I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 805 The Samurai of Nougasa Village

"You will not admit your mistake! You must be Lord Ryoma! Frost Moon Ryoma!"

The little old man wearing a turban rushed to Brooke. His tone was excited and shocked, but his expression remained as unchanged as a dead person.

Frost Moon? Zoro's eyes moved.

Brooke waved his hands repeatedly and explained: "I'm not, my name is Brooke, not Mr. Ryoma ~ yo **** ho ho, although Ryoma and I are both corpses!"

Sanji was ashamed, "Don't say such words that will make him misunderstand!"

The little old man danced with a straight face and said: "Twenty-two years ago, the Pirate Rebellion broke out in Wano Country. The body of the sword **** Ryoma buried in Suzugo Cemetery was stolen. The whole country was really sad!"

"Look! I misunderstood!"

"What was stolen along with Ryoma-sama's body was the sword you used to slay the dragon - the national treasure of Wano Country, Black Sword Shusui!" The little old man said with a wooden face. Staring at the knife on Brooke's waist with excitement, "It's this one! I didn't expect that after twenty-two years, Lord Ryoma would personally bring the national treasure back..."

"I'm really not Ryoma!" Brooke explained quickly, "As you said, Ryoma's body was stolen together with this autumn water - that pirate is called Moonlight Moria! We fought with him , I also met Ryoma who became a zombie, so I got this sword!"

I thought this explanation was clear enough, but who knew that the little old man still didn't believe it.

"How is that possible! Lord Ryoma, please don't joke..." He said, pulling off his turban.

Luffy and Chopper pointed at each other at the same time and said in shock: "Brooke?!"

"Stop playing tricks at this time!" Nami fired a subtle thunderbolt at each of the two idiots to wake them up.

Under the cold moonlight, the little old man removed his turban, revealing a blue afro.

"You're me?!" Brooke was surprised.

Bang! Nami punched Brooke on the head, and the black afro was smoking.

The little old man had a straight face, but with tears in his eyes, he said sincerely: "I am dissatisfied with you all, the little old man is also of the blood of the Shuangyue clan... Rumor has it that if the warriors of the Shuangyue clan have afros, they are out of this world. The swordsman-sama of that time had such an afro!”

What is this! Ace and others were speechless.

"However, Ryoma-sama thinks that afros are inconvenient, so he wears his hair in a bun all the time..." the little old man pondered.

So you are just making it up! Usopp suppressed his complaint.

Lin Qi smiled and said: "Then you are also an unparalleled swordsman?"

The little old man had a straight face and said lonely: "How can the little old man be worthy of the name of a swordsman..."

"There seems to be a story!" Robin looked up at the moon, "There is moonlight and wine. Do you want to listen to it?"

Marco smiled and said: "It's just a good time to learn about the current situation in Wano from this local."

……

In this abandoned small village, everyone cleared away the ruins and set up a bonfire.

Thunder Cloud Thor, Mjolnir, Sif, Hela, and Ace's Fire Cloud Roger floated above everyone to block the wind.

Sanji follows Merry into the mirror that preserves Merry's body, and gets ingredients from the Merry ship stored in the mirror world. The fire cloud Susano'o blew flames towards the pile of firewood to fuel the fire, roasting the meat soup.

Lin Qi put his arms around Robin and lay together on the soft white clouds of Ymir. Usopp followed suit and hugged his own Thunder Cloud Mody. Zoro took off three knives and put them aside. Ace stretched out his hand to fiddle with the firewood, and Luffy drooled at the aroma of the meat soup. Chopper was holding Merry on his head, and they blinked at the little old man with big eyes, who was stroking the autumn water handed over by Brooke.

After listening to the explanations from Sauron, Brooke and others, the old man finally reluctantly accepted the cruel reality. Mr. Skeleton Afro is not Ryoma himself.

But this autumn water is real. The old man unsheathed his sword and gently rubbed the dark blade with a straight face.

"Speaking of which, I still don't know your name." Zoro crossed his arms and said, "You said before that you were also from the Frost Moon clan?"

"I am ashamed of myself." The little old man sighed with a straight face, "You can just call me Lao Kang."

It’s strange to talk... Nami and Chopper thought to themselves.

