Pirates: Davy Jones is the captain of the Dread Ghost

Chapter 373 Juzhicheng cannot argue

In the shadow of the ruins of Onigashima and the Flower City, Momo's assistant held the handle of his knife and paced back and forth anxiously.

"Why haven't you come back?" He was already a little suspicious, "Kiuzhicheng, he..."

"His Royal Highness Momonosuke." A-nin curled his lips, "I think he may have taken refuge with the Shuoyue family because he saw that the situation was not good."

When it comes to the Shigetsuki family, Momonosuke feels a little tight in his chest.

He never imagined that the man who was so loyal to his father and grandfather would now look so hateful!

A traitor, he is indeed a traitor, I shouldn't believe him... If there weren't too many people in the general's mansion, I should really chop him with a knife!
A-nin's words hurt Momonosuke.

He thought that Yizang had also betrayed him, and Kikuchi-cheng was Yizo's younger brother. Could it be that as A-nin said, Kikuchi-cheng...

"Your Highness Momonosuke!" At this time, a familiar call pulled him out of his thoughts.

I saw Kiku no Cheng, who was wearing a kimono and with his hair styled in a Ji style, leading two men with rough looks and walking over quickly.

Kinemon, Kanjuro and a dozen samurai who were resting aside all got up and came over.

"His Royal Highness Momonosuke." Kikinochei happily extended his hand to indicate, "These two are people with lofty ideals who are willing to join us."

"So few?" A-Nin curled his lips.

Not long ago, both Kanjuro and Kikunoshi were ordered to recruit people.

Kanjuro brought back more than a dozen people, but Kikunoshi only brought back two people. In comparison, it was indeed too few.

Momonosuke was secretly relieved when he saw that Kikinochei did not abandon him, but he was a little dissatisfied when he saw that there were only two of them, looking lazy.

"Tell me, why do you want to follow me?" he asked.

One of them looked at Momonosuke from beginning to end, then squinted his eyes and said eloquently:
"I can't do anything about it. I was doing well as a bandit before, but those soldiers from the Deep Sea Empire came and cut off my money. They wanted me everywhere, so I had no choice but to come..."

With a sonorous sound, Kanjuro pulled out the katana from his sheath that looked like a writing brush and placed it on the man's neck. The man was so frightened that he suddenly jumped up and raised his hands.

"How dare you be rude to His Highness Momonosuke?" Kanjuro was filled with indignation. "Momonosuke's father is the famous Oden Daimyo. How dare you call yourself 'I'?"

"I...I...I..."

Without waiting for the man to explain, Kanjuro swiped the knife, and bright red sprayed out.

The man covered his throat with his hands in horror, and then fell straight to the ground. After trembling for a while, he stopped moving like an old hen that had been bled.

Momonosuke frowned. Seeing the blood, he felt a desire to vomit and took two steps back silently.

Kanjuro immediately knelt down in front of him: "Your Highness Momonosuke, I am guilty, please punish me. I really can't see him humiliating His Highness Oden. In a moment of urgency, I..."

"It's okay...it doesn't matter..." Momonosuke swallowed the discomfort in his throat, "You did a good job...you are very loyal...you did the right thing."

Juzhicheng hesitated for a while, his previous joy disappeared, and he stood aside silently.

This was the manpower he had tried his best to find. Others, including some old acquaintances, were unwilling to rebel.

He didn't even understand how Kanjuro found so many helpers.

The other person was already so frightened that he fell to the ground and shouted loudly:
"Your Highness, spare your life!"

"The villain... The villain was originally a commoner who was persecuted by the Deep Sea Empire and the Shuoyue Family. When he heard that His Highness had returned, his admiration was like the waves of Wano Country, and he immediately followed him!"

"My loyalty can be measured by the sun and the moon!"

Ah Ren couldn't help but said to the side: "Your Highness, this is what the people want. The tyranny of the Deep Sea Empire and the Shuoyue Family is doomed that their rule will not last long."

After hearing this, Momonosuke's brows finally relaxed a little, smiled slightly, and said, "Very good."

Kikuchi Cheng pursed his red lips tightly because he knew the truth of the matter.

Nowadays, ordinary Wano people can have enough to eat, save some spare money, and have the opportunity to travel overseas. Who is willing to live in danger as a rebel?

They are nothing more than the bandits, gangsters, and gangsters from before.

