"Reward"

All of the Mugiwara crew members were not expecting this kind of event.

Katahara: Until we meet again...if you decide to join us, Nami knows how to contact Laxus...Have a good journey, children.

Leaving the place...to head to the castle dungeon of the Land of Flowers, along with Ryuma and Augur.

In front of the only cell were The Eight Red Scabbards.

Denjiro is now a large man, with a long ponytail at the back of his head just like in his youth. His outfit consists of a khaki kimono with leaf patterns and a small patch with a ribbon at the waist.

Ashura Doji is a large man (as big as Inuarashi) with pink curly hair tied in a bun and quite obese. He wore a purple kimono with a floral print on it that leaves his chest exposed. He also had floral tattoos on his arms and upper chest.

Kawamatsu is a big fishman who pretends to be a kappa, which he is proud of. He is quite large and wide (as much as Raizo) with lime green skin. His head is large and has puckered lips, round and big eyes and a fairly smooth face. He has long dark orange hair that reaches almost to his ankles, as well as webbed hands. He wears a dark green kimono with a scarf and reddish sandals and a somewhat worn kasa that matches his size.

Kikunojo, although born as a man, lives and feels like a woman, so both her appearance and her mannerisms are traditionally feminine. She has long, very dark blue hair and wears sandals and a yellow kimono with floral patterns of orange chrysanthemums, as well as several ribbons of pink shades.

Kin'emon, as well as Raizo, the minks Inuarashi and Nekomamushi.

They all guarded the cell of a single man...Kurozumi Orochi, who was chained, with each limb of his body handcuffed, and also showed signs of torture all over his body, to the point where he had no nails on his fingers or tongue in his mouth.

Katahara: I see you had some fun with Orochi...

The members of the Red Scabbards remained silent, but the satisfaction on their faces at seeing the former shogun in that state was evident.

Katahara approached the cell and observed Orochi with contempt.

Katahara: You don't deserve death, Orochi. From now on, you will live with the shame of having lost everything you built with your lies and betrayals.

Orochi tried to speak, but only unintelligible sounds came out of his mouth.

Katahara: Let no one release him from here, he will be a reminder of what should never happen again in this country... you will live until Momonosuke ends your life.

The members of the Red Scabbards nodded in agreement.

At that moment, they all knelt before Katahara, taking him by surprise.

Denjiro: We have no words to express everything you have done in the last few days... you managed to liberate Wano from tyranny.

Kikunojo: You also became Momonosuke's teacher... and protected him in his time of greatest need... we have no way to thank you...

Ashura: Even by handing Orochi over to the Red Scabbards, so that we could decide his punishment...

Kin'emon: On behalf of all the samurai of Wano, we deeply thank you for everything you have done for our land. Thanks to you, the legend of the Kozuki clan has been revived.

Katahara: There is no need to thank me, I did what I had to do. I'm glad I could help in the liberation of this country and protect Momonosuke. But all this would not have been possible without the help and strength of all of you. Together we achieved something incredible, something that will go down in Wano's history.

Denjiro: Yes, we will always be grateful. And we will always be here to support you, whatever you need.

At that moment, Ryuma arrived with a woman.

Ryuma: I brought her as ordered, sir... Kozuki Hiyori.

Hiyori is a tall, slender woman with waist-length aqua green hair and downward-slanting violet eyes. She wears pink lipstick on her prominent lips.

Like Komurasaki, she wears geta to appear taller, with white skin and long, bluish-green hair, though it is tied up with several magenta ornaments and flowers. She wears a long reddish-orange and orange kimono with light blue sleeves and several flower and peacock drawings.

Surprising all present.

Katahara: Kozuki Hiyori... I'll leave you to talk for a while.

As he turned around.

Katahara: When you're done with your errands, you have to reunite with your brother...

Kozuki Hiyori only looked at Orochi with bloodshot eyes.

Katahara: Let's go, it's not our concern what happens here... just remember, you can't kill him more than 7 times for his fruit, just remember that...

Ryuma: Where are we headed, my lord?

Katahara: To give my commanders the rewards they have earned.

Several hours passed, and Katahara found himself in a room where 10 people were sitting, looking at their captain.

Katahara: Before the war began, our men obtained some Akuma No Mi, some fairly and others less so... in this book are the 53 fruits I obtained during all these years, there are some Logia fruits, several Paramecia fruits, and even some Mythical Zoan fruits among them. You can choose the one you like.

Everyone was in shock at such a revelation.

Robin: 53 Akuma No Mi, if the government knew about this, they would start a war to get them...

Dabi: Sir, some of us cannot consume another fruit, if that were the case then we would die on the spot.

Katahara: Dabi, Robin, Drust, you can ask for something else, of course.

At that moment Ryuma spoke.

Ryuma: My lord, I do not desire an Akuma No Mi... it would only distract me from the path of the sword.

Laffitte: In the same way, I do not want an Akuma No Mi... my shadow magic is more than enough.

Laxus: I am content with further developing my lightning magic and my Dragon Slayer magic... my lord.

Katahara: As you wish... As for the others...

Shiryu: Sir, I desire the Suke Suke no Mi... it will help me even more with my fighting style.

Van Augur: The Wapu Wapu no Mi is my choice, my lord.

Katahara: What about you, Agrom, Aslaug...

Agrom: I do not wish to depend on an Akuma No Mi... developing my own strength is for me.

Aslaug: One's own strength is always the best, my lord.

Katahara: That's what I thought. But I still wanted to give you the most valuable thing I had... although for you, Ryuma, I have another gift... as for the others, they can think of another type of reward to ask for.

(In future chapters, the different rewards requested by the other commanders will be revealed.)

"System, buy the book, Style of the Divine Sword, from Mushoku Tensei," Katahara thought.

At that moment, a book appeared in Katahara's hand.

Katahara: This is for you, Ryuma... a gift.

Ryuma was taken by surprise as he grabbed the book.

Ryuma: I will strive to understand all of its contents, my lord. I will not disappoint you.

As two very strange-looking Akuma No Mi appeared on the table.

Katahara: This is the Wapu Wapu no Mi for you, Augur... and this is the Suke Suke no Mi...

Thank you, my lord.

In unison.

Katahara: Augur... I need you to go to Van Trekor and bring your uncle here. Something tells me they will attack all of our allies... and he is more important than he seems... Laffitte, I want all the information about what's happening in Mary Geoise, as well as all their future movements... that's all.

After saying that, everyone left the room... for their own destinations.

Katahara was currently alone in the meeting room.

Katahara: A personal reward for eliminating Kaido and annexing Wano... I deserve it... System... show me the store.

[Warning to the user, the integration of a new bloodline is a cellular-level change in the body... it is extremely painful for the user.]

Katahara: Go ahead with the purchase.

At that moment, Katahara felt as if his entire body was being crushed from within, feeling as if his eyes were being removed.

Katahara screamed in pain as his body underwent the painful integration of the Senju bloodline.

His skin stretched and wrinkled, and his bones creaked and reformed as the new bloodline fused with his body.

After several minutes of intense pain, the process finally ended. Katahara collapsed to the ground, gasping and sweating profusely.

Katahara: [gasping] I... did it.

Katahara felt an overwhelming sense of power.

His body was now imbued with the strength and vitality of the Senju bloodline.

He stood up with a smile on his face, knowing he had made the right decision in taking this step.

Katahara: Now, I am ready for whatever comes next.

With his new bloodline, Katahara felt stronger than ever before and was eager to show his power.
