. When we got there, we found that Kaido wasn't home, so we ended up fighting Kaido's 'son' in a rather confused way."

"Then why did you come back?"

Vivi looked at him strangely: "Can't I wait for someone here?"

Kyoshiro felt she wasn't telling the truth: "You're quite a famous person outside, aren't you?"

Weiwei shook her head repeatedly: "A nobody, not worth mentioning."

Kyoshiro felt he had figured out enough about both sides, so he took the initiative to reveal one of his own identities.

"You know I work for General Orochi, right? I have a lot of gold coins, but... Wano Country is too poor in resources to exchange the money for something more valuable. Are you interested in making a deal with me?"

He maintained his persona as Orochi Shogun's personal money changer. Even if Vivi were to inform on him now, it would only be a charge of embezzlement, which wouldn't be considered a serious crime in Wano Country, a country known for its banditry.

Vivi carefully examined the other party. As a trusted subordinate of General Orochi, Kyoshiro had some knowledge of Kaido's whereabouts.

"...The daiban gold from Wano Country? Hmm... Daiban gold cannot be circulated outside the country, but there is still demand for gold outside. Tell me, what do you need?"

"Warships, artillery, food, clothes, anything is fine." Kyoshiro's narrowed eyes were full of determination.

Weiwei was amused by his "I want them all" attitude.

Alabasta certainly has these things, but they are too far away to be allocated.

Fortunately, she had other options.

Just in time for Lao Fan's arrival, everything was completed without any delays, and I can give Lao Fan another chance to shine.

Vivi asked, "I do have what you want, and as much as you need. I'm just worried you don't have enough gold... Does your 'General Orochi' mind doing business with the World Government? By the way, you know about the World Government, right?"

Kyoshiro suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, you're from the World Government?"

Weiwei smiled without saying a word.

The World Government needs to open the gates of Wano Country, Van Gundy needs more merit to climb the ranks, Kyoshiro needs to turn his gold into resources, and Vivi needs to maintain her influence in Wano Country. It's a win-win situation for all parties.

Chapter 104 Leaving Wano Country

"Whatever you need, the World Government can provide it," Vivi said confidently.

Alabasta's goods can't be transported here, but the World Government is different; if they want to, they can definitely transport them here.

"Alright, I need ten cannons and a thousand muskets..."

“No problem.” Vivi didn’t even think about it. The World Government had plenty of weapons and didn’t care about the price. She and Lao Fan could make a small profit by acting as middlemen.

Two weeks later, a warship without any flags quietly landed in this closed country. Weiwei introduced Lao Fan and Kuang Shilang to each other, and the two sides completed their first transaction.

Before they could even drive away Kaido, the wolf, they've introduced the World Government, the tiger. Is this a good thing for Wano Country? This isn't a question Vivi needs to consider, nor is it even a question Kyoshiro needs to consider. The people of Wano Country are starving to death. Given that no one can defeat Kaido, introducing the World Government's influence is a last resort.

Helping Kyoshiro wasn't an obligation; the other party paid a large amount of gold.

Kyoshiro also hinted that he would help take care of Tsuru and Tama at the clinic.

Weiwei wanted Ayu to go with her, but the little girl couldn't bear to leave the villagers of Bianli Village and Jianlou Village, Master Feiche of Tiangou Mountain, and the land that had nurtured her, so she had to give up.

She taught all her medical skills to Ayu and left behind a lot of notes. In her opinion, being a doctor was better than being a pirate or a seductive female ninja, right?

With those big, fat sumo wrestlers protecting her in the open and Kyoshiro taking care of her in the shadows, even though the Flower Capital wasn't exactly peaceful, she felt safe enough.

Another two weeks later, Vivi finally returned to Torrance Town.

As soon as she got off the ship, she ran towards the hotel: "Karu!"

"Quack quack!!" The duck threw down its cards, rushed out of the hotel, and gave Vivi a warm hug!

After thanking the hotel staff for taking care of Karu, Vivi secretly boarded the warship with the duck. With everything done, it was time to go home.

With the ducks around, Weiwei felt very confident.

She began a Yamato-style training method, which involved "weighted" training while wearing sea stone handcuffs!

The Seastone handcuffs in Wano Country vary in purity. The Seastone in the Yamato handcuffs is indeed not very pure, and it can even be said that it is far inferior to the Seastone handcuffs used by the Navy to imprison Devil Fruit users. Vivi asked Old Man to find her three pairs of handcuffs according to their purity for training.

"Ouch!" As soon as the handcuffs were put on, even just one hand, she felt extremely weak all over. She didn't even have the strength to draw her sword, let alone "Wei Guo".

Wearing handcuffs, Vivi took two unsteady steps to the left, then felt a buzzing in her head. The quacking of the duck Karu seemed very far away. She had no strength at all, and her legs were swaying wildly.

Thinking of Yamato's strength, she gritted her teeth and took three more steps to the right.

She held on for a minute, then weakly said to the duck, "Karu, quick, quick, untie me..."

After being untied, she quickly returned to normal and stared at the duck for a while.

Weiwei recalled her weakened state just now, still feeling lingering fear: "...I'm not feeling well today, let's not practice for now, let's play Gomoku instead!"

After realizing that her willpower was no match for that of the "real man" Yamato, she gave up this training method.

It's too inefficient and a waste of time. You'd be better off practicing Haki or developing your Devil Fruit abilities.

Yamato's handcuffs are just low-purity seastone handcuffs. Even if they were replaced with high-purity seastone handcuffs used by the Navy, they probably wouldn't work.

Of course, she didn't know whether it was truly impossible...

Old Van's ship flew the World Government's flag. The World Government's reputation was so great that ordinary pirate ships along the way were unwilling to provoke them. They left the Kingdom of Prodens and entered the Kingdom of Dressrosa without much effort.

