After Orochi's death it was now time to deal with the Traitor Kanjuro who lay there with a dark look in his eyes as he had nothing to say as everything lay bare that he was nothing but a traitor after all.
Oden just stood before him not really knowing what to say as both me and Kin'emon stood at his sides as we left the judgement up to him.
"…. Kanjuro…. Were you ever really my friend or did me and the memories that we made together with the rest of us mean nothing at all?" He asked with clear sadness in his voice.
"…." Kanjuro on the other hand remained silent and didn't even dare look up at Oden as in the few years that he has known Oden he questioned if it was the right thing, but remembering the deaths of his parents and finding out they were killed because they were part of the Kurozumi family made his emotions mixed about his time with Oden, but his anger was more prevalent in him and he knew that, so of course he would be nothing but a traitor to him.
"…. I see…. Kin'emon, take him away and have him locked up in our cells for good, as the last bit of kindness I will bestow you is that I won't have you executed like I did with Orochi…. Goodbye Kanjuro…." Is all Oden said as he turned and no longer wished to look at him before Kin'emon picked up Kanjuro and took him away leaving only me and Oden alone.
Oden clearly looked saddened by what has happened as I patted his back while Serenity pulled Orochi's body and heads into the shadows leaving only the blood that stained the floors as a reminder as to what had happened.
"You did the right thing, it maybe hard for what you had to do to your friend but it's for the best for you, your retainers and the rest of Wano on what you decided to do today." I say to him to make him feel better and it seemed to work if only slightly.
"Yeah…. I know, after I tell the rest of what happened I would be glad to see the grand opening of your store in my territory, though do you need help with its construction at all?" He said as he turned to face me.
"That won't be necessary, when you are done here you and the rest can come along to see the creation and opening of my store." I said with a smile to him.
He nodded and smiled back, "I'm really looking forward to what your store has to offer from the items of the outside world!" He said before he took a seat and poured himself a drink as we waited for his retainers return to tell them what had happened here today.
'Serenity, hunt down those two old fools, we don't need them causing trouble later, kill the old man first before the woman as he is the most difficult to deal with.' I mentally told Serenity which she acknowledged before going off to complete her mission I gave her.
So long as she deals with the old man first it will be easy to deal with the old woman afterwards, but soon enough Odens retainers returned including the young Kiku and Izou before he told them of what happened.
After hearing what he had to say they were both saddened and angered by Kanjuro's betrayal along with learning what the Kurozumi family had planned to do to the citizens of Wano had their plan succeeded.
Hearing that if it wasn't for my help then none of this would ever be known whatsoever so they turned and bowed to me, thanking me for what I, an outsider, had done for the people of Wano.
After taking their thanks and getting all the pleasantries out of the way Oden stood up, "Alright everyone, with that all said it's time we welcome the creation of Hifumi's store in our territory, so come along everyone! I already know the perfect spot!" Oden said excitedly as he lead the way with all of us following after him.
After leaving the castle we headed down the hill that the castle was on to go into Bakura Town the central business hub of the Kuri region where many of the merchants could be found and where most of the citizens in Kuri could be found living in or coming to and from Bakura Town.
So us coming into the city the people were happy to see their lord touring through there town, but they noticed a man they had not seen before walking side by side with their lord, and while they know Oden wouldn't care his retainers not caring either meant that whoever this man was that was walking with him must be important.
I could feel the eyes of people watching us but most were focused on Oden with it secondly focused on me, if I turned and looked at a group of people the women would blush slightly before avoiding eye contact with me.
'This Aizen look does fit me very well it seems.' I think before I look back to where we were going before soon enough we came across a large empty plot of land in the Town.
A crowd had gathered as they wanted to see what their Lord wanted to do with this empty plot of land near the center of Town, "Hifumi, it's all yours." Oden said as he waved it to me with a smile on his face.
I smile back, "Then I guess I should show you some magic shouldn't I?" I say before I waved my hand at the area before us as I already selected how I wanted it to look.
And before everyone's eyes the air began to twist before the massive form of a three storie ancient Japanese styled building appeared before everyone's shocked eyes.
"Welcome everyone to the grand opening of Wano's very own All Worlds Goods!" I said giving it a bit of flair to the on lookers.
"Now come on in Oden let me show you my store, and don't worry when you approach the doors you will be able to fit inside." I say as I stand by the doors as they slide open on their own.
