[One Piece] Hello, Single Dog Warring States Marshal!

When the lights come on and night falls, it’s time for this street, which can be called a happy place, to open for business.Sanctified nobles, prestigious scholars, and even hawkers with a little spare money have all become 'clients' of this gold-selling cave.The flamboyant men and women use themselves as commodities, selling themselves openly on the streets, in bars, and in clubs. They come and go between cups and cups. This place that breeds countless romances and human tragedies has become this long story. The only place of comfort in the long night...

And tonight, a grand event is being held in this gentle town.

"Coming, coming, look over there!"

"My God, what a grand display!"

"Grandma Lou really spent a lot of money on this parade."

"Don't stand in my way, I want to see what the oiran looks like! Is it as pale as the picture and as white as a pancake? Hahaha——"

Crowds of voices and crowds surged. Tonight’s Flower Street was specially cleared and the streets looked extra wide. After the gong that heralded the arrival of the oiran rang, the streets were instantly filled with all kinds of people, including peddlers and regulars, regulars, Even women from good families with their children flocked here to join in this extraordinarily gimmicky event of 'Oran Parade with Wano Characteristics'.

The moment has come. A tall black-haired man with spiky hair dressed as a Wano manservant and carrying a big umbrella came out from the end of the street carrying a gong. He raised the gong high and struck it hard. .

As soon as the gong was struck, everyone retreated.

Strike the gong twice and set your posture in the middle of the road.

Three strokes of the gong, and the oiran arrives——

"It's coming, it's coming..."

"Shh, don't talk!"

After three strikes of the gong, as the gong’s unique, vibrating buzzing sound of “哐————” resounded through the streets, the originally noisy people gradually quieted down, and stretched their necks to look expectantly at the people who had already set their feet. The parade started in full swing, and at the end of the parade, a figure in colorful clothes appeared.

"Beep————" The clear sound of piccolo music came through the air, lifting people's spirits!

The musical instruments began to play, mostly flutes. The melodious and high-pitched music made the person who was about to enter the public eye more mysterious and noble, as if what was about to come was a god descending from the sky instead of what the men most wanted. Sleeping like a prostitute.

This is called momentum.

The hairpin ring on my head shook and collided slightly, making a small metallic crunching sound. I took a deep breath and clasped my hands nervously in front of me.

It's about to start.

calm……

"come on."

Quietly cheering myself up, I raised my head and was about to put on a professional fake smile——

"Don't be afraid, just walk over."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind, which startled me.I was about to look back, but suddenly I thought of the current situation and held it back. I just whispered with my lips barely moving: "Why are you here?"

Behind me, the tall man who put down the gong smiled and stretched out his hand to push. The long umbrella unfolded and was placed steadily half a meter above my head.

"Grandma Lou wants me to be the flower protector or something." Before the team started marching, Garp spoke to me quietly: "Warring States is in the VIP seats in the second half of the street. Those people in the seats It’s not all our eyes and ears, he can’t move around without permission, he’s just waiting there.”

I stared straight ahead as if nothing had happened, my vocal cords vibrated and I responded with a weak 'um'. Soon, the conversation between Garp and I had to end——

"Beep—"

With the gentle sound of the flute, everyone got the signal for the opening. The valet holding the lamp at the front was already carrying the eight-layered Qionghua coat of arms on the left side, and the words "Qiongji" written in the characters of Wano Country on the right side. The lantern of Zi took steps forward, and as he moved, the entire team began to move.

The 'heraldic lantern bearer' at the head was followed by several male servants holding ceremonial guards, followed by the 'balds' who lined up neatly in four rows of two, and then came the 'oiran' in the middle of the line... Seven

Watching the 'balds' gradually move forward, I stretched out my left hand and gently placed it on the right shoulder of the manservant who was waiting beside me, which was covered with a white square scarf, and made the final preparations. program.

Then, as Garp, who was holding an umbrella for me behind me, said "Let's go" with a hint of encouragement, I took a deep breath and raised my steps——

The oiran parade officially begins.

-

Although the Kingdom of Goa is a small country, there are many things that should exist...

This is the seating area known as the 'VIP Seats'. Different from the crowded lines in the first half of Flower Street, two rows of exquisite and comfortable seats were set up on both sides of the street after clearance, specially set up for guests who spend a lot of money and have high status.At this time, the 'VIP seats' were packed, and every seat was booked by various financial sponsors. Even though there were gaps between the seats, it seemed a bit crowded when surrounded by various slaves and servants.

There is a wooden sign placed on the seats of the sponsors, which is used to 'bid', and the object that the sponsors are bidding for tonight is the protagonist of this parade event, the most dazzling one in the flower street. A pearl - the oiran 'Qiong Ji'.

However, no one knows yet that the famous 'Qiong Ji' has been temporarily replaced by an unrelated girl...

The unique "Oiran Parade" activity in Flower Street has received a lot of attention in this small country located in the East China Sea. Sengoku, who was dressed as a nobleman from the Kingdom of Wano, lowered his eyes and covered half of his face with the gesture of drinking tea. I just casually glanced around with my peripheral vision and saw a lot of familiar guys.

How dare these people not even cover their faces?

