Chapter 262 to Chapter : Flower City, a battle to level this place?
“It’s really nice to meet you today, A-He, but it’s getting late, and we have to find a place to rest.”

“I am also very happy to meet you, Mona. You can continue to come to my place for tea next time.”

“Yeah, definitely!”

Holding Barrett’s hand, Mona waved goodbye to Ahe with her other hand.

Ahe behind her placed one hand flat below her abdomen and half-raised the other hand, waving it gently in farewell. The kimono she was wearing made her look like an extremely virtuous lady.

After the two of them had gone far away, the Jinmen guard who had been sulking in a small room next to the teahouse slowly walked out, came to Ah He’s side, and said:

“Oh, I wish I hadn’t met them.”

“Hey, don’t be angry, Xiao Jin. Everyone has their own opinions. You are a retainer of Lord Oden. It is not wrong for you to hate villains like Kurozumi Orochi.”

Ah He threw himself into the arms of Jinmenwei and said softly, his tone was gentle, and his words were neither derogatory nor boastful:

“But outsiders are different. They will only look at this matter from another perspective. In their view, what happened to Kurozumi Orochi and what he did are actually two different things, so naturally they will have different opinions.”

“I… I actually know that, but Lord Oden has shown me and all of us an inestimable favor!”

The Jinmen guard shook his head. He was reasonable, but he would not deny his previous actions.

Ah He understood what kind of man her childhood sweetheart was, and said nothing more. She just relaxed, went into the tea room, made a pot of hot tea, and prepared a meal.

the other side.

The market streets are busiest in the early morning and evening, one before work starts, and the other after work starts, both times are peak times for people coming and going.

Walking on the street to find a hotel to stay in, Mona said as she walked:

“Barrett, what do you think?”

“Me? I’ll listen to you. It’s just a matter of time before I go back. It’s just a mission for me.”

“Hmm… then let’s go visit the one called Kurozumi Orochi first. I remember when my dad was still traveling on the sea, there was a pirate group called Rocks, right?”

As Mona spoke, she seemed to be recalling carefully the ancestors of the two Kurotan Snakes that the Jinmen guard had mentioned who suddenly appeared. She then remembered that there seemed to be two famous pirates in the past, both of whom had the surname Kurotan.

But it was of little use to say this at the time, because Wano Country was a closed country, and their attitude towards pirates was completely different from that of the outside kingdoms, because the pirates who could reach here were more or less quite capable.

Most capable pirates have their own set of principles, which are completely different from those minions who are simply doing evil, although they are still garbage.

The local people probably have a confused understanding of pirates.

“I don’t know. I’m illiterate.”

“Hehe, who would say that about themselves? Next time, don’t make such self-deprecating jokes in front of me!”

Mona was amused by Barrett’s words, then she pretended to be angry and warned him, saying:
“My Barrett is the best. Even if there are shortcomings, I can make up for them with my strong strength. No one is allowed to say that you are bad, especially you yourself. Do you understand?”

“Um……!”

Barrett hummed in a muffled voice, his heart already filled with the girl’s tenderness.

Then, Mona said as if she suddenly realized something:
“I remember! I think his name was Cicada or something. He was just so-so and definitely no match for you, Barrett.

They are all pirates with a history of massacres, so there is no need to be lenient. We should go to their door first to knock on their door, and then ask the big snake about his plan.”

“If he doesn’t need to harm civilians and only wants to attack the daimyo, then we can go visit the daimyo in various places, wait for them to fight, and wait and see for a while before making a decision. After all, it’s just a grudge between each other, so it’s better to be direct than to prolong it with innocent lives.

If his plan involves harming civilian children, we will just kill him! After finding the fruit, we will go to that ancient town to find the next one, and then I will take you for a walk and then Wufeng will take us home. “

After saying that, Mona blushed as if she had made some decision in her heart, and felt a little shy when looking at Barrett’s tall body.

Mora is a traditional aristocratic beauty, and so are the other two concubines. As Ross’s daughter, she understood early on what the next step of love was.

