Chapter 24 - Ch 24: Wano Country

Ayaan quickly began searching for other members of the Spade Pirates on the beach and in the pirate ship.

In the Spade Pirates, Ayaan's physical strength is second only to Ace. And because he has chakra, he is less weakened by the sea water, so he is the first one to get up.

After Ace was pulled out of the sea by Ayaan, he immediately recovered completely. Most of the other members of the Spade Pirates were in the cabin and were not seriously injured.

Of course, exhaustion and weakness are inevitable.

"By the way, where is this place?" After everyone gathered together, a somewhat frustrated Deuce asked.

Ayaan looked around, especially the coast where they were. As long as he walked a few dozen meters towards the sea, he could see endless rushing currents. The entire island seemed to be held up in the sky by the currents.

This feature is too obvious. Ayaan did not expect that the Spade Pirates had arrived here before seeing Red Hair.

"This should be the country of Wano, the base of the legendary Beasts Pirates."

"Wano Country?"

"The base of the Beasts Pirates?"

The members of the Spade Pirates looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't expect that they didn't find Red Hair and Whitebeard, but instead came to the Beasts Pirates.

"So, that guy Kaido of Beasts is here too? Very good, before dealing with Whitebeard, let's practice on Kaido first." Ace pressed his hat and made a heroic declaration.

Ayaan had long been unable to complain about Ace's overflowing confidence, but fortunately, according to the original work, Kaido should have led his big bosses out on an expedition. Therefore, there is no need to worry about Kaido giving Ace a break from his king addiction.

In fact, Ace couldn't even beat Yamato. Don't forget, Yamato fought him to a draw even with seastone handcuffs!

Yamato's talent is not necessarily stronger than Ace's. The biggest gap between the two of them lies in knowledge and experience.

After all, Yamato was beaten up by his father every day, and although Ace was also beaten up badly by his grandfather Garp, Garp at least knew his severity and never really used his full strength in front of him.

However, just as they were chatting here, a sound was heard in the distance. A group of guys with clothes and appearance quite characteristic of Wano Country had come here to check it out.

Ayaan took a quick look and found that these people's clothes were tattered and their faces were pale. Although they were holding some tattered things like hoes and sticks, their faces were full of panic.

"Pirates, they are pirates!"

"What are the pirates doing here? Are they planning to rob us?"

"I won't let you succeed, damn pirates!"

Ayaan rolled his eyes helplessly. Come on, you look so poor, what can we rob? Ragged clothes, rags, or the straw on your bed?

"This is so troublesome, Ace, just let them calm down."

After hearing Ayaan's complaints, Ace reached up to push up his cowboy hat and a smile appeared on his face.

"Don't worry!"

A strong aura suddenly emanated from him and pressed down on these ordinary villagers. Without a doubt, all the villagers rolled their eyes and fainted.

"Use the Conqueror's Haki directly? Isn't that a bit of an overreaction?" Ayaan complained. His original intention was to let Ace use the ability of his Flame-Flame Fruit to scare the villagers.

"That's the most convenient, isn't it?" Ace said with a smile. "But, these villagers look like they're having a pretty bad time."

Ayaan nodded slightly. The people in Wano Country were not living a bad life, but a miserable one.

In the New World, most of the territories have been divided up by the Four Emperors, and among these territories, Kaido's subordinates have the hardest life.

In Charlotte Linlin's territory, although they had to pay soul tax, at least they lived a good life. Not to mention Whitebeard and Red Hair, the civilians there probably lived better than most people in the pirate world.

Only Kaido is truly warmonger and doesn't care about so-called sustainable development at all. If it weren't for the tenacious vitality of the people in the pirate world, most of the civilians in Wano Country would probably have died.

"Let's go wake them up first and ask for information. I think they should be calm this time."

...…

In a shabby little village, the old and frail chief of Bianli Village was telling Ace about their miserable experiences with a bitter face. It was so sad and moving to tears, and it was a very miserable story.

"So, as long as Kaido is killed, Wano Country will return to its original state, right?"

After listening to the long, incoherent words of the village chief, who might even have some dementia, Ace interrupted impatiently.

"Uh... Kaido, no, no... There is no way to defeat him even with so many samurai..." The village chief shook his head blankly.

Ace naturally didn't care much about the fear of the village chief, but he didn't argue with the village chief. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Then let's kill that guy called Kurozumi Orochi. It's because of him that Wano Country is like this."

"General Kurozumi Orochi? No! Wano Country cannot be without a general!" The village chief began to shake his head violently again.

Ayaan rolled his eyes. What's the point of saying that Wano Country cannot be without a general? It's obvious that this old man has been brainwashed and has become stupid.

Seeing the village chief like this, Ace did not mention killing Kurozumi Orochi anymore. To put it bluntly, the people of Wano Country were unwilling to kill Kurozumi Orochi. Why would he, a pirate from outside, care about that?

However, looking at the villagers' pale and thin faces and weak breath, Ace still felt a little reluctant, "Ayaan, how much food do we have on our ship?"

Ayaan thought for a moment and said, "It should be enough for us to eat for two weeks! What's the matter, Captain? Do you want to be a good person again?"

Ace's face turned slightly red: "Well, helping them should still be within our capabilities!"

"Then you have to think about it carefully." Ayaan leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. "I've already asked around here. The fields in Wano Country are almost impossible to grow any crops due to pollution. There aren't many forests, and the occasional animals and plants are polluted and toxic."

"Because of the terrain of the rushing sea current, there are not even many sea beasts in the sea. In other words, there is almost no way to get supplies here."

"I've thought about this kind of thing a long time ago." Ace showed a confident expression.

"Although most of the land in Wano Country has been polluted, Kurozumi Orochi and Kaido's subordinates still need to eat, right? They at least retain the land and food that can feed their own forces!"

"Ha! So you are really planning to kill Kaido before dealing with Whitebeard? This statement really fits your character, Captain!" Ayaan said with an expression of unbearable anger.
