Pirate Shadow King

After walking around for a long distance, the outline of the village appeared in sight. If someone hadn't told him, Moria would still be wandering in the bamboo forest at this moment.

The two places are far apart, one is at the source of the stream and the other is at the most downstream.

The originally crystal clear river has become a little strange. Although it cannot be described as filthy, it faintly exudes a special smell, as if someone is spreading medicine here. There is not a single living thing in the water, even There are no snails or insects either.

Wengli Village is like a ghost village at the moment, quiet and a bit crowded. Most of the people here were forced to work in factories and died there. The remaining part moved due to the deterioration of the living environment and the persecution of the Beasts Pirates. away from here.

As expected, Moriah found the person he was looking for in a courtyard under the tree house.

A child, an old man, and a yellow dog.

The old man wearing a Tengu mask was basking in the sun, while the little girl was holding a round object that seemed to be woven from bamboo, with something similar to tea leaves hanging on it.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was not the buds of a tree. It tasted very bitter and had no nutrition, but it was not poisonous and would not cause hunger in the stomach.

The environment is polluted and there is nothing edible around. Being able to collect these sprouts is already a blessing among misfortunes.

Although relocation can improve life, the entire Wano Country has fallen under the rule of the Orochi, and people in villages everywhere are living in dire straits.

Like a ghost, a black shadow flashed past. Moriah had already arrived in front of the little girl. She held the bud between her fingers and smelled it at the end of her nose.

"...What does this smell like?"

The smell, Moria only felt, was very pungent. Not only did it not bring about appetite, it was simply the perfect holy medicine to induce vomiting.

"Is this something for humans to eat?" Moria put the thing back. If it were fed to the pigs in normal years, the pigs would not eat it.

"Yeah!" Suddenly a person appeared in front of her, with a green face and fangs. The little girl was startled, and the half-dried buds in her hands were scattered on the ground.

But then he ignored the surprise and was too busy to pick up the dust and things scattered on the ground bit by bit.

What looks like chaff in his eyes is an out-of-reach delicacy in the eyes of others.

"Can you eat this?" Seeing the little girl with no legs, Moriah seemed to be seeing her own daughter, and asked while helping to pick up the green buds.

"This stuff is delicious. You can fry it, or add it to soup and cook it together..." The girl and Moriah picked up all the things. The former shook the bamboo product in his hand, and the dust was filtered out. .

"Arigado!" The girl hurriedly bowed to express her gratitude. She didn't hold any grudge because Moria scared her. Then she suddenly remembered something and asked doubtfully: "Huh? Who are you? Why did you appear in the little girl's house? At home?"

Moria put his hand into the void, and a black crack seemed to appear in the air. When his hand came out again, his palm was full of candies and cookies for children.

Although I have never seen anything like this, I can tell what these are by the smell.

"Is this for the little girl?" the girl asked tentatively, swallowing her saliva as she spoke, her eyes staring directly at the thing in Moria's hand.

"of course."

After receiving a positive answer, the girl held the things in her arms and bowed ninety degrees again. Although she desperately wanted to taste these things, her reason told her not to do so.

Because she has to hoard things like a squirrel to avoid starving for nine meals in three days.

While the girl was immersed in joy with a happy expression on her face, a voice sounded from behind her.

"Ayu, come to me quickly, don't trust strangers, he is very dangerous!" An old voice sounded behind him.

Moria followed the sound, and when their eyes met, the man felt a surge of energy and blood in his body.

Tengu Shan Feiche was extremely shocked in his heart. He didn't notice Moria the first time he appeared.

After that, Tengu Shan took a closer look at the person in front of him. The more he looked at him, the more frightened he became. He already had a label in his heart. This person was definitely not a simple person.

"But...he gave the little girl a lot of food, so he doesn't look like a bad person." The girl named Ayu looked at Moria and then at Tenguyama Hitotsu, and explained.

Moria grinned and said: "Old general, don't judge people by their appearance. As everyone knows, the fact that Wazhi Country is in such a predicament has nothing to do with you judging people by their appearance and listening to slander."

Tenguyama Fei Te is now Kozuki Sukiyaki, and suddenly he feels chills all over his body. He feels that even with the mask on, he seems to be standing naked in front of Moriah. It seems that everything about him is no longer a secret. .

"I don't know what you are talking about. You have recognized the wrong person. Now I ask you to leave this house!" Kozuki Sukiyaki said firmly.

Seeing that he was being disrespectful, Moriah was not used to it and sneered: "Do you really think I don't know who you are, Guangyue..."

"Akidou sack!" After hearing the word "Kotsuki", Kotsuki Sukiyaki interrupted quickly, and then his attitude changed 180 degrees: "Please come in!"

Kozuki Sukiyaki didn't want anyone to know his identity, especially since Ayu was still around.

"Ayu, please wait here." After saying this, Bian led Moria into the house and did not forget to close the door, leaving Ayu confused.

inside the house.

Kozuki Sukiyaki stared at the person in front of him and asked: "Who are you? Why do you know my identity and what is your purpose!!"

"You don't know who I am. As for my purpose, there are two. As for the first one? I want to eat the entire country of Wano!" Moria Lion said loudly, seeing Guangyue Shouxi Shao's expression changed, and he added: "Don't worry, under my rule, Wano Country will only become more powerful, and people will be fed and warmed."

Hearing Moria's purpose, Kozuki Sukiyaki only felt a little harsh. He didn't want the Kozuki family's position as the general of Wano Country to end with him, but there was nothing he could do.

Because Kozuki Sukiyaki also lost the memory of Kozuki Momonosuke, Wano Country is feudal and conservative, and women have never been able to serve as generals.

Kozuki Sukiyaki was hesitant and did not express his position immediately, so Moriah said coldly: "I am just here to inform you in advance. Whether you agree or disagree has no impact on the final result."

Moriah's words made Kozuki Sukiyaki seem to have aged a few years. He pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "As long as you can feed and clothe the people of Wano Country, then it is a gift from God." My greatest gift, I don’t object to it, but the premise is that you can drive those evil spirits out of Wano Country..."

Kozuki Sukiyaki has been imprisoned for many years. 23 years ago, Moria stole the national treasure and fought against Kaido without knowing it. He also strictly implemented a closed-door policy during his and Orochi's rule, resulting in no knowledge of the outside world.

Of course, I don’t know how the sea has changed in the past two years.

"It is entirely possible to drive these evil ghosts out of Wano Country..." Moria smiled and said the most important purpose of this trip: "If you can tell me where Pluto is hiding in Wano Country... , then our chances of winning will be greater.”

At the mention of Pluto, Kozuki Sukiyaki's childish eyes suddenly shrank.
