People are full of pirates

Chapter 419 Gan, Kaido ran away with a bucket!
but.

That was all ten years ago. Kurotan Orochi was able to rule Wano for so many years because of his allies, the Hundred Beasts Pirates and Kaido.

As long as he destroys the Hundred Beasts Pirates, the haze that hangs over the people of Wano Country will naturally dissipate.

"In the entire Flower City area, how many people like you are hiding in the mountains because of heavy taxes?"

Nuo Xia suddenly spoke and asked the bandit boy in the lead.

"Report to your lord." The bandit boy said tremblingly, "there have been a lot more in the past two years. Now, it is estimated that there must be three or four thousand..."

Three or four thousand.

Nuo Xia groaned and put down the teacup in her hand.

The City of Flowers is already the most prosperous and affluent place in the entire Wano Country, and there are so many people who have become bandits in this kind of place.

It is conceivable how bad the situation is in the more barren and chaotic areas such as Jiuli, Tuwan, and Linghou.

And the Bandit Rebellion is just a small microcosm of the current situation of Wano Country under the high-handed rule of the Hundred Beasts Pirates.

Nuo Xia looked at Ah He, who put his palms together again, and cast a pleading look at him, Nuo Xia sighed, and finally nodded slightly to her.

A smile suddenly appeared on Ah He's face, while Nuo Xia turned his eyes to look at the group of bandits next to him.

"Clean up all the tables and chairs that you cut down, and then go."

The bandits, who were kneeling on the ground anxiously, suddenly raised their heads in surprise when they heard such a sentence, and couldn't believe their ears.

"Hurry up, before I regret it." Nuo Xia added lightly.

"Yes... yes, my lord!"

A group of bandits didn't dare to delay any longer, got up in a panic, and hurriedly cleaned up the chaotic tea shed and restored it to its original state.

A moment later, under the leadership of the young man in charge, all the thieves knelt down to Nuo Xia and the proprietress Ah He, respectfully kowtowed three times, and then retreated cautiously.

"Eh?"

Ah He suddenly found something under the corner of the table, bent down to pick it up, and was shocked to find that it was the purse she had given to those teenagers before.

"Ugh……"

Looking at the back of the distant mountains and forests gradually disappearing, she sighed, said nothing, and silently lowered her head and wiped the table.

Nuo Xia looked at her busy figure, but didn't speak. After silently drinking the last cup of tea, she left some money, and then disappeared in place with a flicker of her figure.

Morning tea time is over, it's time to get down to business.

……

After half an hour.

On the coastal border of Wano Country, a beam of light flew out of the cliff and headed straight to the north.

In the blue light of thunder, Nuo Xia was expressionless.

On the way out of the teahouse just now, he has probably searched every inch of Wano country with his knowledge and knowledge, but he has not found half of the officials of the Hundred Beasts Pirates.

He was not surprised by this.

After he appeared at the tea party last month and killed BIGMOM, the news that he will follow up with the Hundred Beasts Pirates is spreading wildly in the whole new world.

Even Galio VI who were thousands of kilometers away had heard the rumors, not to mention the Beasts Pirates, probably already entered the highest state of alert.

In the original Wano country, there were many cadres of the Hundred Beasts Pirates scattered in the town, but they are nowhere to be seen now, apparently all of them were recalled by Kaido.

Waiting for work with ease, ready to fight...

Looking at the far end of the coastline, Nuo Xia sneered, all the troops of the Beasts Pirates were clearly concentrated on the island of ghosts.

"It just happened to save trouble!"

Nuo Xia's eyes were cold and cold. The Beasts Pirates did not want to repeat Charlotte's mistake, so they shrunk down and made full preparations.

But to him, there is no difference at all!

……

Ghost Island.

This is a small and medium-sized island nearly a hundred kilometers away from the northern part of Wano Country. It looks like a giant horn of a ghost. The palace complex in the center of the island is the headquarters of the Hundred Beasts Pirates.

Rumble!
The muffled sound of thunder rolled from the sky, and the light of the thunder stopped right above the palace complex, and after it dissipated, Nuo Xia's figure was revealed.

"strangeness."

Nuo Xia looked down, her eyes darting back and forth in the palace complex, her brows were slightly frowned, a little puzzled.

