Hashirazuna remnants in Kougetsu Mitsuda's body underwent another evolution, proving that Kougetsu Mitsuda had reached a new height.
Basically, with a period of two months, the first "two months" gave him the ability of idol worship, while the second "two months" gave him the ability to summon the Black Shadow Corps from the shadows of the dead. Perhaps he would gain other abilities in the future.
The strength of these Black Shadow Corps depends on the strength of the corpses when they were alive. In other words, the stronger the person, the more formidable the Black Shadow Corps formed by their shadow. Moreover, these shadows can directly shuttle through the shadows. Overall, it's a very good ability.
Thinking like this, the effect of Hashirazuna remnants might not be inferior to Hashirazuna seeds. Although it cannot directly gain powerful combat strength, it can be cultivated slowly.
If the Hashirazuna remnants were taken out from Kougetsu Mitsuda's body and still retained these abilities, then Genichi would call it the "Ultimate Killer".
Kougetsu Mitsuda was a good test subject, and Genichi planned to continue observing him.
...
On the other hand, Himura Kenshin walked into a deep mountain and softly said, "Ajian, please take me back."
The next moment, a white cloud descended swiftly from the sky, with a humanoid face at the front end, precisely the "Joyful Companion" created by Maki Maki using the Soul-Soul Fruit.
She implanted her soul into the cloud, creating a "Sky Island" in the sky. This was why Kougetsu Mitsuda and the others searched for Kenshin for more than four months in Wano but couldn't find him. Kenshin wasn't on the land of Wano at all; no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find him.
After the white cloud descended, Kenshin sat on it, and the cloud quickly ascended, taking him to a patch of white clouds in the sky.
This cloud group wasn't too large, probably only a few hundred meters in diameter, so the scenery on the cloud could be seen at a glance.
There weren't just Kenshin and his master, Hiko Seijuro, on the cloud; on the contrary, there were many people!
They seemed to be hosting some sort of party, the scene peaceful and entirely different from the inferno-like world below.
"Kenshin!"
As soon as he arrived, Kenshin saw someone in the crowd calling out to him. Kenshin quickly ran over and said, "Uncle Roger, come and taste the bar in Wano."
Roger?
That's right, it was Roger!
Roger was guided to this white cloud by Genichi shortly after arriving in Wano, otherwise, with his strength, it was very likely that Kougetsu Mitsuda wouldn't have been able to develop.
Hiko Seijuro...
Even Genichi personally played him!
Of course, he certainly didn't use his original appearance but slightly reshaped himself with Atok's flesh magic. Now he was taller and more muscular than before, with sharp features, looking a bit more intimidating than his original self. However, he looked tired and somewhat lazy.
He was currently wearing a white cloak and sitting in front of Roger.
There was currently no one suitable to impersonate Hiko Seijuro with the character card in his hand.
So let him do it; anyway, Kenshin had all the skills he had, and he was even stronger!
For every character card, he could gain one percent of their abilities. Those hundred thousand and million character cards before were okay, piling them up only made him a decently strong fighter. However, with Atok's arrival, he suddenly became wealthy.
Although it was only one percent of Atok's strength, it made him much stronger, not to mention the abilities of various character cards. With the portable pyramid, he was even stronger than Roger now.
Roger stayed here because he sensed that this Hiko Seijuro was very strong, abnormally strong.
Firstly, he indeed wanted to make friends with strong people like Hiko Seijuro, and secondly, he wanted to explore the depths of these two people.
After coming to Wano, he "accidentally" discovered this "Sky Island" after a period of investigation in the outside world, so he stayed here. He only occasionally went down to continue his investigation.
So, there were no clues to find Roger during the time An was searching for him.
"I've said it a long time ago, with my abilities, I can quickly bring back the wine."
Seeing Kenshin's arrival, No Name couldn't help but say.
"Visitors are guests. There is no reason to let guests move." Hiko Seijuro said slowly. "Moreover, Kenshin, this time you came back, you must have encountered something, right?"
Indeed, they all smelled a bloody scent from Kenshin.
Kenshin placed the wine gourd in front and sat on the cloud. He nodded slowly and said, "What Uncle Roger said before, that we were wanted in Wano, was true. I just went to buy wine and encountered dozens of people who wanted to kill me."
"So, did you kill them all?" Hiko Seijuro glanced at him.
Kenshin's gaze shifted to the cloud without looking at Hiko, and he said slowly, "If I let them follow me, it would expose this place."
"Excuse." Hiko Seijuro said indifferently. "The reason you were wanted is because of your murderous intent. You wanted to kill Kougetsu Mitsuda but couldn't, which led to today's situation."
"I..." Kenshin wanted to say something, but Roger interrupted him. "Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things during such a happy drinking time, Brother Hiko."
"The more powerful a person is, the easier it is to be used, because what seems easy for us can affect the operation of a country." Hiko Seijuro shook his head and said. "I don't know if Roger has this feeling?"
"Me?" Roger was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily, "I never think about these things. I only do what I want to do! If it's something I want to do, even if others use me, I don't care."
Hiko Seijuro picked up the wine gourd, opened the stopper, poured a lot into Roger's bowl, and poured some for himself.
He drank it all in one gulp, the strong liquor down his throat. He said slowly, "Being able to do what you want at will is an enviable state."
Roger also picked up the bowl filled with wine and drank it in one gulp.
"If you really regret it after doing it, then change it in the direction you want afterward. That's my way of doing things."
"For example... Brother Hiko, have you ever thought about making this country below normal again?"
He noticed Kenshin's eyes brighten when he said this, while Hiko shook his head.
"Many things in this world should not be changed or pushed by one person's will. Let things develop naturally, which is in line with the will of heaven."