"He's very interesting, isn't he?" Luffy turned around and said with a smile, "His face has no expression at all, just like a robot!"

"How interesting is this!" Before Nami could do anything, Ace had already flicked Luffy's head with his finger and said angrily: "Isn't that too rude?"

"It's okay, it's okay," Lao Kang waved his hands with a straight face, "The little old man has been wandering around the country of Wano all year round, picking up garbage for a living. A few days ago, he accidentally ate poisonous fruit, which turned into facial paralysis. People..."

Chopa raised his hand and said: "Facial paralysis? Let me help you take a look!"

When Kang was about to refuse, Usopp smiled and said: "Don't worry, Chopper is a doctor! The best one!"

"You..." Lao Kang was quite moved, but his face was still as dull as a zombie. He finally sighed, "You are also pirates from the sea, right? Listen to the little old man's advice, here Dangerous and dangerous..." He looked around at the dark night and smiled bitterly, "In the past twenty years, life has been devastated. After Nozomi and Suzu, even Baiwu has become such a barren place. This kind of place is really not a place to stay for a long time. ”

Marco said: "Then why don't you leave?"

Lao Kang said: "In life, we are the people of the country of harmony, and in death, we are the ghosts of the country of peace."

Frankie was in awe. Brooke looked at himself, touched his head and said, "Am I considered a ghost of Wano now?"

"Meili is the one who counts!" "Brooke, you are at best the corpse of Wano Country." "Hahaha..."

Everyone laughed. Meili, who was suddenly CUE, touched her head in confusion.

The atmosphere on both sides doesn't match at all. Robin laughed and leaned on Lynch's arm, resting on the comfortable Ymir. He took the meat soup from Sanji, took a sip and found it tasted good, so he gave Lynch a spoonful.

Luffy picked up the meat soup and gulped it down, not listening carefully to the conversation between Lao Kang and everyone else.

After drinking the hot soup, Lao Kang felt complicated and moved beyond measure. Unfortunately, he had no tears to cry after his facial paralysis.

He tasted the meat soup carefully and carefully. Seeing that these pirates from the outer sea did not listen to dissuasion, he sighed: "If you want to know anything, just ask."

Ais said: "I want to know where this is and how to get to Bianli Village in Jiuli."

"Have you ever been to Wano Country?" Lao Kang was very surprised.

Sauron said: "I'm more interested in the frosty moon you mentioned."

Brook said: "Mr. Lao Kang mentioned Mr. Long Ma's tomb before, right? I wonder if you can tell us the location. I want to take Qiushui to worship."

"If you want to worship Ryoma, count me in." Zoro added.

"And I would rather know..." Sanji chewed his cigarette and looked at the surrounding wilderness late at night, "On the way here, I saw many smoking buildings. What kind of factory are they?"

Usopp clenched his palms and said, "I had only heard that Wano was a closed country of samurai, but I didn't expect that there were so many factories!"

When he heard about the factory, Lao Kang's expression seemed to stiffen a little more.

"Let me explain one by one..." The bonfire was burning, and everyone listened to Lao Kang's narration. Roger, the fire cloud floating above his head, resisted and wanted to swallow the fire in one gulp while everyone was not paying attention. Greedy. Lao Kang used a branch to draw a rough map of Wano Country on the ground, and said slowly: "The six villages of Wano Country are Baiwu here, Suzuo in the north, Nozomi to the west behind Suzu, and Kuri to the west. , as well as the rabbit bowl in the east of Kuri and the west of Hakumai, and the center surrounded by Gogo is the flower capital where the general of Wano Country is... The Nori Kasa Village you are looking for is probably on the southern coast of Kuri... …”

The capital of flowers? Robin was a little surprised. It was a coincidence that it had the same name as the capital of the Kingdom of Flowers after it was renamed.

And Lynch stared at Old Kang, thinking: Doflamingo died more than ten years ago, Dressrosa is safe and sound, but the original intention of the artificial devil fruit "smile" does not lie in Doflamingo in the final analysis. Lumingo, but because Caesar stole the technology from Vegapunk. The boy Caesar is still alive, and Kaido also needs to create an army of ability users, so the appearance of the smile fruit in a different form is an inevitable result... This old Kang does not laugh uncontrollably like in the comics, but turns into a zombie. The paralyzed face is a result of eating a different version of the artificial Devil Fruit - a failed product?

