Chapter 7 The Prison Scroll
Chapter 7 The Prison Scroll
Kozuki Sukiyaki originally wanted to stop Luo Ji, but after hearing his granddaughter's name, he stopped trembling.
Meanwhile, the portrait puppet Kikunojo quickly took down the second-generation Kitetsu and handed it to Ragi.
Luo Ji didn't even draw out the second-generation Kitetsu to test the demon sword; he simply put it into the storage scroll.
"Where is Hiyori? How is she doing? Who exactly are you? An outsider couldn't possibly know so much information."
Kozuki Sukiyaki asked through gritted teeth, "Leaving aside the fact that he hid in Amigasa Village, no one knows that he also hid Enma and Ame no Habakiri."
He remained in hiding for so many years, yet he still couldn't find the whereabouts of Hiyori and some of his retainers.
However, this stranger seemed to know everything.
This terrified him, as if he had seen a ghost.
"You went into hiding as a swordsmith, while your granddaughter went into hiding as a courtesan."
"Back then, Kozuki Oden performed a shameful dance in the Flower Capital for five years."
"Tsk tsk, your Kozuki family just loves to play around."
Inside the secret room of Kozuki Sukiyaki, Luo Ji and the puppet Kikunojo stuffed all the swords they liked into another storage scroll.
This shameless attitude, just like buying goods, infuriated Sukiyaki so much that her eyebrows twitched and her mouth twitched, and a surge of anger welled up within her.
"The courtesan..."
Kozuki Sukiyaki clenched her fists, never expecting that the princess of the Kozuki family would stoop to such a lowly geisha.
His hand holding the knife was trembling.
Is the heavens punishing the Kozuki clan?
Seventy or eighty years ago, the Kozuki family was on the verge of extinction and the Kurozumi family seized the position of shogun. At that time, Kozuki Sukiyaki was born as the only son of the family, and he was fortunate enough to save the Kozuki lineage.
More than fifty years ago, Kozuki Sukiyaki also had only one son, Kozuki Oden.
Unfortunately, Oden was a restless fellow, causing quite a stir in Wano Country.
Later, he even went to sea and became a pirate.
If Oden hadn't had a wife and children in the open sea, Sukiyaki might have seen the Kozuki clan die out.
However, Wano Country still suffered a great calamity, with the position of Shogun being successfully usurped by the Kurozumi family and the Beasts Pirates invading.
Now that Oden is dead, Momonosuke's whereabouts are unknown.
This left the old man, who was selling sukiyaki, in utter despair.
Perhaps the Kozuki family lineage will truly be severed with them.

"These are the tools you use to inscribe historical texts?"
Luo Ji found some tools that Kozuki Sukiyaki had treasured. Some of the engraving knives were very heavy and felt quite hard.
Perhaps these are the tools used to process sea stone products or to inscribe historical texts.
"I'll teach you the stonemasonry skills of the Kozuki family, and in return, you help me find and rescue Hiyori..."
Kozuki Sukiyaki pleaded weakly, still somewhat unable to accept the truth that his granddaughter was a courtesan.
"Just teach me how to open the sea stone handcuffs."
Luo Ji smiled faintly; this was the second skill he had prepared to abduct Yamato.
Of course, if his Ryuo Haki is enough to unlock Yamato's Seastone Bomb Handcuffs, this unlocking skill is a backup plan.
However, once you learn this skill, it will be a very good skill, whether for saving yourself or saving others.
"Go and save Hiyori first!"
"Old man, you have no right to negotiate with me."
However, I'm also going to the Flower Capital, and I'll take you to see your granddaughter while I'm there!
Luo Ji smiled indifferently. He was going to the City of Flowers to take away the red historical text from the underground secret chamber.
Of course, we still need to gather some information now.
Let's see if the Beasts Pirates have started their Great Expedition yet.
Otherwise, with the Beasts Pirates in charge of Wano Country, Luo Ji certainly wouldn't want to cause trouble.
