“That’s right, my true identity is indeed a CP0 agent,” Stussy said with a charming smile. “But don’t worry, I won’t harm you. In fact, I can offer you a lot of help… as long as you grant me one request.”
"What request?"
"I'll tell you after things are over in Wano Country. This request will be of no benefit to your goals."
After finishing his sentence, Stussy hung up the phone without waiting for Chen Yong'an's reply.
Two phone calls in quick succession in the morning gave Chen Yong'an a feeling that a storm was brewing, which made him quite unhappy.
Fortunately, luck wasn't on Kaido's side.
At noon, a ship passed through the waterfall connecting Wano Country to the outer sea and successfully entered the inland sea of Wano Country.
A ship from the [Furry Principality].
—Zune was punished for the mistakes it made in the past and was forced to endlessly walk on the ocean in the New World. However, due to the special relationship between Zune and Wano Country, Zune could not approach Wano Country without orders.
Therefore, reinforcements from the Fluffy Principality could only arrive in this way.
"Karuchu~"
Carrot, the bunny girl who had become close with D.Va, couldn't wait to pounce on D.Va as soon as they met, rubbing her cheeks against hers, enjoying the long-lost feeling of the smoothness and delicacy of human skin.
This made the other fur-bearers extremely envious, but before they could make a move, they were frightened into inaction by a warning look from Chen Yong'an.
—The sun god disliked the furry people for him and his woman, "Karucho".
This is already common knowledge in the Woolly Principality.
The only exception is Carrot, the bunny girl who gets along very well with D.Va and the others.
On a cliff near the sea, Chen Yong'an set up a tea table and brewed hot tea to entertain Inuarashi and Nekovikami, the two leaders of the furry duchy.
"You must be tired from the journey."
"I dare not," the tall and composed Inuarashi bowed to Chen Yong'an. "Compared to the precious promise of the Sun God, how can this journey be considered arduous?"
The majestic cat viper, as powerful as a lion, also bowed deeply to Chen Yong'an along with Duke Inuarashi.
If the previous alliance with Chen Yong'an was due to Chen Yong'an's "reputation," then now it is because they are completely convinced of Chen Yong'an's strength.
He stormed into Whole Cake Island, defeated and killed Big Mom, who was also one of the Four Emperors like Kaido, and used his strength to dispel all the concerns of the cat and dog.
If even an alliance between the Woolen Principality and Chen Yong'an couldn't defeat Kaido and Orochi, and thus allow Wano Country to open its borders, then it's truly unimaginable how Wano Country could possibly open its borders.
"It's just a matter of mutual benefit; after all, I will need the strength of your furry duchy in the future."
"Yes," Inuarashi straightened his back. "If the Sun God gives any orders in the future, we will go through fire and water without hesitation."
“Me too,” the cat viper chimed in.
Chen Yong'an glanced at the cat viper, poured each of them a cup of fragrant Pu'er tea, and continued, "I remember you mentioned before that you are from the Kozuki family..."
“My retainer,” Inuarashi reminded me, “when Nekomamushi and I were young, we heard the legend of Zou allying with Wano Country, so we decided to set sail to find the legendary Wano Country.”
However, we were shipwrecked and drifted to the coast of Wano Country. Lord Oden saved us in our moment of danger, and we then decided to follow him and become retainers of the Kozuki family.
"Hmm," Chen Yong'an picked up the hot tea in front of him and took a sip. "I'm a little curious. If I defeat Kaido and Orochi and help Wano Country open its borders, what are your plans next?"
When asked, Inuarashi replied without hesitation, "Then we must stay and protect Wano Country, wait for the Kozuki clan to return, and then return Wano Country intact to the Kozuki clan's rule."
"Bang!!"
A crisp sound of shattering ceramic suddenly rang out.
Chen Yong'an crushed the teacup in his hand into dust.
Inuarashi and Nekomamushi felt a chill run down their spines, a sense of foreboding creeping over them.
“It’s nothing,” Chen Yong’an shook his head, wiping the powder and tea off his hands with a towel. “But if I were to use my identity as the ‘person the world has been waiting for for eight hundred years,’ and ask you to sever all ties with the Kozuki family after this matter is over, and obediently serve as the kings of the Woolly Principality, what would you do?”
“This is not what we agreed on,” Inuarashi said hastily. “Our condition is that the Mink Tribe becomes your power, and it has nothing to do with the Kozuki Tribe.”
"Yes, this is not what was agreed upon. As a leader who overthrew the old era, I was asked to help you overthrow the rule of Kurozumi Orochi, but instead, the even older Kozuki clan continues to serve as the generals of Wano Country, enjoying the fruits of victory without shedding blood or exerting any effort. Isn't that a bit too ridiculous?"
Chen Yong'an took a new cup, poured tea into it, and continued to tilt the teapot until it overflowed, just watching the tea flow.
"The times are like the tea in this cup. New tea is poured in, and old tea is washed away. This continuous flow makes the tea more fragrant and more vibrant."
