Pirate: I was just slacking off, do you really think I'm bad?

Rumble!

In pain, Kaido kept slamming his head against the ground, trying to shake Raleigh off his head.

Raleigh wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but still didn't let go of the dragon horns. Instead, he smashed Kaido's head even harder.

The ground was riddled with craters as Kaido ravaged it, and countless boulders were smashed to pieces.

However, he was never able to shake off Raleigh.

Seeing that it was of no use to Lori on his back, Kaido had no choice but to step out of his Azure Dragon form.

He only used the half-beast dragon form.

Lori loosened his grip on the dragon horns and leaped backward.

Kaido, in his half-beast dragon form, had blood streaming down his head and was panting heavily, indicating that he was not in a good state.

Raleigh's fists were imbued with top-tier Armament Haki, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Kaido at any moment.

Kaido took a deep breath and charged at Raleigh again.

Seeing this, Raleigh was naturally not afraid of Kaido, who had run out of tricks, and clenched his fists to meet him head-on.

Raleigh immediately noticed that Kaido was secretly accumulating energy in his mouth.

However, Raleigh didn't take it to heart.

With Kaido's abilities, he can't cause any damage to Raleigh at this point.

However, to be honest, Raleigh was a little surprised. The current Kaido is much weaker than the future Kaido-sensei, and most importantly, his Devil Fruit hasn't awakened.

It's important to understand that awakened and unawakened Devil Fruits are practically two different fruits.

Once a Zoan-type Devil Fruit awakens, its recovery ability and various attributes will double.

That is precisely why Kaido is the man who can't die no matter how hard he tries to commit suicide.

Although Kaido is naturally very strong, he is not to the point that Raleigh feels helpless against him.

"No wonder Kaido still doesn't dare to provoke so many powerful figures and can only quietly develop his strength."

In fact, Kaido really played it safe and focused on developing his character in the early stages.

Those abnormally strong individuals, like Shiki, Whitebeard, Roger, or Charlotte Linlin, could easily defeat him.

It was only later, when Kaido's Devil Fruit awakened and he acquired all three types of Haki, that he earned the title of Kaido of the Beasts, the strongest creature on land, sea, and air.

"Heat Breath!"

Kaido, seeing that Raleigh was completely unprepared, unleashed a burst of destructive heat towards Raleigh's head.

SM

A destructive laser beam, several meters wide, enveloped Raleigh's entire upper body.

New customers and newly opened stores can enjoy free access.

As the heat breath took effect, Raleigh's upper body was reduced to sand, and both his clothes and his flesh and bones were completely destroyed by Kaido's attack.

Kaido, who had endured for so long, was naturally very excited to have defeated his opponent in one move.

However, after the heat breath ended, he was exhausted and exited his half-beast dragon form, kneeling on one knee and panting heavily.

"Hahahaha, I'm the ultimate victor after all!"

Kaido's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Snap Snap Snap...de...

A burst of applause interrupted Kaido's joy, seemingly coming from in front of him.

Kaido looked up in shock, staring at Raleigh, who should have been reduced to ashes, with an incredulous expression.

At this moment, Raleigh showed no signs of being hit by the heat breath.

Whether it was his clothes or anything else, Raleigh seemed completely unaffected by the heat.

Upon witnessing this scene, Kaido suddenly had a thought flash through his mind and exclaimed in disbelief:

"You're also a Logia-type Devil Fruit user?"

Kaido could hardly believe it.

Devil Fruits are not uncommon.

Shangdiantai E

Extremely rare.

E

Logia-type Devil Fruits are already extremely rare, and top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruits are even rarer.

Enel, who just attacked, is a top-tier Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user.

Kaido assumed that Raleigh, who only used swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat, was not a Devil Fruit user, which is why he used a sneak attack and mistakenly believed that Raleigh had died from the heat breath.

"I regret to inform you that I am a Devil Fruit user."

Raleigh said sorry, but his face showed no remorse whatsoever.

"hateful

Before Kaido could finish speaking, a figure appeared in front of him.

With his right hand, wreathed in Armament Haki, he grabbed Kaido's head, a maniacal smile spreading across Raleigh's face. Then...

boom!