How can any persecuted civilians come to follow?
The man who was kneeling on the ground was a gangster before. When the Yasu family was pretending to be crazy and helping the poor in Ebisu town, he had oppressed the Yasu family and robbed them in the town.

Later, the situation in Wano Country changed drastically, and he offended the current general of Wano Country. He felt frightened and hid in the mountains and fields until today.

In fact, the Shuoyue Kang family has long forgotten that there is a person like him, and even if they meet now, they may not be able to remember him.Kikuchi Cheng knew this, but looking at the atmosphere in front of him, he was unwilling to say it, lest it reduce the already low morale.

However, Momonosuke turned around and looked at it for a long time, still a little frustrated.

Why is it different from what Kinemon, Anin, Kanjuro, and Raizo said?
I have revealed my identity, why are there so many people following me?

How can we conquer Wano and restore the glory of our father and grandfather?

Kin'emon seemed to have noticed Momonosuke's frustration and walked up to him and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. Didn't Raizo use 'Chishu' to contact us yesterday?"

"He, Inuarashi, Neko Viper, and an army of fur tribes have arrived at the waters outside Wano. However, there are too many Deep Sea Empire ships patrolling, and a large group of them cannot sneak in."

"We have agreed to start an uprising in Wano, and then cooperate with them internally and externally to regain the position of general of Wano first, and then attack Phoenix Island."

"Your Highness, don't worry. The dozen or so people in front of you are our foundation. As long as we make a splash, warriors who admire your reputation will only come in a steady stream."

Momonosuke hesitated: "Is this really the case?"

"It will definitely be like this!" Kanjuro, whose whole face was covered with white powder, said firmly, "Your Highness, didn't Anin say that? Everyone in Wano is looking forward to your return."

A-nin was pushed out, and he quickly said: "Yes, Your Highness. They have just been confused by Kaido and Orochi's strategy of fooling the people for many years, and were frightened by the Deep Sea Empire and the Shigetsuki Yasu family."

"We just need to respond to public opinion! Your Highness, make up your mind to seize the research institute in Jiuri Harbor first and let everyone in Wano know that you are back!"

"In that research institute, the noise of machines is heard every day and night, and suspicious powder is thrown into the sea. It is definitely not a good thing!"

"If we seize and destroy it, it will be equivalent to helping the people of Jiuli. They will naturally be grateful to us!"

After hearing A-nin's words, Momonosuke couldn't help but nod his head.

Because of Kaido, he was quite disgusted with these steel behemoths brought from the outside world.

But Kikuchi Cheng couldn't bear it any longer. He paused for a moment and walked out: "Your Highness, I object to destroying that machine!"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him and frowned.

A-Nin even raised his voice.

"It's you again! You said you didn't believe it when the Shigetsuki family and Izo rebelled, and you saw the result. Now we say that the machine is harmful to the country of Wano, and you don't believe it again, do you?"

Momonosuke also stared at Kikunocheng with a cold face.

Kikunochei was under great pressure, but he still said: "I have inquired about it. The machine and the powder are used to solve the pollution problem in Wano Island and the sea outside..."

"It's impossible! Kikunouchi, you're confused!" Kanjuro shook his head repeatedly, "As Ren said, people from the Deep Sea Empire would be so kind to help us, Wano Country?"

Kinemon couldn't help but sigh, and felt sad: "Kiku no Cheng, do you want to learn from your brother and regard all outsiders as good?"

Momonosuke also looked disappointed.

Juzhicheng saw that everyone did not believe him, and knew that there was no need to say what he was going to say next.

That machine and powder can obviously purify pollution... The people in Jiuli said so, and they did feel the changes in the water quality little by little.

He asked this question one by one, and the answers he got were all similar. Some people did complain that the sound was too loud, but the benefits were obvious.

Ju Zhicheng is really incapable of making excuses.

Every time he planned to say something, these people would use the matter of Brother Izang to pressure him. He was not a temperless person, and he had already suppressed a ball of fire in his heart.

"Okay, okay." He said in a bad tone, "If you don't believe it, forget it."

"Presumptuous!" Kanjuro pointed at Kikinochei's nose, "What tone are you talking about? Your Highness Momonosuke is right here!"

"I...sigh..." Juzhicheng choked in his throat, "I won't say anything anymore, okay?"

Everyone sneered.

At this moment, Kikuchi Cheng suddenly felt a strange feeling, as if his originally blocked mind suddenly opened up.

He looked at the people in front of him and felt that they were extremely strange.

These people are crazy, all of them.