This is also a necessary procedure. If you wait until the day you get married to understand it, you might be cheated before you even get married, and it will be too late to regret then.

Such examples are common on the sea. Young ladies from noble families are ignorant of the ways of the world. Even though they look down on the peasants from the lower class, there are always two or three accidents.

Her mother Mora is a living example. She was deceived by her young father when she was very young. However, both of them were very happy with their lives afterwards, which was considered a good result.

Men, on the other hand, are very casual. Their second brother will wake up one day and tell them what to do.

Or, in other words, shout like this:

[Hey, Boss, it’s time for you to have a relationship. Hurry up and find a girl so that both of us can feel comfortable! ]

“Well, I listen to you.”

Barrett didn’t think there was anything strange about Mona’s strange blushing, as he himself said, he was illiterate.

He had no idea what Mona meant by going home, he just thought that she wanted to go back and rest after playing tired.

“Okay, let’s set off early tomorrow morning. I just asked Azuru where the Kurotan clan is. Although we don’t have an exact location, it’s right to go to the center of Wano Country, Flower Capital. It’s a good opportunity to meet the owner of this country.”

After Mona finished speaking, she let go of Barrett’s hand and floated up. The latter understood and stretched out his forearm to place it in front of his abdomen to let her sit steadily, and then said:
“You always have to greet the local owner. Otherwise, killing people rashly is wrong no matter how right it is, unless the entire country is rotten to the core.”

Hearing this, Barrett nodded in agreement.

He was able to resort to violence in the Kingdom of Goa before, firstly because persuasion was fruitless, and secondly because the nobles there were rotten to the core, but Jiuli did not do that.

At least he didn’t even see any ruffians, let alone homeless people and orphans.

This is also one of the few places that I felt was acceptable when I first arrived in Wano Country. After all, there are only a few kingdoms in the outside world that can maintain this appearance.

I just don’t know if this is only the case in Jiuli area.

If the Flower City was not like this, he and Mona would probably not waste any more words. They had already used up all their saliva in the Goa Kingdom. Now Barrett prefers to speak with strength.

So efficient and useful!
There was no conversation that night. The two first soaked in the local hot spring for a long time, then found a nice hotel to stay in, and waited quietly for the arrival of the next day.

…………The next day, as the sun rose to noon, Kurozumi Muchan, who was far away in the Flower Capital, also received information about Mona and Barrett.

Yesterday, two strangers in strange clothes appeared at Jiuli. One of them was tall and mighty, comparable to a samurai, and the other was as beautiful as a flower, like Kaguya in the world.

There is no need to guess, Heitan Muchan also knows the identity of the visitor. She has been following the news of the two for a long time.

“But why are they coming to the Flower City? This shouldn’t be the case!”

Looking at the direction in which the two people were setting off again according to the intelligence, Heitan Muchan thought for a while, but was puzzled.

According to the information she had, the two came to Wano Country most likely for sightseeing, just like when she and her brother went out to sea as pirates, and learning skills was just a byproduct.

After all, at that time, the Kurozumi clan had not yet been killed by Kurozumi Orochi’s grandfather.

Mona and Barrett’s travels have been reported in the World Economic News, but they only occupy marginal space.

That is, I was in the front row of the newspaper on a winter island in the paradise, because it was indeed a rare and spectacular sight, and the postures of the two were also very explosive. After all, it was a scene where a poor boy fell in love with a princess, and it was made so romantic. Those who understand will understand.

Young people on the sea love to spend money on this kind of news, so it would be a waste for Pele not to make money from it.

But why did the two of them head straight to the Flower Capital the next day? Aren’t the mountains and rivers of Wano Country much more beautiful than the fireworks of the human world? In other words, ordinary people would like the night shows here, and the geishas who walk at night may be popular with many men.

Most traditional women in Wano Country stay at home at night and do not go out at night, so most night markets do not have things that women would like, and they only appear during festivals.

“This is really weird. It can’t be that Kaido was found alive? Or that Kozuki Oden knows something and wants them to help him?”

