Sword Heart left. He wanted to take his own journey and see the world with his own eyes.
After that, Roger and the others also left. They had already stayed here for too long. Next, they should focus their energy on the demon lord.

Also, Roger wanted to find An's location. He lost contact with An after coming to Wano Country. Although she should be fine with her strength, it would be better to go and check it out.
And within these few days, Wano Country experienced another great purge.
Originally, Himura Kenshin had appeared, and Kozuki Oden also came with people, but they couldn't find him no matter what. Kozuki Oden, in his anger, directly started a great purge, and all those he considered suspicious were arrested.
Under this kind of high pressure, Wano Country finally couldn't take it anymore.
Of course, theoretically, they could have endured it further. After all, there is no limit to endurance. No matter what happens, they can just bear with it.
However, that's only when there is no one taking the lead.
The Kurozumi family, who had been preparing for a long time, led a group of people to rebel. Soon after the Thunder God and An left, Kaido returned. With Kaido's power, they carried out a revolt against the Kozuki family in Udon.
They killed the warden of Udon prison, freed the prisoners inside, and joined forces with the prisoners to attack the Flower Capital.
On the way to advance, they spread the news of the riot here to Wano Country. As long as one person takes the lead, there will be no lack of people following behind. People who could have endured it finally carried out a 'rebellion' under the leadership of some people.
So when Sword Heart returned to the land of Wano Country, the country was right at the beginning of local 'rebellions'.
Kozuki Oden himself wasn't very interested in these rebellions. Although he was angry, he didn't think that these ant-like people could threaten him. He simply ordered the Daimyo in various places to suppress them, while he himself remained in Kuri to search for Himura Kenshin.
He didn't know that Himura Kenshin and the others were in the sky, and that cloud was originally flowing around Wano Country, so the place where Sword Heart came down was Ringo instead of Kuri. Ringo was already very far away from Kuri.
Rebellions also broke out in Ringo. Although the Ringo Daimyo also carried out suppression, the rebellion here was the most serious, because the rebels here were not ordinary people, but...
Shimotsuki Ushimaru, the son of the current Ringo Daimyo!
Shimotsuki Ushimaru was originally basically the next Ringo Daimyo. However, he discovered that his father had become a little strange since returning from the Flower Capital. Originally, he had some criticisms about Kozuki Oden's actions, but after returning, he strictly carried out Kozuki Oden's unreasonable orders.
Shimotsuki Ushimaru believed that Kozuki Oden had done something that caused his father's personality to change greatly. Therefore, after the Kurozumi family initially launched a riot in Udon, he decisively left home and led his followers to start a rebellion.
And soon, his team had grown to several thousands of people. This was already a fairly powerful force among all the rebel armies, and should be second only to the Kurozumi and Udon prisoner joint forces.
So in general, this so-called rebellion still had to be led by the original aristocratic families.
However, when Sword Heart came to Ringo, he found that there was not only Shimotsuki Ushimaru here.
In the area where 'Ringo' and 'Hakumai' almost meet, Shimotsuki Ushimaru was leading dozens of subordinates and running wildly along the way.
"If you give a call to arms, all the underworld of Wano Country will join us, right?"
Beside Shimotsuki Ushimaru was none other than Hyougoro!
He said these words to Hyougoro. Once Hyougoro joined them, then with his reputation, he could bring thousands of powerful warriors. At that time, they would have a better chance to overthrow the current Kozuki family!
He learned by chance that Hyougoro was here, so he rushed over non-stop. Who knew that the news was leaked, and the government's pursuers quickly caught up.
He only brought dozens of people, while there were hundreds of pursuers behind them, so they were running wildly towards the location of their base.
And Hyougoro had no choice but to follow them first.
Hyougoro, riding a horse, said, "I'm sorry to Oden, I can't do this kind of thing anymore."
He still felt a little guilty, because he believed that it was his meeting with Sword Heart, and saying that he was the number one warrior of Wano Country, that led Kozuki Oden astray.
Although the words that An had said to him in Hope were still vivid in his mind, the inertia of thinking for hundreds of years could not be easily liberated.
"Kozuki Oden is crazy!"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru couldn't help but shout, "I know that he used to be familiar with you, so what? I've also met him several times before, and I also know that although he acts absurdly and his brain isn't very bright, he wouldn't do this kind of thing."
"However, the past is the past, and the present is the present! The current Kozuki Oden is a madman who wants to destroy Wano Country. He controls my father and forces the Daimyo of various villages to take revenge for him. He has been blinded by his own personal desires!"
Hyougoro was silent, and he actually knew this too.
"Bad news, Boss! We're surrounded!"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru was about to say something to Hyougoro, but suddenly heard the guard beside him say nervously. He immediately raised his head to pay attention to the surroundings, and found that samurai were indeed surrounding them from all directions.
They seemed to be prepared.
Originally, there were hundreds of people chasing them, and now hundreds more people have surrounded them...
Their speed gradually slowed down, and the samurai around them also showed their swords. The leading person was exceptionally strong, and he held a long sword and aimed it at Shimotsuki Ushimaru, and said coldly, "Okay Ushimaru, you should know what you're doing, right?"
"Come back with me now, and the Daimyo might spare your life."
Shimotsuki Ushimaru bit his lip and said, "Don't dream, I must kill Kozuki Oden, so that I can liberate my father from his control!"
"Disloyal and unfilial," the big man coldly shouted, "Then I'll capture you back!"
With his order, the samurai around him rushed over like hungry wolves and tigers. Shimotsuki Ushimaru held the sword in his hand and immediately slashed forward.
Hyougoro watched the samurai constantly fighting around him, and he had no choice but to join the battle.
Because he knew that he was also among their goals. Once Shimotsuki Ushimaru was defeated, then he would inevitably be captured and sent to Oden's side.
If only I had Conqueror's Haki like Ann...
Hyougoro thought of the powerful and mysterious woman he had seen before, and couldn't help but sigh.
