As Kaido's massive body completely vanished into the lava abyss a thousand meters underground, the air across all of Onigashima seemed to be sucked dry in that instant.
The nightmare that had hung over Wano Country for twenty years, as invincible as a god, had finally been overturned by the tide of the new era.
