One Piece: God Killer

Chapter 320 Temporarily leaving Wano Country

As the Biful successfully landed in Wano Country with Gao Shifu, Brooke, Li Tong, Danjuma and others, the manpower stationed in Wano Country at dawn ushered in a relatively large replacement.

Profik took Gao Shifu, Lelf and Brooke to temporarily leave the country of Wano, leaving the domestic affairs to Morana and Star to take full responsibility. Morana once managed the Star Port, and to some extent he was more suitable for overall planning than Profik. Coupled with Star's help, the position can be stabilized whether it is force or other aspects.

It's not that he doesn't want to personally take charge in Wano Country, it's because the situation on this sea does not wait for anyone to develop, and there are many things in Wano Country that need to be "linked" with overseas.

For example, the most troublesome food issue is that even if the food stored in Wano Country is estimated according to the best situation, it can only last for another two months. He must find external food input, otherwise, he will really have to rely on "killing big households" to ensure that people don't starve to death.

Events outside Wano will not wait for anyone. Once some opportunities are missed, they will never happen again.

In addition, Brooke couldn't help but return to the sea area in the first half of the Grand Route to find his old buddy Rab. Profik naturally agreed to this.

In previous general meetings, Profik had proposed many new policies. But the two most critical issues - the abolition of samurai and noble privileges, and the land reform of Wano Country - were not touched upon by Profik.

The issue of land and privileges was not discussed, not because Profik wanted to compromise with the nobles of Wano, but because he had no choice.

According to Profik's idea, Wano needs a more thorough "land reform" to distribute the land occupied by nobles and wealthy businessmen to all citizens. Land is no longer the private property of nobles, warriors, and wealthy businessmen, but the public property of all citizens, thus truly realizing land to the tiller.

But he simply didn't have the manpower to implement this arrangement.

It is obviously unrealistic to let those wealthy families divide their own land. Most of the newly established "National Protector Army" in Wano Country are guys with limited educational level. Although Daybreak has begun to recruit people locally in Wano Country, it still doesn't matter. Still not enough.

The issue of the privileges of samurai and nobles is similar. In the short term, the management of Wano cannot be separated from these guys. Forcibly abolishing their privileges will inevitably lead to extremely serious social unrest. At that time, it is likely that there will be a situation where "the gain outweighs the loss".

There is a solution, and it's simple.

Profik once bought some stores in the Shampoo Islands and set up a "talent recruitment market." Unlike those auction houses that sell people under the guise of employment agencies, Profic has really recruited a lot of people, including quite a few people with "excellent" educational levels who are qualified for land reform and administrative work.

He planned to screen among these people to solve the problem of shortage of manpower. After arriving at the Shampoo Islands, let them take a boat to Wano Country, and at the same time, they can implement the "land reform" policy in Wano Country.

In addition, he also has a plan to "lead the snake out of its hole".

Taking away the land and privileges of the nobles is tantamount to taking away their lifeblood. This group of guys will definitely not give up. If not, they might unite to launch a riot and overthrow General Hiyori's rule.

And once they take action, it will be the best time to "uproot the old forces of Wano Country and catch them all".

Now that Kaido and Orochi have been eliminated, the main conflict in Wano has naturally become the conflict between the nobles and the people. Without solving these old forces, Wano cannot enter a new era.

Moreover, now is the best time to integrate Wano.

The toughest and most hard-core among the old guard have been killed and captured by Kaido and Orochi.

Those wealthy merchants and noble warriors who succumbed to Orochi were also suppressed by Kaido and Orochi, and their armed forces were seriously insufficient. It can be said that Wano is at its weakest stage in recent years.

The resistance you may encounter now is the weakest. If you wait until these nobles recover their strength, there are piles of warriors, and they build their homes like fortresses, it will be difficult to attack them again.

Therefore, you have to be quick if you want to do it!

Hiyori Kozuki and others are aware of this determination and attitude, and at least they do not object to it.

The reason why Profik dared to carry out such a risky plan was precisely because of the support of these people to some extent.

Needless to say, Hiyori, Morana provided her with "personal protection". On the one hand, she taught her to learn, on the other hand, she prevented anyone from trying to harm her through assassination, while also ensuring her influence over Hiyori.

Sukiyaki is the most resistant, but even he doesn't really oppose Profic's policies. He just doesn't want these policies to come from Profic's hands and strives for as much dominance as possible for the Kozuki clan.

Although the Shigetsuki Yasu family, as the Daimyo of Hakumai, can be regarded as the "first noble" in a certain sense in Wano, their roots are much deeper than Hiyori, the general of Wano. However, he had the highest ideological consciousness and took the initiative to express his willingness to take the responsibility of singling out the Japanese generals' policies.

Because the Red Sheath Samurai have no family ties behind them, they are very supportive of these policies that are beneficial to Wano.

Especially Asura Boy. This man was originally a thief in the mountains, and he knew best how difficult the lives of ordinary people were. He is a fairly decent man. How could he be a bandit if he really couldn't survive? During the years when Kaido and Orochi ruled, he saw the deteriorating situation of Wano Country and felt pain in his heart.

Unlike Denjiro Kawamatsu and others, Asura Doji is not so much a "retainer" loyal to the Kozuki clan as a "private person" of Kozuki Oden. The only one he admired, loyal to, and willing to sacrifice his life for was Kozuki Oden. The reason why he was willing to come to the Flower Capital was just because he felt incredible about the "prophecy" being shattered and wanted to find out.

But after he had a long conversation with Profik as the current top expert in Wano and the actual ruler of Guri, he was convinced for the second time in his life.

The reason why Kozuki Oden convinced Asura Doji back then was because of his extraordinary force and amazing courage, as well as his achievements in changing Kuri. But now, he clearly saw in Profik a spirit that was not inferior to that of Kozuki Oden. What's more, he did what Oden-sama failed to do - save Wano Country from Kaido and Orochi.

Although he doesn't seem to be as sharp as Oden, he seems to be a little more intelligent and calm?

Such a guy is said to be a big figure overseas. If you follow him, you will definitely make Wano Country a better place...

Therefore, when Profik came to him specifically and explained to him in detail the plan to transform the country of Wano, Asura Boy made a promise to Profik without hesitation.

"Mr. Profic, don't worry!" Asura boy drew his sword and hit the pillar, swearing, "I will never let anyone harm General Hiyori and the country of Wano!"

With these arrangements, Profik felt confident and left Wano Country temporarily.
