Seeing Lady Toki's current state, Black waved to Stella.
Scarlett, however, was a step ahead, quickly running to Black's side with keen perception, handing him a Slave collar and Sea Stone handcuffs.
With two clicks, Lady Toki was securely locked up.
Although the wind-up time for the Time-Time Fruit's ability was even longer than Kizaru's Light Speed Kick, it was safer to have her restrained.
It must be said that Wano Country's Sea Stone processing technology was indeed world-leading.
The artisans here could control the purity of the Sea Stone to create handcuffs that prevented people from using their Devil Fruit abilities, yet still allowed them enough strength to mine.
However, even when locked up, Lady Toki still stared intently at Black with an expressionless face.
Black smiled and walked over to Hiyori, whose body was already swaying.
Seeing her brother beheaded up close, Hiyori felt a dizzying sensation and her vision went Black.
An indescribable fear surged through her, and she began to stumble.
Black placed his hand on her head:
"Don't worry, I won't do that to you. From now on, you'll be my little Slave!"
Perona, standing nearby, pouted and muttered softly:
"This big bad guy, as soon as he sees a pretty girl, he wants to make her a Slave."
"Huh? Does that mean I'm also very pretty?"
"Hehehehe..."
As she thought about it, the little girl actually started to giggle foolishly.
Black, exasperated, gave her a hard knock on the head:
"What the hell are you giggling about! Is that the sound you should be making?"
Lady Toki, who was being restrained by Scarlett not far away, saw Kozuki Hiyori by Black's side, and her previously vacant eyes flickered once more... Meanwhile, the great battle between Kaido and Kozuki Oden was nearing its end.
"Oden Two-Sword Style: Paradise Totsuka!"
Two figures crossed paths, and a large amount of blood spurted from Kaido's massive body, transformed into a blue dragon, with two huge scars appearing on his abdomen.
He found it difficult to maintain his flying posture for a moment and transformed into his human-beast form, falling to the ground.
"Governor-General Kaido!"
Abel, who was fighting the Nine Red Scabbards, let out a cry of alarm.
Queen's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief:
"The invincible Lord Kaido has actually been wounded?!"
Upon seeing this scene, the Nine Red Scabbards' morale instantly soared, and their previous mutual distrust seemed to have eased.
In reality, Kaido's injuries were far less severe than they appeared.
The strongest aspect of Animal-type Devil Fruits lay in their regenerative abilities and sustained combat capability.
Even though Kozuki Oden had left two sword wounds on Kaido, the outcome of continuing the fight was still uncertain.
However, at this moment, a cry of alarm came from afar.
"Father! Save me!"
Oden heard the familiar voice, looked back, and saw "Momonosuke" being held in someone's hand, struggling and crying profusely.
"Momo!"
Oden's heart trembled, and he instinctively wanted to go rescue him.
In the instant he was distracted, a brief gap appeared in his Observation Haki.
Kaido, who was fighting Oden, did not miss this opportunity. Lightning flashed dazzlingly on his kanabo, striking Oden and instantly rendering him unconscious.
"Wuwuwu..."
Although Kaido had won, he was not in a good mood; he even started to cry.
Seeing Oden fall, Kurozumi Higurashi deactivated the Mimic-Mimic Fruit's effect and returned to her original appearance.
Her face was almost twisted together as she let out a bizarre laugh:
"Ehh hahahaha..."
"Kaido, the biggest trouble has been resolved."
"From now on, Wano Country will be ours."
Kaido turned to look at Kurozumi Higurashi, the coldness in his eyes making her hair stand on end and cold sweat break out on her forehead:
"Kaido... you..."
"Who allowed you to interrupt the duel between me and Kozuki Oden?"
As he spoke, Kaido had already swung his kanabo.
Bang!
Kurozumi Higurashi was smashed to the ground, no longer recognizable.
Dead!
After all this, Kaido started crying "wuwu" again.
On the other side, seeing Oden defeated, the Nine Red Scabbards were completely demoralized, barely able to hold on.
When Kaido came to his senses and charged into the battlefield, no one could withstand a single blow from him.
He knocked them out one by one with his kanabo and put Sea Stone handcuffs on them.
He glanced at the Beasts Pirates, who had also suffered considerable losses:
"Orororororo..."
"The war is over!"
"Now, send these guys to the Flower Capital."
"Public execution!"
The members of the Beasts Pirates, standing there with swords and knives, covered in scars both large and small, cheered loudly.
"Lord Kaido is invincible!"
"Governor-General Kaido is always victorious!"
"Lord Kaido... Aoooaooo!!!"
The uncultured pirates, not knowing what to shout, let out a series of wails and howls... Black, who didn't know how long Oden's execution would take, didn't stay in Oden's courtyard. Instead, he took Lady Toki and Kozuki Hiyori back to the entertainment district where they had been staying for the past few days.
To be honest, the name always made Black feel a bit ominous, as if the women there carried viruses, which led to him doing nothing but enjoying song and dance these past few days.
As a result, by the next morning, news began to spread throughout the Flower Capital that Kozuki Oden was to be executed.
Unlike the widespread outrage in the original story, the Wano Country citizens' feelings towards Oden had been shaken by Black's rumors.
Furthermore, Kozuki Oden was not a very popular person to begin with, and he had danced naked for five years.
The people of the Flower Capital did not have much resistance to the news of Oden's execution.
Hearing this news, Lady Toki and Hiyori's faces showed sorrow.
Black, however, became very interested:
"Let's go, let's go! We're going to watch."
"Stella, did you bring the visual den den mushi I asked you to prepare?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Stella quickly pulled out a visual den den mushi from her small satchel and handed it to Black.
Black weighed it in his hand and then led the way towards the execution platform... Kozuki Oden's execution was no different from the original story.
Even though there was clearly a traitor among the Nine Red Scabbards, he still chose to endure the boiling oil alone.
Almost everyone who witnessed this execution was brainwashed into becoming a fan of Kozuki Oden.
It was quite speechless.
A bad person who did bad things all his life, occasionally doing something not so bad, ultimately became a hero.
The World Government's brainwashing was only for amusement; true brainwashing had to come from Kozuki Oden.
This guy used an old man's bones as firewood to make a pot of Oden.
Just because he said a nostalgic remark after eating it, the old man's granddaughter actually thought Oden had a heroic spirit.
What the hell was the difference between this and the Celestial Dragons?
Many Celestial Dragons wouldn't do such a thing, after all, they didn't have the brains for it.
"Did you record it?"
Black asked Stella behind him.
Stella held up the visual den den mushi in her hand, checked it, and handed it to Black:
"Your Highness, everything has been recorded."
"Good! It's time to show off my skills as an editing master!"
