Chapter 412: The Status Quo of Wano Country
"Mr. Vir, we can only send you here. If you go ashore with you, you may be discovered by the garrisons of Wano Country."
Kaido's subordinates docked the boat on the shore.
Weir leaped gently, jumped over the sea and landed steadily on the beach on the shore.
Around the Wano Country, there is a large area of sand.
Unless like ‘Dresrosa’, there are huge rocks around the island.
Under the accumulation of waves, most of the world's islands are surrounded by a large area of sand.
"You guys go back and just send it here."
Weir turned around and was about to walk to the island, but was called by Kaido's subordinates.
"Sir Ville, this is an emergency signal flare. If you talk to Kototsuki Oden and are besieged in the Wano Kingdom, please fire this signal flare.
After this signal flare is launched, our Beast Pirates will launch a large-scale attack on Wano Country to cover your retreat.”
Needless to say, such careful preparation must be Tyrman's actions. Kaido or Jack and others would not think so thoroughly.
Weir solemnly put away the signal flare. This thing is very important. He doesn't want to be left in the Wano Kingdom because of being besieged by Kozuki Oden and others.
After climbing the island where Wano Country is located, it is a wasteland after walking through a soft beach.
This wasteland should be well managed, with weeds and bushes. To be precise, the current location of Vir is not considered to be in Wano Country.
Looking up, there is a towering city wall in the distance.
The city wall is painted black and is made of rocks, at least a few dozen meters high. With Vier's eyes, you can see from a distance that there are some guards patrolling the city wall with swords.
Weir was not in a hurry to sneak into the "Wano Country". It should be difficult to sneak into the "Wano Country". He needs to understand the situation first.
And since there is a city wall, there must be a city gate.
Weir was not making random guesses, but based on his master's habit.
Weir's master likes to eat fish very much, and through the master's narration during his lifetime, the people of "Wano Country" also like to eat fish very much.
From the detailed map provided by Quinin to Vir, we can see that the islands of Wano Country are very small, so the yield of grain and vegetable is not very high. The Wano Country is completely closed to the country, and there is no trade at all.
Those merchant ships that were coming and going were not only unable to sell goods in the Wano Country, but also could be attacked by the samurai of the Wano Country.
Over time, there were no merchant ships passing by around the Wano Kingdom.
In Weir's view, this is completely a desperate attempt. Without trade, it means no development.
Why did Vier and Dover do such a big weapon business in the new world because they know how to trade.
After patrolling the island where Wano Country is located for a long time, Vill discovered that the walls around Wano Country are round, which may have wrapped the entire Wano Country.
This made Vill frown. The tall city wall of Wano Country is simply a protective wall. It is very difficult to attack Wano Country head-on, so it is no wonder that the world government did not destroy Wano Country.
The dark wall made Vir think of a possibility, but the fact was too exaggerated and he didn't believe it.
If it is true, then Kaido Pirates want to forcibly break through the "Wano Kingdom", it is completely a dream.
Even the city wall cannot be broken, so how can we talk about breaking it head-on?
However, the possibility that Weir imagined was not high, so he didn't care too much.
Finally, Vill found the main entrance to the Wano Kingdom.
They were two city gates opened under the huge black wall. The two city gates were red and there was no way to tell what material they were made of, at least ten meters high and five meters wide.
The city gate is locked, but along the way to the sea, there is a flat road paved with gray stone slabs, which leads directly to the sea from the gate of the "Wano Kingdom".
This stone road should be prepared for the fishermen of the Wano Country.
Although the Wano Country is closed to the country, many fishermen go out to sea to fish and return in the evening every morning.
This also ensures that the Wano Country will not have a famine when its grain production is low.
The marine resources in the Pirate World can no longer be described as rich.
The only victims at sea have a fishing rod, so there is little chance of starvation.
Small and medium-sized fish, shellfish, sea kingfish, etc. can only be afraid of dangers at sea, and you will definitely gain something if you go to sea to catch fish.
Vill continued to wait near the city gate, waiting for the return fishermen.
As long as there are people in and out, Weir has the opportunity to sneak in.
After waiting for almost six hours, Ville discovered that there were large fishing boats in the distance beginning to approach the shore one after another. In order not to be discovered, Ville chose to hide among the shrubs on the shore.
At least a few hundred people went out to sea to catch fish. These fishermen who returned from fishing just fixed the fishing boats to the shore and ignored them, without any fear of losing them.
Hundreds of fishermen, carrying their daily harvests, walked towards the gate of the Wano Kingdom, talking and laughing.
Around these fishermen, there were also some samurai wearing kimonos and knives hanging around their waists.
The dress of these samurai is somewhat similar to the dress of the fox, Kinemon in the original work.
Strange hairstyles, loose kimono, and wooden clogs under your feet.
While these warriors were alert to patrolling around, they occasionally said something to the fishermen.
Because the distance is too far, Vir can hear a few interruptions one after another.
"Today's tax revenue is two goals, and after entering the city..."
“…It’s rising again, yesterday was still a little bit nine, why….”
"Food..., winter is coming soon..., there is nothing we can do about it."
They were all irrelevant chats, but from these trivial words, Vir could hear that the 'Wano Country' should be very short of food.
I think so, living in such a giant city wall, the inland area is obviously not too large. In addition, the area required for humans to live in is deducted, so the remaining farming area is even smaller.
Weir followed the fishermen and slowly came to the city gate.
The warriors beat the city gate rhythmically with the handle of the knife. A figure popped out from the city wall above. After confirming that there was no abnormality, the red city gate slowly opened.
Weir was so happy that it was also a good choice to mix among these fishermen.
But after taking two steps, Weir stopped and flew back to his previously hidden position.
Weir observed that each of the fishermen entering and leaving needed to go through the inspection of the warriors at the city gate, and also had to show a circular sign. Weir was not sure what it was.
Now that you can get up rashly, you will be discovered. The more important reason why Weir returned is that someone is monitoring the city gate with his domineering attitude.
This surprised Weir. Isn’t he just a fisherman who comes and goes out every day? He even uses the domineering spirit of seeing and hearing.
The difficulty of infiltration has increased, but Weir is not too worried.
He once became a killer and sneaked into many places.
As long as he has patience, he has the confidence to walk openly in the "Wano Kingdom" without revealing his identity.
However, there is still too little information now, and he needs to take a hostage and question it.
