The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"Kaido?!"

Luffy tugged at his straw hat and thought for a moment, "So, we really do have to go to Wano Country?"

"If you want to become the Pirate King~"

Inuarashi said with a smile.

This is a completely open and aboveboard scheme.

If Luffy's goal is to become the Pirate King, then he will definitely go to Wano Country.

"Alright then, it won't hurt to go."

Luffy tapped his palms. "Go to Onigashima, find the Poneglyphs, write them down, and then retreat immediately."

"Perfect!!"

He chuckled, thinking about his plans.

other people:"……"

Yes, that's a pretty good idea.

Kaido wouldn't just stand by and watch his side swagger into the hands of the Poneglyphs.

"But then again..."

Luffy suddenly thought of something.

"Why did this guy find his way here, and why is he so insistent that there are samurai and ninjas here?"

He pointed to Jack lying on the ground and asked.

"We don't know either..."

When Jack was mentioned, Inuarashi's expression turned slightly somber.

"Perhaps he gathered some intelligence..."

He asked there, uncertainly.

"Just ask him directly about this kind of thing."

Usopp rummaged through his pockets and pulled out the remaining Truth Pills, then walked towards Jack.

At this moment, Daz was transferring all the fatigue he had collected from the many Mink Tribe members onto Jack using the [Fatigue Relief Plaster].

Even though he possessed the formidable physical attributes and regenerative abilities of an Ancient Zoan, and even the wounds Zoro inflicted on him were healing remarkably well.

But after all that fatigue was transferred to so many people...

His body trembled and convulsed until he collapsed completely to the ground.

When Usopp saw Jack, whose eyes had rolled back and who was completely speechless, he promptly shifted his target.

He looked at the group of Beast Pirates' subordinates, and under their trembling gazes, he pried open their mouths and fed them the [Truth-Telling Pill].

How did you end up on Zou Island?

He asked this crucial question right from the start.

"Yes, it was Boss Jack who received news from Orochi that the samurai group had gone to Zou Island, so we followed them here..."

The artificial Devil Fruit user, whose appearance and attire closely resembled a sheep, spoke tremulously.

"Kurozumi Orochi?"

Usopp was hearing the name for the first time, but that didn't stop him from asking questions:

"How did he know the samurai's movements?"

"It seems that he had a spy among the samurai, so he knew everything about their actions..."

The Mianyang pirate stammered, but before he could finish speaking...

"You fart!!!"

Ignoring his injured body, Kin'emon scrambled to his feet.

He stared intently at the Mianyang pirate, gritting his teeth as he said:

"We are all comrades who have shared life and death, and have entrusted our lives to each other. How could there possibly be a traitor among us?!"

Kin'emon simply could not believe this fact.

Kanjuro beside him also adopted an indignant expression, but his eyes flickered slightly, and his right hand silently gripped the paintbrush hidden at his waist.

"If it's an undercover agent..."

The two men beside him, Nekomamushi and Duke Inuarashi, had gloomy faces and did not shout like Kin'emon.

Back when Kozuki Oden was fighting Kaido, both of them had a vague sense that there was a spy or traitor on their side.

The reason why the two later had a big fight and completely fell out was because of their different understandings of undercover agents and traitors.

Therefore, when they heard this guy say that there was an undercover agent, the two of them were not surprised at all.

Instead, there was a sense of relief, like the discovery of a mystery that had been hidden for eighteen years, and that it was finally about to be solved. And...

My boundless hatred for traitors and undercover agents!

"If I remember correctly, Kozuki Oden had nine retainers by his side back then."

Link stepped forward and said casually.

"Among them, Kin'emon, Kanjuro, and Raizo, whom you mentioned, were sent to the present, which belongs to the future, by Lady Toki using the power of the Time-Time Fruit."

"And during those eighteen years, Zou Island remained peaceful and quiet, and no one spoke of its existence."

"It wasn't until Kin'emon and you showed up that the Beasts Pirates landed and caused turmoil."

"Even in your previous introduction, you said that after traveling through time and space to Wano Country, you were immediately pursued by Orochi and the Beast Pirates..."

"All of this is just too much of a coincidence."

