Pirate Catcher in the Rye

"Dragon Breath!!!"

Suddenly, Kaido opened his mouth wide, and a dark red beam of light condensed in his mouth, aiming at Hawkins in front of him.

boom -

The beam shot out at an astonishing speed.

Swish swish!

The green dragon at Hawkins' feet quickly opened its mouth, and a sharp-edged trident appeared in its mouth.

"Roar!"

Soryu looked up to the sky and roared, and the huge trident suddenly met the beam of light sent by Kaido.

"boom!!!"

The trident and the dark red beam collided violently between the two.

A deafening roar resounded through the sky, and the terrifying shock wave made the two people's bodies retreat, and their eyes narrowed slightly!

"Scarecrow card - Li!"

"Shhhhh!"

at the same time,

Bunches of straw poured out, and Canglong's body continued to split.

Giant dragons of the same size appeared around it. Eight huge blue dragons surrounded Kaido, roaring and roaring at each other.

Whoops!

Soon, eight blue dragons slowly approached, gradually shrinking the encirclement.

"Do you think you can defeat me with a pile of weeds?"

"Too naive, kid."

zizi~

The roar of thunder and lightning sounded on Kaido's dragon claws, and shocking thunder surged out from his claws and rushed towards the two blue dragons in front of him.

puff!

In just an instant, the two huge black dragons were pierced by lightning, and a hole several meters wide was opened in their chests!

"Shhhhh!"

However, before Kaido could continue, the bodies of the two blue dragons were filled with straw and they recovered as before.

At the same time, the other six giant dragons roared and opened their bloody mouths to bite Kaido's huge dragon body.

"The scales on this body are really thick. With such terrifying bite force, it can't even bite through your flesh and blood."

"Sure enough, if I want to hurt you, I still have to do it myself!"

"Ittōryu·Iai—Hikari!"

puff!

Above Canglong's head, Hawkins jumped up, and a deep black light flashed above his sword.

Hawkins held 'Otto Claire' and pierced Kaido's body with a sword.

Although Kaido is known as an immortal monster, facing an opponent of the same level, his defense is not impossible to break, but it is almost difficult to kill him!

"Don't think that just because you are the Four Emperors, you are looking down on the others. There are so many monsters in this sea."

"Miracles happen every day..."

"Besides, this is not a miracle, and I am not the trash you have encountered in the past!"

"Liu Ying-curling blade!"

Hawkins breathed a sigh of relief,

The rolling cherry blossoms followed his open wounds and turned into countless slashes, violently impacting Kaido's internal body.

Suddenly,

Waves of tearing sounds came from inside Kaido's body!

"Oohhhhhhhh~"

"It was such a pleasant attack that all the blood in my body was boiling. You really didn't let me down. It's worth fighting with all my strength."

Kaido was not surprised but overjoyed, his bloodthirsty pupils tightened, and he let out a satisfied groan.

He thought that except for the other three emperors and admirals, no one in this sea could hurt him.

But now, there is one more such person!

Kozuki Oden was the regret in his heart. He had been extremely eager to fight that man head-on.

result…

That fool, His Highness, finally fell for his stupidity and conspiracy, and in order to obtain the country of Wano, he also acquiesced in that disgraceful approach.

"Get off here, you bastard, who allowed you to stand on my head!" Suddenly, seeing Hawkins staying on top of his head, Kaido roared angrily.

unfortunately,

No matter how he swung, Hawkins remained completely unmoved, as if the straw beneath his feet had taken root.

Although the dragon form is powerful, it is also very troublesome to fight against enemies hundreds of times smaller than yourself, especially this kind of close combat!

"What a savage guy. This is a one-on-one duel. Are you looking down on me in this form?"

"Who do you think you are up against? I am Basil Hawkins, are you sending a beggar away?"

"Chain of Binding the Dragon!"

Whoa!

I saw bundles of chains wrapped with armed domineering, tightly tying up the giant dragon that Kaido had transformed into.

Not only that, Hawkins held 'Otto Claire', inserted it into the open wound, and ran at high speed along Kaido's body.

swipe-

In the blink of an eye, Hawkins had already run from the dragon's head to the dragon's tail, and behind him was a bloody road.

gurgling~

Rolling blood flowed down through the dragon scales, falling from the sky.

"Roar---"

Kaido roared angrily, but unfortunately his body was bound by chains, and there were eight giant blue dragons biting his body from all directions, preventing him from going on a rampage.

Strictly speaking, this form of his is not suitable for one-on-one combat, but is more suitable for one against many.

on the other hand,

Although he paid enough attention to Hawkins in terms of actions, in terms of behavior, it was completely the opposite.

He looks down on newcomers!

Not to mention Hawkins!

In his opinion, this war is just a matter of course, without any risks.

"click~"

There was a crunching sound from Kaido's body, and his body instantly transformed into a human form.

Returning to human form also shows that Kaido is completely serious and regards Hawkins as an opponent of the same level!

"Looks like the sideshow is over, it's long overdue."

Snapped!

Hawkins snapped his fingers, and the eight huge blue dragons slowly disappeared without a trace.

These blue dragons can still play a role in containing Kaido in dragon form, but now that Kaido has returned to his human form, their role ends here.

If you continue to stay, apart from consuming Hawkins' physical strength, the containment effect will be extremely limited!

"Thundering gossip!"

Whoosh!

The next moment, a terrifying sound of thunder sounded. Kaido waved a huge thorn iron rod and passed by Hawkins.

Bang! ! !

Hawkins' body suffered a heavy blow and he staggered down, falling slowly from a high altitude.

"Killed in one blow?!!"

Seeing this scene, Kaido was slightly stunned. He thought he would win, but he didn't expect Hawkins to be so fragile.

wrong! ! !

Suddenly, Kaido reacted.

The blow he just struck did hit Hawkins' body, but there wasn't even a drop of blood on the falling figure.

This is obviously extremely abnormal!

"The appearance of subduing demons - Night Demon!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind Kaido, and a long sword covered in armed haki came out from his chest.

Blood splatters!

Looking down again, I saw that the falling 'Hawkins' had turned into a scarecrow!

"You can't defeat me with all your strength. Every move you make has been rehearsed in my mind, and..."

"Compared to Kizaru, your speed is far behind!"

"If you don't take it seriously, I'm going to poke a hundred holes in you!"

Whoosh!

After saying that, Hawkins quickly retreated and avoided Kaido's backhand.

His Observation Color Haki clearly sensed that Kaido's aura was weaker than before. Of course, it was just the aura, and Kaido's strength would not be reduced.

All of this was within Hawkins' expectations, and what he had to do was to continuously accumulate advantages and promote the process from quantitative change to qualitative change.

Not a bad start!

"Historical Haki? No, my Haki is not weak either. This feeling of being completely under control of every move..."

"Foresee the future!"

Kaido frowned and glanced at the injury on his chest casually.

This injury is nothing to him. He can recover immediately. The key is what Hawkins showed!

The development of the domineering power of knowledge and information is related to talent and mental power. In this sea, there are very few people who can develop it to the extent of foreseeing the future.

not only that,

It was obviously the first time the two met. Hawkins seemed to know his moves very well, but he knew nothing about Hawkins' abilities!

The asymmetry of intelligence has meant that he has been suppressed by the opponent from the beginning of this battle to the present.

but,

This makes it more challenging!
