Chapter 457 Kuzan’s experience of Wano Country (1)
The effect of caffeine can indeed make people awake, but the pain of being awake is often more terrifying.
After drinking a cup of coffee, Kuzan left the tavern.
It is true that he left the navy, but he did not abandon justice in his heart.
Coming to the country of Wano was an act of coincidence, but perhaps it was also inevitable.
The country of Wano, whether it is the "country of warriors" that has been closed off for eight hundred years, the "country of pirates" under Kaido's rule, or the "country of hope" that has become the most prosperous and developed country today, it can be said that it is Prestigious.
Over the years, Kuzan has heard countless praises for Wano, and even many naval soldiers have expressed praise for Wano.
Kuzan also wanted to visit Wano Country. He had been to Wano Country once, but he only scratched the surface and never really entered or understood this country.
Even on the way to the tavern, he was in a daze and barely paid attention to the situation around him.
But this time, he was determined to take a good look at the country.
He had a hunch that in Wano, he might be able to find the justice he hoped for.
Kuzan pushed open the door of the tavern, and a ray of sunlight fell into the tavern along the gap. For a moment, it was quite dazzling.
Opposite the tavern is a market.
Although the name is called Broken Town, the market in the town is still very prosperous, with the sounds of vendors shouting, customers bargaining, and children laughing and playing.
"Perfume of Alabasta..."
“Your snacks are already stale, they’re twenty bucks cheaper!”
Passing through the market is a group of red-tiled houses, which stand out among the gray and black buildings in the dilapidated town.
"In the beginning of human beings, their nature is good, their natures are similar, their habits are far apart..."
The sound of reading came from the room.
Kuzan couldn't help but cast his gaze - on the plaque with red letters on a white background, there were five characters "Broken Town Primary School" written on it.
Kuzan knew about school. As a child, he did not receive formal education. After joining the navy, he was able to receive basic education in the naval training camp run by Teacher Zefa.
At this time, he somewhat recalled his time as a recruit.
Kuzan walked towards the school involuntarily, but his way was blocked by walls and fences.
He guessed that perhaps to ensure safety, the entire school was surrounded by iron fences.
Of course, such a fence cannot really stop a strong man like Kuzan, but he stopped and stood quietly at the door listening to the loud sound of books in the school.
"So that the old will have their end, the strong will be useful, the young will be able to grow, and the widowed, widowed, lonely, alone, disabled and sick will all be provided for..."
"The Pirate King Gol D. Roger, a native of the East China Sea, arrived at the end of the Great Route 'Ravdru' in 1598, so he was called the Pirate King. One year after arriving at Ravdru, the Pirate King reported to the Navy Headquarters under the World Government Surrendering himself, this led to the big incident of the great pirate "Golden Lion" Shiji invading the navy headquarters "Marinvando"."
"Shortly afterwards, the Pirate King was executed by the navy in Rogge Town, East China Sea. His words before his death ushered in the era of great pirates. Classmates, that's it for this class. We have studied the life of the Pirate King. Tonight's The assignment is for everyone to write an argumentative essay to evaluate the person of Pirate King Gol D. Roger.”
"Teacher, let me give you a reminder. In Wano, there is also a famous figure who is closely related to the Pirate King. Students can combine these two people to make an evaluation..."
"Hunter, are you from outside?"
An old man on crutches walked up to Kuzan. He did not recognize this famous admiral and just regarded him as an ordinary outsider.
"Tell me about the country of Wano."
"What's there to talk about? What's the use of talking if you have to rely on your eyes?" The old man said to himself, "When General Sukiyaki was here, we were hungry all day long; then the big snake became General, Kaido became the Protector of the Country, and my two sons starved to death until Mr. Profik and General Hiyori got rid of Kaido and Orochi, so I only had ten good years... …Now, every town in Wano has a school, and my grandson goes to school there…”
"Young students, go to the Flower City and see it. Every foreigner who comes to Wano Country will be shocked by that place."
Leaving the ruined town and passing through the farmland and pastures on the outskirts, Kuzan arrived at the Capital of Flowers.
Different from the idyllic life in the countryside of Wano, the Flower City, the largest city in Wano, represents the most advanced city in Wano.
But it still retains some ancient shadows - the city gate.
"Admiral Aokiji..." The Guardsman soldier guarding the door recognized Kuzan. Sure enough, as Profik said, "identity" is not easy to obtain, but it is even harder to get rid of it.
"Master Profic has given instructions, you can enter directly."
In principle, every visitor entering Wano must register his or her identity to prevent spies or criminals from appearing. Of course, the strong always have privileges, and there is no need to register Kuzan’s identity.
His ability is so conspicuous that he will be recognized at a glance if he is involved in an incident.
Within the castle, Wano’s traditional architecture intersects with new-style “modern” architecture.
It is said that Profic has promoted a building structure called "reinforced concrete" in Wano in recent years, causing many countries to adopt this architectural style as a new trend.
On both sides of the road, store signboards are colorful, and the people in the stream are dressed in different costumes. Some are traditional costumes of Wano Country, and some are tourists from overseas. You can even see fish people, fur people, long-hand people, etc. Rare races can be seen, and from time to time the sounds of children laughing and playing can be heard.
Some of them were strolling leisurely, and some looked in a hurry, but they were all filled with happiness.
"Sir, let's have some sukiyaki!"
Vendors pushing carts on the roadside shouted loudly.
"Sukiyaki?"
This strange name attracted Kuzan's attention. If he remembered correctly, the name of the former general of Wano Country was Kozuki Sukiyaki.
"Boss, give me one."
He thought it would be good to try some Wano cuisine.
"Boss, why is it called Sukiyaki?"
Kuzan asked while eating.
Although the name is a bit strange, judging from the taste alone, the texture of sukiyaki is indeed top-notch. After relinquishing his status as a naval admiral, Kuzan temporarily immersed himself in the pleasure of delicious food.
After all, as a navy, what you eat during the execution of missions is mostly collective food provided by warships and navy canteens. The taste is not bad, but it inevitably has the same shortcomings.
The shopkeeper was very patient and told the story. Perhaps he felt that telling stories to customers who paid money was part of the shopkeeper's job.
"This starts with the former general's sukiyaki..."
