Pirate: Reincarnated as a Black Charcoal Orochi

Heitan Chanmaru, who always just sat quietly behind others and played the pipa, did not stop playing the pipa strings even when he heard his sister's questions.

The thin old man just closed his eyes tightly as usual, and responded with a low, gentle but powerful voice that was totally inconsistent with his appearance between playing:

"It doesn't matter, even though I am as old as a candle in the wind, I have reached the age where I call myself an old man.

But if it's just a period of time until His Highness Orochi returns to the country before the thief, it shouldn't be a serious problem.

Please don't worry too much, sister. Even though there are thousands of martial arts in the world, I have never seen anyone who can break through the old barrier of magic. "

"Ahem, hehehe, you're talking about Cicada Wan, it's my sister who's asking too much."

This old woman who once risked everything for the rest of her life and swore to avenge the Hei Tan family members who died in vain.

Recently, there is no longer any need to dress up like the legendary youkai of Wano: the Ugly Princess of Time, nor is she wearing the extremely luxurious twelve-piece dress that symbolizes the highest ranking shrine maiden: Saio.

He simply wore a dark-colored kimono that was prepared by a maid to make it appear more benevolent. At this time when pirates from the outer sea invaded and tested the power of Wano, he tried his best to use his identity as the elder of the Kuotan family to stabilize people's hearts.

Suppressing the discomfort gushing from everywhere in his decaying body, Hei Tan Mu Chan tried his best to use his cunning laughter in the past to cover up his physical condition, which was at the end of his life and could be said to be on the verge of reaching its limit.

In the historical trajectory of Wahara, Heitan Muchan had not yet seen the only adult male of the Kozuki family at that time: Kozuki Oden die in a frying pan.

Just because of the ridiculous reason of disturbing Kaido's battle, the outcome of taking the first step in the end was different.

In this world line that was changed by the Orochi, Black Carbon Muchan finally saw the "Black Carbon Orochi", a monster that condensed the fire of hatred in Black Carbon, in his lifetime.How exactly does it use its cruel wisdom that far exceeds my own shallow imagination to complete its revenge on the Kotsuki clan?

The only way to do this is to make the former victims feel sick and disgusted, and even disgust themselves with the cruelty of being human beings like their abusers.

Only then can the Heitan family survivors who have survived the previous persecutions against the Heitan family be completely liberated from the dark memories that they cannot bear to look back on.

But maybe it's because the Heitan family was liberated from the obsession for revenge under the leadership of Orochi.

In the original historical trajectory, it was clear that a few years later, Kozuki Momonosuke could still imitate Kozuki Momonosuke on the battlefield, thereby inducing Kozuki Oden to reveal a fatal flaw in the important battle that decided the fate of Wano Country.

Now, because he has finally completed the revenge mission entrusted to him by the ancestors of the Heitan family and witnessed the "Heitan rule" that the Heitan family has dreamed of for generations, his life so far can be said to be without regrets, and he can finally When he was completely freed from the shackles of the Heitan family's tragic wishes.

However, because of this, he lost the spiritual support of trying his best to extend his life, and his body fell into irreversible decline.

In this sea of ​​"mind is more important than matter", once there is a problem with the human mind, the consequences will be far more serious than losing one or two arms, or two or three legs and feet.

This is especially true for Kuotan Kuchan, who is already active in various fields of work in Wano far beyond his retirement age. This can be said to be the most important elder in the development of the Kuotan family. Even if he was born on the main island of the capital, Food and nourishing food failed to restore the body.

But at this time, Heitan Muchan didn't have much worries about her body, and even those offshore fleets that knew at a glance that the current Wano country could not afford to be low-end would not make her panic.

Although the power of the Orochi can repel the Sea Emperor, once he returns to the country, he will be able to drive out all the pirates who have invaded the country at this time like a plow and a cave.

But this old man of the Kuotan family, whose brain has not yet completely aged with age, is confident that Wano, which currently has only two or three kittens, can protect the core of the capital from being invaded before Orochi returns.

It also comes from the invincible defensive ability of his younger brother: Heitanchanmaru.

Its true form is the "Outer Sea Magic" that makes even the monsters on the "Rocks Pirates" feel helpless. It can create invisible walls that cannot be destroyed by any means, called: Superman Barrier Fruit.

'It's just that since I'm like this, and there's no Cicada who's much younger than me, how can my health get better? '

Looking at his younger brother playing the pipa as if nothing had happened, even though he had seen through his own life and death, Heitan Muchan couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness for his younger brother.

