Chapter 160: Journey to Wano Country: Healing through War...

The Heitan family was intimidated by Arthur. There seemed to be an invisible sense of oppression from the other party, and not a word he said sounded like bragging.

His tone was calm, and he didn't deliberately lower his voice; he just said it naturally.

Kurozumi Orochi was intimidated by Arthur's aura and was a little dazed. He glanced at Kurozumi Chanmaru behind him.

"Don't look at me, Lord Orochi. Now you are the general of Wano Country. You have the final say on whether to fight or make peace." said Kurozumi Chanmaru.

Everyone was motionless, but Arthur leisurely ate the food at the banquet.

The falling cherry blossoms outside the balcony of the General's Mansion are particularly pleasing to the eye.

Arthur looked outside and broke the silence: "In fact, the barrier around you that protects you is not invincible."

"Haha, this is a barrier that even Oden can't break. Who do you think you are to brag?"

"Don't believe his slander, Lord Orochi. I will not remove the barrier fruit until I know his true purpose."

Arthur grinned at the two's persistence.

"The so-called indestructible barrier fruit?"

Arthur observed the barrier and released the extreme icy power in his body, spreading it throughout the banquet.

The transparent protective cover freezes instantly.

It turned into a round block of ice, blocking the view of the giant snake inside.

"What's going on? Is the barrier frozen?" The big snake inside the ball couldn't see the situation outside and fell into panic.

In an instant, Arthur put down what he was doing, drew his sword, walked to the front of the barrier, and pointed the tip of the Ice Dragon Sword at the frozen barrier.

In an instant, the domineering aura in his body was condensed and the air flow gathered on the blade.

"There is no devil fruit ability that cannot be broken," he said with a domineering aura lingering around him, and his powerful domineering aura stunned everyone at the banquet and laughed:

"Under absolute dominance!"

Arthur pushed the hilt of the knife with his palm, and all his strength burst out instantly.

Boom! The general's mansion was immediately crushed, and wood chips flew everywhere.

The explosion resounded throughout the sky above the Flower City, and the domineering aura of the king tore through the clouds.

"What!" Kurozumi Chanmaru was shocked when he saw the surface of the barrier begin to tear like a spider web from the center.

The previously invincible barrier fruit was shattered for the first time.

"Break it for me." Arthur increased his strength when he saw that his domineering Haki was effective.

The tip of the knife pierced into the ice and penetrated the shield of the barrier fruit.

The shape of Arthur's blade formed inside the barrier, and its toughness was gradually broken by its domineering aura.

Looking at the barrier that was falling apart bit by bit and about to shatter.

The pupils of Kurozumi Orochi and his retainers trembled, and they could not believe what they saw.

"My invincible protective shield actually cracked..." Kurozumi Chanmaru finished speaking.

Bang! The next second, the barrier fruit's protective shield shattered and exploded in front of their retainers.

"Cooper, kill that old man!" Arthur saw the protective shield being broken and immediately shouted to Cooper behind him.

Cooper, who was meditating with his eyes closed, received the order and suddenly opened his sharp eagle eyes.

Eagle Claw stomped the floor hard and used the Sixth Style: Shave to instantly appear in front of Heitan Chanwan's face.

"Cooper..." (Violent Skull Splitting) Cooper opened his eagle claws and stretched out towards Kurozumi Chanmaru's skull.

"Don't even think about it!" Seeing the eagle suddenly appearing in front of him, Kurotan Chanwan quickly activated his ability and instantly...

His body seemed to be violently impacted by some terrifying aura, rendering him unable to activate his Devil Fruit ability.

During the banquet at the General's Mansion, red lightning continuously flowed out of Arthur's body like a torrent.

The main beam in the house was cracked by the impact of the Domineering Haki, which violently washed over the brains of everyone at the banquet.

"Ah! Who are you?" Kurozumi Orochi saw Arthur's appearance.

Cooper grabbed Kurozumi Chanmaru's head with one claw, and the terrifying force of his claw caused his head to begin to twist and collapse.

In just a few seconds, the sound of a skull cracking was heard.

In an instant, his head was crushed like a balloon by Cooper's claws.

"Okay, let's have some fun. I don't like your country in the first place, so this is a good opportunity to relieve my boredom."

Arthur held a single sword in his hand, his entire body burning with red aura.

His eyes were as sharp as torches and he was calm and composed as he released the domineering aura in his body.

Just relying on the domineering color, it is enough to cause substantial damage to objects.

The endless murderous intent that has been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations, the red lightning that spans ancient and modern times, towers over the entire sky of the Flower City.

People from house to house in the Flower City foamed at the mouth and fainted one after another.

Arthur released his domineering aura, suppressing everyone in the General's Mansion and the city inside and outside the General's Mansion, and said domineeringly:

"Domineering is above everything else."

In the city, citizens, businessmen and other people are discussing attacking other territories and discussing the development of the country.

They were all unconsciously stunned by the shocking and domineering aura coming from the general's mansion.

"What a powerful domineering! What is Kurozumi Orochi doing?" Hyogoro, one of the gang bosses, came to the street.

Looking at the citizens foaming at the mouth all over the ground, he and other underworld bosses quickly rushed to the general's mansion.

Orochi Castle, Veranda, Rakshasa Town, Sakyo, Yuya, Fujiyama, and Ebisu Town.

Kuri, the base of Lord Kozuki Oden.

In Kurima Oden's mansion, Toki was holding the young Hiyori and Momonosuke, looking at the red lightning that broke through the sky in the Flower Capital.

"Mother, what happened?" Momonosuke asked Mitsuki Toki.

