章節 237: 237. Enemy?
Kaido returned to his base, Onigashima. He threw down the bagua and sat down on the floor before taking out a big gourd and chugging it down.
Sake dripped down from his mouth. He finished the entire gourd in one sitting.
Pereperepere.
At this moment a small den-den mushi next to him rang. Kaido threw down the bottle and picked up the call.
"Kaido-san, there is news from New World."
From the other side came Queen's voice.
Kaido grumbled, "When did you start stammering? Just say it already."
Queen went silent for a while before saying slowly, "Big Mom is dead."
Hm?
Kaido's eyes went wide. He was truly shocked this time.
"Who killed her? It can't be those Navy dogs, was it the World Government?"
"Neither. It was that marine you fought two years ago."
Kaido sat up straight. A strange light flashed through his eyes.
"When did this happen?"
"A few days ago."
Kaido rested his chin on his arm and thought. He killed Big Mom and hitched a ride to Wano?
"Kaido-san, I heard he is here."
Kaido scuffed, "So what? Should I be scared of him?!"
Queen replied, "Kozuki remnants are trying to make a mess. Oden's son seems to have returned to Wano with his vassals, they are gathering an army."
Kaido nonchalantly said, "Then kill them all. I don't need disobedient dogs."
After saying that he hung up. Though he spoke rather carelessly Kaido was thinking a lot about what was currently happening and what Leo's goal was in Wano.
...
Leo was sitting on a bench. He was leaning against the wall of a house and meditating when his spiritual sense picked up a group coming towards the town.
"Oh, a big group."
He looked at the town entrance. After a while a group entered the town.
Luffy and company saw Leo. They weren't surprised. Since Flare was here it was obvious he would be here as well.
Law paused for a moment when he saw Leo. He hesitated whether to go forward or not.
Zoro saw his hesitation and said, "Don't worry. If you were evil in teacher's eyes you would be dead even before we entered the town."
Law nodded and walked forward.
"They have food?"
The man wearing Kimono suddenly said. He saw several children eating fruits as he walked through the streets.
Chopper asked, "I thought only some towns had food."
Flare explained, "Sir got some food from the officials."
Officials? Aren't they Orochi's men? That is to say... he snatched food? A marine being a thief?
All of them had peculiar expressions on their faces.
When they reached Leo he asked, "Where is that idiot?"
Everyone fell silent when they heard him.
Flare said, "Kaido was onto us. He stayed back for us to escape."
Leo frowned. After a second he said, "It's fine. He won't die that easily."
He led everyone inside the house.
When they walked inside Kinemon saw Tsuru and Kiku, he was shocked and yelled out happily.
"Otsuru! Kiku! You guys are alive!"
Tama was sleeping. She woke up when she heard him yell. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the group of people, she spotted Zoro and Flare. So she asked.
"Where is big brother Luffy?"
Kinemon who was happy to see Tsuru and Kiku turned silent. The rest didn't speak as well. This time Flare hesitated to speak.
Leo smiled lightly and said, "He had some other business. He will come back in a few days."
Everyone except Zoro and Flare were surprised when they saw Leo speak so kindly to her.
"Oh, ok."
Tama went out to wash her face before coming back in. Tsuru gave her a glass of fruit juice. She happily sipped on it.
Seeing Tama was taken care of Leo asked, "You know him?"
Tsuru replied, "He is my husband."
Ehhhhh?!
Everyone looked at Kinemon incredulously.
"What?! Why is it so hard to believe?!"
Hearing his angry retort everyone smiled awkwardly.
Leo ignored them and asked Zoro, "When do you plan to attack? How many men you got so far?"
Zoro replied, "Teacher, we plan to attack Onigashima on the night of the fire festival. So far we got over a thousand men. Kinemon and Kanjuro are preparing to meet up with the other vassals, we are hoping they might provide help."
Leo rubbed his chin. This is the same as that prophecy. That woman, Toki... is her powers solely dependent on her devil fruit or was she born with it, like Shirahoshi.
At this time Chopper nudged Zoro and asked, "Why do you keep calling him teacher?"
Zoro replied, "Because he taught me for the last two years."
"He taught you?!"
It wasn't just Chopper. The other Strawhats were shocked as well. What does it mean for a marine to teach a pirate, and an infamous one as Zoro. They were wanted by the World Government, The World Government!
Law had a peculiar look in his eyes.
Usopp patted Zoro's shoulder and said, "That's great. He won't catch us now since you are his student... right?"
Zoro was lazy to respond to him.
Leo raised his head and said, "Alright, I understand your plans. If it might help, one of Oden's vassals, Ashura Dogi was here earlier."
Kinemon was startled to hear that and stood up excitedly, "Sir, where is he now?"
Leo shrugged, "How would I know?"
Tsuru spoke up, "He went to the mountains. That's their base, you will certainly find him there."
Kinemon nodded and stood up, "We can't lose a single moment. Me and Kanjuro will seek him out, in the mean time I leave lord Momonosuke in your hands, Otsuru."
Tsuru nodded.
Just as he was about to leave with Kanjuro Leo spoke.
"You can go, but he must stay. I have some questions for him."
Leo pointed to Kanjuro.
Before Kinemon could ask why Flare flashed infront of Kanjuro and sunk his fist into his gut. Kanjuro bent down like a shrimp.
Flare grabbed his head and slammed it on the ground.
"No blood here. Tama is watching."
Flare pulled back his strength and grabbed Kanjuro by his neck before cuffing him with kairoseki.
The strawhats, Kinemon, Momonosuke and the rest were shocked. They didn't expect such a drastic change.
"I thought he was your teacher! Why is he attacking us?!"
Usopp was panicking and asked Zoro.
Contrary to his expectations Zoro didn't reply and asked Leo, "Teacher, is there something wrong with him?"
Leo curled his lips, "Of course there is. He is a spy."
