Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

When they arrived at Wano Country, they found that something was not right.

The current general of Wano Country is not Kurozumi Orochi, but a man named "Kozuki Oden".

Upon hearing the news, Kin'emon, Raizo and others were stunned. If they had not learned from Luffy and others that 22 years have passed since the execution of Pirate King Roger, and the Whitebeard Pirates were disbanded two years ago, they would have wondered if they had traveled through the wrong time period.

So the group split up into several groups, and Raizo, Inuarashi and others went to various places in Wano Country to look for the remaining Nine Red Scabbards.

Luffy and others followed Kin'emon and Momonosuke to the Flower Capital to check out what was going on.

Along the way, they discovered that the entire country of Wano was plagued by banditry and the people were living in an extremely miserable state.

They were all naked, hungry, and had dull eyes.

Everything is afraid of comparison. Compared with Dressrosa under Doflamingo's rule, Wano Country is like heaven and hell.

Upon seeing this, Kin'emon immediately revealed Momonosuke's identity to the common people, but the result was not as he had imagined. The common people bowed down and cried bitterly as if they had seen a savior.

When these people heard the identity of the Kozuki clan, not only did they not show any excitement, but they all avoided them as if they were snakes and scorpions, with an extreme disgust revealed in their eyes.

This made Kin'emon completely confused about the situation.

Amidst everyone's doubts and confusion, they finally arrived at the capital of Wano Country, Flower Capital.

Walking on the desolate street, they saw a pyramid made of thousands of human skulls in the center.

There is a huge plaque in front, which reads: Kozuki Family, former Shogun of Wano Country, written by Kozuki Sukiyaki.

The members of the Straw Hat Pirates all frowned when they saw the plaque, and Luffy asked directly:

"Momoko, who is this Kotsuki Sukiyaki in your family?"

Momonosuke had already been frightened by the sight of the Jingguan in front of him. He cried and whispered:

"It's...it's...my grandfather!"

Now they understood why the common people's faces changed drastically and even showed disgust when they heard that Momonosuke was a member of the Kozuki family.

At this time, a crazy old man in tattered clothes and covered in dirt appeared on the street. He held a broken knife and swung it randomly in the air, sometimes laughing and sometimes muttering: Kill, kill, kill.

When the crazy old man got tired, he just lay on the ground and rested without any image.

At this time, a girl in a colorful kimono appeared. She placed a bowl of water and a rice ball in front of the old man, then stood up and left silently.

Just as she was passing by Luffy and his group, she was suddenly stunned and covered her mouth with her hands trembling.

"Brother? Kin'emon!"

......

It turned out that the girl was none other than Kozuki Hiyori. She brought Momonosuke and others back to her residence and told them everything that had happened over the years.

After the death of his father Kozuki Oden, Kurozumi Orochi became the general of Wano Country. Although the people lived a hard life at that time, at least there was order to restrain everyone.

A few years ago, Kurozumi Orochi and his men were killed by a man named Tenshu, and Kaido was also defeated by him. Then there was that Kyokan, and the crazy old man on the street was her grandfather, Kozuki Sukiyaki.

Since then, Kaido has never managed Wano Country again, as if he suddenly lost interest in Wano Country.

He only let his subordinate Plague Queen be in charge of the factory that mines seastone, while the position of general of Wano Country was given to his daughter Yamato.

But I don't know why his daughter insisted on calling herself Kozuki Oden. However, after her governance, Wano Country has become more and more chaotic.

Maybe she finally realized that she was not cut out to be a general, so she disappeared two years ago. Perhaps she went to find Kaido.

At this point, Wano Country fell into a state of no one managing it. Anyone could claim to be the general of Wano Country, but either no one would recognize him or he would be killed by someone else who wanted to be the general.

Over time, the entire country fell into complete chaos and became what it is now.

......

After hearing this, Kin'emon's face was overjoyed, and he said excitedly:

"As long as we gain everyone's approval and eliminate those villains who are trying to get their hands on the general's throne, Master Momonosuke will be able to become the general of Wano Country again and restore the glory of the Kozuki family!"

When Kozuki Hiyori heard Kin'emon's words, she laughed at herself, then poured a bucket of cold water on him with a bleak face.

"No, the Kozuki family's reputation has been completely ruined after what happened to my grandfather and Kaido's daughter using her father's name.

Anyone in Wano Country can be a general, except our Kozuki family. Kaido won't allow it.

You see the tall tower made of human heads in the middle of the street? If it weren't for Kaido's order, it would have been demolished long ago.

After all, no one wants to see such a horrible thing when they open the door in the morning, but whoever touches it will die. Over the years, the number of heads on the Jingguan has piled up higher and higher.

Even his grandfather would have been killed by those who hated the Kozuki family without Kaido's order. He certainly didn't want to protect his grandfather out of kindness.

Because only if my grandfather is still alive can people remember the sins committed by the Kozuki family. "

......

After hearing the whole story, the Straw Hat Pirates all fell silent. This incident undoubtedly had a huge impact on these naive young people on the spiritual level.

Their immature world view and values ​​make them want to help the people of this country, but they don’t know how to do it.

Because of the comparison with Doflamingo, they felt that Kaido must be wrong, but Momonosuke's grandfather was even more wrong.

The most important point is that the person who killed Kurozumi Orochi, defeated Kaido, and made the Kozuki family infamous is Tianshu.

It is Luffy’s uncle, the current Chief of the Navy, Mo Xingchen.

Especially when I think of him in Marinford, he was like a demon descending and directly annihilated a group of quasi-pirate kings.

Not only did he make the captain lose all face in front of the world, but he also crushed the opponent's spirit bit by bit, making his life worse than death.

Especially in the few days after watching the live broadcast, they would dream at night that the devil-like man came to capture them.

Luffy, who had been silent the whole time, heard the voice in his mind again.

"Isn't this a great country? Everyone can be free and do whatever they want!"
