Passed unanimously, protest invalid.
Sauron was ordered to stay and look after the house. After all, there were many resistance fighters recuperating where they were hiding. If they were discovered by the enemy, they had to ensure that they could escape.
Chopper and other injured people also stayed behind, along with Nami. Considering the possible battle that would occur later, no player with insufficient strength could follow.
It's cruel, but it's safe.
Advancing along a crooked passage, everyone came to the entrance of an upward passage. The old female ninja took the lead, pushing open the barrier with flexible hands and feet. After making sure that no one was outside, she signaled to the people behind. You can go up.
"Go east over the hill from here and you will see the ruins of Oden Castle. General Canglong... Huh? Why are you in front of us?"
Kanjuro was about to explain the route when he suddenly realized that only Luffy and Sanji were behind him. Ron, who was supposed to be following the team, disappeared at some point.
Looking back, Ron was standing on the tree trunk, raising his hands and looking out.
"Is that Oden Castle? The ruins alone are so impressive. I can't imagine how spectacular it was before it was destroyed."
Looking beyond the hills blocking the road, what appeared in front of Ron was a huge ruin. The towering city wall still looked majestic and majestic even after years of erosion.
At the same time, the cracks the size of warships appeared on the wall were even more shocking.
"The Oden Castle before it was destroyed...?"
Kanjuro couldn't help but recall the past. For him, it was just a few months ago.
Then he shook his head and said.
"General Canglong, please be careful. In order to avoid being invaded by the enemy, the Kaido coalition has placed a large number of hidden sentries in the country..."
"Oh, it's okay. There are spies only 1,500 meters west of here, and he's even sleeping."
Before he finished speaking, Ron waved his hand and interrupted.
"Leave it to me to lead the way. Just keep an eye on the surroundings and don't let anyone take advantage of the loopholes."
"Is this... the legendary 'Skynet'?"
Sanji lit his cigarette and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Admiral Canglong's unique special knowledge color domineering energy can monitor a range of several kilometers around him."
"How many kilometers?"
Kanjuro took a breath. During his time at sea, he had also learned about the power of Haki. Doesn't Haki only work when the distance between the two parties is close
"To be precise, it's a regular circle with a diameter of fifty-three kilometers..."
Ron glanced at Sanji in surprise. It seemed that they had done a lot of intelligence work in order to defeat him.
"The single-line distance is more than a hundred kilometers."
"As long as I am willing, I can attack from hundreds of kilometers away before the enemy finds our traces."
"Of course, the farther the distance, the greater the energy consumption. Being able to monitor easily does not mean that you can easily land an attack."
As he spoke, Ron landed lightly on the ground and pointed to the southeast.
"We found Lirisk, let's go this way."
Found it? !
Kanjuro and Sanji looked at each other, unable to hide the shock in their eyes.
"Tsk, so why can't pirates get along with the navy?"
Rubbing his blond hair with a headache, Sanji smiled bitterly and said: "The thought of being an enemy of such a monster is really despairing!"
It's hundreds of kilometers across the sky, and the Sonny's special jet blasting device has to jet seven or eight times to fly over this distance. It still has enough reserves to ignore the risk of the ship's hull disintegration... and the other party just consumes a lot of money.
"Well, there will always be a way, let's talk about it then!"
Luffy smiled heartlessly, leaving the two of them speechless.
…
Oden City was close at hand, Lirisk suddenly stopped and shouted.
"That's enough, this is it."
“…”
Xiao Zi didn't answer and stood silently.
She had a hunch in her heart that if nothing else happened, Lirisk was doubting her.
"We have been out for three hours. In three hours, as long as those people are not useless, it will be easy to find our traces."
Boom!
Xiao Zi's heart exploded with thunder, and her ominous premonition came true!
But her expression did not change, and she suppressed the fear in her heart.
"Is this why you did what you did?"
Hearing this, Lirisk turned back curiously.
"Yeah, what's the problem?"
What is the problem
Xiaozi sneered: "I see, you suspect that I have colluded with those rebels, and you want to use me to lure them out... But how are you sure that I have contact with them? I am the number one geisha in Wano Country, Lian Heitan The generals respect me so much, why should I have contact with them?”
