Chapter 173 Don’t mess with the King of Sweat

"No."

Faced with Lu Li's proposal, Kaido refused without thinking.

Now, thanks to Lu Li's efforts, Wano Country is becoming better and better, and the income of the Beasts Pirates is increasing. Kaido certainly trusts Lu Li very much, and he has long taken off the handcuffs on Lu Li and Yamato.

He didn't want to restrict Lu Li's freedom, but he felt that Wano Country and the Beasts Pirates were currently in a period of rapid development, and without Lu Li, the whole thing might not be able to run smoothly.

"Mr. Kaido, if you are worried about the operation of Wano Country, I have made arrangements."

Lu Li guessed Kaido's thoughts and explained, "At present, all projects are being carried out step by step. I have also given the follow-up plan to Yamato. If Yamato has any questions, he will discuss them with the Kang family. Therefore, even without my supervision, Wano Country can slowly develop."

He said this not only to dispel Kaido's worries, but also to give him a heads-up in advance. After all, he didn't have much time left in this world. If he could go out to sea this time, he might never return to Wano Country.

According to the information he collected in the space, his current understanding of the mission world is that if he wants to come to this world next time, it is better to have a suitable "disappearance reason"

Otherwise, it would be troublesome for the space to help you arrange your identity, and if it wastes more energy, the space might consider the "cost-effectiveness" and send you to a new mission world instead of going to a large world you have been to before.

Therefore, the way Lu Li handled the situation in the world of Death was a perfect exit. The next time he returned to the world of Death, he could easily explain his disappearance. After all, he was brought into the Hueco Mundo by the Hollow.

The same is true in the world of pirates. If Lu Li disappeared inexplicably on the territory of Wano Country, considering Kaido's current importance to himself, he would probably turn Wano Country upside down.

This is not a good thing. If he fails to handle it properly, the foundation that he has worked so hard to build for the Beasts Pirates and the trust of the people of Wano will all be gone.

Therefore, if he wants to leave this world, it is better to do it overseas, so that some suspense can be left.

After all, the ocean is so vast, it is possible that some people in the One Piece world are trapped in strange places for many years and cannot get out.

Especially since their target this time is Sky Island, Lu Li has many suitable reasons to disappear, and it won't cause too much trouble.

"No, we are going out to grab the historical text this time, so we won't need your strength."

Kaido still shook his head. In his opinion, Lu Li had a first-rate mind and had directly helped the Beasts Pirates to open up a new situation.

But this time they were going out to fight, and Lu Li's strength was barely that of a real fighting-level cadre. If something unexpected happened in the chaos of battle, where could he find such a strong military advisor?

"Mr. Kaido, this is wrong."

Lu Li said with a smile, and then looked at Jin, "Mr. Jin, you also said that the blind swordsman is very powerful. I'm afraid he is not much inferior to the admirals of the navy, right?"

Jhin nodded, "Indeed, otherwise I wouldn't have been injured."

Hearing this, Lu Li turned to look at Kaido again, "Mr. Kaido, as far as I know, he has always been a righteous knight. He attacked Mr. Jin because he probably heard a lot of bad things about our Beasts Pirates on the sea and felt that we were bullying the people, which led to the conflict."

"It doesn't matter what the reason is. He hurt Jhin, and I want his life."

Kaido's voice was low and there was an angry look on his face.

"Mr. Kaido, how about we listen to Mr. Jin's opinion?"

Lu Li knew that Kaido was very protective, especially of his confidant Jhin, so it was useless for him to just talk.

He turned to ask Jin, "Mr. Jin, if he is willing to join the Beast Pirates in his lifetime, can you forgive him?"

Jin frowned at first, then nodded, "If he is willing to join Mr. Kaido, I certainly won't mind, but is it really possible?"

Kaido now realized what Lu Li wanted to say, "Lu Li, do you mean that you want to go with us to persuade Issei to join the Beasts Pirates?"

"exactly."

Lu Li nodded and said, "He is a powerful fighter all his life. Remember what we discussed before? He is the third type of person, a strong man with conviction. If he can agree with Mr. Kaido, the strength of the Beasts Pirates will skyrocket."

In the original work, Issei joined the navy and became the new admiral after the Battle of Marineford, but he didn't serve as admiral for long. Later, in a battle with the Revolutionary Army, he turned against Luffy and joined forces with Dragon, his father.

This man has always had his own sense of justice throughout his life. He originally joined the navy because he thought the navy was just, but after he became an admiral he found that this was not the case.

Later, after seeing too much filth in Doflamingo's country, he began to waver. He first proposed to abolish the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and later felt that the World Government was too corrupt, so he joined the Revolutionary Army.

Lu Li felt that it would be better for him to follow Kaido than to follow the "King of Sweat" for the rest of his life. Based on his understanding of the original work, the Revolutionary Army was actually quite incompetent.

Leader Dragon sweats all day long and is not as powerful as Sabo. Now that Wano Country is on the right track, Kaido, who has the power of a country, is obviously more advantageous than Dragon in the revolution.

"Can he really do that? From what Jhin described, I feel like he's a tough guy."

Kaido asked suspiciously, and no longer said angrily that he would beat Yisheng to death. The main reason was that the other party was really strong, and he was a little tempted.

If he could get Yisheng to join him, he might become the strongest of the four emperors in this sea area.

"That's why I want Mr. Kaido to take me out to sea. If I don't go, who among you is sure you can convince him?"

