With the strongest bloodline, it’s not too much to have more children, right?

"Lord Zell, there is an old woman who wants to see you."

Hassan found Zell and reported.

Zel took a look at the system map and roughly knew who was looking for him.

"Bring her to me."

Three minutes later, an old woman who looked like a witch was brought to Zell by Hassan.

Seeing the person coming, Zel was right in his guess. It was Kurozumi Murasaki from the Rocks Pirates, the user of the Mimicry Fruit.

The generals of Wano Country have always been from the Kozuki family, served by the five daimyo families of Amae, Shimotsuki, Fugetsu, Ugetsu and Kurozumi.

However, not all daimyo families are willing to remain under the Kozuki family.

A long time ago, Kozuki Oden's grandfather had no children, and the people of Wano Country began to change their hearts.

All the daimyo families believed that this was an opportunity to rise, but due to the suppression of the Kozuki family for so many years, they were relatively restrained.

However, there is one exception, and that is the Heitan family.

The Kurozumi family had great ambitions. The patriarch of the Kurozumi family at that time decisively chose to take action. He drugged and killed one daimyo after another, allowing the power of Wano Country to continue to move towards the Kurozumi family.

During that period, Wano Country was in turmoil. The major families were constantly suspicious of each other and fought against each other, while the Kurozumi family watched from behind.

When the power of all the daimyo families was almost exhausted and the Kurozumi family became the most powerful family, Kozuki Oden's father, Kozuki Sukiyaki, was born.

Kozuki Sukiyaki's move meant that the position of general of Wano Country had been chosen, and the four major families also put aside their prejudices. Through their investigation, the plan of the Kurozumi family was exposed.

Kurozumi Orochi's grandfather was ordered to commit suicide, and more than half of the Kurozumi family members were executed, and many of the remaining members were driven out of Wano Country.

Kurozumi Kurusan and her brother Kurozumi Chanmaru were among those who were expelled from Wano Country. They returned to Wano Country not to compete for the position of daimyo.

There are not many people left in the Kurozumi family, and what they want is revenge on Wano Country and the destruction of Wano Country.

"Lord Zel, I wonder if you are interested in acquiring a country, a country with a large land area and a large population." There was a sinister smile on Kurozumi Muchan's face.

"You're talking about Wano Country, right? This is Whitebeard's territory."

"I know Whitebeard. They usually don't occupy countries. Your Excellency, don't worry."

Kurozumi Murasaki is also a member of the Rocks Pirates, and he is familiar with Whitebeard's personality and style of doing things.

"What are you going to do?"

"Now the son of the general of Wano Country, Kozuki Oden, has gone out to sea with Whitebeard. As long as we control the current general, Kozuki Sukiyaki, we can control Wano Country."

"By then, Kurozumi Orochi, who has supported our Kurozumi family, will become the general of Wano Country, and Wano Country will be in our hands." Kurozumi Murasaki's old face was filled with excitement, looking very creepy.

"According to you, Wano Country belongs to your Kurozumi family. What does it have to do with me?" Zel asked indifferently.

"We, the Kurozumi family, can swear to be your subordinates. Then, won't you gain the country of Wano?"

"It's very tempting, but I want to take something from you." Zel stood up and slowly walked to Heitan Muchan.

Heitan Muchan's eyes lit up, there was hope.

"What would you like to borrow, sir?"

"Your Imitation Fruit."

"My Lord needs me to do—you!"

A blood sword formed in Zel's hand and pierced directly into Kurozumi Muchan's heart.

"Although your proposal is tempting, I don't need it."

Kurozumi Murasaki fell to the ground and never knew why Zel killed her until her death.

Whether it is the Mimicry Fruit, the Barrier Fruit or the Yamata-no-Orochi Fruit, Zel will not let it go, although it will be easy to occupy Wano Country by cooperating with the Kurozumi family.

But Zel is not like Kaido who simply wants to occupy Wano Country. Zel's goal is to rationally develop Wano Country.

Throwing Kurozumi Murasaki into the sea, Zel went straight to look for Kurozumi Chanmaru and Kurozumi Orochi.

Following the guidance of the system map, Zel found several devil fruits in one night before finding Kurozumi Orochi and the others.

Along the way, Zel obtained the Ripe Fruit and the Sealed Fruit.

However, what Zel cared about the most was that Kurozumi Orochi actually had three devil fruits.

"Uncle Chanmaru, will Zel agree to cooperate with us? What if he forcibly seizes Wano Country?"

Kurozumi Orochi is a timid person and has a strong fear of strong people like Zel.

boom!

Just as Kurozumi Chanmaru was about to speak, Zel fell directly from the roof, scaring Kurozumi Orochi who was talking to Kurozumi Chanmaru.

“I’m here to cooperate with you.” Zell had a friendly smile on his face, as if he really came to cooperate with them.

"Lord Zell, do you know Mu Chan?"

Compared to Orochi, Kurozumi Chanmaru had experienced more and quickly calmed down.

"That old woman? She's dead. What? Do you want to go with me?"

At this moment, Zel's smile was so scary that it scared the big snake and made it roll on the ground.

“Okay, go and accompany her! Several blood swords appeared out of thin air beside Zel and shot directly at the two of them.

"barrier!"

A blue barrier appeared in front of the two of them, blocking Zel's attack.

"Zel, you can't break my defense!"

Anger also appeared on Kurozumi Chanwan's old face. After all, Kurozumi Murasaki was his sister who had depended on him for so many years.

"As expected of a Barrier Fruit, this defense is truly formidable."

Zel didn't care at all that his attack was blocked. Although the Barrier Fruit was very powerful, it could be solved by attacking from the inside.

Zel's eyes flashed red, and the wooden planks under Heitan Chanwan's feet turned into blood, which turned into spikes and pierced his body.

He was already old, and his body was pierced before he even had time to activate his Armament Haki.

"you--!"

Heitan Muchan stared at Zel with his eyes fixed, and lost his life.

"Do not kill me!"

Kurozumi Orochi transformed into a giant Yamata-no-Orochi, but did not dare to attack Zel and just begged for mercy.

"It's a shame to give you this devil fruit!"

Eight blood blades slashed through the body of the big snake, and all eight heads fell off at once. The powerful mythical beast ability user died just like that.

Kurozumi Orochi's development of the Devil Fruit is definitely the worst Zel has ever seen, even worse than the two leaders of the South China Sea.

Following the guidance of the system, Zel found another devil fruit in the room. Zel guessed that it should be the ink-ink fruit that Kurozumi Kanjuro later had.

I have to say that the devil fruits of the Kurozumi family are more powerful than each other. The only devil fruit of the Nine Red Scabbards is the Curl-En-Hurry Fruit, which is pretty good.

Zell detonated the bodies of the two men, causing them to turn into a bloody mist and enter the ground, then he left the scene of the crime.

The deaths of Kurozumi Orochi and the other two did not cause any turmoil. They are still in hiding and no one knows them.

The other members of the Heitan family lost their leader and eventually gave up on revenge. They dared not resist anymore, fearing that they would be the ones to die one day.
