Kapitel 14: C14: Years of Time Skip |Part 9|
• (Kibi of Wano Country) {Year: 17.6} •
Two months after Ichigo(Ryu) conquered Kuri, he finally took Kibi next. It for some reason had a lot of outlaws that pillaged, r*ped, murdered, and dealt with illegal things, even humans were considered as a 'thing' if they were used. Ichigo had a hard time not getting angered and wiping out the world itself.
Luckily, he had cultivated and comprehended the Law of Emotions, letting him control his emotions, but he still boiled over the sight of them. It nearly made him view the pirates as them, but he understood that everyone had their own views on what a 'pirate' was.
So with that, Kibi was conquered by him being brutal, killing ALL of the outlaws, dirty officials, and the Beasts Pirates that resided in there. He thought he would eventually be viewed as a brutal tyrant man, killing them. But he didn't care, he'd take over as the Shogun, until the real Shogun would come back from the 20-years time travel, Kozuki Momonosuke.
"As long as he comes back and learns how to rule as a good Shogun, I'm willing to give away the Shogun position to him..." Ichigo announced to no one in particular as the defenses started to erect around the Kibi land.
*Ding*
[Conquered the land, Kibi. Establishing land, Kibi, as your own. Due to your rank, 'Administrator', now erecting defenses. Confirmation needed for production of offensive weaponries?]
"Decline." He declined. He didn't want powerful weaponries to go in wrong hands, even if the system could make it not so.
Ichigo still didn't want people, children growing up, anyone to see him using offense to block people from going in his lands. He'd rather them to see that defenses would block them, letting them know they're safe from the pirates or dirty officials.
However, there was one problem. The people inside could leave the barrier if they wanted, just by walking out of it, but they wouldn't be able to enter back in. Except for villages, towns, and cities that had their minimal defenses, they couldn't re-enter if they left it. So, basically, leave Kibi or Kuri, you won't be able to enter again. But you still could re-enter Kuri if you entered Kibi from it, and vice versa.
There were word spread about him all over the Wano Country, as the current Shogun announced publicly that he received the declaration of war from the Lone Blind Swordsman, Ichigo. The citizens in the Flower Capital looked outraged at that, but secretly, they were celebrating when they heard how the lands he took over were looking better than the Flower Capital itself.
Kuri and Kibi now had a better and cleaner air, along with more children looking healthier than before. They also heard that the Lone Blind Swordsman were very brutal towards the outlaws, corrupt officials, and the Beasts Pirates that had done any crimes Ichigo listed out, who were basically all of them.
Ichigo also had left alone the good and innocent officials, saying that they should continue their moral.
Once, one of the good officials asked him why was he overthrowing the current Shogun, he only replied. "I didn't want a family to die because they didn't want to support the current Shogun, so I thought, why not overthrow him and his dirty corrupt officials?"
When Rin heard this particular rumor, she blushed thinking he was doing this for her because her family was one of the few families left to not support Orochi.
The good officials, though, were astounded at such answer, just overthrowing a Shogun because he didn't like him? While they thought he was doing a good thing, they were a bit fearful of him being brutal tyrant due to the rumors they heard. So they decided to test him when he finished taking over the whole Wano Country, they agreed secretly.
Now there were a group of good officials with good moral beliefs, supporting with what left they all had for Kibi and Kuri. Maintaining order was easy, as there were righteous groups hiding secretly, who just recently became not-so-secretive groups, and there were the barriers.
The barriers would immediately cause a bit of pressure upon whoever commits a crime as a warning. Should they not accept it, the pressure would increase and the criminals would fall to the ground, not able to get up until the order comes near. They discovered that when a criminal had tried to do something. Learning from that example, not a lot of criminals had appeared.
As of now, the criminals were held in a secret place. No one knew what Ichigo was going to do to them, but from the rumors they heard, they expected he'd be brutal.
Ichigo wasn't going to be brutal to them though. He was just simply going to tell the citizens to do what they usually do with criminals, after his conquest.
...
In Flower Capital...