"Now the general should be looking for me throughout the city. If you guessed wrong, where do you think you stand?"
Orric is an ally of General Black Carbon, but his son did these things to him. I dare not say that the alliance will break down, at least there will definitely be a rift.
Such an important question is just speculation...
"What a willful Tianlong!"
In response, Lirisk narrowed his eyes slightly.
"A sharp-tongued little girl...Should I cooperate with you and act like I'm regretful and frightened?"
Xiao Zi's face darkened.
"What's the meaning?"
"Indeed, I have no direct evidence of your connection with the rebels, but I am more certain that your purpose of approaching the Black Carbon Serpent is not so pure."
Lirisk walked over slowly, his cold eyes turning into ruthless vertical pupils like a lizard at some point, like a hunting snake, calm and cruel.
Xiao Zi couldn't help but take a half step back, her heel hit the stone, and she fell to the ground.
"In recent years, there has been a legend about a strange thief in Wano that has been circulating among the people. I wonder if you know it."
The "Phantom Thief" Ugly Boy is a strange thief who only appears at three o'clock in the evening. He throws gold coins from unknown sources into the slums and distributes them to the poor, so he is very famous among the people.
"But...then what? You want to say that I have a connection with the Phantom Thief?"
"Yes and no."
Standing in front of Xiao Zi, Li Ruisi said condescendingly: "It's just that the legend of the three ugly boys of the 'Phantom Thieves' began to spread in the Flower City. It happened to be when you became famous in Wano Country. There were no more than three people between you and me. moon."
"And something interesting happened in these three months."
"Wha... what?"
Xiao Zi's face turned ugly, and she realized that she had exposed so many traces.
"General Kurotan Orochi became interested in a geisha and spent huge sums of money to help her win the title of oiran. Because of the general's love, she became the number one geisha known throughout the country."
"And this geisha is you."
Looking at Xiao Zi with white lips, Li Ruisi shook his head in dismay: "You have too many loopholes, Miss Xiao Zi... even the black charcoal snake who was blinded by your beauty can't find it."
"But that's not why I came to you. It's none of my business that you defrauded him of his money... But there is one question I haven't found the answer to yet."
Looking over quietly, Lirisk let out a cold breath.
"Your expenses are not big, and you have no chance to use your own money. Wherever you go, there are people helping you take care of everything, so even if you include the portion distributed to the poor, the total amount is not much... But no matter you The money obtained through the well-known fraud method is still the reward given to you by General Heitan, which is far from commensurate with this amount. "
"So what? Geisha will grow old and lose her beauty one day. What's wrong with me saving some coffin books?!"
Xiao Zi is still making her final struggle.
In response, Liriske coldly shattered her last extravagant hope: "You should know that before Black Carbon Orochi joined forces with us, the largest arms trade partner was the World Government, right?"
"Then what method do you think they use to circulate funds? Cash? Bailey on the sea doesn't seem to be widely circulated in Wano, right?"
The country of Wano is independent and has its own money system. It can use beli because it can be exchanged with its own currency.
And that national currency…
Looking at her, Lirisk sneered.
"Yes, it's gold!"
"They use gold as their currency, which is also the only currency recognized by the top leaders of Wano... and the person who acts as their middleman is the famous Golden Emperor, Gilder Tezoro!"
Xiao Zi immediately held her breath and figured out the key point.
The man in front of me was a Celestial Dragon a few years ago, and the relationship between the Golden Emperor and the Celestial Dragons was well known to the world. In addition to friendship, more importantly, the benefits he brought made the Celestial Dragons willing to compromise.
What benefits
Take advantage of the card!
The Celestial Dragon-like parasitic methods are lying on this trade line to suck blood!
"It seems you understand? Otherwise, where do you think my father got the funds for his rebellion?"
Lirisk shrugged and smiled.
"The entire bank that exists in Wano belongs to our Nibelungen family. It is clear to us who deposited what in them."
"You...do you have anything else to explain?"
