The Great Pirate Era.
The great seas surge and churn, powerhouses destroy and annihilate, each fighting their own battles. It's utterly—
Demotivating!
I, Russil Kuro, age tw...
Above them in the sky was Kaido!
He didn't have time to greet Quinn at that moment. As he rammed Kuro, he opened his mouth and unleashed several bursts of heat, which directly hit the weapons factory.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A violent explosion erupted from the weapons factory, and the power of the heat blast reduced the factory and the surrounding Spire Mountain to rubble.
Amidst the thick rising smoke, a blood-red, black-gold slash suddenly shot out, heading straight for the blue dragon that Kaido had transformed into.
"Rua!!"
Kaido transformed into his dragon form, gripped his iron club, and roared as he slammed it down on the slashing attack.
Bang!
A shockwave erupted from mid-air, causing the prisoners and pirates below to sway and fall. The ropes suspending Kidd and Killer upside down also swung, causing the entire frame to overturn, but also freeing the two from the water buckets below.
"Get out of my way!"
Kaido's eyes widened, and with a loud shout, he shattered the slash with his arm.
Thump.
He landed steadily, touched the bleeding wound on his chest, and grinned maliciously at the smoke and dust.
Once we reach land, the fighting will be much easier.
"Kaido!!"
Luffy and Killer, who had just recovered, shouted.
"Boss!!"
Quinn was startled and said, "Boss, what's going on...?"
"Quinn, and these brats... I don't have time for you right now."
Kaido glanced at Luffy and Kid, but didn't answer. Instead, he stared intently at the direction of the smoke and dust.
A figure carrying a long sword slowly walked out. As the figure appeared, almost everyone felt a chill in their hearts, their bodies began to tremble involuntarily, and then their eyes rolled back, and they all lay down.
There are only a handful of people who can stand here.
One of the short, old men with hair that resembled blue flames stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his scalp tingling and his breath almost suffocating: "Impossible! Can killing intent materialize to this extent?!"
Kui was also staring at the smoke and dust, sweating profusely, his eyes bulging.
That's not Conqueror's Haki!
That was genuine killing intent!
However, this killing intent can also achieve the 'willpower intimidation' that Conqueror's Haki possesses, and just like Kaido, it is extremely terrifying!
call!
The smoke and dust were blown away, and Kuro, patting the dust off his chest, walked out step by step with his head slightly lowered.
He glanced around, his brow furrowing slightly. "Land...?"
"Ah!! It's you, the one who spews smoke!" Luffy shouted, pointing at Kuro as soon as he saw the newcomer.
"It's the Golden Lion!!" On the other side, Kidd, who had finally managed to untie the ropes, turned grim and instinctively covered his left arm.
That hand was chopped off by him.
"Straw Hat Boy?"
Kuro heard the voice, glanced over, and also saw Kid. "Oh? You two have arrived in Wano Country? It's strange that you're still alive."
"Hey, do you know any important people like this?"
The old man with blue flame hair went over and poked Luffy's leg, quietly asking a question.
Luffy nodded emphatically: "He's the admiral who spews smoke, called the Incense Burner Admiral. When we first set sail, we almost couldn't make it out. He's so powerful!"
As he spoke, he subconsciously touched the 'rice' shaped scar on his chest. The scar used to be crisscrossed, but after he slashed it, it became this shape.
Kuro glared at Luffy, "I am Golden Lion! I am a Vice Admiral!!"
"Hey! Admiral Xianglu, are you fighting Kaido too? Let's defeat him together!" Luffy said with a grin.
"ah?"
Kuro paused for a moment, then looked Luffy up and down. "Have you gone crazy from eating ore all this time? I'm a Marine, and... you should go train for a few more years, kid. I don't have time for you right now."
"Wei Kingdom!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a triangular shockwave flashed out in front of him, smashing down directly to Kuro's side and destroying a spiked mountain along with the weapons factory.
Charlotte Linlin approached on a black cloud, while above Kuro, a yellow light gathered and formed the shape of Kizaru.
"Kizaru?!"
Quinn screamed again, then looked somewhat bewildered.
What's this?
He knew Kizaru was here; he was supposedly injured by Kaido and Big Mom. But the arrival of Kinni was unexpected, especially considering Kizaru's current situation...
Is this the start of a full-scale war?!
"We're finally on the ground!"
Charlotte Linlin laughed heartily, stepping onto the thunderclouds to Kaido's side, completely ignoring everyone else and focusing only on Kuro and Kizaru. "Well then, let's continue!!"
It would be much easier to fight them once they were on the ground. Although they could fly, the sky was not their domain. If they were to be brought down, with the sea below, a misfire would send them crashing into the ocean.
"Tch, you went to all that trouble to get me to land? You're willing to take a knife from me for that? Fine..."
Kuro hoisted Luo Gui onto his shoulder, his scarlet eyes fixed on Kaido, and said, "It seems you don't want us to leave so easily."
“That’s right, Kuro.” Kizaru lowered his greatsword, Totsuka Blade. “Otherwise, I would have left long ago.”
Kuro could certainly fly back up and fight his way back with the old man, but that might have been possible just now. However, the two of them were fighting desperately to stop them from leaving, causing them to miss their chance. Now, Kuro doesn't want to leave for the time being.
