Chapter 300: The Impending Great War

Among Uchiha Feiyu's many concubines, Momousagi is not the most beautiful, but she is definitely the one with the highest status and the greatest strength. The moment she became a female Marine Admiral, the Marine and the World Government publicized her, so almost the entire One Piece World knew of this beautiful female Admiral.

Even in the isolated Wano Country, those with some status and standing were aware of this Admiral Momousagi, and this naturally included Kozuki Hiyori.

Especially the terrifying scene where Momousagi and Kaido fought for several days, with two giant dragons dancing and spitting in the air, staining the sky with blood, left a deep impression on many people in Wano Country.

Yet now, facing Uchiha Feiyu's undisguised words, this female Marine Admiral showed a willingness to be humiliated, even obsessively and fanatically cleaning Uchiha Feiyu's toes, making tsk-tsk sounds.

"I... I understand..."

Kozuki Hiyori made a sound that seemed like fear, but Uchiha Feiyu knew very well that this was not just fear; or rather, in the current Kozuki Hiyori's heart, dread was only a small part of her psychology, and more of it was likely anger and hatred—who told Uchiha Feiyu to always make fun of her old man?

Moreover, judging from Uchiha Feiyu's behavior, he did not look like a wise ruler at all; on the contrary, he treated Wano Country entirely as a colony, and even looked down upon the title of Shogun of Wano Country.

"Since you understand, that's good. Then why don't you hurry up and serve me? Or do you want to be like them?"

A playful smile appeared on the corner of Uchiha Feiyu's mouth, and at the same time, he flicked his finger with a light force, shooting a faint blood-colored light into the body of Yamato, who was still lying on the ground, and Yamato's entire body suddenly stiffened.

The white fur that had grown out slowly disappeared, her protruding mouth slowly retracted, and the sharp fangs at the corners of her mouth also changed back; very quickly, she transformed from her half-beast form back to her original appearance.

As Uchiha Feiyu's cultivation grew deeper day by day, the marvelous uses of his Dharma Power became more and more numerous; just a wisp of Blood Scripture Dharma Power could control Yamato's body through her blood, and even force her transformed state back to her original form.

Now Yamato was completely limp on the ground, without a shred of strength in her body, and even moving a finger was a luxury; however, at the same time, the bones that had been broken by Uchiha Feiyu and her damaged internal organs were rapidly recovering, returning to their peak state in just a few minutes.

Of course, even though her injuries had recovered, she still had no strength at all, like a pile of mud, and could only lie on the floor, watching Kozuki Hiyori, who looked calm on the surface but was gritting her teeth inside, slowly walk up.

There was no help for it; when facing Kurozumi Orochi, Kozuki Hiyori could still be duplicitous, but facing a monster like Uchiha Feiyu who possessed the ability to manipulate human hearts, Kozuki Hiyori could think of no other way besides compromising or dying outright.

Even if her performance showed the slightest resistance, she would probably be turned into a puppet by this smiling man before her! Compared to having her body and mind completely fall and becoming an object for this man, losing her physical purity was no longer a big deal.

As for dying to end it all... no matter what, while Kozuki Momonosuke had not yet appeared, Kozuki Hiyori was the last orphan of the Kozuki Clan, and even if she suffered every humiliation, she would try her best to find a way to survive.

Under Uchiha Feiyu's direct gaze, Kozuki Hiyori pulled open the sleeves of her kimono, then walked past the pile of clothes on the floor, arrived in front of Uchiha Feiyu, and said with a trembling voice: "Please... please have mercy, my lord..."

The morning sunlight shone into the Ten-shukaku, and Kozuki Hiyori's body trembled slightly as she slowly opened her eyes.

"Has he... already left?"

Feeling her entire body aching incessantly, this number one beauty of Wano Country sighed, pulled the quilt over herself, and her expression was slightly dazed.

Last night, she had experienced the pleasure that Dual Cultivation could bring; even if she was only half-reluctant on the surface at first, and actually filled with resentment in her heart, by the end, she had completely drowned in it, offering up everything a woman could offer.

