Kaido Arrives
Doflamingo suppressed his anger, watching Blackbeard on either side of him, occasionally gulping down his treasured red wine. The wine on the table was visibly decreasing!
Thinking of his already meager collection in his wine cellar, and then of the hundred bottles of red wine he was supposed to give to Blackbeard! For a fleeting moment, Doflamingo even thought Aokiji had entered his body! Otherwise, how could his heart have felt so cold on such a sweltering day...?
"Little Ming, what's wrong? Judging from your expression, is there something you're having trouble telling us?" Teach's sudden question almost made Doflamingo fall off his chair. He wiped the cold sweat from his brow, suppressing his anger, and said, "Hmph! Mr. Blackbeard really loves to joke! How could I possibly have something I'm having trouble telling us!"
"But you look like you're constipated!"
Doflamingo:...
"You're too kind! By the way, Dressrosa has another unique feature!" Doflamingo exclaimed, his eyes lighting up. "Our arena is incredibly popular! Countless warriors fight there! The battles are truly exhilarating! I wonder if Mr. Blackbeard would be interested?"
"Not interested!"
"That's great, how about..." Doflamingo paused, thinking, "Blackbeard, didn't he just say he wasn't interested?"
"Hahaha! Just kidding! How about you show me around in a bit?" Teach looked at Doflamingo with a playful expression.
Hearing Teach's words, Doflamingo's face, which had been ashen like the bottom of a pot, softened slightly. However, he was somewhat comforted that he could finally save a few bottles of his treasured red wine...
The banquet ended in such an awkward situation. With Doflamingo in a state of agonizing distress, Teach only took about 200 bottles of red wine, which wasn't much—just about two-thirds of his treasured collection...
Heartbroken, Doflamingo made an excuse, sending Dellinger, a member of his clan, to accompany Teach to the arena. No sooner had the two left than Doflamingo's furious roar echoed through the castle of the King's Plateau...
"Mr. Blackbeard! This is the largest arena in our Dressrosa Kingdom! Our Donquixote Family's executive, Mr. Diamante, is the strongest Champion in this arena!" Dellinger kept introducing the arena to Teach, but Teach was distracted the whole time, after all, Dellinger was his nightmare from his previous life!
Wow! This young lady from the Donquixote Family is so beautiful! I've got material for my dreams tonight!
"Those long legs! They're so exciting!"
"Ah! Why?! Why is he a man?! My girl is gone!! Bu Yao!!"
"Destroy it all, I'm tired..."
(Based on the author's personal experience...)
"Mr. Blackbeard, you don't seem very interested..." Dellinger gave an awkward laugh, then was kicked away by Teach!
"I hate sissies the most!" Teach said coldly. "Shut your mouth! Otherwise, I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"
Dellinger was furious, but with his strength, if he rushed forward, he would only be kicked to death by Teach! Faced with a life-threatening situation, he had no choice but to shut his mouth and follow behind Teach with a forced smile...
The sky slowly darkened, the air became unusually heavy, and an ominous premonition rose in Teach's heart...
"Ooh lol lol lol... Blackbeard brat, I've been looking for you for ages!" A deep and distinctive laugh echoed from the sky, Teach's pupils contracted as he looked up.
A mythical creature hovered in the sky, an Azure Dragon soaring through the clouds. Its enormous beastly eyes stared intently at Teach, eventually emitting a strange "ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo" laugh.
"Beast Kaido! Why is he here?!" Dellinger couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. As a member of the Donquixote Family, he naturally knew his young master's biggest backer. Moreover, Beast Kaido was famous throughout the entire sea, and even their young master dared not challenge Beast Kaido's authority!
"Bang!"
Dellinger was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted!
"I told you, shut your mouth! Your voice is really annoying!" Teach punched Dellinger away, then stared intently at Kaido in the sky!
Why did Kaido come looking for me?
After a moment's Teach had the answer! Without a doubt, Kaido's actions were absolutely to save Drought Jack!
Although Kaido many ways, Teach has to admit that Kaido cherishes talent and likes to recruit combatants. He welcomes anyone who wants to become his subordinate and never thinks he has too many powerful troops! He has a friendly and easy-going personality and is extremely tolerant of his subordinates!
Clearly, Kaido is indeed a very charismatic person, no wonder Jack is so loyal to him!
"Hehehe! Beast Kaido! We don't seem to have any grudges, do we? Why are you looking for me?" Teach lied through his teeth. Facing the strongest creature, he naturally dared not be careless!
"Hmph! You captured my prized subordinate Jack, so naturally I'll find a way to get him out!" Kaido sneered, a hint of impatience in his eyes.
"Then you should go to our headquarters! Drought Jack is locked up there, what good are you coming to me for!"
"Do you think I'm stupid? I heard that old Whitebeard has regained his peak fighting power. Going there now would just be asking for a beating, wouldn't it? Don't think that just because I'm big, I'm easy to fool!" Kaido said matter-of-factly, without the slightest bit of shame.
"Uh! That's true!" Teach hadn't expected Kaido to answer so readily. Since coaxing him had failed, he had no choice but to think of other methods.
"Alright! I don't have that much time to mess around with you! If you know what's good for you, come with me! After you rescue Jack, I'll let you go! After all, I don't want to face a raging Whitebeard!"
What if I say no?
"Oh? Then I'll see how much of your 3.5 billion bounty is inflated! Bolo Breath!"
Without giving Teach a chance to speak, Kaido condensed a scorching aura in his mouth, and the next second, a thick beam of light slammed towards Teach's position!
"Hahaha! Then let me see just how capable you are, the Strongest Creature!" A cold glint flashed in Teach's eyes, and he instantly entered his Hybrid Form!
"Kaido, let's fight!"
