Chapter 426: Planting the Tree of God

"Kawamatsu, are you serious? is Kaido really dead?"

Hiyori looked dumbfounded at Kawamatsu, who appeared right in front of her, and exclaimed loudly.

Kawamatsu said slowly, looking cautiously at Yeruashi and Robin in front of him, "It's true, I've checked the rumors several times. Everyone says that Kaido was killed by a young man with silver hair, who was traveling with a girl, about the age of twelve..."

The more Kawamatsu spoke, the lower his voice became, and his eyes, fixed on Yeruashi and Robin, gradually widened.

Kawamatsu's eyes, full of surprise and incomprehension, moved spasmodically between Robin and Yeruashi.

Silver-haired, young, twelve-year-old girl? Don't the signs match the two people in front of them!

"Kawamatsu?"

Hiyori looked at Kawamatsu with concern, intending to explain the situation to Robin and Yeruashi as his words echoed in her head.

But gradually Hiyori's eyes widened, and then she slowly raised her head, looking at Yeruashi and Robin in front of them in a stunned and disbelieving manner.

Really...

They had killed Kaido?

Absolute silence reigned.

Hiyori's face wore an expression of shock and disbelief, and Kawamatsu's face was filled with horror and extreme tension.

After a few seconds of silence, Kawamatsu barely recovered and put the sword away, respectfully addressing Yeruashi, "Sorry! Sorry for the rudeness!!!"

No matter the reason why Yeruashi killed Kaido, it still doesn't deny the fact that he is the benefactor of the Kozuki Family!

Yeruashi killed Kaido, who had killed Oden in the past.

This was the fulfillment of the Kozuki Family's revenge.

For the samurai of Wano Country, this is the greatest grace!

"No problem."

Yeruashi smiled.

So cute!

Robin's bright eyes, standing next to Yeruashi, were fixed on Kawamatsu.

Unlike Yeruashi, Robin's reaction to the 'angry talking bird' was completely opposite.

Kawamatsu hit exactly the weak point of Robin's 'sense of beauty'.

"The Kaido Beast was the Kozuki Family's worst enemy, so by killing it, they became our benefactors."

After confirming Yeruashi's identity, Kawamatsu fell to the ground without hesitation, bowed his head and said respectfully.

His voice trembled and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Kawamatsu..."

Hiyori was very stunned at first, then she gradually came to her senses and also knelt in front of Yeruashi with her eyes full of joy.

But the moment Hiyori started to kneel down, a hand fell on her shoulder.

"Don't get me wrong."

Yeruashi smiled, not allowing Hiyori to kneel, "I didn't do this for the sake of the Kozuki Family, but because of personal differences with Kaido."

Hiyori was stunned.

Kawamatsu froze and slowly raised his head, looking at Yeruashi with teary eyes.

Yeruashi removed his hand from Hiyori's shoulder, "But everything that follows can be considered my gratitude...I will help you take back what rightfully belongs to the Kozuki Family and help you regain control of Wano Country."

Hiyori froze in place, stunned, when she heard Yeruashi's words, then knelt down in front of him and said in a trembling voice, "Thank you!"

"It's impossible to fully express gratitude for your kindness! Thank you so much!!!"

Although Kaido is dead, even in this case, it won't be so easy to defeat Kurozumi Orochi.

It is not so easy to overthrow a man who has ruled the country for many years.

Not to mention that Momonosuke and the others were sent twenty years in the future.

Now the nine red pods won't be able to reunite in full force.

But with Yeruashi's support, the situation will change completely!

With the support of the person who killed Kaido, Orochi was already far from being so terrifying.

That meant...

That very soon the revenge of the Kozuki family will finally be carried out!

...

A few days later.

In a bamboo house in the mountains near the flower capital.

Hiyori, originally dressed in worn and tattered clothes, was now wearing a new kimono, and her cheeks and hair were clean.

Hiyori's pair of large, beautiful eyes shone brightly.

