If it weren't for that damn fisherman Kesha, the treasure house would not have been leaked, and they could still use the empty treasury as an excuse to delay the debt for a long time.

If you don't have money, the Kingdom of Ghosts definitely needs to understand it, show its own country's demeanor, and not press too hard.

But things are different now.

This kind of deception made the Kingdom of Demons very angry. If it wasn't for the sake of face, it would probably not be possible for the Kingdom of Waves to be granted mercy even for a week.

Relations between the two countries have also reached a freezing point.

"Lord Daimyo, please put that fisherman to death immediately as a warning to others! Let the people below see what the consequences will be if you reveal the secret!"

There was a hint of ruthlessness in the eyes of the two officials, and they showed no mercy.

The Daimyo of Wave Country shook his head and replied: "No, that fisherman Kesha can't die yet. I'm more worried about our collusion with pirates being exposed than the debt. This fisherman must know something. I'm sending people to covertly

Find out who went to sea with this fisherman that day, find all suspicious people and monitor them to prevent further leaks of the information."

He knows that some things can be done, but they cannot be exposed to the public.

Collaborating with pirates and killing the people of your own country is a black spot that must not be exposed. If you are not careful, it will cause turmoil in the country.

"Daimyo-sama, you are too worried. We have the noblest bloodline that rules this country. Even if these untouchables know something, at most they will just come over and make useless protests like before, and then forget it as time goes by.

A group of people from the mountains who have not received formal education do not know how to run a country. Neither we nor other countries will allow a group of wild monkeys to come to the forefront. Compared with this, the issue of debt deserves our attention.

.”

The official said confidently.

"However, I am still a little worried. Moreover, we have completely fallen into a passive position regarding the debt issue and cannot delay it any longer. In fact, it is not a big deal if we think about it. We will pay off the debt and then make money from other places.

The money would be nice.”

"What the Daimyo-sama means is..."

The two officials' eyes suddenly lit up.

"I'm going to raise this year's taxes even higher. Anyway, a few people won't starve to death. However, in the next few years, the expenses for ostentation will be simplified."

The Daimyo of the Land of Waves felt extremely sorry.

For a person of his noble status, daily food and clothing, as well as ostentation on important days, require a lot of money.

Otherwise, if the ostentation is small, it will affect the majesty of the daimyo, and the people will not be able to admire the majestic aura of his daimyo, and will not be able to distinguish the gap between himself and ordinary people.

For famous people, this is a matter of face and cannot be dealt with carelessly.

However, the Kingdom of Ghosts is too pressing, so the cost of food and clothing will naturally need to be reduced in the future.

After hearing this, the two officials also sighed bitterly.

Famous families need a certain amount of pomp to show their master's status. Naturally, their families also need a certain amount of pomp to show their corresponding aristocratic status.

If they don't have these, doesn't it mean that their family is the same as the common people?

This is something intolerable to the nobles.

"Now that the Daimyo has made a decision, we will fully support it. We must first pass the Demon Country."

"That's it, it's getting late, you guys..."

The Daimyo of Wave Country nodded, and just as he was about to stand up, a close attendant trotted in from the side door with a flustered expression on his face, and whispered a few words in his ear.

After listening to what the attendant reported, the Daimyo of Wave Country suddenly stood up, with an extremely angry expression on his face.

"Lord Daimyo, what happened?"

The two officials didn't know what happened, but seeing the appearance of the Daimyo of Wave Country, they knew that something big had happened, otherwise they wouldn't have shown such terrifying expressions.

The name of the country of Waves said one word at a time: "Someone has robbed the prison!"

"Prison robbery? Could it be that..."

The two officials seemed to have guessed something, with shock on their faces.

"You guessed it right, the fisherman Kesha was rescued..."

The face of the Daimyo of the Land of Waves was as gloomy as water, and there was a biting coldness in his voice.

"We can't sit back and wait for death now. We must capture the person as soon as possible. We must see him alive and see his body after death..."

Terrifying murderous intentions are brewing in the eyes of the great names of the Land of Waves.

◎

Inside an abandoned factory.

The workers who rescued Kesha laid him down on an old bed, took out healing medicine, and applied it to the wounds on his body to help him stop bleeding and recover from the trauma.

Seeing the shocking marks of whipping on Kesha's body, the workers surrounding him were extremely angry.

People who prayed for the people were treated unfairly.

In addition, the daimyo of the Land of Waves colluded with pirates and conducted behind-the-scenes transactions. The anger accumulated in their hearts has filled the chests of everyone present.

After Dazna applied the ointment to Kesha, he saw the extremely angry eyes of everyone, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, knowing that some things may be irreversible.

People all have a herd mentality.

A man stood up.

The second person will naturally stand up as well.

Then the third person, the fourth person, the fifth person... and then more people will step forward and gather together.

What's more, they now all have a common enemy, the daimyo, the nobles.

In essence, it is not much different from Kesha taking the lead to cause trouble in the famous family.

The only difference is that this time it is not as simple as making trouble, but it is going to turn the whole country upside down, and it will not calm down even then.

The path this country will take in the future is not decided by them, but...someone has already made arrangements.

A girl of only twelve years old, Chiba Kazuhime.

Or maybe it's the country she relies on, the Kingdom of Ghosts.

It's really a good idea. When we first established the factory, we also organized the workers' and farmers' cooperatives to accumulate manpower among the people... Were they also prepared for today?

Dazna felt that his guess might be very close to the answer.

But getting close to the answer is only close to the answer. After all, it is just speculation and there is no practical evidence.

On the contrary, the charge of colluding with pirates has been proven.

All fingers are pointed at the top leaders of the Country of Waves.

At least in the minds of the workers, this accusation was completely confirmed, and there was no room for excuse.

Because of the pirate rebellion, countless young people from the Kingdom of Waves were killed, and many families were torn apart.

The noble class of the Kingdom of Waves colluded with the pirates, and they now have an sworn hatred.

Even Dazna had anger in his heart.

His son-in-law also died in the battle against pirates.

He was left as an old man, with his orphans and widowed mother at home, living a very difficult life.

Even though I told myself that I needed to be rational, my anger for revenge could not be suppressed no matter what.

It is difficult to predict what crazy things people would do under such extreme circumstances.

"Dar...Mr. Dazuna...I am..."

Kesha's voice sounded extremely weak in Dazna's ears.

Dazna also came back to his senses and looked at Kesha who had regained consciousness.

The opponent's body was very weak. After being tortured continuously for so long, his body had already reached its limit.

Dazna also admired the opponent's endurance. For ordinary people, even if they did not die, they would not be able to regain consciousness so quickly.

How much suffering he suffered inside was something that Dazna could not imagine.

"It's okay, Kesha. It's safe here. Don't worry about soldiers from Daming Mansion coming."

Before planning the prison robbery, they had planned an escape route.

In fact, after they made the plan to rob the prison, whether they faced it calmly or regretted such an unwise move, there was no turning back.

Resist.

This kind of thing appeared in the hearts of Dazna and others for the first time.

They don't know what the future holds, and they don't know how to do it. However, they don't intend to accept the name of killing people like this anymore, which is their common understanding.

They need a ruler who can truly think about their own people.

Instead of standing on the heads of the people and constantly sucking blood, squeezing their lives and dignity, and playing with them like clowns.

"Sorry, it's all because of me..."

A guilty look appeared on Kesha's face.
