Chapter 157 Lightning Empire
Chapter 157 Lightning Empire
Kaido, having returned to his human form, was like a humanoid Ferocious Beast.
The raised Spiked Club, coiling with Purple Lightning, further exuded a heart-palpitating Dangerous Aura.
A fierce look appeared on Kaido's rugged face.
Clearly, Nicholas's words had deeply stung him. The things he had encountered in that research institute were things he never wanted to recall in his life.
And for Kaido, the best way to vent was—Thunder Bagua!
Kaido moved suddenly, his figure disappearing into thin air.
It was a speed that was completely incompatible with his massive Body, a speed that was extreme!
Watching Kaido rushing towards him at extreme Speed.
Srii— Nicholas casually unbuttoned his Upper Body clothes, revealing the fearsome dragon-shaped tattoo on his Body and the strange Text on the dragon.
"It seems I have to hammer you down, Kaido." Nicholas said, cracking his neck.
"Hammer me down?" Kaido looked at Nicholas, his Eyes turning cold. At the same time, the Power on the Spiked Club became even stronger. He was going to use his big club to smash this Weapon who had brought him Disgrace several times.
Nicholas smiled silently. With a thought, the dragon tattoo on his Body seemed to come alive. At the same time, the strange symbol Text on the dragon also flickered. At this moment, Nicholas maximized the Ability of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
Lightning Empire!
Beneath the Dark Clouds, above the Ground.
All the Lightning in the Sky, as if responding to the summons of their King, converged from all directions towards Nicholas's Side like a pilgrimage.
And Vistad, seeing this scene, didn't say a word and directly picked up King and strode away into the distance. Shimotsuki Ushimaru, seeing this situation, also didn't say a word and had already left the center of the Battlefield in a few movements.
At this moment, countless Thunder surrounded Nicholas, forming a Lightning Domain. Buildings, Flowers, Grass, and even Lightning Creatures composed of Lightning, the vast Lightning Empire illuminated the entire Ringo, as if another silver Sun had appeared on the Ground.
"Is this the awakened Ability? But it's a Logia Type." Kaido coldly watched the constantly active Lightning around him. These Lightning could be said to have all become terrifying Weapons at this moment. Even a small Flower formed of Thunder was a terrifying Weapon capable of destroying a Town.
This was a vast ocean of Lightning. Electric Arcs surged down, Thunder like a tide, shattering everything, intensely blazing. All around was a purple haze, filled with all kinds of Thunder.
"Boom!" The Thunder was almost going to pierce people's eardrums and shatter their Souls. At this moment, this ground Lightning Domain seemed to connect Heaven and Earth, vast and boundless, like a nine-heaven Thunder river pouring down.
It seemed that even Space was constantly trembling because the Lightning Light was too blazing. Dazzling Lightning filled every inch of Space.
"Boom!" Thunder shook the world, Purple Lightning like a tide, surging and turbulent. This was a world of Lightning, capable of destroying all Things. The Aura of destruction within it made people shudder.
And Nicholas's Lightning Empire also shocked Shimotsuki Ushimaru and King.
Even from a distance, it was so Terror-inducing. It was hard to imagine what kind of calamity Kaido inside was experiencing.
"Rumble-Rumble, this is really interesting..." Facing Nicholas's Power, Kaido was going to wholeheartedly enjoy this fight.
Kaido's Eyes narrowed, and he unhesitatingly activated his Beast-Human Form, which he rarely showed in front of People, and directly covered his entire Body with Armament Haki.
Chi—! A pair of Dragon Horns grew out of his Head. His eyebrows were like a cluster of burning Flame, suspended above his vertical pupils filled with violent luster.
Pieces of blue Dragon Scales quickly emerged from Kaido's cheeks and even his exposed Body. At his more robust shoulders, a Flame ribbon reaching his Wrist was wrapped around.
At the same time, a strong and powerful Tail was constantly sweeping behind him.
Zizi—! Purple Electric Arcs darted around Kaido's Body. Clearly, Kaido, with his Defense maxed out, already had the capital to move around in Nicholas's Lightning Empire.
A cold Killing Intent erupted in Kaido's Eyes. With a momentum that came after, he swung the Spiked Club and smashed it towards Nicholas.
And in the process of Kaido's charge, he also became the Enemy of this Thunder world. Countless Lightning attacked him, beating him until his skin was torn and his Scales shattered. His Body was scorched black, bright red Blood was flowing, and he endured unimaginable Damage.
Although Kaido was severely injured, his vitality soared to the Sky. Not only was there no trace of defeat, but his fighting spirit became even higher.
"Boom!" Another Lightning Tide, incomparably blazing, buried Kaido below. It was unknown how much Lightning struck his Body. Blood splattered, and Bones crunched and cracked.
Lightning Light flickered. Even Kaido's powerful Physique was battered and broken. Many Wounds revealed Bone. The repair Speed brought by his Pervert physique was somewhat unable to keep up with the rate of damage.
This was the most disheveled time Kaido had been since his debut.
Swish! Several minutes later, the Lightning Tide receded. The ground Lightning Domain from before seemed to have never appeared. However, the huge gap on the Ground emitting high temperatures unmistakably indicated that everything just now was real.
At this time, Kaido no longer had his previous appearance. At this moment, he was lying on the Ground. Many Wounds on his Body were so deep that Bone was visible, as if he had suffered a brutal punishment.
And Nicholas, who had re-condensed his figure, came to Kaido's front, squatted down, and looked at Kaido lying unconscious on the Ground.
It seemed that the so-called Undying Body was just a joke. The Reason why the Marine captured and released Kaido, and the situation where Kaido repeatedly wreaked havoc at Marine Headquarters without dying, should be because the research value on Kaido's Body had not been completely exploited.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain the Reason why Vegapunk never went to Marine Headquarters to cause trouble again after successfully replicating artificial Devil Fruit using Kaido's Lineage Factor.
Looking at Kaido on the Ground, Nicholas waved to King in the distance, and Vistad, seeing this, also let go of his hand.
"Big Brother Kaido! Big Brother Kaido!" King, arriving at Kaido's Side, immediately went to check on Kaido's condition. Finding that he was only seriously injured and not dead, his emotions calmed down.
However, the Eyes he cast towards Nicholas were still full of vigilance. After all, the danger level of this Man in front of him was quite high.
"Nephew, why are you looking at me like that?" Nicholas was very dissatisfied with King's Eyes. No matter what, he and his father should have been considered comrades back then, although he didn't contribute much in that battle.
"Forget it, take Kaido away. Also, when he wakes up, tell him that he can do whatever he wants in Wano Country, but it's best not to affect me, understand?"
After saying this, Nicholas turned and left. His purpose for coming today had been achieved. He had a good talk with Kaido through physical means. As for what Kaido wanted to do in Wano Country, it didn't have much to do with him. What he needed to do was to ensure his own interests in Wano Country.
And watching the backs of Nicholas and Vistad leaving, King also directly transformed into a Pteranodon, grabbed Kaido on the Ground, and flew away into the distance. Before Kaido recovered, he would not go to Flower Capital, after all, no one knew what the Kurozumi Family's Weapons were planning.
And after both sides had completely left, Shimotsuki Ushimaru, looking at the Daimyo Residence that had been razed to the Ground and only himself remaining, gripped the two Swords in his hands tightly.
He knew that from this moment on, the situation in Wano Country had completely gone wild.
