Kaido, Teach Me Armament Haki, or Hand Over Your Life
The moment Fang Yu stepped out of the ramen shop, the entire street suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
The once bustling market seemed to be paused; the fishmongers' shouts were stuck in their throats; the handkerchiefs of the prostitutes peeking out from the second floor of the teahouse fluttered down into the air; even the wind chimes on the eaves froze and fell silent.
"Despair."
His wooden clogs crushed a fallen leaf.
"Splash—"
All the sliding doors on the street closed at the same time! Passersby didn't even bother to pack up their stalls, and instead carried their children into the alley.
A samurai wearing a straw hat had just drawn his sword when he saw Fang Yu's face and immediately abandoned the scabbard, running away as fast as he could!
"The Fifth Emperor! It's the Fifth Emperor!"
"That monster that wiped out the Navy!"
"Run! A fight is about to break out!"
Behind Fang Yu, Perona floated in mid-air, covering her mouth and chuckling. "Captain, you're more terrifying than the plague~"
Carrot's rabbit ears drooped. "Why is everyone so scared? The captain is so gentle!"
"Gentle?" Nami sneered, plucking the tangerine she had just picked up. "You call sinking twelve warships with one slap and sinking Marine Headquarters with two slaps gentle?"
Red Count walked forward with his cane, his sword, Shusui, trembling slightly in its sheath. "Kaido's territory is more desolate than I imagined."
Suddenly, a commotion broke out on the street corner!
"Really! It really is you!?"
The girl who appeared at the end of the alley, carrying Wolf Fang Club and wearing a special pair of shackles on her feet, was looking at the people on the Ghost Radish with excited eyes.
"I just heard some unusual activity here, like the effects of Conqueror's Haki. I came to check and it turns out to be the Fifth Emperor!"
Yamato, carrying Wolf Fang Club, Earth Flow Fang Yu, his eyes gleaming with fierce fighting spirit.
"Hey! Fifth Emperor!" she shouted, her voice ringing out clearly in the quiet street, "I heard you're strong? Let's have a match!"
Brook and Nami quickly gave Yamato a Yamato look.
Joke!
The entire navy was thrown into the sea by Fang Yu, and their fate is unknown.
Are you some little brat looking for trouble?
Fang Yu stopped, turned his head slightly, and glanced at Yamato's heroic face and the Wolf Fang Club in her hand that exuded Haki.
A slight smile played on his lips as he said casually, "Oh? You want to challenge me?"
"That's right!" Yamato grinned, revealing sharp canines. "Only through constant fighting can we become stronger! Only then can we achieve true freedom!"
Fang Yu chuckled and shook his head, "I have a 'quirk'."
"What's wrong?" Yamato frowned and urged impatiently.
"First, I will not hit women."
"Huh?!" Yamato instantly bristled, slamming his Wolf Fang Club into the ground, shattering the cobblestones. "Don't underestimate me! Take this!"
Without saying a word, she swung her Wolf Fang Club and smashed it down on Fang Yu with the force of thunder!
Fang Yu remained standing in the same spot, speaking at the same pace, and calmly said, "The second problem is..."
"Can't tell the gender!"
"Bang!"
The Wolf Fang Club came crashing down, but Fang Yu caught it steadily with one hand, the Havok causing the signs of the surrounding shops to shake violently.
Yamato's pupils contracted, clearly not expecting her full-force attack to be so easily neutralized. She gritted her teeth and tried to pull back her weapon, only to find that the Wolf Fang Club Fudo.
"You!" She glared at Fang Yu, her fighting spirit intensifying.
Fang Yu tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping playfully over her chest before returning to her face. "So, are you a man or a woman?"
"None of your business!" Yamato roared in fury, kicking Fang Yu hard in the stomach!
Fang Yu dodged to the side, releasing the Wolf Fang Club in the process. Yamato staggered two steps due to inertia and almost fell.
She steadied herself, turned around, and glared at Fang Yu: "You're playing me?!"
"No." Fang Yu shrugged. "I just want to know the gender so I can decide whether or not I should take action."
