Chapter 104 The Strongest Creature In The World

"Arrogant!"

Shiryu's voice was low and filled with anger. His eyes turned sharp and focused.

At the same time,

Clang!

The sharp sound of a sword being unsheathed rang out.

A dazzling scarlet light erupted from the blade of the famous sword, "Thunderstorm."

The strong wind that followed made everyone's vision blur, and Shiryu's figure vanished in an instant.

The onlookers were secretly shocked.

"Such intense killing intent, such incredible speed, and that terrifying slash! With the powerful Armament Haki, even a mountain peak would be sliced in two by that sword!"

"He's indeed the second strongest figure from the original Impel Down! His strength must be on par with a great swordsman, especially with that legendary sword..."

"That's right, Kaido won't be able to react at such close range. This fight is as good as over!"

But the next moment,

The sound of clashing metal rang out sharply.

Kaido remained in the same stance, his expression calm and indifferent.

Dense black dragon scales appeared on his shoulders and chest, absorbing the impact of Shiryu's attack.

The pirates' eyes widened in disbelief.

"He didn't dodge or block the attack; he just used his body to absorb it? What an extraordinary physique!"

"Shiryu's sword could split the sea and shatter mountains. How is it that Kaido isn't even moving? This can't be real, can it?"

"Look! Those dragon scales on him!"

"Dragon form? It seems different from before..."

"The Evil King" Pizarro, "Big Barrel" Vasco Shot, and "Moonlight Hunter" Catarina, among others, narrowed their eyes, and felt a chill run down their spine.

Bullet, initially nonchalant, suddenly narrowed his eyes and examined the scene closely.

"I see, so this is your trump card? This is why you dare to challenge us?"

"I didn't expect this guy to grow stronger after leaving, or was he holding back in the previous battle?"

Compared to the others, Shiryu, who was directly involved, looked extremely pale.

Despite his all-out attack, he couldn't break through Kaido's defense. This harsh reality stirred a storm of panic in his heart, causing his hand to tremble slightly from the strain.

His knuckles turned white from gripping his weapon so tightly.

"You... you..."

Kaido turned his head, glanced at the sharp blade still resting on his shoulder, then at the close-up Shiryu. His tone was unusually calm.

"Your speed is impressive, and your timing is spot on. But you still need to work on your strength and Haki."

Before Shiryu could react,

Boom!

There was an explosion, and Shiryu's entire body exploded into a cloud of blood. He flew like a meteor, instantly propelled a thousand meters away!

Everyone looked around in shock.

A massive gash appeared from the port to the town on the island.

The violent shockwave from the punch had reduced hundreds of buildings to ruins.

"Shiryu was defeated with a single punch? The gap in strength is that huge? This is absurd!"

"With that speed and strength, how can he be injured? He's like a monster!"

"Was he pretending before?"

The impact of that punch was so overwhelming that everyone present, including Bullet and Aokiji, couldn't help but gasp. Their eyes were filled with an indescribable fear.

Seeing this, the former Marine Admiral could no longer keep his calm. His expression changed drastically.

This powerful and domineering punch reminded him of one name——

Marine Hero, Garp!

"Damn it, has his strength reached this level?"

"If that's the case, Kaido alone might need the combined force of three Admirals!"

"Besides Bullet and the others, to fully defeat the Dragon Pirates, we might need to call on Garp, Sengoku, and the others..."

"This is serious. This information needs to be reported to Naval Headquarters immediately!"

Aokiji thought to himself, his expression growing more and more grim.

The port fell into a stunned silence.

"What? Are you just going to watch?"

Kaido clenched his fists and scanned the crowd. To him, Shiryu's previous attack was as insignificant as a mosquito bite—utterly worthless.

Since integrating the Deathwing bloodline, the attributes of Kaido's body had reached an extraordinarily exaggerated level, far surpassing his original form.

But upon reflection, this wasn't surprising.

Kaido had developed the blue dragon form of the Phantom Beast species to its ultimate level. Even without considering his Devil Fruit abilities, Kaido's qualifications and talents were exceptional.

Now, combined with the Deathwing bloodline—an S-rank reward from the system, a power equivalent to a demigod in its original world of Azeroth—his strength in dragon form was comparable to the peak levels of Whitebeard, Roger, and Garp!

"Very strong, indeed. It seems the pain I endured was worth it."

"However, I'm eager to see the ultimate power that could be called the destroyer of the world..."

With that thought, Kaido's eyes gleamed, and his already imposing body began to expand rapidly.

The wind and clouds shifted dramatically, lightning flashed, and thunder roared.

A massive shadow suddenly covered the entire port.

The sky was thick with clouds, and a terrifying giant beast loomed within them.

Kaido's body grew to about three thousand meters in length, covered in a thick, armored shell of red and black dragon scales. His claws, nearly a hundred meters long, could easily slice through a warship with a single swipe.

His chest and abdomen glowed with a deep, dark red light, as though endless lava surged within him.

Compared to Kaido's original elegant and mysterious oriental dragon form, this new form exuded more Haki and ferocity.

The enormous dragon wings behind him flapped, creating a fierce hurricane that swept across the island.

On the streets, trees were uprooted, mud was scattered, and buildings twisted and deformed, turning into debris that flew through the air.

Many pirates were lifted off their feet by the powerful winds, screaming as they were tossed around.

The giant dragon's eyes, filled with a cold, self-assured light, surveyed the chaos below.

The overwhelming Longwei, combined with Conqueror's Haki, poured down upon them with crushing force!

Under this immense pressure,

Boom!

Pirates with bounties over 100 million felt their heads pounding, losing consciousness, foaming at the mouth, and collapsing to the ground.

Even the "The Evil King" Pizarro, "Big Barrel" Vasco Shot, "Moonlight Hunter" Catarina, and others found their vision darkening and their legs giving way.

They fell to their knees in terror!

Several of them screamed in horror.

"This is…"

"Conqueror's Haki?!"

The sheer force of his presence rendered everyone immobile.

Such a phenomenon was unprecedented!

This invisible pressure even affected the very fabric of reality.

Countless cracks appeared in the hardened port ground, spreading out in all directions.

The calm sea began to churn, creating towering waves.

Moments later, the dragon's body was engulfed in endless flames.

The intense heat made it nearly impossible to breathe, and it felt as though their entire bodies were burning.

The temperature soared.

The once blue sky turned into a sea of fire.

The entire world seemed to be bathed in red!

As they looked up at the sea of fire,

The remaining people on Beehive Island, struggling to hold their ground, were gripped with fear.

Under this unprecedented pressure, they had lost all will to fight.

Overwhelmed by the sense of impending doom, they wanted to flee immediately.

But their legs felt leaden, making even the act of moving a tremendous effort.

Bullet's breath hitched, and he staggered back a few steps.

He looked up at the sky, his body trembling.

"The strongest creature in the world..."

At that moment, he felt fear for the first time in a long time.