"Are you telling me that Kaido sent both Queen and King?" Orochi, the current shogun, asked again surprised. He didn't think that the Lone Blind Swordsman was too strong that needed two of the Disasters.
"Yes, right now they're at the border of Kiri and Ringo!" The messenger reported. "However, it seems even they can't break the barrier. They also kept saying the 'Solitary Pirate, Ryu' instead of the 'Lone Blind Swordsman, Ichigo'...?"
Standing up immediately, Orochi shouted at the messenger loudly. "What?! Are you sure they said the Solitary Pirate, Ryu?!"
Surprised, the messenger confirmed stutteringly. "Y-yes!"
Paling, Orochi just realized he had accepted a war declaration from a true monster! Not even Kaido could beat him. Orochi had also experienced Ryu's Sword Intent! He knew who obtained the legendary trial from the dealings he made with the Cipher Pol. He heard legends about such power, one man had owned it in the Void Century, and he was declared as the strongest true swordsman! He believed in it, because his ancestors had personally experienced that man's powers long time ago.
"S-shit..." He muttered. "No! Tell Kaido that we need to think of a trap to kill the Solitary Pirate when he comes to the here, the Flower Capital, to conquer it!"
The messenger got confused, what was that about? Who's the Solitary Pirate, Ryu? The messenger didn't know of any news outside of the Wano Country, like most of the residents.
-
Somewhere else in the Flower Capital...
"Hoh, so he's took over Kuri and now Kibi..." A man said as he read the report from one of lower-ranked man of his yakuza group, the Kyoshiro Family. "Looks like he'll go to Ringo next, meeting Queen and King there. Interesting. Kaido sent two of the All Stars."
The man was Kyoshiro, the leader! Kyoshiro was a large man whose hair is pulled back in a topknot that forms a massive faux-pompadour. He wore a kimono with circles and target patterns on it, as well as a dark, high-collared cape.
He then said while looking out of the window, "I can feel it... The Lone Blind Swordsman will defeat them and come here soon..."
A door slide slid open, as a beautiful woman came in. Turning to look at her, he said her name. "Komurasaki."
...
Near Kiri's border defense between Kiri and Ringo...
"Damn!" King of the All Star shouted as he punched the damn barrier in front of him. "How am I supposed to deal with the Solitary Pirate when we can't even get through his f*cking barrier?!"
"I don't know, maybe seppuku yourself in front of him when he leaves." Queen of the All Star 'helpfully' suggested.
Turning to glare at him, King angrily shouted. "Not helping!"
"Actually, he suggested a good one." A voice came as the Solitary Pirate, Ryu in his disguise suddenly came out of the barrier! They didn't even sense him at all. He was wearing a light blue-snowflakes kimono with a similar cloth of it covering his eyes and a katana at his right side. "We meet again, little Kingie."
King was in no means little. He was an extremely tall and large man. He wore mostly dark clothes that completely covered his body, including a mask over his face and a spiked hat with goggles on it. He also wore a buttoned jacket studded with small circles that has skull designs on its collars, pants with studded rings around them, and gloves with small spikes at the forearm. The jacket also has medium spikes coming off the shoulders. He also has a pair of large dark wings on his back resembling angel wings. Flames also appear to be emitting from the back of his head...
While Queen was an extremely large and obese man with a somewhat female/male appearance. He wore vertically striped pants held up by suspenders. His left arm was cybernetic, at least below the elbow, and he had a long scar running along the right side of his upper chest. His bald head had a dark hair being gathered into a long braid, and he has a fu manchu mustache. He also had a tattoo running across the top of his head that formed an X shape, as well as a tattoo of the Beasts Pirates' Jolly Roger and his name on his upper right arm.
Ichigo thought both of them were just... emo, somehow.
Everyone else near King quickly scrammed away from him, twitching their lips. Holding back their inner-guts-wrenching laugher, they all thought, 'Bastard! Are you trying to kill us without even moving?!'
"Don't call me little Kingie, you bastard!" Losing his rationality, King the Disaster angrily dashed and punched towards him.
*SWOOSH*
"Now, now," Ichigo 'patiently' scolded the 'little Kingie', "Good things happen to those who wait. Ah, wait, not like anything good was going to happen to you in near future anyways."
