People are pirates, this navy is not very fair!

At dusk, the fire clouds in the sky were dark red.

Zou, the furry principality.

In the middle of a dense green forest, there is an ancient city. The architectural style inside still continues the old style of hundreds of years ago. Most of the houses are rough stone buildings.

In the very center of the city, there is a huge tree that looks like a whale with its head raised and its tail facing the sky. It is particularly conspicuous and can be said to be a landmark building.

On the streets of the city, fur people of different shapes such as rabbit people, dog people, cat people, and leopard people come and go. Their faces are filled with happy smiles and they live a leisurely and contented life.

Under the big whale tree, there was a bunny girl wearing an orange short skirt, short golden shoulder-length hair, and snow-white soft fur all over her body. She looked up at the leafy tree in front of her and said softly:

“Boss Cat Viper, why can’t we leave Zou at will?

I really want to see the outside world..."

Hearing this, standing next to the bunny girl, a fat cat man wearing a red robe, with golden hair all over his body, laughed and said:

"Garrot, the outside world is very dangerous!

We fur people are a rare race in the outside world!

If you are not strong enough, you will be captured and made a slave..."

"I'm already strong!"

While speaking, the bunny girl Garrot also raised her right hand.

Immediately afterwards, blue arc lightning made a "crackling-!" sound on her hand.

Seeing this scene, Cat Viper couldn't help but smile and shook his head and said:

"Hahaha! With your strength, it's not enough!

You see, Pedro is so strong. After he went out, he lost an eye, lost fifty years of his life, and came back here in embarrassment.

Besides..."

"And what?"

"Our agreement with Mrs. Shi is coming in more than three years!

At that time, our fur tribe will send all our elite forces to the country of Wano to help the Kozuki family found the country...

Therefore, the strength of every fur tribe warrior is indispensable. "

"Boss Cat Viper, I heard that the fur tribe and the Kozuki family have been allies for generations...

How is this going? "Garlot asked curiously.

"This has something to do with the agreement made eight hundred years ago...

The specific reasons have been lost in the long river of history.

In our generation, we only remember our elders telling us to help Wano and Joyboy create a new world eight hundred years later.

A world where we fur people can live freely and equally on land..." Cat Viper said in a sad tone.

In fact, he didn't really care about his ancestor's promise...

However, he had sworn allegiance to Kozuki Oden and the Kozuki family for decades.

Therefore, in order to fulfill Kozuki Oden's last wish to found the country, he would risk his own life!

When that day comes, as Zou's "King of the Night", he will lead his men to the country of Wano.

Neko Viper believes that this is true even for Duke Inarashi, the "King of Day" who has always been at odds with him.

Suddenly!

Ripples appeared in the void, and a huge folding door quietly opened.

The surging seawater carried a ketch directly into the sky of the city. With a loud "Boom!", it landed on the stone ground, not far from Cat Viper and Garrott. .

Seeing this scene, many fur tribesmen were surprised and rushed towards the central square.

"I didn't expect that pirates would break into this place..."

The moment Cat Viper saw the black pirate flag on the ketch, he couldn't help but his face sank like water, his eyes were filled with fierceness, and an extremely dangerous and violent aura erupted from his body, like a cat ready to choose someone to kill. A vicious beast that eats.

However......

When he glanced across the ship and saw Kozuki Hiyori standing on the edge of the ship, wearing a pink kimono and an Enma sword, he couldn't help but his pupils suddenly shrank and his whole body trembled. He subconsciously He shouted:

"Mrs. Shi!?"

Suddenly hearing this call, a look of astonishment appeared on Mitsuki Hiwa's face. She followed the call and saw Viper rushing towards the ketch. The figure jumped onto the deck of the sailboat.

Seeing this situation, Kozuki Hiwa couldn't help covering his mouth and said softly:

"Cat Viper!?"

"Eh!? You're not Mrs. Toki...you're Hiyori-sama!"

When she got closer, Cat Viper realized that although the woman in front of her was very similar to Mrs. Shi twenty years ago, if you look closely, you will find that she is a little too young...

