[Wano Country: Land Of Kuri]
As Jaune and his allies on Remnant were making their way to Atlas, things were moving back in the Grand Line, specifically the New World, more specifically Wano Country]
Strawhat Luffy, captain of the Strawhat Pirates has just joined an alliance with Trafalgar Law, captain of the Heart pirates, and Momonosuke, the current leader of the Kozuki Clan.
Right now some of the leaders of the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai alliance were hiding in what was left of Oden Castle with a few close allies, is there enemies would never suspect that they were held up and what was basically a castle that was a ghost of its former self.
Currently Luffy, Law, Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Brook, and Chopper were sitting in a room inside the castle with Kin'emon looking distressed, as he was about to review everything to the Allies he managed to gather during his trip out to sea.
"My friends, I am sorry I had to hide so much from you. But we need to be sure that you could be trusted in our war against Kaido and Orochi!"said Kin'emon, before he bowed his head to apologize.
"Come on, guys! No more secrets from us as we're friends!"said Luffy, annoyed that they kept so many secrets from them when he clearly trusted them from the start.
"Yeah!"said Brook, the skeleton in agreement.
"We're Allies."said Chopper, before he began munching on some fruit.
"So, what's the plan?"asked Zoro, wondering what his samurai Ally was planning.
"First, we need to find allies here in the country. As I've already explained to you, those with the tattoo of the moon on their ankle secretly support Kozuki, and wish to assist in the end of the tyranny of the Shogun."said Kin'emon, reminding his allies of what they discussed earlier.
"And how exactly are we supposed to do that? We're strangers in this land and I doubt the people here will support pirates."said Sanji, knowing full well that the people wouldn't support pirates considering they have been oppressed by one for over twenty years.
"That is why we must find four individual specifically."said Kin'emon, getting the attention of the Strawhats and Law.
"And these four are?"inquired Law, wanting to know who they were looking for.
"Ashura Doji, Kawamatsu, Denjiro, and Jaune Arc."said Kin'emon, causing the swordsman in the room the gasp as a drop of sweat fell from their brows.
"You mean the Crescent Moon?"said Zoro, who was familiar with the last name Kin'emon gave.
"I can't believe it."added Law.
"What's wrong guys? Is there's something special about this Jaune Arc guy?"inquired Luffy, wanting to know why the last name made Zoro and Law freak out a little.
"Luffy, I know you're an idiot but come on."said Nami."Jaune Arc is the name of one of the Roger pirates."
"Eeeeeeehhhhhhh!"said Luffy with his eyes popping out.
"Cresent Moon, Jaune Arc. His time with the Roger Pirates was short, but he left many enemies cut down to spread his name throughout the Grand Line."explains Law, as he knows the name.
"Here in Wano, he is known as the golden tiger."said Kin'emon."In fact, out of all of us he is the strongest as he was the one who was with Lord Oden the longest during his travels."
"This guy must be amazing if he manages to survive with Roger. I would like to meet him one day."said Luffy, being nonchalant as ever.
"We don't know if he is alive or not."said Momonosuke."He went out to see to collect allies, and we haven't heard from him since then."
"He's probably on the down low because the Marines will never give up on hunting down the Roger pirates. And considering he had an over seven hundred million Berri bounty on his head, add to that many enemies, it's hard to assume he's even still alive."said Law, feeling like it needed to be said.
"Jaune is alive! He's one of the strongest samurai Wano has ever produced! Even my father said that it would be extremely hard to kill him!"said Momonosuke in Jaune's defense.
"He's right."said Zoro."Considering the Roger Pirates, it's safe to say that it's hard to kill even one of them."
"We hope Jaune will be back for the final battle! For now, we must search the land of Wano for the other three, as each and every last one of them is worth at least a hundred samurai."said Kin'emon, knowing that these four will be essential in the war against Kaido.
"We'll need them if we want the support of the other samurai."said Okiku."Jaune, Denjiro, Kawamatsu, and Ashura Doji. These are legendary names in the land of Wano, so I'm sure those who still have hope against Kaido and Orochi will support us if we have them by our side."
"Alright then! Let's look for these guys as they sound like they're really strong! And I especially want to meet a former member of the Roger pirates!"said Luffy with a huge grin on his face.
This made Momonosuke and Kin'emon happy to hear that they had the Strawhat Captain's support. They knew that would someone like him on their side, Kaido and Orochi better watch out!
Short chapter but I just wanted to give you a quick update on what was going on in Wano country.
