Chapter 285 Kozuki Run Away
Kanjuro concealed certain emotions deep within his heart, his face full of solemn apprehension as he said in a deep voice:
"Regardless of what happened in White Dance, or what the other party intends to do, I think… we should leave this Battlefield area as soon as possible. They might return at any time.
If we run into them then, whether they are friend or foe, we will be in trouble."
"Kanjuro is right."
Raizo barely maintained his composure, his voice trembling slightly, "Let's get out of here quickly, who knows if they will become bloodthirsty and attack us."
The scene of Asura Hell presented before their eyes was truly dazzling.
"Mm…"
Listening to Kanjuro and Raizo's words, Kin'emon nodded heavily.
Just as Kin'emon intended to listen to Kanjuro and Raizo, and seize the time to leave this place of right and wrong, Kiku stopped in her tracks.
At the same time, her gentle voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"You guys go first, I want to find out the identity and Status of that man."
"Huh?"
Everyone was suddenly startled, looking towards Kikunojo who was staring intently into the distance.
At this moment, Kin'emon couldn't help but feel a sense of unfamiliarity from Kikunojo, as if he had never truly understood this Companion in the past ten years.
"You guys go first."
While speaking, Kikunojo untied the Sword at his waist and threw it to Ashura Doji, who was closest to him.
Ashura Doji also directly grasped the Sword thrown from the Sky with his remaining Arm.
He didn't know about others, but he felt Resolve from Kikunojo.
Cat and Dog and Raizo and others were all unable to hide their shock.
They didn't understand why Kikunojo would suddenly make such a decision.
They, the Kozuki Retainers, considered White Dance to be on the Rebellion Side. Kikunojo's actions were undoubtedly sending a Sheep into a tiger's mouth.
"No! That's too dangerous!"
Kin'emon took two steps forward, raising his hand to press on Kikunojo's shoulder, intending to make him give up this idea.
Kikunojo's shoulder twitched, shaking off Kin'emon's hand.
Kin'emon and the others might not have noticed the changes in Wano Country now, but he, with his meticulous mind, had been watching the Intelligence that Denjiro had collected from all over Wano Country.
Udon and Kibi, occupied by Kaido and Orochi, were filled with Factories emitting Thick Smoke day and night. The polluted Rivers were undrinkable, and the Fields could not grow Crops due to environmental changes. Some remote Villages and Towns had already disappeared…
White Dance, however, was the opposite. Compared to Kuri and other Places in Wano Country, it could even be called Shangri-La.
In Kiku's view, perhaps the People of White Dance had long forgotten the Kozuki Clan, after all, their current Life had nothing to do with the Kozuki Clan.
"Kin'emon, only by contacting the other party can we know their true attitude towards us. If I can test the result with my insignificant Life, is there a more cost-effective deal than this?"
Kikunojo turned to look at Kin'emon, his Tone firm and unwavering.
Without giving everyone a chance to object, he prepared to walk towards White Dance.
"Kiku…"
Everyone looked at Kikunojo's firm steps, wanting to say something but stopping.
Although they had never dealt with the person behind White Dance, they always felt that White Dance was extremely dangerous.
The subconscious perception made Kin'emon give up the Thought of seeking help from White Dance.
They were not actually afraid of death.
But even if they were to die, they would have to die in the Battle against the Enemies of Wano Country.
And they had to help Momonosuke become the Shogun of Wano Country again!
"Hahaha, this kind of Thing should be left to me, after all, Kiku, you are an important part of seeking help overseas!"
Just at this moment, a bold voice rang out from the crowd, and then they saw Kanjuro laughing loudly as he stepped forward and pressed his hand on Kiku's shoulder.
"Kanjuro."
Looking at Kanjuro who stopped him, Kiku's Face was full of confusion.
"Wuu ya ya ya ya, how can this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show off be given to young People? Let me go. After all, I have lived much longer than you."
Kanjuro said with a smile.
Looking at Kikunojo who still wanted to say something, Kanjuro continued.
"Don't forget, you still have to find Lord Oden's Friends on the Grand Line. Without their help, it will be difficult for us to deal with Kaido, and maybe we will never have any hope of Revenge in this Life."
After speaking, Kanjuro flicked his hair dashingly and walked in the direction Kikunojo had been facing.
After parting ways with Kanjuro, Kin'emon and the others arrived at his Friend's home.
However, his Friend had long since disappeared, leaving only a Desolate Village.
Kin'emon, Toki, and Kikunojo, Ashura Doji stood side by side on the Shore.
The Gale rolled up the Seawater, crashing against the Reef, shattering into Water Mist, and falling on everyone's Body.
The few People silently gazed at the turbulent Waves of the Grand Line ahead.
"Toki, let's find a Shelter from Rain first."
Seeing that the Rain Intensity was getting heavier and heavier, Kikunojo couldn't help but Suggest.
"Can you do me a favor? Everyone?"
Toki did not answer Kikunojo's Words, but looked at everyone and said.
Kin'emon was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
Ashura Doji quietly sized up Toki, wanting to know what she suddenly intended to say.
"Madam, these Words are too much for us."
Kin'emon said quickly. In his opinion, it would be good for Toki to have any orders, after all, they were Kozuki Retainers, and Toki was their Madam.
"Toki, what help do you want us to provide?"
Kikunojo looked at Amatsuki Toki calmly.
"I…"
Toki's expression was solemn, and she was about to speak, but suddenly stopped.
Because she saw Kikunojo, Kin'emon, Ashura Doji's Bodies that were missing an Arm.
Seeming to have noticed Toki's Gaze, Kin'emon and the others did not mind. They knelt on one knee and solemnly said with their remaining left Arms clenched into fists placed on their Chests, "Madam, please give your orders, even if it is to climb mountains of Swords or plunge into a Sea of Fire, we will die a hundred times without regret!"
Feeling the Determination from Kin'emon and the others, Amatsuki Toki said with a serious Face.
"I want to drive Kaido out of Wano Country, but I am very clear that with my Strength and everyone's Strength, we are definitely no match for Kaido, so… I want to send Momonosuke to the Future!"
When Kin'emon and his party heard that Toki intended to send Momonosuke to the Future, they were immediately dumbfounded. They had some difficulty understanding how to send a person to the Future.
Kin'emon frowned slightly. Indeed, even when they were in good health, they were not Kaido's Opponent, let alone their current crippled bodies. How could they have the Ability to fight Kaido to avenge Kozuki Oden? But going to the Future was even more unbelievable.
"I am actually an Ability User of the Paramecia-type Time Fruit. Everyone, although we cannot defeat Kaido at this moment, according to the Answer I got with Kozuki Oden, someone will come to Wano Country in the Future to defeat Kaido and bring Dawn to Wano Country."
While Amatsuki Toki was planning to run away with Momonosuke, Kanjuro, who had replaced Kikunojo, was thinking about how to deceive them.
After all, in the previous Battle in Flower Capital.
He had personally witnessed Nicholas's terrifying Combat Power.
He had also personally witnessed the shocking Power of Nicholas's every move.
That was an undeniable powerful Power that could contend with Kaido and even defeat Kaido.
Therefore—
For this kind of Weapon, he must be fully alert.
It could be said that this was the Time to test his Acting Skills!
