Chapter 468
After a while, everyone came to a place with an unpleasant smell, and saw Xiaoyu’s rather simple wooden house.
“Please wait a moment, the food will be ready soon!” Xiaoyu’s voice came into the room from outside the door, except for the heartless Luffy who was still looking forward to it, everyone else had a hint of doubt on their expressions.
Although Xiaoyu insisted on entertaining everyone in order to repay Sanji for saving his life, it is difficult to convince them that there is enough food just by looking at the conditions here.
Bai Ye signaled to everyone to be safe and not to be impatient, no matter what, you can’t ignore a girl’s mood.
Soon, a few people had a bad premonition experience, and Xiaoyu’s so-called food was just two bowls of rice and a few pitiful side dishes.
Even because there are not so many bowls and chopsticks at home, Xiaoyu can only use some woven hat materials instead, so that he can barely match the twelve members of the straw hat group.
Looking at the meal in front of them, which was barely a mouthful, everyone was silent.
Xiaoyu also knew how bad her reception was, but she just stood silently on the side with her head lowered, clutching her kimono with both hands, at a loss.
At this moment, Luffy’s voice sounded: “I’m starting!”
After finishing speaking, he picked up the bowl and chopsticks and ate.
Without complaining or ridiculing, Luffy, as usual, took the food in front of him seriously, even though it was tasteless and pitifully small.
After just one bite, Lu Fei put down the bowl and chopsticks, and smiled at Xiao Yu: “Hey, it’s delicious, thank you for the hospitality.”
Xiaoyu raised her head, her slightly red eyes flickered, as if tears were gushing out.
Need I say anything else? It is no longer needed.
“I’m gonna start now.”
Bai Ye also picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and started to eat seriously, as did the others.
After a while.
“It’s delicious, thanks for the hospitality.”
Everyone’s voices sounded in the room together.
Immediately afterwards, there was the voice of the little girl laughing through tears:
“Poor hospitality!”
Chapter 581 The Man Wearing the Tengu Mask
After Xiaoyu left with the excuse of [relieve a hand], Luffy lay down with regret on his face: “Huh~ It’s not enough to eat at all.”
“I see you enjoyed your meal just now, didn’t you?” Bai Ye teased.
“Hey, Xiaoyu made that for us specially.” Luffy replied with a smile, “She is really a good person. By the way, Sanji…”
“Um?”
“In return, let’s also prepare a rich dinner for Xiaoyu! I think she didn’t eat just now, she must be very hungry.” Lu Fei said loudly.
Sanji stood up as expected: “I knew you would say that, so I’ll go get ready first.”
“Yeah, I want to eat a lot of meat!” Luffy’s eyes lit up: “And octopus balls!”
“You prepared this for yourself!!” Usopp couldn’t help complaining.
Everyone in the room couldn’t help laughing. Although their captain seemed clueless, he was unexpectedly careful at this time.
Not only did he not embarrass Xiaoyu, he even thought of a way to make Xiaoyu accept the gift from himself and others with peace of mind.
At this moment, the corners of Bai Ye’s raised mouth stopped suddenly. He turned his head to look at the door, and it seemed that someone he didn’t like had arrived.
With a bang, the door was kicked open from the outside.
The person who came was dressed in imitation of a tengu, with a pair of wings on his back and a tengu mask on his face.
Holding a treasured sword in his hand, he pointed at the crowd aggressively, and shouted loudly: “Who are you guys?!”
To his surprise, everyone in the room looked at him calmly as if they had known about his arrival for a long time.
Of course, it cannot be said that it is everyone.
Luffy opened his mouth wide, looked at the most characteristic long nose on the Tengu mask on the face of the visitor and exclaimed: “Usopp?! Really…”
“I’m right next to you! Idiot!” Usopp slashed Luffy’s head with a skillful hand knife.
“Huh? This knife…” Sauron’s eyes narrowed, and he saw the weapon in the Tengu man’s hand at a glance.
Not only is it a precious sword that is enough to rank as a big sword, but Zoro can also feel a familiar atmosphere in the blade.
He stroked his saber Sandai Onitsu, and had a vague guess in his heart.
The Tengu man didn’t pay attention to Luffy’s nonsense and Zoro’s eyes, and saw the dishes and chopsticks that everyone was too late to clean up at a glance.
“Could it be…have you eaten my rice?” He asked.
“Well, Xiaoyu specially entertained us.” Luffy replied familiarly.
“Bastards!!” The Tengu man was furious instantly, he raised his knife and was about to slash at Lu Fei: “Why did Xiao Yu cook for you, do you know that child hasn’t eaten for a few days?”.
At this moment, a figure appeared in front of the man.
The speed was so fast that the Tengu man had no time to react, and even had the feeling that he was right in front of his eyes.
The golden-glowing fingers of the figure lightly pointed out, and they resisted the unstoppable blade.
There was a small wave of air, and the Taoist robe of the figure kept agitating.
The Tengu man saw a face, obviously expressionless, but with a chill on his face.
“Speak if you have something to say.” Bai Ye spit out a sentence, stretched out his palm and directly snatched his knife and scabbard, and threw it directly to Sauron behind him.
The situation in the room froze instantly.
The Tengu man didn’t know Bai Ye’s identity, but the fleeting sense of oppression just now made him feel chills all over his body.
That is the deterrence caused by the same absolute strength as Kaido.
Even though it was his own home, the Tengu man had no sense of security.
He even wondered if the other party was a cadre of the Hundred Beasts Pirates.
Has your identity been exposed?
Zoro took the sword but didn’t check it immediately. Like the rest of the Straw Hats, he looked suspiciously at Bai Ye who made a sudden attack.
