Byrnndi World's Appearance!
Now.
As Kozuki Oden was in freefall, all he could see was Toki hanging on the wooden pole.
"Toki."
His pale, pained expression filled him with immense guilt; he hadn't even managed to protect his wife. Yet, the gaze that Toki cast at him was filled with tenderness and unwavering resolve.
She was telling him that she didn't regret staying in this time and marrying him, and bearing him children.
On the ground.
Despite the excruciating pain in his chest, Kaido reverted from his Azure Dragon Form to human form, but his trembling body told him that he had lost, utterly defeated by Kozuki Oden.
Even if he were still barely alive, he couldn't possibly defeat his opponent.
Unless Kozuki Oden chooses to stand there without resistance, there might be a chance to unleash one last Thunder Bagua, but Kaido knows he can't do that.
He enjoys fighting and respects fighting.
Even in the original story, he only managed to defeat Kurozumi Higurashi Kozuki Oden.
However, Kaido isn't particularly stubborn; he just dislikes having his battles interfered with.
[Slap.]
Kozuki Oden landed from the air, but his gaze did not fall on Kaido, who was kneeling in front of him. Instead, he transformed into a red beam of light, swept past Kaido's shoulder, and charged towards the spot where Toki had been standing.
In response to this...
Kaido tried to intercept with his bat, but the intense pain in his chest slowed his reaction, and he could only watch helplessly as his opponent abandoned him.
This was a disgrace to him!
"Ahhh, Oden's here----"
As the Kurozumi Orochi watched the approaching red light, its pupils suddenly contracted, and it trembled as it retreated. The next second, its foot slipped and it fell off the vehicle.
"Don't worry, he can't hurt us."
At this moment, Kurozumi Semimaru stepped forward and made a gesture of overlapping his middle and index fingers.
"A protective barrier!"
The next moment, a barrier resembling transparent Hari appeared in front of them, and more and more of them appeared, quickly forming a bowl shape that enveloped them.
[Duang!!]
The moment the barrier formed, the red beam of light, like a death notice, crashed down upon it.
To Kozuki Oden's dismay, no matter how hard he slashed with his swords, Ame no Habakiri and Enma, which were stained Black Blade by Armament Haki, he couldn't budge the transparent barrier in the slightest.
Just like last year, he also attacked Orochi Castle in the Flower Capital in order to defeat Kurozumi Orochi, and was blocked by the old man in front of him with the same move.
"What should I do? What should I do to save Toki?"
[Call out----]
Just as Kozuki Oden was frantically hacking at the barrier, an extremely sharp sound of air being torn apart came from afar and grew closer to everyone's ears.
This caused Oden Kurozumi Orochi, who had awkwardly stood up and was about to mock Oden outside the barrier, along with the heavily injured Kaido who had been helped up by Jin, and Shimotsuki Ushimaru, Shimotsuki Yasuie, Hyogoro of the Flower, and the others, to instinctively raise their heads and look at the source of the sound.
That is...
Everyone clearly saw a huge fireball, like a meteorite, fall from the sky.
Its descent speed was extremely exaggerated, accompanied by Sound Explosion; one second it was high in the air, and the next it had already crashed to the ground.
Moreover, the location seems to be directly targeting Kozuki Oden!
[Boom!]
"Oden!!!"
The Kin'emon behind them, including Denjiro, Denjiro, Kawamatsu, and Ashura Doji, screamed in utter horror as they watched the completely shattered ground and the billowing smoke.
It was just like a real meteorite; the shockwave spread outwards, sending the front-line Samurai and their horses flying.
The so-called army of tens of thousands of Samurai was in complete chaos, or rather, the warhorses were completely terrified and ran wildly in all directions, no matter how hard the Samurai on their backs tried to control them.
[Swish----]
Just then, a red light shot out from the thick smoke, followed closely by a Darkshine; their speed was simply too fast.
[Bang bang bang bang.]
