Kaido's Assault!

The light of lightning dissipated, revealing only a charred body before Haku's eyes.

King was defeated! And so thoroughly!

If he hadn't been so impulsive and gotten closer to Haku, perhaps he could have forced Haku to use Bankai!

"You damn brat!"

It's a testament to the tenacity of Zoan Devil Fruit users' life force that the opponent, despite enduring 150 million volts, could still curse Haku aloud!

Haku walked up to King, smiling as he said, "You still have the energy to speak? But your life ends here!"

Under King's unwilling gaze, Haku unhesitatingly raised Ryujin Jakka and swung it towards his neck!

"Thunder Bagua!"

A roar erupted from behind Haku. The drunken Kaido, who had been strolling leisurely from afar, had already appeared behind Haku.

His spiked club, crackling with lightning, swung at Haku with incredible speed!

"Hiss! That fast!"

Haku forcefully changed the trajectory of his sword strike, which was aimed at King's head, deflecting it to his side.

A clang of metal on metal rang out!

Haku, who had been standing in front of Kaido, vanished!

"Cough! Boss!"

King had tried to sit up the moment he saw Kaido arrive.

Kaido rested his spiked club on his shoulder and looked at King, saying, "Rest well! I'll handle that Marine brat from now on!"

Meanwhile, Haku, caught off guard during his hasty defense, was sent flying for several miles by Kaido's Thunder Bagua!

Haku adjusted his posture in mid-air before landing steadily on the ground.

He looked up at the sky, where the storm clouds were already beginning to dissipate!

He inwardly cursed his bad luck!

He had used too much of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's power against King just now. The thunderclouds in the sky were no longer fully under his control!

With no time to think, Haku flew back to Jinbu Port!

As Haku gradually got a clearer view of Kaido's appearance, he saw an extremely tall and burly figure with black hair cascading over his shoulders. He had a pair of dragon-horn-like antlers, long whiskers resembling a dragon's, and dragon scale tattoos on his left arm.

His upper body was bare, with an X-shaped scar on his right abdomen. He wore a purple garment around his waist, with two golden chains hanging from its hem. He wore loose, dark green trousers, a shimenawa rope tied around his waist, and a purple fur cloak, looking like a demon incarnate.

He carried a sake gourd emblazoned with the character "Heaven". In his hand, he held a massive spiked club!

This was no different from the anime image he had seen before his transmigration, but seeing the figure in person made Kaido seem more three-dimensional!

The imposing aura emanating from him was even more chilling!

As Haku approached, Kaido looked at the young man who had defeated the three strongest subordinates under him!

An invisible Conqueror's Haki was unleashed from him, targeting the young Admiral before him!

"Heh! Trying to intimidate me right off the bat!"

With that, Haku unleashed his own Conqueror's Haki without showing any weakness. The two Haki clashed, resisting each other!

Instantly! Heaven and earth changed color, and even the thunderclouds in the sky were split into a celestial abyss by these two forces!

Above Byakubi, all sentient beings present were knocked unconscious by the sheer force of these two Haki!

However, Haku's Conqueror's Haki was only at an intermediate level. Initially, Kaido hadn't used his full strength, and the two were evenly matched!

When Kaido unleashed more Conqueror's Haki, Haku was almost suppressed by him!

He had no choice but to release his Spiritual Pressure as well! Only then could he fight Kaido to a standstill!

A blast suddenly erupted in the void!

Kaido and Haku ultimately failed to determine a victor through their Haki.

Haku stared at the Four Emperor of the Sea before him and slowly said, "This strength! It truly lives up to the title of 'Strongest Creature' that people outside call you!"

Kaido's hammer-like spiked club slammed heavily onto the ground, sending powerful shockwaves radiating outwards from him!

He chuckled and said, "Marine brat, you know a lot! You even know the title 'Strongest Creature'! Do you think you have the strength to challenge me!"

Haku looked at him and retorted without backing down, "What? You don't think my strength is enough to challenge you!"

A playful smile spread across Kaido's lips. "Whether you're strong enough or not, I'll know once I test you!"

As the words fell, Kaido charged at Haku, bringing his lightning-wreathed spiked club down upon him!

Haku, seeing the ferocity of his opponent's charge, dared not be careless. He raised Ryujin Jakka and met the spiked club head-on!

"Boom!"

With an explosion, Haku was sent flying by the force of the blow!

Kaido raised his spiked club, looked at his opponent, then leaped forward and slammed the spiked club heavily onto the ground again!

"Fall down!"

That powerful shockwave sent Haku flying again!

Haku, in mid-air, forcibly stabilized himself, a hint of anger showing on his face.

Meanwhile, Kaido, seeing that he hadn't managed to defeat his opponent twice, immediately felt angered!

He was wreathed in lightning, transforming into a bolt of electricity as he charged at the other party!

"You're not done yet, huh! You really think I'll just take hits passively!"

Haku, wielding Ryujin Jakka, unleashed a massive flame slash in the direction Kaido was flying!

The slash quickly hit Kaido, but its effect was merely to leave a shallow mark on Kaido's body.

Haku's brow immediately furrowed. He knew Kaido possessed monstrously strong defense.

However, he hadn't expected the defense to be that monstrous. No wonder he was called the 'Strongest Creature'!

"Brat, are your attacks just tickling me?" Kaido said mockingly as he flew forward.

"Gundari Ryuseigun!"

Immediately after, Kaido wrapped Conqueror's Haki around his iron club and swung it rapidly in all directions around Haku, attacking him!

Kaido's move directly created an unavoidable space. He was confident this move could seal off all of Haku's escape routes!

However, Haku's Observation Haki could now glimpse a corner of the future. Combined with the ultimate speed brought by Shunpo.

No matter how fast Kaido swung his spiked club, Haku could dodge all of his attacks!

And so, a bizarre scene unfolded on the battlefield!

Under Kaido's airtight attack, Haku's figure continuously flickered and weaved between the shadows of the club.

The speed was so great that it even created a visual illusion of Kaido's spiked club piercing through the other party's body!

"Stinky brat! Can you dodge forever!"

Seeing his proudest attack so easily dodged by the opponent, Kaido felt immensely frustrated!