With a huge smile on his face he approached me and as he did he realized that I was getting bigger as we were now standing at eye level with eachother, "Hifumi…. Did you suddenly get taller?"
"Nope, you got smaller, it's so no matter how big or small you are that you will all at least be anywhere between 5 to 6ft tall, except for kids as there's no need to change their heights unless they are giants themselves." I say with a smirk as I see the other overly larger retainers in Raizo and Ashura-Douji shrinking down to our height.
"Now come on in everyone look around and see what the outside world has to offer." I say as I wave them in as me and them step inside and not long later the average citizens of Bakura Town come into see what this wonderful building has to offer.
The look in Oden's eyes as they sparkled, just like the others was funny to watch as I saw Oden run off to see what the store had to offer, his retainers spread out to see what was available as well.
The store itself had goods one could get from anywhere in this world to enjoy, spices from Alabasta, Candy from Totto Land, Giant sized meat from Elbaf, and many other of the common amenities that could be found in the outside world as well as things found more commonly in my world along with the human Homunculi servants.
That and including a bar, food/drink vending machines and Fastfood that could only be found in my stores it was a plethora of wonder to anyone who came to see what was inside.
"Hifumi! This place is amazing!" Oden said as he came running back with two giant sized, shrunken until exiting the store, of meat on the bone in his hands as he bit into them and began to eat, after paying for them of course.
"I know right? Even in the outside world the people are amazed by all the things my stores have to sell, but it's about time I go home as I have some friends waiting for me back at home." I say as it's felt like awhile since I've been home if it's only been several hours.
"Awww, you really have to go back now? Will you come back soon though?" Oden said sounding a bit disappointed that I had to leave so soon.
"Yeah I think I should head back, I left a troublesome person back at my home, but don't worry I have a close friend of mine that works for me who can tell you about the outside world and the many people in it." I say as I point over to the bar area where Archer was standing behind as he gave us a nod before going back to cleaning his glass cups.
"Well that works for me, though when's the next time you'll comeback?"
"It might not be for awhile, the earliest would be a few months(A Week) to a few years(Winter Break) but I will make a visit when those pirates show up in the future as I have a connection with the captain after all, so just come and tell Archer when the pirates come and I'll be told so I'll come back as soon as possible." I explained to him.
"I see, well then I will see you the next time we meet, I won't go on with long goodbyes as we will see each other soon enough, but I'm going to see if what else this place has to offer, so until next time Hifumi!" He said with a happy smile before he bolted off and headed further into the store.
I just shook my head before going to the bar and behind it into the back room, "Going home young master?" Archer asks.
"Yes, I have some troublesome guest at home I should deal with…. And I get the feeling they already have done something so I should go…." I said as I started to feel a slight unease in my heart that something happened, I doubt someone died but I know it's something stupid that I'll have to clean up….
"But at least what I have done has made it all worth it." I say as I look at the savior system reward for Wano.
[Savior Mission: Save Wano, Completed!]
[Reward: Title- King of Beasts and Monsters]
[King of Beasts and Monsters: Whenever dealing with a being defined by the True System as having the [Beast] or [Monster] trait on them they are more susceptible to fear, intimidation, persuasion, coercion, and or a willing to follow the barer of this title, those that challenge that have these traits will be debuffed while the barer of the title will be buffed against them making it so the title barer will, no matter what, be stronger, this title can be lost if the barer loses to a being with the [Beast] or [Monster] traits and be given to them, though previous owners can earn it back even if they do not have those traits]
In the world of One Piece this basically invalidates all of the Zoan users and makes them weaker and more willing to follow me as this is the title the system says that Kaidou will get for himself in the future which makes sense as he made the beast pirates.
Not only that but anything in any world that has those traits, including demihumans, sentient monsters and mindless beasts fall under this category so it's a title that's good to have in any world I go to, even my own as Dead Apostles are considered as [Monsters] in my world even if they are few and far in between to be found.
Nevertheless it was time I left One Piece and went home, "Ahh it's good to be…. Back…." I say walking back into my living room to see….
Florence having Briar in a choke hold as she was in her berserk mode, Saki down on the floor as her soul seems to be escaping her body and Mikan freaking out trying wake Saki back up.
"What…. What happened while I was gone?!"
