Self-Discipline! Have You Seen Marineford at Four o’clock in the Morning?

New World Wanokuni.

The afterglow of the setting sun was scattered on the earth in the gradually dimming sky, and the floating dust flew freely in the fiery red light beam.

On the desolate, deserted ground, dust was flying, and the squally wind swept the fallen leaves and flew up.

On the official road,

One after another, figures came slowly from different directions in the distance.

one person,

Two people,

Three people,

….….

Finally, when the ninth figure gathered on the official road, the nine people lined up and stood side by side.

The almost remnant red sunset cast their tall and slightly bleak figures into long shadows, as their footsteps dragged on the official road longer and longer.

Each of them wears Wanokuni's unique costume uniformly.

I stepped on clogs under my feet,

Wearing a slender, loose kimono,

I wear a large coat outside the kimono,

Wearing a hat made of bamboo on his head, it covers the face of each of them.

The back is the setting sun,

Their steps are getting heavier and heavier.

"Unexpectedly, after so many years, we will finally gather..."

One of them let out a clear and mellow laugh under the hat, with emotion.

"You are still so much nonsense, we don't have much time, Lord Oden is waiting for us..."

Another voice came out.

"On this trip, we died nine times, but no matter what the final outcome, I will not regret following Master Oden."

They laughed every word and every word, their tone was free and easy, as if they hadn't put the upcoming battle in their eyes at all.

"Does this need you to say? Without Master Oden, can our messy group of guys go to this day?"

"Hahahahaha!!! In this battle, we will definitely let the whole Wanokuni, as well as the damn Kaido and Kurozumi, see the strength of the nine of us!!"

"Well, but before that, we must gather more power."

"Leopard Goro over there?"

"Yes, Leopard Goro has assembled a lot of forces who want to participate in the war in the arsenal prison in Jiuli. Most of them are strong men who were captured by Kaido and worked hard..."

"They both have unwashed blood feuds with Kaido and Beasts Pirates, and they should be able to help us not be weak."

"I hope so, but the more combat power we have, the better our chances of winning."

"Kaido, only Master Oden can deal with it."

"We only need to protect Lord Oden well, and we must not let other guys hinder Lord Oden's fight with Kaido."

"In that case, let's go."

"The Jiuli Armory..."

The nine people walked slowly on the official road, while discussing with a smile indifferently.

They are all Kozuki Oden's retainers.

In the past few years,

Kozuki Oden's various "behaviors" have made him lose heart in Wanokuni.

After the betrayal of the relatives,

In the end, he was willing to support him,

Those who stand behind him and continue to fight and fight,

Only these nine people remain.

The setting sun is like blood,

The nine men who were taken in and educated by Kozuki Oden to rank among the samurai, moved forward uniformly.

The blood-red sunset reflected the red brilliance of these nine tragic and lonely figures walking on the official road.

Even the sabers around their waists seemed to bloom with the luster of flames, like life burning arbitrarily.

They walked through the official road, crossed the bridge, and under the slowly setting sun, their arrogance and hustle and bustle seemed like a perfect silhouette painting.

On this day,

It was the day when the nine retainers of Kozuki Oden decided to fight for the last time.

Not only in this twilight season,

In the twilight of Kozuki Oden’s life,

Take their steps bravely,

It fully proves that they are faithful believers who have followed that man all their lives.

In the countless years that followed,

Countless people from all over Wanokuni are in awe of the strength of these nine people and their unwavering loyalty.

Call them ── "Nine Heroes of Chisao"! !

….….

….….

Wanokuni nine miles.

In a huge arsenal that swallows hot black smoke like a horrible steel behemoth.

Roy, Crocodile, Ghost Spider and Gekko Moria were called by Leopard Goro to a hidden area in this arsenal during the break.

The clanging of shackles followed their movements and footsteps and made a crisp and harsh sound, which made people feel impatient.

But the eyes of the four people were full of strong fighting spirit, exuding a biting light.

"Do you feel it?"

Crocodile suddenly turned his head and whispered to Gekko Moria next to him.

Moria nodded.

"It seems... the weakening effect of the seastone shackles on my physique has become lighter..."

Crocodile smiled meaningfully.

"Yes, I have studied a lot about the development of Devil Fruit in the past two years."

"Especially the effect of seastone on Demon fruit power can be reduced with the body's adaptability."