Raleigh slammed Kaido's face into the ground, creating a huge crater.

Subsequently, Raleigh did not intend to let go of Kaido.

With his right hand tightly gripping Kaido's head, his leg muscles tensed, his upper body bent, he dragged Kaido along.

Rumble!

Raleigh didn't stop until he had gone an unknown number of meters.

Looking at the trench that had formed behind him, at least a kilometer long, Raleigh smiled with satisfaction.

Kaido, whom he held, had already lost consciousness from the impact of his head hitting the hard rock.

Looking at Kaido, who was already in a deep coma, Raleigh revealed a satisfied smile.

This guy truly deserves to be one of the Four Emperors; even with such fierce attacks, he still didn't suffer a fatal wound.

Although he has fallen unconscious, given Kaido's physique, he should recover in half a day at most.

The battle on Raleigh's side had just ended when the two people in the sky received the message.

King felt a deep sorrow as he looked at Kaido lying unconscious at Raleigh's feet.

However, he is now in a precarious situation himself.

After all, Enel on the other side is also a character who is very skilled in aerial combat.

"Brother Kaido!"

King's mournful cries echoed across the island, but he wasn't on his way to save Kaido.

Instead, he needed to leave the island as quickly as possible to avoid being trapped by Enel and Raleigh.

Given Kaido's physique, he would never die at the hands of the Marines.

If King is outside, there is still a chance to rescue Kaido, but if he is captured along with Kaido, there is a high probability that the two of them will spend their lives in the Navy's prison.

"Lei Ying!"

Seeing that King was about to escape, Enel launched three attacks in succession, trying to intercept him. However, King's flying skills were extremely strong. He dodged Enel's first two lightning attacks, took one lightning attack, and then quickly disappeared into the sky.

Enel was very dissatisfied watching King fly away, but there was nothing he could do.

At least for now, his Ark Maxim doesn't have that kind of movement speed.

Piloting the Ark Maxim, he floated down from the sky and came to Raleigh's side.

Seeing that Kaido had fallen into a coma, Enel melted the gold in his hand into a chain and bound Kaido's limbs.

This guy's physique is exceptionally strong; let's use the Sea Tower Right Chain to lock him up in a bit.

Capturing Kaido would complete the mission.

However, Raleigh was still somewhat unhappy because the Beasts Pirates had run away, and King, the Yonko's first mate, had also run away.

Kaido is probably impossible to kill; he'll likely escape in the end.

But what does this have to do with Raleigh? If he ran away, it's because he wasn't properly supervised.

With that thought in mind, Raleigh hoisted Kaido onto his shoulder and headed towards the warship.

A violent collision erupted from the warship's cabin, causing those on board to show expressions of unease and agitation.

Raleigh's sweet dreams were also disturbed by the tremor, and he sat up angrily from the sunchair.

Enel walked over and said with a speechless expression:

"Brother Raleigh, Kaido has woken up again."

"His recovery ability is too strong, it's simply freakish."

After several days of trying to capture Kaido, the crew finally realized just how terrifying Kaido's regenerative abilities were.

The anesthetic that could incapacitate ten elephants for a day could only put Kaido to sleep for an hour and a half.

What would be fatal to an ordinary person would only take a day and a night to heal on Kaido.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to provide Vegapunk with live targets, Raleigh would have already started conducting human experiments on Kaido.

Even so, Kaido didn't fare well in Raleigh's hands.

Frustrated, Raleigh sat up from the sun lounger and walked into the cabin with a murderous look on his face.

The warship's cabins are very large, divided into naval dormitories, mess halls, activity rooms, etc. The prisons are located at the very bottom of the cabins. The naval prisons are very clean and do not have snakes, insects, rats, or ants like many prisons.

There is nothing here except a wild beast bound by chains like a silkworm.

Kaido of the Beasts!

He was bound by layers of seastone chains that locked all his joints and connected him to the ship's hull.

This is to prevent Kaido from breaking free of his chains and escaping while struggling.

However, now when Kaido struggles frantically, the impact is transmitted to the ship through the chains, which is why the ship is always shaking.

With the clatter of military boots on the floor, Kaido stopped struggling.