However, Uchiha Feiyu had not done anything to her mind, so the current Kozuki Hiyori fell into a state of self-loathing; the moment she thought of her performance in the latter half of yesterday, she had the urge to die.

The other party was the enemy who killed Denjiro! Why was she completely unable to control herself! "Ugh, huh!? Where is this..."

Just then, the sound from beside her made Kozuki Hiyori turn her head, and she happened to see Yamato, who had just finished yawning, with her oni horns and somewhat messy white hair.

This former female Pirate was dazed for a moment, but quickly came to her senses, remembered everything that happened yesterday, and the expression on her face became somewhat annoyed: "Damn it... I was originally prepared to ambush that guy, who knew I would actually completely forget about this!"

Kozuki Hiyori curled her lips; yesterday, Yamato was also one of those who served Uchiha Feiyu, and although it was a bit forced at first, by the end, the performance of this oni girl drowning in it was no better than her own.

Thinking of how this oni girl was grabbed by the horns on her head by the other party yesterday and lay on the ground barking like a little dog, Kozuki Hiyori thought it would be a miracle if she could remember anything at that time.

"Lord Feiyu, you didn't seem to let that Oiran and Yamato become our sisters."

The "big" beauty Black Maria, who was over eight meters tall, had a doting expression on her face as she massaged Uchiha Feiyu, who was lying on her lap, and asked with some confusion.

"Hmm, it's a little game! Honestly, watching these two women with different personalities who have a grudge against me compromise, or be completely forced despite their stubborn resistance, and finally drown in it—that expression is still very interesting."

Kozuki Hiyori was undoubtedly the kind of woman who would compromise, while Yamato was the kind of woman who would resist stubbornly, but in the end, these two women only ended up sticking out their tongues, rolling their eyes, and gesturing with their fingers yesterday.

"My lord, you really have a wicked sense of humor! I imagine that Oiran has no idea that you knew her true identity all along! I can already imagine her miserable appearance, weeping in her heart while still trying her best to serve you!"

"And that girl Yamato, who thinks she's a man every day, not only thinks she's Kozuki Oden, but also wants everyone to call her 'young master'... Hee hee, I wonder if she'll still think she's a man when she's crying?"

Uchiha Feiyu smacked his lips; indeed, those two women gave him an unusual feeling yesterday, but he quickly reined in his thoughts and stretched: "Hehe, there's still a long time left. I'd like to see how long these two chicks can hold out. Even if I didn't mess with their minds, the physical pleasure alone will slowly make people sink, right? Alright, never mind these trifles. Have you finished the statistics for the situation in Wano Country?"

"Rest assured, my lord. The current population of Wano Country is about 1 million or so—20-something years ago, there should have been over 5 million people, but after Kurozumi Orochi's mess, the ordinary people of Wano Country now have almost all died due to various pollution and starvation."

"Tsk... although I know this world is a world of rot, and Wano Country's culture is very perverted, I didn't expect that even when it rotted to this extent, these Wano Country civilians still wouldn't resist!"

Uchiha Feiyu shook his head. You have to know that in 20 years, Wano Country had starved to death nearly 60% to 70% of its population. In any normal country, it would have probably sparked a peasant uprising long ago!

Not to mention a country like China, where peasant uprisings spanned the entire feudal era; even in the countries of the One Piece World, generally speaking, if 20% or 30% of the people died, the commoners below would definitely have overthrown the rulers. Seeing the remaining commoners living so numbly after 60% to 70% of the population had died really opened Uchiha Feiyu's eyes.

But thinking about it carefully, the endurance of the commoners in the One Piece World is inherently much stronger than that of humans in ordinary worlds, and Wano Country... even on the normal Earth, the prototype country of Wano Country is known for its endurance, and even has a feudal ruler that has lasted for ten thousand generations—purely from this aspect, even China, as its cultural source, cannot compare to it.

After all, what we emphasize here is "Are kings and nobles born with high status?", not some divine lineage or the idea that the Emperor is a descendant of some god.

