I can't beat this guy!

Ochoku finally came to terms with this reality.

He was no longer a naive young man who believed that he could defeat a stronger enemy simply by fighting to the death.

Power is an objective reality!

"Bolo Breath!"

A scorching breath swept in, threatening to engulf Ochoku in the next instant.

Ochoku sprang into the air, dodging the attack, and shouted, "Doro! Take me away!"

We can't continue fighting. If we keep going, Kaido will beat us to death sooner or later.

Moreover, there were others spying on the distant sea.

"Um?"

Kaido, who was carrying a spiked club, paused for a moment, then a red light flashed in his eyes.

His face suddenly Overgrowth with rage, "Where do you think you're going!"

The ground beneath his feet shattered with a deafening roar, Kaido shot out at such speed that Ochoku was in mid-air, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.

This guy definitely hasn't reached his limit yet!

It's so big, but it's faster than him!

But it's still not fast enough.

Doro's abilities are such that no one can catch him!

Laugh!

A figure appeared beside Ochoku in an instant.

Ochoku's second-in-command, a man named Doro, placed his hand on Ochoku's shoulder while glancing at Kaido with a hint of fear.

What kind of monster is this guy?! Even Captain Ochoku is no match for him?

"Kaido, we'll meet again someday!"

Ochoku made a harsh statement.

The next instant, the two of them vanished from the spot.

Almost simultaneously, the iron rod came hurtling through the air, striking nothing at all.

Kaido landed silently on the ground.

"Aaaaaaah!!"

The furious roar stirred up a storm, causing wave after wave to surge across the sea.

That damned Ochoku, how dare he run away!

He hasn't vented enough yet!

Where else could he be—

Um?

Kaido suddenly turned his head and looked at the distant sea.

There are still people here!

On the distant sea.

"They ran away already?"

Naito was somewhat surprised. Ochoku hadn't even reached his limit yet, had he? He wasn't even seriously injured.

Knowing there was no chance of victory, Ochoku had no reason to continue fighting.

Zephyr slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "However, Kaido can't stop Ochoku either. Doro, one of Ochoku's subordinates, is Paramecia Instant- Devil Fruit User. No matter how fast Kaido is, he can't keep up with spatial teleportation."

So, did Van Augur steal his abilities from this guy in the future?

"In that case, the war is over."

Zephyr turned around and gave the order, "Retreat—"

He suddenly paused.

Naito looked up as well. "Professor Zephyr, it seems he doesn't think that way."

Zephyr turned around abruptly, his expression grave.

A gigantic azure dragon snaked its way across the sky.

"Madman!"

Zephyr cursed, "Naito, Gion, prepare for battle! Simon, contact headquarters."

"Learn."

Vice Admiral Simon immediately pulled out his Den Den Mushi.

"Is the opponent Kaido?"

Momousagi stepped forward, standing on the other side of Zephyr, her hand already resting on the Famous Sword, Konpira, at her waist. "This is a terrible situation."

Naito cracked his neck; if a fight really broke out, it would be quite troublesome.

But, will a fight break out?

I'm afraid that won't work. Does Kaido have the courage to take such a desperate gamble?

"After watching the show for so long, you're already thinking of leaving?"

The enormous blue dragon was over a thousand meters long. Kaido, who was towering above, simply opened his mouth, and a gust of wind rose from the sea.

"Kaido!"

Zephyr, his feet planted on the ship's railing, displayed an unprecedented arrogance, a stark contrast to his usual refined demeanor. "Go back!"

"Oh? Black Arm Zephyr,"

Kaido interest. "Old man, are you talking to me?"

I'll only say it once!

Zephyr ripped off his gold-rimmed glasses and ran his hand through his smooth purple hair. "If you don't want the Three Admirals and Garp to appear in Wano Country together, then go back to where you came from!"

Kaido's expression visibly stiffened for a moment.

The next instant, his eyes became even more dangerous, and his massive head lowered. "Are you threatening me?"

You can give it a try!

Zephyr's voice was cold and stern.

Kaido hesitated for a moment.

Should we fight?

I certainly won't lose against an old geezer like Zephyr.

But what happens after that?

How should we face the Navy's retaliatory attacks? And not just the Navy, but also the World Government, CP0, and even the God's Knights.

Leaving early is definitely not a problem, but can we abandon Wano Country?

Of course not!

However, not being able to wipe them all out doesn't mean we can't do something.

Otherwise, where would I put my face?

"Hehehehe! I'll see what happens when I try!"

The dragon raised its head, and in the next instant, scorching flames crashed down, "Bolo Breath!"

"Drink!"

Zephyr leaped up and threw a powerful punch.

The roaring Haki transformed into a beam of light, which suddenly collided with Kaido's flames, resulting in a massive explosion.

Amidst the explosion, a figure was propelled into the air, flying directly in front of Kaido.

"Um?"

Kaido raised an eyebrow slightly.

He recognized this kid; he was that future star of the Navy—

"Thousand Shadows!"

Thousands of illusory images appeared in the sky.

"Oh?"

Kaido raised an eyebrow with interest.

The eyes simply can't distinguish them, and even Observation Haki can't tell the difference!

"Tempest Kick - Black Flash!"

In an instant, countless jet-black Chop shot out.

Kaido made no attempt to dodge; he was just a mere brat—

"Puff!"

The massive cross-shaped scar on the dragon's waist was instantly torn apart, and blood splattered out.

"Oh my!"

Kaido cried out in pain.

How could that be!

How could a little brat hurt him?

"Are you kidding me!"

The blazing flames swept across the sky, engulfing all of Naito's clones in front of him.

But at that moment, Naito had already landed lightly on top of the mast.

You like not having to Future Sight, you like to take the hurt head-on, right?

"You brat!"

Kaido suddenly lowered his head, staring intently at Naito, and unleashed a torrent of Conqueror's Haki.

Naito held his head high, showing no fear. Although much weaker, his Conqueror's Haki surged forth with equal force!

In an instant, accompanied by the violent black Inazuma brought about by the collision of two Haki, the entire naval warship trembled violently, the hull was cracked, and the sea was filled with surging waves.

The Gion Vice Admiral looked up.