Immediately, he remembered Kozuki Hiyori when he was a child.

Calculating carefully, after not seeing each other for more than ten years, the daughter of Lord Kozuki Oden must have grown up.

"long time no see!"

Excited, Kozuki Hiyori couldn't help but throw herself into Cat Viper's arms and hugged each other tightly.

"Hahaha! It's really Hiyori-sama!

I haven’t seen you for so many years, you have grown up! "Cat Viper said with a smile.

While the two were talking, Garrot also jumped on the sailboat. She looked at the seven outsiders in front of her with curious eyes.

Standing next to Yamato, after hearing the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but said with a puzzled face:

"Eh!? Wait, Xiao Zi.

Why does this cat call you Hiyori-sama! ? "

"Ah! This..."

Hearing this, a look of embarrassment and hesitation appeared on Kozuki Hiwa's face.

After getting excited, she remembered that she had never told Yamato and others about her true identity.

Thinking of this, Kozuki Hiwa subconsciously glanced at Sephiroth, who smiled and nodded, indicating that it was okay for her to speak frankly.

Seeing this scene, Hiyori Kozuki immediately bowed deeply towards Yamato and others. She explained in an apologetic tone:

"I'm so sorry! I have hidden my true identity from everyone all this time.

Actually, I am a member of the Kozuki clan of Wano Country, and my name is Kozuki Hiyori..."

After everyone silently listened to what happened to Kozuki Hiwa in Wano Country when she was a child, everyone looked at her with pity and sympathy.

"Although Hiyori you lied to us, there is a reason for this, so I forgive you!" Nami comforted with a smile.

"Whether you are Xiao Zi or Hiyori Kozuki, we are all important partners and this will never change."

Yamato laughed and reached out to pat Mitsutsuki Hiyori on the shoulder, not sticking to these small details at all.

Perona, Iska, and Guina also smiled and forgave her for hiding her behavior and expressed their understanding.

"Thank you everyone!" Hiyori Kozuki bowed deeply.

"Hiyori-sama, since you have left Wano Country, why not stay in Zou!

We fur tribe will fight to the death to protect your safety! "Cat Viper said with sincerity.

Hearing this, Hiyori Kozuki immediately smiled and shook his head in refusal:

"No! I am no longer a weak little girl, and I also have strong strength and important partners that I can rely on.

When I come to Zuowu this time, I just want to see Neko Viper and Inuarashi, how are you two doing? "

"I can indeed feel the strong aura exuding from Hiyori-sama...

However, as long as you ask, we Zou soldiers will definitely go all out to help the Kozuki family!

In the future, when the time comes as promised, when the country of Wano is ready to found its own country and conquer Kaido, we will also lend a helping hand. "

Cat Viper looked at the light, moon and sun in front of him, his eyes were full of seriousness and solemnity.

"Yes! I understand." Hiwa Kozuki agreed with a smile.

The alliance between the fur tribe and the Kozuki family is simply a troublesome double-edged sword! ...Sephiroth whispered secretly in his heart.

If Kozuki Momonosuke is not here, Kozuki Hiyori can represent the will of the Kozuki family, but if the former appears...

Given the country's tradition of favoring sons over daughters, and the tradition of men inheriting family businesses, Hiyori Kozuki's status would instantly become insignificant.

While Sephiroth was thinking, Garrot walked up to him at some point and gently rubbed his cheek against the back of his hand.

The soft and comfortable touch of fur made him withdraw from thinking, and subconsciously touched the cheek of the bunny girl next to him with his hand. The latter seemed to be pleased with this, with a comfortable and comfortable expression on his face, and opened his mouth. She gently bit his index finger and licked it gently with her tongue.

Seeing this scene, Guina, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but complain:

"As expected! No matter where he goes, Sephiroth can somehow provoke girls."

Perona, who was holding a stuffed bear and floating in the air, nodded with deep understanding:

"That's right! That's right!"

Iska covered his face with his hands and sighed inexplicably:

"It hasn't even been five minutes yet!"

Sephiroth: "..."