Luffy never listened to other people's stories. After eating a full stomach of hot soup, he patted his belly with satisfaction, jumped on Roger's back and fell asleep.

Lao Kang looked at these kind-hearted foreigners and simply introduced the situation in Wano Country.

For more than twenty years, due to the excessive taxation of officials, the originally beautiful country of Wano has gradually withered. Nozomi, Suzugo, Bai Wu... more and more villages and towns are deserted, and there is no one inhabited for ten or a hundred miles...

"He didn't mention Kaido." Robin whispered to Lynch.

Obviously, Lao Kang did not mention Kaido, or Kaido’s puppet, Orochi, the tyrant general of Wano, because he was worried that they would go to Orochi and Kaido out of righteous indignation to cause trouble... In Lao Kang’s eyes, These people are all good people with good hearts, and they are just passers-by. Lao Kang didn't want to harm them because of his words.

Lao Kang marked out the location of Jiuli Wenli Village for Ace, and marked the location of the northern cemetery behind the bell for Brooke and Sauron, and reminded: "It is rumored that there is a monk soldier there who specializes in robbing people and seizing other people's weapons. , if you go to worship, you need to be careful.”

Zoron smiled and said: "It seems that that guy has a lot of good knives in his hand?"

Lao Kang was speechless, I want to remind you not to lose your knife! Why do you act like you want to rob that person in turn...

Lao Kang also marked the location of the Flower Capital for them. Although he didn't want these good people to encounter Orochi's bastard, but with the reputation of the Flower City, these people would be famous in Wano Country sooner or later, so he might as well take the opportunity to remind them that if they go to the Flower City, they must Be careful where you go and be sure not to reveal your identity as a foreigner.

"This is a closed country, and people from outside the country are easily recognized." Lao Kang reminded, "If you enter the Flower City, you'd better change into a local dress of Wano..."

"Kimono?" Usopp and others were very interested.

Lao Kang deliberately ignored Sanji's question and took him to the factories he wanted to inquire about. He only said that they were ordinary places for quarrying and forging knives. The swords of Wano are famous all over the world, so no one will doubt its existence.

Desolate village, fire, some people were asleep, some were listening to Lao Kang talking about the good old days of Wano, and then more and more people fell asleep.

Lao Kang didn't take it seriously. He stared blankly at the increasingly smaller flames and spoke with a straight face, as if talking to himself.

Suddenly, the bonfire lit up with a loud roar. Old Kang looked aside, and Ace reached into the fire to fiddle with it, and asked casually: "Why didn't you mention Kaido at all?"

"Okay Ace, don't scare him." Marco said with Susano'o on his pillow, eyes closed, and changed into a comfortable position.

Ace shrugged, "Okay."

Lao Kang was stunned.

Over there, on the Ymir Cloud that looked like a double bed, Robin leaned on Lynch's shoulder and whispered in his ear: "Among the past events Lao Kang talked about in pieces, I always felt... There was someone's shadow that he intentionally omitted..."

Lin Qiqi said: "You can hear this? A top student who likes to collect historical documents is different..."

Robin patted his chest lightly.

Lin Qi smiled slightly, and the figure that Robin noticed was lingering in the mouth of Lao Kang - the former Baiwu daimyo Shuoyue Yasujia - was obviously the Kozuki Oden.

It was quiet at night, with only the soft sound of beep-beep-beep in the fire, and I didn't know how white the east was.

Bathing in the dim light of the morning sun, Lao Kang took out a piece of paper from his arms. On the crumpled paper are patterns and codes that only people from Wano can understand.

This is a piece of paper that appeared among various villages a month ago.

Like other samurai who were determined to overthrow Orochi and Kaido and still believed that the Kozuki family would return, Lao Kang also followed the instructions of the code and found them - but found nothing. The samurai who gathered from all over the country with the same piece of paper did not see the few "red sheaths" who inherited the will of the Kozuki family. Instead, because their whereabouts were exposed, they were arrested by people sent by Orochi and Kaido, and were imprisoned. Put to jail, put to death.

