Momonosuke's Future Travels (1)
Two years later.
Wano Province Provincial Administrative Region, Jiuli City.
After the alliance took power, the 800-year-old closed state of the country was completely broken, and the entire country of Wano entered a new era of vigorously promoting reform and opening up and striving to be the vanguard of economic development.
Wano Province is naturally rich in mineral resources, as well as the legacy of heavy industrial production from the Kaido era, and it is very competitive in economic development.
But the mayor of Jiuli City has a bit of a headache.
Compared with other parts of the country, Jiuli City has no mines and no factories, and its GDP has not been able to rise, and it plays the role of a poor little brother in the province all year round.
Hailou Stone Mine is not far from here, but Hailou Stone is an important national strategic reserve material, so the surrounding area of the mine has been turned into a national key directly governed area, which has been divided outside the administrative division of Jiuli City.
The mayor of Jiuli looked at the mine, but he was helpless.
There is no GDP in his hand, and the mayor of Jiuli City has no confidence to talk to the leaders when he goes to the flower capital for a meeting.
So, the mayor of Jiuli found another way:
If we cannot afford to engage in light and heavy industries, we will vigorously develop tourism.
He plans to renovate the Ota Castle outside the Nine Mile Castle, which has been abandoned for twenty years, and then stir up the deeds of the alliance leader Galen who personally rebuilt the tomb for the Guangyue clan here, and build the Nine Mile into a tourist city comparable to the Flower Capital, so as to attract a steady stream of foreign tourists to the country of Wano.
Under the auspices of Mayor Jiuli, the restoration project of the original appearance of Yutian Castle was officially launched.
The castle, built by the former Kuri-daimyo Mitsuki Mita, and which had been dormant for twenty years after Kaido's invasion, has finally been revitalized.
However, on this day, on the construction site where the ruins of Ota Castle had just been erected...
The unexpected happened.
The accident occurred with the digging chickens at the construction site.
Digging chickens is the research result of Dr. Indigo, a former ship doctor of the Flying Pirates and now an academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Alliance.
His research direction is to use the special plant IQ discovered by the golden lion to stimulate biological directional evolution.
Under Galen's tutelage, Indigo and his assistants successfully converted the technology from military to civilian use, developing a mutated creature that could help humans in their construction: digging chickens.
The digging chicken is ten meters long and powerful, and looks like a large rooster, but its beak, wings, and claws are a hundred times more flexible than that of a normal rooster.
They can help workers complete the heavy work of digging earthwork and carrying at noon, and once they are popularized, they are warmly welcomed by construction companies and become the hearts and minds of construction workers.
On this day, the digging chickens at the construction site worked hard as usual.
It pecks at construction waste on the ground with its huge beak and cleans up the broken beams and pillars left behind by the old Ota Castle at great speed in preparation for future construction.
However, just as the digging chicken had just put a piece of scrap into the truck next to it, and was about to peck at another boulder with his beak again...
Under the huge beak of the digging chicken, on top of the abandoned boulder, a child suddenly appeared.
The child, who was about eight years old, wore a half-shaved traditional Wano Country hairstyle and wore a pale pink kimono of unusual texture and price.
"Ahh
He cried out in horror when he saw the huge beak of the digging chicken that had been smashed down on his head.
This child is none other than the son of Mitsuki Mita, the young master of the Mitsuki clan, and the Momonosuke of Mitsuki, who has been "dead" for twenty years.
Twenty years ago, Kaido and the Black Carbon Snake teamed up to steal the country.
In the final moments of the war, the Beast Pirates surrounded Mita Castle, surrounding Momonosuke, Momonosuke's mother and sister, and a group of loyal retainers of the Mitsuki family.
That night, the fire burned the entire Ota Castle to the ground.
Just when Momonosuke was about to die in the flames, his mother, Mrs. Toki, unleashed the magical Time Fruit ability to send Momonosuke and his four retainers to the future twenty years later.
That is, now.
At the same moment, Momonosuke was still in the burning Ota Castle.
In the next instant, Momonosuke appeared at the construction site of the restoration project of Ota Castle twenty years later.