The huge palace complex was deserted and quiet, except for the faint cold flames floating in the empty eyes of the giant ghost, and the whole island could hardly feel the breath of any living people.

Is there an ambush?
This was an idea that came to Nuo Xia's mind, but it was quickly rejected by him.

After three years of practice and honing, his current knowledge is already at the top of the world, not to mention the three disasters and those ordinary cadres, even Kaido can't even think about hiding under his induction.

If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it, just grab someone and ask.

Swish!
The body flickered, and the next moment, Nuo Xia landed on the steps directly in front of the palace, looking into the gate.

There are very few living creatures that can be sensed in the entire ghost island, and the only human being is sitting on the threshold of this gate.

It was a tall figure wearing a Prajna mask and red demon horns. The white cloak he was wearing was tattered and dirty, and his body was covered with scars from being beaten and flattened.

The other party had been sitting there for a long time, as if they were just waiting for him, but at this moment when Nuo Xia finally appeared, he stood up abruptly.

"Ghost people?"

Nuo Xia's gaze was first attracted by the red devil's horns, and when he saw the other party stand up, he frowned slightly, and said coldly:

"Take off the mask, I have a few questions for you."

"Hmm!"

The opponent's movements were quite straightforward. He tore off the Prajna mask and threw it aside. He tossed his long white hair with gradient colors, revealing a beautiful and charming face.

girl?
Nuo Xia was slightly taken aback, her eyes showing surprise.

The girl in front of her was tall and slim, with proud curves, but she was completely covered by the white cloak just now, and she didn't even notice it just now.

"You are finally here, Master Nuo Xia!"

On the face of the white-haired girl, there was no look of fear and timidity. Instead, she stood on tiptoe with her hands behind her back, and looked up with a happy smile:

"I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"

The young girl has a sassy temperament, with only a heroic look in her eyebrows and eyes, but when she smiles, her face full of scars and dimples are rippling, but she is extraordinarily sweet and moving.

That appearance inexplicably reminded Nuo Xia that when he first met Nuo Qigao, his heart softened, his murderous aura dissipated, and his voice became much softer:

"Who are you, Kaido?"

"Yamato! My name is Romanov Yamato!"

The girl's answer was straightforward and unexpected, "Kaido, that guy has already escaped!"

Romanov Yamato ?

Nuo Xia was stunned, but soon his attention was attracted by the girl's second sentence, and he frowned: "What did you say? Kaido ran away?"

"Yes, Master Nuo Xia!"

The white-haired girl couldn't help grinning loudly, as if the mention of this matter made her very happy, "That despicable man didn't dare to be your enemy at all. After hearing about Wan Guo, he hesitated for several days. In the end, he lost all his family property, took his cadres to sea and ran away!"

ha?
After getting the girl's confirmation, Nuo Xia finally couldn't hide her astonishment.

What are you doing!

I came all the way from thousands of miles away, and I was ready to fight ten thousand with one enemy.

In the end you told me...

——Kaido ran away with a bucket overnight?

…………

After a minute.

On both sides of the steps in front of the threshold, the two sat opposite each other. Nuo Xia crossed his legs, pinched his chin, and chewed what the girl said just now. His face was filled with disbelief, and he still couldn't believe this absurd fact.

The majestic emperor of the sea, the undead Kaido known as "the strongest creature in the world", when he heard that he was going to visit, he took all his subordinates and ran away overnight. The house was moved very clean, leaving only an empty lair.

This is just great.

The vast new world, where can I find it?

"What I said is true, you just believe me, Master Nuo Xia!"

A girl's voice came from beside her ear.

"It's not that I suspect you're lying to me, it's just that the news is a bit outrageous, you have to let me digest it..."

Nuo Xia shook his head and sighed. Although Kaido was an enemy in his eyes before, he was still the image of a generation of heroes who ruled the sea. He even dared to break into the headquarters alone to seek death, and still laughed arrogantly after all the punishments.

Well, it's a complete collapse of the human design.

He looked up at the white-haired girl opposite, and asked curiously:
"Oh, by the way, speaking of it, Yamato, who are you from Kaido? Judging by the horns of your head, you should be from his family, right? Why are you the only one staying on the ghost island?"