*BAM* *BAM*
*Woosh* *Woosh*
Swiftly using Armament Haki on his right hand, he punched both King and Queen away from the area they were in. They flew away in the direction of Onigashima. If he accurately calculated, they should be landing in front of Kaido, himself. He laughed at the thought of his face, "Hehe~."
The remaining Beasts Pirates were agape and suddenly felt chills go down their spine when he creepily laughed. They sweatdropped, 'Sh*t! We need to run!'
"Hey, wait!" Ichigo suddenly shouted. They didn't wait for him at all, ignoring him. Sighing, he could only let them go, after all "Oh, well. They're bound to die if they stay in Wano Country, anyways. Time for Ringo next!"
• (Ringo of Wano Country) {Year: 17.7} •
"That was quick." Ichigo said as he finished conquering Ringo, where the Northern Cemetery were at. Due to Ringo having a winter climate and rumors that it may be haunted, only few corrupt officials and Beasts Pirates resided there.
*Ding*
[Established land 'Ringo' as your own! Now setting up defense. Declined confirmation for offensive weaponries. Requesting if want to change climate?]
"And of course, you'd have a way to change the climate." He chuckled at its system. Thinking for awhile, it'd be nice if they at least had a winter climate land so they could experience snow... "No, don't change climate, keep it as is. But, if there's any citizens in Ringo, take them to Kibi. I'm going to use Ringo as a battlefield soon..."
[Yes.]
He started to walk towards the Hakumai. Ichigo was thinking of his plans when Momonosuke came with his retainers. He often got somber and chuckled while thinking, it repeated for awhile. He then started to think of different plans of conquering Flower Capital due to his Sword Aura thing almost ending soon, in about 7 months.
'Hey system, is there a way to have a clone of me?' He mentally asked as he didn't want to risk anyone listening in.
[Yes, there are several ways. But for the plan you were just thinking of, there is one for a half of a year usage, it should be long enough for your plan.]
'Good.' He smiled, as he thought of the reaction of that Kaido and Orochi when they discovered it.
Finally arriving at the border between Ringo and Hakumai, he started to focus on the conquest.
...
In Onigashima of Wano Country, with Kaido...
"Has the plan finalized?" Kaido asked of Queen of All Star. Usually, he'd ask King, but recently he had start to be useless related to the Solitary Pirate, Ryu. "And is Jack close by?"
"Yes, Jack should be coming soon, he has been blocked away from Kuri's sea barrier. So he is going around to Udon, and then go to Flower Capital." Queen replied, while having a smug smile that was very visible to King. "As for the plan, Orochi has agreed to it, so it has been finalized. We can prepare before the Solitary Pirate goes to the Flower Capital."
"Very good..." Kaido the Beast Emperor got excited at the thought of Ryu falling for it. Even Kaido himself would fall for it if he wasn't prepared for it. "Prepare the trap now!"
"Yes, Boss!" Both of them shouted.
• (Hakumai of Wano Country) {Year: 17.8} •
*Ding*
[Established land 'Hakumai' as your own! Erected defenses, declined the offensive weaponries production. Close off the 'Hapu Port'?]
"Close it off." Ichigo accepted. He didn't want anymore Beasts Pirates to come now. He'd rather keep them on Onigashima, as he planned to.
After another month, he conquered Hakumai. It was weirdly fast and smooth. He almost didn't see any corrupt officials, actually, he didn't see any of them. But he saw a lot of the Beasts Pirates going to the Flower Capital, as if taunting him to go there too. "Seems they planted a trap, huh?"
"No matter, I'll figure it out anyways." Ichigo nonchalantly stated. Suddenly he heard a weird voice coming. He decided to listen, eventually regretting it in the very near future.
"Ahh~ The Lege~ndary Lone Bli~ind Swordsm~aaaan, I~Ichi~gooooo~! Taki~nngggg~ ove~r la~nds~! I'd~ I'd~ I'd~ woul~dn't mi~iiind if he~ want~edddd~ to~ conquer~ meeeee~!" A f*cking male geisha appeared out of nowhere, Ichigo saw. "My name's Tonoyasu, to everyone who's listening!"
