Kaido: Did I Lose My Bolo Breath?

"Tornado Destruction Wind!"

With a dragon's roar, countless bolts of lightning erupted from the sky, striking down at Ye Yu one after another.

Then Kaido's dragon body spun like a top, and hurricane-force winds instantly swept across the entire island. The warship at the shore swayed violently from side to side. Urouge hurriedly secured it tightly against the coast, lest the powerful winds blow it away.

"What terrifying power. But against the captain, Kaido is probably going to suffer badly!" Urouge's eyes brimmed with confidence.

Ever since witnessing Captain Ye Yu's battle against the world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, Urouge had come to believe that no one in this world could stand against Ye Yu!

Ye Yu was the reincarnation of a god!

Tornadoes sprang up one after another, devouring everything around them, mixed with terrifying wind blades.

The intense wind pressure scraped through the air, producing bizarre sounds. It forcibly altered the terrain around Ye Yu, carving enormous fissures through the ground.

Yet no matter how Kaido attacked or how drastically the surrounding terrain changed, Ye Yu remained completely unmoved.

"I'm telling you, Kaido, you're underestimating me too much. This kind of attack is completely useless against me," Ye Yu said calmly.

The dragon in the sky showed no hesitation, his eyes cold and sinister.

"Brat, do you think I don't know that once you activate the Barrier-Barrier Fruit's ability, you have to maintain a single pose?"

As he spoke, the dragon in the sky unleashed streams of Bolo Breath at Ye Yu.

"Ha ha ha! Your Barrier-Barrier Fruit works well against physical attacks, but against my elemental attacks, its defensive effect won't be nearly as good..."

Kaido, who understood the Barrier-Barrier Fruit, had already formulated a plan specifically for Ye Yu.

He would first keep releasing wind blades, forcing Ye Yu to expend a great deal of power to resist them. Moreover, Ye Yu could only maintain that one motion; if he changed it, he would be wounded by the wind blades.

And while the tornado wind blades had yet to stop, his Bolo Breath had already come crashing down!

The barrier stance Ye Yu used to fend off the wind blades could not possibly be perfect for dealing with his Bolo Breath!

And that was only the first step. Most importantly, Kaido's continuous Bolo Breath would heat up Ye Yu's barrier!

Faced with his unceasing Bolo Breath, Ye Yu had only two choices.

One was to hide behind the Barrier-Barrier Fruit, but as the barrier's temperature rose, Ye Yu would be roasted alive!

The other was to abandon his barrier—but then he would have to face Kaido's relentless attacks head-on!

No matter which option the brat chose, it was a dead end!

Streams of Bolo Breath streaked through the sky like fire dragons, continuously scorching the Conqueror's Haki Barrier around Ye Yu.

"How is it, brat? Are you about to be roasted? Hahaha!" The dragon in the sky laughed viciously twice, then unleashed another barrage of Bolo Breath.

Even the sea nearby evaporated into vast clouds of vapor under that searing energy, while all of Kuraigana Island became like a blazing furnace.

Ye Yu felt the heat waves around him and nodded slightly.

Though Kaido looked like a big, brutish oaf, his brain worked rather well.

By sheer dumb luck, he had actually stumbled onto something—indeed, the temperature around Ye Yu was rising.

This attack was easy enough to deal with using Conqueror's Haki. He simply needed to use his Conqueror's Haki to resist and neutralize it.

But that would turn it into a battle of attrition. With the abundance of Ye Yu's current Conqueror's Haki, he could outlast ten Kaidos!

But... he still had things to do. He could not waste a whole day and night here with Kaido!

He... had a much simpler way to resolve this!

Ye Yu directly dispelled his Conqueror's Haki Barrier. Feeling the heat wave rushing toward him, he smiled faintly.

Kaido in the sky thought that Ye Yu had given up resisting.

A strange smile appeared on his face in the sky.

"What's wrong, brat? I thought you could hold on a little longer. You're done already?"

"This is the price for offending our Beast Pirates!"

"I thought you had talent, so I was willing to take you in. But you violated a taboo of the Beast Pirates!"

"You should never have killed Jack the Drought!"

"I will definitely avenge him!"

Ye Yu covered his ears with his hands. Were people in the pirate world all such chatterboxes?

The next moment, Ye Yu spread his arms and assumed a stance.

The streams of Bolo Breath reached Ye Yu's side and instantly vanished without a trace!

Kaido in the sky immediately lost his composure, his face full of disbelief.

"H-How is this possible?"

"My Bolo Breath disappeared?" Kaido asked suspiciously.

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

Kaido roared again, then released three more streams of Bolo Breath in one breath. The surrounding air was scorched until it shimmered and warped.

The three blazing fireballs moved as fast as lightning, reaching Ye Yu's side in an instant.

After firing three Bolo Breaths in succession, Kaido felt utterly exhausted.

This should work now, right? Kaido thought as he panted.

Watching the three Bolo Breaths in the sky, Ye Yu revealed a disdainful expression. This Kaido really was stubbornly single-minded...

Activating the magma power within his body, he made the three Bolo Breaths vanish once more.

The Magma-Magma Fruit was the superior fruit to the Flame-Flame Fruit. Since he could even control scorching magma, ordinary flames could not harm him at all!

His mastery of the Magma-Magma Fruit was a full level higher than Akainu's. Kaido's dragon breath had been directly controlled by Ye Yu and converted into energy within his body!

"You brat, why can you control my dragon breath?" Kaido was dumbfounded again.

Could the brat before him possess two Devil Fruit abilities?

But... that was impossible. A person who ate two Devil Fruits would die!

Faced with Kaido's bewilderment, Ye Yu could not be bothered to explain.

He looked teasingly at Kaido in the sky.

"Now, it's my turn to attack, isn't it, Kaido?"

He directly released the Conqueror's Haki within his body, shaping it into a hundred flying knives.

He wondered whether Kaido could withstand the move he had used to kill the Celestial Dragons!

At Ye Yu's command, the invisible flying knives all shot toward the enormous creature in the sky.

Because of the swarm of flying knives, the entire sky seemed to be sliced apart, and even the air began to distort.

Feeling the pressure rushing toward him, Kaido's eyes widened instantly. What a bizarre method of attack!

It was too fast!

There was no time to dodge!