Therefore, in a rotten world like One Piece, it is not surprising that such a bizarre place as Wano Country would appear.

"Actually, there were some resistances... but they were basically samurai of Wano Country, not civilians, and the objects of their resistance were all Lord Kaido. Instead, these people of Wano Country had no thoughts of opposing Kurozumi Orochi, who is weak in strength and is the one truly poisoning all of Wano Country."

"Hee hee, it's funny when you think about it, as if the title of Shogun of Wano Country has some power. Those samurai clearly couldn't stand the current state of Wano Country, yet they didn't dare to go after Kurozumi Orochi, who is so much weaker than Lord Kaido, and instead ran to the Beast Pirates one by one to throw their lives away."

Black Maria said unhurriedly, a mocking smile on her face: "Perhaps that's the reason why that Kurozumi Orochi couldn't see himself clearly in the end! He really thought he was someone. Let alone compared to you, Lord Feiyu, even compared to Kaido, this guy is just a clown!"

Uchiha Feiyu nodded slightly. Come to think of it, Kurozumi Orochi never thought about governing Wano Country well from the very beginning.

Even after becoming the Shogun of Wano Country, he remained obsessed with the hatred of his original Kurozumi Clan, and was single-mindedly focused on taking revenge on the people of Wano Country—to be honest, in this situation, the fact that this guy was able to be the Shogun of Wano Country for 20 years without being hacked to death just goes to show that these people in Wano Country are seriously ill.

"But the number of people is still too small... tsk, with such a small population, I don't know when it will be able to recover."

Uchiha Feiyu sighed and said. Of course, he wasn't unhappy because the population of Wano Country was sparse, he just felt that the number of people was too small, so even a Blood Sacrifice wouldn't be of much help to him, which is why he sighed a little.

If Wano Country still had 5 or 6 million people, Uchiha Feiyu could immediately find a way to create conflict and directly cut the population of Wano Country in half.

Of course, there is another reason why he didn't do this, and that is that the current Uchiha Feiyu doesn't have much need for Qi and Blood and souls—or rather, his needs are too great; he doesn't even look at Qi and Blood and souls of less than a million people anymore.

"In Wano Country's current state, it will probably take more than ten years to fully recover!"

"My lord, do you need these people of Wano Country to do anything?"

Regarding Black Maria's question, Uchiha Feiyu just shook his head: "There's no great need. You all know the cultivation technique I practice; these people in Wano Country can be considered decent materials."

"But it's no big deal... the World Government's plan is already well underway. Before long, this world will be plunged into the flames of war. When that time comes, getting Qi and Blood and souls will be an easy task."

Not to mention anything else, just the World Government developing the New World alone would result in countless deaths—the New World is a domain belonging to pirates. Most of the countries here are not member states of the World Government. The blood and sacrifice the World Government would need to pay to take the New World into its pocket can be imagined.

As for sending powerful top-tier combatants, using super weapons to destroy the enemy, or directly using the momentum of the World Government to accept the surrender of these New World countries, the leaders of the World Government, the Five Elders, have not considered it.

Not only because they don't care about sacrifice, but also because the more people who die, the more it will please Uchiha Feiyu.

"War, huh..."

A hint of fanaticism flashed through Black Maria's originally doting smile: "Lord Feiyu, please let me participate too! This is the first time I've encountered a world-level war!"

As one of the Flying Six of the Beast Pirates, Black Maria was clearly influenced quite a bit by Kaido; at least in her attitude toward war, this great beauty had a sense of fanaticism.

"You want to participate too? However, I actually hope you can help me maintain the rule of Wano Country. The Pluton exists beneath this country, and finding it is no easy task; it is necessary to utilize the power of the entire country to do so."

Hearing Uchiha Feiyu's words, Black Maria chuckled: "My lord, these two things do not conflict. Why can't becoming the ruler of Wano Country and participating in the war happen together?"

"Even if Wano Country is already in a bad state now, my lord, do not forget that this was once the Land of Samurai, and it is also the base of the Beasts Pirates; there has never been a shortage of desperadoes here!"
