One Piece: My Spirit

Hiyori has seen too many tragedies like this, everyone wants to survive, but some people in this world and this country just don't want these people to survive!

"They paid for their bodies and labor. They don't have any wages but they can exchange for 'clean food'. However, they are not willing to eat these foods. Most of the time, they will secretly hide them and take them home, leaving them for the elderly or children at home."

While Aju was explaining, Yasushi Tono seemed to have finally noticed Aju, Hiyori and others in the distance.

"Xiao Nanzi!"

Yasushi Tono whispered a few words to a man who looked like a foreman over there, and then ran to the crowd with a happy face.

"Daddy!"

Xiao Nanzi hugged Toye Yasushi with tears on his face, and Toye Yasushi hugged Xiao Nanzi happily.

Tono Yasushi, the real identity is the former Baiwu daimyo, Shimoyue Yasushi, but now this appearance is no longer recognized by many people, and many people also think that Shimoyue Yasushi has long since died while fighting against Heitan Orochi and Kaido.

When Shuangyue Kang's family saw Aju, their pupils shrank obviously, but the expression on their faces was well concealed, but they didn't choose to reveal their identity.

Seeing Rihe, Aju, and the sad Xiaonanzi appear here, the Shuangyue Kang family probably guessed the reason for the incident.

"Oh, it's all my fault for not being able to tell you about it." Shuangyue Kang's family touched Xiao Nanzi's head: "Daddy is living a good life here, and he eats clean food every day. People in the town can finally eat clean food like me, and sometimes they can secretly take it home, you see."

Speaking of which, Shuangyue Kang's family carefully took out a big rice ball wrapped tightly in a handkerchief from his arms, and then immediately hid it as if he had a guilty conscience.

"Xiao Nanzi, you don't have to worry about Daddy, Daddy is doing well here!"

There was a happy and satisfied smile on the face of Shuangyue Kang's family. Clean food and food that could be "secretly" stored, this was already a very happy thing for him, not for the people of Caishen Town.

Shuangyue Kang's family wanted to touch Xiaonanzi's head again, but when they saw their dark palms, they retracted their half-stretched hands.

"Let's not talk about it, Daddy is going back to work, otherwise the foreman will be unhappy, and Xiao Nanzi has to be obedient. If you take care of yourself, Daddy will be very happy."

Rihe watched the back of Shuangyue Kang's family leaving in silence. She knew that this kind of thing was 'incorrect', but in fact she couldn't change anything, because this status quo was undoubtedly 'happy' for Shuangyue Kang's family and the people of Caishen Town.

It's just this kind of 'happiness' that makes Hiyori unhappy.

"Master Hiyori, there is one more place, please go with me next time."

Aju's sudden proposal brought Rihe back to his senses, and soon Aju brought Rihe to a workshop near the river. The people in and out of the workshop were all women, most of them were wearing worn-out clothes with many patches, and many of them were yellow and emaciated.

But what was unexpected was that these women did not look lifeless. Instead, they were the same as the people I saw on the construction site before, with smiles on their faces and brilliance in their eyes.

"This was originally an abandoned weaving workshop, but the 'Rocket Team' bought it half a month ago and reopened it. Now some of the women working here are from the town of Caishen and poor people who have similar experiences. They also don't have any wages, and only provide three meals of clean food."

Aju said with a normal face.

"There are often leftovers in the weaving workshop, and they will collect them"

Rihe listened to Aju's voice silently, and gradually guessed the reason why the 'Rocket Team' did this.

Afterwards, A-ju took Rihe to see other rocket teams that are currently working on other 'projects'. Among them, when passing through the streets of the West District, Rihe suddenly found something that seemed a little different.

As the largest area where casinos and taverns gather, the biggest feature of the West District is that there are a large number of people mixed with dragons and snakes. The area with a high crime rate, even the town government, almost turns a blind eye to these crimes.

Because of the withdrawal of the Crazy Death Group, the 'Rocket Group' is now in charge. Hiyori heard that after the Crazy Death Group quit, there were many gangs who wanted to take the opportunity to occupy the West District and eat a piece of fat, but in the end Hiyori never heard the names of these gangs again.

Rihe looked at the much cleaner streets around him. Most of the ordinary civilians and hawkers who were walking on the streets, and almost no hooligans who were originally in small groups and doing nothing, and the common money lenders and hackers were even rarer.

This made Hiyori, who was used to 'West End=crime and chaos', somewhat uncomfortable with the changes in front of her.

Aju seemed to be aware of Rihe's doubts, and a trace of pride and joy appeared on his face unconsciously, because Aju was also involved in the changes in the West District.

After occupying the West District, the first thing Shire did was to establish a set of rules in this chaotic West District!
Charles didn't have the time or thought to straighten out those intricate relationships in the West District, and the relationship network that was constantly being cut and straightened out, so he just cut it across the board.

Under the circumstance that Shire, Aju and others took action in person, in just three days, the originally chaotic and irregular West District was 'transformed' into what it is today.

Of course, within these three days, both Shire, Aju and the others had a lot of blood on their hands.

The West District, which seems to be stable now, is piled up with bloody lives behind it.

The rocket team's "cruel and domineering" method, which completely disregards interests and human relationships, has immediate results.

At the same time, the result was that everyone in the other gangs began to feel insecure, and the three-day cleansing in the West District was also known as the 'Three Bloody Three Days'!
Hiyori also seemed to recall something all of a sudden. Half a month ago, she vaguely remembered that Denjiro told her not to go out for a few days, and even accompanied her personally. At the same time, Hiyori also heard similar news from the banquets of those high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen during that time.

Now that I think about it, it should be the 'blood incident' that happened in the West District!
Of course, the Rocket Team's aggressive style of behavior is not completely without hidden dangers, at least this incident has also reached Heitan Orochi's ears through a certain channel.