Not far away, the sound of oirans parading in the street began to be heard. Warring States glanced over there, and his eyes were fixed on the 'oiran' who looked like he was walking on stilts and was walking very steadily.

.........Is that Irene?

Even though they were still a short distance away, Warring States could already see that person's face clearly - the dressed-up woman surrounded by people in the middle of the team had a slight smile on her lips, and her rich makeup made her look gentle on weekdays. Her beautiful face was decorated with bright and enchanting colors, and accompanied by the person's rigorous rhythm of Chinese characters, her whole person seemed aloof and full of some inexplicable strong attraction...

It is a kind of instinctive desire among men to pluck the flowers from the high mountains.

Can a person's temperament change so much in a short period of time?

real or fake……

The young Lieutenant General Warring States was very puzzled by this, and subconsciously ignored his inexplicably fast heartbeat, forced himself to look away, and silently picked up the tea cup to drink tea.

The journey of Oiran is not long. It is only about [-] meters and we soon reached the second half of the journey. We will be screaming, 'Miss Qiongji is so beautiful! ', 'Please look at me, Oiran-sama', etc. People left behind, and the 'Oiran' who arrived in full dress walked to the VIP seat with extremely rhythmic goldfish steps, and when 'she' stepped into this At the first step of the dividing line between wealth and poverty, the bidding for 'her' began.

I followed the arrangement and began to put away the goldfish steps and only retained the foreign eight-character steps. This allowed me to present myself more completely to these donors and gave them enough time to see my face clearly... …

Then, when I took the second step on the Oiran Road in the VIP area, a thin small sign was thrown at me from the seat on the left——

The 'New' girl next to her picked up the sign and sang the price on it loudly: "Seat No. 3000, bid [-] million beli——"

This singing of bids seemed to turn on a certain switch. Next, sponsors from various seats on the left and right continued to throw bid signs at me, and the newly minted girls serving on both sides of me sang one by one, "I" The price kept rising, and by the time I reached the middle of the VIP table, the highest bid from the financiers had reached one billion beli.

It was also at this time that from the corner of my eye, Sengoku sitting in the seat appeared.

……

…………

I don't know why, I kept my expression straight the whole time I was pretending, but the moment I saw him, I suddenly felt a little nervous.

According to the script, he also has to bid, and he has to be the highest bidder to buy 'me'...

Hmm... I've always felt quite ashamed of this setting.

I silently lowered my eyes, deliberately turned my face to the other side, and showed a cold and half-closed smile to the sponsors who were bidding desperately for 'me'... This made the bidding pace faster and faster, but In just one or two steps, 'I' was worth over 20 billion.

I really had no intention of making the bidding more difficult for Warring States, I just smiled (showing my hands).

[...Madam, you read out the quotes from the scumbag girl. 】

The little A5 idiot secretly complained to me.

How can there be.

Finally hearing the bid for the Warring States Seat, I forced myself to retract the curve of the corners of my mouth and unfolded the painting fan to cover half of my face.

I'm just a little angry with that guy.

-

The street downstairs was as lively as the Chinese New Year, and the sponsors were almost tearing up their faces in order to spend a night with the 'oiran', and they barely even rolled up their sleeves to fight each other.

It seems that the girl who was temporarily captured to work is quite capable, but she has confused these men and they can't find anything.

The still-charming Grandma Lou leaned against the window, gently waving her fan, and half-squinted her eyes as she looked at the team that was almost overwhelmed by the bidding signs and the 'oiran' girl who was extremely talented and could hold up the show.

What's her name?It seems to be called...Ellie? (Old Sui:...it's Irene, not Ally...Garp comes out and gets beaten!)

"...It should be almost done."

The head of the intelligence peddler, who was hiding in the darkness, put away the fan in her hand. A slight smile appeared on her beautiful face whose age could not be seen at all. She opened her eyes, and her eyes were cold and sharp, falling on the long street. The team was full of calculations.

She has laid out such a big battle, and even specially protected Mr. Lieutenant General and Miss Ally, who were recently released as "wanted criminals". Even this can't catch Qiong Ji's black-hearted white-eyed wolf. Her mother-in-law will start tomorrow. Just switch to a vegetarian diet.

And just when she was muttering that the time was coming, something unexpected seemed to happen to the oiran team downstairs, and chaos broke out almost instantly!

"She is a fake!! I am Qiong Ji!!!"

A woman who was wearing a new suit and blending in with the team rushed forward almost hysterically. Before anyone could react, she broke through the circle of bald men with a few strides. She suddenly pulled out a handful of flashing lights from her arms. The blue-light dagger was raised high and pointed at the 'Oiran' dressed in costume -

"what--!!!!"

"We're going to kill people————!!!"

There were various high and low screams from the crowd. The costume on my body was too cumbersome. When I realized what I was doing and turned around to look, what I saw in front of me was a man who was only one step away from me. The dagger that had hurt someone and was covered in blood, and the figure of a woman with a ferocious and even crazy expression rushing towards me——

"Go to hell!!! Fake!!!!!!" she screamed, and the hatred in her eyes was as real as she pounced on me.

I opened my eyes subconsciously and instinctively wanted to run, but found that I couldn't move freely while standing on these fifty-centimeter-high wooden clogs...

Ah, I'm going to suffer.

At this moment, the only thing left in my mind was this consciousness.
