Arceus’ Pirate Journey - Chapter 1396

[Chapter 1378 Death of Momonosuke]

“Ninja Head General Hiyori”

Kozuki Hiyori’s appearance here in such a short period of time was something that Shinobu didn’t expect, not to mention that there was a Koga Ninja behind him. .

The term “rebellious ninja” appeared in the country of Wano a long time ago. According to the tradition here, each generation of generals has its own imperial sect, which is an exclusive ninja unit.

Although the first thing you need to join the Royal Court Fans is loyalty, in the long history, traitors will inevitably appear. Who was the first rebel ninja? There is no record in the history of Wano.

However, the rebellious ninja from the country of Wano is not the rebellious ninja from the five major countries in the other world. A cut on the forehead protector declares the defection, and then he can escape from the ninja village and find another way out.

The country of Wano is closed to the outside world, and the people here lack knowledge of the outside world, even ninjas are no exception. Even the original Kozuki Oden did not understand the situation outside when he did not go to sea.

They have no rebel ninja organization to rely on, and most of them end up being liquidated. The terrain and policies of Wano are a natural prison at this time.

There may be successful examples, but there are no records. When a rebel ninja successfully supports a new lord to take power, his identity is no longer that of a rebel ninja.

“Xiao Ren, answer me a question. Is there anything about me that makes you dissatisfied?

Or are you, like those people back then, feeling that the current situation is all caused by me?”

Hiyori Kozuki motioned to A He Ninwa waits a moment. There is a question she has been trying to figure out. Back then, those who shouted for the future of Wano wanted to assassinate her. Denjiro never forgot Momonosuke and stood by him at the critical moment. His side.

Denjiro’s dissuasion was already hard for her to accept, but Shinobu’s actions now made her even more irritated.

Denjiro and the others are all Kozuki Oden’s retainers, so she can be said to have inherited this part.

But Shinobu is a member of the Imperial Court Fans, and unlike the members of the Orochi Imperial Court Fans who were incorporated, she is a member of the Hiyori Imperial Court Fans who later joined.

The Yuting Fans were originally the general’s private soldiers. Choosing to join them meant that she had chosen her allegiance.

“You didn’t make any move before. I thought only Denjiro was always worried about this kind of thing. I didn’t expect that you were hidden even deeper than Denjiro. Shinobu, what is the reason for you to do this?”

Momonosuke Hiyori Kozuki’s future seems to have been doomed. Compared with this, she wants to know the reason why Shinobu did this.

“General Hiyori. When I was a child, I was a member of the Imperial Court of the Kozuki family. However, when Kuotan Orochi seized the position of general, those people chose to join Kuotan Orochi, and I chose to quit.” “

So you are with me . You came back when you became the so-called general, but when my brother disappeared for 20 years and returned, you still resolutely joined his side, right?” “

This”

Xiao Ren did not answer directly, because She didn’t know how to explain it either.

In her understanding, only the son of the general is the sole heir of the general. This is a deep-rooted concept in Wano. Although some people in the older generation have accepted the existence of Hiyori Kozuki, that is more because, The son of the Kozuki family is no longer here.

The views of the younger generation have changed, but the older generation is different. They talk about many topics in private, including some confusion about Kaido.

For example, why did Kaido give his heir to his daughter, instead of having another son or recruiting a qualified son-in-law, and handing over the position to his grandson.

Shinobu herself is a woman, but she doesn’t see anything wrong with this idea.

Even though she didn’t speak, her actions said it all.

“It seems that you, like them, feel that only Brother Momonosuke is the blood of my father.

I am just a substitute, or a dispensable victim. No matter what Wano becomes, I will become .

In the eyes of people like you, the only right thing is to let Brother Momonosuke inherit the position.”

Xiao Ren didn’t know how to explain that it just gave Kozuki Hiyori more space to think, although she thought the same thing as Xiao Ren. Shinobu’s thoughts were similar, but Hiyori’s thoughts held more resentment.

