Chapter 519: The Supreme Bandage?

~7 min read 1,321 words

As for the extent to which she likes her profession?

This can be known from the plot where she faced Kurozumi Orochi.

Generally, when facing the murderer of one's father, anyone with a normal brain would choose to stand up and stab the other person a few times.

Even if they were unable to do so for a moment, or couldn't find an opportunity,

they would still harbor thoughts of revenge, silently lurking in the shadows, accumulating strength, and looking for an opportunity;

but Kozuki Hiyori's mind was constantly thinking about singing and dancing.

When she arrived before Kurozumi Orochi, she didn't think about avenging her father,

nor did she think about eliminating the harm for the people of Wano Country who were suffering under oppression,

but suddenly thought of playing music and telling the other person the story of her father, Kozuki Oden.

From this, it is evident that Kozuki Hiyori's love for her profession has reached the point of obsession,

and in the face of this, the hatred of a father's murder and the usurpation of the throne had become insignificant.

Finally, when she was tearful from telling the story,

Kurozumi Orochi rose again, preparing to take her to the Western Heaven. At this moment, even someone without the strength to truss a chicken,

would more or less choose to resist when facing their father's murderer.

Even as a weak woman without the strength to resist, according to the thinking of a normal person,

if you can't beat them, you can still make a strategic retreat, but Kozuki Hiyori chose to close her eyes,

as if hoping Kurozumi Orochi would be quick and give her a swift end.

Back then, after Kozuki Oden took a Thunder Bagua from Teacher Kaido,

he also chose to compromise, not resist, and entered the boiling oil pot.

Looking at it this way, it's clear that Kozuki Hiyori is his biological daughter.

Afterward, after being saved by the loyal Denjiro, Kozuki Hiyori displayed her usual,

fine tradition of throwing herself at men when in trouble, and cuddled with Denjiro again.

Finally, the battle to defeat Kaido ended, and Kozuki Hiyori staged an even more shameless act,

which was to rewrite the experience of her being helpless and only able to rage impotently in the face of Kurozumi Orochi.

The history teacher himself did not visit every battlefield to observe everyone's story,

so the stories on the battlefield were all told to him by Momonosuke, the Nine Red Scabbards, and others.

Referring to the fact that only she and Denjiro knew about the incident with Kozuki Hiyori and Kurozumi Orochi, it is not hard to see,

that this experience was most likely told to the history teacher by herself.

Originally, facing Kurozumi Orochi and Kaido, she was crying and could only rage impotently,

but she directly modified herself into a heroine who was not inferior to any man.

Additionally, when facing Kurozumi Orochi, she also said, "The hotter the fire burns, the more authentic the charcoal is."

Although this sentence used a pun to correspond to "The more Oden is boiled, the more flavorful it becomes" (The more charcoal is burned, the hotter the fire),

"The more Oden is boiled, the more flavorful it becomes" was said by Oden himself when he entered the oil pot,

and this sentence was said before his death to show his heroic side,

which is clearly a sentence with a positive connotation,

but "The hotter the fire burns, the more authentic the charcoal is" is clearly derogatory.

This sentence would be fine if said by anyone else,

but Kozuki Hiyori is the least qualified to say it,

as a princess of a fallen nation, she had been busy singing and dancing for twenty years,

and hadn't even learned the simple skill of holding a kitchen knife.

Generally, a princess of a fallen nation would possess the three most basic qualities of kindness, strength, and courage,

to serve as advantages to attract attention and unite people,

such as Princess Vivi of Alabasta, who fought against Crocodile.

But Kozuki Hiyori never had anything worth singing and weeping about from beginning to end.

Of course, some might say that Kozuki Hiyori's character was modified by Teacher Oda,

and that she was still very elegant and eye-catching when she defied power and roared at Kurozumi Orochi in the early stages,

but from the subsequent developments, we know that this was just something she and Denjiro, the other,

and only person in the know, had agreed upon, so it is not hard to conclude,

that the image of a chaste woman she displayed before Kurozumi Orochi was all an act.

For 20 years, having wandered among countless men, the most powerful skill she learned was acting,

for example, she used acting to swindle money from wealthy old men,

and as a pitiful girl, she would just say a few words to the old men,

and these old men would immediately hand over all their money to her, even if it meant bankruptcy.

At this time, Kozuki Hiyori's image was that of a pitiful,

weak girl from a brothel who had no choice but to end up in a place of flowers and willows, making people feel pity.

But when she achieved her goal and squeezed the old men dry, she began to mock them unscrupulously.

At this time, Kozuki Hiyori, smoking a pipe and puffing clouds, was like a big sister.

When Kurozumi Orochi was infatuated with the geisha disguised by Robin,

Kozuki Hiyori just acted spoiled and said a few words to him, and Orochi immediately pushed Robin away,

and took her into his arms; at this time, she became a cute and naive young girl who liked to compete for favor.

Afterward, when she encountered danger and immediately threw herself into Zoro's arms,

She then turned back into the infatuated, love-at-first-sight, naive girl in a romance story.

Afterward, when she proposed to exchange Enma for Shusui with Zoro,

she suddenly became serious again.

Through these simple examples, it can be concluded that Kozuki Hiyori, in different situations,

and when facing different men, has her own unique way of dealing with them.

With the end of the Wano Country arc, the Zhang Jies discovered that the character of Kozuki Hiyori was truly dispensable,

and her only contribution was to send Kozuki Oden's sword to Zoro through an exchange.

Although it is said that Zoro eventually became a sword-wielding jinchuriki because of Enma, this was also something that couldn't be helped,

after all, Kozuki Oden is a person who needs to be praised at all times.

Another contribution Kozuki Hiyori likely had was helping the Nine Red Scabbards heal their wounds.

Although the identity of that black shadow at the time was not revealed until the end of the Wano Country arc,

this person was almost certainly Kozuki Hiyori.

But such a contribution could have been made by anyone else without any problems,

especially the second eerie scene of bandaging.

This scene would clearly have been more convincing if done by someone else rather than Kozuki Hiyori.

Because the Nine Red Scabbards were beaten bloody and unconscious by Kaido,

in this situation, ordinary doctors would not be able to help them treat their injuries,

let alone Kozuki Hiyori, who had no understanding of medical skills and had devoted all her energy to singing and dancing.

But strangely, after the Nine Red Scabbards were bandaged, they immediately recovered to full status in less than two minutes.

If a divine doctor like Law, who possesses the Op-Op Fruit, had taken action here,

it would clearly have been more convincing than Kozuki Hiyori, who only knew how to sing and dance.

Or perhaps, the bandages Kozuki Hiyori put on the Nine Red Scabbards were the same as the Supreme Grade swords,

standing above countless bandages, a Supreme Grade Bandage with unimaginable healing effects? ===== CHAPTER 520 =====