Logically speaking, according to Bai Ye’s lazy personality and his personality of making decisions before acting, it is impossible to make such impulsive actions.
Their strength has already been able to sense the knife of the Tengu man, and there is not much killing intent, more anger and questioning.
Referring to his previous words, it was obvious that he had misunderstood something.
So Bai Ye made a sudden attack, giving them the feeling…it seemed to be targeting the man wearing the tengu mask…
Could it be that the other party is a member of the Hundred Beasts Pirates? But that doesn’t match what I said before.
Now Bai Ye has no intention of continuing to fight… What the **** is this guy doing?
Even Robin, who is good at observing, is a little baffled.
As for Luffy, he obviously didn’t have that much thought, and even had a sense of déjà vu from watching a movie.
In his opinion, everything Bai Ye does has its own reason, why think so much.
“We are pirates who just arrived in Wano country today. We met Xiaoyu by coincidence, and she also entertained us for this meal.”
After taking away the knife, Bai Ye Shi calmly sat down,
Looking at the Tengu man, he said, “It’s your turn.”
He sensed other people’s doubts, but he was not prepared to explain anything, because the explanation was not clear at all.
Do you tell them that you are very upset with this guy because you have read the original work?
…
After a while, the Tengu man also seemed to find that he had no other choice, so he could only speak:
“Old man Tiangou Mountain Feiche is Xiaoyu’s master.”
“Uncle Tengu, what did you say just now that Xiaoyu hasn’t eaten for a few days?” Nami asked directly. Although she could guess that Xiaoyu’s family life was difficult, she was a little surprised that she hadn’t eaten for a few days.
“You are outsiders, but you should also know some things about Wano Country.”
Tiangoushan Feiche said: “This used to be an administrative village ruled by the Guangyue family, and it is famous for producing bamboo hats…”
When talking about the Guangyue family, Tiangushan Feiche’s voice was obviously a little unnatural.
“But after Orochi came to power, the entire Jiuli became an abandoned existence… In short, Xiaoyu weaves bamboo hats day and night every day, and even if she sells them all, she may not be able to support herself. What she eats on weekdays is Tares…”
Tiangushan Feiche’s voice became sad: “But I want her to at least be able to eat rice on her birthday and the first month…”
“Today is Xiaoyu’s seventh birthday. For today, we specially saved money for several days. I asked her to buy the rice in the town…”
“Why…why was it eaten by you?!”
At this time, Tiangushan Feiche, who remembered the sad things, couldn’t care less about Bai Ye’s sense of oppression, and asked everyone angrily again.
“Master, stop quickly!!”
The door was pushed open, and Xiaoyu staggered into the room, crying loudly: “Please forgive me for cooking the rice without authorization, but they are my saviors.”
“Please! Don’t let me be ashamed of this.”
Even a child has his own dignity…
The tearful Xiaoyu wanted to kneel on the ground and kowtow to her master, but Bai Ye came to her side to support her and shook her head.
He didn’t think Xiaoyu should kneel…
Xiaoyu was taken aback for a moment, but before she had time to think about it, she turned her head and shouted to her master, “I will work harder to weave the bamboo hat, please forgive me, let me repay my benefactors well!”
Tiangou Shan Feiche stood there dumbfounded, as if he didn’t know what to say.
Chapter 582 The Heaven-Defying Kozuki Sukiyaki, Sauron’s Background Revealed
Tiangou Mountain Feiche, on the surface, is Xiaoyu’s master who lives in Jiuli.
Behind the scenes, his status is frighteningly high.
He is the father of Kozuki Oden, the former ruler of Wano Country, the head of the Kozuki family – Kozuki Sukiyaki.
If Bai Ye were to describe this person, he could only use two words – against the sky!
Not to mention his background and the **** grievances between the Kozuki family and the Heitan family, let’s just say that 27 years ago, Heitan Orochi usurped the throne.
At that time, Orochi and others used the ability to imitate the fruit to continue to pretend to be close to Kozuki Sukiyaki, and successfully put him under house arrest. Afterwards, he pretended to make a will that “Orochi will temporarily manage Wano Country on behalf of Oden”.
So far in the story, there is actually no big problem.
It’s crazy to say that he doesn’t know people.
The key is that afterwards, after Kaido and Orochi designed to frame Oden to death, Kozuki Sukiyaki escaped by chance.
Yes, Kozuki Sukiyaki escaped a long time ago.
So what did the old guy do?
Nothing to do… yes! Nothing! !
After Oden died and Kurotan Orochi came to power, he almost killed all the retainers of the Kozuki family.
Wanton suppression of Jiulizhong, all the people who have always been loyal to the Guangyue clan.
The old guy didn’t even have a shot in the dark.
Damn, the famous Shuangyue Kang family who once served the Guangyue clan is so miserable, and in the end they don’t hesitate to die to help the Red Sheath Nine Heroes.
This guy just huddled in Jiuli and did nothing, hiding his name for more than ten years.
There is another thing worth mentioning. Heitan Orochi once exterminated all the warriors who believed in the Kozuki family and were eager to overthrow the tyranny of the Heitan family, leaving no room for survival.
There is a group of warriors who are quite bloody. For the sake of the Kozuki clan, they did not hesitate to attack the Heitan family and the Hundred Beasts Pirates.
Their knife mounds could even spread over a mountain, but even so, they never thought of giving up the struggle. Q
But Kozuki Sukiyaki stays out of it like an old bastard. Even with the arrival of Momanosuke and Luffy in the original book, this old guy still hides his identity.
It’s okay if it’s for some kind of plan, but from the beginning to the end, apart from sending out a few knives and talking to Zoro about Shimoyue Kozaburo