If the leftover tea leaves from yesterday are not rinsed away by the new tea, the whole cup of tea will taste bad, making a perfectly good cup of tea unpalatable.
The era of the Kozuki clan's rule over Wano Country ended 20 years ago. Why not give the young people of Wano a chance? Making Wano vibrant and full of life wouldn't be a bad thing, would it? "You Lin, I don't have Lin Yongkong, you Lin Zaizai, I don't have..."
After saying this, Chen Yong'an looked at Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, put down the empty teapot, picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
It was as if the land of Wano was like this tea; whether to drink it or throw it away depended entirely on Chen Yong'an's decision.
It sent chills down the spines of Inuarashi and Nekomamushi.
Chapter 682: Entering the Island of Demons
This is a clash of ideologies. Chen Yong'an doesn't expect Inuarashi and Nekomamushi to understand. He just wants them to know his stance.
Defeating Kaido and Orochi to save Wano Country is one option, helping Wano Country open its borders is another.
But to let the Kozuki clan, a powerful family that has ruled Wano Country for nearly a thousand years and firmly held the ruling class, take away his fruits of victory and continue to rule Wano Country, is simply out of the question!
Wano Country, which has been ruled by the Kozuki clan for nearly a thousand years, is a microcosm of this world. If even the Kozuki clan cannot be dealt with, how can we deal with the World Government and the Celestial Dragons who have ruled this world for eight hundred years?
"Have your men prepare," Chen Yong'an slammed his teacup down on the tea table. "Let's set off now to settle accounts with Kaido."
"Now?" Inuarashi glanced at the sun high in the sky. "You may not know this, but for us Mink, we can only unleash our full power under a full moon, entering the 'Lunar Lion' form, where both speed and strength are increased several times over."
My plan is to wait until the full moon in seven days, and in the meantime, contact and gather allies within Wano Country who once followed the Kozuki clan, in order to fulfill Lord Oden's last wish and launch an attack on Kaido.
"Seven days? That's too long. I can't wait that long."
Chen Yong'an took out a pouch from his pocket and tossed it to Quan Lan, saying, "This thing is called the [Rambo Ball]. It allows your Mink Tribe to enter Luna form within fifteen minutes."
Distribute them among your people, two per person, I think that should be more than enough.
However, please remember that taking two pills in a row puts a great strain on your body, so try to avoid doing so unless absolutely necessary.
Rumble Balls are Chopper's invention, a drug that can unleash a person's potential, similar to a stimulant, and are especially suitable for the Mink Tribe, a special race that requires a certain level of full power.
When the angel rescued Chopper on Drum Island, she obtained the Rumble Ball formula from him and improved upon it.
This allows for longer-lasting effects and fewer side effects.
However, since there were no furry people on the ship, the improved Rumble Ball was never used.
Now is the time to let the fur tribes shine, and their strength is needed.
Upon hearing Chen Yong'an say that the Rumble Ball would allow the Mink Tribe to use the power of the Luna in broad daylight, Inuarashi and Nekomamushi both trembled.
For the Mink Tribe, this Rumble Ball was undoubtedly a lifesaver!
This gave them more security during the operation.
Onigashima in Wano Country, the headquarters of the Beasts Pirates.
An island with an appearance resembling a skull with two horns.
It is shrouded in thick fog all year round, and the skull's eyes emit a man-eating red light, making the environment gloomy and terrifying, as if it were a paradise for ghosts.
As for entering Ghost Island, Chen Yong'an had no plan whatsoever and simply forced his way in.
Or the plan was to defeat any enemy that dared to block their way, and then enter the Oni Island.
Two medium-sized sailing ships with a total capacity of no more than thirty people faced three giant fleets of thousands of people from the Beasts Pirates.
However, the advantage in numbers and ships cannot make up for the gap in strength between the two.
Especially the Lexington, which was sailing ahead.
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from it, the pirates on the several giant ships were all trembling with fear and breaking out in a cold sweat.
Those with slightly weaker abilities would foam at the mouth and fall into a coma.
At first, it was just the "Waiters" who hadn't eaten the artificial Devil Fruits, but as the Lexington approached and the distance between them decreased, the "Gifters" who had eaten the artificial Devil Fruits gradually began to foam at the mouth and fall into a coma.
Under this terrifying aura, the pirates on the ship didn't even have the courage to fire their cannons to stop them. They could only watch as the two medium-sized sailing ships drew closer and closer, and more and more people fell down around them.
"Make way, let them in."
A figure completely covered in black clothing, with flames erupting from its back, landed on the bow of the giant ship in the middle.
King, the leader of the Three Disasters of the Beasts Pirates, is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user with the Ancient Zoan form of the Dragon-Dragon Fruit. He has a bounty of 1.39 billion Berries and is nicknamed the "Wild Disaster".
“This is the Governor’s order.”
"Yes Yes!"
The desperate gift-givers, relieved as if granted a pardon, immediately ordered everyone to move aside, revealing the entrance to the Demon Island behind them. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the previous sentences.)
