One Piece: Nico Robin Collection

Chapter 18-Awakening
Rumbling--

A violent collision of domineering colors.

In the wilderness, a giant dragon bathed in thunder soared into the sky.

As soon as he opened his mouth, countless wind blades blew towards Caesar!

"Bad wind!"

"Lanjiao!"

Seeing this, Caesar suddenly raised his legs and kicked out dozens of times.

However, the wind blade came too fast, like a heavy rain, and instantly obliterated Caesar's kick.

Noticing this, Caesar spread his wings wide behind him, and his body suddenly spun. His wings cut through the air, bringing out a dazzling and huge slash.

The huge slash collided with the wind blade, and then melted into each other.

Without giving Caesar any time to breathe, a dazzling white light suddenly broke through the wind barrier and attacked Caesar at a terrifying supersonic speed!

"King Kong Dysprosium!"

"Is it the stick again..."

Caesar's eyelids twitched and he raised his fist to resist.

镝…

Yamato's whistling arrow move should be learned from this, right?

boom--

With one punch, Caesar broke the stick's energy and flew backwards to relieve the force.

Kaido is right, fighting is indeed the best catalyst for growth.

Caesar could clearly feel that his armament color became purer and purer with each urgent punch, just like forged steel.

Or perhaps it was not his armament Haki that changed, but his use of it that became more skillful and comfortable.

In the words of the chakra people in the next village, it is equivalent to the control training like climbing a tree and treading water, using less domineering energy to launch more powerful attacks.

Come and don't go indecent.

After a brief distance, Caesar suddenly raised his hand and made a shooting gesture.

Scarlet gathered, and several blood bullets shot out with domineering aura. The bullets cut through the air with a sharp whistle, and were blown up by Kaido's stick.

"You insidious little brat! Even I would feel pain if you hit me with such force!"

Kaido laughed loudly and said something sinister, but in his heart he admired Caesar's fighting style.

Strength is the biggest factor he uses to measure a person's value!
Caesar was slightly out of breath. The battle of this intensity had lasted for more than two hours. He felt that his domineering aura was almost exhausted, but Kaido still looked full of energy and did not seem tired at all.

This is also Kaido’s most difficult point - endurance!

In the original work, Kaido started out by fighting against the Nine Red Scabbards, then teamed up with Big Mom to fight against the supernovas, then fought against Luffy alone, and then fought against Yamato...

Then Luffy and Yamato teamed up, and then he defeated Luffy alone again, and finally was defeated by Gear Fifth Luffy.

He even used the flame cloud to support the ghost island in the middle of the journey. He was simply a tireless physical monster!

It is said that in the world of pirates, monsters with average physical strength can easily fight for days and nights, but that does not take into account the factor of domineering. Without considering domineering, Caesar can also beat him for days and nights.

It is not difficult to see from the original plot that even a physical monster like Kaido can only last for one night at most in such a high-intensity and domineering battle.

The current state is obviously far from reaching Kaido's limit!

Even this guy has not even shown his strongest human-beast form except for a few times of transforming into beast form, and has always maintained his human form!
“The gap is quite big…”

Caesar forced a smile.

"Ahhhhh... Of course!"

Kaido smiled upon hearing this and said, "You are already quite good. There are not many people in the world today who are qualified to fight me to this extent. If it weren't for the fact that you haven't been able to foresee the future and your Haki is still a little immature, you would be even more difficult to deal with than Jin."

"There are so many ifs."

Licking his dry lips, Caesar chuckled and said, "How does your strength compare to the other Four Emperors?"

"There is no doubt that I am the strongest!"

Kaido smiled grimly: "That old fellow Whitebeard is the only one who can threaten my life, but he is old and weak, and can't sustain a long battle. That woman Lingling is the most terrifying person with talent I have ever seen, but unfortunately she does not cherish her talent, and her strength has long been reduced."

"As for that red-haired brat... his Haki and swordsmanship are quite good, though he's still a little green. But in two years, he'll probably become the most troublesome of these people. The outcome will be the same!"

"You are so confident..."

Caesar chuckled, probably realizing the gap between himself and the other party.

And according to what Kaido said, although the four emperors are at the same level of strength, they all have their own focus. It is not like the debate among One Piece fans about the strength of the general emperor, where they have to argue to come to a conclusion.

It is meaningless to simply compare strength and weakness, and many practical factors must be considered.