“You also have a brother, right? For the sake of so many years, I will not embarrass him, nor will I announce the cause of your death. I will just treat you as if you died in the process of encircling and suppressing the escapees.”

Except for Ninja Koga. Apart from Wana, Hiyori Kozuki knows the composition of these imperial fans very well, including their relatives and friends.

Hipe is usually not particularly extreme, but Momonosuke’s problem is a knot in her mind that she can’t solve. The more she sees people around her thinking from Momonosuke’s point of view, the angrier she becomes.

The decision she just made was the way she dealt with Xiao Ren, and it was also the decent decision she made.

Denjiro didn’t let her kill him that time, but this time it was different.

Even if she doesn’t take action, the Koga Ninja will not hold back. From the perspective of Hiyori Imperial Court Fans, there is no doubt about her betrayal.

“Momonosuke-sama, you have to find a way on your own from now on. I can only help you with this one thing. Ninja Technique: Mature Woman Seductive Technique!”

Xiao Ninja’s hand grabbed Momonosuke, she is a superhuman. ·A person with the ability to ripen fruits is a mature person.

It can mature and age everything it touches, and this is an irreversible process.

With the activation of her ability, Momonosuke’s body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a young man. The clothes on his body no longer fit him, and they were randomly wrapped around his waist to cover himself.

In the past, Shinobu didn’t know what a Devil Fruit was. Like Kin’emon, he regarded his fruit’s ability as a unique ninjutsu talent. Later, the beasts brought knowledge from the outside world to Wano, but Shinobu was used to it. This is what it was called in the past.

“Momonosuke-sama, this will give you some ability to resist. I hope you can inherit some of Oden-sama’s talents.”

Compared with children, the bodies of adults undoubtedly have stronger fighting power. This is the only thing that Xiao Shinobu can improve. Here is the way to fight.

“Ninpo Technique: Smoke Escape Technique!”

Xiao Ninja threw a few more smoke bombs to the ground, confusing the field of vision here. She had no intention of fighting the opponent.

She tried to escape with Momonosuke because she believed that Momonosuke was the orthodox one, or it might have been affected by the remaining Oden virus. After all, this thing will always choose a host. After Yamato was exempted, other people became victims as well. inevitable.

But her understanding of combat power has not yet gone wrong. Even though she has been discovered here, Kin’emon’s situation is probably not much better. She doesn’t know how far she can go, so she can only do her best.

But after Shinobu worked hard on his own for a long time, the other person didn’t cooperate with her very much. Momonosuke neither tried to escape nor chose to resist. He just stood there blankly, as if he was frightened.

Ripe fruits can ripen the body, but they cannot change the mind. Now Momonosuke has the body of an adult, but the mind is still that of an 8-year-old child.

Hiyori hates her brother because of the changes in these years, but Momonosuke still thinks of Hiyori as the younger sister he used to be.

[I just want to kill you]

These emotionless words could be said to have completely broken down Momonosuke’s inner defenses, leaving him standing there, but Xiao Shinobu could no longer provide any help to Momonosuke.

“Water shuriken.”

Several shurikens were shot from the hands of Koga Ninja. As the water blade rotated, the smoke in the air also dispersed under the stirring airflow.

“Soil Escape Technique!”

Xiao Ren touched the ground with both hands. The land below also matured and turned into sand under the influence of her ability, and eventually turned into countless dust. Xiao Ren’s body also fell into the pit and avoided it. Koga Ninja’s initial offensive.

“Just adding the word ninjutsu to a move doesn’t make it really a ninjutsu. A little trick will always be a little trick. It seems like you haven’t remembered what I once taught you.”

Xiao Ninja’s actions seemed to be in Koga’s mind. Within the Ninja’s prediction, he casually hooked his finger, and the flying shuriken drew an arc in the sky and flew back again. In the process, the size of the shuriken continued to increase.

Wow!