And above Momonosuke's head, there was a huge digging chicken beak that smashed down at his head so quickly that it was too late to stop.
"Ahh
Momonosuke turned pale with fright, and only felt that he was about to die under the monster's giant mouth.
Fortunately, he did not come to this era alone.
Sent to the future with Momonosuke, there are also four retainers of the Light Moon Clan:
Fox Fire Kinemon, Shower Kanjuro, Fog no Thunder Zang, Kojuku.
All four were well-trained samurai with unshakable loyalty to the Kyogetsu clan.
Although he hadn't had time to recognize where he was now, the most vigilant of them all, the fox fire Jinemon had already noticed the monster that showed its fangs at his young master:
"Chicken demon, don't hurt my master!"
"Fox Fire Flow, Fire Willow Flash!"
Jinemon is also a sword master who has reached the realm of slashing iron, and as soon as he makes a move, he sets off an extremely powerful sword aura, and the sword qi is also fused with a powerful red flame.
The digging chicken is a good hand at moving mountains and stones, but it is a veritable rookie in battle.
With a terrible cry, the innocent digging chicken was cut in half by Kinemon's sword and fell to the ground again.
All of this happened in an instant.
The workers had not seen the situation clearly, but now they could hear the wailing of the digging chickens and finally realized the danger:
"What?!"
When they saw the corpse of the digging chicken falling to the ground, their faces suddenly changed:
"Someone killed our digging chicken!"
A roar of indignation rang out, and the eyes of the workers suddenly became excited and angry.
It is not only their construction equipment, but also the companion of these workers, which is a special worker on the construction site.
How could the workers not be angry when they saw their friends who worked together brutally cut in half?
Although they haven't figured out where Momonosuke and his party came from, and they don't know why they killed chickens, the workers have been stimulated by these chicken killers to the point that their eyes are bloodshot and their muscles are violent:
"Bastard!"
"Catch them!"
In the midst of a roar, these grumpy construction workers picked up the steel bars, water pipes, and slabs and bricks, and murderously surrounded Momonosuke and his party.
Because of the popularity of the book "Jianhao", the construction workers who are not afraid of hardship and tiredness also have the capital to cultivate, so none of these workers are the kind of weak ordinary people.
They can condense steel bars into twisted flowers with their bare hands, carry boulders like cotton on their shoulders, and charge with swiftness like flying.
"This?!"
Seeing this scene, the alarm bell in the hearts of Fox Fire Jinemon and others rang out:
"These guys, they're all 'samurai'?"
In the old Wano Country, anyone with extraordinary strength was favored by the lord to become a professional samurai loyal to the Wano Country Shogun.
And now...
They have just come to this twenty-year future, and they have seen so many "samurai" as soon as they open their eyes?
The samurai are loyal to the Wano Country General, and the Wano Country General twenty years later does not need to be guessed, it should be the black charcoal snake who usurped power and seized the throne.
"Oops!"
"It's a trap!"
Kinemon's heart froze, and he couldn't help but guess nervously:
"As soon as we arrived in the future, we encountered the siege of the chicken demon and the samurai, it must be that black charcoal snake and Kaido who knew the news that Mrs. Shi sent us to twenty years later, so they specially set up an ambush here to besiege and kill!"
"So, what then?"
Momonosuke became more and more flustered, and his face was as pale as paper.
"Young master, don't panic!"
The loyal retainer Misty Thunder was tightly guarded in front of Momonosuke, and said with a solemn expression:
"With me waiting, we must not let that big snake thief hurt a single hair of the young master!"
"Since the thieves have set up an ambush here, we will fight to the death to find a bloody way to protect the young master!"
As he spoke, Kinemon, Kanjuro, Raizou, and Kokiku, the four retainers who accompanied Momonosuke on his journey to the future, glanced at each other, and without hesitation, drew their swords and faced the group of "samurai".
And the group of construction workers originally just wanted to take Kinemon and others to the government, but now they saw that Kinemon and others were showing their bright control knives, and they didn't dare to show mercy in their hands.
Finally, the two sides collided together.
Although the workers are strong, they are still amateurs after all, and they can't compare to the hard core strength of the four people of Kinemon who are above the average swordsman.
