Chapter 285, Section Three: The man who has fallen into the abyss can only watch as his beloved perishes.
"Prepare to die, Kurozumi Orochi!!"
"You wreaked havoc in the Flower Capital, colluding with foreign enemies; you deserve to die a hundred times over!"
Under the cover of Kanjuro's "elite" samurai, the three daimyo went through some hardships but still managed to reach the third floor of the attic where Kurozumi Orochi was located.
Kurozumi Orochi sat upright at the far end of the room, holding a wine glass in his hand.
"Oh, it's you three esteemed lords. Would you like to have a drink?"
Rain Moon Tempura stepped forward, her right hand gripping the blade tightly, which was placed in the seam of her clothes as she bent her left arm.
As the katana was pulled out, the blood on it was wiped away by the clothing on his left upper arm.
"Kurozumi Orochi, today is your death day."
"Say what you have to say quickly. Three seconds. The three of us will kill you in three seconds."
"Three seconds? Pfft~ Hahahaha————"
Kurozumi Orochi threw down his sake cup and slapped the tatami mat, laughing heartily.
"Hey, don't you three know where you are?"
"This is my stronghold!!"
"Everyone out!!"
Bang bang bang ————
The wooden barrier connecting the nearby rooms was forcefully pushed down, revealing the Oniwabanshu ninja army and samurai squads armed with swords and cannons behind it.
Supported by a geisha whose face was growing paler and who was trembling all over, Kurozumi Orochi, who was feeling a bit dizzy from drinking, slowly got up.
"Do you think I wouldn't know about such a large-scale troop movement?!"
"Wano Country belongs to me, General. I am—"
The clanging sound of a katana being drawn rang out.
Kurozumi Orochi gripped his greatsword, his expression ferocious: "The unparalleled Kurozumi General!!!"
"With the rebels killed and Kaido by our side, victory is assured!"
Fu Lu Shou Mian waved his hand expressionlessly: "Didn't you hear what the general said? Go, kill them."
"Tempura!!"
Kazetsuki Miyuki and Shimotsuki Yasuie stood in front of Amatsuki Tempura, casually unleashing several flying slashes.
"Hand these people over to us; the decapitation plan is in your hands now—"
"Me too!!"
Kanjuro rushed into the room clutching his severed arm, his expression ferocious and terrifying, as if he wanted to devour Orochi.
"I have survived again, Lord Amatsuki. I will stand by your side!"
"Kanjuro----"
Amatsuki Tempura stared blankly at Kanjuro, who was covered in blood and had a broken arm, his vision blurring.
My heart was filled with passion, which erupted like a volcano.
"Very well, if I, Amatsuki Tempura, survive this time, I will certainly share a drink with Lord Kanjuro!"
"Let's go!!"
The sounds of ping-pong balls clashing reached her ears, and Gion stopped playing her shamisen early.
He casually turned on the switch of the special shamisen and took out the gold pipe from it.
"What are you guys still standing there for? Do you want to die?"
After tucking her sword into the belt at her waist, Gion began directing the dancing geishas to retreat.
"Where's Kaido?"
Watching Gion retreat with a group of geishas, Fukurokuju pointed behind him.
"Mr. Kaido is drunk. He told me to wake him up when the real show begins."
The real show?
Gion frowned, looking at the samurai daimyo locked in combat: "Is Bazel coming?"
Fu Lu Shou lowered his voice: "We're here. Didn't you notice the rain outside has stopped?"
Only then did Gion realize something was wrong and drew back the curtains to look outside.
A peculiar sight appeared.
Except for the general's pavilion, it was pouring rain everywhere, which even drowned out the shouts of battle and the flames that were burning.
Peeking out, Gion looked curiously at the sky.
Boom boom boom————
A fleeting flash of lightning revealed a massive creature lurking behind the dark clouds.
Eight heads waved, and sixteen red eyes appeared faintly.
When the lightning subsided, the scene they had just witnessed also disappeared.
Gion rubbed her eyes, staring at the sky in disbelief.
Blu-ray Blu-ray Blu-ray~~
Snap—
"—Gion, stop looking at me. It's not our turn to make our appearance yet."
Bazel's helpless voice came through the Den Den Mushi.
"If you keep looking, Ah-Shi, who's jealous, will turn around and make me hand in my homework."
Gion blinked, but before she could say anything, a dark figure suddenly appeared behind her and snatched the Den Den Mushi.
"Bazaar!!!"
Kaido grabbed the microphone and roared, "What the hell are you doing?! I've been waiting all night!"
"Why isn't anyone coming to fight me? Waaaaah!"
"Laozi, Laozi————"
"I've already taken a nap, but there's still no enemy worth my time!"
