The Days of Being the Richest Man in the Ninja World

[V3] - Chapter 37. Go Meet the New Boss

---

Wano Country.

After the war started, the entire Wano Country fell in an instant!

Due to the cooperation between the two great Ninja Worlds, plus the infiltration of over 100,000 White Zetsus, relying on the Mayfly Technique, they instantly went into hiding all over Wano Country, establishing a temporary intelligence system.

All the White Zetsus were clear.

From the very beginning, the goal of this war was extremely clear, and that was… to kill off the Beasts Pirates!

To actually dare to bully their new boss, and even bully not only the First Boss, but also the Second Boss and Third Boss — all three new bosses.

Let me tell you!

This grudge has gotten huge!

"For Boss Yumi!"

Fueled by anger, all the little white men started moving frantically, simultaneously coordinating with the ninja assassinations from the various ninja villages, swiftly taking care of… the Beasts Pirates crew members they encountered in front of them.

Of course.

The Beasts Pirates, who could be called one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, were not so easily dealt with.

Although under the ninja assassinations, most of the Beasts Pirates were killed off before they could even react, as for the elite crew members of the Beasts Pirates… they were not so easily assassinated!

So, after getting through the first wave of rapid assassinations, the Beasts Pirates also reacted, hastily launching a counterattack against this unknown group of enemies that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The slaughter between ninja and pirates began!

And at this moment.

With such a big commotion, the other forces within Wano Country also noticed… these sudden and unknown ninja forces.

"Just where did these righteous warriors come from, Denjiro-san?"

"Temporarily still unknown. Their goal seems to be only the Beasts Pirates, Hiyori-sama!" A man with narrow eyes and long narrow ears, wearing a four-leaf clover kimono, shook his head. Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, his long slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his eyes, which were already squinting, suddenly looked even more terrifying. With a serious expression, he said, "But the promised time has not yet arrived. We must not act rashly again. I ask Your Highness to please wait patiently."

Ever since Oden-sama sacrificed himself, the samurai of Wano have launched countless uprisings, but… all of them failed.

In the end, the remaining samurai, by now, were either captured and sent to mine or had joined forces with Kurozumi Orochi and the Beasts Pirates.

So.

For the sake of the upcoming day, they absolutely could not take risks again. They must preserve their last bit of strength and gather together before the promised day comes, to drive out all of the Beasts Pirates.

"There are still five years left! I believe the Nine Red Scabbards will definitely reunite, and in the end, we'll surely be able to drive out the Beasts Pirates!"

"Yes! The promised day hasn't arrived yet!" Kozuki Hiyori lowered her head in disappointment, and a trace of a sigh flashed through her eyes. Five years… still have to wait five years!

Everyone was already tired by now.

But as the bloodline of the Kozuki Clan, she absolutely could not give up so easily.

Thinking of this, a sweet smile immediately returned to Kozuki Hiyori's face. "When the time comes, we'll definitely succeed!"

"Then I will take my leave for now! Given something like this happening, I believe that next, Kurozumi Orochi — that guy — will definitely summon you over."

That traitor always wants to watch a show whenever there's danger!

Truly a pleasure-seeking traitor!

Denjiro paused for a moment, gave a bow, and said, "I'll go investigate the origins of this group of people first. Perhaps in the future, we can form an alliance and fight the Beasts Pirates together."

That's right.

In Wano Country, no one believed… that the Beasts Pirates would be so easily taken out by some unknown force.

One had to know that they were one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, possessing terrifying strength that even Oden-sama could not easily defeat. Even if they were the enemy… they still had to admit… that was a truly terrifying monster.

Even the other Four Emperors dared not provoke them lightly!

Saying that, he placed his hand on the long sword at his waist and was just about to turn and leave.

Suddenly.

"So this girl is the Kozuki Clan's surviving child? She is actually disguising herself as a courtesan!"

"They all say she has a brother too, but he seems to have disappeared."

"Maybe he's dead~ so, I'm not wrong!"

From the ground came several strange voices.

Kozuki Hiyori and Denjiro's expressions changed immediately, and they turned their heads together, their faces dark, and shouted, "Who?"

As their words fell—

They instantly saw several heads popping up from the ground beside them.

However.

These few guys…

Looked almost exactly alike, and their whole bodies were pale white… only their white heads were sticking out!

What the hell kind of creatures were these?!

