A Visually Brutal Showdown
The nameless island, located not far from Punk Hazard, is more of an island group than a single island. It is vast, exceeding the scope of a typical island, and once you stand on it, you can't see the end of it.
In the blink of an eye, before anyone could even make out what it was, a whooshing sound rang out, and the entire center of the island suddenly trembled. Endless cracks spread out, creating a ravine that crashed into several barren mountains, raising clouds of smoke and dust.
As it landed, blocking out the sunlight, a ferocious beast exuding malevolent energy landed on the island.
"Cough cough"
From the center of the dust cloud came a coughing sound. Ye Chen stepped out of the smoke, wiped the blood from his mouth, looked at the guy in front of him with a somewhat disheveled expression, and rubbed his shoulder.
At the same time, the two Conqueror's Haki collided without stopping, causing the surrounding giant trees to bend over and break branches, as if they had encountered a super typhoon.
"Crackling"
The dark red lightning illuminated the dimly lit scene, filling people with terror. An ordinary person entering this area might be killed by the violent will generated by the collision of two Conqueror's Haki.
"Boy, your Conqueror's Haki is quite impressive." A violent aura erupted, his demonic body as deep and unfathomable as an Abyss. Kaido looked down at Ye Chen. "I hope you'll have some fun with me."
A smile played on Ye Chen's lips as he stared intently at the beast-like creature. A surge of excitement welled up within him. To be honest, after exchanging a few blows, this monster had put pressure on Ye Chen.
Without using his abilities, he might not be a match for the opponent, and even if he did use his abilities, he would probably still be in trouble.
Even so, it couldn't stop Ye Chen from getting excited, because only pressure is the best whetstone. His strength had reached a bottleneck, and he needed a better whetstone to improve.
Right now, Ye Chen wasn't thinking about how to kill the monster in front of him, but rather how to use it to become stronger. It has to be said that Ye Chen was really arrogant and crazy, daring to use the Four Emperors for training.
To make progress, one must first suppress the Devil Fruit ability. Therefore, one should use physical skills and physical strength to decide everything.
"Kaido." Ye Chen beckoned with his finger, taunting Kaido.
A ferocious aura enveloped everything like an abyss. Kaido's eyes widened, and the ground beneath his feet cracked and vanished, reappearing before Ye Chen. His thick thighs, like mountains, caused the air to freeze, before suddenly erupting with terrifying, overwhelming power.
Under the intense pressure of the Armament Haki, Ye Chen, his face contorted with madness, neither dodged nor evaded, choosing instead the most primal physical confrontation, a head-on clash.
The entire atmosphere was compressed, like the thunder of a drum, and the two vastly different right feet slammed together. Instantly, the earth collapsed, and the resulting cracks tore wildly apart the surroundings, forming a basin.
The hurricane sprayed everywhere, whipping up the earth and turning it into a sandstorm tsunami.
His face paled slightly, and Ye Chen, unable to control his strength, was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto a barren mountain, shattering into pieces with a continuous booming sound.
Kaido Backslide two steps back, furious. He hadn't expected that this nobody could force him to retreat.
"Whoosh"
Amidst the thick smoke and dust, Ye Chen moved close to the ground, advancing instead of retreating, forcefully taking the initiative to strike first.
A punch was thrown, creating a sonic boom. At the same time, Kaido also threw a punch, Meteorite collided, the destructive force causing the ground to tremble.
On a mountain peak, Bai Doudou watched everything with a serious expression and without blinking.
If you look closely, you'll see that this guy's eyes are filled with excitement. Even though Ye Chen and Kaido's Conqueror's Haki is constantly flooding the entire scene, Bai Doudou is still restless. Judging from his appearance, he actually wants to go up and fight too.
Yes, that's incredibly daring.
This also shows that Bai Doudou is not as unreasonable as he seems on the surface. On the contrary, his self-esteem is stronger than anyone else's. He knows he is not qualified to fight like this, but his heart is unwilling to be at peace.
With unwavering focus, Bai Doudou absorbed the information, her expression more serious than ever before.
The winds shifted, the earth was torn apart, and an endless storm stirred up ripples.
At the very center, there were two figures, one exuding demonic energy and the other filled with madness. Both were like wild beasts, inspiring awe and fear.
"Boom boom boom"
"Crunch crunch crunch"
A deafening collision, endless dark red lightning snaking around, and that unseen, domineering will, with the aftershocks of the air pressure, surged like a thousand troops, as fierce as fire and water.
As black as ink, a chaotic force bombarded the area. Ye Chen flashed forward, his right leg sweeping across.
In that instant, a deafening sound pierced the air, the ground collapsed, debris flew everywhere, and a storm swept up sand and dust, engulfing everything.
With one hand placed on his chest, his thick, powerful hand gripped the black foot, the force so strong it shook the earth.
"Boy, your strength is a bit lacking."
Without a sound, Kaido gripped Ye Chen's right foot tightly, his thick black hair flying wildly.
Ye Chen remained silent, showing no surprise whatsoever, for the stronger the opponent, the more excited he became.
He flipped and spun, his left foot piercing through, and with tremendous force, like a meteor, he slammed into Kaido's chest.
This time, Kaido couldn't resist and was sent flying.
With a tremendous roar, the ground shattered into pieces. In the crater, Kaido stood up, looked down at the smoke on his chest, and casually patted it off; there was no damage whatsoever.
"This little bit of power only made me feel pain; I'm somewhat disappointed."
A hint of disappointment appeared on Kaido's face.
Looking at Kaido's unharmed chest, Ye Chen straightened up and narrowed his eyes. He hadn't expected the opponent's defense to be so strong. Although there was Armament Haki covering it, he knew his own strength. If it were any other strong person, they would have broken a bone long ago, or at least coughed up blood.
But the guy in front of me didn't seem to feel any discomfort whatsoever.
"As expected of Kaido, an immortal monster."
This defensive power far exceeds human limits. Even without Armament Haki, this monster's physical defense alone could crush any Vice Admiral.
Most importantly, this monster's strength, recovery ability, endurance, and defense are all top-tier.
"Marine Ghost, you're not bad either, but you're still too weak." Kaido moved his thick, inhuman arm, glaring angrily, his savage, deep aura instantly pressing down on the ground.
"Boom"
Looking directly ahead, the ground exploded, and the earth beneath their feet shattered once more. In a flash, two beams of light shot out like meteors.
A blur appeared as a thick arm, brimming with terrifying power, Armament Haki with immense force, slamming towards Ye Chen.
At the same time, Ye Chen's Armament Haki rapidly circled around him, showing no fear as he forcefully met the attack.
The sound resounded through the sky, the world froze, and two asymmetrical fists collided with a deafening roar. In an instant, sand and stones flew, and a calamity swept up endless dust and wind, causing chaos in all directions.
With a dull thud and a tremendous impact, Ye Chen felt a stiffness in his fist, and even his body trembled slightly.
