"So you left the Flower Capital because you didn't want to betray Himura Kenshin and his teacher?"
Right now, on the road, Ann, Hyougoro, and his wife were walking side by side. Along the way, she had heard Hyougoro tell about what had happened before.
This was a little different from what she thought...
She originally thought that Hyougoro was in such a hurry to leave the Flower Capital possibly because he was threatened by a demon, but now it seems...
Wasn't it just a country's prince almost being killed, and then wanting to get revenge?
This...
There's really nothing special about it.
She was a little disappointed. She originally thought that she could get some clues as soon as she arrived in Wano Country.
"You can understand it that way." Hyougoro sighed and said, "Well, I already told Oden not to chase Kenshin, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I didn't expect Kenshin to use such heavy force."
Ann's heart stirred, and she curiously asked, "In your understanding of Himura Kenshin, isn't he not that kind of person?"
"No, actually, strictly speaking, I don't understand him." Hyougoro raised his head slightly, as if recalling the past.
"When I met him, he had just taken Kenshin as a disciple. At that time, Kenshin was still young, so Hiko took him to many places and let him train his swordsmanship in the dojo. Because I was praised by many people as the boss Hyougoro, someone told me about this."
"Once, when he went to the dojo as usual, I saw him. I still know him very well. He is a very negative person. I don't know what he has experienced, but his personality really has great flaws. He is very negative and thinks that swordsmen will only be used by others."
"Later, I spent some time with their master and apprentice, but at that time, Kenshin was too young, and I couldn't compare his personality at that time with now. As for later, after Baiku took Kenshin away, I rarely saw them..."
"Kenshin followed him to study, and I think it is very likely that he learned Hiko's negative attitude, but I didn't expect him to attack Oden so hard."
Ann listened to Hyougoro's words and could hear the gloom in his words.
It was also difficult for him, Kozuki Oden was his junior and friend; Hiko was his friend, Kenshin was his junior, and he himself was caught in the middle of the two sides, and for a while he didn't know what to do.
So he could only leave the Flower Capital and let things develop naturally.
But Ann was very interested in Hiko Qingjiro and Himura Kenshin. She was thinking that since Hiko knew that swordsmen would only be used, he should be more careful in his actions.
And Kenshin has been studying with him for so many years, he shouldn't kill people as soon as he makes a move.
So what happened in the middle?
Ann glanced at Hyougoro, she knew that Hyougoro probably didn't know the whereabouts of Himura Kenshin either, otherwise she could go directly to see.
After thinking about it, she said, "I have some doubts in my heart, but let's see how it develops later."
Her attitude on this point was similar to Hyougoro's. There were too few clues on the surface right now. She also said to Hyougoro, "Where are you going to settle down? Can I trouble you?"
"You want to be with us?" Hyougoro looked at Ann in surprise.
"Is it not okay?" Ann also knew that this was a bit presumptuous, but her personality was actually a bit like Roger's, after all, she was the same person in the past, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
Of course not!
Hyougoro really wanted to say that, but he knew that Ann was very strong, and it would be best if he could avoid falling out with her.
And he also wanted to see what Ann wanted to do.
She was an outsider who came to Wano Country and said 'alarming' words, which also made him very concerned. If Ann was a person with evil intentions, he could prepare in time.
"Mainly... is it not good for a woman like you to live with us?"
"Oh, this." Ann said casually, "Why are your rules here so troublesome? It's not like sleeping in the same bed with you?"
"Okay, if you don't care, then I won't say more. In Heimei, I have a stronghold that I left before. Let's go there and see what happens next."
For Hyougoro, the best result would of course be that nothing happened.
He only hoped that Oden was currently in a fit of anger, and that nothing would happen when the anger in his heart was soothed.
He also hoped that Kenshin and the others would not appear for the time being, and let peace suppress anger.
But for Ann, the best result was chaos, because only when it was chaotic would those hidden Gyuki snake gods come out.
In her heart, Oden and Kenshin are currently suspicious, after all, she doesn't have any more clues now.
By the time it was evening, they had arrived at their destination.
Heimei is indeed a relatively desolate area. There are very few people on this land separated by a river.
But after all, it is a large area of Wano Country, so this small number is only compared to the Flower Capital.
Hyougoro should have left a way out here a long time ago when he was still a Yakuza boss.
The stronghold he was talking about was not in the city, but in a remote small mountain, which Ann was still very satisfied with.
At least it wouldn't be so high-profile, and as an outsider, she wouldn't be noticed by so many people when she came in and out.
"But since you are going to stay in Wano Country for a while, I still suggest that you accept the rules of Wano Country."
In this stronghold, which covers an area of more than 300 square meters, there are four rooms. Hyougoro led Ann into a room, glanced at Ann, and couldn't help but say as he looked at her clothes.
Ann thought for a while and nodded. What Hyougoro said made sense. She should indeed adapt to the local culture, after all, what she wanted to do was to infiltrate.
"There are two kimonos here, they are my wife's, I don't know if they fit you, just wear them for now."
Hyougoro handed Ann a package, and Ann took it and said sincerely, "Thank you so much, I will definitely find the demon lurking in Wano Country."
"I hope you never find it." Hyougoro sighed, then turned and left.
Ann knew that Hyougoro was not cursing her to be in vain, he was saying that he hoped there were no demons in Wano Country, and if there were none, she would naturally not be able to find them.
Ann also hoped there were none, but she knew that this hope simply did not exist.
Because after Hyougoro left, she had already started contacting Thunder God through the Den Den Mushi, and Thunder God had already arrived in Wano Country.
"I found Tunfu Boy, but he also found me, and I lost track of him."
Tunfu Boy is here, so is there any doubt?
Tunfo Boy, Toguro...
These two people are very powerful demons!
