Chapter 66 Fire Dragon Torch (5.7K)

It took less than ten minutes, just two minutes passed. After the two of them had caught their breath, they stood up at the same time in tacit understanding.

After looking at each other, they rushed towards each other.

“Ouch!!!”

Kaido roared and swung out the mace in his hand, and Caesar swung his sword to block.

The metal sound vibrated, the iron rod and the long sword collided through the air, and thunder exploded in the air.

"Jundali·Long Shengjun!"

woohoo-

The sound of sticks whistling was heard, and the dense shadows of sticks were waving like the Thousand-Armed Buddha, but this speed did not hurt Caesar at all.

Every attack was accurately blocked by Caesar, or dodged and counterattacked.

The excitement in Kaido's eyes became even stronger. It was a joy that he had not felt since the death of Kozuki Oden. It was the ecstasy of having an opponent who could fight with him with all his strength!
Caesar's fighting spirit became stronger and stronger, and he became more and more excited as the battle went on.

To put it simply, this battle gave him confidence!
In half a year, he went from being a small minion worth tens of millions to a level where Kaido needs to fight with all his strength.

At this moment, Caesar finally felt that he was in control of his own destiny!
"Bloodthirsty bat plague!"

The moment Kaido's stick disappeared, Caesar suddenly raised his hand and pointed.

A scarlet vortex gathered behind him, and countless blood-red bats rushed towards Kaido. Among them were some black bats covered with armed color domineering. Each one was the size of a palm, and shot towards Kaido at a speed far exceeding that of a bullet!
"Don't use such petty tricks to show off!"

boom--

Kaido snorted coldly, and swept out with his stick again, smashing the bat shadows in the sky!

“Thunder—gossip!”

"Thunder... gossip!"

"Thunder...Ola!"

Kaido swung the mace wildly, and he didn't even shout out the name of his moves. Although Caesar didn't understand why this guy had to shout every time, maybe it was to make him more imposing?

The blue dragon man was like a raging beast, swinging his stick wildly at Caesar.

"That won't do, boy!"

"I admit that your strength has reached this level, but that's not enough! Alas..."

laugh--

The sharp corner of the mace scratched the cloth on Caesar's shoulder, leaving a streak of scarlet.

The blood flowed slowly and soon soaked Caesar's clothes.

"Why don't you recover? Your blood reserves should be quite sufficient, right?"

Kaido pointed his mace at Caesar and spoke in a dissatisfied tone.

"I just want to see how strong I am..."

Caesar breathed a sigh of relief. His adrenaline was surging, and he felt only a slight burning pain from the wound, but no obvious discomfort.

"And wouldn't that be like cheating? For this battle..."

"Cheating? Ouch!"

Kaido laughed when he heard this, but then he suddenly fell silent and stared at Caesar with a fierce face.

"Very good...Very good, Caesar! I couldn't be more satisfied with you as my son-in-law. But what you want to say now is still a long way off, right?"

"distant?"

"Of course, it could be just one step away..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaido kicked his feet suddenly, and his huge body shot towards Caesar. He raised the Eight Rings above his head and dropped them heavily!
The sharp force of the stick was completely different from before, revealing an unconcealable murderous intent!
clang--

Caesar blocked again, using the force to flip nimbly, but was suddenly kicked by Kaido and hit in the chest.

"啕——"

Caesar retched and flew backward like a cannonball, falling heavily to the ground.

"If you don't have the goal of killing your opponent and are not prepared to risk your life, you won't be able to stand until the end, just like this!"

The mace fell from above his head again, and Caesar flashed and distanced himself.

There was a loud bang and gravel flew everywhere.

Caesar slightly turned his head to avoid a piece of gravel that was heading straight for his face, then he made a gesture to draw his sword, and suddenly a black slash flew in front of Kaido.

With the mace held horizontally in front of him, Kaido was pushed by the slash, leaving two several-meter-long marks under his feet, and then his arm suddenly knocked the slash away!
"Challenging yourself and risking your life are two different things! Guys like you probably already had a plan for retreat before coming here, right?"

"I'm not here to die!"

Caesar's face darkened: "If you can't beat me, can't you just run away?"

"Where can you run to?"

Kaido sneered and continued to attack Caesar.

"On the sea? On the Sky Island? I know you want to rule this sea, right? Are you really ready to face this sea? Are you ready to become the enemy of the world?"

"A naive kid like you who doesn't know what war is, and what death is!"

Bang!
Caesar swung his fist, and a shock wave knocked Kaido back.

"I know more than you do!"

"Shameless talk!"

Kaido swung his mace: "King Kong Dysprosium!"

