One Piece: Mandala Swordsman

Chapter 552 I Will Get Kaido's Blood on My Hands

Oden was a dual-wielding swordsman.

He wields the famous swords Ame no Habakiri and Enma.

When he was ambushed and imprisoned by Kaido's subordinates, he gave up on escaping.

He then handed his sword to his wife, who was visiting him.

It was then handed over by his wife to his two heirs.

The Ame no Habakiri was given to the eldest son, Momonosuke.

Enma is kept by his eldest daughter, Hiyori.

"You even know about this?"

Hiyori was shocked by Roman's words.

Surprisingly, other people also knew about this.

This matter was kept very secret at the time.

Otherwise, Hiyori, who is not good at fighting, would not have been able to hold onto Enma until now.

"I understand, but please keep it a secret as to how I know."

Roman said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"I understand."

There are many talented and extraordinary people.

There will always be people in this world who have their own secret weapons.

The woman in front of me is probably an outstanding individual as well.

It would be very impolite to continue asking.

Hiyori wisely kept quiet.

This made her feel more at ease.

She knew more than she thought.

However, this does indeed show that she is on his side.

“I understand, but Enma is an extremely dangerous sword. It is also a very dangerous thing for you to try to wield it.”

The famous sword "Enma" is ranked among the twenty-one Great Swords.

The scabbard has flower-shaped carvings, and the guard is three-lobed.

It was crafted by Shimotsuki Kozaburo, a famous swordsmith from Wano Country.

It was created by Kuina's grandfather.

The X-shaped scar on Kaido's waist and abdomen was caused by Oden using Enma and Ame no Habakiri.

However, Enma is more dangerous than Ame no Habakiri.

It is a knife that acts on its own initiative.

The sword will release the user's "Flowing Cherry Blossom" without authorization, unleashing extremely powerful energy.

However, if you're not skilled, you might cut off the excess.

If used by an ordinary person, they would usually be drained of their Haki and die, but if used well, it is an extremely powerful sword.

However, apart from Oden, no one else has been able to control Enma.

"Apart from my father, all the other swordsmen who used that sword..."

Hiyori hesitated a bit.

Enma is extremely dangerous.

The word "Enma" already reveals its terrifying nature.

As the wielder of Enma, she has never used Enma.

It's because she knows she can't control it.

At the same time, she does not advocate that others use Enma.

The risks involved are too great.

If the famous sword she keeps is Ame no Habakiri, she will take it out without hesitation.

But now...

"Please don't worry."

Roman's words were calm, yet powerful.

"If I can't even control Enma, I have no chance of defeating Kaido. Only by mastering power like Kozuki Oden can I have a chance of winning. For that, I need it."

"And please rest assured, I came here to get Kaido's blood on my hands. I was prepared for this long ago, please believe me."

Her eyes were serious.

This is Hiyori's idea.

Swordsmen are always like that.

Arrogant and insane.

Isn't my own father the same?

Always yearning for new power.

Yearning for a new world.

So they set sail without hesitation.

Ah Long is also a swordsman.

She naturally also yearned for conquest.

Hiyori knew that she shouldn't have any other answer but to agree.

She knew she couldn't suppress Yama's power.

But this gentleman might be able to.

She is very strong.

Whether it's strength or spirit.

I shouldn't stop it.

"I understand."

In response, Hiyori buried her head deeply in the tatami mat.

"please."

……

Enma.

One can use the holder's domineering aura on one's own initiative.

And it caused his domineering aura to spiral out of control.

This will exhaust the holder.

Some even went berserk and died.

Even Zoro was first absorbed, and then used mind control to escape the decay.

Even so, Enma was not completely under his control.

It is indeed very powerful.

The moment I saw that knife again.

Roman found out.

"That thing is a bit strange."

Even the usually straightforward Yamato noticed Enma's strangeness.

So-called "idiot intuition"?

"Please be careful with it."

Because of past mistakes, Hiyori didn't even dare to touch it directly with her hands.

Instead, it was wrapped in cloth.

Even so, both Yamato and Roman sensed an ominous feeling.

Roman, in particular, felt it even more acutely.

Perhaps because she is closer to a swordsman.

That knife seemed to be a provocation.

This is not just empty talk from a weak person.

but……

Under Hiyori's astonished gaze, Roman drew his sword and stood up abruptly.
