Chapter 214
Chapter 214
On the eastern street of Flower Capital, at the home of ‘Flower’ Baogoro.
Gangster bosses from various villages gathered here, and everyone’s face was full of sorrow.
“Boss Baogoro, many of our brothers are about to commit seppuku, we must save them!”
The big brother of the Usagi underworld in Wano Country, known as ‘Blood Letter’ Daisho, looked anxiously at the gloomy-looking ‘Flower’ Baogoro who was smoking a pipe in front of him.
“Huh~~ Let me be quiet for a while.”
‘Flower’ Baogoro slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, “Now my people have gone to the execution ground to observe the situation, Tsunagoro, Ya Taiping and Adie, you guys don’t be too anxious.”
It is extremely difficult to stop the execution. Now Kaido is not a pirate in Wano Country, but the Protector of the Country who was personally appointed by Kurozumi Orochi.
The assassination of the Protector of the Country by the samurai is a felony equivalent to betrayal of the country, and there is no possibility of overturning the case.
In addition to jailbreak, Hana’ Leopard Goro really couldn’t think of any other way.
But doing so would definitely play into the enemy’s hands.
This public execution is likely to be a trap to lure them in!
“I’ll go and discuss with the other daimyos to see if I can think of any solution... Remember, don’t act rashly!”
......
On the morning of the third day, the streets of Flower Capital were crowded with people, and the crowds were like streams, gathering towards the Shogun’s Mansion from all directions.
Some people were coldly talking to each other, some were in high spirits, and some secretly hid their weapons and prepared for jailbreak.
Publicly executing hundreds of samurai, such a bloody punishment is rare in the history of the entire Wano Country!
Everyone wants to know how this incident will end.
Outside the Shogun’s Mansion.
Under the instruction of Kurozumi Orochi, a simple high platform was built overnight.
Hundreds of samurai who were ordered to commit seppuku were all dressed in white kimonos, kneeling neatly on the platform.
In front of them was a short sword, and behind each of them stood a kaishakunin holding a long sword.
Kurozumi Orochi sat on the rooftop of the Shogun's mansion, looking at the kneeling samurai in front of him, with a cheerful and sinister laugh.
"Guhehe, that's how it should be. Samurai who don't obey me are not qualified to stay in Wano Country!"
Kurozumi Orochi had always sent the rebellious samurai he had captured to work in the quarry, but now it seems that Kaido's simple and crude method is not without merit.
Below the execution platform, several groups of people wearing bamboo hats gradually gathered together.
"I didn't expect the execution to be so soon. We don't have time to rescue them at all!"
"We must save them! If not, let's rescue them!"
No matter what the cause of the incident is, many of these samurai are "righteous men" who resist the tyranny of Kurozumi Orochi. It's always right to save them!
Most of the samurai who assassinated Kaido are underground forces in the Flower Capital, but there are also many lone samurai among them.
These lone samurai are basically subordinates of the previous shogun Kozuki Sukiyaki. Because they were unwilling to surrender to Orochi, they took the initiative to give up their positions and became civilians.
And the personnel composition of these people who planned to make a scene at the execution ground is actually similar to that of the samurai who assassinated Kaido, but under the instigation of some "people with ulterior motives", there are many more wandering ninjas, bandits, and retainers of some daimyos from various villages in the team.
"As soon as the execution order is announced, we will go to rescue people. It's not easy to kill Kurozumi Orochi in the heavily guarded Shogun's Mansion, but I heard that Kaido will come to the execution ground in person. We can take advantage of the chaos to kidnap him. As long as he is in our hands, the lives of these brothers should be saved!"
"This is a good plan. Let's do it this way... By the way, after these brothers are rescued, our troops on the field may be able to rush into the Shogun's Mansion. Then we can just go all out and get rid of Kurozumi Orochi!"
"I think it's okay, let's do it!"
"Okay!"
As the sun gradually climbed above everyone's heads, the official execution time was getting closer and closer.
A moment before noon, Kaido also officially arrived at the scene.
"Guhoho, Kaido, you're finally here. I thought you would miss the execution!"
"Stop talking nonsense, Orochi. Since the time is almost up, let's execute him!"
"Okay!"
At the signal from Kurozumi Orochi, the chief executioner began to read out the evidence of each samurai's crime.
"The criminal...assassinated the King! Punished by seppuku! Execution!"
As the chief executioner finished speaking, the samurai who were kneeling on the ground began to tremble and pick up the short blades in front of them under the coercion of the kaishakunin.
Some of them gave themselves a sharp knife, and alsoSome people held the hilt of the knife and hesitated to do it.
Although seppuku is always said to be the honor of a samurai, not everyone can face it calmly when this honor comes to themselves.
Just as the kaishakunin was about to help those wimps on their way, a voice rang out from under the execution platform.
"Wait a minute!"
The man had phoenix eyes and thick eyebrows, and had long and wild black hair that gathered into a big bowl shape on top of his head.
He was wearing an orange kimono, with huge purple and white shimenawa tied around his shoulders and waist.
"This is... His Highness Oden! He's back?!"
Amid the exclamations of the crowd, 'Kozuki Oden' quickly rushed into the execution ground.
At the same time, the execution ground guards and the Oniwabanshu quickly surrounded him.
"No matter who you are, it is a serious crime to rush into the execution ground!"
'Kozuki Oden' remained calm, looking at Kaido sitting in front of him and Kurozumi Orochi on the rooftop of the Shogun's Mansion, and shouted in a deep voice: "I have something to say to you!"
"General, Master Ming Wang, this..."
"Let him come over!"
As 'Kozuki Oden' stepped onto the execution platform step by step, the crowd of onlookers suddenly burst into fierce cheers.
At this moment, Kurozumi Orochi, who was sitting on the Shogun's Mansion, felt like he was falling into an ice cellar.
Even though he knew that 'Kozuki Oden' was a fake, the people's reaction to Kozuki Oden was far beyond his expectations.
The louder the cheers around him, the more fearful Kurozumi Orochi felt.
Kozuki Oden is out to sea with his retainers at the moment, he is not dead!
Maybe when Kozuki Oden really comes back, he will take away his throne as general in an instant...
"These fools!"
"I am the general, I am!!!"
"He must be killed, Kozuki Oden must be killed!"
Just as Kurozumi Orochi was doing complicated inner activities, in the spotlight, 'Kozuki Oden' walked in front of Kaido.
Then, he knelt down without any hesitation, and kowtowed to Kaido with a thud.
"General Kurozumi, Lord Ming Wang, please stop this execution!"
Suddenly, the cheers stopped, and the whole audience was silent.
