Roman Carries the Island, Kaido Falls
"Rubber-Spinning King Kong Gun!"
"The Abyss - The Underworld!"
Roman, Ace, Yamato held off Kaido, while Luffy Fourth Gear mode, twisted and spun his Armament Haki- covered arm to gather power, then suddenly launched it back with Conqueror's Haki, hurtling towards Kaido! The attack collided with the spiked club that Kaido had hastily raised, tearing apart a storm of Inazuma with jet-black cracks like light shuttles.
Boom!!!!
The unprecedentedly powerful attacks clashed, instantly unleashing a massive pillar of light that pierced through the clouds, lingering for a long time—a spectacle both a wonder of the world and a scene of impending doom. Immediately afterward, boundless sound waves and shockwaves spread outwards, and a gigantic mushroom cloud was just beginning to rise. Then, in the blink of an eye, it was torn apart and shattered by the raging energy storm.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Poor Onigashima, after being ravaged so repeatedly, large swathes of its foundation rock began to crack and crumble.
As Kaido weakened under the siege, the fiery clouds surrounding Onigashima began to flicker intermittently, and a massive rock crashed to the ground with a raging wind! The area below had already entered the Capital of Flowers's territory.
"Onigashima has fallen!"
"Everyone, run!"
But:
"I'm not leaving!" the old samurai said, sitting at his doorstep. "This is my home, and I'm not going anywhere else!"
"Besides, I'm old now, so let me witness the outcome of this battle from here."
"I'm not leaving either!!"
A man with bloodshot eyes stood upright, staring intently at the falling rocks above. Perhaps it was the intoxicating sake, or perhaps the pressure of life had reached its limit.
"I didn't stand up when Kuri was destroyed because I don't live in Kuri!"
"When Hakumai was destroyed, I didn't stand up for it because I didn't live in Hakumai!"
"Now, it's the Capital of Flowers's turn to be destroyed... There's no one left to stand up for us—"
"······"
"I'm not leaving either!!"
An elderly passerby, who had just listened to Tama's explanation, tilted his head back and cupped his hands into a megaphone shape:
"Captain Luffy!! And Ace— "
In the knowledge of the people of Wano Country regarding the outer seas, the 'captain' holds the highest position. Just look at Kaido, who has roamed Wano Country for twenty years—isn't he the captain of the Beasts Pirates?
"Although I don't know who you are, and although I've taken the liberty of entrusting my dreams to you, please—take down Kaido! I beg you!!"
"Captain Luffy!"
"Ace!"
"Please help Wano Country, please help everyone!!!"
"Luffy!"
"Ace!"
"Luffy, please!!"
"Hehe, because of incompetence, I willfully imposed my dreams on others... Originally, I wanted to use Onigashima to bombard Zhonghua Town, completely destroy the Bad People's lair, and then slowly search for the treasure from the ruins."
But now it seems that, having only flown halfway through Wano Country, not only the Beasts Pirates, but even Kaido himself is on the verge of collapse. So, let's just:
"Since you all think so highly of Straw Hat Kid, then let him try to save you!!"
With a roar from Kaido, he spread his arms and shook them, instantly dispelling the fiery clouds surrounding Onigashima. The massive island paused briefly in the air before resuming its descent, seemingly controlled by Newtonian forces!
Boom boom boom—
Meanwhile, the battered Onigashima, freed from the constraints of the rings of 'flame clouds,' gradually disintegrated. It seemed poised to crash into the island, turning it into a torrent of boulders that would rain down from the sky. While the force might be dispersed, the area of effect would be several times larger. And once it fell...
I'm afraid the Capital of Flowers will suffer heavy casualties.
"Kaido, you're so despicable!!"
Faced with Yamato's angry outburst, Roman calmly shook his head.
"Don't panic,"
"All warfare is based on deception; war is inherently a game of treachery and deception."
Using any means necessary to achieve victory is perfectly normal. Because: the dead cannot stand up and refute the victor.
