"Shane! You absolutely, absolutely have to let me handle this myself!"
Kaido immediately ran from the stern to the bow, even the kanabo in his hand seeming to leap with joy.
He could hardly wait to charge out!
Although he never acknowledged being Shane's vice captain, those words clearly showed a certain leaning.
"The More-More Fruit, World Destroyer, Byrnndi World!"

But just how strong had Bondi's Haki and Rokushiki been in his youth?
