Great Serpent, What Did You Do?!

The samurai suppressed their anger and worry and led their men to evacuate the civilians still trapped in the ruins.

Kaido glanced sideways at the people who were scattering, but ignored them.

His interest today was entirely focused on Oden, who was standing right in front of him.

Kaido looked at Oden with a mocking expression.

"Oden, what do those mortals have to do with you? They're dead, so what? Wano Country can be rebuilt, can't it?"

I can't be bothered to reason with you; you're not worthy to listen!

Oden drew both swords and clashed with Kaido once more.

The battle between the two had transcended the realm of ordinary pirates and samurai.

Each exchange of fire shook the entire Flower Capital like an earthquake, even causing the rooftops in the direction of the Oden Mansion to tremble slightly.

Oden fought with increasing ferocity, each strike heavy, as if he had completely transformed.

Kaido gradually became serious as well. Although he still had a smile on his face, his eyes clearly began to look solemn.

"Yes! That's it, Oden!" Kaido roared, "That's exactly what I want! Let's have a real battle!"

Inside the Oden Mansion.

Akuta stood in the corridor, taking a breath as he watched the continuous loud noises coming from the direction of the Flower Capital.

"Wow, is this what battles between the strong are like?"

Akuta was torn about whether or not to go and join in the fun.

You should know that this kind of battle between strong individuals isn't something you can just watch casually!

If we don't go see it this time, we might not have the chance next time!

He had no idea what he had done during this challenge that led to Kaido and Oden engaging in a major battle at this particular time.

Perhaps when the next new challenge begins, Oden will return to the original timeline and dance for five years before finally fighting Kaido.

However, Akuta still had some worries in his heart.

Given his current strength, if he were to rashly participate in the battle between Kaido and Oden, he probably wouldn't even be able to let Kaido get past him!

Just as Akuta was struggling with his decision, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the courtyard wall.

Akuta flashed and hid in the shadow of a nearby stone pillar.

The next second, three members of the Beasts Pirates scaled the wall and entered.

"This is Oden's residence? That guy named Akuta must be hiding here!"

"Search! Find him, and Lord Jin will reward you handsomely!"

The three men, each carrying a knife, split up and searched in different directions.

As one of them approached the stone pillar, the shadow beneath his feet suddenly twisted strangely.

He instinctively lowered his head.

Pfft!

Three shadow spikes simultaneously shot out from the ground, piercing the chests of the three men precisely.

The three of them didn't even have time to scream before they collapsed to the ground.

Akuta emerged from behind the stone pillar, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and spat.

"I can't beat Kaido, but I can't beat you! Why does King keep sending people like this to capture me? Do I look weak?!"

On the main street, the battle between Oden and Kaido has reached a fever pitch.

Oden's twin swords were wreathed in a dark purple aura, and each swing was accompanied by a deafening roar that tore through the air.

His body was covered with several wounds of varying depths, and half of his face was stained red with blood.

However, Kaido also had several bloody marks on his shoulders and chest.

"Wow! To witness a battle between such powerful individuals, even dying would be worth it!"

Akuta crouched at the edge of the battlefield, watching the two monsters locked in a fierce battle from afar.

He really can't get involved in a battle of this level right now.

But not being able to get involved doesn't mean you can't do anything.

Akuta shifted his gaze from the main battlefield to the rear of the Beasts Pirates' main force.

Kaido arrived in a great hurry, leaving the supply and wounded teams behind him practically naked.

Since I can't get involved head-on, I'll just stick to what I'm good at.

After speaking in a low voice, Akuta turned and dashed towards another area.

Since direct confrontation is disadvantageous.

The choice of the Akuta is then quite simple.

He went to ambush Kaido's outer guards!

If I can't beat Kaido, can't I at least beat these ordinary pirates?

Meanwhile, Oden, on the main battlefield, was unaware that the Akuta had joined the battle.

His attention was completely focused on Kaido, and only one thought remained in his mind.

Kaido must pay the price today.

"Oden!"

Kaido roared to the sky, then swept his staff horizontally, forcing Oden back several meters.

He then leaped into the air, raising his spiked club high in the air.

"Thunder! Bagua!!!"

A black and red light crashed down from the sky, carrying a destructive pressure, heading straight for Oden's head.

Faced with this devastating attack, Oden neither dodged nor evaded, but instead took a step forward.

He crossed his twin swords above his head, unleashing an incomparably powerful and domineering aura from his body.

"Oden Two-Sword Style: Togen Ten-Fist Technique!"

The two swords slashed at the thunderous Bagua formation.

Boom!!!

The entire main street collapsed completely at that moment, and buildings within a radius of 100 meters were flattened by the shockwave like building blocks.

After the smoke and dust cleared, a huge crater more than ten meters wide was blasted into the ground.

Kaido landed on the north side of the pit, looking down at his wrist.

There was a deep, bone-revealing knife wound on it.

Oden stood on the south side of the pit, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his twin swords still tightly gripped in his hands.

"They can still fight."

Oden raised his head, his eyes sharp.

Kaido suddenly threw his head back and burst into laughter, his laughter containing both anger and a twisted pleasure.

"Good! Good! Good! Oden, you really didn't disappoint me!"

He abruptly flicked the blood off his hand, completely ignoring the fact that his wound was still bleeding.

"Again!"

Just as Kaido and Oden were locked in a fierce battle, their expressions turning pale.

Kurotan Musashi was also pacing anxiously in Orochi Castle.

She was enjoying hot pot and singing when she suddenly received news that Oden and Kaido were fighting, leaving her completely dumbfounded.

No, how could those two have started fighting?!

This doesn't make sense!

According to her plan, Orochi's scheme still needed to be laid out slowly, gradually forcing Oden into a situation where he had nowhere left to retreat.

Only after Oden completely lost the support of the people of Wano Country could the two sides finally go to war.

But now, Kaido and Oden are fighting right here on the main street of the Flower Capital, in front of all the people, without any warning!

This is outrageous!

Given Oden's personality, he would never let Kaido get away with harming civilians.

Given Kaido's temperament, once the fight starts, there's absolutely no way he'll stop to negotiate.

At this time, Oden had not yet lost the hearts of the people of Wano Country.

As long as Oden isn't instantly defeated by Kaido, once Oden gathers the strength of Wano Country, Kaido will definitely be no match for him!

"No, we need to immediately send Orochi to stabilize the situation, and then have Kanjuro mediate..."

Just as Kurozumi Muchan was getting extremely anxious, she suddenly noticed that Kurozumi Orochi showed no sign of panic.

He even had a smug smile on his face!

Mu Chan's expression froze instantly.

Looking at the snake's expression, she suddenly realized something.

"Orochi, have you done something?!"
