A fruit-cutting competition ended happily with the explosion of "bang, bang, bang".
Gaz found the Wano trio in the background, who were covered in jet black as if they had returned from digging coal, and enthusiastically went up to shake hands.
"Congratulations, your sword skills really opened my eyes! Come on, here are your temporary passes and prizes, valid within a week."
Only the top three can get the pass. Momonosuke was successfully knocked down by a peach bomb and took the third to last place.
Looking at the palm-sized pass in his hand, Kanjuro and Kinemon looked at each other, and suddenly they hugged each other and cried bitterly.
"Kanjuro, we did it!"
"That's right Kin'emon, we did it!"
This Laoshizi Fruit Ninja Contest, I really believe you!
If the two of them hadn't passed the technical test, they would have been almost like Momonosuke, being sent off the stage by a bomb.
Wait, Momonosuke
Suddenly, Kinemon calmed down and asked: "Host, can only the two of us go in?"
"Um?"
Gaz, who was about to turn around and leave, looked back at them and gave them a strange look: "Of course, one person, one vote, cannot replace overdue votes, that's all."
"That… "
Kinemon's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked back at Momonosuke, who was lying on the bed with bandages on his body, his pupils were dull, and he was still suffering from a concussion.
"We were the only ones in."
"Actually, that's not bad, isn't it?"
Kanjuro lifted his chin with his hand and said, "We don't know the situation in Area 4 for the time being. If any danger occurs, the young master will be timid around him."
"It makes sense!"
"So… "
In the restaurant, Ron stood up and stretched: "Then... As expected, they will come to Area 4 tomorrow. Pay more attention to this little devil Cyrus and don't let him slip away."
"I understand!"
Cyrus nodded solemnly. He just wanted to clear out these unstable factors from Dressrosa. As long as the methods were not so excessive, it doesn't matter whether you are an adult or a child.
"Well, just have an idea."
He has no intention of getting involved in the arrest of Momonosuke. He has to do everything himself, so what is the use of this position
As long as there is no one who must die, Ron will do things based on his mood.
…
The next day, at the entrance to Area 4.
"Young Master, please be more careful, we are going in!"
"Don't worry Kin'emon, I'm also a samurai and I'll take care of myself!"
"Little Lord!"
"Kin'emon!"
call…
The soldier commander in charge of checking the admission tickets took a puff of cigarette and looked at the scene before him with a speechless expression that looked like life and death.
"Leave if you don't want to come in, don't block the queues of people behind you!"
"Look here, although you are allowed to come in, remember, this is the palace of Dressrosa. There are some places that are not allowed to enter. Be careful not to go where you shouldn't go. You won't be jailed if you are caught. Legal bail!”
"Follow the soldiers and ask them if you don't understand anything. Let's get to the next batch!"
Following the guide soldiers into the palace area, Kinemon was surprised to find that it was not as dangerous as they thought.
Although they can only move around the edges of the main palace, there are signboards and soldiers patrolling key places, so as long as they don't touch those places, their range of activities is quite free.
In Dressrosa, which has already programmed it, this setting is quite beneficial.
"If I had known, I would have brought the young master in as much as possible."
Kinemon held a box of takoyaki: "Except for feeling the aura of the palace up close, this place is no different from other areas."
"No, there are still some!"
Kanjuro said solemnly, and suddenly turned around: "Look, that is Princess Rebecca, the granddaughter of King Riku. Have you seen the royal family doing this elsewhere?"
In a small garden on the edge of the palace, Rebecca's sudden arrival made the tourists excited.
King Liku has always implemented his own pro-people politics. In fact, he has no hard and fast rules. It is just that everyone has come through hard times and lives can't help but be in line with the people.
"indeed… "
Looking at the girl surrounded by the people, Kinemon's eyes suddenly darkened and he murmured to himself: "Oden-sama... it was the same way back then."
Kanjuro was silent.
Yes, Lord Kozuki Oden was like this at the beginning.
He took these trashy guys out of Jiuli, but the result...
"Stop talking nonsense. We are lucky. The place we want to go is not occupied by the newly built palace. Let's hurry over while that woman attracts attention."
At this time, the flamingo in the backpack interrupted their memories and reminded them in a low voice.
"Yes, the top priority is to help Pink Feather find the treasure it left behind."
"It's Master Pink Feather, you idiot!"
In the corner of the palace's high platform, Ron leaned against the window edge and calmly took a puff of his cigar.
"Sure enough, what they are looking for is in Area 4...but what could it be?"
Hearing this, King Liku put down his telescope and frowned.
"That direction... General Canglong, is where the former King's Highland was."
"Oh? The former site of the royal palace...?"
Ron nodded: "It's almost time to start preparing. Be careful not to alert the enemy."
"clear!"
The words were divided into two parts. Under Pink Feather's instructions, the group came to an inaccessible corner of Area 4 and stopped in front of a large raised rock.
At this point, Pink Feather also got out of the backpack.
Looking at the overgrown land in front of him, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
"I still remember that back then, it was very lively here..."
"But that's good, it means no one notices what's hidden underground."
Thinking of this, Pink Feather said: "You two, help me keep an eye outside, I'm going to open the door."
After saying that, he flapped his wings and flew to the top of the stone, swatting away the gravel and dust on it, and looking for it.
After a while...
"found it!"
Looking at the outline of the palm print that had been eroded by the wind and rain, Pink Feather was in a trance. The flowers were similar every year, but the people were different every year. If it was still back then, he could never remember that he was still here. Hidden something.
After all, at that time, he dominated the world and was the unique underworld giant in the new world. These treasures he left behind as trump cards when he started out were not worth mentioning at all later.
Now, it is his only chance to rise up and take revenge!
Thinking of this, Pink Feather pressed the wings on it and pushed hard...
Click!
(￣￣)…
"What happened?"
"No... nothing."
Covering her wings, Pink Feather resisted the pain and raised her head stubbornly: "Well, this mechanism seems to be stuck. Come and try it."
Kinemon: "..."
"One, two, three, harder!"
"One, two, three, try harder!"
"One, two, three...be careful!"
Boom!
With a moderate collapse sound, the wind-and-rain-beaten rock suddenly cracked into pieces of rubble. Kanjuro got up from the ground, cleared away the dust, and looked at the passage in front of him in a daze.
“What a spectacular tunnel!”
Even just the entrance, the corners are filled with various gems and gold. One can imagine how many treasures are buried in the deepest secret room.
Seeing this, Pink Feather stood up and grinned.
"Is it spectacular?"
"Back then... forget it, let's go down quickly. The movement just now may have attracted the attention of the guards. We only take the most valuable ones and leave."
After that, Pink Feather took the lead and flew into the passage.
Kanjuro and Kinemon looked at each other and quickly followed.
After they left, Ron, King Riku and others appeared outside the passage, the latter frowning.
"Impossible! There is a treasure room here, I didn't even know it."
"Then I'm even more curious about how they knew it!"
Ron narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth.
