Leisurely times always pass quickly.
Nearly half a month had passed.
During this time, Kenji mostly stayed with Rumi.
Of course, he wasn't the only one in the Pleasure Quarter.
Oden, the son of the Wano Country's Shogun, had been recuperating in the Pleasure Quarter for the past half-month.
During this period, the Shogun's government, which is Oden's biological father, sent a group of people to pick him up and take him to the Shogun's palace to recover, but they couldn't persuade the young prince.
From the looks of it, this young prince seemed quite content and unwilling to leave.
As for these matters, Kenji believed they had nothing to do with him. Although he did send Oden to the Pleasure Quarter, it wasn't his idea that he refused to leave during his recuperation.
It could only be blamed on Oden's youthful vigor and abundant energy, making it difficult for him to control his great desires.
Normally, it wouldn't have much impact, as Oden himself was a strong person.
But, his injuries hadn't healed yet. While external wounds might have, internal injuries weren't so easy to recover from.
If near-fatal severe injuries were that easy to recover from, the Beasts Pirates' cadres wouldn't have been completely wiped out by Aramaki later on.
Due to being in the Pleasure Quarter and relentlessly exerting himself, Oden's internal injuries not only didn't improve over the past half-month but even showed signs of worsening.
To this, Kenji could only say: Kid, if you're weak, practice more! If you can't, then learn more from your old man!
In fact, Oden was quite impressed with Kenji.
After all, for the past half-month, within the Pleasure Quarter, and even throughout Flower Capital, the legend of 'So Amazing' Mister had been circulating.
Almost everyone knew that there was a man who was extremely strong, so much so that his nickname directly used the simple yet direct term 'So Amazing'.
Of course, not everyone believed these rumors.
But everyone saying he's 'So Amazing' made those who doubted start to doubt themselves, that's just how herd mentality works.
However, Kenji hadn't been doing nothing these past few days.
In his own words, it was a combination of work and leisure.
Anyway, he had made proper arrangements for the investigation of Pluton, assigning a Marine squad led by Kuzan to investigate and gather relevant intelligence.
However, it must be said that while legends related to Pluton were easy to collect, information on Pluton's actual body was extremely difficult to obtain.
In half a month, the Marine squad led by Kuzan couldn't be said to have gained nothing, but they certainly had no leads.
Many rumors were collected, but there was no real, effective intelligence.
After all, Kenji's system showed no activity at all.
'It seems that to accomplish this, I'll have to find the Kozuki family head...'
One day, Kenji was once again drinking and having fun with Oden, and as he watched the uninhibited Oden at the banquet, he was deep in thought.
'This kid... he probably doesn't know about the actual Pluton yet, right?'
'But you can't be sure...'
From Oden's personal career, he caused too much trouble early on, leading Kozuki Sukiyaki, his father, to disown him.
It wasn't until recent years that Oden did some good deeds, restoring his reputation and even gaining the love of the people of Wano Country.
Only then did Sukiyaki restore their father-son relationship.
However, the relationship had only been restored for a short time. In such a short period, would Sukiyaki tell Oden all the secrets of Pluton?
After careful consideration, Kenji felt that the chances were slim.
'Forget it, let's wait for Kuzan's investigation progress.' Kenji raised his hand and tilted his head, draining the wine in his cup.
Beside him, Rumi gently raised her delicate hand, tenderly wiping the wine stain from his lips.
This scene was witnessed by Oden at the table, causing him a pang of jealousy.
However, being in the throes of drink, his attention was quickly drawn to the courtesans around him again.
"Hmph! Although I don't have an Oiran to accompany me, I have beauties on both sides..."
Oden silently compared for a moment, then burst into a happy smile, feeling like he had won.
Kenji didn't know Oden's thoughts at the moment, nor did he bother to use Observation Haki to perceive and read other people's minds.
At this moment, he was considering the issue of the [Giant Bloodline] trait's advancement.
'Hmm, wait a bit longer... If the Pluton intelligence mission still can't be resolved, then...'
Kenji turned his head and looked at Oden, who was not far away, surrounded by beauties, drinking and having a great time.
He observed the latter for a moment, then finally shook his head.
'Forget it, this guy and his father... it's hard to get useful information.'
Whether Oden or Sukiyaki, both were tough nuts to crack. Trying to obtain intelligence about Pluton through coercive means would only make it more difficult.
Kenji thought about it until the end, feeling that if it really didn't work, he would use a cheat, a foresight cheat.
Anyway, he had a rough idea of Pluton's location.
'Also, there's the side quest of escorting Shiki as insurance.'
Kenji's heart stirred, and the content of the side quest reappeared in his vision.
Similar to the main mission reward, it was also an assignable upgrade reward.
And to stably upgrade and advance the [Giant Bloodline] trait, the assignable upgrade reward was undoubtedly the best choice.
"That's enough for today!"
A moment later, Kenji stood up and waved casually at the drunk Oden.
Then, led by Rumi, he went to the room on the second floor.
After entering the room, Kenji picked up a book with a bookmark and continued to read with a beauty by his side, adding fragrance to his reading.
The content of this book was similar to a gazetteer of Wano Country.
What Kenji was more interested in was the history of Wano Country's major families in the book.
Soon, Rumi lay in Kenji's arms.
Kenji turned page after page, finishing the history of the Kozuki clan, limited only to the recorded history.
Then, he closed the book, looked down at the half-exposed curves of the young woman, and his heart stirred.
"Rumi, have you heard of... Amatsuki Toki?"
