86. A knife
"Ah? Hasn't that guy Kanjuro come here yet?" Denjiro said a little strangely, "He came back before me."
Kinemon explained: "Lord Allen, I can explain this problem. Although Kanjuro is a magician, his painting skills are very poor. The success rate of his magic is related to his painting skills, so he often
There will be some unexpected situations. I think something unexpected happened this time too."
Allen was noncommittal.
Kanjuro, who has been a comedian since he was a child, played Mitsuki Oden so well that in his previous life, he would have been wronged if he was not given a statuette.
But who made him meet Allen? As the 'lord', he not only knows who is the traitor and who is the loyal minister, but also holds a handful of cards, so he can naturally handle it calmly.
Allen said: "Then don't wait for Kanjuro, Raizo, go and call Miss Toki over, and let's discuss how to defeat the Black Carbon Orochi."
Judging from what Kozuki Toki has done in Guri in the past few days, she is a woman who is more suitable as a leader than Oden, but she used to hide her light under her husband's wings in the past. As long as she is given a little space to display, she will
Can bloom powerful energy.
This is much more reliable than Kozuki Oden.
In order to avoid a long night and a lot of dreams, Allen decided to go straight through.
In the end, the Black Carbon Orochi has reached his limit. As for Kaido, let that guy Oden handle it. After all, Kaido is far from Oden's opponent now.
In the meeting hall, people quickly gathered.
Allen scanned around and asked: "Why didn't you see Bucky? Where did he go? Shanks, have you seen him?"
In the past few days, Bucky often ran to the study room in Daming Mansion, sometimes staying there for a long time, and sometimes he would look for Shanks with nothing to do, and the two often fought.
Today I suddenly realized that this kid was missing.
Shanks shook his head: "I followed Miss Shi to help everyone in Jiuli City today, and I was not with Bucky. That guy is not in the house... Couldn't he be looking for some treasure?"
According to Shanks' guess, this is very likely to happen.
The country of Wano has a long history, and I don't know how many things have been buried in the past hundreds of years. Based on Shanks' understanding of Bucky, maybe this guy is eyeing some treasures buried in the soil.
No wonder Teacher Baki ran to the library, probably to collect some clues about the treasure.
Allen thought about the idea that Bucky spent his whole life hunting for treasure. He was even imprisoned in Impel Down City because he happened to discover a secret navy base while searching for treasure, so he could understand.
"Then let's ignore him for now and talk about this operation." Allen and Kozuki sat at the top of the table, and Momonosuke and Hiyori were held in Kozuki's arms. "I have an ability.
We can all be sent quietly to the Flower Capital, well, to be more precise, we can be sent directly to the General's Mansion.
However, when I was sorting through the past data these days, I found something wrong. I found that when Oden was still working as a daimyo in Guri, funds would often be lacking for no reason, and there was no record of the whereabouts of these funds.
, this is a bit strange.”
Allen picked up some of the account books on the table, and he had marked a lot of them densely.
Allen's hard work these days has not been in vain. The effect he had when he served as the adjutant of the Warring States Period in the Navy was revealed, and he discovered some loopholes based on clues.
Kanjuro happens to be responsible for the incoming and outgoing of these funds.
Obviously, this young man has shown some flaws when managing funds.
But other people will not think of the traitor because of this. After all, these people have lived together for many years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that their relationship is as close as brothers. If Allen points out that Kanjuro is the traitor from the very beginning, the effect will only be
Counterproductive.
Therefore, he kept giving guidance.
The account book was passed to Kinemon. He was the leader of the Nine Red Scabbard Heroes and the chief steward of Kozuki Oden. He had an impression of many of the accounts in his hand. He couldn't see them at first, but he was revealed by Allen.
It will be obvious after marking it.
Everyone was a little suspicious of this situation, but they didn't think about the traitor.
Kinemon touched the small beard on his chin with his hand and said: "The funds are managed by Kanjuro. We need to wait for him to come back before asking carefully. What does Mr. Allen want to explain by raising these things?"
This is the crux of the problem. Everyone believes that Allen will not talk about this for no reason.
Allen looked around and then said: "Please allow me to keep this matter a secret. When Kanjuro comes back, the answer to the mystery will be officially revealed."
As soon as he finished speaking, a guard opened the door and barged in.
"Report, Lord Kanjuro is back, and Bakijiro is back with him."
The door was pushed open, and Kanjuro with long red hair and bangs walked in together with Baki. Shanks rushed out and hugged Baki's neck.
"Hey, Bucky, you guy, aren't you sneaking away to hunt for treasure again? I searched for you for a long time but couldn't find you. I thought you were lost."
This is the most common way Shanks and Bucky get along. The two of them are definitely close.
"Hmph, Uncle Bucky will never get lost." Bucky stiffened and pushed Shanks away calmly, "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
Seeing that the eyes were focused on him and Baki, Kanjuro scratched his head in embarrassment and explained: "I had a problem halfway on the bird I drew and couldn't hold on. I happened to meet Baki in the wild, so I followed him.
He came back together."
According to the past, there would be no problem with Kanjuro's rhetoric, because his painting skills have always been unreliable.
But now everyone is a little suspicious. It's a coincidence that the two of them met together.
Only Allen's face turned gloomy for a moment just now.
Something unexpected happened!
He never expected that something went wrong at this time. Bucky's reaction at that moment when Shanks' host Bucky just did not escape Allen's eyes.
According to the past contact habits between Bucky and Shanks, it would never be like what happened just now.
In particular, he knew that an old witch who could completely transform into someone else had come to Jiuli. At this time, Allen knew that there might be something wrong with Bucky at a moment's thought.
I just don’t know if something happened to Bucky?
No.
Probably not. Shanks has Bucky's life card. If something happened to Bucky, Shanks wouldn't be aware of it.
Allen breathed a sigh of relief, stood up calmly, and walked towards Kanjuro naturally: "We have been looking for Bucky for a long time but couldn't find him, so we can meet you all. It can only be said to be fate.
.”
He pulled Shanks behind him and stretched out his hand as if to touch Bucky's head as usual.
While his palm was in mid-air, he closed his fingers and a transparent, colorless and sharp long knife appeared silently, slashing off one of Bucky's arms in the air.