"Hehehe, you see us now, don't you? Since that's the case," one of the White Zetsus said with a giggle, "Come with me for a bit, Kozuki Hiyori! This place will be offered as a gift to our boss's territory, so, we hope you'll cooperate!"

"Your boss?"

Kozuki Hiyori and Denjiro were stunned for a moment, then their faces turned cold again.

These guys were eyeing Wano Country too?!

"That's right! That's right! Enough nonsense! Hurry up and come along!" another White Zetsu beside him shouted impatiently. "Our boss got quite the scare this time! It's just right to offer a gift to the boss!"

"Actually, dead people work too! Just get some blood! We can just transform directly!"

"?!"

Hearing what this group said, both of their faces immediately changed. They thought of that strange man back then who disguised himself as Sukiyaki and Momonosuke. Could it be that this group of guys was also…

Denjiro was about to draw his sword.

But he was stopped by Kozuki Hiyori.

Before the promised day arrived, they absolutely could not act rashly, especially against this group of unknown people who came from who knows where, with who knows what purpose!

Hiyori's delicate face showed a slight smile as she looked at the White Zetsus in front of her. "May I ask who your boss is?"

"You'll find out soon enough! Our boss has inherited the noblest bloodline from our mother and is the one among our mother's descendants who most resembles her! The noblest person in the Ninja World!"

"…" Hearing that this group of guys seemed unwilling to say more, Kozuki Hiyori's eyelids twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything.

However.

Based on what they had just said.

This group of people should be from some unknown island overseas, and this time declaring war seemed to be because the Beasts Pirates had provoked their boss. As a result, this bunch of lunatics were declaring war on a Four Emperor!

From the looks of it.

Yet another enormous overseas force!

Hiyori's face still maintained a smile. "Then may I ask… are those people outside also with you?"

"Of course! Other than our boss, who else could gather so many ninjas?"

Those people called over by Boss Yumi's father — well, that means they were called over by Boss Yumi.

No problem at all!

Boss Yumi is truly amazing!

"That's right! That's right! As long as you behave obediently, our boss will definitely treat you well!"

"I heard you can sing and dance. When the time comes, coax our boss properly, and there will be benefits for you! Otherwise, we'll kill you!"

"Yuto Group benefits! Famous for being good!"

"…"

So the people outside really were part of the same group.

And there's also this Yuto Group.

Their boss might be someone who likes listening to singing and dancing and who also has his eyes on Wano Country.

At this moment.

A figure was already taking shape in Kozuki Hiyori's mind.

Ambitious, greedy for pleasure, but having so many terrifying subordinates, which also meant his strength must be extremely strong.

So, he should be an ambitious man just like Kurozumi Orochi or the Captain of the Beasts Pirates — Kaido of the Beasts!

Hiyori sighed inwardly.

Wano Country truly is plagued by endless misfortune!

Then she stopped Denjiro beside her, who was about to make a move, and subtly shook her head at him.

She would act according to the situation!

Don't make a move for now!

These strange guys, who could actually pop up from the ground and even investigate her identity, were definitely not ordinary. Escaping from them probably wouldn't be that easy.

Her face once again wore a bright smile as she looked at the White Zetsus underground. "I can come along, but the Shogun Kurozumi Orochi has invited me, so for now I cannot leave!"

"What Shogun or not! None of that is as important as our boss! Hurry up and come with us!"

"That's right! That's right! That Kurozumi Orochi… seems to be in cahoots with the Beasts Pirates. People have already been sent to take care of him!"

"He… is as good as dead!"

"…Since that's the case…"

Kurozumi Orochi… has also been targeted?

Kozuki Hiyori froze for a moment, then that bright smile appeared on her face again. "Then I will go with you! But I hope you can spare Denjiro-san!"

"Fine! As long as he's not part of the Beasts Pirates, that has nothing to do with us!"

"Anyway, if he acts recklessly, someone else will kill him!"

"No need to worry about him!"

"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

"I thank you all here!" Saying that, Kozuki Hiyori smiled and nodded slightly at Denjiro, signaling him not to act rashly. If something were to happen to herself, someone would still be needed to guide back the returning "ghosts," to complete the final battle.

So, she absolutely must stay calm!

Then.

She sighed inwardly, smiling as she looked at the White Zetsus in front of her. "Then I'll trouble you all from here on out!"

She still didn't know who the boss of this mysterious force was?!

However.

As long as it's an ambitious man… she believed that with her own abilities, she would definitely be fine!
