A Raid on Their Home Base

Time slipped away as I listened to the music.

Soon, the sounds of fighting outside gradually subsided.

Samael returned to the banquet hall and dispelled the surrounding firewalls.

"Captain, aside from some servants who are not capable of fighting, I have dealt with all the samurai and ninjas in the city."

The servants should have run away long ago; now, in this vast General's City, there are hardly any living people left.

"You've worked hard. Sit down and have a drink. Kaido should be here soon."

Dimon leisurely waited for Kaido of the Four Emperors.

The Flower Capital is quite far from Kuri. After leaving the General's Mansion, Kyoshiro quarters, found a horse, and headed to the Kuri region.

This round trip will take at least a day. I just hope nothing bad happens to Her Highness the Princess.

He was anxious and dared not linger for even a moment.

The next day, very early in the morning.

Onigashima, the headquarters of the Beasts Pirates.

The island is located south of Wano Country's main island, isolated overseas. At the center of the island is a giant skull, and the castle of the Beasts is built within the skull.

At this moment, in a room deep within Skull Dome.

A man dressed in black armor and wearing a pointed mask pushed open the door and entered.

"Kaido, intelligence from the Flower Capital indicates that assassins attacked Kurozumi Orochi last night, and the Shogun's mansion has now been captured by the enemy."

The man known as Kaido sat slumped drunk, surrounded by empty sake jars.

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Kaido opened one eye, his expression slightly tipsy.

"Huh? The Orochi is dead?"

He had barely finished speaking when he picked up a wine jar, tilted his head back, and began to gulp down the wine, only to find that the jar was already empty.

He let out a burp and tossed the jar aside in dissatisfaction.

Who is the enemy?

"It's still unknown. They could be pirates from outside, or they could be remnants of the Kozuki Family."

Jin reported truthfully that the information coming from the Flower Capital was unclear, consisting of what some guests who had escaped said, and they knew nothing about the specifics.

The fact that no specific intelligence has been received is itself a form of intelligence, indicating that Kurozumi Orochi and his entire group of subordinates have been wiped out.

"Oh, oh, oh... that's interesting!"

Kaido laughed heartily, finally bringing some change to his boring days. "That piece of trash Orochi, let him die if he wants. I'll go see him myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, his head transformed into a dragon's head, and his neck stretched out suddenly.

In the blink of an eye, a blue dragon burst out from the top of the Skull Dome and headed towards the Flower Capital.

Seeing this, Jin quickly walked to the window, leaped out, and his figure rapidly changed in mid-air, transforming into a jet-black Pteranodon in the blink of an eye.

Zoan Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon Form!

Zoan Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan Pteranodon Form!

Flower Capital

After listening to song and dance performances all night, Dimon was sleepy.

Kozuki Hiyori and couldn't sit still for long. Judging by the time, Onigashima must have already received the news, and Kaido's Beasts Pirates must be on their way.

"Um... Captain, you'd better run quickly. I'll prepare the knife; you can come back to me to get it anytime."

Kozuki Hiyori kindly reminded me.

Although she was now a hostage, she realized that these people didn't intend to hurt her; they were only after the two knives.

As for her father's belongings, Kozuki Hiyori didn't think it was a bad thing to hand them over to the person who would help her take revenge, since she didn't know swordsmanship and wouldn't need them anyway.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Dimon opened his eyes, his Observation Haki detecting a single, or rather, two powerful auras.

He got up and walked outside the banquet hall, looking up at the distant sky.

"Samael, your good teacher has arrived."

Where? Where?

Samael, his face beaming with excitement, ran to Dimon's side, and together they looked up at the sky.

The morning sunlight dyed the clouds golden, and a gigantic azure dragon appeared and disappeared among the clouds.

Hehehehe...

Samael chuckled twice, his body transforming into pure element, and suddenly charged towards the Azure Dragon.

Kaido was still half-drunk and half-awake when he vaguely saw a human-faced will-o'-the-wisp approaching.

What is it?

"Good morning, Kaido, one of the Four Emperors! I've been waiting for you all night!"

The human-faced ghost fire laughed loudly, and the fiery hand it conjured clenched into a fist, fiercely blasting towards the Azure Dragon.

"Fire Fist!"

The Fire Fist the Azure Dragon, exploding in a dazzling display like fireworks.

The people of the Flower Capital all looked up, staring at the scene in the sky, their mouths agape in disbelief.

"Kaido... Kaido!"

