Pirate Shadow King

After the inspection was completed, the ship was pulled up by a ladder. The way of ascent was similar to that of crossing the red earth continent and entering the Holy Land of Mary Gioia.

Its location is right between Wano Country and Onigashima.

The areas closer to Wano Country are Usagiwan, Baiwu, and Suzugo. Moria landed at the port of Suzugo more than 20 years ago, and then a war broke out with Kaido.

Needless to say, the result was that although Moria missed the opportunity to enter Wano Country and become the Four Emperors, he also made Dahai remember his name.

As the surrounding ships moved further and further away, the people on the ship knocked on the captain's cabin door, but no one responded after knocking for a long time.

While people were waiting quietly, the ship's hull shook violently as if it had hit a rock, and the door quietly opened at this moment, only to see that there was no one inside.

At this moment, Moria was fluttering his two black wings like a fallen angel. Unexpectedly, he did not go directly to the Flower Capital, nor to the Ghost Island, but planned to go to Yiou in Jiuli.

Just hearing the name of Weaving Hat Village gives people a backward feeling, as if the people in the village rely on weaving hats to make a living.

As the name suggests, this place is indeed not very wealthy, and the villagers basically have one meal and no next meal.

The Capital of Flowers is still some distance away from here, so let's go to the nearest general to see the former general of Wano Country. He not only has this identity, but it is worth mentioning that he is also a swordsmith as famous as Shigetsuki Kozaburo.

Moria wanted to hear his thoughts. If he didn't support him, he would kill him directly. If he could own it for him, that would be great.

In a bamboo forest, the green bamboos sway in the wind, the bamboo shadows dance, and the breeze passes through, making a rustling sound.

Looking across the sea, thick smoke billows in the distance, emanating from densely packed factory chimneys.

There is a world of difference between the two sides.

These are arsenals built by Kaido to manufacture weapons. Even the world government has to purchase weapons here.

It was inconvenient to fly in the forest, so Moriah landed on the ground and walked around the bamboo forest for a few times. The green bamboos around him felt extremely familiar.

Through the keen identification of the five senses, Moriah came to a stream. At this time, the villages in Wano Country were still relatively poor and backward, and they should not be far from the water source.

I walked downstream along the river, but I couldn't find Wenli Village. I found a quiet courtyard in a dense forest.

The small courtyard is very hidden. If Moria's perception was not far superior to ordinary people, he would not have noticed it.

A breeze blew by, and bamboo leaves were spinning and flying in the air.

With a creak, a woman pushed open the door and came out, holding a bucket in her hand, as if she was going out to fetch water.

The woman has light green hair, wears a simple kimono, has slender legs, and exudes the unique aura of a mature woman. She wears a fang mask on her face, as if she is deliberately hiding something.

With a sword on her waist and a restrained aura, she survives alone and as a woman in this desolate bamboo forest. This is a woman with a story.

Without hesitation, Moria strode forward and quickly closed the distance between him and her.

As if she heard footsteps, the green-haired woman paused momentarily.

"Chong!"

With a soft sound, the woman suddenly drew her sword out of her body, turned around and raised the blade of the sword to point at the person approaching, her face became more solemn than ever before.

Being so alert made Moria a little dumbfounded, but she was even more suspicious of this woman's identity.

"Who are you? Did Orochi send you here? Or did Kaido send you here?" The woman pointed her knife at Moria and asked.

Moria's costume is not the costume of Wano, and it is extremely difficult to enter and leave Wano. The most likely person is a member of the Beasts Pirates.

Of course, this is just a woman’s own conjecture.

"You are wrong, none of them." Moria expressed that he did not mean any harm. "To tell you the truth, this is my first time..."

"Wrong... This is the second time I have come to Wano Country. The first time was 23 years ago!"

23 years ago, he came full of success and left empty-handed. Now he will definitely not make the same mistake again. He will work harder to take back what he lost!

"Aren't you from Kaido?" The woman said, already believing Moriah's words. She slowly put the long sword into its sheath, and her guarded look became somewhat restrained.

Moria nodded.

"Then what are you doing here? And how did you get in...huh?" the woman asked suspiciously, looking at Moriah carefully up and down as she spoke, and finally stopped at the corner of his head.

The sound stopped abruptly.

The horns on the head are indeed the symbol of the Beast Pirates, but the horns on the head do not mean that they are members of the Beast Pirates.

Moria shook his horns and explained: "Don't think too much, I am born with it."

"I don't want anything from you, I just want to ask you, how to get to Wenli Village?"

"Answer my question first..." The woman stared at Moriah, seeming a little stubborn.

Moria didn't want to waste words with this outsider, and said frankly: "The thing I was interested in was taken away by others 23 years ago, and now I want to take it back."

"Now, I answered your question, can you answer mine?"

The woman didn't seem to immediately understand the meaning of Moriah's words, but hearing the urgency of his question, she didn't make things difficult again.

When Moria's figure had disappeared, the woman was still talking about what Moria had just said: "What did he fall in love with 23 years ago? What did he fall in love with!? 23 years ago..."

"23 years ago...23 years ago!!?"

Suddenly remembering something, the woman's expression changed instantly.

There was only one major incident 23 years ago, and it was the battle between Kaido and a pirate group behind Rei.

And that person just now was the tomb robber!

It was he who stole Ryoma Shigetsuki's body and Shusui, the famous national treasure of Wano Country.

Just as he was about to catch up, he took two quick steps, but suddenly he remembered something and slowly stopped.

The woman sighed and murmured to herself.

How can a person who shouldn't exist in the world care about this?

Heartbroken, he walked to the stream, leaned down, took off his mask, and saw a beautiful face reflected in the water. He took a handful of water and washed his cheeks. When the image appeared again in the water, the man couldn't help but stare blankly. .

"Twenty years, it seems like yesterday, I will never forget that day..." the woman said unconsciously.

20 years! ?

Memories suddenly flooded into my mind, and a letter from my late husband seemed to appear in my mind: If I fail in the crusade against Kaido and die, then the person who defeats Kaido will be there 20 years later.

20 years! ?It has been 20 years now, and that person...could it be...

The reflection in the water swayed slightly. She was not a person in the world. If she followed the rules, she would not be alive, but something unexpected happened...

Twenty years ago, she was supposed to die when the Beast Pirates snatched her away, but when she had the idea of ​​​​death, something suddenly seemed to be missing from her mind, and she could not die with peace of mind.

If she dies, who will be in charge of the Guangyue family?By then, even those who are loyal to the Kozuki family will be just a group of loose sand without cohesion!

And the memory she lost was about Kozuki Momonosuke!

She is Kozuki Momonosuke's mother, Mrs. Toki!
