Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

The Beasts Pirates have been plundering Wano Country for nearly twenty years, and have secretly conducted countless arms deals with the World Government and many other forces. The total amount of Berries they have earned over the years may not even reach this figure.

After a long while, Yamato finally raised his head blankly and looked at Arn, asking, "This...is this real? No...you're not lying to me again, are you?"

Yaen smiled helplessly and said.

"This document was signed three months ago, and that 100 billion pegories has probably been almost spent by now."

Immediately afterwards, Yan opened the subsequent documents in front of Yamato, most of which were reports on the progress of construction in various parts of Wano Country.

Schools sprang up one after another, hospitals appeared on the land of Wano Country, and the numerous reservoirs and dams brought tears to Yamato's eyes...

In Wano Country, many of the poorest people not only struggle to satisfy their hunger, but often they can't even get a sip of clean water.

More importantly, Yamato saw in the photos attached to the documents a kind of happy smile that was almost unseen among ordinary people in the past.

Their clothes may not be particularly beautiful or luxurious, but their happy and radiant smiles are undeniably genuine.

'Are those...the civilians now ruled by the revolutionary army genuinely happy?'

Yann continued in a calm tone.

"In the war I am in control, it is true that the Navy and the Revolutionary Army destroyed the most prosperous Flower Capital, but just as a whale falls and all things are born, without the destruction of the Flower Capital, the rest of Wano Country could never have become truly prosperous."

"The arrival of the Revolutionary Army, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Navy has brought entirely new things and knowledge to Wano Country, where time has almost stood still for nearly eight hundred years..."

At this point, Yann paused, then turned to Yamato and spoke earnestly.

"The true opening of Yamato to the world is not simply lifting the isolation policy and allowing Wano Country to engage in trade with the outside world."

"Perhaps it's not obvious yet, and many changes are happening quietly, but... this is the true opening of Wano Country."

Yamato stared intently at the documents spread out in front of her, her beautiful amber eyes seemingly churning with countless emotions.

Seeing that Yamato hadn't reacted for a long time, Yan couldn't help but reach out and lift Yamato's chin, making Yamato look away from the documents and turn to look at him, and then asked.

"By fulfilling your wish in this way, have I kept my original promise?"

Yamato blinked slightly, then subconsciously looked away and whispered in response, "Hmm..."

"So, Yamato, do you still intend to expel and overthrow the Revolutionary Army? Do you hate the war vortex I brought to Wano Country?" Yamato asked softly.

"For the sake of those 100 billion Berries, I...I'll reluctantly forgive you..." Yamato stammered.

Yann raised an eyebrow slightly and continued to ask.

"So...would you be willing to continue traveling with me? The Wano Country plan is not truly over yet. In order to deal with the threat originating from the World Government, I need your strength, Yamato."

Under Arn's gaze, Yamato, whose face was turned to the side, moved his mouth slightly, but no one could make out what he said.

"Huh?" Yann.

"fool……"

Yamato's chest heaved again, then, blushing, she closed her eyes and shouted at Arn, "You bastard, let me go!"

"Ok?"

Yann was slightly taken aback and asked subconsciously.

"You haven't even said whether you agree or not? If you're unwilling, then even if it's a bit of a regret, knowing all my secrets, I can only..."

[Chapter 633. Negotiations End]

At this point, looking at Yamato in front of him with his eyes closed, cheeks flushed, and his gradient-colored hair cascading over his shoulders, Arn paused involuntarily.

Even though the levels of alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase in Yaen's body had been modified to have the ability to quickly break down large amounts of alcohol after drinking a whole jar of liquor at once, Yaen's body still suffered considerable damage.

Somewhat...drunk!

This caused Ahn's previously firm belief that if Yamato became an enemy, then she would be completely eliminated, and a sense of leniency began to emerge in her heart.

Just then, Yamato opened his amber eyes, which sparkled as he looked at Arn, who was standing close to him, and asked.

"Ya'en, do I really know your secret? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Somewhat tipsy, Arn subconsciously assumed that Yamato was referring to the 100 billion Berries invested in Wano Country, and after shaking his head slightly, he replied.

"Of course, your eyes can bear witness to everything..."

The next moment, Yamato leaned forward slightly, and his warm lips silenced Arn's next words, causing Arn's eyes to widen involuntarily.

'What is this idiot doing?!'

By the time Arn's alcohol-numbed consciousness returned to normal, he felt something enter his mouth. The familiar and wonderful sensation instantly spread throughout his body, causing every pore on Arn's body to contract and his mind to go blank.

After a long while, the two, feeling somewhat suffocated, slowly separated, a glistening tear still lingering at the corner of their mouths.

Breathing heavily, with dazed eyes, Yamato rolled her amber eyes at Arn and asked, "Aren't you... going to let me go?"

Yaon responded blankly, and subconsciously released the "Binding Spell No. 61: Six-Staff Light Prison" that was binding Yamato.

However, the next moment, Yamato, who had just regained his freedom, suddenly pounced on Aon, pinning him down on the tatami mat in the same position as before, and questioned him with dissatisfaction.

"Is this its real form?"

As his drunkenness intensified, Arn shook his head vigorously, glanced at the sea stone shackles still around Yamato's neck, and, confirming that Yamato in this state posed no real threat to him, subconsciously nodded.

"Hmph, you bastard Yann, why didn't you tell me the truth from the beginning? How dare you deceive and toy with me like this..."

"I……"

However, before Arn could even begin to defend himself, Yamato, who was almost naked from the waist up and only wrapped in a white cloth, bent down and covered Arn's mouth again, speaking indistinctly.