As the water shuriken touched the ground, a tidal wave rose out of thin air, and Xiao Shinobu, who was unable to escape in time, was sucked into it. The disadvantages of fruit ability users appeared, and Xiao Shinobi began to feel weak, and was eventually killed by the sailor who followed closely. The sword slit his throat.

The vortex was stained with a bright red color, but it was quickly diluted by the water flow. When the water flow dispersed, Xiao Shinobu’s body had fallen to the ground.

At this time, Momonosuke was also wet by the vortex rising from the water shuriken.

Ripe fruits have the same abilities as sweet fruits, and the results they have caused will not disappear when the person with the ability dies.

He still looked like an adult, and his hair that had grown wet covered his face. The faint smell of blood spread into his nose, and then a pair of hands gently helped Momonosuke clean the hair on his face.

“So this is what you will look like when you grow up? You are nothing like your father, but you can make those people follow you without any reason or limit. My dear brother, can you tell me why?

What is your shining point that makes so many people fight for it?

Talent? Wisdom? Or force? You obviously have nothing. We have the same blood. These people just want to choose you. Tell me why! “

From calm questions to slightly crazy roars, Kozuki Hiyori’s mood changed very quickly, but after the brief madness, he showed the ultimate calmness.

“Can’t you hear me? You are talking!”

Seeing that Momonosuke was stunned and didn’t react at all, Hiyori picked up the scabbard and struck at him. If there was a blade, she was afraid that Momonosuke would do this. died.

Even with an adult body, the perception of pain has not changed.

Moreover, stabbing with a blunt instrument can also cause considerable harm to people.

As this force was introduced into Momonosuke’s body, the pain was also fed back to his brain along with the pain nerves in his body. In this way, Hiyori Kozuki successfully woke up Momonosuke.

“This face is really ugly. Does such a little pain make you cry? Why don’t you cry?”

Seeing Momonosuke clenching his teeth, Hiyori felt funny and just waited. Looking at Momonosuke’s reaction.

After a long time, Momonosuke came to his senses and said to Hiyori: “Because a samurai cannot cry at will. Why did you let someone kill Shinobu, and why did you want to kill me so much!” “What I told you back

then. ? Have you forgotten everything? Because I think this world is unfair, that’s all.” “

You are not my sister. Hiyori would not be so cruel, let alone kill innocent people!”

“This is cruel. Are you there? Where were you when those people were like lunatics, shouting that they wanted to assassinate me for the sake of Wano and Mitsuki? They

wanted to raise the backbone of the so-called samurai, but they had to use the blood of others to do it all. , is this the samurai you are pursuing?

As for why you want to kill Xiao Ren, isn’t it because of you! If you disappeared completely, no. If you didn’t exist at all, wouldn’t things be much better!”

Tian Yuyu He slashed at Momonosuke head-on, but Hiyori still used the scabbard, causing Momonosuke to roll up on the ground in embarrassment.

“It’s not that I haven’t done any good things, little Shinobu. At least when you grow up, I don’t have to worry about beating you to death.”

Adults are beaten more often than children, and Momonosuke’s body gradually becomes bruised and broken. It also left countless blood marks on his body.

It seemed like he was rolling randomly, but in fact, Hiyori Kozuki’s blows controlled Momonosuke’s rolling direction. Under her deliberate swing, Momonosuke finally hit Shinobu.

The cause of her death was that she had been in a state of drowning and suffocation for a long time, and her throat was cut afterwards. Her face looked very ferocious, which shocked Momonosuke again.

“Your sister wouldn’t be so cruel. Maybe you are right. After all, the sister in your heart died a long time ago. The only one who survives is me now. Many people will die because of you.” Hiyori suddenly

remembered After listening to Momonosuke’s words before, she no longer had many memories of her childhood. Not many people could accurately tell what they had experienced before the age of six. There were only a few things that left a deep impression on her.

Those beautiful memories of the past have long been expelled by the darkened heart.

“That’s enough. If you want to kill me so much, then I can do it myself!”