"Luffy, Ace!"
Encased in armor gleaming with diamonds and exuding an air of extravagance, Roman leaped off the ground towards the outer edge of the island.
"Kaido yours to handle; I'll take care of Onigashima."
"I'll go help too!"
As the successor to Oden's will, Yamato, who wholeheartedly desires the opening and prosperity of Wano Country Yamato, will certainly not stand idly by and watch Onigashima fall and destroy the Capital of Flowers.
Moreover, her Devil Fruit 'Dog-Dog Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Okuchi no Makami Mode,' is inherently the guardian deity of Wano Country, similar to Alabasta's 'Zoan, Dog-Dog Fruit, Jackal Mode' and 'Zoan Bird-Bird Fruit, Falcon Mode,' carrying a certain 'mission' from birth. However:
How come these Devil Fruit clearly bear the characteristics of a particular region, consistently appear in specific countries? That's worth pondering...
"Roman, I'm going to deal with the ammunition depot on Onigashima!"
Having transformed into a handsome, giant wolf with delicate features, draped in auspicious clouds and bound by a Yamato Shimenawa, the Yamato Beast dashed towards the gunpowder depot on Onigashima. If the fall on Onigashima only resulted in heavy casualties, then if the ammunition depot located within the island wasn't dealt with promptly, it would lead to the ultimate destruction of the entire Capital of Flowers.
"Well, you're actually afraid I can't handle an Onigashima?"
Roman, who had retreated to the edge of the island, glanced around and saw that there weren't many places left where fighting was still taking place. It was only because the Beasts Pirates all Zoan Devil Fruit users, each with thick skin and great stamina, that they were already on the verge of collapse. Although Onigashima was beginning to fall, for the remaining powerful figures:
Could someone really die from falling from such a height?
"Nami!"
"Receive--"
To unleash a wide-area ability, you should definitely go to Nami first. After all, Roman prefers developing small-scale combat skills and various support abilities; carrying an entire island isn't his forte.
Diamond Knight and Jewel Princess, a magnificent fusion!
The diamond-studded knight reached out and took the jewel-encrusted princess, placing her on his shoulder, as papers fluttered and merged:
The All-Rounder Knight returns!
"How could this happen!?"
As Tama cried out in alarm, the Onigashima, which had only partially collapsed in the sky before, began to fall entirely!
Thousands of meters in the sky, a colossal, majestic island is falling from the heavens. Accelerating faster and faster, accumulating an ever-growing and terrifying momentum, it plummets towards the earth with an overwhelming, destructive force. And below the island Capital of Flowers:
"It's over, we're all going to die!"
"If we hadn't shouted just now... no, if those people from the outer sea hadn't come, perhaps..."
"What are you talking about? This is clearly Kaido's doing! Now that things have come to this, how can we have the face to blame those who dared to confront him?"
"Captain Luffy, Ace! Take down Kaido!! Take him down—"
"Am I about to die...?"
Faced with death falling from the sky, despair, complaints, or even angry outbursts are all futile! As Roman once said, when faced with the strong, ordinary people in this world often cannot even resist.
Under the force of gravity, a white shockwave began to appear at the bottom of the island. The sheer impact of this massive mass falling would render 99% of the world's experts helpless. But—
This does not include the All-Rounder Knight formed by Roman and Nami.
Brush,
The towering All-Rounder Knight leaped down, tracing an arc as he flew towards the lower reaches of the island. Although the ten-meter-tall All-Rounder Knight looked like an ant under a giant truck in front of the massive Onigashima, Roman must have been confident to have dared to come.
"Momo, 80 times..."
"Light as a Feather, Gravity Journey..."
As the All-Rounder Knight's hands touched the rapidly falling island's base, Roman activated Momo ability enhancement, Nami to precisely control her abilities to cover the entire island. Then, combined, it becomes:
Fusion Skill: Super Light Heavy Rock!
Stop--!!