At this moment, Kanjuro, who had been clearly not thinking about this since just now, suddenly opened his eyes wide and said:

"I'm very sorry, Lord Muchan and Lord Chanmaru. The pirates from the outer sea known as the 'Fire Disaster' have broken through the defense line of the navy from the air, and have paralyzed those stationed in Renwu Port with unknown fire magic. defense forces.

According to the contacts between the ink-painted animals, the thief is now flying towards the location of the capital island.I also ask you two adults to retreat first to the old site of Kuotan Castle at the base of the sacred cherry tree. Here, I, Kuotan Kanjuro, will capture the thief! "

Looking at the rare solemn face of Kanjuro in front of him, Heitan Muchan knew that in the country of Wano at this time, only this man, who was the head of the Heitan family branch, could communicate with those seamen who were born in the new world. Thieves have the power to fight.

"Hehehe, Kanjuro, the other party is a monster pirate in the outer seas who has been offered a bounty of hundreds of millions of beli by the World Government.

There are no other ability users in the country who can cooperate with you in the air. If you are alone, you will fight with the other party.

Even if you have it, no, you will definitely be killed by the opponent.Even so, are you going? "

In response to Heitanmuchan's threatening question, Kanjuro didn't hesitate at all and answered loudly:

"Yes! For His Highness Orochi, I will do whatever it takes even if I am in trouble!

Although I am not talented, I can still do my best to protect the capital island from foreign enemies before His Highness returns! "

"Hehehe, I can only wish the Heitan family's acting palace minister good luck in martial arts, don't worry about us, just go where you should go."

"Yes! I am willing to obey Master Muchan's orders!"

Seeing Kanjuro and his attendants respectfully retreating from the audience hall, the two siblings who stayed in this empty hall did not speak, maintaining a tacit understanding of an eerie silence.

Only the plaintive tone of Chanmaru's biwa, which had never left his side since he escaped from Wano Country, continued to echo.

It wasn't until the sound of a giant bird flying in the wind came from outside the curtain of the audience hall that Heitan Chanmaru stopped playing the pipa song in his hand, turned his head to look at where his sister was, and took the rare opportunity to start singing first. road:

"The bells of Gion Vihara play the sound of the impermanence of all things. The color of the flowers of the two trees of Salo represents the way that those who prosper will inevitably decline."

Hearing this, Heitan Muchan couldn't help but asked angrily:

"Why, could it be that our Heitan family, which has a great foundation that can last for eternity, can't get into the eyes of you boy Cicada Wan?

Do you think that our Heitan family will eventually go down the same path as the Kozuki family that lost all its descendants? Those who prosper must decline? "

"This is yet to be determined."

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, kid, if it weren't for this situation, I would definitely tell you to wake up."

Heitan Chanmaru didn't respond to his sister's angry rebuke. He just stretched out his hands that were like pine bark, split along the veins that transport blood, and regarded the hands as if they were life. The pipa is properly placed on the lap of the seated person.

As for the plectrum made of precious tree sheets that was given to me by a coating master when I visited the Chambord Islands in the past, it was placed in the lobster tail slot at the top of the lute.

After confirming that nothing would go wrong with Pipa, Heitan Chanmaru nodded with some comfort, replaced his eyes that had lost their brightness due to tears with his own not-so-exquisite knowledge and knowledge, and looked at the conscious See the silent family sister.

Without saying anything else, he just forced himself to lift the corners of his already stiff mouth and cross his index and middle fingers with each other.

“…It is said that this gesture has the meaning of praying for good luck in some overseas cultural circles, so it is perfectly timed.

Just think of it as an insignificant contribution made by this incompetent Heitan tribesman to our Heitan rule for eternity. "

"Hey, Chanmaru, you kid, don't say such depressing words, now it's just some ignorant and reckless thieves from overseas who dare to invade our country.

As long as the country and I work together, we will be able to drive these thieves out of the country, and the capital will be safe and sound..."

"Sister, with the current domestic power, it is just nonsense to expel these notorious thieves overseas.

Nowadays, the most important thing is to preserve the sacred place where our Heitan family's rule will last for eternity.

The only important thing is to work together to ensure that the land on the capital island is safe.

As for the rest, including you and me, who are old and decayed, they are just trivial details that the mother must care about. "

There was another eerie silence, but now there was no sound of pipa echoing in it.

"Then, let me risk my life to protect the eternal foundation of my Heitan family. Barrier: Sumamata One Night Castle!"
