Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 Trap

When Jack brought the well-dressed Komurasaki to Onigashima, everyone on Onigashima was astonished to see the layers of bandages wrapped around Jack's body by his subordinates.

"Hey, hey, how pathetic, to actually be dealt with by these samurai…"

Sasaki, guarding the entrance, couldn't control his mouth and said mockingly.

This time, Jack didn't retort; instead, he touched his wound, the pain making his mind very clear.

After glancing at Sasaki, he ignored him and walked into the main hall with Komurasaki.

Kaido and King, who had already dealt with Yamato's matter, also returned here.

Without Yamato, the unfilial daughter and big troublemaker, Kaido was now even more confident in ruling the entire Wano Country.

"Big Brother Kaido, I've brought Komurasaki to you!"

Instantly, the gazes of all the men present fell upon the exceptionally beautiful Komurasaki, though their expressions varied.

Only Queen and Sasaki genuinely showed covetousness, especially Queen, whose drool was almost dripping.

As for the others…

King looked surprised; if Big Brother Kaido hadn't told him the truth, he would never have imagined that the current most beautiful woman in Wano Country was Oden's daughter, Kozuki Hiyori.

Who's-Who had an evil expression, thinking that such a delicate woman probably couldn't withstand Kaido-sama's conquest and might die in a few days!

Page One was simply not interested.

Black Maria's gaze showed a look of defiance.

Only Ulti was full of disgust, saying fiercely, "This cheap woman…"

"You've worked hard, Jack!"

Kaido finally saw this princess of a fallen country, the worst-described in Pirate King, the blower, plucker, and singer enthusiast, Oden's daughter: Kozuki Hiyori.

It must be said that, in terms of figure, she absolutely deserved the title of Wano Country's most beautiful woman, but unfortunately, compared to other female characters in Pirate King, she was truly too loathsome.

However, as a tool, she was enough…

And as the members of the Beasts Pirates gazed at Komurasaki, as Oden's daughter, she dared not look up at this moment.

She couldn't guarantee that she would remain calm when seeing her father's killer before her, especially when she thought about having to serve this man next, her heart was filled with humiliation.

But just then, the words that echoed through the entire hall made her so surprised that she had to look up.

"How about it, Jack, the strength of those samurai!?"

Jack touched the bandages on his chest again, feeling the pain emanating from them, and said with cold eyes, "They are very formidable guys, but, Big Brother Kaido, don't worry, I will definitely kill that man named Kyoshiro."

"Oh, if that's the case, then his life is in your hands!"

"No problem, Big Brother Kaido!"

"Very well then, next I will tell you my true plan, but before that, we still need to wait for someone, has Orochi arrived yet…"

Although the Beasts Pirates' strength could deal with those samurai, the losses would be relatively large.

There was absolutely no need for that; it was better to pull Orochi in as well, with his hatred for Oden, he would definitely exert great effort.

At that time, the clam and the snipe fight, and the fisherman profits!

Jack then said, "I've already told that guy named Kyoshiro your words, Big Brother Kaido, but will he come…"

Just then, the voice of a subordinate came from outside.

"Kaido-sama, General Orochi wishes to see you!"

"Hmph hmph, let him in!"

Queen, standing nearby, smiled and said, "Oh, how interesting, it seems Orochi is truly infatuated with this woman, isn't he? You know that guy is very afraid of you, Big Brother, yet now he dares to come to Onigashima…"

As Queen's voice fell, Orochi's wretched figure entered everyone's sight from outside.

He was wearing a black general's uniform, with a hint of fear beneath his wretched smile, walking in cautiously.

And on either side of him were Fukurokuju, the captain of the Oniwabanshu, and his vassal, Kyoshiro.

After the three walked in, their gazes all fell upon Komurasaki.

Seeing that Komurasaki seemed fine, both Orochi and Kyoshiro breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Orochi mustered his courage and said to Kaido, "Hey, Kaido, Komurasaki is my woman, give her back to me.

If you need women, I can let you choose any beauty in the entire Wano Country."

This arrogant tone made all the Beasts Pirates in the hall frown slightly.

Fukurokuju also became nervous.

Kaido, however, looked at ease, propping his chin with his hand, and said with a cunning smile, "Giving this woman back to you is not a problem."

Orochi instantly looked happy, and at the same time, his expression became even more rampant.

However, Kaido's very next sentence soon made him frown deeply.

"It's just, do you really want this woman back?"

Orochi was stunned, somewhat not understanding what Kaido meant.

A strong sense of unease suddenly arose in Kyoshiro's heart.

Kaido then regained his composure, his gaze falling upon Komurasaki, who exuded a worldly aura, and spoke words that astonished everyone in the hall.

"The courtesan of the Flower Capital, should I call you Komurasaki, or your other name: Kozuki Hiyori!!!"

"Boom!!!"

At this instant, Komurasaki, no, Kozuki Hiyori's pupils constricted sharply, her entire body trembled, and her face turned pale.

Kyoshiro also suddenly widened his eyes, then his face was filled with horror and unease.

The surrounding Beasts Pirates also seemed to realize something, looking at the woman before them in disbelief.

As for Orochi, he was completely stunned at this moment, his body trembling, his gaze fixed on Kozuki Hiyori, his face full of terror, unconsciously stepping back.

"Kozuki…Kozuki…how is that possible, this is a surname…could you be…"

This surname, like a nightmare, brought him boundless fear just by being uttered.

Fukurokuju, standing nearby, also said with a surprised look, "Kozuki Hiyori, Orochi-sama…isn't that Oden's daughter's name?"

"!!!"

Just then, Kyoshiro, next to Orochi, suddenly acted.

He drew the long sword from his waist, and with a flash, appeared beside the trembling Hiyori, slashing down with one stroke.

Instantly, blood splattered, and Kozuki Hiyori fell down with an incredulous look on her face.

This sudden turn of events once again stunned everyone present.

Orochi roared in disbelief, "Kyoshiro, what are you doing?!"

Kyoshiro withdrew his long sword with a grim expression, held it above his head, and knelt before Orochi, lowering his head and saying, "Orochi-sama, I have failed your trust by allowing such a dangerous woman to be by your side.

Please punish me, Orochi-sama!"

"!!!"

Orochi was speechless for a moment.

The events that had transpired within that minute made his mind reel.

After the initial panic, he looked at Komurasaki, who was covered in blood on the floor, with some reluctance, gritting his teeth, clenching his fists, and roaring with a furious face, "So, Komurasaki really is Kozuki Oden's daughter…"

Kyoshiro slightly raised his head and said with chilling eyes, "Whether she is or not, it no longer matters, Orochi-sama, she is already a corpse anyway."

"This!?"

But just then, King, standing to Kaido's left, watched this performance, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Hey, samurai, although I don't know what your relationship with this woman is, do you think such a small trick can fool us?"

"Eh!?"

Orochi was once again dumbfounded, not understanding what was happening, but Kyoshiro, sweating profusely, had already made his choice.

He took out two smoke bombs from his waist, threw them on the ground, and smoke erupted, obscuring everything around.

Kyoshiro then took the opportunity to pick up Komurasaki, leaped up, intending to jump over everyone and escape from here.

But just then, a cold voice sounded behind him.

"Hey, samurai, where are you going…"

"Rip…"

Intense pain came from his back, and Kyoshiro couldn't control his body, falling back to the ground.

In front of King, his strength was not enough.

And just as he landed, two people appeared on either side of him.

Who's-Who grabbed his hand, capturing him.

Ulti then grabbed the feigning-death Kozuki Hiyori, looked at her slightly twitching eyebrows, and said fiercely, "You woman, you were indeed faking death…"
