Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

Rocks unleashed his Armor Haki, channeling it into a powerful, energy-enhanced Cero.

The sudden burst of power deflected Kaido's spiked club...

"Elbaf Spear - Mighty Kingdom!"

The energy converged in his right arm and transformed into a giant demonic arm.

Rocks gripped the Seven Star Sword and unleashed a spiral shockwave with one hand at close range. The short-range burst possessed formidable power and should not be underestimated!

"Hot breath!"

Kaido still didn't dodge, using his Flowing Armament Haki for defense, and opened his mouth to unleash a blast of hot breath at Rocks in front of him!

'Boom! Boom!!'

Two ear-splitting booms erupted!

Kaido was sent flying by Rocks' sword strike, the spiraling shockwave forcing him to fly backward uncontrollably, leaving numerous cuts and scratches on his body...

Rocks took the brunt of the explosive heatwave head-on, his body was scorched, he coughed up blood again, and was sent flying backward...

"continue!"

Lox laughed loudly and twisted his body forward.

He tore open space with his left hand, allowing his body to disappear into it, and reappeared behind Kaido, who was flying backward.

The initial backward momentum turned into a forward momentum...

"Double Bone Crushing Strike!"

The Seven Star Sword was stored inside his body.

Lox took a deep breath, his chest bulging.

The flow of oxygen throughout the body revitalizes bodily functions. A breath of white air is exhaled from the mouth, followed by a backward tilt of the body and a powerful, heavy slam of the fists down!

"This ability..."

A red glint flashed in Kaido's eyes as he sensed an attack coming from behind.

However, he was unable to dodge because the spiral shockwave was pressing against his body.

The only way is to cover your entire body with Armament Haki and let the flow of Haki become an invisible defense!

'Boom!'

Rocks slammed his fists down.

The first thing it clashed with was Kaido's flowing Armament Haki, but it instantly defeated him.

Then, he slammed both fists into Kaido's back...

Amidst the deafening roar that shook the island.

Kaido felt as if he had been struck heavily on the back by two iron hammers, and even his thick Armor Haki couldn't withstand it.

The immense power was like a volcanic eruption, exploding and bombarding in an instant!

'Snap!'

The sound of bones breaking rang out; Kaido's bones shattered, his internal organs were struck by a powerful force, and blood gushed from his mouth...

The body changed from flying backwards to flying forwards, transforming into a powerful cannonball that pierced through the air.

It triggered a sonic boom, destroying everything in its path...

Finally, it was blasted out of Island No. 22, passing through two mangroves and leaving a hole that was clear from front to back, before being blocked by a third mangrove.

The impact sent the mangrove tree swaying precariously, creating a huge dent, and Kaido was embedded in the center of the crater...

"Phantom Flash!"

Rocks tore open space with his left hand, and the dark rift connected to Kaido, who was embedded in the red tree.

With a flick of his right hand, he unleashed several phantom flashes towards the crack...

Boom boom boom!

Dark green light exploded on the mangroves, triggering several terrifying explosions.

The mangroves were blasted and broken by the violent explosion.

Kaido, who was embedded in the blast, was also thrown away by the explosion and crashed diagonally to the ground, creating another crater...

"cough……"

Inside the pit, Kaido coughed up blood and got up from the ground.

At this moment, two fist marks appeared on his back, and there were many charred areas on his body, making him look extremely disheveled...

'Boom!'

Kaido unleashed his Conqueror's Haki, sweeping through the surrounding space and causing chaos.

This overwhelming aura of domineering power was like an enraged beast baring its fangs, instilling fear and dread in all who were affected...

'Boom!'

Another surge of Conqueror's Haki erupted from above, clashing and exchanging blows with Kaido's Conqueror's Haki!

'Boom!'

In mid-air, the purplish-black lightning crackled once more, and the swirling air currents caused strange phenomena to appear in the clouds, which spun wildly like a vortex...

"Angry? This is nothing, Kaido!"

Rocks emerged from the spatial rift, his Conqueror's Haki pressing down.

As he finished speaking, an even more powerful wave of Conqueror's Haki crashed down, overwhelming and crushing Kaido's Conqueror's Haki before landing on Kaido.

This momentarily halted Kaido's surging momentum, as if he had been overwhelmed by Rocks...

"You've suppressed my Conqueror's Haki; your aura is almost catching up to that Shanks guy's..."

