Chapter 300: Thunderous Eight Trigrams!
Chapter 300: Thunderous Eight Trigrams!
Without waiting for Lily to shout, Sag noticed the anomaly in the sky as soon as Gabura finished speaking.
As far as the eye could see, a massive black shadow descended like a bolt of black lightning. It fell swiftly toward the ground, appearing like a small mountain from the high altitude, and landed directly on the castle up ahead.
Boom!
As if struck by a giant hammer, the castle crumbled from its center outward at the moment of contact with the shadow, turning into ruins with countless cracks along its edges. The violent shockwave rippled outward, collapsing half of the nearby buildings.
Amidst the impact, the nearby pirates couldn't withstand the surging aftermath, and they were blown backward, some even rolling a few times.
An extremely deep pit was blasted at the very center of the castle, and a suffocating aura faintly emanated from the deep pit, oppressing the air.
Sag grit his teeth and bit off the end of his cigar. He spat out the cigar butt and growled, "My treasure!"
He hadn't had the chance to plunder the castle yet!
Lily tightened her grip on the White Thunder in her hand and asked gravely, "What do we do now?"
Sag took a deep breath and gazed at the massive pit ahead. "How long will it take to capture everyone on this island?"
"About two days."
If they were talking about the entire island, including the towns outside the city, then that would indeed take that long.
"Good!"
Crackling sounds filled the air!
Sag's entire body vibrated as he flexed his hands and squatted slightly. "Then it's two days!"
A large hand gripped the edge of the pit, and soon, a pair of horns resembling those of a Ceratosaurus emerged from the pit, followed by a head with long black hair and a beard that resembled dragon whiskers. As the person stood up fully, they revealed an extremely tall and burly physique.
In terms of height, he was only slightly taller than Moriah, but due to his excessive burliness, he appeared even more towering, like a giant that reached the sky.
His bare upper body was draped in a purple velvet fur similar to Sag's. He had a dragon scale tattoo on his left arm, an X-shaped scar on his right abdomen, and his purple shirt hung at his waist, with a Shime rope tied around it as a belt.
As the person stood up fully, the sky plunged into complete darkness at this moment.
Boom!
A purple thunderbolt exploded in the sky, making that gloomy face even more terrifying.
Not just Lily, but everyone around who saw Kaido broke into cold sweats.
As a pirate, he had been defeated seven times, challenged the Navy and the Four Emperors alone and was captured eighteen times, endured more than a thousand tortures, and was sentenced to death forty times.
Even when subjected to hanging, he would break the chains. Even when led to the guillotine, he would shatter the blade. Even when impaled by a spear, the spear would end up broken.
No one had ever been able to kill him, not even himself!
With a bounty of four billion, one hundred and ten million, occupying a seat among the 'Four Emperors', he was a top pirate, known as the 'Strongest Creature on Land, Sea, and Air' and the strongest in single combat on the vast ocean—a true pinnacle powerhouse.
'Hundred Beasts' Kaido!
"Why am I still not dead! Belch!"
Kaido propped his arms on the ground and blasted a circle of air waves, blowing away the nearby buildings that were on the verge of collapsing, forcibly clearing a vacant lot around him.
Swish!
But at this moment, a residual shadow instantly appeared in front of him.
A black flash blossomed, carrying a fist that ruthlessly imprinted on his face.
"Galaxy Strike!"
Boom!!
Like a meteor striking his face, along with the impact, Kaido's massive figure was sent flying at this moment, straight over this port city, all the way to the suburban location at the center of the island, crashing open a towering stone mountain, and only then did that massive figure heavily fall to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Sag landed on one of the stone mountains and gazed at the cloud of dust, his eyes narrowing.
Prolonged training and nutritional supplements, coupled with the constant nourishment of Life Return, had caused his physique to finally reach three times the norm some time ago. And with the protection of Haki, using three times the weight at a hundredfold speed posed no hindrance at all.
It's just that...
The dust slowly dissipated, revealing Kaido's massive figure lying there. His fingers twitched slightly, and he stood up, covering his head. He shook his head, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said, "That hurt. There are other powers trying to blow my head apart. Well, at least I'm sober now."
His aura became even heavier.
"It was such a nice drunk, too."
Kaido glared at Sag, who was on top of the stone mountain. Without even moving, he simply glared and bellowed, "Do you know how hard it is for me to get drunk, brat!"
As his bellow sounded out, Sag subconsciously crossed his arms.
Bang!
The stone mountain beneath his feet was blasted open, and along with the impact, he himself was sent flying backward.
The impact of unleashed Haki...
No, there's more!
Boom!
Several purple thunderbolts rippled through the surroundings, exploding in the air without any trace and striking the ground. Even the stone mountains around were shattered by these thunderbolts.
This was not something that could be achieved by simply exuding Haki.