Yamato's face flushed red with anger. She ripped open her collar, revealing her firm, fleshy breasts. "Look closely! I'm Kaido's son! I'm a man!"
Residents on both sides of the street peeked through their doors, and upon hearing what they heard, they all gasped in shock.
"Yamato Master Yamato is at it again."
She's clearly a girl, but she insists on calling herself a man.
Fang Yu raised an eyebrow, looked her up and down, and suddenly laughed, "Alright, then you should take care of those two lumps on your chest first."
Yamato was taken aback, glanced down at her impressive bust, and immediately became furious and embarrassed. "It's natural! What's it to you!"
"Oh?" Fang Yu feigned surprise. "Then where's your Adam's apple? I haven't seen it."
"I" Yamato, my fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
Fang Yu turned around and waved his hand. "Forget it, I'm not interested in playing house with kids. If you really want to become stronger, you should first learn to recognize yourself."
"Stop!" Yamato suddenly rushed forward and punched Fang Yu in the back. "Stop lecturing me!"
Fang Yu didn't turn his head, but just slightly turned his body, and Yamato's fist grazed the hem of his clothes.
"Leave me alone. I'm going to find Kaido to cause trouble. Before that, I don't want to fight anyone. I have no interest."
Upon Yamato stopped in her tracks. "You're going to fight Kaido!?"
"Um."
"Alright! I'll go with you! I want to see Kaido defeated with my own eyes!"
"Alright. You're too filial. Then lead the way."
Led by Yamato, the group traversed the winding mountain path and soon arrived at Kaido's magnificent palace.
The hall was brightly lit, and faint sounds of singing, dancing, and clinking glasses could be heard.
"Hmph, indulging in pleasure again!" Yamato sneered, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.
Without saying a word, she raised her foot and kicked the heavy palace door hard.
"Boom!"
The palace doors opened with a loud bang, instantly interrupting the singing and dancing inside.
The musicians stopped playing, and the dancers retreated to the side in a panic.
"Kaido! Come out!" Yamato, carrying Wolf Fang Club, strode into the hall and shouted in a loud voice.
On his high seat, Kaido was drinking heartily from a wine jar when he heard that familiar voice. He frowned, slammed the wine jar heavily onto the table, and the wine splashed everywhere.
"It's that unfilial daughter causing trouble again!" Kaido muttered drunkenly, then turned and waved to Queen beside him, "Go, see what kind of crazy thing she's up to this time."
Queen, with a cigar dangling from his lips and his obese body swaying, strolled slowly toward the palace entrance.
He squinted, and after recognizing the person, he grinned, revealing a mouthful of gold teeth. "Yo! Isn't this Yamato? What, want to get beaten up again today?"
Yamato snorted coldly, "Enough nonsense! Kaido? Tell him to come out!"
Queen's gaze swept over Yamato Fang Yu and the others behind Yamato, then he suddenly froze, his cigar clattering to the ground. "The Fifth Emperor!?" His obese body trembled violently! The pressure surged!
Fang Yu, hands in his pockets, Earth Flow: "Get out of the way, Fatty."
Queen swallowed hard, forcing himself to remain calm, and said, "This is the territory of the Beasts Pirates, you..."
"What do you mean 'you'? Get out of here."
Queen suppressed his anger and thought it over. If he simply stepped aside, Kaido would not spare him.
However, if they were to charge directly, it's hard to say whether the Fifth Emperor, who is rumored to have overthrown the Navy with the help of Red Count and numerous Impel Down prisoners, truly possesses Emperor-level strength.
Thinking of this, Queen snorted coldly, "Don't underestimate the Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan, Brachiosaurus Form!"
Fang Yu then conjured a large box of apples on the spot. "Uncle Hong, this is yours. Remember to check if there are any extra Devil Fruit among the apples."
Red Count nodded with a cold laugh, "Hmm! Focus on fighting Kaido! Leave the rest to me!"
Brook and Perona said at the same time, "Me too!"
Fang Yu laughed and said, "Why are you so nervous? I'm just looking for Kaido to 'exchange ideas'—just an exchange!"