Kaido's Conqueror's Haki had no effect on him. He stared at Rocks in mid-air and let out a loud laugh that echoed across the island!

'Boom! Boom!'

He walked out of the pit carrying a spiked club, each step he took causing the ground to tremble.

Kaido stared directly at Rocks, who was looking down at him, and grinned, "You're worthy of my full strength, Blackwing Demon!"

'Click click...'

Kaido's muscles twitched, forcefully pushing the broken, dislocated bones back into place.

The wounds on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye...

This is the incredible regenerative power of an animal-type awakened being!

"Then let's continue, the battle has only just begun!"

Kaido moved, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he charged toward Rocks.

It's faster than before!

This monstrous size combined with such incredible speed is enough to demonstrate how terrifying Kaido is...

'Boom!'

The spiked club crashed down on Rocks with overwhelming force, unleashing a torrent of powerful lightning and devastating destructive energy, accompanied by deafening crackling sounds...

Thunderous Eight Trigrams!

"Afraid you won't succeed?"

Rocks fearlessly charged forward!

'Boom!!'

The spiked club and the Seven Star Sword clashed again, and with a resounding crash, the two were briefly locked in a stalemate...

Rocks' left hand mutated, and he slammed his fist down: "A serious punch!"

'Boom! '

The power of this punch was neutralized by Kaido's flowing Armament Haki, and the penetrating force was blocked, producing a muffled thud...

"The Three Worlds Descend - Naraku!"

After blocking a punch, Kaido arrived above Rocks on a cloud of flames, his right hand spinning his spiked club.

Conqueror's Haki swirled around it, drawing out even more dazzling bolts of lightning...

"Conqueror's Haki lingers..."

Rocks sensed intense danger from Kaido's attack, and his pupils contracted sharply...

This is the overwhelming aura of Conqueror's Haki.

Such an attack cannot be countered without a full-force strike, and at this moment, Rocks simply lacked the power to unleash a truly powerful attack...

Then avoid it!

'Boom!'

The moment this thought crossed his mind, a surge of Conqueror's Haki assaulted Rocks's senses, affecting his instantaneous movements...

Lox snapped back to reality.

The spiked club, carrying immense power, crashed down, causing the air to burst open!

“This guy…”

Rocks crossed his arms, his heavy Armor Haki covering him and flowing into defense.

In this situation, the only option is to tough it out!

'Boom!'

The spiked club came crashing down, but it didn't hit Rocks directly; instead, it missed by about a fist's width.

But Lox felt his mind go blank for a moment...

The Conqueror's Haki impacted Rocks' mind in an unusual way, causing him to momentarily lose his senses.

In a moment of confusion, the flowing Armament Haki momentarily lost its solidity before being directly annihilated...

'Snap! Snap!'

The spiked club slammed into Rocks' defensive arms. Despite his Armament Haki, the blow was too much for Rocks to withstand, and the sound of bones breaking came from his arms.

It wasn't a simple fracture, but a comminuted fracture, with both arms twisted in a bizarre way...

This blow not only broke Rocks' arms, but also slammed him from the sky to the ground.

Like a falling meteorite, the dark green light crashed rapidly towards the ground...

With a final 'boom,' the ground was smashed into a bottomless crater.

Because the force was so strong, the surrounding earth shook and undulated, as if layers of land were being squeezed and bulging out...

Kaido descended from the sky, standing on a raised patch of ground, and laughed loudly at the crater in the other side: "Hehehe, I told you you're still too green, Blackwing Demon!"

The members of the Black Winged Demon's adventure group, who possessed Observation Haki, all had their expressions drastically change...

Nami cried out anxiously, "Xiao Luo!"

Robin's pupils also constricted slightly.

Guina tried to struggle to her feet.

Xiao Yi clutched the hem of her clothes, a look of worry in her eyes...

Seeing this, Moria quickly spoke up: "Don't let concern cloud your judgment. Do you think our captain is someone who can be taken down so easily?"

He didn't think Rocks would be defeated so easily; Rocks could even perfectly recover from having an arm cut off.

He didn't think others were unaware of Lox's restorative abilities.

These people are just too worried to think straight...

In another location, Momousagi locked her Observation Haki on that spot and murmured, "Has the Blackwing Demon been defeated?"

After suffering such a fierce attack from Kaido, there's absolutely no way the Blackwing Archdemon could escape unscathed.

It's even possible that they've already lost?
