Lucky Roux's massive body leaped from the deck, spinning violently through the air before crashing down.
Despite his enormous size, his movements were surprisingly swift.
Encased in Armament Haki, the enormous figure seemed like an unstoppable iron ball, ready to crush everything in its path!
At the same time, a fierce wind howled from the left.
Benn Beckman was already on deck, side by side with his monkey companion.
Bonk Punch, a burly man with a red dragon tattoo on his neck and wearing sunglasses, rushed in with two sharp blades.
Not only that,
Yasopp had quietly made his way to the top of the mast. Kneeling, he held a sniper rifle and aimed calmly downward.
With his top-tier Observation Haki, Yasopp precisely tracked Kaido's movements.
He prepared to fire deadly shots, sealing off all possible escape routes!
But it wasn't just Yasopp,
The rest of the Red Hair Pirates launched a coordinated assault, coming at us from all directions!
The intense barrage and menacing killing intent made the atmosphere incredibly oppressive.
The pirates on deck swallowed hard and took several steps back, terrified of getting caught in the crossfire.
Kaido raised an eyebrow.
As expected from the Red Hair Pirates, who have long been famous and can dominate the New World with just nine members.
In a brief moment, they launched an assault like a storm, perfectly synchronized!
Despite facing such a perilous situation, Kaido was not only unafraid but felt a surge of pride in his heart.
"This is interesting. I'm ready to fight to my heart's content!"
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted!
The deck shook violently, as if struck by a meteorite.
Shockwaves rippled everywhere.
The wooden boards shattered instantly, sending debris into the sky.
"Damn it! We're hit! Boss Kaido didn't dodge!"
"I said I didn't want to fight, but I didn't expect them to seize the moment of our conversation and launch such a fierce attack! How despicable! What a vile scheme!"
"Don't forget, these are top pirates from the New World. How could they be anything but ruthless?"
"Oh no, we're in trouble now."
"It's hard to say! After all, there's Kuzan..."
The pirates present widened their eyes, closely observing the battlefield.
Then, an unexpected scene unfolded.
"Thunder Eight Trigrams!"
With a loud shout,
From the billowing smoke, Six Paths' figure suddenly emerged.
Everyone took a closer look and saw that members of the Red Hair Pirates, including Lucky Road, Snake, Punch, and Limejuice, had been hit hard. They were thrown a hundred meters away, falling into the sea, barely able to move.
Despite their Armament Haki protecting them at the crucial moment, they suffered severe injuries and could only gasp for breath.
As the smoke cleared, a tall and imposing figure stood on the deck.
Kaido, in his dragon-like form, wielded a massive mace on his shoulder and held several hot bullets in his left hand.
His expression was relaxed, as if none of this troubled him.
In that moment, he stood in the center of the battlefield like a god of war.
On the mast of the Red Hair Pirates' ship, Yasopp was frozen in shock.
His eyes, usually focused through the scope, were now filled with deep disbelief.
The sharpshooter, who rarely missed, had actually failed?
As the first crew member to join Shanks, Yasopp's strength was undeniable.
With his powerful two-color Haki and supreme shooting skills, countless renowned pirates had fallen to his sniper rifle over the past decade.
But now, his shots not only missed, but they were also caught barehanded...
What incredible courage! What astonishing Observation Haki!
Beckman chewed his cigar tightly,
Even as the smoke filled the air, he maintained a calm facade.
But the flickering light on the cigarette end betrayed his inner turmoil.
He understood clearly in his heart:
In the brief moment just now, Yasopp, who was providing support from a distance, had fired three times.
Not only did the seastone bullets, enhanced with Armament Haki, fail to damage their opponent,
but the opponent had easily caught and toyed with them.
Beckman's expression grew increasingly serious, and a deep unease settled in his heart.
"It seems we've encountered an incredible opponent this time..."
Kaido glanced around with a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"The legendary Red Hair Pirates, is that all you have?"
His disdain was clear,
"We must have underestimated you."
Just as everyone was trying to make sense of the situation, Shanks stood up.
At that moment, he no longer held back,
The intensity of his Conqueror's Haki surged to new heights.
This powerful aura was not only visible but began to affect reality itself!
Cracks, like spider webs, radiated from him, spreading in all directions.
The eyes of everyone present went dark, overwhelmed by a deafening roar in their heads!
They clutched their heads in agony, their faces contorted in pain.
"Damn it, is this Shanks' Conqueror's Haki!"
"It's so strong! No, I'm going to die…"
Feeling the immense pressure of Shanks' Conqueror's Haki, Kaido narrowed his eyes slightly.
He unleashed his own equally intense and domineering Conqueror's Haki in response!
As he shared consciousness with his main body, his Haki was not inferior to Shanks'.
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color!
The once clear sky turned gloomy as dark clouds gathered and strong winds howled.
The purple-black Conqueror's Haki, like a hurricane, roared toward the opponent, as if it intended to tear everything apart.
In the next moment,
The two Conqueror's Haki, one black and one red, clashed in mid-air.
A deafening bang echoed across the sky,
It was as if the world fell silent.
Thousands of black lightning bolts erupted from the void!
People covered their ears, writhing on the ground in pain.
Kuzan, standing behind Kaido, took a fearful step back.
The overwhelming Haki was astonishing. Even though it wasn't directed at him, he felt a profound sense of dread.
In the sky,
Kaido's purple-black Conqueror's Haki continually pressed against and eroded Shanks' dark red Haki.
Every second, tens of thousands of black lightning bolts surged wildly, only to be gradually extinguished by the collision.
The space between them became extremely distorted, with violent airwaves sweeping through.
A terrible crunching noise filled the air.
In the space between the two, an area of absolute death emerged.
Everything within it was instantly torn to pieces and reduced to nothingness by the sheer force of their spiritual energy.
