Raging Storm

" KING-SAMA!"

There was a roaring shout from one of Kaido's men as one of King's wings were suddenly frozen solid as he flew through the air.

King found his balance greatly lacking without the use of one of his wings and, in order to avoid falling into the sea, King transformed back to his human form. Using his own wings, King caught himself and launched himself into the air, while shattering the ice that had entrapped his left arm.

Having regained his balance, King resumed his descent towards the Marine's ship.

*BOOSH!

" ICE SPIKE!" Kuzan jumped into the air while pointing out his hand and fired a single, large, pillar of ice from his hand.

" HM!" King rolled out of the way of the attack and ignited his large left leg. "HMM!"

* Crack!

King slammed his leg into Kuzan's guard and shattered his entire body into chunks of ice, sending him falling into the sea.

*KROOOOM!"

Kuzan braced himself for the impact, and the moment his body landed, the sea water immediately froze, creating a bed of ice that saved Kuzan from being affected by the sea water.

[ Karakuri castle, Transform.]

Kuzan reformed his body and placed his hand on the roaring sea water below him. " ICE AGE!" Ice rushed out from where Kuzan had connected with the water and quickly formed a massive terrain of ice that ended up enclosing the Marine ship and the Beast pirate ships.

" Oh my! Looks like this guy's not gonna go down easy at all." Kuzan muttered.

King looked down on Kuzan, and though he couldn't see it, Kuzan believed the man was glaring at him angrily.

* Doom!

There was a loud rumbling noise nearby, and Kuzan and King both looked to where the giant golden shockwave had just appeared.

" Kaido!" King turned his head towards the giant dragon, and in that moment Kuzan jumped back into the air.

" You really gonna turn your head in battle?" Kuzan asked. He placed his hand on Kings back and shot a wave of ice across the upper right half of his body.

" Guh!" King grunted. He watched as the ice quickly crept across the rest of his large body, however, before Kuzan could declare victory, King broke out of the ice and grabbed Kuzan by his head. he then tossed the man back down into the sea, but once again Kuzan broke his fall by freezing the water before he became submerged.

King watched as Kuzan's body started to reform again.

' This one's going to be a problem.' King thought to himself. ' What was that shockwave earlier. Was that Sengoku?'

" You're probably wondering what that was right about now, right? Well, let's just say he didn't get the nickname the Buddha for nothing." Kuzan said to the man.

" Kaido-San has never lost in a one-on-one battle." King responded. " He will be the true king of this world." King pulled out his sword and raised it over his head. " Imperial Flaming Wings!" Bright red flames sprouted from the tip of Kings sword and took the shape of a giant serpentine like dragon.

" Sorry, but it looks like you don't know my boss at all. And you definitely don't know me." Kuzan told the man. He quickly raised his hand upward to the sky and pointed it right at King. " ICE BLOCK: PHEASANT BECK!" Ice rushed out of Kuzan's arm, as King launched his attack, and transformed into a giant bird of Ice that crashed head on into the giant flaming dragon.

Kuzan and King both pressed their attacks, until they both ended up being extinguished by the other, resulting in the ice melting and the fire turning into gas.

" Oh my! Looks like my attack's melted away. What am I gonna do about that?" Kuzan playfully mocked the man in front of him, giving him a smug look of joy.

" Marine." Was all King grumbled in response.

Elsewhere.

Kaido was slightly bleeding from his mouth, after having felt the weight of Sengoku's attack hitting him full on.

" Sengoku, "The Buddha", Yeah you are pretty strong." Kaido whipped back his gigantic head and opened his mouth and a giant ball of fire started forming in the pit of his throat. " Boro Breath!" Kaido fired a giant beam of fire straight at Sengoku and the Marine ship, intent of sinking them all into the sea in one fail swoop.

But Sengoku wasn't going to let that happen so easily.

Using his powerful legs, Sengoku jumped into the air and parted Kaido's flames with the palm of his hand before shoving his gigantic fist into Kaido's stomach. From his fist came a shockwave that exploded out of Kaido's back.

" Graaaaah!" Kaido bellowed.

Sengoku landed back on his ship, shaking it the whole thing violently.

" What do you think about that, you damned dirty pirate?!"

Kaido curled himself up into a ball to hide the pain before his body started changing.

A large cloud of smoke erupted from Kaido's body and slowly his dragon like appendages started to turn more human like. And eventually the giant blue dragon, turned into a giant man like beast covered in blue scales, with horns, and dragon like fangs and in his hands was a giant kanabo.

" Right. Forgive me, I'm up to speed now." Kaido mumbled. He cracked his shoulders three times, and then in a blinding flash of light, he exploded towards Sengoku. " Thunder Bagua!"

"Hm!!" Seeing the attack coming, Sengoku thrusted his palm forward and intercepted Kaido's attack with a shockwave.

There was a flash of black lightning.

The force of their attacks splintered the sky above them, causing the storm to part around them.

Kaido looked up at Sengoku, which is a rare occurrence to the man, and grinned. " Hey! Hey!" Kaido grinned as he continued his clash with Sengoku, a man renowned for his mighty strength.

Sengoku looked down at the smug look on Kaido's face and scowled. " Don't press your luck, you little punk!" Sengoku exclaimed. He pushed down on Kaido with all of his might and overpowered the man's strike, slamming him with the full strength of his haki and his shockwave.

Kaido found himself suffering from the might of Sengoku's shockwave, losing his footing on the man's ship and being sent hurtling back out to sea.

Just before he hit the water, however, Kaido transformed back into his dragon form and bellowed to the top of his lungs. " WORRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOO!" The frustration was clear by the tone of his voice. But it was clean and cut, that no matter how hard he tried, he wasn't going to move Sengoku from that ship.

That being said, Kaido wasn't going to just run away.

Kaido charged Sengoku's ship once more.

" You are strong, Kaido. In a few more years you may even be as strong as me. But you are still young, and even you are not invincible." Sengoku told the man.

" You speak to much, Sengoku!"

" You are young, but youth is not indicative of skill." Sengoku muttered. He jumped off of his ship, launching himself with force towards Kaido. " You Can't beat me!"

" JUST WATCH ME! WORORORORO!!!" Kaido dove towards Sengoku with force and intensity. He was dead set on fighting this man to the death, even if it killed him.

The truth is, Kaido, with all of his strength, had grown quite bored with the challenges he's facing and for the first time in a long time, against Sengoku.... Kaido was feeling the rush of battle going to his head once more.

Kaido clashed with Sengoku once more, and the resulting shockwave threatened to overturn both the ship belonging to Kaido, and the ships belonging to the Marines. It was complete and utter chaos.

" This.... This is insane." One marine muttered.

" It's Vice Admiral Kuzan and King fighting over here.

" ICE AGE!"

" Extra Large Imperial Flaming Wings!"

*CRASSSSH!!!

Twelve giant dragons of fire clashed against Pillars of Ice that continued expanding. The sea rippled aggressively from the collision of ice and fire, sending the marines and pirates running for dear life as they struggled not to get flung from their ships.

" And it's Admiral Sengoku vs Kaido over here."

*CRASSSSH! DOOOOOM!

Another large golden shockwave hit Kaido and the force caused the ocean to slam into the ship violently, throwing the ships off balance and nearly causing them to be swallowed up by the sea.

Sengoku, Kuzan, Kaido, King. Before their battle would rage on two whole days and nights before Sengoku and Kuzan managed to repel the forces of the Beast Pirates. Though not without taking quite the hits themselves.

*DOOM!
