Probably not going to die, right? Chapter 154: Fantasy Oden The ship of the Spade Pirates. Ace was sent to the emergency room. The rest of the members stayed in the corner of the deck, looking at the two evil spirits standing at the bow, trembling with fear and not daring to even breathe. The navy black-haired guy was scary enough for them, and now there was another monster who could nearly beat the captain to death with a single blow. Damn it! Ever since I came to the new world, I’ve either been getting beaten or on the way to being beaten. Is there any way to survive? Yamato changed into ordinary clothes and put on a hood. She couldn't let anyone discover her whereabouts before leaving Wano Country. In addition to freedom, she has a dream. "Loya, I want to be Oden!"
"Oden." Roya gave Yamato a deep look. It's time to come. This girl is a few years older than him, but her poor living environment has prevented her mind from growing normally, and she is not much better than a child. Star-chasing kids are the most difficult to deal with. Roya said calmly: "Kozuki Oden, I have heard about him." "Loya, do you like Oden too?" Yamato looked surprised. That expression is exactly the same as that of a kid chasing stars. Loya shook his head. "No, I hate him." "what?!" Yamato was stunned, with an arrow hitting his heart. How can I be happy when the person I admire is denied? Roya asked: "Yamato, you said you wanted to be Oden, so I want to ask you, what is it about Oden that you like?" "I want to go on adventures freely like Oden!" Yamato answered without hesitation. She took out a tattered diary from her arms and held it in her hands like a treasure. The word "Oden" was faintly visible on the surface of the diary. Oden's thrilling adventures made her heart surge.
“That’s not a reason.” Roya shook his head in denial: "If you just want to have a free adventure, you can do it without becoming Oden. Oden has his own adventures, and you have yours." "." Yamato blinked. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed true. Ah, no, no! Yamato shook his head and puffed out his cheeks: "Oden is a true samurai. Fifteen years ago, a major event happened in the Flower Capital that shocked Wano Country!" The punishment of boiling in a cauldron lasts for one hour. Yamato's eyes sparkled as she recounted the scene she saw at the time: "Kozuki Oden was the most outstanding samurai. I will never forget the way he bravely prepared to die that day." "I see." Loya nodded slowly. To be honest, he couldn't quite understand Yamato's logic. If Oden had no power to resist, he would definitely respect Oden as a man. But according to Yamato's description, Oden and his nine retainers not only had the strength to break free from their chains, but also had the stamina to last in the frying pan for an hour. Oden could have done anything, whether it was to fight Kaido again or to escape from the execution ground and regroup, but he chose to surrender and pin his hopes on twenty years later. Isn't this a complete coward? But looking at Yamato's fangirl look, it doesn't make sense to say that it's probably true. "We've reached the shore." Loya pointed forward. The Jiuli coastline came into view. "Come on, I'll take you to learn about the current Wano Country." Soon, everyone returned to Bianli Village. Seeing their rescued family members, the people of Bianli Village cried with joy; they had not held out any hope at all. The Spade Pirates stayed in Haikasa Village to rest. Roya took Yamato on a tour of the village, then quietly left and headed for other villages and towns. Jiuli, Tuwan, Baiwu. After walking for a whole day, the two crossed three rural areas and arrived at the God of Wealth Town in Baiwu, where they stayed overnight at Lao Kang's house. Night falls.
After a simple meal, the Kang family squeezed into the living room to rest, leaving the only bedroom for the two of them. Under the dim night light, the two of them lay on the tatami. Loya rested his head on his hands. “How do you feel today?” "very bad!" Yamato replied glumly, his back turned to Roya. When she left Onigashima, her heart was full of anticipation for the upcoming adventure, but her fantasy was quickly shattered by reality. Poverty and hunger are everywhere. There are also countless ronin bad guys! "It's different than I remember!" Yamato sat up cross-legged angrily, wearing only underwear and a thin top, her figure was vaguely visible, but she didn't care about being exposed at all. She can't sleep now! Before she was eight years old, her father did not restrict her freedom. At that time, she often followed the boat to various towns to play. In her distant memory, although the people of Wano Country were not rich, at least they had no problem having enough food. But now it's completely different. Roya also sat up and faced Yamato. "Yamato, why do you think Wano Country has become like this?" "Of course it's because of my father!" Yamato answered confidently. It's all father's fault! "And that damned General Snake!" "Well, your father Kaido and Shogun Orochi are indeed the main reasons why Wano Country has become what it is now." Luo Ya nodded in agreement and changed the subject. "However, Oden is also involved." "What does this have to do with Oden!" Yamato puffed up his cheeks angrily. She discovered that Roya had a lot of complaints about Oden. Instead of explaining directly, Roya asked, "Yamato, why did you stop Ace when he destroyed Onigashima?"
"Of course I have to stop it, that's my home." Yamato tilted his head in confusion, not understanding why Loya asked that. She has no feelings for the Beasts Pirates, and even hates her father and his subordinates, but Onigashima is her home after all, and it's where she grew up. "Yes, Onigashima is your home." Loya smiled slightly: "You think it is your responsibility to protect Ghost Island, right?" "Correct!" Isn't this a matter of course? "Similarly, Wano Country is Oden's home. Oden has the responsibility to protect Wano Country. Moreover, Oden is the son of the previous generation of shogun, so he has a greater responsibility. The people of Wano Country also have high hopes for Oden." Roya said calmly: "Oden failed to protect his home. Doesn't he have any responsibility?" "This" Yamato couldn't wrap his mind around it. Loya shook his head slightly. Many countries in the world are basically facing the same problems as Wano Country. Even the allied countries are also exploited by Tenjojin. They are all exploited. How different can Kaido be from the Celestial Dragons? If you want to avoid being exploited by invaders, you can only rely on yourself. Although Roya didn't quite agree that Oden didn't seek help from his crew, he could understand it. He couldn't ask for help every time he encountered trouble. Just like those non-member countries that the 11th Fleet had helped before, they could help for a while, but not forever. But Oden's subsequent dancing behavior It's beyond description. Loya sighed. "Yamato, I know you admire Oden, but I hope you know that admiration is the farthest distance from understanding." "You only met Oden once and read his diary, so you built a perfect Oden in your mind. However, in reality, you and Oden have never spoken a single word." "You don't know what Oden likes, you don't know what Oden likes to eat, you don't know what Oden is worried about, you know very little about Oden." "The Oden you want to be is essentially the perfect image in your imagination, the person you aspire to be. That person can be Oden or someone else." Roya asked softly: "Yamato, before you call yourself Oden, ask yourself, do you really understand Kozuki Oden?" "I don't know." Yamato looked blank. She really wanted to refute Loya and prove that it was not true, but she could not find any reason to refute. Over the years, "Oden" had already become her spiritual pillar.
"Go to sleep, Yamato." "The night is long." Chapter 155 Carrot and Stick Three days later, out to sea of Wano Country. The pirate ship and the warship were one in front and one behind, seemingly chasing each other, but they kept a fairly safe distance from each other and there was no artillery fire.