"Waaaaah, you're responsible! Come down here and fight me!"
"What nonsense are you spouting, Kaido? You'll be busy at the grand banquet in a few months. Be careful you don't die there!"
The Den Den Mushi grinned and said, "I just received a message from Teach. That brat from the Whitebeard Pirates somehow got my Den Den Mushi number."
Tell me that Edward intends to attend this grand banquet.
"In other words, Kaido, this grand banquet will be an unprecedentedly amazing event!"
"The World Government and the Knights of God will definitely not let this opportunity pass. Prepare for a fight to the death, you idiot captain!"
Kaido's crying expression froze, and his expression returned to normal.
"Newgate is going too, so Lingling probably won't let it go either."
"I understand, but Bazel."
"If you dared to try anything funny at that banquet, I'd make sure you tasted the spiked club!"
Without waiting for Bazel's reply, Kaido tossed the Den Den Mushi back to Gion.
"This boring drama, let me speed it up for them."
Gion shook her head and picked up the microphone: "Bazel, what do we need to do next?"
"You don't need to do anything; the most natural acting is simply knowing the unknown."
The Den Den Mushi said softly, "We, the Beasts Pirates, are a pirate crew of integrity. Since we promised to help Kurozumi Orochi secure the position of Shogun, we cannot go back on our word."
"As for how long he can hold that position—"
"Then that's none of our business. After all, I never agreed to let him sit there indefinitely in the first place."
"I understand. We'll talk about the rest when we meet."
Snap—
The Den Den Mushi hung up, and Gion turned to look.
The massive Kaido charged into the battlefield like a truck, heading towards the location of Fuugetsu Miyuki and Shimotsuki Yasuie.
Meanwhile, behind the screen, Kurozumi Orochi watched as Amatsuki Tempura charged forward.
His legs buckled and he fell backward.
"Hurry up and do it! This general is in grave danger, you idiot!!"
With the help of Kanjuro and several elite samurai, Amatsuki Tempura successfully reached his target.
"One-Sword Style: Draw Sword Slash!!"
This time, Amatsuki Tempura didn't ramble on like she did during the last assassination attempt. Seeing her target within range, she immediately sheathed her sword and prepared to unleash a slash.
"Don't panic, Lord Orochi, you can trust my barrier technique."
A massive, pale blue barrier suddenly appeared, withstanding Amatsuki Tempura's sword-drawing slash head-on, and only a ripple appeared on the surface of the barrier.
"I'll help you, Lady Amatsuki!!"
Just as Amatsuki Tempura was about to remind Kanjuro, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his back.
Tempura!!!
Not far away, Fuugetsu Miyuki exclaimed, "Kanjuro, you've attacked the wrong person! That's Amatsuki Tempura! She's our ally!"
"I did not kill the wrong person."
"My name is Kurozumi-kanjuro!"
Pulling the blade out of the enemy's body, Kurozumi Kanjuro chose to self-destruct at that moment.
"This is my perfect acting. How about it? Are you impressed by my performance?"
call--!!
Turning around, he unleashed a slash, and looking at Kanjuro, whom he had beheaded with a single blow, Amatsuki Tenfura knelt down on one knee, his left hand clutching his bleeding lower back.
"I never expected to fail here..."
Staring at the frozen "Kanjuro" on the ground, Amatsuki Tempura's eyes widened like a demon's.
"Damn it, damn it!!!"
"Hmph, if I can't get involved myself, how can I possibly gain your trust?"
As Kanjuro's head on the ground uttered those words with a strange laugh, it suddenly turned into a blob of ink and vanished. At the same time, outside the house, the unharmed Kanjuro walked into the house carrying his special Tsuji Shime sword.
"General, I have finished filming."
"Huh? What are you waiting for? The rest are all our own people. Kill the other two villains."
Under Kanjuro's command, the accompanying samurai stepped forward one after another.
One of the thugs rushed to the ground and knelt down at an extremely fast speed.
Amatsuki Tempura barely managed to deflect the attacking enemy in front of him, but was then stabbed in the body by samurai from both sides and behind. "I'm not reconciled!!"
Kanjuro looked at the glaring Amatsuki tempura and covered his face, laughing wildly.
"There's nothing I can do about it if you think that way. I was just infiltrating Lord Oden's side at first, looking for an opportunity for the Kurozumi clan to reclaim Wano Country."
"I never expected that foolish prince would go to sea on his own, rendering all my preparations futile—"
"Fortunately, fate did not disappoint me."
Hehehehe! Hahahaha!
Kanjuro Kurozumi spreads his arms as if to embrace.
"From the moment I received the request from the Allied Forces, I knew that my drama was far from over!"