Caesar raised his hand slightly, and a scarlet color appeared out of thin air, turning into a thin barrier that offset the oncoming stick energy.

"You are the one who boasts! I learned these things in school. Have you ever read a book?"

"Why should I read that stuff? I've experienced it myself!"

"What's the point? You're just a pawn in the hands of the higher-ups. What can you really understand if you're in the middle of it? Did being a veteran and finding a job give you confidence, idiot?"

Kaido was stunned when he heard this.

"There is a flaw!"

Caesar jumped up and swung his sword, hitting Kaido in the chest and sending him flying!

The huge body hit the ground with a dull thud.

“It’s bleeding…”

Kaido touched the wound on his chest and looked at Caesar in shock: "I was even insulted with such harsh words!"

"..."

Caesar was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say. After all, Kaido was just a victim of the war. These words were somewhat touching.

“I’m not angry…”

Kaido was silent for a moment, then grinned, "You are my son after all!"

"You're obviously super pissed!"

Caesar's face turned dark. This bastard couldn't win the argument and started to bring up his identity!
This guy who usually doesn't even care about his daughter, now knows how to take advantage of his status?

"No way to compete! Just because you're a pawn for a while doesn't mean you'll be a pawn forever!"

Kaido stood up and rushed towards Caesar, and his mace, wrapped in the domineering thunder, hit Caesar hard.

"I've already prepared for this world! A grand war that will sweep everything away!"

"Those who cannot see themselves clearly will always be controlled by others!"

Caesar held the knife in both hands and rushed forward to fight Kaido head-on!
Thunder exploded, and Caesar's sword was like a hunting python, suppressing Bazhaijie!
"Rising my life... I really believed the nonsense you reckless people tell me. Those who don't care about their own lives can only be called fools! Daring to sacrifice for ideals and what you cherish is true courage, right?"

Caesar sneered, and infinite power seemed to surge in his body. He took a step forward, bent his body, and chopped Kaido away with a knife!

"I've heard a very interesting saying: A true warrior dares to face the bleakness of life and dares to look directly at the bloodshed! Father-in-law, are you not lost on the path to your ideals?"

boom--

The huge body smashed a rock wall into pieces. Kaido shook his head and sat up from the rubble, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, and then quickly became fierce again.

"You kid...are you questioning me?"

Kaido straightened up, anger lurking in his voice.

"Don't question me!"

“…Are you crazy?”

"The most important thing for the younger generation is to obediently accept the fate arranged by the elders, boy!"

A green dragon hundreds of meters long rose into the sky, and a scorching dragon breath suddenly burst out. Caesar dodged the dragon breath and rushed towards the dragon.

"What are you talking about? Elders should just accept their fate of being surpassed by their juniors, father-in-law!"

Clang——

The long sword collided with the dragon's kiss, and fire brewed in Kaido's mouth again, intending to hit Caesar in the face.

Caesar stepped on the air, changed direction out of the blue, and kicked the dragon hard on the chin!
Bang!
The scorching heat exploded in Kaido's mouth before it could be released. Kaido was so shocked by the explosion that his eyes rolled back and he almost fainted.

"Damn little monkey!"

"It's a bat!"

Kaido shook his head and turned his gaze.

"Huh? What about people?"

"it's here!"

Caesar's voice came from above his head. Kaido looked up with his huge dragon eyes and found that this guy had actually run to above his head without him knowing when. He held the dragon horns in both hands and looked at him with a smug look on his face.

"Asshole! You actually ran over my head and acted like a wild beast!"

"Excuse me, how about giving you a gift so you don't get angry anymore?"

Seeing Caesar take out a saddle from behind him, Kaido shook his head violently and turned back into human-beast form.

"You're such a good kid, I was almost shaken by you."

Kaido sneered, "But the farce ends here! After all, strength is supreme in this sea!"

"That's true, but if that were all, you wouldn't be hiding in a small place like Wano Country right now."

Caesar said calmly, "At least with your own strength, you can't change the direction of this world, right? You clearly long for change, but you are trapped by reality and resort to violence to comfort yourself?"

The air suddenly became still, and Kaido was silent for a while.

After a long while, he looked at Caesar with a hint of surprise, and he didn't seem embarrassed at having his secrets exposed.

"You seem to know quite a bit, and with your own insights and experience, even the royal families wouldn't be able to provide such training to their descendants!"

"Oh, Observation Haki!"

"You fart!!!"

Kaido's face darkened, but his curiosity overwhelmed his unhappiness at hiding the secret from Caesar.

"So? Is there anything wrong with what I did?"

Caesar was speechless: "You are really humble."

