Kapitel 953

Chapter 953 One Time Fox

It starts off with Kawamatsu’s flashback, back when Hiyori left him after leaving him a letter.
The scene changes to Zoro chasing Gyukimaru with the blood he left on the ground, but he seems to be lost again.

—Bandit’s Bridge
Kawamatsu is talking to Hiyori, and explaining to her about Ringo.
Like Hakumai, Ringo was ruled by the Shimotsuki Clan.
There’s usually a fox by the side of Daimyo “Shimotsuki Ushimaru”, they’re both skillful users of sword.

In Ringo, they have the tradition of using the swords that the swordsmen used when they were alive for the tombstones of their graves.
There’re even meitos among them, which attract many thieves.

Then Kawamatsu begins to remember how he met that Koma-fox, “Onimaru”:
Back then he saved Onimaru, who was severely injured, and gave it food.
It’s revealed that Onimaru had been protecting the graves for 5 years, fighting the thieves.
Kawamatsu went there to get the tombstones, but Onimaru stopped him and bit his arm.
Kawamatsu told Onimaru with tears: I don’t know how to explain this to you, but the Wano’s fight isn’t over yet. 13 years later the samurais will unite together and defeat the Beasts Pirates, these blades will be useful at that time. If you can’t forgive me, then take this arm.

But for some reasons, Onimaru let him go.
After that, Kawamatsu stay there and stopped all thieves while taking their weapons as “Gyukimaru of the Bandit’s Bridge”.
However, at one point he went to the Flower Capital to search for food and was captured, he never returned for 13 years.

Kawamatsu came back to take the blades that were hidden here.
On the way to get the blades, they meet up with Zoro, who was lost.
Gyukimaru disappeared behind a door while Zoro was chasing him.
Kawamatsu says that this is the entrance to where he hide the blades, after they entered they see that someone has been living here.
Gyukimaru, who was hiding in the dark, silently transforms and he leaves, it seems that he is.......?!
Then Hiyori speaks to Zoro in a very serious manner: If your sword is really Shusui, then please give it back to Wano country.
Zoro: That’s my sword!
Hiyori continues: In return, I will give you meito “Enma”, which was used by my father when he was alive.

It’s the legendary meito that left a scar on Kaido, and the only one to do so.

Eigentlich ist wiedermal nicht wirklich viel passiert...wenigstens ist das Waffen-Problem gelöst...
Aber der Rest vom Kapitel hätte durchaus "schneller" erzählt werden können...

Finde ich nicht. Also mit dem schneller erzählen.
Der Rückblick (zusammen mit dem, was wir schon über ihn wissen) zeigt in meinen Augen, dass Kawamatsu, dem Bild, dass ich mir von den Samurai aus Wano erwartet habe am nächsten kommt.

Interessant ist auch die Sache mit dem Schwert. Ich bin allerdings nicht überzeugt, dass Zorro einfach so sein Schwert eintauschen wird.

ansich wieder ein langweiliges kapitel.

ja, kawamatsu ist ein cooler kerl, aber der rückblick war länger als nötig und das hätte man eigentlich auch so gemerkt. dass sich der fuchs verwandeln kann find ich fragwürdig... hat er eine menschenfrucht gegessen oder so? und warum gibt er sich nicht zu erkennen, sowas find ich immer blöd...

dass zorro sein schwert eintauschen find, find ich nicht verkehrt, wird ja langsam auch mal zeit, dass zorro wirklich ordentliche schwerter bekommt, langsam hat er das kaliber dazu. und enma als gott der unterwelt passt da doch perfekt.
