Seeing Luffy fly towards Kaido without any fear, Zoro and the others' expressions changed drastically. Although they knew Luffy wasn't very bright, this time they were facing Kaido of the Beasts.
"That damn bastard, he actually charged in all by himself."
After cursing fiercely, Zoro and the others had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase after him. It would be far too dangerous for Luffy to face Kaido.
However, they were no match for Luffy at all, since he was simply launched away.
Apart from Sanji, who possesses the Speed-Speed Fruit, everyone else present could only catch up on foot. However, Sanji failed to catch up, as they were facing Kaido of the Beasts.
Seeing Luffy charging towards them alone, the members of the Beasts Pirates all stopped smiling. Kaido's eyes even flashed with a glint of light as he gripped the " Hassaikai " beside him.
Luffy wasn't blindly challenging Kaido; he simply never feared his enemies. Even while still in mid-air, he covered his hands with Armament Haki.
"Rubber Bullets!!!"
Flying to within a dozen meters of Kaido, Luffy's face was extremely solemn as he slammed his arm, covered in Armament Haki, directly towards Kaido.
" Thunder Bagua!!!"
Just as Luffy's fist was about to hit Kaido's face, an unexpected scene unfolded. Kaido not only did not dodge, but also took Luffy's punch head-on, though he also managed to grab Luffy's arm.
The " Hassaikai " were covered in Conqueror's Haki, which was Kaido's signature move, " Thunder Bagua ".
"Not good!!!"
" Luffy!!!"
The Straw Hat Pirates ' expressions changed, and they rushed over immediately. Sanji activated the Speed-Speed Fruit's power, and Luffy covered his entire body with Armament Haki.
"Boom!!!"
However, they underestimated Kaido's strength. Perhaps because of Lin Yuan, Kaido had been holding back his anger, and even if he faked his death to escape, he still wanted to teach the Straw Hat Pirates a lesson.
In terms of combat experience, Kaido is miles ahead of Luffy. He can withstand Luffy's attacks and seize any opportunity to deliver a powerful Luffy.
With a loud crash, " Hassaikai " slammed heavily into Luffy, nearly breaking him in half. Luffy coughed up a lot of blood and was sent flying backward like a cannonball.
Sanji was the fastest; he arrived just as Luffy was sent Luffy and tried to catch him.
However, the moment Sanji caught Luffy, his expression changed. The attack power of an emperor was not so easy to withstand. He and Luffy were sent flying backward, crashing to the ground and then flying a long way.
"Puff..."
Sanji couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale.
As for Luffy, he lay quietly on the ground, his face turned towards the ground.
The others arrived and quickly shielded the two behind them. Lawrence stepped forward and Luffy over, only to find his eyes rolled back and he had passed out.
Following Lin Yuan, Luffy was once again knocked unconscious by Kaido's punch. Whether it was Luffy's carelessness or Kaido's unleashing of his full power right from the start, the effect was significant, and the Straw Hat Pirates ' captain Luffy, was once again KO'd.
Lin Yuan, who had come to watch the show, was stunned for a moment, while Kuina and Molly were dumbfounded.
Not only them, Kaido and the others were also dumbfounded. Although their boss was very strong, the guy who could be praised by Lin Yuan was actually knocked unconscious by his boss with a single blow.
Even Kaido was at a loss for what to do for the moment; should he take advantage of the situation and pursue them?
Unlike Zoro and the others, who were wary, King and his group exchanged glances and then looked at Kaido, awaiting his orders.
The scene immediately fell into an awkward situation.
Kaido composed himself, then picked up the huge gourd and took several large gulps to cover up his embarrassment.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and he turned to look in Luffy's direction.
Not only Kaido, but also Lin Yuan, Kuina, and Zoro looked at the unconscious Luffy. In his white eyes, which were rolling back, Conqueror's Haki emanated from his body.
"Heh, interesting. In that case, we'll wait for your rematch. As for the others, you can handle them."
After saying that, Kai Cuo plopped down on the ground, ignoring the Straw Hat Pirates, and started drinking alone.
Upon receiving the order, King, Jack, and the others revealed cruel smiles. As former pirates, they paid no heed to their opponents and charged straight down.
"Everyone be careful! Usopp, Luffy's in your hands now. The rest of you, follow me!"
Zoro drew all three swords and charged towards King instantly; that was his target.
Sanji was even faster, arriving beside Jack almost instantly and then kicking him hard.
Fisher, Higgins, and Lawrence all blocked the opponent's attacks, especially Lawrence, who almost instantly sent the two All-Stars flying.
However, this also attracted an attack from the Flying Six.
However, Lawrence was not afraid at all. He instantly became as hard as steel and directly confronted the Flying Six.
"Holy crap, this guy's got guts!"
Lawrence's performance startled Fisher and Higgins. They hadn't expected the usually mild-mannered Lawrence to be so fierce. However, remembering that he had once Luffy with Luffy, they didn't think much of it.
Seeing the chaotic battle, Usopp was terrified. He held his gun, wanting to attack but then put it down, picked up Luffy, and retreated a few distance.
Although Kaido was sitting to the side drinking, his eyes were also on the battle below. He hadn't expected to knock Luffy unconscious with a single blow, and he was worried that the remaining Straw Hat Pirates members wouldn't be able to withstand it.
However, he quickly relaxed, not expecting that the kid with three swords could actually withstand Jin's attacks.
It's important to know that under his tutelage, Jhin has successfully reached the strength of Admiral.
" Lin Yuan was right. A newly risen Straw Hat Pirates actually has two Admiral -level fighters. They are not to be underestimated."
"And that Devil Fruit User is also freakish; he was able to withstand the combined attack of the Flying Six, and his defense is even more freakish than Jack's."
"Hmm, that curly-browed kid is pretty good too, his speed is ridiculously fast. Jack is hopeless, he can't even touch him. Luckily, he has the shield designed by Lin Yuan."
"As for the remaining two lads, they're quite interesting too. They're both at the level of sword masters, and they use their domineering Haki quite well."
Kaido was increasingly shocked. He never expected that the Straw Hat Pirates would have so many talented people. This was definitely the configuration of an Emperor Pirates crew.
Meanwhile, Molly watched the fierce battle below with great anxiety. She hadn't expected Luffy to be knocked unconscious. Although the others were alright for the time being, Kaido was still lurking and hadn't made a move yet.
Kuina watched the battle below with a speechless expression.
" Lin Yuan, Luffy is really the reincarnation of Joy Boy! His brain is seriously messed up!"
Lin Yuan's expression didn't change much; he used his Observation Haki to keep an eye on Luffy's situation.
He only spoke with a smile when Kuina asked.
"Hehe, don't worry, the real show is just beginning!"