Black Charcoal Muchan guessed and said to himself:
“That doesn’t make sense. Kaido hasn’t even stepped out of the yard yet, and Morgause, the birdman, can’t even find this place.

If Oden knew about this, he would come back directly without asking anyone else. Although he is a reckless man, one has to admit that he is a fool who can remember ants. “

“What’s wrong, Mu Chan? Is there any problem?”

Kaido walked over slowly with a wine gourd in his hand. He looked a little decadent. After arriving here, he found a place to lie down.

Heitan Muchan shook his head upon seeing this. These monsters are really something. They don’t even frown when they die. Their will to survive is as strong as a rock.

But when it comes to making a choice about beliefs, everyone is extremely confused. This was the case with the former Wang Zhi Yin Fu, and it is also the case with Kaido now.

And the golden lion, I don’t know if he regretted picking trouble before he died. I also don’t know if those two guys, Newgate and Lingling, will ever have such a day.

“Nothing, I just don’t understand why those two brats would come in the direction of Flower Capital. It doesn’t make sense, but I can’t think of a reason.”

“Really? Never mind. If you’re coming here, just call me!”

Suddenly, Kaido stood up, his dejected look gone, his eyes filled with eagerness to fight, the words “want to fight” almost written on his face.

He had to consider the face of Mu Chan and others and the gratitude for saving his life, but if the other party came to him first, he would fight even with this weak body!
He might really die, but he would not regret it.

If he can’t even beat a kid like Barrett, he might never have a chance for revenge in his life.

“Well, sure. If they really come looking for us, we’ll have to fight even if you don’t do anything.”

Heitan Muchan said with melancholy in his mouth, this was what he was most worried about.

Based on the information she has collected so far, Barrett is not someone she and her brother can fight to the death to defeat Kozuki Oden. The best outcome would be to let Orochi escape and avoid the limelight before taking revenge.

But if Kaido is added… it will be difficult, but it is not impossible to survive!

………

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

Jiuli is not too far from the Flower Capital, at least for Barrett, but the scenery along the way cannot be missed, and fun things cannot be delayed.

In this way, he and Mona slowly came to the capital of Wano Country, which made Kurozumi Kuroshin, who had been paying attention to their movements, completely nervous.

Far away in the tribe, she least wanted the two people’s arrival to be directed at them. That would indeed be the worst outcome at this time.

“Let’s go. After we finish this, let’s continue to walk around here. To be honest, Kozuki Oden’s retainers are indeed… pretty good.”

They had only been at Huazhi for a few minutes when Mona, seeing the little boy in front of them offering himself as their tour guide, lost all desire to make announcements and the mood to play.

It seems that their first stop in Wano Country was quite lucky, as it was a paradise where they could live and work in peace and contentment.

The prosperity of the Flower City is definitely superior to the town-like places like Jiuli, but because of this, its flaws are not concealed at all.

There are not only homeless children trying to make a living, but also beggars and arrogant men. With Mona’s eyesight, she can even see what is happening hundreds of meters away.

It was a scene of a man in noble attire stepping on a man’s head, surrounded by a few peasants, and surrounded by people who dared not to watch and could only take a quick look before leaving in a hurry.

“Sorry kid, we don’t need a tour guide. Here you go. Today is a rare good day. Let’s go get some good food.”

Mona smiled and rejected the boy’s self-recommendation. After some explanation, she took out two Baileys and put them in his hand.

Although this was only enough to buy a serving of tri-color dumplings, considering the boy’s tattered clothes, it was enough to buy a delicious meal.

Giving too much is not good, giving too little is not good, a good meal is just right.

The boy said a few words of thanks before leaving carefully and finally disappeared in the crowd. Without waiting for the next child to come and solicit customers, Mona took Barrett’s hand and left.

As she walked, she said:
“Barrett, how’s it going? Have you found the guy we’re looking for by following those tails?”

“I have found it, but…”

Barrett narrowed his eyes slightly. Since Kurozumi Muchan could grasp their movements, he could naturally be found by following the clues. After all, he was also a disciple of the top observation master, and there were two of them!
“Just what?”

“But this one might flatten the entire Flower City!”
