honestly!

Anyone with even a slight understanding of Wano Country would find it extremely strange, even absurd, that there are simply too many Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits in Wano Country, to the point of being bizarre. It is precisely because of this that Seimei has been investigating what exactly is going on inside Wano Country.

Or rather, 893! 964460

What secrets are hidden in the very long history of Wano Country? That is the most interesting thing, and it is what Seimei has been searching for very seriously.

Kurozumi Higurashi earnestly explained, "Young Master! 1700 years ago, Wano Country was just a remote village. However, due to a super-large volcanic eruption beneath the sea, the current terrain of Wano Country was formed."

"Ok!"

Seimei nodded in agreement. This situation was not strange at all. Only the power of nature could have created such a unique terrain as Wano Country. The opening of Wano Country was not something that could be resolved with just a few words ("Is the king alright?").

This is purely a joke. The first thing that prevented Wano Country from opening its borders was not that the people of Wano Country didn't want to open their borders, but rather the terrain of Wano Country. Don't be fooled by how easy it seemed for Seimei to leave; that was because of the ghost ship. Try letting an ordinary person leave and see what happens.

The raging storms and the massive waterfall outside, even the shallow harbor, are not easy for us to leave. It can be said that the entire Wano Country faces enormous troubles if it wants to open its borders. This is the most crucial core issue, and it is the fundamental reason why Wano Country has been unable to truly open its borders for so long.

otherwise!

Surely no one really thinks Wano Country doesn't want to open its borders? So many years have passed! It's not that Wano Country doesn't want to open its borders; even the Five Elders call it an impregnable fortress! This shows that Wano Country has huge internal problems that can't be described in just a few words. It's not that simple. That's why Wano Country's situation is so unique, and why it's gradually falling into this special predicament.

This is the most fundamental reason: the situation in Wano Country is inherently extremely special; otherwise, it wouldn't have ended up like this.

Chapter 189: The Real History!

To put it more simply, opening Wano Country to the world requires more than just internal agreement; it requires changing the country's topography. Otherwise, leaving Wano Country is one problem, and overcoming its fierce storms is another.

Given these troublesome issues, changing the situation in Wano Country is no easy task. This is the fundamental reason why the Five Elders call Wano Country an impregnable fortress, because it is extremely troublesome for various reasons.

"Hmm~"

Seimei pondered for a moment, then said, "Grandma Musashi, please continue. I'm also quite curious about the true history of Wano Country."

indeed!

The history of Wano Country is very special, especially since it dates back approximately 1700 years. It's safe to say that there are already many questions surrounding it. Under such circumstances, what exactly is the true history of Wano Country? That's a very interesting question!

On this vast ocean, many things are hidden, including the blank century of 800 years ago! It is undeniable that a great deal is indeed hidden. Precisely because of this, under such circumstances, much is concealed, and this is the fundamental reason! If it can be handled well, then there is no need to say more. But if it is not handled well, then everything becomes the most troublesome matter.

"Hmm~"

With his eyes narrowed, Seimei pondered all of this, secretly considering all the problems and what the future would hold for Wano Country. The fundamental reason remained unchanged: the situation in Wano Country was extremely unique and even peculiar! If it wasn't handled properly, everything would become very strange.

"Yes!"

Kurozumi Musashi continued, nodding, "Young Master! After the formation of the present-day Wano Country 1700 years ago, a family came to Wano Country. He possessed great power and became the emperor of Wano Country. Because of his godlike power, he was called the Emperor by the people of Wano Country. He brought samurai, ninjas, and craftsmen, and completely changed Wano Country."

"and……"

"Is this the Kurotan family?"

"Yes!"

Hearing Seimei's words, Kurozumi Musashi nodded respectfully and said, "Young Master! This family is the Kurozumi clan. The Kurozumi clan changed Wano Country back then and also built the prototype of the current Wano Country. They selected five major families in Wano Country to be their retainers and trained them. These five families are Kozuki, Ugetsuki, Amezuki, Fuuzuki, and Shimotsuki. These five families eventually formed Wano Country."

"Sure enough!"

Seimei nodded knowingly. Indeed! Just as he had guessed, the initial situation was very strange. Why would the Kurozumi clan, a vassal state of Wano Country led by the Kozuki clan, have a clan like that?

This is a very strange thing in itself, unless something went wrong in the middle, or the Kurozumi clan was not originally intended to be retainers. After all, wouldn't it have been more appropriate for May to be a retainer? Actually, it's easy to understand what's going on if you think about it for a little while.

Seimei had always been suspicious of this issue, and because of this, he had been carefully considering these many questions. As time went by, he gradually came to understand many things more thoroughly. Under such circumstances, he naturally considered many possibilities. However! As time went by...

Wano Country can be said to be completely under our control (ccaf), so we don't really care about these things anymore. Naturally, we've put these matters aside. After all, they're no longer important, so there's no need to be overly nervous.

Seimei didn't care much about these things and relaxed.

Naturally!

As Seimei relaxed, he naturally disregarded all of this, or rather, he didn't care at all! Under such circumstances, many things were simply insignificant.

Anyway!

It's all in the past. What exactly happened in Wano Country is now meaningless and doesn't need to be taken too seriously. After all, it's not a big deal anymore; it's just a minor issue.