Chapter 136 Stealing the Home

"Logia Flame-Flame Fruit... You are Samael of the Seven Deadly Sins!"

Ember flapped its wings, its gaze fixed on Samael.

As for Kaido, who was attacked, there's no need to worry about him at all.

The Azure Dragon, engulfed in flames, shook its head, sobering up somewhat.

The enormous dragon head emerged from the flames, completely unharmed.

"Oh ho ho ho... The Wrath of the Seven Deadly Sins?"

Kaido's interest was immediately piqued. Looking at the human-faced will-o'-the-wisp, he said, "I heard you have a subordinate who ate my Copy-Copy Fruit."

"You mean Sigma? That guy just sleeps all day. You'll never see him."

Samael was not at all surprised that the fire attack was ineffective; he just noticed that the other party was a bit sleepwalking and wanted to wake him up.

"This world doesn't need two dragons!"

The Azure Dragon snorted and lunged at Samael with its gaping maw.

"You dare come to my turf? You better be prepared, you brat!"

The Azure Dragon swallowed the human-faced ghost fire whole, then continued its momentum, crashing straight into the Flower Capital below.

Boom!

In an instant, the enormous azure dragon's body crashed down, flattening an entire street.

High above, Jin was speechless for a moment.

Kaido drank a bit too much last night and isn't thinking clearly right now. Hopefully, he won't completely wipe out the city of Flower Capital.

Kurozumi Orochi is most likely dead, but all that's needed is to support another general.

As he pondered, Jin's gaze shifted, and his Observation Haki detected the presence of Dimon and Lycaon.

He immediately swooped down, his sharp beak like an arrow, piercing straight towards the general's mansion below.

Lycaon grinned, instantly entering his Awakening form. He took a step forward and leaped into the air to intercept the attack.

The wolf's claws gripped the bird's beak tightly as it slowly greeted the bird:

"I heard you're also Ancient Zoan?"

"You are Lycaon, the 'Werewolf' of the Seven Deadly Sins..."

Jin immediately recognized the other person; despite wearing a hood, it couldn't hide his mouth.

Moreover, those pitch-black Flame Clouds were actually Awakening Zoan!

You flew too high!

Lycaon gripped the bird's beak tightly, then swung it violently towards the city below.

Boom!

Pteranodon pierced through a house, its beak lodged diagonally in the ground, where it remained for a long time.

As soon as Jin deactivated his transformation and regained his footing, his Observation Haki detected his opponent's attack.

Lycaon opened his sharp claws and slammed them towards Jhin's chest.

Faced with relentless attacks that gave him no chance to breathe, Jhin remained calm, flames erupting behind him as he braced himself against the onslaught.

The claws seemed to land on hard steel, failing to leave a mark on Jin's chest, and the impact only knocked him back several dozen meters.

"Such tough defense, much tougher than steel."

Lycaon raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Jhin steadied himself, drew a massive katana from his waist, and pointed it at Lycaon.

"What is the purpose of your Seven Deadly Sins attacking the General's Mansion? Are you declaring war on our Beasts Pirates?"

No comment.

Lycaon extended his right hand, and the golden mark on his palm instantly shone brightly.

What is this guy trying to do...? Jin was slightly taken aback and frowned as he watched this scene.

As the golden light faded, a piece of Poneglyph suddenly appeared before his eyes.

"You must think your defense is really strong, right? Well, let me show you what true world-class defense looks like!"

Lycaon was in high spirits and immediately merged with the Big Stone.

The next moment, a werewolf with skin as hard as stone was born.

Jin stared in disbelief at the scene before him. What an astonishing sight! An Awakening Zoan being fused with a Poneglyph?

"Bedrock Werewolf!"

Lycaon's voice deepened, and he beckoned to Jhin with a defiant finger.

"Come on, chop! Quick, use your strength!"

His tone mimicked Samael's, sounding incredibly irritating.

Jin was a serious person, and he couldn't tolerate such provocation.

"Fire Dragon Emperor!"

Flames engulfed his katana as Jhin swung his sword at Lycaon from dozens of meters away.

The scorching flames, like magma, formed a dragon shape and roared as it devoured Lycaon.

Despite being engulfed in flames, Lycaon remained in his original position, offering no defense whatsoever.

He mocked:

"Even your grandma knows how to give a massage better than you!"

A cross appeared on Jin's forehead. This werewolf's mouth is really sharp, but his defensive capabilities are genuine.

He moved swiftly, closing the distance to his opponent, and brought his massive katana down on his head without mercy.
