Chapter 286 The Kang family and Sukiyaki
Chapter 286 The Kang family and Sukiyaki
After a hurried visit to Denjiro, Profic and others did not stay long, but immediately returned to Orikasa Village. The Shuangyue Kang family naturally went with them.
Arriving at Mitsuki Sukiyaki's house in Nougasa Village, Profik immediately saw Star and Morana waiting in full formation, as well as Mitsuki Sukiyaki being tied up.
"Brother," Star said, pointing to the sukiyaki, "this guy is dishonest and tried to escape several times, so we tied him up."
"I heard that 'Only a thousand days can make a thief, but there is no thousand days to prevent a thief'," Morana glanced at Shuangyue Kang's house and whispered to Profik, "We were targeted by thieves and fought with each other several times. He tried to sneak into the house, but I couldn't catch him."
thief?
Thieves are not uncommon in Wano, and anyone can become a thief if there is no food. The problem is, it will be difficult to deal with a thief that even Morana can't catch up with. Although it is said that Morana needs to "look after the house" and dare not stay too far away, this is enough to show that this "thief" is not an ordinary person.
"General?"
"Hakudai Daimyo?"
On the other side, Kozuki Sukiyaki and Shigetsuki Yasujia met and recognized each other at a glance.
When old friends met, both of them were filled with emotion.
Sukiyaki seemed very happy to see his old friend. Although he lives in seclusion here, he is not completely "indifferent" to state affairs. He is aware of the situation in the outside world. He knew about the rebellion of daimyo and samurai from various places against Orochi's rule, and he once had a glimmer of hope. However, later, all the rebellions in various places were suppressed, and the daimyo of several other regions who were leaders were also executed one by one, but there was no news about the Shigetsuki Yasu family.
He originally thought that the Kang family was also dead. Now that we meet again, we are naturally overjoyed. Kozuki Sukiyaki and the Shigetsuki Yasu family have a very good relationship, and even Kozuki Oden often received guidance from the Yasu family before.
After the joy, comes guilt. Although Kozuki Sukiyaki is cowardly, incompetent, and irresponsible, he has not completely lost his sense of shame. He knows very well that Wano Country has been stolen, and as a general, he should bear the main responsibility. The beginning of Wano Country being stolen was because his general was captured and imprisoned. Heotan Orochi also obtained the position of General of Wano Country under the name of Mitsuki Sukiyaki.
When he thought of this, he felt a sense of regret for being sorry for his old friend. As a general, it is always a shame to be unable to protect the country, and it is also a shame to survive in this world. Because of this, both now and in the original work, he uses the mask of a tengu to hide his true appearance.
The Kang family was very surprised, but also a little disappointed. He originally thought that Kozuki Sukiyaki was dead, that's why he never showed up. Unexpectedly, he was still alive. Where was the sukiyaki when Kaido and Orochi invaded? Where was the sukiyaki when Oden was attacking Kaido? When daimyo and samurai elsewhere rose up in resistance, where was sukiyaki?
Why not stand up, raise your arms, and lead everyone to resist the rule of Orochi and Kaido?
But he didn't say anything in the end. The power of Orochi and Kaido was far superior to the local power of Wano Country. Whether Sukiyaki lives in seclusion or chooses to resist, the difference is really not too big. In this way, you can still survive, which is not a bad thing.
He also looked away. As long as he was alive, it was a good thing.
However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered what he had communicated with Profik on the way to Bili Village. He remembered that Profik had told him at that time that generals, daimyo, samurai, and nobles were all a bunch of unreliable guys after all. There may be a few good people among them, but as time goes by and the number increases, unreliable guys will become the majority.
In particular, in the final analysis, these people are safeguarding their own class interests, not the national interests of Wano, let alone the interests of the people of Wano. In critical moments, they will not hesitate to abandon the country and people and choose to preserve themselves.
At that time, the Shuoyue Kang family did a lot to protect the image of the Kouzuki clan. He firmly believes that the Kozuki clan has samurai ethics, samurai honor, samurai dignity, loves the country of peace, and dares to take responsibility. Maybe they are lacking in force and ability, but they are definitely not greedy for life and fear of death. When trouble comes, Abandoning the country, only caring about their own lives, hiding in the corner and watching others sacrifice.
But now it seems that what Profik said is not unreasonable... It seems that even if the Kozuki clan successfully returns to the country this time, Wano may still be in danger at any time if there are any unreliable generals in the future.
The look in his eyes towards Sukiyaki became complicated, and he had already made up his mind.
"I didn't expect you to be alive, General."
"I didn't expect that you are still alive..." Sukiyaki only then remembered to ask the Kang family for help, "Quickly untie the rope from my body."
Shuangyue Kangjia was stunned, and he subconsciously looked at Profik. After seeing that he didn't object, he untied the rope from Sukiyaki.
"These guys," Sukiyaki pointed at Morana and Profik, "they want to destroy the country of Wano..."
But Shigetsuki Yasuya was not in a hurry to speak. He listened patiently to Sukiyaki's words, and then said to Sukiyaki with a serious look: "General, I have something to say to you."
The two of them walked into Sukiyaki's secluded hut one after another.
Profik and others did not follow. The two old friends had some "intimate words" so that they would not follow shamelessly. Moreover, Profik also had to communicate with Morana and Statton to unify the "work progress".
Soon, the sound of quarreling between Shigetsuki Yasujia and Mitsuzuki Sukiyaki could be heard in the house.
"Kang family!" Sukiyaki roared angrily and incredulously, "Are you blinded by lard? You actually believe this kind of fallacy?!"
How could such a daimyo, who was so loyal to the Kozuki clan and Wano, rebel and surrender to the enemy and side with Profik?
"Sukiyaki," the Kang family no longer cared about whether the general was a general or not, and began to call Sukiyaki by his name, "Wano Country has come to this day, and I am lucky to be able to save this country. I am no longer white. Mai Daimyo, you are no longer a general of Wano Country, so why should you care about those external things? "
"I have been living among the people for these years and have seen too many tragedies. Countless people starve to death in front of my eyes... I have lost everything long ago, and now I just want to see the people of this country have enough food and clothing."
"Profic's idea... apart from being detrimental to nobles like the 'shogun' and 'daimyo', it has real benefits for this country! Since we already have nothing, why should we be afraid of it?!"