Lao Kang held the piece of paper tightly and sighed deeply in his heart. Nineteen years suddenly seemed like a dream... It was time to wake up from this dream.

……

Zoron opened his eyes, "You always seem to be secretly looking at me. Do you know why?"

Lao Kang had a straight face and hurriedly explained: "Sorry, sorry, it's just... Your appearance reminds me of a brother of the same race. He..."

"What, is that a samurai?" Zoro stood up, stretched, and tied three swords.

It was already dawn, and everyone woke up one after another. Luffy rested his head on Firecloud Roger, and his feet were hung on Thundercloud Mjolnir. They were stretched like noodles, and finally fell down with a pop, and he rubbed them sleepily. Rubbing his eyes.

Lynch and Robin sat on Ymir, looking at the rising sun in the distance. The relationship between these two people is really good. Zoro chuckled and heard Lao Kang behind him sigh sadly: "That's right. Samurai... Ushimaru, he was once the greatest swordsman in this country."

"Oh?" Zoro didn't feel sleepy after hearing that the greatest swordsman.

Chopper looked around, "Where's Sanji?"

Meili said: "He said to go to the nearby river to see if there are any local fish that can be used as ingredients to make breakfast for everyone."

"No need to have breakfast!" Ace jumped up, "Let's go to Wenli Village now. Or Marco and I can go by ourselves."

"Let's go together?" Usopp suggested.

"By the river?" Lao Kang's face - well, his eyes - changed drastically, and he hurriedly looked for the nearest river, "No, you must not eat the river water or poisonous fish here..."

"Poisonous fish?" Franky and others looked at each other.

"By the way! I haven't checked your facial paralysis yet!" Chopper chased after him, "Stop!"

Lynch and Robin jumped out of the thundercloud, "Let's go, there seems to be fun ahead."

Lively? Nami originally thought that Lynch was talking about Sanji, Lao Kang, and Chopper who were chasing after her. Suddenly, her inner network heard something, "Many people...are rushing this way!"

"Go and have a look!" Luffy took the lead and ran away.

"Don't run around!" Zoro chased after him. He didn't know there was a pulley under his feet or something, so he turned the corner on the spot.

"Don't run around!" Franky and Usopp kidnapped Zoro back.

"A bunch of idiots!" Nami raised her forehead to keep up.

"Hehehe..." Robin and Lynch walked behind with smiles. The young people were lively and energetic.

Not far away, more energetic people appeared - a few hundred meters in front of Luffy and others, several people wearing kimonos and holding long swords, covered in blood, looked embarrassed and weak They were running away in this direction, and behind them were a large group of pirates with neat leather armor and horns on their heads.

"Is he from Kaido?" Sanji jumped over from nowhere.

Usopp turned around and asked, "Why do you look so ugly?"

Sanji's face was livid, his eyes were bloodshot, and he bit the pipe: "Because I have encountered the most disgusting thing in my life... Those factories discharge waste sewage, poisoning the soil, rivers, plants, and fish... I will never tolerate the waste of food! Hey, Franky!" He turned and said, "Would you like to go and take a look? Lao Kang just told the truth, those factories are not a place to forge swords at all, but to make weapons. A black factory."

"Oh? Making weapons?" Franky's eyes flashed and he rubbed his fists, "Then you should go and see!"

Sanji picked up Usopp and ran away, shouting before leaving: "Luffy, is it okay to leave this place to you?"

"Hehe." Luffy made an OK gesture.

"Why did you take me with you!!" Usopp was in tears and was carried away by Sanji. Together with Franky, they formed a team to settle the accounts with those black-hearted factories. Sanji's voice was faintly heard: "Nonsense, your invisibility makes it easier to sneak in..."

On the other side of the crowd, several injured warriors who were running towards them suddenly changed direction and fled towards the ruined forest on the side of the road.

In the crowd chasing behind, the man with the dinosaur head at the head shouted: "Samurai of Weili Village, you have nowhere to escape - huh?"

The dinosaur head suddenly noticed the group of people in the distance. When he saw Luffy, Ace, and Marco in the front, his face became ugly. When he saw Lynch, who stood out like a flock of chickens, his expression suddenly changed. White,