I haven't done anything yet! It was obviously the little rabbit who came here on his own... Sephiroth cursed in his heart while tracing Garrot's soft white fur.

"Hahaha! It seems that Garrott likes you very much!" Cat Viper laughed.

"Huh!? Do you fur tribes also like ordinary humans?" Yamato said with a surprised look on his face.

"From the perspective of us fur tribes, you humans are actually a kind of hairless monkeys, no different from us.

Some fur people also admire and like the smooth, hairless skin of you humans. Garrot is one of these people. "

"You fur tribe's aesthetic concepts are quite open!" Sephiroth knelt down and touched Garrot's long white rabbit ears lovingly.

next moment.

Chirp-!

Under the stunned gazes of the six girls, Garrot actually bit Sephiroth's right cheek lightly.

Sephiroth reached out and touched his cheek. He was speechless and said:

"Huh!? You are so enthusiastic!"

This behavior of the bunny girl was so sudden that it made him, an experienced driver, a little shy!

"Because you have a nice smell..."

Garrot thought for a moment and then added:

"Attractive carrot scent!"

"Huh!? I see... I was just cooking for dinner!" Sephiroth suddenly smiled.

I wonder, which rabbit can resist the temptation of carrots...?

What's more, the carrot dishes were made by Sephiroth, a top chef!

Yamato touched his belly and said with a smile:

"Speaking of dinner, I'm getting hungry!"

Hearing this, Perona quickly floated to Sephiroth's side, shook his arm and said:

"Yeah! I'm hungry too.

Sephiroth, I want to eat your cooking! "

"I really want to taste your carrot dishes too!"

Garrott could not help but salivate as she recalled the taste of licking Sephiroth's fingertips.

"Huh!? Over at Angel Island, I rushed back to make dinner..." Sephiroth scratched his head helplessly.

In response, Yamato directly raised his hands and laughed heartlessly:

"In that case...it's decided! Let's have a banquet together!"

Hearing this, Sephiroth could only sigh helplessly:

"Yamato, you are really... okay!

I asked other people from Angel Island to come over and hold a banquet here in Zou. "

So, Sephiroth had no choice but to open the space door and bring Black Maria, Monet and others to Zou, while Cat Viper asked the fur tribe people to prepare bonfires, food, musical instruments and other things. , come to hold a grand bonfire banquet for Kozuki Hiyori and others.

Soon, a huge bonfire was set up. As the flames lit the bonfire, music sounded, and the tempting aroma of food floated in the air. Yamato, the others, and the fur tribe were immersed in the joyful banquet atmosphere. Among them, even Inarashi, who does not come out at night, rules the day, and is at odds with Cat Viper, he also came after hearing the news and met Mitsuki Hiyori.

After learning that the disagreement between the two people was caused by the death of the Kozuki family, Kozuki Hiyori immediately acted as a mediator and took the initiative to resolve their conflicts that had lasted for more than ten years.

On the other side, Garrot also got his wish and ate Sephiroth's carrot dishes. He ate her flat belly until it was as round as a ball, and then she stopped reluctantly.

Late at night, with the waning moon in the sky, the sky is filled with stars.

Sephiroth was busy for several hours. After feeding a group of people who came to beg for food, he finally took time out and entered the giant whale tree in the center of the city. He saw a carved ancient Red historical text stone tablet with text.

"Tsk! There is still one piece of historical text left before we can go to Raffdrew!

Although I am not interested in big secret treasures, I feel a sense of accomplishment that I am about to collect all the cards..."

While muttering, Sephiroth took out the image shell, turned on the flash, and took a picture of the historical text on the stone tablet, preparing to hand this information to Nico Robin.

Presumably, she would be very happy to receive this gift...?

..................

The next day, early in the morning.

Under the farewell of Neko Viper, Inuarashi and others, Sephiroth opened the space door again and sent Yamato and others down to the blue sea, ready to start a new journey.

However, after Yamato and others completely left Zou, they discovered that Garrot, who was full of curiosity about the outside world, had quietly hidden in the cabin at some point, wanting to go on an adventure with them.

Yamato agreed without even thinking about it and added a crew member to himself...
