Pirates: Vice Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Chapter 164: The Words of Harmony and Dao 1—Na Ling!

"Senior Hanyu, what is going on?" Kuina looked at Shimotsuki Hanyu with confusion on her face and asked anxiously.

Although she was not clear about the specific situation, looking at the abnormality of Wado Ichimonji at this time, she felt that Shimotsuki Hanyu should know the reason.

However, Shimotsuki Hanyu did not respond to Kuina, he just stretched out his hand that was as dry as a dead tree.

Kuina did not suspect anything and handed the Wado Ichimonji to Shimotsuki Hanyu.

Shimotsuki Hanyu gently stroked the scabbard, a look of reminiscence on his face.

“This Wado Ichimonji was forged by your grandfather in Wano Country.

As soon as it came out, it was a large and sharp knife of the twenty-first grade, and it could be said to be a peerless good knife.

But, this is not its limit, because it still lacks the last step. Your grandfather left Wano Country just for this last step. "Shimotsuki Hanyu's words exploded in everyone's ears like thunder.

Even Jellal was stunned. He had never thought that Shimotsuki Kosaburo would leave Wano Country with his clan members just for a sword!

You know, today's Wado Ichimonji is already a great sword of the twenty-one gong level. If it goes one step further, wouldn't it become an unrivaled great sword of the twelve gong level?

Kuina seemed to understand her grandfather's mood back then, and forged a supreme large sword with her own hands. For a swordsmith, this was undoubtedly the highest honor.

For this honor, no matter what the price, it is worth it!

For a moment, the whole audience was silent, and everyone was silently waiting for Shimotsuki Hanyu to continue his story.

Obviously, it was Koshiro who brought Kuina back this time, which means that the last step can be completed in Wano Country.

But Shimotsuki Kosaburo chose to leave that year, and there must be a reason behind it that they don't know.

Sure enough, as everyone expected, Shimotsuki Hanyu slowly explained the reason why Shimotsuki Kosaburo left.

In Wano Country, the Shimotsuki family and the Kozuki family are recognized as the two major sword-making families, and the two are equally matched.

In the nearly thousand years of history of Wano Country, the two major sword-making families have been competing for the throne of the strongest sword-making family.

However, the Shimotsuki family is always half a step weaker than the Kozuki family.

Shimotsuki Kozaburo appeared out of nowhere like a shining star. He was the most gifted swordsmith in the history of the Shimotsuki family.

He spent his entire life just to forge a demon sword that could surpass the Kozuki family's Kitetsu series.

In the end, this knife was actually born in his hands, and this knife is the now famous Wado Ichimonji!

However, in order to surpass the first generation of Kitetsu of the Kozuki family, there is one last gap that needs to be crossed.

Wado Ichimonji is a rare spiritual treasure, its light shines brightly among the forest of swords.

When Guina was in Zou, she had already realized its magic.

This big sword can absorb the essence of moonlight. As long as it absorbs enough moon essence, it can complete the final crucial step - absorbing spirits!

Every magic sword, especially the twelfth-level large sword, seems to be a living and dynamic being.

As long as Wado Ichimonji can successfully cross this last step, it will be able to transform and sublimate into a supreme great sword of the twelfth level!

Originally, this last step could be achieved in Wano Country, because the Shimotsuki family's treasure, the Crescent Moon, possesses magical powers that can help Wadō Ichimonji complete the spirit gathering in the shortest time possible.

However, the patriarch of the Shimotsuki family at that time strongly opposed it.

The crescent moon is the symbol of the Frost Moon family. If they make it disappear in order to forge a sword, how will they face their ancestors?

Therefore, in order to allow Wado Ichimonji to complete the spiritual absorption as soon as possible, Kosaburo resolutely chose to go to sea to find a method that could allow Wado Ichimonji to complete the spiritual absorption in a short period of time.

However, until Kozaburo passed away, this last crucial step was not completed.

After Shimotsuki Hanyu finished his story, the members of the Nine Snake Pirates finally understood why Koshiro wanted Kuina to return to Wano Country.

In today's Wano Country, due to Kaido's powerful invasion and the decline of the Kozuki family, except for the Kurozumi family, all other families in Wano Country have been almost wiped out by Kurozumi Orochi.

This includes the Shimotsuki family.

In today's Shimotsuki family, apart from Kozaburo's branch, where else can we find the successor?

Therefore, the Crescent Moon of the Shimotsuki family finally fell into the hands of Kozaburo's lineage, helping Wado Ichimonji to complete the last step - gathering the spirit!

Seeing that everyone understood, Shimotsuki Hanyu said no more, but took the Wado Ichimonji in his hand, leaped forward, and placed it on the crescent moon.

Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, Wado Ichimonji began to absorb the essence of the moon from the crescent moon as quickly as the wind.

"This process will take about three days. I will guard here during these three days until Wado Ichimonji completes the absorption of the spirit. You can come back in three days. You can leave now." After Shimotsuki Hanyu finished speaking, he turned his back to everyone.

Obviously, he was ordering us to leave.

Jellal and the Empress, considering their friendship with Kuina, ignored his rudeness and walked out of the underground palace.

After leaving the underground palace, everyone felt a little dazed.

That is the supreme sword of the Twelve Workers!

There are only five twelfth-level supreme swords on the market now.

In the hands of the Five Elder Stars of the World Government are the first generation of Kitetsu, Whitebeard Newgate's Murakumo Kirito, Pirate King Roger's Ace, Red Hair Shanks's Griffin, Jorako Mihawk's Black Sword, and Night.

Now, they are about to witness the birth of a new supreme sword!

..........

On the ghost island, Jhin and Quinn returned in a mess, wrapped in bandages.

Now the Beasts Pirates have completely lost face. If they had brought those capable cadres with them, they would have been able to defeat the cadres of the Nine Snakes Pirates, and would not have ended up like this, and lost face in front of the hateful Kurozumi Orochi.

"Boss Kaido, we..." Before Jin could finish his words, he was interrupted by a burst of crying.

"Wow, wow, wow... Yamato is about to leave Wano Country, I'm so sad..." Kaido burst into tears and started drinking.

Jin and Quinn looked at each other, suspecting that they had heard it wrong. Yamato was clearly imprisoned on Onigashima, so how could he leave Wano Country?

"I have decided to let the Nine Snakes Pirates take Yamato away, and let her come back to take over my job in the future!" Kaido wiped his tears and continued.

"Son, Daddy can't bear to see you leave!"

"woo woo woo woo……"

Thinking of Yamato's imminent departure, Kaido burst into tears again.

"what?"

"Boss Kaido, how could you agree to let the Nine Snakes Pirates take Master Yamato away!"

Jhin and Quinn were stunned.

They never expected that Kaido would actually let Yamato and the Nine Snakes Pirate Group leave.