"Of course, you're a smart person. Although I like to scheme, I'm not good at these kinds of complicated things. It's just that those stupid guys aren't very smart either, so I have to spend more time thinking about it."

Kaido still did not forget to recruit Caesar: "If you stay here peacefully, I can even hand over the control of the Beasts Pirates to you, as long as you can help me achieve my goal - to bring those superior guys to the battlefield on an equal footing!"

"Father-in-law, you are so confused. If I defeat you, all the beasts will be mine!"

Caesar chuckled. "How about you join me? I can promise you that within ten years at most, I will be able to bring those high-handed Celestial Dragons down from their pedestals!" "Just you?"

"You definitely can't do it on your own anyway, so why not give it a try?"

"Damn kid, I wanted to sew your mouth shut from the first time I saw you..."

Kaido seemed to be angry and lashed at Caesar with a stick: "You disobedient brat, you better beat him into submission first!"

"Ah... What a violent battle!"

The Beasts Pirates climbed to the edge of the battlefield and looked at the two people fighting in the distance. Quinn looked at Jin in amazement.

"You've actually grown to this point? I didn't expect you to have the talent to be a teacher!"

"none of my business."

Jin said calmly, "If it were you, even if you taught for your entire life, you would only reach that level."

Quinn was furious: "Asshole, what did you say?"

"Please be quiet for a moment, both of you..."

Maria said helplessly, "Now is not the time to bicker."

Runti looked at everyone and said, "If Caesar loses, will he join us completely?"

Everyone was silent for a while.

Judging from the current battle situation, it is hard to say who will win or lose.

Even King, who firmly believed that Kaido would win, felt a little uncertain until now.

"Sister."

"What's wrong, Xiao Pei?"

"Caesar should be leaving."

Wow! Warriors!

As Page Wan finished speaking, everyone looked at him with admiration.

"Why? That idiot? Wasn't he fine at the party before?"

Runti puffed up her little face, grabbed Peggy Wan's collar and swung it around, her tone full of annoyance.

Sasaki was silent.

No, you guys also had a party?
when?
I do not know how?
isolated!

Is this isolation?
This is definitely isolating!
"Hey, if I were you, I'd keep a close eye on that big guy."

Quinn approached Runti in a sly manner and quietly pointed at the big bear in the distance: "That guy might be Caesar's backup!"

"It's so annoying. If that guy wants to leave, just let him go!"

"But you obviously care about him, don't you?"

"Who cares about him? Fatty! Idiot! Baldy! Fatty!"

Big Bear: "..."

This girl's personality is similar to Bonnie's.

It looks like this, should we keep Bonnie away from Caesar from now on?
His eyes were fixed on Caesar. The two men in the field seemed like crazy. The flash of swords and sword energy were accompanied by blood. The blue dragon soared and the black shadows flickered.

"Roaring Thunder Gossip!!"

"An upgraded version of Thunder Bagua..."

Looking at Kaido's red eyes and his rapidly expanding muscles, Caesar's heart trembled.

This state should be the form of the Wine Dragon Bagua, right?

Stronger and faster than the human-beast form!

But this guy obviously didn't drink...

No, maybe it’s not related!

A terrifying force hit Caesar, who was holding a knife in both hands, and was knocked far away by a stick.

Caesar calmly observed Kaido's condition. He was not Luffy and had elementalized himself, so many of Kaido's moves had no effect on him, such as the Bad Wind move that could not be added with domineering power.

Therefore, if you want to have any effect on him, you must use real domineering attacks.

Relatively speaking, he has a greater advantage than Kaido.

His strength is not weaker than his opponent, but he is more agile than his opponent. In addition, Kaido can only add a large amount of domineering power to his mace, but he only needs to add a small amount of domineering power to the blood bullet to cause effective damage to Kaido.

However, because both of them can foresee the future, this trick has little effect on Kaido. And with his speed, as long as he doesn't make the same mistakes as before, Kaido's attack will not pose a substantial threat to him.

I think this is also the reason why it is so difficult to distinguish the winner among the top fighters...

"Ahhhhhhhh...what's wrong, kid?!"

"It's not fun! It's not fun at all!"

Kaido laughed loudly and swung his stick at Caesar, his eyes full of bloodthirsty fighting spirit.

The huge force came from his hands again and again, causing Caesar to feel a slight pain in the palm of his hand.

"Where's your beast form? Come and see it! It's the legendary vampire!"

"I'm already in beast form!"

"Stop lying! The vampire fruit is the bat fruit, right?"

"The Blue Dragon Fruit or the Fish-Fish Fruit! Can you swim in the sea?"

