The Strongest Creature! Four Emperor Kaido!

Roar...

Since Sengoku had rejected him so decisively,

Kaido, who had always been hot-tempered, naturally could not hold back any longer. He roared again and raised his head, gathering dragon breath.

This time, the dragon breath Kaido gathered shocked everyone standing in Marineford Plaza.

At the same time,

Kaido's target this time was directly aimed at the Marine Headquarters building!

It looked like he truly intended to destroy the entire Marine Headquarters.

"This is bad."

"This Kaido has really gone mad!"

"That attack has enough power to destroy an entire island!"

"If Kaido succeeds, Marine Headquarters will truly be destroyed by him."

Fleet Admiral Sengoku's expression hardened. He clenched his fists, seemingly ready to make a move.

After all, as the Fleet Admiral, how could he stand by and watch a pirate destroy Marine Headquarters?

"Mr. Sengoku, leave it to me!"

Before Sengoku could act, Admiral Kizaru moved first. After earnestly tossing out those words, his entire body transformed into a flash of light and shot away.

At the same time,

Kaido had finished charging his dragon breath and unleashed it at Marine Headquarters. Its power spoke for itself.

But Admiral Kizaru had already flashed into the air. After bringing his hands together, he fired a dazzling laser beam straight at the dragon breath.

Immediately after,

Boom!

Kizaru's laser directly detonated Kaido's dragon breath. The collision of the two powerful forces resulted in a violent explosion.

After the thunderous blast, an intense pressure erupted across Marineford Plaza.

Many Marines could not withstand it and collapsed to the ground.

"Is this the power of a Four Emperor and an Admiral?"

Everyone was astonished.

Even all the Seven Warlords were deeply shocked.

Immediately after,

Admiral Kizaru did not waste any words and launched another attack. He rose into the sky once more, and the next second, an enormous flash lit up. After turning into light and soaring into the air, Kizaru crossed his arms, releasing countless dazzling rays that made it impossible to look directly at him.

"Yasakani Sacred Jewel!"

This was one of Admiral Kizaru's proudest techniques!

It could fire countless dazzling light projectiles at a target, making it a large-scale attack!

Kaido was still maintaining his enormous Azure Dragon Form. With such a massive body, combined with the speed of Kizaru's Glint-Glint Fruit, ordinary people truly might not be able to keep up.

As a result, Kaido's enormous body was directly struck by every light projectile from Kizaru's Yasakani Sacred Jewel.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One deafening explosion after another!

Thick smoke billowed from Kaido's position!

"Admiral Kizaru's attack worked!"

"Looks like Four Emperor Kaido is nothing special after all. Our Marine Admirals are stronger!"

Seeing this scene, the many Marines in Marineford Plaza cheered.

Aside from them,

the Marines ranked Vice Admiral and above still frowned deeply, seemingly not believing the situation was all that optimistic.

The same was true for Seven Warlords such as Hawkeye Mihawk and Empress Hancock.

One had to know!

Their opponent was Four Emperor Kaido, known as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air. How could such an ordinary attack from Admiral Kizaru possibly hurt him?

After all, this was not Kaido's first time coming to Marine Headquarters to cause trouble.

If he could truly be defeated so easily, where would Kaido have gotten the confidence to repeatedly come to Marine Headquarters and stir up trouble? This time, he had even declared that he would destroy all of Marine Headquarters.

Sure enough,

just as all the strong fighters had judged,

after the thick smoke dispersed, Kaido appeared before everyone without a single injury.

Still,

it left many people in awe.

"Is this the defensive power of Four Emperor Kaido, the so-called strongest creature?" Empress Hancock was the first to voice her shock.

Even Hawkeye Mihawk, who was usually a man of few words, spoke. "Four Emperor Kaido is indeed powerful!"

The other Seven Warlords felt the same way.

One had to know that the attack just now had come from Admiral Kizaru, one of Marine Headquarters' greatest fighting forces. Ordinary people truly might not be able to take it so easily and remain unscathed.

As for the elite Marines, there was no need to mention them. They had been completely and utterly shaken by the terror of Four Emperor Kaido.

"Borsalino, it's been so long, yet your strength hasn't changed at all. What, were you scratching my itch?"

Facing Admiral Kizaru, Borsalino, Kaido did not take him seriously in the slightest and even taunted him insolently.

"Ohoho, as expected of a Four Emperor. How frightening," Admiral Kizaru said with a smile.

Immediately after,

Admiral Kizaru attacked again!

In midair, Kizaru repeatedly transformed into light as he continuously clashed with Kaido in his Azure Dragon Form.

The entire scene was immensely shocking.

It was not only the Marines who were amazed.

Even powerful figures such as Sengoku, Garp, and all the Seven Warlords were astonished.

Even Roya showed a hint of excitement. "So this is the strength of an Admiral and a Four Emperor? Interesting!"

Roya even seemed eager to give it a try.

At first, the two appeared evenly matched, but gradually, Admiral Kizaru ultimately fell into a disadvantage.

In an unguarded moment,

Kaido directly knocked Admiral Kizaru down to the ground. Pressing his advantage, Kaido dove downward, his enormous body crashing straight toward the ground.

Boom!

Another cloud of smoke shot into the sky.

But after Kaido's massive Azure Dragon Form hit the ground, its shadow vanished.

Just as everyone was puzzled, the smoke gradually dispersed, and a loud shout rang out from within.

"Thunder Bagua!"

In that instant, Kaido had returned to his human form, gripping his spiked club in his hand.

Bang!

Kizaru, who had already been at a disadvantage and knocked down, had no time to react before the spiked club coated in Armament Haki struck him squarely in the face, sending his entire body flying dozens of meters away!

Of course,

Kizaru quickly recovered and transformed into light again, returning to Sengoku's side.

However, Kizaru was now panting heavily, with quite a few injuries on his body.

"Huff, huff, huff..."

"Four Emperor Kaido really is this terrifying!"

Admiral Kizaru said between heavy breaths.

"Borsalino, you've done very well," Sengoku said.

Sengoku knew Admiral Kizaru's strength well, but there was nothing to be done. His opponent was Four Emperor Kaido, known as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air. Borsalino's defeat had actually been within Sengoku's expectations.

At that moment,

Shing!

The crisp sound of a sword being drawn rang out.

Everyone turned their gazes toward Hawkeye Mihawk, one of the Seven Warlords!