Old Fan couldn't escort her all the way home, after all, in public, Old Fan still had a mission with CP9, and the Desert Princess wasn't on the crew list.

It's already quite good that they were able to send her to Dressrosa, where transportation is readily available.

Vivi and Lao Fan's relationship cannot be made public; she must find a boat herself to cross the Red Earth and return to Whiskey Hill.

"Ugh... this is really troublesome..." Changing ships and going back and forth like this is very inconvenient for her. If she could just hide in Whiskey Mountain and never come out again, that would be fine. But she still has to come to rescue the "real man" Yamato, which means she has to make another round trip.

She looked at Karu the duck, and Karu looked at her too.

"We should go find Laboon the whale! Laboon must be a very, very big whale. Next time we come back, we can live inside Laboon's belly and cross the Red Line from Fish-Man Island!"

He didn't understand the specifics, but Karu the duck was very happy to have another little brother. He raised his right wing and quacked twice.

Vivi started thinking about how to subdue Laboon. If she wanted Laboon to come with her, she would have to rescue Brook, who had eaten the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit). Brook should still be with Thriller Bark.

To rescue this "person," one would undoubtedly have to face another member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria, who ate the Shadow-Shadow Fruit.

Vivi no longer felt the same fear of the Seven Warlords of the Sea as she did at the beginning of her transmigration. Gecko Moria's fighting spirit, conviction, and combat ability were among the weakest of the Seven Warlords. In a one-on-one fight, she didn't think she would lose. However, he had the numbers; a bunch of him ganging up on her, what could she do? She only had a timid duck on her side...

Should she call Ace over to help? She quickly shook her head. Ace probably wouldn't refuse, but that guy was involved in far too much trouble.

Vivi quickly thought of the "Captain John's Treasure" that she had tricked Bucky the Joker into believing. It would be difficult for her to fight it alone, but it would be much easier to fight it with the large and powerful Baroque Works. The workshop had been established for several years and had recently expanded its staff. Organizing a treasure hunt-themed team building activity was not unreasonable, was it?

Simply making things up won't work. Saying there are clues to Captain John's treasure on Thriller Bark? Nobody will believe you! You can't even get past Nicole Robin; you need solid evidence.

After thinking it over several times, she decided that she had to go to the horror ship. She didn't need to investigate in depth; she just needed to take a picture of Captain John, who had turned into a zombie, and then she could hand in the mission to her plastic best friend.

The photograph was a crucial clue, confirming Captain John's location. Now she could happily wait for Baroque Works to organize a team-building activity, since the poor, weak, and helpless Ms. Wednesday was no match for the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Chapter 105 Charlotte Lola (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader Godmsl)

The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen, Chapter 105: Charlotte Lola. Years ago, the Kingdom of Dressrosa was occupied by Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Vivi strongly suspects that this was Crocodile's role model. As a great pirate and former Celestial Dragon nobleman, Doflamingo successfully seized the throne of Dressrosa through force and intrigue.

If Gecko Moria is the weakest of the Seven Warlords, then Donquixote Doflamingo is the strongest. This guy possesses all three types of Haki, an awakened Devil Fruit ability, and impressive physical skills. He has almost no weaknesses in terms of personality, strength, intelligence, and influence.

Most importantly, it seems he has a grudge against Vivi...

Nicole Robin and Ace both love wearing cowboy hats, and now Vivi has also discovered the benefits of this type of hat. One aspect is that it makes her face look smaller. Wearing a wide-brimmed cowboy hat with the brim slightly pulled down to cover half of her face, she is completely unrecognizable to strangers.

After deciding to search for Captain John, she walked quietly with Caru through the streets of Dressrosa.

After eating the Devil Fruit, she became a bit arrogant, but she lost a lot of her fangs after being hit by a macho man's spiked club. Then she was scared again after being cornered under the bed by her macho father. Now she has regained her "steady" mindset.

With the second-generation Kitetsu and Hanashu hanging from her waist, she was dressed as a dual-wielding swordsman, her lazy gaze occasionally sweeping over the toy soldiers in the streets and alleys.

She didn't believe the World Government and the Navy were unaware that Doflamingo had turned citizens into puppet soldiers, but in order to maintain the so-called balance, a group of people turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.

Justice? Dressrosa doesn't have that.

She snorted. In fact, Vivi often agreed with Bello Betty's revolutionary army theories. The world was really too bad. The revolutionary army had no goal or program, but it provided some help to the people in resisting tyranny.

I wonder if the uninhibited woman who never buttoned her clothes managed to bring the Landoruff Theatre Troupe to the side of the revolutionary army.

"Ah!—My wallet?!" A loud shout suddenly came from ahead.

Then a woman with an extremely burly figure, pink double braids, bright red lips, and a large face stood there, looking around.

It's more accurate to describe a woman as robust rather than fat.

Vivi looked around. She knew about the dwarfs in Dressrosa and remembered Zoro's sword being stolen, but she hadn't actually seen any dwarfs before. She could only say that these guys were incredibly fast.

She forgot the specific reason, but it was probably that the dwarves and humans in Dressrosa had an agreement that anything taken by the dwarves, whether it was a package in an inn or a person's belongings, would be considered "lost" on an official level. According to popular belief, these items were stolen by fairies.

We cannot judge the little people by human moral and legal standards. Stealing? They don't have the concept of stealing; they believe they are helping travelers "reduce their burden."

Vivi wanted to help, but she couldn't find any trace of the dwarves.

She went over to comfort the burly woman: "Are you alright? Did you lose anything important? Those 'fairies' seem to live on a remote island north of Dressrosa. If you want to get your money back, you could try going there..."