"so……"

Link looked at Kin'emon's face, which still held anger and shock:

"If there really is an undercover agent among you, it's most likely one of you time travelers."

The eighteen years passed peacefully until Kin'emon and his group reappeared eighteen years later, which stirred up trouble once again.

Such a situation makes it hard not to suspect that there is an insider or spies among them.

Because of the time travel, no information could be provided for eighteen years. Only after the time travel did the undercover information resume.

If you consider it from this perspective, everything makes sense!

“This is absolutely impossible!!!”

After Link finished speaking, Kin'emon still looked grim and firmly denied it.

"We are all Lord Oden's most loyal retainers, we would never do such a thing!!"

"If that's the case, why don't you just prove it?"

Zoro, having watched most of the show, simply suggested:

"Anyway, there are only four of you. With the existence of this [Truth-Telling Pill], it's easy to verify."

"Once they've taken it, we can easily tell if they're an undercover agent by asking them."

He said this, and then Kin'emon wanted to say something more, but was interrupted again.

I know you trust your partner a lot.

Link said leisurely,

"But you need to understand that you have gone through a lot of trouble to travel through time and space to get here, and you have hope of overthrowing Kaido's rule again."

"You always have to consider the interests of your so-called Wano Country. Don't you think personal judgment and integrity are a bit too weak in the face of such important matters?"

Kin'emon fell silent.

"Besides, isn't this just the best proof that there's no traitor among you?"

"I agree!!"

As soon as Link finished speaking, Kanjuro stepped forward with a righteous air.

"Kanjuro?!"

Kin'emon stared at him blankly.

"With a major battle imminent, we cannot afford to allow any rifts of doubt within our ranks, otherwise, it could become a fatal flaw during the fighting!"

He spoke with a strong and resounding voice.

"So, let me verify it first!!!"

Having said that, he seemed quite confident and upright, and stretched out his hand to Usopp, asking for the "Truth-Telling Pill".

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to 'Call Me Monster' for the incredible generosity with the 1000-point donation!! Thank you!!]

473 The Traitor Exposes Himself!! Kanjuro's Betrayal and Escape, Momonosuke as Hostage and Being Struck by Lightning!!

"Kanjuro!!"

Kin'emon was moved to tears.

That's right. I'm innocent and have nothing to fear. Since I'm not an undercover agent or a mole, what is there to be afraid of?!

"Give me one too!!"

Immediately, he followed suit, asking Usopp for the pills to show his attitude.

"For you guys."

Usopp immediately poured a pill into each of their hands.

Just as Kanjuro's hand touched the pill...

"Ok?"

Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji all raised their eyebrows in unison.

Eek.

Suddenly, petals began to flutter down.

Click.

With a crisp cracking sound, Kanjuro's wrist was clearly bent at an arc, indicating it was dislocated.

At the same time, a pill that looked exactly like the "Tell the Truth Pill," hidden inside the sleeve, fell to the ground.

"No wonder they were so confident in accepting this pill..."

Robin lowered his hands, which had been clashing, and looked at the fake on the ground with a light laugh: "So you were prepared all along."

"Your ability is to turn what you draw into a real object, right? So you drew a pill that looks exactly the same, trying to fool us?"

Having learned about the two men's approximate abilities from Kin'emon's account, the Straw Hat Pirates slowly surrounded Kanjuro upon seeing this scene.

"Kanjuro?!!"

Kin'emon, who was about to take the pill, saw this scene and his eyes showed astonishment and disbelief.

"What are you doing?!"

Kin'emon couldn't help but shout, "Just like you said, isn't it just about taking this pill to prove our innocence?!"

"This isn't coercion or humiliation; it's just to gain trust. What's so unacceptable about that? Why do you have to fabricate a story to cover it up?!"

Kin'emon still wouldn't have considered the possibility that Kanjuro was an undercover agent; instead, he was trying to find excuses for Kanjuro.

"His desire to resist wasn't simply driven by a sense of humiliation, was it?"

Link looked at Kanjuro, who was standing there with his head down, touching his dislocated wrist, and remaining silent, with a half-smile.

"Kanjuro is just..."

Kin'emon wanted to say something more, but two figures blocked his way.

"Whatever the reason, this is a crucial moment..."