Snap.

Momonosuke didn’t know where he got the courage. Hearing that many people would die because of him, he suddenly said this, but Hiyori’s reaction was not slow, and he almost didn’t think about it, and he was thrown into the wakizashi. in front of him.

“Okay, then you can do it yourself. It seems that seppuku is one of the samurai traditions you admire, right? But this process is very painful.”

Momonosuke pulled out the wakizashi tremblingly, and then took out the sword He aimed at his stomach, but he didn’t dare to stab it.

Looking at Momonosuke’s trembling arms, Hiyori held the handle of the knife for him with both hands and re-aligned it.

“It’s right here, stab it first, and then make a stroke like this, but you won’t die directly, you will have to wait for a few minutes, right? Will you die of pain or excessive blood loss?

I don’t know, just try it yourself. It shouldn’t take too long.”

Hiyori did not stab him with his own hands, as if he wanted to see how brave Momonosuke, who was so courageous just now, could do.

And Momonosuke did not live up to Hiyori’s hopes. He was no different from what Hiyori knew him to be. After gesticulating for a long time, the wakizashi in his hand still fell to the ground.

“No, I don’t want it. I don’t want this. Hiyori, I’m your brother, why are you doing this!” “

Either you kill yourself, or you try to kill me with a knife. You actually threw the knife on the ground. You are cowardly and indecisive, and have no persistence at all, so you have so many people following you.”

Momonosuke’s abandonment of the sword aroused the disdain of Hiyori Kozuki, which did not arouse her sympathy, but instead looked down on this brother even more.

“That joker is not right at all. Seeing people begging for mercy will not make you feel happy at all.”

Pfft!

This time it was not in the scabbard, but the blade of Tian Yuzhan. The sharp blade pierced Momonosuke’s body, and blood flowed out along the shallow blood groove on the blade. As Hiyori turned the handle of the sword, Momonosuke There was even more cramping in his stomach, and he fell weakly into Hiyori’s arms.

“Everyone in Wano Country thinks that Kozuki Momonosuke has died a long time ago in the civil strife caused by the Black Carbon Orochi. Only a few people think that you are still alive, and most people think that you have ceased to exist.

So. He said, there were no public executions, and there were no rebels, but this should be a good thing for you. If you tell the local people now that you want to drive away the beasts, I am afraid you will be spurned to death.

You do not deserve to die . Everyone knows that you can die quietly here in pain. No one knows who you are, and no one wants to remember who you are.”

Momonosuke’s eyes were full of helplessness and panic. , a large amount of blood also overflowed from his mouth and blocked his mouth.

laugh! laugh!

The blade was pulled out and thrust in again. At first, Momonosuke could still struggle for a while, but soon there was no movement. He even failed to inherit Kozuki Oden’s rare advantage – force.

Blood splashed onto Hiyori’s face, and half of her clothes were stained red with blood, but Hiyori ignored it and just mechanically repeated the movements of her hands.

The wound was already in disrepair, and even a large hole was dug into the ground beneath him.

“General Hiyori, he is dead. He is just a corpse now.”

Seeing that Hiyori Mitsuki didn’t mean to stop, Koga Ninja reminded her, which also made Hiyori slightly come back. God.

“Did you die? My boring brother, but I’m not happy at all.”

Killing Momonosuke did not bring her the joy that Hiyori expected. After confirming that Momonosuke was dead, she instead I feel empty inside.

[General Hiyori, you have to understand that your hatred is not just as simple as it appears on the surface. When you complete your revenge. No, this is not revenge, it should be said to be the venting of resentment.

When you let go of your resentment, you will feel lost instead. 】

Just now she felt that Doflamingo was talking nonsense, but now she feels that there is some truth to what he said.

Looking into the distance, the sky is still dark, but closer to the east, the sky has become white, which is the prelude to dawn and heralds the arrival of a new day, but some people cannot see this after all. It’s a new dawn.