For example, when Garp beat up Aokiji and Black Pirates on Beehive Island, Garp was really excited.

Then he was stabbed by Xilu again and captured alive by the Black Group. Kahei smiled.

Does this mean that Garp is not strong?
So strong, so ridiculously strong!

He started with a fist bone impact, which had the same effect as Luffy's fourth gear ultimate move, the Great Ape King Spear.

But as Master Ye said, every master has his own strengths and weaknesses. Strong men like Garp, Shanks, and Hawkeye obviously don't rely on their physical strength to make a living.

Kaido cannot compete with Kizaru in speed, nor can he compete with Whitebeard and Akainu in terms of large-scale damage, but in terms of physical strength, he can definitely be ranked in the top two among this group of generals!
"I think you've almost reached your limit..."

Kaido rushed towards Caesar: "Come on, one last blow! Don't die, kid!"

The mace wrapped in domineering color swept across the waist, and Caesar gritted his teeth and punched again!

"Great Weed Thunder Gossip!!"

Bang!
The fist and the mace collided in the air, and Caesar felt an irresistible force coming at him. He flew out uncontrollably, smashing dozens of tall trees in a row and then deeply embedded in a huge rock.

"puff…"

Caesar's lungs shook, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his throat. His bones shattered briefly, but then recovered rapidly under the action of vitality, becoming even harder and tougher!

"Ok?"

Kaido looked at Caesar in surprise: "What a tenacious vitality, worthy of being a vampire."

"do not fight!"

Caesar stood up from the pit, took out a small white flag and waved it, then turned around and flew unsteadily towards the Flower City.

Just now, my adrenaline was so high during the battle that I didn’t feel anything, and I even felt a little excited.

However, the pain just now caused his internal organs to tremble, and spread along his back to the entire cerebral cortex, which woke him up on the spot.

Kaido did not stop him when he saw this. He had already had enough fun fighting today. Caesar's dominance had reached its limit. Fighting again would just be a pure bullying game. It was meaningless. He immediately turned into a dragon and flew away.

Unlike Roger and Whitebeard, Kaido is a result-oriented hero.

Just like the battle with Oden, Kurozumi Kurasaki used underhanded tactics to cause Oden's defeat, and Kaido's victory was unfair, but no one said anything. After all, in addition to being a warrior, he is also the leader of all beasts.

However, out of respect for his opponent, he still killed Kurozumi Kurasaki, even bandaged Oden's wounds, and allowed Oden's wife to go to the prison to find him.

The meaning is very clear. My victory was unfair, so I give you a chance and we can start over again!
But you, Kozuki Oden, were stupid enough to be deceived by Orochi and jumped into the frying pan to seek death, so you can’t blame me!

As a warrior, I regret not being able to fight you fairly, but as a leader, I will not pretend and miss the fruits of victory!
Of course, it would be best if you could fight your opponent fairly and give your all to the end.

Ever since Kozuki Oden's death, only Caesar has brought him this long-extinguished sense of anticipation over the years.

And he shouldn't have to wait too long for this battle.

At most...half a year!
This is the expected time Kaido will get after this battle.

"Three months!" Flower City, General's Mansion.

Caesar inhaled the food piled up in front of him like crazy!

The blood in his body was evolving, and his domineering aura was completely consumed. He was already starving.

"In another three months, we will be able to leave!" Caesar said to Yamato while eating.

"Really?"

Yamato looked surprised, but then a little worried: "Isn't it too hasty? If I lose, I will really be killed!"

"Are you kidding? Who wants to fight him to death?"

Caesar scoffed lightly: "From the beginning to the end, all I wanted was the strength to compete with the Four Emperors. I have no interest in fighting him to the death. As long as he can't do anything to me, that's enough."

"There's no benefit in winning a fight with him, and I might even get killed if I lose. I'd have to be crazy to fight him to the death. And even if I were to, it wouldn't be at this moment."

Yamato looked expectant when he heard this: "When will that be?"

"When we set out to sea, starting from the starting point of the Grand Line, crossing the Red Earth Continent, and returning to Wano Country again!"

Caesar smiled and said, "Kaido is a monster of physical strength. Three to five months shouldn't be enough for me to fully surpass him. To be on the safe side, I think a year should be enough, but I don't plan to wait too long."

There are still three years until Luffy goes to sea.