Lu Li said with a smile.

In fact, he was not sure that he could convince Yisheng, but this was indeed a good reason for Kaido to take him out to sea. Sky Island was a good place. The historical text had no appeal to him, but he could reach various Sky Islands from the Baron Terminal. Calculating the time, Sky Island Bika should not have been destroyed yet. He might be able to hunt a good devil fruit.

"Well... you can, but you have to arrange your work first and make sure there are no problems within Wano Country."

Kaido made the decision after hesitating for a moment, mainly because he realized one thing after the incident with the artificial devil fruit army, that is, no matter how many cannon fodders there are, they are just cannon fodder, and what he needs is top combat power.

Even if the production capacity of Wano Country decreased during the time that Lu Li went to sea with him, it would only be a loss of some money. But if he could get a general-level combat force to join him, it would be a huge help to his hegemony, which cannot be measured by money.

"Thank you Mr. Kaido for your understanding. I will go back and hand over to Yamato."

When Lu Li said this, he started to have a headache again.

Kaido’s side is actually easy to deal with, but Yamato will probably be very dissatisfied with him.

After all, they had agreed to go out to sea together, but now he was going to sneak away and go out to play with her father without taking her.

…………

"What!? Brother Lu is going out to sea!?"

Yamato looked at Lu Li in surprise, "I want to go too!"

Lu Li had guessed that this would happen, and could only comfort him with guilt, "Yamato, you can't leave now. Unlike me, I am the one who makes the plans behind the scenes, and you are the general of Wano Country, the white moonlight in the hearts of the people. Now you must stay to stabilize the people's hearts."

Yamato has been very busy in the past few months. She goes out almost every day to help people do small things, so almost all the people in Wano Country have seen her.

Many people began to accept this new general who was outstanding in appearance, cheerful, generous and kind.

It can be said that Yamato can currently play a role in stabilizing the people's hearts in Wano Country.

If Lu Li and Yamato both left, the Beasts Pirates would no longer have high-level combat power and high-level management, and it would be hard to say whether there would be any chaos in Wano Country.

Therefore, only one of him and Yamato can leave, and he has things to do as an explorer, and he also hopes to get Issei to join him, so he has no choice but to let Yamato stay here.

"But... didn't we agree to go out to sea together?"

Yamato said angrily, "Brother Lu, you broke the contract!"

"Sorry, Yamato, maybe next time."

Lu Li couldn't think of much to say, and at the same time he didn't want to make up a bunch of excuses to deceive Yamato, so he could only postpone the appointment.

"When is the next time?"

Yamato looked aggrieved. "Brother Lu, you know that the affairs of Wano Country are much more troublesome than I thought before. Now I am too busy to do small things for people. The plan you gave me is so long at the end. I don't know how long it will take to finish it."

Lu Li discovered that work can really change a person. Yamato used to be an idle vagrant who only thought about chasing stars and killing his father every day. But after becoming a general and helping people do things, he really matured slowly and became more thoughtful.

One obvious point is that Yamato no longer tells Lu Li about the rebellion, and has no objection to Lu Li helping Kaido with his plans.

Because Yamato has her own thinking ability and knows that this is a better way to make the people of Wano Country live. Moreover, after she learned about her father's ideal, she was also shocked. She didn't expect that her father had such a great dream.

So she has been working diligently as a general recently and governing the Country of Wano well, thinking that one day when this place becomes a peaceful and happy country, she will go on adventures at sea with Brother Lu, which will definitely be fun and reassuring.

Lu Li stood on the balcony of the General's Mansion, overlooking the scenery of the Flower City, looking at the people working in the distance, and the factories standing in rows, "When this country becomes truly prosperous, I will definitely come back and take you out to sea."

Yamato also looked into the distance with Lu Li's gaze, and after a moment he turned to look at Lu Li and smiled, "Then it's a deal, if you regret it again this time, I will use the Thunder Bagua to hammer you into the ground!"

Lu Li also laughed when he heard this, "Okay, it's settled."

In the following time, Lu Li began to hand over work to Yamato. He also called Mr. Kang Jia and took out his strategy book to explain it one by one.

During the lecture, she wanted to fall asleep many times, but Lu Li woke her up every time and told her seriously to study hard.

After all, there is a high possibility that he will not come back after he leaves this time. If Yamato continues to act like a fool, then this country will be doomed.

Yamato himself certainly has no bad intentions, but any country's power structure will breed corruption over time. If Yamato cannot manage it well, the effectiveness of his plan to enrich Wano Country will be greatly reduced.

Fortunately, there is Mr. Kangjia, a smart and reliable man. Now he has witnessed the development of Wano Country and the increasingly happy smiles of the people. He has gradually let go of his loyalty to the Kozuki family.

Although he felt guilty and blamed himself, he felt that what he should really be loyal to was not the bloodline of the Kozuki family, but the people of Wano Country who trusted him.

Therefore, after everything was on track, Lu Li did not think that people like the Kang family would destroy themselves for the Kozuki family and ruin the hard-earned happiness of the people of Wano Country.

After a long conversation all night, Lu Li rubbed his sore brows and looked at Kang Jia and Yamato solemnly, "Wano Country is in your hands now."

Yamato felt the strong trust and expectations from Lu Li, but for some reason, he also felt an inexplicable sadness.

She didn't know where the sadness came from, but she nodded firmly, "Brother Lu, don't worry."