"That guy..." Yamato curled his lips, "In terms of blood, he is my father. If you didn't ask me, I don't want to admit it..."

The white-haired girl seemed to trust her very much, so she didn't need to ask Nuo Xia a single sentence, she was like a bean pouring out of a bamboo tube, and she frankly shook out her life experience.

Kozuki Oden.

This is the girl's original name, or rather, her second name.

Ten years ago, as a little girl, she witnessed the Kozuki Oden cooking incident with her own eyes. Since then, she has always worshiped Oden and considered herself a man for a long time. She even changed her name in order to become a man like Oden.

As for the pirate forces headed by her father Kaido, due to her straightforward nature, jealousy, and strong sense of justice, she can be said to hate it deeply, and has always wanted to defeat her father, liberate the country of Wano, and end the Hundred Beasts Pirates And the brutal rule of Heitan Orochi.

She has always thought so, and has always done so.

However, girls' dreams of justice are often vulnerable to the cruelty of reality.

She had angrily reprimanded Kaido countless times to stop the atrocities, and challenged Kaido countless times, only to be ridiculed and ridiculed, and Kaido beat her so many times for this.

Even under impatience, he and several other warriors were imprisoned in the cave of Guidao for ten days, almost starving to death.

Kaido also put a special bomb chain on her wrist, threatening that she would be blown to pieces immediately if she dared to go out to sea and take a step outside Wano Country.

Fear, evil, despicable... This is Kaido as a father, synonymous with the image in Yamato's eyes.

Until, a year later.

In the Battle of Har Island, Kaido failed to defeat Nuo Xia, and became furious after returning. Yamato was also hit by Chi Yu and was severely beaten.

However, it was precisely because of this that she became very curious about Nuo Xia, who was only twenty years old and could draw with her father, and began to secretly use various means to find out information about Nuo Xia.

Asking people around, collecting newspapers... She knows more and more about Nuo Xia, and at the same time she admires Nuo Xia more and more, she also knows more about the outside world.

The samurai spirit she had always believed in was eclipsed. She finally woke up and realized that the approach and route like Mita's would not be able to solve Wano Country's problems.

From that day on, Yamato changed his surname to Romanov, and always dreamed that one day he could escape to sea, become an excellent navy, fight side by side with Nuo Xia, completely defeat the Beast Pirates, and save this hell-bound man. country.

Unfortunately……

"I can't escape..."

Nuo Xia turned her head and saw that Yamato, who was sitting opposite, had already sat in front of her at some point, hugging her knees, with an aggrieved face, "Master Nuo Xia, do you know that I , I've always wanted to go to Marin Fando to see you, but..."

She shook the bomb bracelet in frustration, "That nasty man has never untied this, as soon as I leave the waters of Wano Country, it will..."

Nuo Xia's eyes fell on it, a bomb that would explode automatically when leaving a certain area?How long is it valid?
He has never seen this kind of black technology in the headquarters.

"let me see."

He frowned, feeling that there must be something strange inside, and stretched out a hand, Yamato immediately raised his arms obediently.

Nuo Xia pinched the girl's wrist and observed carefully for a while. After scanning the internal structure of the bracelet with knowledge, she shook her head dumbfounded.

"What... what's wrong?" Yamato looked at him nervously.

"You were deceived by Kaido, Yamato." Nuo Xia sighed, and put down the girl's wrist, "Those traps above are just a disguise, and this bracelet is just an ordinary Hailoushi handcuffs."

"fake?"

Yamato's eyes widened, and he cried out in surprise, "How could that be! I obviously asked Aunt Sena secretly, she has always loved me very much, she shouldn't..."

"I love you because you are Kaido's daughter and the only heir to the Beasts Pirates family business."

Nuo Xia shook her head, "If you had known the truth about the bomb bracelet, you would have sneaked out of Wano country long ago. What will she have to explain to the furious Kaido?"

"Oh yes..."

Yamato's expression suddenly lost, she was silent for a long time, raised her arms, squinted at the bracelet that had trapped her for ten years in the sunlight, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Nuo Xia touched her head, but it was not comforting, so she simply changed the subject: "Although you and Kaido have a bad relationship, you are her daughter after all. This time he left the island of ghosts. I took it away, why didn't I take you with me?"
