Chapter 495 Tyrant

Wonokuni
Guri
On the market street.
"Good opportunity~! Watch me cut it in two! Ruyi Divine Sword!!"
"Die!"
Several children were playing together, holding wooden sticks and playing a warrior game on the street.
"Pah pah pah~!"
"Look at me! Everyone, look at me! I am the strongest swordsman in Wano Country!!"
"Hahaha! It's so similar. Your imitation is so similar!"
One boy made a funny cross-eyed expression, raised his hands above his head and clapped, while doing a strange dance, which made the others laugh.
...
"Ah??"
The cross-eyed little boy suddenly stopped his magical dance, his eyes returned to their original positions, and his gaze regained focus.
"Hey! Everyone! Look over there!!"
"what happened?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction the boy pointed.
See you soon
Six divine horses were pulling a tall and imposing carriage slowly towards this side.
"Wow!! What a gorgeous carriage~!!"
"Wow! What a grand sight! Whose motorcade is this?"
"He must be a high-ranking official, perhaps a famous figure from some other place!"
The playful children stood there blankly, standing on tiptoe and gazing curiously at the shiny carriage in the distance and the large group of people guarding the carriage, their eyes full of envy.
"It's so~so majestic!"
A real man should live like this!!
Several ambitious little boys were deeply inspired and could not help but clench their fists, secretly vowing in their hearts that they would be as impressive as others when they grow up.
...
"Click! Click! Click!"
The convoy slowly walked into the town, and the sound of horses' hooves hitting the bluestone road made a crisp and rhythmic sound.
"That, that, that is?!!"
"Hey, hey, hey! This must be fake! What's going on? Why is that adult here?!"
"Oh no, it's the general! It's General Orochi!!"
When the civilians on the road saw that the carriage coming was the general of Wano Country, their faces suddenly changed.
“Hmph! Hmph!”
Six black horses without a single stray hair held their heads high and chests puffed out, snorting proudly, their proud eyes filled with disdain for mortals, somewhat suggesting that the horses were taking advantage of the humans.
"Hey! What are you still standing there for? Run!"
"Right, right, right! Everyone, run! If you run a step late, you will be caught and sent to a black factory to do hard labor! !"
Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, waking up the dazed civilians who were watching. Suddenly, the road was in chaos and the crowd began to flee in panic.
"Ah! My clogs, someone stepped on them and broke the laces!"
A man was limping back with one bare foot, holding a wooden slipper with a broken strap in his hand, cursing.
"Ah! My stuff! Damn it, don't take advantage of the opportunity to snatch it!"
The vegetable stall owner had no time to pack up. He wanted to run away but was reluctant to do so. He was so anxious that he kept jumping up and down.
"Ah!! Child! My child!!"
After the smoke and dust settled, the streets became deserted.
"..."
“Gululu~Gululu~!”
The sound of wooden wheels rolling on the road came from far away.
A burly man with thick eyebrows, a decent and resolute face came to the car window and respectfully reported to the figure inside through the bamboo curtain.
"My Lord! We have reached Jiuli!"
“Ha~~~ Are we finally here?”
Inside the carriage, Captain Gel stretched and yawned before speaking.
"This lousy car makes my butt hurt!"
"I am extremely sorry. I did not drive the carriage well!"
"There's no need to blame you for this. By the way, this cart won't be used in the future anyway. When you get back, use these horses to plow the fields. They can't even pull a cart well."
Gel said casually.
"Hmph~!"
The six majestic horses, as if they could understand human speech, snorted in dissatisfaction.
Gel waved his hand and transformed into a black charcoal snake before using the folding fan in his hand to lift the bamboo curtain of the car window.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what's going on?? After all, I am the general of Wano Country and the country's top leader. I finally went to the countryside to get to know the people. Look at the attitude of the people. It's obvious that they don't welcome me?"
Looking at the civilians outside who were acting as if they had seen a ghost when they saw his carriage, "General Dashe" frowned and asked with great dissatisfaction.
"Please calm down, sir. No, they just..."
A drop of sweat oozed out of the sturdy man's forehead and he didn't know how to explain it.
He thought to himself, isn't this deliberately making things difficult for you? You turned into the appearance of Kurozumi Orochi, and now you're riding in the general's carriage. The former general of Wano Country is not a good guy who is deeply loved by the people. It's normal for the common people to avoid him. Don't you have any idea?
Oops!
Could it be that because I just disturbed his sleep, he wanted to find a random excuse to kill me?
Damn it, it must be so!
How terrifying! ! What a moody and cruel monarch! Even more terrifying than the impotent and furious Kurozumi Orochi!
The strong man thought more and more that something was wrong, and before he knew it, he was sweating profusely.
Uh? No, they don't welcome that bastard Kurozumi Orochi. It has nothing to do with me who is loved by everyone.
Just as the sturdy man was thinking about it, Captain Gill, who had figured out the whole thing, relaxed his brows and started laughing happily again.
"Your Excellency, we have informed the lord of Kuri, Kozuki Oden, of this tour in advance. The people must have known that you were coming today, and they avoided the way to make way for you in order to avoid disturbing your carriage. They also wanted to see the general's demeanor, so they all hid in the dark and observed."
Fortunately, Gel gave enough time to answer, and the strong man finally came up with a reasonable reason after thinking for a long time.
In order not to give Captain Gul a chance to cause trouble, the rough man who originally liked to be straightforward was forced to become the person he once hated the most.
"Oh?"
Gel raised his head with some surprise, looked at the sturdy man's honest appearance, and thought to himself, you are a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but I didn't expect you to be a flatterer.
"what's your name?"
"Your Excellency, my name is Feng Ren, a former member of the Imperial Court, and currently the Imperial Coachman!!"
Feng Ren clasped his hands together and lowered his head and said.
"Wind Blade, right?"
"Yes! I'm here!"
"I killed your general and former leader. As an eyewitness, what do you think of what happened? Tell me about it. About 800 words."
Ger asked with a smile on his face and narrowed his eyes.
"Ah this? I am ignorant! No, I dare not make any comments!"
Feng Ren didn't expect that the first question he was asked would be fatal. He was so scared that he immediately knelt down before talking.
Several former members of the Oniwabanshu who were guarding the carriage also turned their heads and cast sympathetic glances at Feng Ren who was being questioned.
It feels like being in class and the teacher asks a question that no one can answer. When you are worried that your name will be called, the teacher has already called your seatmate's name. You are glad that your name was not called, but you are also afraid that the teacher will ask your seatmate to help you answer the question.