Caesar's face turned dark. His changes in beast form were red pupils, pointed ears and fangs, and sharp nails that could be freely retracted. The beast form only had an extra pair of wings.

Kaido: "Garbage Fruit!"

Caesar: “???”

Aren't you the most domineering bastard?!
After thinking about it, Caesar sneered: "Trash Kaido, he can't even awaken!"

"..."

Kaido was silent for a moment: "Don't hurt each other with words during a battle. It's very uncultured."

Caesar was furious: "You provoked me first, you bastard! And where do you get your manners from?!"

"No Road Race!"

Kaido roared, leaped high into the air, and then dropped from the sky: "Great Power, Thunderous Bagua!"

"Huh, such a long pre-roll? Let me show you what shady dealings are!"

Caesar sneered, and a deep darkness, centered on him, quickly spread out in all directions.

A faint blood mist filled the air, and Kaido felt his eyes go dark. He could no longer receive any light from the outside world, and his observation Haki suddenly lost its effect.

In the darkness, the only thing visible was Caesar's blood-red eyes flashing with a faint red light!
"Hey! This ability is too foul, isn't it?"

Kaido panicked for a rare moment. If it were someone else, he wouldn't be afraid, but Caesar could really hurt him!
"I told you it was a shady deal..."

Caesar's chuckle echoed in the darkness. The deep darkness even blocked out the sounds from the outside world!
If you look from the outside at this time, the top of the giant skull of Onigashima seems to be covered with a small black round hat, which looks inexplicably funny.

laugh--

A red light flashed, and Kaido dodged violently, but his arm was still scratched and left a bloody mark.

Now he could only judge Caesar's movements based on his scarlet eyes.

However, the next second, something even more disgusting happened - Caesar actually closed his eyes!
"Come on, now that no one can see, let's have a fair fight!"

"Fuck your fairness!"

Kaido was furious, "What a shameless boy! I've even been banned from using Observation Haki, and you want me to compete with bats in sound positioning?"
"Bad wind!"

"it's useless!"

Dozens of wind blades broke through the darkness, but only caused the surrounding blood mist to sway slightly, and the darkness showed no sign of dissipating.

The next moment, a giant green dragon suddenly rose from the ground, broke through the darkness, and a dazzling fire spewed out from the dragon's mouth.

"Dragon Breath!"

boom--

The terrifying dragon breath instantly flattened the darkness and swept in all directions.

"Wow!!"

"Hey, hey, hey, are you trying to kill us all? Don't fly so fast, you bastard!"

In the distance, people were thrown to the ground and ran towards a farther place in panic.

Suddenly, at the moment when the darkness was swept away, a flash of black light swept across from bottom to top at a high speed, bringing up a handful of blood in front of Kaido's chest!

"Stinky brat!"

Kaido roared, transformed back into his human-beast form, and rushed towards Caesar with a stick.

"Shadow!"

Caesar raised his hand and darkness rose again!
"Dragon Breath!"

boom--

Another terrifying dragon breath swept over, and the darkness dissipated.

Then, the familiar black slash...

"Damn kid..."

Blood splattered, Kaido shrank back into his human-beast form, coughed up blood, and veins bulged on his forehead.

Then, the familiar voice that made his blood pressure soar rang out again.

"Shadow!"

"Is it never going to end? You bastard! Tornado!!"

He transformed into a dragon again, and with a swing of his tail, dozens of hurricane tornadoes spread across the sky and earth!
Although the blood mist that obscured the vision was blown away, the deep darkness could not be cleared away.

This darkness is completely invisible and pitch black, and only attacks like dragon breath that bring light can illuminate it.

"Dragon... Dragon Breath—"

Kaido dry-heaved. Releasing dragon breath so frequently not only drained his physical strength, but also made his throat uncomfortable.

There was a loud retching sound, and the stench of alcohol suddenly overwhelmed the whole place.

Caesar shrank his head: "Ugh, how disgusting!"

"You're the one who's disgusting, you bastard!"

Veins bulged on the blue dragon's head, and it was about to curse, but the darkness below suddenly dissipated, and Caesar stood upright on the ground, looking at it.

"Ah la la la la... I get it, kid!"

Kaido was stunned for a moment, and then he burst into laughter, his laughter resounding through the world.

Suddenly, a breath of blazing dragon's breath burned from his mouth, instantly drying the blood at the corners of his mouth, and quickly swirled around Kaido's entire body!

"You were waiting for this move, right? You definitely...saw it, right?!"

The dragon's body, which was originally hundreds of meters long, expanded rapidly as if it was growing in flames. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a terrifying dragon that was a thousand meters long and was surrounded by red flames!
"Fire Dragon Torch!!!"