A buzzing sound filled the air as a scarlet torrent burst out from Sag's eyes, clashing with the thunderbolts and forcing them back. The lightning bolts that had reached his surroundings were suppressed, and they crashed to the ground, creating pit after pit.
"So, you have it too. Hmm, you should!"
Kaido laughed, "I saw you defeat the Celestial Dragons and destroy Marlinfanto. It's normal to have the qualifications, oh lalala~!"
"Is it the substantiation of Conquer's Haki?"
Sag coldly replied, "What are you doing here, Kaido?"
"Of course, I came to find you, Sag. I heard that William was defeated by you, and I want that place too!" Kaido roared.
Sag twitched the corner of his eye, "Then you should come to my turf. What are you doing here?"
"I drank too much, and I don't like the look of this place."
Kaido scowled, "What's this about the Tias naval battle and the shipbuilding industry? This place should also be mine. I originally wanted to destroy this place first, then go find you, but now I don't need to, oh lalala~!"
He bared his teeth at Sag and took out an iron rod with his other hand. Visible to the naked eye, purple lightning bolts coiled around the rod, which was now enveloped in a dense aura.
"Little ghost, I'm very tolerant of the strong. If you join my ranks, I will welcome you! Aren't you called 'Plague'? In my ranks, I also have the 'Three Disasters'. If you join, I will make you the new billboard, the 'Four Disasters', just like that old lady!"
Big Mom's ranks had the 'Four Generals'.
"Hah!"
Sag laughed and looked directly at Kaido, "I'll give you the same offer. Why don't you join me instead? I'm currently recruiting the 'Three Appearances' and lacking a strong person. If you want to come, I will also welcome you!"
After all, he didn't choose the name 'Plague'; it was given to him by the people of the Grand Line based on his style of doing things, and it coincidentally clashed with Kaido's executives.
Was he trying to recruit him based on this alone?
He wasn't afraid of Kaido!
Kaido was also taken aback by Sag's words and laughed loudly, "Oh lalala, Sag, you're worthy..."
The iron rod, coiled with Haki, was brandished by him, creating a purple shockwave as he swung it, "of my service!"
Sag neither dodged nor evaded. He raised his fist, and the ultimate Armament Haki gathered on his fist, erupting with black flashes. He punched out with all his might, and the force of his Haki collided with the purple shockwave, creating a circle of airwaves that exploded from the center.
The airwaves blew their hair and made the fur capes on their backs flutter.
Sag picked up his cape, and as the airwaves blew it away, he took off the rings on his fingers, the jewelry on his wrists, and the black jade necklace around his neck, one by one.
Kaido wasn't in a hurry and watched him with great interest.
The previous attack had already revealed everything.
Sag understood this, and with his hundredfold speed combined with three times his weight, he concentrated all his Haki and struck with full force, targeting the secret acupuncture points, and it only served to wake this guy up from his drunkenness?
It wasn't just a matter of defensive power anymore; this guy's physique was monstrous!
Was the enhanced physique of the Zoan type this strong?
No, during the Summit War, he had seen Marco, who was also a Zoan type, and based on his senses, Marco wasn't as terrifying as Kaido.
It was purely because this guy was originally very strong.
His pure, normal state strength was insufficient to harm him.
Then...
"Huuu!"
He exhaled, and a white puff of air shot out like an arrow, striking the ground.
A hissing sound was heard as his entire body swelled up crazily, tearing through his upper body shirt. His muscles writhed wildly, becoming as thick as armor, and two muscle-condensed shoulder pads appeared on his shoulders, causing his body to balloon to over three meters tall.
"Dragon's Breathing Technique, 100%, tenfold!"
Bear!
Black flames coiled around his body, and as he stepped on the ground, a dull thud sounded out, and even the stone floor beneath his feet was stamped with a deep footprint. In an instant, Sag's body appeared in front of Kaido.
"Instant·Hundred Breaks!"
Boom, boom, boom!
His fists turned into afterimages as they rained blows on Kaido's body, creating dull thuds. The immense power and momentum of his fists caused Kaido's massive body to tremble continuously with the dull thuds.
In just an instant, Sag's fists appeared within visible range, and with a loud 'dong', a smoke ring spread from under his feet as he rose to Kaido's head, and his two hands also appeared on either side of Kaido's head, striking down fiercely.
"Regretful Fist of the Big Dipper!"
Sizzle, sizzle!
However, just as these high-speed fists were about to reach Kaido's temples, a thunderous rumbling sounded in Sag's ears, and his alarm bells went off. Subconsciously, he stomped his foot and shifted his body to the other side, his fist chopping down.
"I see it, little ghost. Thunder..."
But just as he had dodged to Kaido's side, the iron rod was suddenly swung, striking fiercely.
"Eight Trigrams!"
Boom!!
