"Damn you, Shane!"
Kaido hadn't expected Shane, who was six years younger than him, to be such a sneaky bastard!
There was always some underling who wanted to be the boss. By age alone, Shane should have called him big brother, yet he was trying every possible way to become captain!
"Bad Wind!"
Kaido absolutely refused to serve as Shane's backdrop and plunged headfirst into the Marines surrounding them.
He coiled like a giant python, generating wind blades through his spinning motion.
"I'm so pissed off!"
He was truly furious and resentful, especially toward Shane.
As for this young man, Kaido felt conflicted.
On the one hand, he admired him and wanted to take him under his wing as vice-captain.
On the other hand, he felt Shane kept stealing all the limelight in the most absurd ways, making him feel as though he were becoming the second-in-command.
"My vice-captain's angry, Dragon."
Shane's Conqueror's Haki clashed with Dragon's, knocking out another large group of Marines.
The Marine captain was utterly speechless.
"We won't have much fighting strength left at this rate!"
His head was starting to ache. Even a captain couldn't withstand two successive blasts of Conqueror's Haki.
"Iron Body!"
He could only use Iron Body to resist, but just a moment after he planted his feet...
His eyes widened as Sanjuan Wolf poked him with a finger.
"How scary! He's a steel-plated man!"
Bang!
The captain, who had barely been holding on, had his defenses broken completely.
His eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground without getting up.
There was an enormous gap in fighting strength between a Marine Branch and headquarters.
Even at the same rank, their actual combat strength could differ by several levels.
Still, lasting even a moment made him an elite veteran Marine.