Ninety percent of the Samurai could only hear the continuous booming sounds of air explosions in mid-air, and at most vaguely see two beams of light chasing, colliding, and passing each other like lightning.
Wherever it went, whether it was the ground or the mountains, it exploded everywhere it went. The surrounding Beasts One Piece and Samurai scattered and fled when they saw this.
However, this also relieved those who were worried about Kozuki Oden.
Interestingly, the Kurozumi Orochi and the others, who were also in the center of the 'fall' impact, were completely unaffected. All the Shockwave and the cannonball-like flying rocks were blocked by the transparent barrier.
"Who is that person?"
Kurozumi Higurashi looked at Queen with suspicion, "Is he also a strong Beasts Pirates?"
"Oh, this."
Queen didn't know what to say. Although he wasn't exactly a combat specialist, he had a feeling that the person currently fighting Kozuki Oden seemed stronger than Kaido in terms of combat power.
The problem is, how could their One Piece crew possibly have someone stronger than Kaido!
Could it be...?
Queen instinctively looked up at the sky above, squinting hard to make out a blurry black dot.
At the same time.
Kaido and King are doing the same thing; they share the same thought: the World Government has made its move!
"Hateful!!"
Kaido stood up, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists in Wrath. He wanted to roar at this newcomer and tell him not to interfere in his battle with Oden.
The problem is that he knows he has already lost; the cross-shaped wound on his chest still hasn't healed.
"What do we do next?" Jhin asked softly beside him.
"Call------"
Kaido took a deep breath to suppress his anger, but his dissatisfaction with this unknown powerhouse had already taken root in his heart, and he swept his fierce gaze toward Shimotsuki Ushimaru and the others.
"Let's keep doing what we're supposed to do."
Honestly, he really wanted to gulp down a mouthful of strong liquor, but he didn't have his gourd with him, which made him even more irritable.
"Kill them all!"
"Good!"
Upon hearing Kaido's words, King did not hesitate at all. He flapped his black-feathered wings and, illuminated by the Huoguang behind him, soared into the sky with his giant red-sheathed Samurai in hand. Then, like a black lightning bolt, he swooped down towards Shimotsuki Ushimaru.
Because in his perception, Shimotsuki Ushimaru's aura was the strongest.
"Good timing!"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru was also a type with a strong fighting spirit. His twin swords had long been ready to be unleashed, and now that Jin was flying towards him, the fighting spirit in his eyes turned into a scarlet killing intent.
[Swish----]
With a clang, he drew his twin swords from their sheaths, shattered the ground beneath him with one foot, and shot upwards, leaving only the white fox named Onimaru watching him from the spot.
"Two-Sword Style - Ox Needle!"
A bull-like phantom appeared on Shimotsuki Ushimaru's body, and the two swords, already blackened by Armament Haki, were the bull's sharpest horns.
"Fire Dragon Emperor!"
Faced with 'Bull's' provocation, a crimson Fire Dragon, as red as magma, coiled out from Ember's blade, pouncing down with the majesty and fury of a dragon.
Compared to the earth-shattering battle between the Darkshine and red lights in the distance, their commotion seemed rather minor, at least to Mihawk on the Floating Warship.
[Boom!!]
Kozuki Oden once again clashed head-on with Byndi Wald's Hundredfold Black Fist using his twin swords. The ground, more than ten meters away from them, was pulverized and destroyed to the maximum extent by the Shockwave.
"Who are you, and why are you meddling in the war in Wano Country?!"
"I am the World Destroyer!"
"Byndi Wald!!"
A huge thank you to the Anime Enthusiast reader for the 1500 Qidian Coin! Thank you so much for your support and encouragement!
<The following is Byndi Wald's combat record. In the current storyline, he was only frozen in Impel Down for six years, and thanks to the World Government's recuperation, he is still at his peak. At a hundred times stronger, he definitely possesses top-tier combat power. Don't use his performance in the movie 24 years later as a reference.>
