Dragon Slayer of Pirate World
Chapter 142 Tea in Wano Country
"Lord Black Dragon is here in person, but the shelter is very crude. Please don't be offended, Lord Black Dragon."
Kozuki Oden, the head of the Kozuki family in Wano Country and the great lord of the Kuri region, slightly nodded to Leite to apologize.
During the previous trip to this place, Yixiao had briefly introduced some things, and Leiter also roughly understood the change of power in Wano:
The Kozuki family used to be the rulers of Wano, but more than ten years ago, some changes occurred in the country, resulting in the loss of power. As the head of the family, Kozuki Odenori had to retreat to his fiefdom.
Although the current ruler, General Kutan Orochi, did not kill them all, as a loser, Kozuki Oden has obviously always had a strong sense of crisis, otherwise he would not have built his fiefdom so tightly.
The political structure of this country is similar to China's Spring and Autumn Period or Japan's Warring States Period. The so-called national rulers actually do not have the ability to control the whole country. The princes from all over the country do not always obey the central government's orders. Tan Orochi obviously needs to balance the relationships between all parties and cannot focus all his energy on the Kozuki family.
In addition to this identity, Kozuki Oden was a crew member of Whitebeard 20 years ago, but was then poached by Roger. He has been on the ships of two great pirates, and is a legend in the pirate world.
The only regret is that he did not follow Roger to the end of Rafdru, and he did not know what the real secret treasure was.
However, Leiter did not come to hear this news. The reason why he came to Wano Country was only for two things.
First, the Guangyue family was the original producer of historical texts. Their family had been processing stones for generations, and they retained the interpretation methods of ancient texts. Naturally, contacting them was to satisfy Robin's strong thirst for knowledge.
Secondly, this is the hometown of Yixiao. Since he wants this uncle to follow him sincerely, Leiter will certainly not be stingy about doing some good deeds.
"It doesn't seem like a wealthy place."
Although it was just a casual glance, Robin, who has always been thoughtful, still exposed the current situation of this country without mercy:
"Most of the people on the street are old people, women and children, and they look sallow and thin."
Kozuki Oden knelt on the tatami in Kazuo's posture and lowered his head slightly:
"Ashamedly, a huge disaster broke out in Wano more than ten years ago, so that almost half of the young and middle-aged men were lost, so the labor force was greatly reduced, and even farming could only barely survive."
This was obviously an effect of the civil unrest.
But since he was too shy to mention it, Leiter didn't say anything. He just took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"Since you have heard my name, you must also know what I am doing now. Among the leaders of Wano Country, your family has a long heritage, and you have followed Whitebeard and Roger around the world, and your vision is far greater than Others are much more open-minded, and you must also understand that in today's general situation, closing the country is a dead end."
Kozuki Oden nodded vigorously:
"That's right. Although the daimyo from other regions also agree with me, the opposition is even stronger. Coupled with the general's opinions, Wano has never been able to really open the country."
Leiter smiled:
"If this is your wish, how about I help you?"
Kozuki Oden was shocked, with a look of disbelief on his face:
"Lord Black Dragon is willing to lend a helping hand"
Leiter picked up the teacup:
"It's just a little effort. I can help you eliminate that general, complete the unification of Wano, and solve the food problem of the entire population, but you have to give up the Kozuki family's dominance over this country for generations. This condition, Do you agree?"
The expression on Kozuki Oden's face suddenly became complicated.
The two confidants Kinemon and Kanjuro who were serving on the left and right rushed to persuade them in a low voice:
"The samurai of Wano would rather die than surrender."
"The country of Wano has been the country of the Kozuki family since ancient times. How can it be handed over to outsiders?"
"Even if all the men in Wano Country starve to death, we will never want a grain of grain from him."
"The ownership of Wano is our internal affairs, and outsiders will never be allowed to interfere."
While he was frowning and thinking hard, Robin, who had always had a sharp tongue, smiled sweetly:
"Master Oden, now that Master Black Dragon is here, do you think you have any other options?"
The defense in Kozuki Oden's heart suddenly collapsed.
He let out a long sigh, bent his upper body forward, clenched his fists to support himself on the ground, and bowed deeply to Leiter:
"Lord Black Dragon, I leave everything to you."
One day later, Robin still shook his head towards Leiter with some regret:
"He has told me everything he knows, but he has only mastered the interpretation method and some inherited history. He is no more clear than us about the 100 years of disappearance."
"oh, I see."
Leiter, who was playing chess with Nokigao, just responded, obviously not caring.
Robin had long been accustomed to his attitude. After all, the two of them had not been together for a short time. Leiter really had no interest in the so-called historical text, because he himself was rewriting and creating history.
"I'm going here."
Nokigao pressed down a chess piece, and then looked at Leiter expectantly:
"Brother Lei Te, I just learned a way to cook fish here. Do you want to try it later?"
Leiter smiled and scratched her nose:
"Of course, feel free to try new dishes, and I will eat them all."
Robin opened a book and lay lazily on the sofa, then gently poked Leit with his bare feet:
"I just heard many people here expressing their gratitude to the gods. Did you help them grow food?"
Leiter held her little foot with his backhand and played with the round ankle and the smooth and soft instep:
"As you can see, the people here don't even have enough to eat. It's just a piece of cake for me."
Robin struggled to free herself, but failed. She simply did not resist, and even stretched out her other white and soft foot:
"But have you not considered telling these people that it was your gift?"
Leiter smiled and shook his head:
"Winning the hearts of the people? It seems that I don't need to do this kind of thing anymore. Nokigao, you lose."
When his last chess piece fell, Noqigao abandoned it and surrendered, curling his lips with an aggrieved look on his face:
"I don't seem to have much talent in playing chess."
Leiter pinched her little face with the hand that was not touching her feet:
"Clean up, and then let me try the new dish you just learned, and let your sister Robin feel a little sense of crisis. She seems to be a little heavier recently."
When Nokigao got into the kitchen, Leiter called Kozuki Oden and Yixiao:
"We can go."
Kozuki Oden said hesitantly:
"It's lunch time soon, Master Black Dragon, why don't we go after eating?"
Leiter did not take such advice. He picked up the hot water kettle on the side, poured the steaming boiling water into the teapot, and then stood up:
"Let's go and let the tea steep for a while. By the time we come back, it will probably be ready to drink."
Kozuki Oden, the head of the Kozuki family in Wano Country and the great lord of the Kuri region, slightly nodded to Leite to apologize.