Only after the Beasts Pirates leave will he have a chance to infiltrate the Shogun's mansion and then go to Onigashima to kidnap Yamato.
"you!!"
Just as Kozuki Sukiyaki was about to say something, Luo Ji launched an attack on him.
In the brief battle, Kozuki Sukiyaki's sword, Kabutsu, was once again knocked away by Luo Ji, and Kozuki Sukiyaki himself was kicked over by Luo Ji.
"Perfect timing to test the effects of my scroll prison."
Luo Ji summoned a scroll depicting a prison scene and threw Kozuki Sukiyaki into it.
This idea was inspired by Montorre's library prison, which could imprison living beings.
Montor also has a trick called Book World, which can trap enemies in the story world.
Meanwhile, Luo Ji's scroll world is under development and being improved.
Once you have a development direction, you just need to put in the effort to try it out.
"Where am I...?"
Amidst Kozuki Sukiyaki's terrified cries, the prison scroll rolled up, shrank, and flew back to Luo Ji's front.
"Look at reality now, old man!"
Luo Ji put the small scroll into the scroll belt on his waist.
"Just loot and leave!"
Luo Ji released the other portrait puppets to conduct a thorough sweep of the Kozuki Sukiyaki's large study and secret room, ensuring that nothing of value was left behind.
However, it must be said that Kozuki Sukiyaki, who ended up in Amigasa Village with nothing to eat or wear, really had nothing but a few knives.
Luo Ji retrieved his spoils and the portrait puppet, and returned to Bianli Village in high spirits.
This time, I obtained three great swords: Enma, Ame no Habakiri, and Nidai Kitetsu.
There is also a fine-quality Pouchet, as well as some sea stone and historical text processing tools.
The rewards from this trip could be very substantial.
Back at Xiaoyu's house, Luo Ji quickly put away the portrait clone and spent an ordinary evening with Xiaoyu.
the next day.
Luo Ji then took Xiao Yu and Komachiyo and left Amigasa Village, heading towards Udon Ward.
Luo Ji is now going to find out the whereabouts of the Beasts Pirates.
Furthermore, to get from Kuri Ward to Hana no Tochi, you either have to pass through Udon Ward or Nozomi Ward.
It just so happens that the village of Bianli is right next to the Rabbit Bowl area.
Luo Ji led Xiao Yu along the beach toward Rabbit Bowl.
"Hahaha! Your cheat ability is really strong, I'm not afraid of seawater!!"
Amid Xiaoyu's envious gaze, Luo Ji laughed heartily and swam happily at the beach.
【Xing Shang】The cheat code truly removed the curse from the three Devil Fruit abilities, turning them into a pure rule-based ability, which was then integrated into Luo Ji's body.
"Why isn't Brother Luo Ji, this sorcerer, afraid of seawater?"
After eating a strange and unpalatable fruit, Xiaoyu gained the ability to make dumplings, but she also became a landlubber who was afraid of seawater.
"From now on, don't call them sorcerers, call them ability users."
In a cheerful mood, Luo Ji patted Xiao Yu's head and laughed.
After having fun along the way, the two arrived at Udon district, where Komachiyo was thrown into the scroll world by Ragi.
As a production area for the sea stone mine, Tuwan is much more prosperous than Jiuli.
When Luo Ji entered the town of Tokage in Udon, he was targeted by the town's yakuza warriors because of his distinctive clothing.
Anyone who dares not wear the traditional clothing of Wano Country, nor the uniform of the Beasts Pirates, must be an outsider.
Such a suspicious fellow must be taught a lesson and driven away.
Several gangsters carrying knives approached Luo Ji and his companion with menacing expressions.
"You brat! Where are you from? Do you know that not wearing your hair in a topknot and not wearing Wano Country clothing is a grave offense!"
A blond-haired samurai with a long sword at his waist, wearing a brownish-purple kimono, glared fiercely at Luo Ji and his companion.
Looking at the two people with their delicate skin, he seemed to see two lambs, full of aggression.
