OPI Chapter 119: Nations in Flux
🕑 Added 2024-03-13 05:07:18 +0000 UTCWarcury began to talk about the topic of the meeting. "We have already made plans for things in Kabane World. The people below will naturally do it step by step. We just need to wait patiently."
"What we will discuss this time is Imu-sama's decision to turn all the kingdoms of our world into affiliated nations."
Mars looked puzzled. "What's there to talk about? Wasn't it announced to the world through that Stella?"
"That can only be considered as advance notice. The official bulletin has not been published yet." Warcury shook his head and sighed. "Because there are two obstacles standing in the way of this plan."
"Obstacles?" V. Nusjuro snorted coldly. "Is there anything that could prevent Imu-sama's orders from being carried out?"
"Wano Country and Elbaf." Warcury deadpanned the names of the two nations. As soon as these words came out, the Room of the Authority became extremely quiet.
"Once our bulletin is published, it will mean that all kingdoms must fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of being affiliated nations."
"Paying the heavenly tribute, obeying the orders of the World Government, and adopting the current police system and the future unified legal system, etc."
"Do you think these two countries could accept that? If they refuse to comply, what would be the meaning of our bulletin? Imu-sama's order would not be fully implemented!"
Now everyone understood the difficulty of the matter. Because both were problematic kingdoms with an extremely long history and considerable internal strength.
After pondering for a moment, V. Nusjuro proposed. "Let's solve one at a time..."
Ju Peter nodded in agreement. "Let's talk about Wano Country first. It is relatively easier to operate, but no matter what, we need to first Understand the situation in its country."
"Why, hasn’t Cipher Pol sent anyone?" Mars looked at Ju Peter in confusion, for him, the CP was an omnipresent ghost.
Ju Peter smiled bitterly and said: "No, its unique culture, ancient traditional language, and almost national exclusion atmosphere make it almost impossible to infiltrate without the support of the internal higher-ups."
"Then how did the Beast Pirates get in?"
"Judging from Kaido's ability, he should have flown directly and used force to suppress everyone, and he did so while Kozuki Oden was wasting time outside."
"However, this actually proves that there are not many top-level combat forces guarding the country of Wano. This needs to be paid attention to."
Saying that, Ju Peter rubbed his chin in confusion and began to think about it. "It's just that I'm curious. Why hasn't there been any movement since Kozuki Oden returned? Shouldn't he be fighting Kaido? How could he let the latter leave the island at will and come over to join in the fun here?"
Saturn speculated. "Is it possible that Kozuki Oden has been defeated by Kaido, either died in the battle, or was imprisoned?"
"It's possible." Ju Peter found this theory reasonable and smiled. "If so, now that we have captured Kaido, then Wano country does not have any main force defending it."
"I think we could send someone to investigate, without needing to infiltrate, just break in and then report the situation there. Once we confirm our suspicions, then..."
Warcury's eyes flashed fiercely, and he said solemnly: "Conquer this warrior country in one fell swoop!"
"The problem is that even if Cipher Pol detects the emptiness inside Wano Country, who should we send to suppress it? And how can we ensure that the fleet can successfully land on the island?" Mars asked.
V. Nusjuro reflected for a moment. "It's true, in a situation where we are not sure if Kozuki Oden is still alive, we need to send someone with the strongest possible strength to lead the expedition, but..."
The current situation was that even the main forces of the armed forces were a bit limited.
Warcury hesitated for a moment, finally expressing his thoughts. "What if we send a God's Knights?"
"I have an idea..." At that moment, Saturn spoke. "Isn't Kaido imprisoned in Impel Down? Use the ability of Taklama's pet fruit to order him to obey someone else's orders."
"Then this person will take Kaido to Wano Country. Also, we could have Kaido use his power to fly away the fleet. Wouldn't that solve all the problems?"
"I think we could also give information about other worlds to Kaido. For someone obsessed with war and fighting like him, it would be a deadly temptation. Look at Bullet and Crocodile, how happy are they now?" Ju Peter said.
