The coastline of Wanokuni.

"Hold your ground! Don't pursue! Hold your ground!" Shutenmaru shouted, cleaving a cannonball in half with his sword.

Boom!

The cannonball was split into two sections and immediately exploded.

"Hoo... hoo..." Shutenmaru gasped for breath, squinting his eyes. "Truly worthy of the Beasts Pirates, this is getting troublesome..."

Here, a fierce battle was raging!

The Kaido Pirates relentlessly bombarded the coastline of Wanokuni while desperately trying to land.

Wanokuni's geographical environment made it easy to defend but difficult to attack. However, the Beasts Pirates, who had been in an alliance with Wanokuni for over a decade, finally found a decent angle of attack.

A brutal landing battle began directly!

Some of Wanokuni's experts had already engaged in combat with the Kaido Pirates, including both skilled fighters and ordinary soldiers.

Yokozuna Kawamatsu fought against Jack the Drought with a group of people, while Shutenmaru continuously supported various fronts to prevent the enemy from breaking through.

Normally, landing battles were extremely difficult to win. Even with the element of surprise, along with equipment and numerical advantages, it was almost impossible to achieve a favorable exchange ratio.

But this war was different.

Wanokuni did not have defensive weapons like cannons, although Kaido's factory had some. However, the people of Wanokuni did not know how to use them!

So they could only endure the bombardment from the Kaido Pirates and rely on their geographical advantage to gradually erode the landing forces.

It could be said that both sides were fighting under relatively balanced conditions.

It was a battle of pure strength!

Fortunately, Wanokuni had the capital to form an alliance with Kaido, so they had some skilled fighters, albeit not many.

They could barely hold this ground.

R...

"Is Zaraki Kenpachi alright...?" Shutenmaru gritted his teeth.

That man was Kaido!

One of the Four Emperors, known as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air, Kaido!

"Stop thinking about it, focus on our own battle!" Shutenmaru shook his head and continued to swing his sword, slashing at the pirates.

Despite the booming artillery fire, both Shutenmaru and Yokozuna Kawamatsu, as well as their opponents Jack the Drought and the Scorching Calamity...

They all had a portion of their attention focused on a distant location.

There, from time to time, came a sound even louder than the cannon fire!

The clouds in the sky seemed to have been slashed multiple times, with countless cracks.

That was the battlefield between Kaido and Zaraki Kenpachi!

"Who will win in the end?"

If it were before, Jack and the other pirates wouldn't worry about such things.

But now...

They had been fighting for a long time!

Could that man called Zaraki Kenpachi really fight against us Four Emperors like this?

The situation seemed extremely tense!

Suddenly...

The pupils of the Scorching Calamity and Ember Jizo contracted. Yokozuna Kawamatsu and Jack the Drought, who were locked in combat, also paused. Shutenmaru instinctively looked towards the rear.

Crack!

A loud sound, a crack, rapidly extended!

The crack was enormous, like the cracks after an earthquake, stretching all the way from the distance to the coastline.

"This is..."

Kozuki Hiyori, who was in command, was momentarily stunned, then instantly revealed a hint of joy.

Jack and the Scorching Calamity's faces, which were originally firm, changed.

This was a sword scar!

And everyone knew that Kaido used a club, not a sword, along with his Devil Fruit ability.

Fte...

He doesn't use a sword!

And at the location that everyone was concerned about.

Tick-tock ▶ Tick-tock, tick-tock

Crimson blood keeps flowing

A sharp corner lies on the ground, ignored by everyone

"Hoo... hoo..." Kaido has already transformed into human form, supporting himself with his hands, gasping for breath

The wound on his chest, from top to bottom, is deep enough to see the bones, and he can even faintly see the injured internal organs!

Fresh blood keeps flowing from the wound

"It's surprising, a tough guy indeed," Zaraki Kenpachi chuckles, carrying his sword

Then, he casually carries his sword and turns to leave

Kaido's pupils shrink, forcefully supporting himself on the ground, looking up: "Wait for me..."

"What?" Zaraki Kenpachi carries his sword, turning his head discontentedly

"Where are you going..." Kaido grits his teeth, his voice suppressed as if it's coming from his abdomen

"Going back, I've had enough," Zaraki Kenpachi calmly says

Before Zaraki Kenpachi finishes speaking, Kaido suddenly props himself up on the ground, raising his body

"What are you thinking?!"

An angry voice shouts from his mouth, causing the blood to burst and stain the ground

"Why won't you give me the final blow!"

"You've won!"

The victory is decided!

Kaido can't even stand now, his Devil Fruit transformation completely undone, and even moving is difficult

While the other party also has some injuries, compared to Kaido himself, it's almost as if they haven't been injured at all

The victory has already been determined!

"Sorry." Zaraki Kenpachi calmly looks at Kaido. "I have no interest in someone who can no longer fight."

"I also have no obligation to give you the final strike."

"What are you joking about!" Kaido's face is full of anger, his whole person resembling a mad demon

Ignoring the continuously bleeding wound, he shouts, "Are you taking me for a fool? Just kill me!"

Kaido has not never lost before

He has been captured by the Naval Headquarters more than once, defeated by other Four Emperors

But even when subjected to hanging, he would break the chains; even when taken to the guillotine, he would shatter the blade; even when stabbed by a spear, it would end with the spear breaking...

He has survived until now not by relying on others showing mercy!

But by relying on his formidable strength that can break free even when captured by the Naval Headquarters!

Absolutely not by surviving like this... being let go by others!

However, in the next second, a large hand suddenly grabs Kaido and lifts him up

Then, he meets a pair of calm and deep eyes

"Don't babble here." Zaraki Kenpachi looks down at that demonic face from a higher position. "If you also enjoy fighting, don't clamor for others to kill you."

"Don't think of dying just because you lost. Only when you die can you truly lose!"

"If you lose and haven't died, it can only mean you're lucky."

"At a time like this, you only need to think about how to survive."

Kaido stands there dumbfounded. "What are you saying..."

"Stay alive, and then think about how to kill the person who didn't kill you." Zaraki Kenpachi calmly says, then reveals a smile

"I didn't hold back when I fought you. It's your luck that you're not dead."

"Stay alive."

Kaido is stunned, looking at the eyes of the man in front of him, listening to his words

"Stay alive, and then come to kill me again."

Silence...

A long silence...

Zaraki Kenpachi casually releases his grip, carries his sword, and walks away
