"Brat! Go to hell!"
"Great Fire Dragon"
Looking at Haku before him, Kaido generated a huge fire dragon to wrap around his own body, charging right toward the close-range Haku!
Anything touched by the flames would melt instantly!
Pity it was just these mere flames, this temperature compared to his Ryujin Jakka! It was simply far too inferior!
Haku instinctively swung the Ryujin Jakka in his hand, blocking Kaido's fiercely aggressive blow with absolute ease!
"How can this be!"
Kaido was shocked inside, knowing that before the other person put on the mysterious mask, he had a pretty good idea of just how much power Haku possessed!
Yet Haku, wearing the mask, was already holding his own equally in terms of sheer power!
"Oh my! That was close, I almost completely fell under the influence of the mask!"
Haku, who hadn't spoken in a long time, was finally able to speak, knowing that he had spent quite a bit of energy himself to break free from the negative emotional influence brought upon him by the mask!
However, the result of breaking free from the negative influence gave him a huge surprise.
Haku could clearly feel that he was already able to initially master the Hollow Mask.
Moreover, as the Hollow Mask came under his initial control, it meant that the next time he put on the Hollow Mask again, he would rarely be affected by its negative emotions!
Most importantly of all, Haku could sense that he could control the power of the hollow more freely!
"Brat! You actually dare to get distracted while fighting me!"
Seeing that Haku was immersed in his own world, Kaido immediately launched an attack toward him!
"Breathes Fire!"
A pillar of fire erupted from Kaido's mouth, attacking Haku!
Regaining his senses and watching the incoming attack, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Haku's mouth!
"Cero!"
Haku pointed the Ryujin Jakka in Kaido's direction! A small black sphere condensed right in front of the tip of the blade!
Soon, a black beam of energy shot toward Kaido's Breathes Fire!
The moves of both sides made contact, and in less than a moment, Kaido's Breathes Fire couldn't hold on any longer and was instantly shattered!
"Impossible!"
Kaido let out one final roar, and immediately his body was struck by this Cero!
A destructive energy storm swept across the entire area, and when this storm finally subsided,
the scene left only a crater, and at the bottom of the crater lay Kaido's charred body all over.
After Kaido endured this single attack,
he could no longer maintain the full Beast Transformation form, finally reverting back to human shape!
Haku looked down at Kaido from the air, seeing that the latter's right hand was still gone, and the right horn on his head had also been shaved off by Haku!
The most serious injury on his body was that cylindrical wound on his lower right abdomen, the very wound caused by Haku's use of the Cero just moments ago.
At this moment, Kaido was gravely wounded, with not a single intact spot anywhere on his entire body.
Haku slowly descended, looking down from a high vantage point at the dying Kaido lying on the ground.
"Marine... you've already won."
The bloody and battered Kaido lying on the ground said with difficulty to Haku. He was heavily injured at this moment, and even speaking seemed somewhat weak and feeble.
"Yeah! That's why I'm wondering whether to drag you off locked up in Impel Down!"
Kaido laughed out loud! Only, this tugged at the injuries on his body, making him groan in pain a few times!
Kaido said to Haku: "Haku, is it? Why is it that you want to lock me up, rather than kill me!"
Haku cast his own gaze onto the other person's body!
He slowly said: "That's because I'm pissed off at the World Government, and taking you away doesn't seem to have any profit in it!"
Hearing Haku's explanation, the expression on Kaido's face instantly froze!
Immediately, he burst into another loud laugh.
This laughter was both painful and joyful.
He had lived for so long, and it was the first time he had ever heard such an interesting rationale!
He could imagine that once this kind of thinking of the other person was leaked over to the World Government! What kind of huge waves that would stir up!
Kaido spoke up at this moment: "Since you neither want to catch me! Nor want to kill me! Then, what on earth did you come to Wano Country for, brat?"
Hearing the other person say this, Haku suddenly remembered: "Ah! If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. I came to Wano Country to track down a batch of Seastone that was hijacked from someone else in Wano Country!"
Having said that, Haku's entire body turned into a flash of lightning and vanished right where he stood!
As for Kaido, after hearing the other person's answer, he was completely stunned.
Long after Haku had left, he angrily cursed: "Damn Marine brat! I'm not finished with you from now on!"
Before long, King, who was likewise heavily injured, dragged his severely wounded body to Kaido's side.
Upon seeing Kaido's appearance, he cried out in alarm: "Boss! Are you alright?"
As the person who had followed Kaido the longest and trusted him the most, in his impression! He had never ever seen Kaido look in such a severely injured state!
No matter how much Kaido courted death, he had never seen the man end up looking as battered as he was right now!
Seeing that the newcomer was King, Kaido spoke in a dying breath: "King! Give me a strict investigation into who on earth hijacked the Marines' Seastone in Wano Country during this recent period!"
As soon as he finished these words, Kaido finally couldn't hold on any longer and passed out on the spot!
"Boss! Boss!"
Seeing Kaido faint, he cried out in shock.
At the same time, towering waves were likewise churned up inside his own heart.
He guessed from Kaido's words that the Seastone hijacked here in Wano Country was one of the reasons that drew over this Marine Admiral with extremely freakish strength.
A sense of absurdity continuously spread within his heart!
He kept thinking: You people who don't lack wealth as Marines, do you have to go this far? For just that tiny bit of ordinary Seastone, there was no need to overturn the entire Four Emperors pirate crew, was there?
He looked at the injuries on his own body, and then looked at the injuries on Kaido's body.
King even felt the urge to die!
However, there was no time to think too much. Dragging his broken body, and aided by Queen, who was also heavily injured and had just hurried back,
they hurriedly brought Kaido's body and severed arm back to Onigashima for medical treatment!
Holy Land Marijoa - Five Elders Conference Room
Five Elders' Birthmark said: "The news from Wano Country has already been sent back!"
The other members of the Five Elders, who had still been somewhat leisurely, all looked toward the direction of Five Elders' Birthmark, everyone awaiting the subsequent outcome over there!
Five Elders' Sword spoke disdainfully at this time: "I suppose that kid should have already lost! After all, the opponent is a veteran Four Emperors, you know. And Wano Country is still the other guy's turf!"
Five Elders' Birthmark remained silent for a moment, then spoke up: "That kid won!"
"How is that possible!"
Everyone cried out in astonishment! In their view, with Haku making trouble in the opponent's home base, there was no reason he should win!
