Kozuki Toki's Resolve

At the edge of the Flower Capital.

Compared to the battlefield at its center, where forces clashed like natural disasters, this place was eerily "quiet."

In the distance.

BOOM!!!

Thunder rolled. The sky tore open, then closed again.

Fire, lightning, and black flames intertwined in an apocalypse that seemed to have no end.

But here—

The ground trembled faintly, and even breathing felt heavy.

"Thud... thud..."

A massive brachiosaurus inched forward with its body almost pressed to the ground.

It wasn't walking. It was crawling.

Queen was at the end of his rope. Sweat covered his forehead, and his voice shook.

"Stop it... please, stop it..."

"Seriously, stop it already..."

He was practically begging. "Please, young master, let's go back!"

"We really can't go over there!!!"

He sounded close to breaking down.

Every explosion in the distance made his entire bulky body twitch.

Yamato stood motionless atop the dragon's head.

Her gaze was locked on the sky.

There, lightning and a dragon were locked in battle.

BOOM!!!

Another collision sent lightning bursting outward and clouds collapsing.

Yamato's eyes lit up.

"That's incredible!"

She couldn't help shouting. Her voice rang clear, without a trace of fear—only pure excitement.

"He can actually beat Father up like that!"

She leaned forward, her eyes sparkling.

"Who is that guy?!"

Queen froze. His eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"Young master, are you seeing this right?!"

"That's Kaido getting beaten up! Your father!!"

"Why do you sound so excited about it?!"

He was beside himself.

But Yamato wasn't listening.

She even took a step forward, her foot making a faint sound against his scales.

She looked ready to charge straight into the fight.

"Now that's a battle..."

She murmured under her breath, her breathing quickening slightly.

"That's what..."

Her eyes grew brighter, her resolve