It wasn't long before the construction workers were defeated.
Although the four people of Jinemon did not kill them, they showed no mercy in their hands, cutting down the construction workers with blood and countless minor and serious injuries.
"Quick! Evacuate! ”
"The strength of this group of terrorists is not simple!"
Seeing this scene, the face of the person in charge of the construction site suddenly became extremely solemn.
He hurriedly arranged for people to rescue the injured brothers, and decisively gave up the round-up of the four Kinemons, and without hesitation, he took a group of wounded construction workers to the outside of the construction site of Ota Castle.
Before retreating, the person in charge of the construction site did not forget to take out the phone bug to call the police:
"Is it a comrade from the city bureau?"
"At the construction site of Yutian City outside Jiuli City, there was a terrorist attack!"
"The enemy is strong, the brothers have been seriously injured, send men to chase them down!"
In the midst of the uproar, the construction workers completely withdrew from the construction site in a short period of time, and Kinemon and the others did not know what was going to happen and did not want to pursue too deeply.
The ruins of the huge Ota Castle are only five people left in Momonosuke's party.
And Kinemon's vigilance has not yet been put down:
Although the words "city bureau" and "comrade" that the "enemy samurai leader" said on the phone just now, Kinemon couldn't understand it.
But it is clear that the enemy is calling for reinforcements.
And...
The "enemy samurai leader" actually has a phone bug?
In today's era, because of the development of phone bug cloning technology, phone bugs are no longer a rare thing.
Not to mention phone bugs, even video bugs that can watch TV programs and remote video calls have entered thousands of households and become a daily electronic communication device for everyone.
However, Kinemon was a man who came 20 years ago.
According to Kinemon's understanding, telephone bugs are a scarce resource in Wano Country, and in Wano Country, which is closed to the country, it is a treasure that ordinary people and even low-level samurai cannot touch.
And the "enemy samurai" are not only stationed in the ruins of Ota Castle twenty years later, but also can take out a phone bug to call for reinforcements as soon as they see them, obviously...
It was an organized, premeditated, and behind-the-scenes interception.
"This is definitely Kaido and Orochi's people!"
Kinemon confirmed his initial thoughts, and his mood couldn't help but become more and more solemn:
"Kaido Orochi's heart is immortal, so I have been sending samurai to monitor and wait in Ota Castle."
"Now it seems that our traces have been exposed in front of the Hundred Beast Pirates!"
"We have to get out of here and get to safety."
"Yes."
The three companions of Kanjuro, Raizo and Xiaoju nodded in unison:
"Young master, let's go, shall we?"
As they spoke, they turned their urgent gaze to Momonosuke.
But Momonosuke was slightly stunned, and pointed to a certain direction of the ruins of Ota Castle and said:
"Tomb..."
"There's a big tomb built over there..."
"Huh?"
The four of them were slightly stunned, and then looked at Momonosuke's gaze:
I saw a huge tombstone standing up to two feet high, and the whole body was polished and polished by obsidian, which looked gorgeous and atmospheric.
There are several tombstones, and the tombs are owned by Mitsuki Mita, Kotsuki Momonosuke, Mrs. Shi, Fox Fire Kinemon, Shower Kanjuro...
In short, all five of them present have a feng shui treasure cave in this cemetery.
"This..."
Raizang looked at the overly gorgeous tomb and couldn't help but sigh:
"This Kaido still has a trace of conscience in his heart, and he can still repair such a gorgeous and solemn tomb for the lord."
"But..."
Kinemon was a little puzzled:
"Isn't the size of this tomb a little weird?"
"The Guangyue clan should be headed by Lord Mita, how..."
I saw that among the tall and solemn tombstones, there was a tombstone standing tall among the monuments, standing alone.
It is tall and big, the material is also sufficient, occupies enough tomb C position, and in front of the monument there are several tomb beasts of the tomb of the high monks of the country of Wano.
Among these tombstones, it is the most shining one.
As if, it was to proudly announce to the whole world:
"This kid is hanging."
And on this conspicuous tombstone, a conspicuous name is written in conspicuous gilded letters:
"Momonosuke Kotsuki."
