Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

"Radiant Sword!!"

Zeus and Prometheus coiled around Napoleon, forming an energy ring that converged on the blade.

That wasn't all; the woman yelled again:

"Mother visits the cannon, three thousand miles away!!!"

Lightning, flames, and the power of the sword converged at the top of the Mingguang Sword, gradually merging into a giant female figure with a greenish-blue body and explosively burning hair.

"Three thousand miles, go and take down this guy who can only run!"

"Yes, Mom!"

Sanqianli immediately responded and then rushed towards Kizaru at an extremely fast speed.

Upon seeing this thing, a hint of surprise flashed across Kizaru's face, but it quickly disappeared, and he spoke with a sullen expression:

"This is something I've never seen before, it's so scary!"

"but--"

"At this speed, they probably can't catch me~"

Just as Sanqianli was about to reach Kizaru, he transformed into a yellow flash and vanished from his original spot, reappearing a few hundred meters away on the other side.

But as soon as he appeared, his expression suddenly changed, and the Kusanagi Sword immediately appeared in his hand, which he then slashed fiercely to the side.

boom--

A terrifying shockwave exploded, and a giant sword energy clashed with his Ame-no-Murakumo sword. The immense power blasted Kizaru away, and he transformed into a yellow flash in mid-air, appearing not far in front of Big Mom after a brief flash.

A faint trace of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

The old woman was still in the position of swinging her sword when she saw Kizaru's appearance, and a grin spread across her face.

"How was it, Kizaru? My 'Mighty Nation' technique was pretty powerful, wasn't it?"

"You're so good at running, keep running!!"

As they spoke, Sanchiri charged toward Kizaru again from the other side. Kizaru glanced at Big Mom, then at Sanchiri charging toward him, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He roughly understood the old lady's intentions.

The old lady never expected to catch up with him over three thousand miles; that was unrealistic, after all, he was light.

So the older woman doesn't need to travel 3,000 miles to catch up with him; she just needs to keep putting pressure on him during the chase.

But the person who actually launched the attack was the old lady herself.

In this way, the old lady doesn't need to chase after people herself. She only needs to use her Observation Haki to sense Kizaru's path at all times. When Kizaru stops, she can launch an attack at the fastest speed, thus keeping Kizaru busy dealing with the situation.

It must be said that this is indeed a very effective way to deal with Kizaru.

Kizaru frowned slightly; this time it was a genuine frown.

She murmured softly:

"It seems things are getting complicated!"

Meanwhile, the battle between Kyle and Whitebeard has also entered a heated phase.

The two exchanged blows, and after yet another exchange, they both staggered back a considerable distance.

After stopping, the white-bearded man groaned, his face flushed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His chest heaved violently, causing his body to rise and fall continuously, and his heavy breathing echoed around him.

The white-bearded man's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked up at Kyle across from him.

Kyle's navy lining had disappeared, leaving his upper body bare and revealing his well-defined muscles.

Surprisingly, even after fighting Whitebeard for so long, he had no injuries whatsoever; his chest simply heaved, and he was panting heavily, just like Whitebeard.

Even so, Kyle managed a smile.

"Whitebeard, it seems you're really getting old! Not only are your punches not as strong as they used to be, but your stamina is also failing!"

"There's still a place for you in Impel Down. How about it? Want to come in and have a seat?"

"Phew~~"

The white-bearded man exhaled deeply, calming his breathing, and squinted at Kyle as he spoke:

"Kid, this is nothing!"

"The Impel Down temple is too small; it can't even hold me!"

"Then I'll make sure it can fit!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kyle was about to attack Whitebeard again, but at that moment, a powerful burst of Conqueror's Haki suddenly came from not far away, interrupting Kyle's actions.

This aura is...

Kyle's pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately turned his head to look in the direction from which the Conqueror's Haki was coming.

At the entrance to the city, a group of familiar figures were standing there.

Although I had already anticipated it, my pupils still contracted again when I actually saw this group of figures.

"Kaido, Shiki, Wang Zhi, and..."

Kyle looked toward the entrance to Impel Down, further back from Kaido and the others, where a dark figure slowly emerged, revealing his face.

"Barrett!!"

Kyle's brows furrowed tightly.

Why?!

Why did Kaido and his crew come out of Impel Down? Where is Magellan?

Meanwhile, Kaido seemed to sense Kyle's gaze and looked in Kyle's direction.

Upon seeing Kyle's figure, he couldn't help but grin, and at the same time, the Conqueror's Haki emanating from his body became even more powerful.

Not only Kaido, but also Shiki and several other prisoners unleashed Conqueror's Haki, with several bursts of it swirling together and sweeping across the battlefield.

Countless marines lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground the moment they came into contact with this Conqueror's Haki.

Ultimately, less than one-tenth of the Navy personnel were able to maintain consciousness under this combined Conqueror's Haki!

In just a moment, the pressure on the Navy, which had been reduced because Kyle had taken care of a large portion of the pirates, became immense again, many times greater than before.

Besides the fact that their numbers have decreased, the main reason is that the opponents they are facing have also changed.

Previously, they only had to deal with the pirate alliance of the Three Emperors Pirates, but now they also have to contend with the prisoners in Impel Down, and as time goes by, one prisoner after another continues to walk out of Impel Down.

These prisoners are not weak at all, especially the pirates who are imprisoned on the fifth floor and below; they are no ordinary people.

Upon seeing Kaido, the Beasts Pirates became incredibly excited, roaring wildly:

"Governor Kaido! It's Governor Kaido!!"

"But why did Governor Kyle come out of Impel Down by himself? It seems like none of us have broken in yet, right?"

As they spoke, some pirates asked questions in confusion, but their questions were quickly drowned out by the excited voices of others.

"Why bother with so much!"

"Anyway, it's good that Governor Kaido is out now, and Lord Jack is here too!"

"Governor Kaido!! Governor Kaido!!!"

In an instant, all the pirates of the Beast Pirates roared, and the entire pirate crew's momentum instantly rose to a new level.

Having Kaido here and not having Kaido here are two completely different concepts.

Before this, the Three Emperors Pirates were missing their leader, which made them feel inexplicably inferior when facing the other two pirate crews.

But not anymore. Their leader is here, and now they are the true Emperor Pirates!!
