"White Tiger - Wind Steel Shield!"
Bullet crossed his claws, and silvery-white wind power condensed in front of him into a rotating shield, its surface shimmering with metallic luster.
"Clang--!!!"
The spiked club slammed into the shield with a deafening roar!
The shield shattered, but the mace's power was also largely neutralized!
Bullet used the momentum to retreat, his eyes gleaming with excitement:
"As expected of Kaido! That's impressive!"
You're not bad either!
Kaido shook his bleeding arm, and the wound began to heal at a visible speed.
" Mythical Zoan, White Tiger Fruit... It actually has such power! I underestimated you!"
"This is just the beginning!"
Bullet grinned maliciously, his body suddenly expanding, no longer suppressing his size, and entering a fully transformed beast form!
A giant white tiger, over 100 meters long, appeared in the air.
The tiger's body was surrounded by a blue whirlwind and a silver sheen, and the "king" character stripe on its forehead shimmered with a dark golden light.
It exudes the majesty of the Beasts Pirates!
" The Mythical Zoan is still a white tiger, the same level as the boss."
The pupils beneath the mask of ashes in the distance contracted sharply.
Devil Fruit are already rare, and the Mythical Zoan that appear on the high seas are even rarer, you could count them on one hand.
"Mmm... That's awesome!"
Kaido's fighting spirit burned to its peak, and his body swelled up, transforming into his Azure Dragon Form once more!
A dragon and a tiger confront each other in the air!
The Azure Dragon coils, its might overwhelming; the White Tiger stands proudly, its power awe-inspiring!
The clash between the two Mythical Zoan changed the color of the sky over the entire sea area.
" Bolo Breath - Dragon Flame!"
"White Tiger - Howling Wind!"
The dragon's mouth spewed forth blazing flames, and the tiger's mouth unleashed turbulent waves!
Flames collided with wind and thunder in mid-air, triggering a series of explosions!
The island trembled, the sea boiled, and the sky was torn apart!
This is no longer a battle between humans, but a duel between mythical creatures!
Roy and Jhin hovered in the air further away, silently watching the battle.
The flames burning fiercely behind Jin revealed the turmoil within him:
" The White Tiger Fruit... it can actually manipulate natural elements, and its power is no weaker than Kaido Azure Dragon Form!"
Roy said calmly:
"The White Tiger, the god of the West, is in charge of killing and controls the power of wind and metal."
Bullet's compatibility with this fruit is extremely high, and he has almost reached his full potential.
"But Kaido Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon is more deeply developed, coupled with the regenerative abilities of his Awakening Zoan,
In a protracted battle, Kaido still has the advantage.
Jhin looked at Roy: "You don't seem worried at all?"
Roy smiled slightly:
"This battle is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Bullet."
Fighting to the death with other Mythical Zoan Fruit users of the same level would allow him to master the essence of his Devil Fruit abilities more quickly.
"And... look."
The situation on the battlefield has changed again!
"Roar--!"
The white tiger suddenly roared to the sky, and the wind power around it gathered wildly, forming a layer of silver-white armor on its body!
"White Tiger - Wind Armament!"
In its fully transformed beast form, Bullet fused wind element with the sharpness and Haki of metal, creating a unique " Wind Armament "!
"Um?"
Bullet's move was something even Roy had never seen before; it seems to be a secret weapon he had prepared.
Today's battle with Kaido has somehow exposed their connection.
"Take this, Kaido!"
The white tiger's four paws treaded the air, the power of the wind erupting beneath its feet, instantly boosting its speed to the extreme, transforming into a silver-white streak of light, rushing straight towards the azure dragon!
Come on!!!
The Azure Dragon roared, its tail coiled with Conqueror's Haki, and lashed fiercely at the White Tiger!
"Bang--!!!"
The dragon's tail clashed with the tiger's claws, and wind and fire intertwined!
But this time, Baihu's " Wind-Thunder Armament " displayed terrifying defensive and offensive capabilities!
The scales on the dragon's tail were torn apart by the force of the wind, and blood splattered everywhere!
The white tiger's claws also developed cracks, but with the regenerative abilities of Mythical Zoan, they recovered in the blink of an eye!
"Trade injuries for injuries? I'm ready for that!"
Kaido went completely berserk, ignoring his injuries as the Azure Dragon, and engaged in the most primal and savage hand-to-hand combat with the White Tiger!
Dragon claws tear, tiger claws retaliate!
Dragon tail lashes out, tiger tail sweeps across!
Dragon teeth bite, tiger teeth tear!
Blood rained down, staining the sea red!
Every collision triggered extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth, and every bite sent shivers down the spines of the onlookers!
Jin gripped the hilt of his sword tightly; if Roy hadn't been there, he almost would have intervened.
"Don't worry."
Roy's voice remained calm.
"They both held back. This battle is a friendly exchange, not a fight to the death."
As expected, after another violent collision, both the dragon and the tiger retreated simultaneously, creating distance between them.
The Azure Dragon's body was covered in claw marks, and its scales were broken in many places, but the wounds were healing rapidly.
The White Tiger was also badly injured, with its Wind Armor torn in many places, and it was breathing heavily.
But their eyes burned with joy and satisfaction.
"Hehehehe... Hahahaha!!!"
Kaido reverted to human form, threw his head back, and laughed heartily.
"That felt great! That felt so good!"
Seeing that the fight between the two had come to an end, Roy's figure slowly floated down.
" Kaido!"
Roy smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over Kaido's rapidly healing wounds, then at Bullet's slightly disheveled yet undiminished fighting spirit.
"Now can we talk about cooperation?"
Upon hearing Roy's words, Kaido's expression suddenly turned serious. The strength Bullet had displayed was enough to earn the respect of the Beasts Pirates.
Kaido stared at Roy for a few seconds, then suddenly grinned maliciously:
"Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo..."
Bullet has already proven his ability.
But what about you, Roy brat? As the captain, you should be stronger than him, right?
"If you want to cooperate, I'll have to test your mettle first!"
Roy raised an eyebrow, watching Kaido, who was now restless again. He had just finished a fierce battle with Bullet.
Even with the regenerative abilities of Mythical Zoan, Kaido's exhaustion must have been considerable.
" Kaido, you just finished fighting Bullet, you're not at your best," Roy said, drawing his Shusui.
"Let's settle this with one decisive move. There's no need for further pointless probing, how about it...?"
Kaido narrowed his eyes. "One move? Kid, are you underestimating me?"
"No!"
"I just don't want to waste time," Roy said calmly.
"Besides, you've already expended a lot of energy, so this is fairer."
"Hehehehe... Fairness?"
Kaido.
"I don't need fairness! But... deciding the outcome in one move sounds quite interesting!"
Kaido gripped his spiked club " Hassaikai " tightly once more.
"Alright! Just one move! Let me see just how capable you are, captain!"
Roy took a deep breath and slowly ran his left hand along the blade of the ' Shusui ' sword.
"Command - Sharpness!"
"Buzz--!"
As Roy finished speaking, the ' Shusui ' in his hand hummed, and an extremely sharp aura emerged.
A pale white halo appeared on the blade, and as Roy raised the sword, the tip of the blade drew streaks of black cracks in the air.
This scene caused Jin's pupils to shrink sharply in mid-air.
"What is that?! It even shattered and tore apart space itself?!"