"The man who will destroy this country... is here... and no one can stop him." Kozuki Toki had seen this doomsday scene before.

She had known that this would happen when she took the initiative to spy on Arthur's future while fighting against Roger's pirate group.

"How could this happen? Is there no one who can stop it?" Momonosuke's face was filled with horror as he looked at the sky above the Flower Capital in the distance, which was like a natural disaster.

Kozuki collapsed on the floor of his home, trembling all over: "A man who has lost his mind and gone astray in pursuit of becoming stronger, no one can stop him, unless the country unites... Otherwise, today, Wano Country will be destroyed just like what I encountered!"

The residence of the queen daimyo.

Shimotsuki Ushimaru, who was rescued by his retainers, was wrapped in bandages and looking at the sudden strange weather in the Flower Capital in the distance.

"Is today the day of the destruction that Madam Shi mentioned?"

"Ah, that's right." After falling into Linghou, Oden sat cross-legged in Linghou Daimyo's mansion and drank tea.

It was as if he had predicted that Arthur would come to this country.

"Is it the man who injured me, with an eagle by his side?" Shimotsuki Niuwan said with a toothpick in his mouth.

The scene before him made him very calm.

“Since this is something that is destined to happen, it is inevitable and cannot be stopped.

Then let it happen, and then we can stop it together."

"That's why I'm talking to you about this here, Ushimaru. Arthur has suffered serious injuries that are difficult to recover from. This is our chance to defeat him." Kozuki Oden said.

"It's hard to believe that there are such young men overseas. It's really hard to defeat him alone." Niu Wan said.

"No, it is completely unbeatable. Let's go and gather all the daimyo to resist."

"Destroying other countries just for the sake of fighting is totally unacceptable!"

"Ushimaru, there is a high probability that I will die in the battle, so I leave my family in your care." Oden gave a temporary instruction.

In fact, Arthur did not want to destroy it, but he came here simply because he did not like the existence of Wano Country in this world.

Flower City·General's Mansion——

All of the retainers of the Kurozumi family, except Orochi, foamed at the mouth and fainted.

"Eight lives?" Arthur approached the trembling black charcoal snake.

Having lost all his protection, he was like a lamb to be slaughtered, timid and cowardly.

"Ah!" the black charcoal snake screamed.

Because, every step closer to him from Arthur, who was releasing his domineering aura with all his strength, would cause his body, consciousness, and brain to suffer a horrible shock.

He couldn't even use the devil fruit in his body.

Arthur stepped closer to him and grabbed him by the collar with his bare hands.

He dragged the giant snake, which was several times larger than him, onto the balcony without any guardrails and overlooked the Flower City below.

"Instead of bowing down to this guy, how about I become the general of Wano Country?" Arthur said to several powerful gangsters who had rushed to the general's mansion below.

"Let me go, please. I can agree to anything you want."

Hearing what Kurozumi Orochi said, Arthur stabbed him in the neck with a knife.

Kill him.

Everyone below was shocked. Such decisiveness was a little scary.

"Fooled!" Arthur cursed at him, "Even if I kill you, I can still get what you can't give me."

Logically speaking, after killing him once, Yamata no Orochi would still have seven lives left.

Arthur watched, and sure enough, after a while, the Black Charcoal Snake was resurrected intact.

"Sir, are you the savior of Wano Country?" Below, Hyogoro asked Arthur.

To deal with Orochi is undoubtedly to go against Kaido.

And all of them were afraid of Kaido's military power and did not dare to act rashly.

However, Arthur killed the big snake in front of them, and they subconsciously regarded him as a friendly force.

"That's right." Arthur smiled when he heard it: "He is the great savior of Wano Country, but the great savior of these three words, not your great savior!"

As he said this, Arthur cut off the snake's head with a knife and threw it aside.

He leaped down with a knife in hand and fell towards the warriors below.

"Come and fight, warrior gate!"

……

Outside the southern island of Wano Country, on an island called Demon Head Skull Island.

In the castle where Kaido was stationed, Kaido and his subordinates were holding a huge banquet and drinking to celebrate their victory.

"Since defeating Moria and signing a fake treaty with Oden to leave Wano Country in five years, our weapons factories have been built very successfully, Mr. Kaido."

Jin raised his glass and drank with Kaido, and told him about the gains he made in Wano Country.

"Jin, Roger's death has brought the status of pirates to a higher level."

"Brother Kaido, are you talking about the Pirate King?"

"That's right. Next we are going to fight for the throne of the Four Emperors. I will use my own strength to defeat all those old men of the old times and become the strongest representative of the era!"

Kaido was talking to Jin, and his face looked a little tipsy and drunk.

After so many years of hard work, I finally found a place to live.

"Even if you want to destroy the world, I will follow you to the death, Mr. Kaido. I will definitely send you to the throne of the strongest, the Pirate King!" Jin said to him firmly.

Kaido smiled with relief at having such a loyal subordinate.

I feel like I saved the right person in Punk Hazard.

"It's too early. We have to take it one step at a time. There's no rush." ​​Kaido responded with a big laugh and looked at him.

"Oh no! Governor Kaido!" The two were chatting happily.

During the banquet, a subordinate dressed in animal skin came to report with a panicked look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Kaido stopped drinking and asked immediately when he saw that he looked nervous.

"Are the warriors starting to make trouble again?" Jhin stepped forward, thinking that it was those unyielding warriors causing trouble again.

"No! Governor Kaido, an out-islander named Arthur came to Flower City and knocked out all the dignitaries of Flower City that we kept in captivity."