Over the past few days, he has become able to easily identify who is who by the sound of their footsteps.

As the door opened, Raleigh pushed it open and entered from the outside.

Upon seeing Raleigh, Kaido became even more agitated, and his Conqueror's Haki erupted along with his hatred.

It was stirring within this space.

Raleigh didn't care about the crazed Kaido.

He wasn't afraid of Kaido even when he was in good condition, let alone Kaido who had become a prisoner.

Raleigh stomped on Kaido's face, the extreme humiliation causing Kaido to struggle even more violently.

"Kaido was born in the Kingdom of Vorka on the Grand Line."

"At the age of ten, you had already become the strongest warrior in the entire kingdom; no one could defeat you."

Unfortunately, you are not valued by your country.

The King of the Kingdom of Woka unconditionally sold you out to the Navy in exchange for a spot in the World Conference.

"Yes."

A few words were enough to turn Kaido's eyes bloodshot.

These are the things that Kaido finds most unbearable to recall, things that no one dares to mention in front of him.

"Aaaaaah! You bastard, let me go! I'm going to kill you!"

I'm going to kill you! You bastard!

Kaido's furious roar echoed throughout the prison as he struggled frantically, the seastone chains binding him rattling loudly.

Kaido had never mentioned something to anyone in all these years, and now his opponent had revealed it so ruthlessly, which nearly consumed him with rage.

Seeing the extremely excited Kaido, Raleigh stopped talking and covered his right hand with Armament Haki.

Yu! Yu! Yu!

He pounded Kaido's head like striking a wooden fish, striking it twenty or thirty times in a row, until Kaido finally stopped struggling.

Raleigh shook his slightly sore right hand and said:

"Before you joined the Rocks Pirates, you didn't owe your country anything; on the contrary, your country owed you something."

However, after gaining power, you didn't choose to return to your hometown for revenge. Instead, after wreaking havoc on the pirate island of Hatchinos, you accepted Rocks D. Xebec's invitation and joined his pirate crew.

"Regardless of the circumstances, even after joining the Rocks Pirates as an apprentice pirate, you still committed acts deserving of trial. That's why I'm arresting you."

After being brutally beaten by Raleigh, Kaido was dizzy and didn't answer.

However, he was powerless to refute what Raleigh said, since everything Raleigh said was correct.

"Navy, don't let me find a chance to get out."

"If I get out, I will definitely, absolutely get my revenge!"

Kaido didn't roar hysterically; instead, his eyes flashed with unparalleled hatred. Raleigh was startled, then a sarcastic smile appeared on his face:

"Since you put it that way, then I'm even less likely to give you a chance to escape."

Don't worry, I will do everything in my power to ensure you stay in the Navy's laboratory forever, continuing the mission you were unable to complete in your youth.

Upon hearing what Raleigh said, Kaido flew into a rage once more, unleashing an overwhelming surge of killing intent and Conqueror's Haki upon Raleigh, but to no avail.

"Brother Raleigh, I've brought what you asked for."

Enel knocked on the door and came in with several marines.

Each of these naval soldiers held several extremely sharp sea stone spikes in their hands. When Raleigh saw this, he nodded and gestured for them to put them down.

I specially made this for you so you wouldn't disturb my rest. What do you think?

Kaido looked at the sea stone spikes on the ground and a chill ran down his spine. Although he didn't know how to use them, just looking at this pile of incredibly sharp sea stone spikes was enough to make him feel like he was being tortured.

Just as Kaido was about to resist, an unusually large syringe was inserted into his waist, injecting an anesthetic capable of paralyzing ten elephants.

"navy!

Before Kaido could finish speaking, he fainted.

Raleigh marked various joints on Kaido's body, instructing the marines to insert seastone into Kaido's body according to the marks. This was an improvement on the torture instruments Raleigh had seen in his previous life.

Sea stone is shaped into spikes and inserted into the body according to acupoints.

Whether it's a tough, physically strong fighter or a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user with amazing regenerative abilities, once the Seastone spikes are inserted into a joint, there's no chance of escape.

Raleigh was also getting a bit annoyed by Kaido's torment, otherwise he wouldn't have come up with such a ruthless method.