"Damn it, when have I ever suffered such injustice?"

As Yamato's voice tingled with pleasure, Aon, whose consciousness had been somewhat hazy, suddenly sensed something and tried to stop Yamato from taking any further action.

"No, no, Yamato, that's not right..."

The next instant, Yamato almost instinctively let out a charming groan.

"Hmm~~~"

……

The reception room was quite soundproof, but after the conflict between Arn and Yamato broke out, the occasional faint noises made the samurai tense.

In particular, Yamato's subconscious roar of "Damn it, you lied to me again!" made the samurai unable to contain themselves and want to rush into the reception room.

However, Lucci blocked the samurai's path at the entrance, and the atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense and anxious, as if they might fight at any moment.

"Get out of the way, CP9," Denjiro shouted in a rather anxious tone.

For more than a decade, Wano Country has been shrouded in the shadow of Kaido, the "Beasts." In the recent dramatic changes in Wano Country, Denjiro saw a new hope in Yamato.

Even though Yamato's true identity is the daughter of "Kaido the Beasts," the aura and will she exudes remind Denjiro of Kozuki Oden.

Therefore, Denjiro now almost believes that Yamato has the ability to become the new shogun of Wano Country, and to lead Wano Country to eliminate the Revolutionary Army, drive out the Navy, and usher in a new era. He also regards Yamato as the person he will serve for the rest of his life.

Now, as Yamato resolved to meet with that dangerous man alone, such an angry roar erupted, and Denjiro was almost certain that the negotiations had broken down.

More importantly, after Denjiro waited for a while, no more obvious sounds came from the reception room, which undoubtedly suggested that Yamato had been attacked and controlled by that dangerous man.

Unlike the anxious samurai like Denjiro, Lucci, who stood blocking the doorway, calmly said, "Entry is prohibited from disturbing Lord Arn's meeting."

For a time, the two sides were locked in a stalemate, and the samurai became increasingly impatient and anxious.

"What should we do? Denjiro, should we force our way in? We can't hesitate any longer. Lord Yamato might already be fighting with Vice Admiral Aon inside."

"But if Lord Yamato is still negotiating with Vice Admiral Yann, it will undoubtedly be a disgrace to Lord Yamato."

“You all heard the roar just now, right? How could Lord Yamato still be negotiating with Vice Admiral Arn? The fact that there's been no further sound makes me even more worried that the Marine has already taken Lord Yamato into custody…”

Listening to the anxious conversations of the other samurai around him, Denjiro grew increasingly anxious. Just as he was about to force his way in, he heard faint sounds coming from the reception room again.

"Hmm~"

This... was a muffled groan from a man who seemed unable to suppress it.

This time, it was Lucci who couldn't keep his composure and turned his head to look at the reception room behind him with some surprise and uncertainty.

Because Lucci was closer to the reception room than the samurai, he could hear things more clearly.

There seemed to be a hint of pain in that voice.

'No...could it be that Lord Aon was countered by Yamato?'

Upon realizing this possibility, Lucci's pupils contracted, and he instinctively reached out to pull the door of the reception room behind him.

However, a knife suddenly appeared in front of Lucci's hand.

Denjiro, who had blocked Lucci's attack from the side with his sword drawn, said with a hint of mockery, "CP9, please do not interfere with Lord Yamato's normal negotiations with Vice Admiral Arn."

As Lucci's eyes darted back and forth between the samurai in the reception room and Denjiro, his gaze grew increasingly hostile, and his appearance began to subtly change.

"You bastard..."

Just as Lucci and the samurai thought a fierce battle had broken out inside the reception room and that they were about to clash, the door to the reception room suddenly opened.

"What are you doing?!"

[Chapter 634. We will definitely not lose next time]

In an instant, everyone present turned their gaze toward the door of the reception room.

Yamato was casually draped in a kimono, her beautiful gradient hair flowing freely down her back. Her eyes radiated a peculiar joy and satisfaction, and she was supporting the swaying, drunken Lieutenant General Yann. It seemed that there was no particular conflict between them.

Among them, Inuarashi, who retains many dog-like habits and traits among the Mink Tribe, twitched his nose slightly and, in addition to smelling a lot of alcohol on Yamato and Aon, also vaguely smelled a rather special scent.

However, masked by the strong smell of alcohol, Inuarashi couldn't quite make out what the exact smell was.

Denjiro's expression softened considerably upon seeing Yamato, who was completely unharmed, and he asked, "Lord Yamato, are you alright?"

Yamato waved his hand dismissively and replied, "It's nothing. I had a very pleasant conversation with Arn."

Upon hearing this, Denjiro glanced warily at Aon, who seemed unsteady on his feet from drunkenness, and then asked, "But we just heard what sounded like a commotion coming from the reception room."

Immediately, Yamato's expression became somewhat unnatural, and his gaze unconsciously drifted towards Arn before he answered.

"Conflict? Oh, that conflict has been perfectly resolved, a minor issue."

But Lucci pressed on somewhat unfriendly, "Then what was that painful groan Lord Arn made just now?"

Yamato smacked his lips and said somewhat awkwardly, "That... um... it was the sound of that idiot Yann falling over because he was so drunk."

Lucci frowned. As a spy carefully cultivated by the World Government, he naturally saw Yamato's guilty conscience from this clumsy explanation.

Just as Lucci was about to pursue the matter further, he noticed that Yann opened his tightly closed eyes a crack and gave Lucci a wink from an angle that no one else could see.