Warcury made the final decision. "In that case, let's leave the matter of Wano Country as it is. I will report it to Imu-sama and see what his opinion is."

Imu put the microphone in his hand on the back of the Den-Den Mushi.
"Wano Country, I remember that at this time, Kozuki Oden has already started dancing, and he will not receive the newspaper of Roger's execution until next year."
"But he just started jumping. The people of Wano are probably just disappointed in him. It's not appropriate to send people to suppress him right now."
"The country of Wano must open its borders, must join the World Government, and must be under almost direct control, so Kurozumi Orochi must be eliminated, but Kozuki Oden cannot be allowed to resume his position as general!"
Imu quickly reviewed the World Government's basic stance towards Wano in his mind.
[Poluporu, Poruporu]
At this moment, the Den-Den Mushi sounded again.
Imu took the receiver. "Saint Nerona, regarding his vehicle, there are some complications at the moment, it is Admiral Garp..."
Hearing what Garp was going to do, Imu was speechless. Why bother? He could have let Stussy use his Less-Less Fruit ability to pick up the ark. But that was typical of Garp.
"Then let him push it."
From his perspective, it was quite nice to see the Navy hero putting so much effort into preparing his vehicle. He felt that it was more interesting than just taking it using a skill.
"Ok."
Imu hung up the receiver and before he could do anything else, Den-Den Mushi rang again.
"Imu-sama." Warcury said in a respectful tone.
"What's happening?" Imu asked indifferently.
"The Giant Guards prepared for their next journey are ready. Would you like to meet them now or wait until the day of departure?"
"Oh?" Imu suddenly became interested. She pondered for a moment and ordered: "Call them after Stussy returns."
"Yes, sir!"
...
Kabane World, Kongoukaku.
"Has the information been confirmed? Is it really that bastard Amatori Biba?" Amatori Okimasa asked, looking seriously at the officials gathered below him, his eyes full of suspicion.
He knew his eldest son's abilities very well. To be honest, he wouldn't dare underestimate him at all. As a father, he even felt afraid.
"It is confirmed. The Communications Department received an emergency report from Iwato Station. In fact, it was the Karikatashuu who brought the Kabane to the Station."
"They also blocked the station, shot all the people and soldiers who tried to escape. Now, that place should be a territory controlled by the Kabane, turned into a paradise of death." Makino Dougen responded.
"What?!"
"They actually shot at humans?!"
"This is too much and must be severely punished!"
The officials and samurai present in the room began to get angry and denounce the action, although they unconsciously ignored the fact that they themselves had killed more than four hundred thousand soldiers ten years ago.
"What's going on with the purchased weapons? Have they been put into storage?" Okimasa calmed down and looked at the Minister of Finance in charge, who respectfully replied: "The twenty thousand steam guns and one hundred large-caliber cannons that we bought abroad have already been stored."
"Then distribute them and start placing the artillery!"
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the Minister of Finance quickly left. At this moment, another lower-ranking official ran from outside, quickly knelt down and reported loudly. "Shogun, a message has just been received from Iwato Station. The current governor, Yomogawa Ayame, reported that Amatori Biba and the Karikatashuu were arrested, but Iwato Station has been completely destroyed."
"They are already on their way to Kongoukaku in the Kokujou and have requested the shogunate to take in the civilians."
Hearing this, everyone in the room was stunned.
"Is this true?"
"They caught that Amatori Biba!"
"Who is this Yomogawa Ayame? Why does his name sound like a woman's?"
Although these high-ranking samurai and high officials did not want to admit it, they really did not dare to fight the Karikatashuu head-on.
The title of Liberator is not something that is invented, it was earned from the pile of Kabane corpses they left behind!
The most shocked among these people was Makino Dougen. In his impression, his niece was still a child, and her age seemed to be only seventeen, right?
"If so, let them come. I also want to see who Yomogawa Ayame is and how she can..."
Okimasa stopped talking. He was now in a very complicated mood, which was very strange. Logically speaking, it was a good thing that Biba was arrested.
But why didn't he feel happy at all?