"After Fuyuki Yuki explained the entire plan, I reported it to the General in detail."
.
"This is all for today's final dance, the Rain Moon Tempura!!"
With dozens of blades piercing his body, the dying Amatsuki Tenfura stared intently at Kanjuro.
The madness on the other person's face was reflected in his pupils.
Resentment, hatred, madness —
"I will not let you get away with this! I will return as a vengeful ghost and curse this place—!?!"
Gion and Ugetsu Tenfuro, who were rushing towards them with quick, light steps, brushed past each other, the tip of their raised Kinpira swords stained with blood.
"It's best not to utter curses. Just die obediently with your resentment, Amatsuki Tempura."
puff--!!
The shadows cast on the wall change at this moment.
A "black fountain" erupted, propelling a round object towards the ceiling.
"As expected of the top courtesan who controls the Flower Capital Corridor."
Kanjuro squinted at Gion, "I didn't expect your swordsmanship to be so strong. Even I admire your acting skills."
"After this operation is over, would you like to grab a drink with me?"
Gion wiped the blood off her knife, stood up straight, and the black spider tattoo on her long legs looked even more eerie in the trembling candlelight.
"Shut up, you toad! I'm not like you. I'm not acting."
"What I am proficient in is the art of geisha; as for swordsmanship, that is something I only learn in my spare time to make a living."
"Thunderous Eight Trigrams!!"
Bang--!!
With a single blow, Kaido sent Fuugetsu Yoshiki flying. He then picked up his spiked club and looked at Shimotsuki Yasuie, who was struggling to hold on.
"Stop resisting, you're all too weak. I don't even want to fight anymore."
"Kanjuro, kill them both!!"
Just then, the giant black snake hiding behind the barrier let out a shrill roar.
"Kill them, they are all sinners!"
"Yes, General."
Having received the order, Kanjuro no longer cared about the alluring courtesan and led his men to rush towards the last person.
"Hehehehe—Waaaaaah!!!"
Seeing Shimotsuki Yasuie die under the siege of samurai, Kurozumi Orochi embraced the sky with his arms outstretched, tears welling in his eyes.
"Serves you right!"
"You bastards deserve to die for disobeying this general!"
"I am the most outstanding general in the history of Wano Country, I am the supreme general who is the only one!"

'
Rumble—
The gloomy sky suddenly cleared up after the last rumble of thunder across the horizon.
"Look!!"
Kurozumi Orochi stared at the dead Shimotsuki Yasuie, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins and a look of madness.
"Even the heavens are celebrating my victory."
"Wano Country is about to usher in a truly wonderful future!!"
"Orochi, our agreement has been fulfilled, right?"
Kaido suddenly looked at the Kurozumi Orochi behind the barrier, a slight smile playing on his lips, his eyes filled with amusement.
"My agreement with you was to help you secure your position as general, and now all the daimyo who opposed you are dead."
"You should admit that I and my pirate crew are people of integrity, right?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Kurozumi Orochi answered, "Of course!"
"Brother Kaido, wait—what are you doing?!"
Seeing Kaido suddenly smash Kanjuro away with his club, Orochi's expression changed slightly.
"Kanjuro is one of us!"
"What are you doing?"
"Hehehe, good question. Now that the first agreement is fulfilled, it's my turn to settle accounts with your charcoal clan!"
"Jiuli's real name is Tianyue, and she is Laozi's brother's woman."
Kaido's smile vanished abruptly.
"I heard you sent men into Jiuli to assassinate her, right?"
Suddenly!
The roof of the three-story building was suddenly ripped open by an external force, and a huge serpentine body encircled the general's mansion.
"Kaido-san, you're really impatient. The third act isn't even over yet."
Under the gaze of the eight heads, the black charcoal serpent fell to the ground. As the effects of the alcohol wore off, the pungent smell of urine could be clearly detected even through the barrier.
"Orochi, I remember saying before that I didn't want Higurashi Kurozumi to use her Devil Fruit power to infiltrate Kuri."
"Not to mention the assassination of my lover, Bazel."
A snake head, much larger than the other seven, protruded into the house from the outside.
The warriors who were still fighting were all trembling and frozen in place.
"A monster!!!"
"It's the Yamata no Orochi monster! Run!!"
As the first samurai led the way and ran outwards, the remaining samurai no longer cared about anything else, dropped their weapons, and began to run wildly outwards.
Among them, only the geisha and ninja remained unchanged, kneeling on one knee.
"Welcome, Lord Bazel!"
Bazel didn't look at the ninjas; as his snake tongue flickered, the killing intent in his eyes intensified.
"Let's settle this score, along with all the old scores."
"The supreme general, my lord."
