A kilometer-long wave of freezing frost and scorching flames descended from the sky simultaneously!
Like a natural disaster erupting, the frost froze everything in an instant, encasing countless buildings in the Flower Capital within thick layers of ice.
On the ground, Zoro, gripping his three swords, had already sprung into action!
"Foxfire Style! Flame Rend!"
Enma wreathed in Armament Haki, slashed through the air, cleaving apart Kaido fiery breath head-on!
"Soul Solid! Freeze!" Brook, too, brandished his rapier, swinging with all his might, attempting to extinguish the flames split by Zoro with his chilling aura.
At the same time, Marco made his move!
Transforming into a blue-flamed phoenix, he soared against the wind, charging straight toward Caesar!
"Law! We can't turn the Flower Capital into a battlefield! Please teleport everyone out of here! I beg you!" Momonosuke cried out in panic.
Law expression darkened as he glanced at the monstrous bird looming above.
"Are you kidding me? That thing's too damn big! I can't teleport it!"
Momonosuke clutched his head in terror. "Then what do we do?! If we fight here, the citizens will suffer!"
"Everyone! Attack that giant bird together first!" Kin'emon roared, unsheathing his sword.
"No good! It's flying too high—not all of us can fly!" Inuarashi shouted anxiously.
It was daytime, meaning the Mink warriors couldn't transform into Sulong, drastically reducing their combat strength.
Law spread his fingers wide, casting a massive dome downward as he yelled.
"I'll handle it!" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs noveⅼfire.net
Across the land, large groups of people vanished abruptly—teleported away by Law ability.
Over twenty figures appeared instantly on the colossal bird's back—Kid, Killer, Law, Inuarashi, Kin'emon, Zoro, Brook, Luffy…
"Nice one, Torao!" Luffy cheered, his body rapidly swelling.
"Gomu Gomu no… Muscle Balloon, Gear Fourth! Boundman!"
Black patterns spread across his rubbery form—the manifestation of Armament Haki.
With a single leap, Luffy launched into the air, hurtling toward Caesar massive avian head.
"Three-Sword Style Secret Technique: Three Thousand Worlds!"
"Foxfire One-Sword Style: Dragon Slayer!"
For a moment, Caesar back became a chaotic battleground as over twenty fighters unleashed a relentless barrage.
"Borororo! You call this an attack? Where's your strength? Did you skip breakfast?"
Caesar enormous body flipped midair, his massive wings sweeping down to the ground.
The sheer force flattened everything in its path, carving out a colossal crater!
"Gomu Gomu no… Bajrang Gun!"
Enraged, Luffy transformed into his Sun God Nika form.
His right arm ballooned to the size of an island, wreathed in Armament Haki, as he punched straight at Caesar head!
"Borororo, not bad! So you're the Straw Hat brat who took down my little brother? Good!"
The sky-obscuring Golden-Winged Great Peng vanished abruptly and Caesar reverted to his human form, gripping the greatsword Zhu Long.
"A fistfight? I love those! Zhu Long! To battle!"
Caesar tossed the blade aside and the sword expanded violently midair, morphing into a colossal purple dragon coiling across the sky.
With a deafening roar, it spewed torrents of purple venom toward Kid and the others.
Stranded midair with no footing, Law had no choice but to activate his ability again, teleporting everyone back to the ground.
Caesar stood high in the air, a pair of golden wings sprouting from his back.
Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki erupted as Caesar unleashed a Haki-infused attack.
His right arm muscles swelled, instantly expanding hundreds of times in size, becoming like a mountain range that completely engulfed Luffy island-sized fist.
Two colossal mountain-like fists collided!
The skies and earth split apart, the shockwaves reverberating for dozens of miles.
The air cracked with fissures, shattering like broken glass.
"WAAH!" Luffy body was sent flying backward, his massive fist rapidly deflating as he plummeted from the sky.
"LUFFYY!" Zoro shouted.
Beside him, Law instantly acted, tossing out a stone—
Luffy falling body appeared beside Zoro, limp and powerless.
"Are you okay, Luffy?" Zoro called out.
Law frowned. "He's overused his Haki. He needs time to recover."
As he spoke, his brow furrowed as he looked up at the sky.
Above, Caesar mountainous right arm returned to normal as he flapped his wings and descended.
Three deafening explosions echoed as smoke billowed, revealing three towering figures.
Luffy forced himself to his feet, his expression grave, realizing the dire situation.
Kid, Law, Zoro, and the others quickly gathered around Luffy.
Kid shouted "Hey! You bastard! Just who the hell are you?"
Caesar gripped his massive blade, grinning widely.
"The name's Caesar—Kaido older brother. My little bro here... seems you've been giving him quite the hard time lately."
"Damn it, don't screw with us!" Kid snapped, unable to control his anger.
"LIAR! You look younger than Kaido!" Luffy yelled.
"He's telling the truth!"
A woman's voice came from behind, startling everyone as they turned.
Yamato stepped forward, her face pale. "That man... really is Kaido older brother. A true monster. I heard Kaido mention him when I was a child."
"What?! Kaido has an older brother?!"
The group expressions twisted in shock as they exchanged uneasy glances.
"Yamato!" Kaido tightened his grip on his spiked club, roaring "My foolish child! Get back here!"
Yamato clenched her teeth and shouted back.
"Shut up, Kaido! I'm not Yamato! I am Kozuki Oden of Wano!"
Caesar grin widened as he stepped forward, his massive blade Zhu Long dripping with purple venom that corroded the ground, leaving gaping holes and billowing black smoke.
His face darkened as he glared at Yamato.
"Look at this, Kaido! Your own daughter—Borororo!—joining outsiders to fight her own father! What a filial child! King told me all about it. Yamato, you read one of Oden notebooks and what? That alone brainwashed you? Pathetic!"
"You have no right to talk to her like that!" Luffy roared, his eyes blazing with fury.
"BORORORO! Then die, all of you!"
Caesar gripped his blade with both hands, Armament and Conqueror's Haki surging as thunder cracked across the sky.
A massive black-and-red slash tore through the air!
Zoro, Kin'emon, Brook, Killer—every swordsman lunged forward, charging at Caesar!
"Kin'emon? You're still alive?" Kaido eyes widened in disbelief as he saw Kin'emon standing before him.
He clearly remembered slicing Kin'emon in half with his blade, stabbing him through the chest and even smashing his head with a Conqueror's Haki Infusion-enhanced club!
Watching the lively Red Scabbards before him, Kaido began to doubt his own strength for the first time.
Gripping his spiked club tightly, Kaido expression twisted further, the muscles in his arms bulging as he swung the weapon straight at Kin'emon!
"Threefold Destruction! Infernal Drop!"
The blade's energy tore through space, instantly sending Zoro, Brook and others flying.
The terrifying shockwave upheaved massive chunks of the ground, forcing everyone to retreat repeatedly to evade Caesar slashes.
Amid the storm of black-and-red blade flashes, Kaido charged forward, leading the assault.
His club smashed down onto Kin'emon head before he could escape!
The longsword Kin'emon raised in defense shattered instantly, unable to withstand Kaido furious might.
The terrifying Conqueror's Haki Infusion attack shattered layers of space, landing squarely on Kin'emon skull once again!
Flesh exploded in all directions, scattering like rain.
Fragments of bone shot out like bullets, flying far into the distance.
Kaido shook the bits of flesh clinging to his club and glanced at his hands, grinning widely.
It seemed his strength hadn't diminished after all.
Luffy and the others watched in horror, their eyes nearly bursting from their sockets, as Kaido caught up to Kin'emon and turned him into a bloody mist with a single strike—without even leaving a final word behind.