Compared to Kozuki Oden, Luffy is the real number one succubus in the pirate world.

Caesar must bring some forces under his command and recruit a solid enough team before Luffy goes out to sea.

For example, Sky Island...

This is the base camp chosen by almost every time traveler.

But there is no way. Sky Island is located ten thousand meters above the sky, which makes it more difficult to invade than Wano Country. It also has huge gold reserves. It is undoubtedly the most suitable place to be used as a base camp.

In addition, there is Nami, a top navigator, whom Caesar also plans to recruit first.

Caesar doesn’t care about whether we are the protagonists or not. There is no reason for me to give in to you just because you, Luffy, are the protagonist.

And the Empress...

Pick her up!

I don't care about your this and that.

Caesar was not interested in the Kingdom of Women, but to be honest, he was still very interested in the Empress. After all, he was also a normal man.

With strength, good looks, and the domineering daughter country...

Although the domineering power of those girls is not that great, mostly entanglement and hardening, the value of the national domineering power is still very high.

While eating, Caesar was thinking about his plans after leaving.

Yamato held his face in his hands and watched him eat quietly.

Compared to before, Yamato's temperament is now a little more gentle than before.

The progress of their relationship made her more dependent on Caesar, but her heroic spirit remained unchanged. Once faced with a battle, she was still the female warrior who was stronger than men.

The immersion of love did not make him weak, but made him more determined and powerful!
Noticing Yamato's adorable look, Caesar smiled.

His eyes fell on Yamato's corner, and Caesar suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, right! I need your help with something!"

"Ok?"

Yamato quickly sat up straight, like a well-behaved puppy: "What's the matter?"

"I need your blood."

Caesar gently pulled Yamato over and kissed the tender little earlobe: "Maybe you have a little anemia."

"It's okay! Come on!"

Yamato's cheeks were covered with a layer of pink, but he still looked eager to try, and took the initiative to snuggle into Caesar's arms.

Caesar didn't waste any time and gently pulled off Yamato's collar, his fangs gently piercing his white shoulders and neck.

Yamato only felt a numbness in her shoulder, with a slight itchy sensation, which made her mind full of distracting thoughts and she moaned unconsciously.

Finally, after sucking in about 500cc, Caesar stopped.

500cc of blood is nothing to him, let alone a strong demon like Yamato, even for an ordinary human.

Unlike Jhin, who was seven or eight meters tall and had plenty of health, and didn't know if he would have a chance to suck the blood, so he simply sucked more than 2000cc of it, Caesar was reluctant to let this silly girl suffer.

"Why don't you ask me why I want to suck blood?"

Caesar embraced Yamato, licked the blood on his lips, and asked with a smile.

"You must have a reason for doing this!"

Yamato said innocently, "Is this all right?"

Caesar nodded: "That's about right. If it's not enough, just take some more later."

What he wanted was the bloodline factor. In his previous life, routine genetic testing could only produce a few dozen milliliters at most. 500 milliliters should be enough.

Yamato looked at Caesar with a blushing face: "Then...then do you want to suck something else?"

"Ok?"

Caesar narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and gently patted the pertness: "You've learned bad habits, Yamato!"

"Maria said you will like Caesar..."

"Why do you always listen to her?"

"Because you really like it, Caesar."

"Am I being so obvious?"

Caesar gave a dry laugh, a slightly awkward one.

I feel a little embarrassed to have the lust in my heart pointed out by such a pure little white girl like Yamato.

Caesar felt a surge of heat in his heart as his slender palm gently stroked the graceful legs that were longer than a human life.

The two are young and energetic, so they are naturally experienced in certain things.

However, just as Caesar was about to continue the in-depth communication, he suddenly felt a surge of heat in his body.

The blood surged like lava, and in an instant, Caesar's skin turned fiery red.

"Ah?"

Yamato touched Caesar's face and said, "Caesar, are you shy?"

"Do not…"

Caesar sat up straight and looked at his flushed skin in surprise.

Suddenly, a ray of fire bloomed.

A cluster of blazing flames suddenly rose behind Caesar!

The bloodline of the Lunalia tribe has been activated!

Caesar was delighted when he noticed the temperature change behind him.

The skin is getting firmer and the muscles are getting stronger.

Caesar felt all these changes clearly!
Then the next moment, his mind moved.

With a whoosh, the flame disappeared without a trace...