The rapidly falling Onigashima suddenly shuddered and came to a screeching halt, as if Newton were rising from his coffin. The enormous shadow cast by the sudden stop caused countless civilians of the Capital of Flowers to fall to their feet! The people fighting on the island were also jolted downwards by this abrupt stop!
Like an old-fashioned elevator that has lost its cable and is in freefall, the immense inertia jolted everyone violently to the ground, with most of their legs sinking into the battlefield.
"What are they up to now?"
Amidst the complaints of a group of experts who remained unfazed as they pulled him from the mud, Kaido's eyes hardened with a mixture of ferocity and helplessness.
Unexpectedly, the opponent even easily neutralized the island that fell from the sky—
"Kaido!"
This "sky-falling" island attack failed to destroy the Capital of Flowers, but it did truly ignite Luffy's fury to its peak! Although Luffy calls himself a pirate, in his heart, a "pirate" is simply a free-spirited adventurer. Facing someone like Kaido who can destroy a city with a wave of his hand:
"Don't even think about acting recklessly again!!"
In the instant Kaido lost focus, Luffy's fist, imbued with Conqueror's Haki and black Inazuma, slammed into Kaido's face without any fancy moves.
"Rubber Lion King Cannon!"
"Ah--!!"
The piercing, earth-shattering screams shook the sky, causing clouds to churn and the earth to rumble incessantly. Birds and beasts scattered in panic. The ordinary people of the Capital of Flowers, who had just escaped death, were once again subjected to a terrifying shock, and large numbers of them collapsed unconscious, their eyes rolling back in their heads.
"Air Quake - Spatial Collapse!"
In that instant, Ace seized the opportunity and punched Kaido in the back of the head from behind! The rampant Conqueror's Haki shattered the space, creating black cracks, and even Kaido's dragon scales were torn apart by the black cracks.
Of course, this isn't Whitebeard's "Tremor-Tremor Fruit," but rather a spatial tremor created by Ace using Conqueror's Haki. —It can only affect a small area and can't cause the cataclysmic destruction of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, but:
That's enough damage!
The two brothers' fists landed on Kaido's head at the same time! Caught between the two, Kaido felt a blinding crimson before his eyes, his head felt an intense heat that seemed to boil the sea and scorch the heavens, his ears heard a deafening thunderous roar, and his nose smelled the blood of his own scales and flesh being torn apart.
Am I going to die?
"No way!!!!"
In an instant, an overwhelming sense of terror overwhelmed Kaido, while desperately unleashing his Armament Haki to defend against the damage, spun around and blasted the two brats away! His black spiked club swept across Luffy's waist, while his massive Dragon tail slammed into Ace's chest!
Boom--
Kaido's desperate attack sent Luffy and Ace flying! Although both of them had Armament Haki for defense, they instantly spat out a mouthful of blood and turned into human cannonballs, falling towards both sides of Onigashima! The ground was once again caught in the crossfire, shattered and collapsed by the two, with mud and sand billowing and dust filling the sky.
"Luffy!"
"Ace!"
Two groups of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, who had gained the upper hand, immediately rushed over and helped Luffy and Ace up from the crater they had created, while keeping a watchful eye on the bloodied Kaido in the sky. They also checked on the two captains' injuries.
"I'm fine,"
"... Still able to fight!"
"Ahem, it seems 'Joy Boy' really is among you."
Facing Luffy and Ace, who had stood up again despite being hit countless times by him, Kaido's blood-covered face in the sky showed resentment, relief, liberation, and finally a cold smile.
"Fate is bullshit, you naive brats... whatever."
"Let me see what kind of things you can bring to this world..."
Before he could even speak, Kaido's massive body, which had previously appeared invincible, slowly moved forward—
Bang!
He collapsed.
PS: Although I know this kind of battle doesn't quite fit the style of King of the Pirates, given the Straw Hat crew's current strength, if they keep fainting and reviving... Anyway, that's it, this is my level.
