Chapter 498 Swordsman

...

"and many more!"

Feng Ren's eyes, which were rough yet delicate, swept over Kin'emon and the others, and finally stopped on a female warrior in armor. He frowned and hurriedly opened his mouth to remind them.

"Hey! Be careful next time you attack! Don't hurt that woman!!"

Feng Ren felt it was necessary to treat the "beautiful girl" swordsman who had the most outstanding appearance (not holding barbecue) among the nine people differently.

I wonder if I, the general who is ten thousand times stronger than Kurozumi Orochi, like beautiful women more than Kurozumi Orochi.

If this beautiful swordsman is noticed by the general and taken into his harem, wouldn't they have offended the person they least want to offend?

"clear!!"

It was just a simple exchange of eyes, and the lackeys nodded in tacit understanding.

"Damn it! I am the son of the main family of the Suzuhou Hanagi-ryu in Wano Country! Kikunosuke! I am an upright samurai! I don't need you to show mercy! Please don't underestimate me!!"

Feeling that he was completely despised and that they even wanted to capture him and make him their mistress, Kikunojo angrily swung the sword in his hand and introduced himself as "Yin Sheng Yang Shuai".

Hearing that this guy who was more feminine than a woman actually called himself a man, the burly men of the lackey banshu were all stunned, and then they all stared at Kikunosuke for a long time.

This! Slender and tall figure, this! White and smooth little face, this! Big eyes like sapphires, this! "Ji"-style hairstyle, except for the flat chest, from any other angle, she is a perfect "beauty", right?

Haha, don’t all ladies like to dress up as men by binding their chests? This person must be the same!

Everyone couldn't help but show three parts of vulgarity and seven parts of sarcasm on their faces.

"hateful!"

Kikunojo bit her rosy lower lip and said coquettishly.

Captain Gel couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw this expression and action.

Asshole! Is this guy really from Wano Country? Are you sure he’s not some alien species from Tai Country?

"Aju, there's no need to explain too much to these guys. Let these bastards see your swordsmanship!"

Kin'emon encouraged.

The two sides immediately became tense.

"Wait!!!"

Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Kozuki Oden, who like Dragon likes to "put the overall situation first", hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

"boom!!"

Kozuki Oden slammed his head hard on the ground, creating a dent in the bluestone paving the road, and shouted loudly.

"I am extremely sorry, General. I am not good at managing my subordinates! I think they were just impulsive and did not mean to offend! General, please..."

"Boom!"

If you're going to do a play, you have to do the whole thing.

Without waiting for Kozuki Oden to finish his words, Gol stomped his head into the ground, then smiled with an arrogant expression.

"Guhehe! I don't care what you think, I only care what I think!"

"M-Lord Oden! Damn Kurozumi Orochi! Let go of Lord Oden!!"

Seeing Kozuki Oden being insulted like this, the Nine Red Scabbards all stood behind with bloodshot eyes and denounced him.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Kozuki Oden, who was being stepped on, suddenly burst into laughter, and then sighed to his retainers.

"I've never seen the world from this angle before. I didn't expect that the scenery I saw close to the ground would have a different charm! Even a grain of sand or an ant can be seen clearly! It's really a magical feeling!"

"Oden Sama?!"

"... "

Kozuki Oden's nonsensical Ah Q-style speech was like a basin of cold water poured directly on everyone's heads, calming them down while completely extinguishing the only fire of resistance in their hearts!

“It’s really, really, really amazing!”

"Oden Sama!!"

The Nine Red Scabbards, who were good at being moved, burst into tears upon hearing such a thought-provoking speech.

"As expected of Oden Sama! Is this a true samurai? So cool!!"

"This is so touching. Oh my god, I want to become a samurai like Lord Oden in the future!!!"

"Damn it! We are so useless, woof!"

The cat and dog hugged each other and wagged their tails excitedly.

...

Kin'emon felt that things were not good. These guys all spoke so nicely that if he didn't say something nice, they would have finished saying everything to him.

"Ah! Miden Sama!"

Kin'emon first fell to the ground with a cry, and pounded the stone slabs on the road angrily to vent his anger. After attracting the attention of everyone present, Kin'emon began to narrate in tears.

"Even when facing all kinds of humiliation from the enemy, he clearly had the strength to resist, but he always chose to endure it, just like he has been insisting on dancing naked in the Flower Capital for the past three years!"

"Although Lord Oden is always reluctant to explain too much, in fact, each of us knows in our hearts that a man like him must have his reasons for doing this!"

"That great man! He must be carrying something silently alone!!"

After saying this, Kin'emon wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and then put on an expression as if he had seen through everything.

"That's very well said, Nishiki-sama! You are indeed a retainer who is deeply trusted by Lord Oden. I think you are right! This must be the case!"

Kikunosho believed it and said.

Hearing the conversation between several people, Gel couldn't help but pinch his philtrum.

"It's all our fault for being incompetent! We allowed Lord Oden to be humiliated like this!!"

Denjiro, who was wearing gentle round-frame glasses, gritted his teeth and spoke excitedly.

"Don't blame yourself, Denjiro. It's not like there's nothing we can do!"

Kin'emon said righteously.

Oh?

Have you finally reached the point where you can no longer endure it?

Are you finally ready to rebel?

Mihawk, who was almost falling asleep while standing beside Gur, finally opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the nine Wano warriors after hearing this.

"Ahem! As retainers, we should stand together with the master of the family. We can't let Lord Oden bear it alone!!"

"Bang bang bang!!"

After Kin'emon finished speaking, he led the Nine Red Scabbards to kneel down in front of "Kurozumi Orochi".

Do you want to kneel together?

What kind of common advancement and retreat is this?

Gel complained wildly in his heart.

Mihawk frowned and looked at Kozuki Oden and Kin'emon who were still smiling happily, and couldn't help but speak with a serious face.

"How sad! Can't you hear the sword in your hand howling in pain? You may be very powerful, but you are definitely the worst swordsman I have ever seen!"

Mihawk said as he thrust the Black Blade Night back into his back and turned to leave.

Kozuki Oden was stunned and the silly smile on his face froze.

Gel was also stunned, thinking to himself, "Don't do anything improvisational, or else you won't be able to continue the role and the director will call you "cut"!"

"Damn it! What are you talking about, you self-righteous guy! You don't understand how hard Lord Oden has worked! You don't know how much he has shouldered alone..."

Kin'emon jumped out anxiously to protect his master, but was glared at by Mihawk, who turned around and gave him a fierce look, so fierce that he shut his mouth.

Mihawk looked at Kozuki Oden again and said in a cold tone.

"A swordsman should be fearless and unstoppable! Someone like you who doesn't even have the courage to draw your sword is not worthy of the name of a swordsman! You are so despicable that you are not even worthy of me swinging my sword!!"

"... "

Kozuki Oden's eyes were a little dazed, and he opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