As the ships moved aside, the pressure on these pirates suddenly decreased, and they gasped for breath as if they had come back to life.
Jin stood on the bow of the ship, watching two medium-sized sailboats slowly pass by below, his gaze fixed on Chen Yong'an until they were far away.
“That guy was pretty strong,” 2b said. “He was a very powerful swordsman.”
“Same style as you,” Eve said, “dressed very conservatively, like an ascetic.”
"2B only has desire, not restraint, right?" Mai Shiranui teased, patting 2B's enormous drum. "Take off the blindfold, and unleash your full power!"
“You’re not to be outdone,” 2b retorted casually, “you burn more than anyone else.”
"Of course," Mai Shiranui said, hands on her hips, bending over in a rather sexy and alluring pose. "I'm a user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, how can I not burn a little?"
2B stopped chatting with Mai Shiranui, knowing that she was no match for Mai in this regard.
Mai Shiranui stopped teasing 2B and ran to the bow of the ship. She leaned on the railing and exclaimed in amazement at the magnificence and wonder of Onigashima in front of her, calling the others to come over and take pictures with her.
The other girls also eagerly anticipated the event, showing none of the tension one would expect before a major battle.
Thanks to these energetic girls, Chen Yong'an, who was suppressing the nearby pirates by releasing Conqueror's Haki, was able to relax a lot.
In contrast to the relaxed atmosphere on the Lexington, Inuarashi and Nekomamushi were more serious than ever before.
They never expected that entering Onigashima would be so easy; they only needed to rely on their aura to make those usually arrogant and conceited pirates clear a path for them.
"Can you feel that powerful aura, old dog?" Nekomamushi suddenly said. "It reminds me of the days when I accompanied Lord Oden and went on adventures with Whitebeard and Roger."
"The world has been waiting for this person for eight hundred years to have the spirit he deserves," Inuarashi closed his eyes. "These young people today are truly remarkable."
"Otherwise, how could we overthrow the corrupt old world?"
"The Kozuki clan, who have ruled Wano Country for at least eight hundred years, are also part of the Old World."
"yes……"
Cat Viper couldn't help but sigh. If Chen Yong'an really was the person this world had been waiting for for eight hundred years, then did his appearance mean that the mission of the Light Moon Clan had come to a complete end?
As the old world perishes, it brings Wano Country a future full of unknowns, but also more vibrant.
The future belongs to young people.
Chapter 683: Thunderous Eight Trigrams!
A wooden Japanese-style arched bridge, demon sculptures, samurai flags with slogans, and a giant samurai sword stuck diagonally in the ground—all sorts of random elements from Wano Country are haphazardly piled together to form the giant skull in the middle of Onigashima, which is also the entrance to Kaido's castle.
One by one, strangely shaped pirates of all shapes and sizes stood on both sides of the road, glaring menacingly at the people who had set foot on the island.
The malice emanating from so many powerful pirates was enough to make Inuarashi and Nekomamushi's subordinates uneasy and fearful.
But seeing Chen Yong'an walking ahead, with his back straighter than anyone else's and showing no fear whatsoever, I regained my courage and straightened my back.
“These guys are up to no good,” Mona thought, looking around. The pirates who were now greeting them were very different from the lowly minions who could be easily stunned with Haki just now.
They are the elite Gifters and True Fighters of the Beasts Pirates, the core force of the "Flying Six," the three "Big Six" second only to Kaido, and Kaido himself standing in the mouth of a giant skull.
Kaido, the "Beasts," is a burly man standing seven meters tall with two curved horns like a demon on his head, a strong upper body with bulging muscles, and a large fish scale tattoo on his left arm.
Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, the strongest creature, a member of the legendary pirate Rocks' crew, and many other prestigious titles, combined with his aura as an emperor, is enough to make most people not even dare to raise their heads in front of him, let alone look him in the eye.
“We are the ones who came here,” Chen Yong’an said, looking directly into Kaido’s dragon-like eyes. “You will decide for yourself whether to retreat or call for reinforcements.”
“Okay,” Mona clenched her fist, and the trajectory of the stars reappeared in her azure pupils, allowing her to “see” the fate of everyone present.
Aside from these beings from other star systems, there is also Kaido, one of the Four Emperors.
—Kaido's fate is intertwined with the destinies of too many people, and coupled with his powerful Conqueror's Haki, Mona cannot foresee his fate. (The last two lines appear to be unrelated and possibly spam/advertisements.)
Chen Yong'an raised his hand to signal the others to stop. He walked towards Kaido alone. With each step he took, his size increased dramatically. By the time he reached Kaido, he was as tall as Kaido. His loose robe became fitted, and a pair of crystal-clear dragon horns, like deer antlers, appeared on his forehead.
Snake-Snake Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon Form!
Although Chen Yong'an has grown taller, unlike Kaido's disproportionate physique, Chen Yong'an's body remains well-proportioned, exuding masculine charm and a powerful aesthetic.
