chapter 4 - The meeting commences

Flower capital, wano

In the highest building, in the highest room, sat a council of men, every one of them possessing a staggering height and an aura that will make even the strongest marine a falter.

These were the mighty men of wano, every daimyo, and hygoro representing the common folk, as the yakuza.

" WE SHOULD OPEN THE BORDERS! AT LEAST JUST FOR ME! I CAN'T STAY HERE ANYMORE!" a shout was heard to the commoners who were going about their daily life, they sighed at the eccentric heir of the shogun and moved on with their life.

" That is a NO! we aren't ready for what lies beyond the borders! "

" what if we become stronger and become ready?" asked oden

" oden..., enough, there is a body called the world organization outside the border.." isshin started talking while puffing his smoke,

" The moment we open our borders, the world government will send their marines and perform a buster call, which would result in great damage, isn't it better to wait and follow what has been written in the prophecy?"

" WHO KNOWS THE CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING IN MY LIFETIME! IT'S NOT COOL "

" be quiet oden we have more serious topics to discuss "

" old man! this is serious "

However, oden was ignored and some even smiled in his direction.

" isshin sama, any news about the world?"

"There is a person who wants to be the king of the world, he's been amassing his crew and it's very frightening "

"Why are they frightening isshin sama?"

"they are filled with conquerors and they have great strength...I advise us to grow stronger than before...what if the man decides to invade the rich lands of wano? I can't say what will happen in the future so we should grow stronger so that wano can survive and thrive to its full glory in the change of history "

" My home is open to all of you, if you want to grow stronger and gain tips then I will be at my residence....the stronger the better..but everyone should keep a closer eye on all of your subordinates, maybe the government has sent spies or something"

" yes isshin sama"

" How is the food being received in Ringo-"

like this, the meeting went on and the problems were discussed and solved.

All the daimyos after the meeting went to the residence of isshin sama for pointers.

They came out beaten and bruised but sprung a huge smile on their face because they knew they had something to grow stronger.

" Such a shame this only happens once a year, it's very lively when they are here..."

" I agree, if Nori was still alive..be would be ushimarus age..."

saying this he gazed into the white moon, illuminating the land of gold and sighed

chiyo came and hugged him hard as they slept looking at the moon.
