Capítulo 312: *Title Hidden*
Although a Chansey was previously shot, the Power of Viridian, combined with the healing from the other Chansey, had it feeling almost back to normal now. Except for a slightly faded patch of color on its body, there was hardly any sign of injury.
After a while, that mark would slowly fade away. Upon Chansey's request, Yamato obediently lay back in bed.
As they no longer concerned themselves with the outside world, a slight feeling of exhaustion crept into their bodies. There was no need for singing; soon, the room was filled with the sound of snoring.
Meanwhile, everything happening in Wano Country at night was visible from the Sky Island above.The height of Sky Island was just right to view the fireworks below from a new perspective.
However, at this time, the fireworks were interrupted midway by sounds of explosions and flames. The burning Flower Capital and Oden Castle caught the attention of scholars above.
"What's going on? Has someone invaded this place?" Robin at the edge of Sky Island asked Saul beside her.
"It's impossible. There currently aren't many forces capable of doing such a thing. Our presence hasn't been exposed, or else we would have been in trouble long ago. So, it's unlikely to be anyone from the World Government or the Marines."
"As for the pirates, the only one capable of attacking the Beasts Pirates' base are Whitebeard and Big Mom. But Big Mom has a decent trade relationship with the Beasts Pirates, and Whitebeard wouldn't take the initiative to do such a thing. At this moment... it's probably an internal conflict."
Based on Saul's understanding of the situation of the sea, the Beasts Pirates' position in the New World was quite stable. While the Beasts Pirates haven't been around for a short time, among the various pirate crews, Kaido is actually one of the youngest.
Furthermore, considering his network of relationships, it's unlikely that anyone would attack this place. So, if we rule out external threats, it can only be an internal conflict. Moreover, this scale of conflict is probably not within the confines of a pirate crew but rather the clash between the occupied country and the Beasts Pirates.
"Don't worry, Robin. Your friends will be fine. These people can't deal with the Beasts Pirates."
Sensing Robin's concern about the situation below, Saul reassured her. Most countries and islands in the New World relied on other pirate crews to ensure their safety.
Except for the kingdom of giants, there are only a few nations capable of ensuring their own safety through their nation's power.
"But this can also be considered witnessing history."
The Sky Island was cut off from the rest of the world, and in the absence of the Millennial Dragon squad, there was no way for them to descend.
Meanwhile, in Wano, Kaido gazed at the thing in front of him, displaying an expression rarely seen, one that closely resembled Yamato's.
"Are you serious?"
"Of course. Does it look like you're injured? You're supposed to be the savior of this internal conflict. Although it's a bit of a shame, in the information we release to the outside world, Kozuki Oden cannot be shown to have died at your hands."
Queen was currently applying plaster to Kaido as per Arceus' orders. Yesterday, he fought to his heart's content, but today was different.
"That guy was quite a good opponent, just obsessed with Joy Boy. He seemed to have gone to Laugh Tale with Roger. I wonder what's there."
"You'll find out later. After all, we already know the locations of three Road Poneglyphs; we're just missing the last one. But for now, I want you to play your part in this final act. You do enjoy theater, don't you? Today, you can perform it yourself."
"Troublesome."
At the same time, Kikunojo and Denjiro were puzzled over the behavior of the Beasts Pirates in a room. When they were captured earlier, they hadn't been subjected to torture but were instead locked in a room.
After all, the blame for the chaos in Wano Country has already been pinned on Kurozumi Orochi. The Kozuki family is now the victim, and it would be too strange if only Kozuki Hiyori survived as the sole victim. So, the remaining few will serve as special evidence.
Olga could choose to use illusions in place of them, but that would restrict her to Wano Country as well. Creating puppets was more convenient. Although Kozuki Hiyori was only six years old and knew nothing, that's precisely what the Beasts Pirates wanted – someone who knew nothing.
Being a puppet, knowing too much is a troublesome matter. Judging by the fact that she spent 20 years gathering information, which is still less than what Robin could gather in a single evening, it's evident that she's well-suited for this role.
Moreover, Kozuki Hiyori's continued existence had another advantage. Not everyone would submit to the Beasts Pirates' future rule. There would always be loyalists of the Kozuki family, and Kozuki Hiyori could draw them out, allowing them to be captured all at once.
Not long after Denjiro and Kikunojo were locked up, the injured Kawamatsu was also thrown in.
"Kawamatsu?! How did you end up here? What about Princess Hiyori?!"
"I-I was captured. Princess Hiyori too."
Denjiro's inquiry carried only a faint glimmer of hope, as even Kawamatsu had been captured. Therefore, the likelihood of Hiyori escaping was exceedingly slim.
After daybreak, the door was opened, and the "injured" Kaido appeared together with a jar.
"These are the ashes of Kozuki Oden. After being poisoned by Orochi at yesterday's banquet, he went mad and ultimately perished. What a pity."
"What kind of joke is this, Kaido?! Yesterday, you personally claimed to have killed Oden-sama!" Listening to Kaido's explanation, Kikunojo couldn't believe these words at all.
"That wasn't me. Orochi had a woman with him named Kurozumi Higurashi. She's a devil fruit user with the Clone-Clone Fruit, and she transformed into me to deceive you all."
"Don't joke around! Your explanation might fool ordinary people, but we witnessed what happened last night. You can't deceive us! If you want to kill us, go ahead. We will never surrender."
"Muhahaha, as Lord Arceus predicted, you all are indeed quite stubborn. But from now on, this explanation will be the truth of last night. Unless you want your Miss Hiyori to become the Oiran of the Red-Light District."
As soon as he said that, the three of them froze. Kozuki Hiyori was now in the hands of the Beasts Pirates, and even Kozuki Oden and Ashura Doji had perished in battle. And even without a hostage, the few of them, who were far weaker than them, wouldn't stand a chance against Kaido.
"What exactly do you intend to do?"
"Do? Kurozumi Orochi intended to overthrow this country. Boss Kaido discovered Orochi's plot and thwarted it. To maintain control over Wano Country, Kaido will have Kozuki Hiyori inherit the position of Shogun."
"Also, Kurozumi Orochi poisoned all the daimyos yesterday. The two incidents involving the Kurozumi family have shown that the daimyos are not reliable. To ensure the stability of Wano Country, Boss Kaido will serve as the protector of Wano Country moving forward. What do you think?"
Then Queen continued with a sinister grin on his face, "Of course, if you don't like this arrangement, you can always let her become the Oiran of the Red-Light District. Muhahaha."