Tonoyasu was a short man with a thick build. He had a bushy dark hair gathered into a topknot as well as a stubble on his face. He wore a light kimono with stitches on the arms and legs, a polka-dotted bonnet around his head, and a dark bag that he carried on his back. Overall, he was one f*cking creepy geisha.
Ichigo got creeped out by him and swiftly ran away to Udon's border in his fastest speed he'd ever ran in his two whole lives.
A wind blast appeared when he ran, destroying everything in his path. Ichigo didn't give a single flying f*ck about destroying the land, as long as he wasn't near that male geisha, Tonoyasu. He knew that a geisha was to entertain people, but did that bastard have to use his false name and 'conquer him' in the same damn sentence?! 'At least be a damn female! I wouldn't care if you were fat and ugly, as long as you were a f*cking female!'
Ichigo cried, regretting not being able to erase his memories, he could but there'd be side effects to it. In short, why the f*ck was Tonoyasu in Hakumai instead of his damn hometown, Ebisu Town?!
If Rayleigh or Shanks had been here, they'd die of laughing so hard that they bust their guts. Ichigo swore that he would never tell about this to anyone at all, not even his torturers!
...
In Udon...
*Swoosh*
Finally stopping, he landed somewhere in Udon in a distance he considered safe from that male geisha. Then he shouted after he closed off his area so no one could hear him at all, "F*ck!"
[I'm going to add him into 'Attracted Females' list I made back then.]
"NO!" He shouted, horrified. "Don't remind me of him again!"
[...Okay.] It also agreed, because it also found itself creeped out. It had only intended to tease him, but it backfired, the system also remembered him too. Wishing to purge its memories of him but couldn't, made it feel as if the Heavens were punishing it. At least it wasn't alone, it had its host sharing the punishment.
Heaving a breath, he focused again. "Okay, okay. Let's get back to the conquest..."
...
Somewhere else in Udon...
"What the f*ck?!" A man in prisoner's outfit shouted angrily. He was looking at one of the building that had ceiling, but now it no longer had it. "Who the f*ck did this?!"
He quickly assumed someone inside the Prisoner Mine did it, not realizing that it was Ichigo who had done it when he was running at a fast speed.
• (Udon of Wano Country) {Year: 17.9} •
*Ding*
[Established land 'Udon' as your own. Defenses erected, also added a different kind of defense for Prisoner Mine. Rejected offensive weaponries request.]
"Hmm? A different kind of defense for prisoners?" Ichigo thought that the Prisoner Mine wouldn't get a defense at all. "What is it?"
[Prisoners' Defense:
Prisoners in the area will now experience nightmares of the crimes they have done, however they are the victims inside the nightmare. There are also safety for those who intended to inflict pain on fellow prisoners, the gravity will increase in the whole Prisoners area stopping them, all of the prisoners will lay flat on the ground. Any riot attempted will only cause them to receive diarrhea.]
"...Damn." He said after trying to think of something to say. The prisoners will regret committing any crime now, small or big. "But what about those wrongfully imprisoned?"
[I've taken the liberty of setting each prisoners in a room alone separately, after rebuilding the whole Prisoner Mine.]
"You rebuilt the whole damn building?!" Ichigo shouted. "I gotta check it out after I finish my conquest. It'll be a place for the criminals that the order captured."
...
In the Flower Capital...
There were a lot of people in the capital, as expected. But they were mostly composed of the Beasts Pirates and Orochi's samurais. The citizens had already moved away, going into Hakumai. The Lone Blind Swordsman made it so that citizens could enter into the land, but they couldn't go into Ringo or Udon, effectively keeping them there, at least until the battle was over.
Back to Orochi. He stood before all three Disasters and All Stars. "Has the trap completed?"
"Yeah." King said. "The moment he comes, Kaido will appear along with us and you. Be prepared for any unexpected, pathetic shogun."
Orochi was already used to their disdain. "Alright."
"S-sir! The Solitary Pirate's coming!" A spy reported weakly.