For this reason, Seimei has never conducted any further investigation. However, Kurozumi Higurashi is different. Kurozumi Higurashi is very clear that history is very important, even though Wano Country is now completely in the hands of the young lord.

but!

The greatest and most important benefit comes from having complete control over history. This is why this point is so important and fundamental. Mastering all of this will bring the greatest benefits!

This point is absolutely crucial, or rather, its importance is beyond question. It can be said without reservation that this is the most fundamental and essential core of the matter, and there is absolutely no need to doubt it.

Kurozumi Mushimi was very familiar with all of this, so she searched carefully and explored all of history.

as predicted!

As time went by, Kurozumi Higurashi indeed found that familiar history, and a very familiar one at that! It can be said that the changes brought about by Kurozumi Higurashi's discovery of this history were absolutely very important, which represented the importance of the Kurozumi clan.

"Yes!"

"and!"

"Back then, the power that ruled the world for the Kurozumi clan was the Onmyoji and the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons). The leader of the Kurozumi clan was a special Devil Fruit user who possessed the power to control Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits. At that time, Wano Country had hundreds of Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits, which is the Hyakki Yagyō in the legends of Wano Country. However, as time went by, the Hyakki Yagyō gradually disappeared."

"after all!"

"Although the Kurozumi clan had a way to leave the Devil Fruit in Wano Country after the death of the Devil Fruit user, the entire Kurozumi clan gradually became decadent as they came to rule. They no longer cared about so much power, because with the protection of the five major families, they had already secured their position as the Emperor of Wano Country without any trouble."

"Ok!"

Listening to Kurozumi Musashi's explanation, Seimei nodded knowingly. How should I put it? Well, it was entirely within my expectations. This situation was almost exactly what I had anticipated, or rather, it was exactly the same thing that I had considered.

after all!

As time goes by, when you have enough power to control everything, you won't care about having more power anymore. This is not strange, and it's quite normal for the entire Wano Country.

strength!

right!

These things corrupt people's hearts, and the situation of the Black Charcoal Clan is quite normal, or rather, there is absolutely no problem with it. However, what they don't understand is that problems only arise when the five major families become too powerful. The more power they wield, the more rampant their greed becomes, and that is the most terrifying thing!

That's why, as time went on, things started to go wrong.

Kurotan Muchan continued, "Young Master! Just as you guessed, as time went by, problems still arose, or rather, these were problems that were bound to occur. It's truly laughable!"

"800 years ago! When the rule of the Black Charcoal Clan was still in effect, a powerful nation came to this country. The name of this country is not recorded, but one thing is certain: this country was powerful enough, and its power was absolutely beyond doubt."

"Therefore!"

"The arrival of this country dealt a devastating blow to the Kurozumi clan. They forced the Kozuki clan to forge the Poneglyphs and supported the Kozuki clan to become the shoguns of Wano Country. This is the entire history of Wano Country."

"This is why the Kozuki clan has been trying to get rid of the Kurotan clan all along, and as time has passed, they have gradually reached that point."

"Ugh!"

With a slight sigh and a shake of her head, Kurozumi Musashi felt helpless about the situation. She had given up her most powerful abilities—the power of the Onmyoji and the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons)! And what was the result?

A problem has arisen! As time has passed, a huge problem has emerged, one that is fundamentally unchangeable! This is precisely what makes it so despairing and frustrating, because you are completely powerless to change anything and have absolutely no solutions!

And that is the biggest problem, and the one that makes people feel most hopeless.

This is the fundamental reason why Wano Country changed from the Emperor to the Shogun. Because! You are no longer the king of a country, but a vassal of another country. In that case, you are naturally unworthy of the title of king, and it is most appropriate to change it to Shogun.

"Hehehe~~~"

With a sarcastic smile, Seimei shook his head calmly and said, "It really feels ironic. All of this is because the Kurozumi clan abandoned their most powerful strength."

"but!"

"never mind."

Seimei shook his head calmly and said gently, "The past is the past, Granny Hachichan! Put this history in the school so that everyone can gradually learn all the fundamental history, and in this way, completely change Wano Country."

Seimei, of course, understood what Granny Musashi's main purpose was. This was the most fundamental and important goal! It was to change things, to change everything. So, to put it bluntly, what do you think the outcome would be? It's already self-evident.

just now!

Seimei ensured that this history was thoroughly imprinted throughout Wano Country, making it impossible to change even if one wanted to. This naturally brought enormous benefits to his rule. To put it bluntly, the benefits brought by this change were the greatest!

Chapter 190: The Possibilities Brought by Domineering Aura!

"Hmm~"

Kurotan Muchan pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "Young Master! The old woman is considering that this powerful country must be the one that was overthrown by the World Government, which was formed by 20 kings during the blank 100 years 800 years ago."

800 years ago!

actually!

What exactly happened is not a big deal for the major powers. Basically, everyone knows and is very clear about what happened back then, and they also know what the subsequent outcome was. The reason is very simple!

Although the World Government has been diligently concealing these matters, as time goes on, the possibility of problems arising is still very high—that's beyond doubt!

Therefore, under such circumstances, what do you think the outcome will be? Actually, it's already a foregone conclusion, there's no need to doubt it at all, and in fact, the subsequent outcome is already a foregone conclusion.
