"What happened!?"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three figures arrived at the Momonga's warship together; they were the other three vice Vice Admiral who had participated in this mission.
When Marigold and Onigumo saw Kaido jump out of the cave, their pupils contracted, and they realized they were in trouble.
Only Tsuru looked thoughtful, sensing something was amiss. She had just left Senga's room not long ago, when Senga said he was going to sleep for a while, Kaido just happened to appear at that moment?
At this moment, Kaido, who was transformed from Wood Clone, didn't waste any words. He covered his fist with Armament Haki and blasted it towards the nearest Momonga.
Faced with Kaido's attack, Momonga dared not be careless and immediately drew his katana from his waist, holding it horizontally in front of him to block the attack.
However, the power enhanced by the Asura Fruit was clearly beyond his ability to withstand. His katana crumbled the moment it touched Kaido's fist, and Momonga was sent crashing into the warship's railing.
Seeing their colleague beaten so badly in a single encounter, Marigold and Onigumo exchanged a glance and used Shave to charge at "Kaido" together.
Kaido laughed, his right arm muscles bulging, and he slammed it to the side.
With a bang, the Marigold that appeared to the side of "Kaido" followed in the footsteps of the Momonga.
Onigumo, appearing from another direction, seized the opportunity. His hair, now in its Seimei Kikan state, gripped six swords, plus two more in his hands, and he slashed fiercely down at Kaido's back.
Clang! A metallic sound rang out, Onigumo, covered in cold sweat, stared at the eight swords resting on Kaido's back. This attack had not caused the monster the slightest damage.
In reality, Kaido, who was actually Wood Clone, did not defend against Onigumo as easily as it seemed, since he only possessed half the strength of his original self.
The reason it was able to easily block this attack was due to the combined effect of the powerful physique granted by the Asura Fruit ability and the temporary mechanization of the Asura Path.
Kaido narrowed his eyes, grabbed Onigumo's sword-wielding hand, and pulled Onigumo over as if he were squeezing a chick.
Onigumo stared wide-eyed in terror. The next second, Kaido grabbed his arm and slammed him hard to the ground.
With a loud bang, another humanoid crater with eight arms appeared on the deck of the Momonga warship.
Kaido pulled Onigumo out of the floor and examined it closely.
At this moment, Onigumo did look rather miserable; his nose was smashed like a rotten pear, and blood was flowing from his head.
The arm that "Kaido" was just holding looked limp, probably broken, but the person still seemed somewhat conscious.
"Holy crap, did I go too far?"
The Wood Clone became "Kaido" twitched at the corner of its mouth, and a bead of sweat rolled down its forehead. Although this guy's behavior was not very good, he was still Marine Vice Admiral, and it was really a bit unreasonable for him to be beaten like this.
However, taking advantage of Onigumo's current dazed state, Kaido pressed his large hand on Onigumo's head and used the Human Path ability to read his memories, obtaining the location of the Op-Op Fruit.
On the other side, the Momonga and the Marigold charged forward again after a short rest. Even the crane crossed her arms in front of her chest, seemingly preparing to activate her Wash-Wash Fruit ability.
Given the current situation, if they don't step in soon, Onigumo is going to die.
Kaido didn't want to continue like this any longer. Even with only half the power of his original form, it was still easy for him to cause too much damage to Momonga and Marigold.
He's strength is unknown, but regardless of her strength, Senga absolutely cannot lay a hand on her.
Thinking of this, Kaido roared.
"Too weak, get out of here!"
After saying that, he swung his arm at the warship carrying Onigumo, sending Onigumo flying onto it, and Kaido followed suit.
Momonga and Marigold trembled at Kaido's actions, knowing that the Op-Op Fruit was still on Onigumo's warship.
However, given the current situation, our Battle Power is too limited, and it would be too difficult to intercept Kaido. The only option now is to go to the Western Paradise, no, to Senga Vice Admiral Chiga's warship and awaken him.
Thinking of this, the Momonga quickly told the crane about his idea, and Marigold nodded seriously beside him.
Tsuru frowned. To be honest, she was becoming more and more convinced that this "Kaido" was most likely the work of Senga.
Although we don't know how he created such a realistic Kaido, given his Eight Gates abilities, it wouldn't be surprising if he also created a transformation.
Furthermore, does this "Kaido" have a grudge against Onigumo?
Good heavens, although the Momonga and Marigold were attacked to some extent, don't you see they're in pretty good shape now?
And then there's himself. This "Kaido" never even intended to lay a hand on him. What, when did Kaido learn to respect the elderly and care for the young, or develop gentlemanly manners, and stop wanting to lay a hand on women?
However, if this Kaido is actually Senga in disguise, it means Senga is no longer on his warship. Wouldn't that give away their secret?
"Vice Admiral Tsuru, what's wrong? There's no time to think. We know Senga Vice Admiral isn't in good shape right now, but he's the only one who can stop Kaido, that monster!"
"But..."
"I'm fine! Let me do it!"
Just as Tsuru was about to say something, a shout came from behind, and Tsuru, Momonga, and Marigold all turned to look in the direction of Senga's warship.
Senga's warship was to the left of the Momonga's warship, not far away.
When they saw Senga's current state, Momonga and Marigold couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, because Senga looked extremely weak.
On the bow of the Senga warship, Kalifa and Ain were supporting Senga on either side. Senga looked even worse; the Momonga probably got it from shouting earlier.
Ain's expression was somewhat subtle, as if she wanted to laugh.
She was quite frightened when she saw Senga's "weak" appearance, and even forgot that Senga had the ability to recover instantly. She was about to press the purple flames rising from her hand onto Senga.
Startled, Senga quickly stopped her, fearing that Ain might have a sudden emotional outburst and Awakening him to an infant state.
Then he patiently explained to Ain that he had been faking it, which finally calmed her down.
So, knowing that Senga was alright, Ain couldn't help but want to laugh as she watched Senga putting on an act.
Senga gave Ain a subtle glare, and Ain pouted and became obedient.
Sigh, Kalifa is so much easier to deal with. Senga glanced at Kalifa on the other side with a sense of relief.
Kalifa remained expressionless. Didn't she know what kind of person her boss was?
Even if she didn't know the truth, she knew that Senga was a bit of a chauvinist, in other words, she would never put on such a pretentious act.
Tsuru didn't speak, but squinted and scanned Kalifa and Ain before finally fixing her gaze on Senga's face, her expression somewhat unfriendly.
Noticing Tsuru's gaze, Senga was puzzled. What was wrong? Was my acting not convincing enough? Was Tsuru dissatisfied with her performance?
No way! My acting isn't even as good as Kizaru's!
No matter how Ren Senga thought about it, she would never have imagined that He was standing up for her sister; the direction was wrong from the start.
But since we've already come out, we still have to play our part completely.
Senga removed her hands from Kalifa and Ain's shoulders, activated her Deva Path ability, and "wobbled" towards Tsuru's warship.
Seeing this, both the Momonga and the Marigold wanted to use Geppo to get up there and finish her off, fearing that Senga would fall into the sea at any moment.
Seeing Senga in this state, the Momonga covered its face and said helplessly,
"How about... we hand over the Op-Op Fruit? After all, even Kaido is involved, which far exceeds the difficulty of the mission."
