Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 123: From today onwards, you will be called "Hachisenguryu" (Fourth update, please subscribe!)

Kozuki Hiyori is the princess of the Kozuki family in Wano Country and the younger sister of Momosuke.

When the Kozuki clan was attacked by General Kurozumi Orochi, Hiyori and Momosuke's mother, with the power of the Time-Time Fruit, sent Momosuke, Kin'emon, and others twenty years into the future, which is the time when Luffy goes to the New World.

However, Hiyori was left behind in Wano Country due to concerns about the time travel process.

Afterwards, she wandered around and got lost, and after losing her retainers, she took on the name "Oiran Komurasaki" and became the number one beauty in Wano Country, even capturing the attention of Kurozumi Orochi.

She is also one of the three top-tier beauties in the One Piece world, along with Empress Hancock and Princess Shirahoshi.

As her thoughts wandered, Zhao Xu, playing the role of Zaraki Kenpachi, simply lowered his head and glanced at her, saying, "Where did you come from, little brat?"

"Aren't you afraid of this sword?"

Hiyori crawled out of the bushes, her two beautiful eyes curiously looking at Kenpachi, her own sword, and the swords of the Kaido subordinates lying around.

She truly wasn't afraid of swords.

A sword is a deadly weapon, but it is also a means of survival.

It is a symbol of power and a necessary existence for the survival of Wano Country.

Upon hearing Kenpachi's question, she simply smiled and shook her head, indicating that she wasn't afraid.

Then...

She looked at this burly man with admiration in her eyes.

"This person is so strong!" Hiyori thought to herself, "He easily defeated the true fighters of Kaido's pirate crew..."

She had originally hidden herself, hoping to evade the pursuit of Kaido's men.

But she never expected to witness such a scene.

True fighters are the embodiment of Kaido's pirate crew's power.

Even though Wano Country has many formidable warriors, they still fall in the face of many powerful true fighters, dying in battle...

This power is the true reason why Wano Country has never seen a rebellion.

However, now, a true fighter strong enough to stop a crying child has been killed, as if he were trash!

This scene was too astonishing, even she was stunned.

When she regained her senses, Kenpachi was already casually leaning against the side, resting his eyes.

Hiyori and Kaido's pirate crew, as well as General Kurozumi Orochi, are mortal enemies.

She saw someone daring enough to kill Kaido, so naturally, she wouldn't harbor any hatred.

But she also wouldn't have the intention to approach him voluntarily.

If she were to approach anyone she saw, she wouldn't be able to grow slowly and survive these twenty years, eventually getting close to her archenemy, Kurozumi Orochi.

Originally, she planned to retreat and escape from here.

However, when she was about to retreat after being captivated by what she saw earlier, she accidentally stepped on a dry branch and made some noise.

How could such a formidable warrior not hear the sound she made?

So, she gritted her teeth and boldly walked out.

In reality, she didn't know that with the current personality of Zhao Xu's Zaraki Kenpachi, even if a weakling made a sound, he wouldn't care at all!

In his eyes, there are only the strong!

Or rather, only through battle!

Kozuki Hiyori stepped forward, revealing an innocent smile.

As someone who has been hunted by Kaido since childhood, left her retainers and continued to survive, and even became a courtesan, she is not naive.

But she is very good at acting!

At this moment, showing an innocent smile can lower the opponent's vigilance!

In her heart, Kozuki Hiyori said to herself as she slowly approached.

Not too fast to arouse the opponent's vigilance, but not too timid to arouse suspicion.

However, in reality, Kozuki Hiyori's actions were completely in vain. She only heard Zaraki Kenpachi speak up, "Little brat, what's your name?"

"Ah?!" Kozuki Hiyori was stunned, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

Could it be that this man has discovered my identity?

Finding a member of the Kozuki bloodline could earn a considerable reward from Kurozumi Orochi!

"Don't have one?" Zaraki Kenpachi calmly said.

"Um..." Kozuki Hiyori's eyes turned, immediately giving a "reasonable" reason, "Samurai-sama, my head feels a bit dizzy, I don't remember my name."

Um, I have amnesia...

Amnesia is a convenient excuse. If there are any actions in the future that don't fit the "amnesia" persona, I can still cunningly say, "I have intermittent amnesia."

"I just don't remember my name, but I remember some other things," and other excuses.

Although this is a very cliché reason, when combined with Kozuki Hiyori's sincere expression, it is enough to make ordinary people trust her.

In reality, she often uses various tricks to deceive wealthy landowners who oppress the common people, obtaining a large amount of ill-gotten wealth from them, causing them to lose everything.

And those wealthy landowners, even if they know they have been deceived, still willingly come to her.

It's all because of her expression!

Although many people know her reputation, and even she herself has been tricked before.

But when faced with her smile again, they just can't believe that she would have any ill intentions!

...

"Yasutora... Zaraki Kenpachi suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Kozuki Hiyori was stunned.

"Then from now on, just call yourself Yasutora," Zaraki Kenpachi calmly said, "I just hope that there is at least one person in this world who can call themselves that."

"Here you go."

Kozuki Hiyori was stunned, and subconsciously murmured, "Yasutora..."

"Hmm, Yasutora," Zaraki Kenpachi calmly said, his voice as hoarse as ever, "Even in this world, I hope there is at least one person who can call themselves that."

Kozuki Hiyori paused for a moment, then showed a smile, "Okay, then I'll call myself Yasutora from now on."

Names and such don't mean anything to her.

After all, she can't use her own name in this country ruled by Kurozumi Orochi.

So it's not strange to change it to "Yasutora."

Although this name is indeed strange, she doesn't mind. What's the difference in using an alias?

However, she didn't see Zaraki Kenpachi, or rather, Zhao Xu, show a smile.

"Very well, I'll trouble you to play the role of Yasutora well and accompany me in this performance!"
