Chapter 259 Who is right and who is wrong

"Isn't he here?" Shimotsuki Ushimaru looked around and didn't see Shimotsuki Yasuie.

"No, one of his warriors came, but he himself is still hesitating." Ugetsu Tempura said.

"He is still struggling over whether to go to war with the beasts. Doesn't he understand that if we don't drive the beasts out, we will lose our place to live? This is Wano Country! It's not a place where outsiders can run wild." Fugetsu Miyame said.

"I know Yasuie. He always hopes that ordinary people can live well, and you all know the situation of the beasts. At least the people's lives are much better than when we were here." After all, Shimotsuki Ushimaru and Shimotsuki Yasuie are of the same clan, and they often chat with each other, so they know more about the situation of Shimotsuki Yasuie.

"But that doesn't need outsiders to do it, we will do it ourselves." Ugetsu Tempura snorted coldly.

"Will you really do it? Ask yourself, Ugetsu Daimyo, will you really do this? Even if we can really drive away the beasts, you will probably return to the previous state, whether it is you or the samurai and nobles under you." Shimotsuki Ushimaru said in a low voice.

"What do you mean!" Ugetsu Tempura slammed the table and looked at Shimotsuki Ushimaru in front of him with an angry face.

"It doesn't mean anything, just stating a fact." Shimotsuki Ushimaru raised his head and took a sip of the wine he brought, saying calmly.

If the policy of the beasts has any major impact on the noble class of Wano Country, in addition to living conditions, the biggest difference is that they have successfully divided some nobles who still have consciences, such as Akisui Denjiro, Shimotsuki Yasuie, and Shimotsuki Ushimaru.

Perhaps they were the vested interests in this system, but that doesn't mean they think it's right. They are just trapped in this environment and don't know where to go. When someone points out a way for them and shows them that this way is indeed the right way, they may hesitate or wait and see, but at least they are thinking. They are different from others. They have opened their eyes and look at the right way. Even if they haven't taken a step yet, at least they are prepared.

"Okay, we finally avoided the eyes of the beasts and came to this meeting not to quarrel." Fugetsu Mijie looked at the furious Ugetsu Tempura and the unusually calm Shimotsuki Gyumaru, and hurried out to make peace. He was afraid that if he didn't pay attention, the two would fight. He was not worried about Shimotsuki Gyumaru. After all, among these daimyo, Shimotsuki Gyumaru is the best fighter except Kozuki Oden, and Ugetsu Tempura is not his opponent.

"I don't think we have avoided the eyes of the beasts, but they simply don't want to pay attention to us. You should know that no matter how careful we are, we can't avoid the sight of those farmers, and these people are the eyes of the beasts, and they all stand with the beasts." Shimotsuki Ushimaru broke Fugetsu Mikie's self-righteousness without any hesitation, and ruthlessly put the truth in front of him.

"Humph, those low-class people, do they still have a little shame of Wano Country! My samurai just went out of the city to do something, and they dared to attack!" Ugetsu Tempura snorted again.

"Yes, those low-class people are so cunning, so shameless, and have no respect for the noble samurai." Ugetsu Tempura didn't expect Shimotsuki Ushimaru to agree with him, and just when Ugetsu Tempura wanted to agree with Shimotsuki Ushimaru's words, Shimotsuki Ushimaru suddenly changed the subject.

"Who taught them this? It was us! The warriors! We were the noble lords who were high above us! You say they are cunning and shameless, but have you ever thought about why they did this? We took away their last grain of food, starved their old people and children to death, and robbed their beautiful wives, all because of our so-called nobility! Are we noble? Where are we noble? The weapons in our hands? Why can't they pick up weapons? Or is our nobility in this so-called title? If we remove this title, what do we have left?"

"Look at us now, we are hiding in this small room, holding a meeting that you would have absolutely despised. Why don't you talk about the previous pomp and circumstance? Why don't you talk about your aristocratic style? Didn't you always say that those styles were part of the nobility, and laughed at me and the Kang family for this!" Shuangxue Niuwan stood up, his momentum was getting higher and higher, and as he spoke, even his height seemed to be raised.

"You!" Even Fugetsu Miyame couldn't help it this time. He stood up and pointed at Shimotsuki Ushimaru, but he couldn't say anything except the word "you", because he knew that Shimotsuki Ushimaru was right. They were indeed committed to a house that they had never even looked at before, holding this dispensable meeting, and even at this point, they arranged seats. Only the three of them could enter the house. Others, including the samurai who came on behalf of Shimotsuki Yasuie, could only wait outside the door.

They did all this to save their almost non-existent face, and named it in the name of rules and shame, but now, all of this was torn apart by Shimotsuki Ushimaru, naked and bloody.

Shimotsuki Ushimaru was right. They were no different from the untouchables they talked about. Even if there were differences in martial arts, they were all human beings.

And could they admit it? Impossible!

Why? For their own nobility!

Why? For their own bloodline!

Why? For their own glory!

But that is not true nobility, blood is meaningless, false glory is just the dirtiest fig leaf, they are just barely maintaining their so-called aristocratic style, wanting to tell themselves, no, deceive themselves, what they are doing is right, it is correct, their high position is meaningful, they can drive away the beasts, they can return to the past, they can control those people again, and become the daimyo who is under one person and above ten thousand people again.

Do they have a bottom line?

No, they don't. As daimyo, they are not fools. Those samurai can't see it, can they still not see it? Those ordinary people have changed. They are no longer cattle and sheep that can be driven at will. Under the influence of the beasts, in just a few years, they have understood that the era of arbitrary exploitation has passed.

But these vested interests don't want to wake up, they don't want to wake up. They think that as long as they sleep, the future will definitely be good. As long as they drive away the beasts, they can use force to make those people who have opened their eyes close their eyes again and continue to be driven by them.

Shimotsuki Ushimaru looked at the two people who stood up, shook his head gently, turned around and left without saying anything.

"Reiko Daimyo! Where are you going!" Fugetsu Miyame said.

"Go back, we can't work together if we don't share the same ideals." Shimotsuki Ushimaru didn't stop or look back, just said lightly.

"Clang." The door of the hut was opened, and the warriors waiting outside the door all looked here.

"Catch him! He's going to join the beasts!" Ugetsu Tempura shouted loudly.

"Clang clang." Upon hearing this, these warriors drew their swords reflexively, but no one dared to move, after all, that was Reiko Daimyo, Shimotsuki Ushimaru.

"I won't help the beasts, because Wano Country is my homeland after all, and I don't want outsiders to interfere, but I won't help you either, because I can't live with my own conscience. So that's it, I've said this, take care of yourself."

Shimotsuki Ushimaru left this sentence and walked forward alone, and none of the warriors who drew their swords dared to step forward, and silently retreated to the sides. The weapons that were originally drawn to stop Shimotsuki Ushimaru became the support for Shimotsuki Ushimaru to send him off, so ridiculous.

"Ah." Shimotsuki Ushimaru sighed softly. He didn't want to make such a stalemate, but when he saw the beasts' actions and the ancient scrolls hidden deep in his home, he couldn't convince himself. He hoped that his choice was right, and that the beasts' actions were not just performances.

He suddenly missed his sister Shimotsuki Vibrator, who had left without hesitation in his early years. After all, his sister was smarter than him since childhood, but in Wano Country, women had no chance to make a name for themselves, so she left. If she was still there, she might be able to see more clearly than himself.

"I hope I'm right, what do you think? Onimaru."

"Ouch——"