Kawamatsu entered the bamboo house and bowed respectfully to Hiyori, "Princess, the supporters of our family who answered the call are already fully assembled...you may go with them."

Another reason why the samurai of the Wano Country did not immediately start a rebellion against Orochi was the lack of a legitimate heir.

The rebellion against Shogun Orochi must begin in the name of the Kozuki Family.

There was no news of Momonosuke at this time, so Hiyori was the only legitimate heir.

Now only she could represent the will of the Kozuki Family.

"Well..."

Hiyori nodded, but instead of looking at Kawamatsu, she turned her head in another direction, "Mr. Yeruashi?"

Yeruashi smiled and nodded softly, "Go."

This Hiyori looked much cuter and cuter than the Komurasaki courtesan from the original.

"Then I will go, sir."

Hiyori bowed respectfully, looking at Yeruashi with her big, bright eyes, and then walked toward Kawamatsu.

Yeruashi looked away from Hiyori, who had followed Kawamatsu, and shook his head.

At that moment, Yeruashi thought about... did he really become a Lolicon?

But the answer was still in the negative.

It just so happened that at that moment Hancock and the others were too small.

Of course...

He couldn't deny that little Robin, Hancock and Hiyori were cute.

Outside.

At least ten thousand followers of the Kozuki Family gathered around the bamboo house.

The situation was very different from the original one, when years later, many Kozuki Family followers were exhausted by a hard life or simply killed by Orochi's people.

Therefore, at least ten thousand warriors immediately came to the call of the heiress of the Kozuki Family!

"Princess!"

"Finally.... we meet again..."

Upon seeing Hiyori leave, the numerous samurai gathered around the bamboo house began to cheer and cheer.

Some of them even shed tears from their eyes, "Princess, how glad we are that you are well..."

"Speak up, Princess!"

"Come on... Let's get revenge on that bastard Orochi!"

Kawamatsu, Ashura Doji and the others of the nine red pods stepped forward, kneeling in front of Hiyori.

Hiyori looked nervously at the samurai kneeling in front of her.

Eight-year-old Hiyori opened her mouth several times, but said nothing, she was very nervous in such a situation.

There was silence.

Kawamatsu and the others remained kneeling.

Hiyori clenched her fists tightly, feeling her palms sweat profusely.

At that moment, she involuntarily turned toward the bamboo house and saw Yeruashi standing in the doorway with a gentle smile.

Seeing this smile, Hiyori's tension immediately weakened greatly, replaced by courage and determination.

Hiyori turned to the samurai.

Her eyes shone brightly.

"Warriors of the Kozuki Family!"

"In the name of the Kozuki Family, I command.... Start a rebellion against Kurozumi Orochi!!!"

Hiyori's voice was not very loud, but since everyone was silent, it was clearly audible to all present.

All the assembled samurai and shinobi of the Kozuki Family, including Ashura Doji and Kawamatsu, raised their heads.

In the next moment...

"Yes!!!"

The heavens were shaken by the loud shout of thousands of warriors, filled with incomparable fighting spirit and bloodlust!

Yeruashi nodded with satisfaction and returned to the bamboo house.

At this moment, Yeruashi's right hand was stroking his chin, and his left hand was holding a small branch, waving it gently in front of his eyes.

How about... planting a divine tree in Wano Country?

The current Yeruashi, of course, has the ability to plant a divine tree.

To plant, you just need to separate the seed of the divine tree.

A new divine tree will emerge from the seed and bear the fruit of the chakra, after eating, the Yeruashi's power should increase in another step.

The only problem was that the divine tree could not immediately produce the chakra fruit.

This will take a long time.

But.

Considering that the world of One Piece is much larger than the world of Naruto, it can be assumed that after planting, the divine tree will develop much faster.

Initially, Yeruashi was going to plant a divine tree on the last island of Laugh Tale, but after some thought, he decided that planting the divine tree in Wano Country seemed more appropriate.

After all, there are shinobi here.
