The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 142 Kaido of the Beasts

A long steel passageway.

A figure, like a lost beast, appeared slightly frenzied, wandering aimlessly, attacking anything that didn't suit its eye with a huge spiked club.

"Boom!"

Each strike produced a deafening explosion.

Upon hearing the commotion, Charlotte's expression darkened, and she immediately rushed towards the direction from which the sound came.

A moment later!

A burly man with horns on his head, tattoos on his chest, and a spiked club appeared, exuding an aura of menace.

"Kaido!"

Charlotte was taken aback. It was Kaido of the Beasts, known as the strongest creature and one of the future Four Emperors.

How did I end up here?

This guy seems to have actually been captured. The Devil Fruit that Vegapunk imitated was based on Kaido's Zoan-type Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon form.

Because Kaido, who had escaped from prison, unexpectedly saved King, a survivor of the Lunaria tribe, and was impressed by his immense strength, King firmly believed that Kaido was "Joy Boy" and loyally followed him.

So, Jin is here too! Imprisoned somewhere.

He didn't expect it to happen at this time; what a coincidence!

No, it's really bad luck!

Although Kaido is far from his peak, his strength is still formidable, which is troublesome.

"Hey kid, who are you?"

Kaido, in his early twenties, looked at Charlotte with an air of dominance and said.

It's normal that the other party doesn't know; they don't even know how long they've been here.

Faced with Charlotte's lack of response, Kaido launched an attack.

He instantly appeared beside Charlotte and brought his spiked club down on her head.

Damn, they have no martial ethics.

Charlotte dodged the attack by leaping to the side.

With a loud bang, rubble flew everywhere, and a cloud of smoke billowed up.

Whoosh!

Kaido broke through the obstacles and continued his attack, while Charlotte's expression turned grim.

Tianku swiftly drew his sword and slashed out.

Clang!

The sword and the club collided violently, and the immense force created a shockwave that reverberated in all directions.

The knife and the stick were locked in a stalemate in mid-air, their immense forces constantly clashing and producing a resounding tremor.

"Not bad, kid!"

Kaido was surprised and seemed to become somewhat excited.

"abnormal!"

Charlotte's troubles: everyone here is so strong. Kaido's physical strength is terrifying; even his brute force is still awe-inspiring.

The vigorous life force within the other party's body... it's terrifying.

The title of monster is well-deserved.

Charlotte flicked her sword upwards, temporarily deflecting Kaido's attack.

"Again!"

With a loud shout, Kaido charged forward once more.

"Jingle bells!"

The two weapons clashed violently, the loud noise sending shockwaves through the air and a series of sparks flying out.

"Haha! That felt great!"

Kaido roared and continued to exert his power.

"Damn it!"

Charlotte deflected the opponent's attack, leaped into the air, adjusted her posture, and swung her knife downwards.

"Slash!"

A burst of light erupted as a crescent-shaped slash descended from the sky.

Kaido's eyes turned serious as he brandished his spiked club, "Eight Precepts."

"Diamond-shaped Dagger!"

The air distorted, producing a sonic boom, and a purple cylindrical rod shot into the sky.

"boom!"

The violent impact produced a terrifying explosion.

Charlotte landed smoothly, and the two looked directly at each other.

As expected, Kaido had not yet perfectly integrated Conqueror's Haki into his attacks.

The next moment, the two of them turned into afterimages and rushed towards each other.

"Thunderous Eight Trigrams!"

"One-Sword Style: Divine Wind: Ten Cuts!"

Two roars rang out simultaneously, their terrifying power distorting the surrounding air.

In an instant, the purple lightning unleashed unparalleled destructive power, blasting in all directions and tearing through the air forward.

The crimson sword energy intertwined in a cross shape, bursting forth like a meteor in an instant, leaving a trail of light as it arrived.

"boom!"

An incredibly terrifying shockwave spread instantly, shattering the surrounding walls and sweeping far away, causing the ground to crack under the immense force.

The terrifying power quickly vanished.

The two figures moved with lightning speed, continuing their frantic collisions before quickly retreating.

"roar!"

"ah!"

With the final blow, the two left afterimages as they rushed toward each other at high speed.

"clang!"

The sword and the club collided heavily, the impact instantly creating a large crater and whipping up a terrifying gust of wind.

The two men's charging stance came to a complete halt, their crossed weapons unleashing terrifying power in an attempt to overwhelm each other.

"Click click click!"

A series of tremors rang out, and soon the ground beneath their feet could no longer withstand the immense force, humming and crackling as it shattered.

Unable to maintain their footing any longer, the two sides quickly separated and retreated.

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

Kaido acknowledged Charlotte before him, recognizing that few, aside from renowned monsters, could rival him head-on.

He's not called "boy".

Charlotte was very dissatisfied. The constant use of "little boy" annoyed him. Although the other person was indeed older than him, he still spoke up.

"Hippefeller Charlotte".

"Great name, haha!"

Kaido then said, "How about it? How about joining my pirate crew?"

"In no mood!"

Faced with such an unreasonable request, Charlotte refused without even thinking. He wasn't the type to be someone's lackey.

Absolutely impossible!

Kaido saw Charlotte's straightforward refusal without any sign of displeasure; the strong naturally possess pride.

He shouted with boldness and magnanimity, "Don't you want to take down those arrogant world nobles?"

Charlotte looked at Kaido with some surprise. To be honest, he didn't want to do something so noble.

That kind of thing is best left unsaid.

Let's leave it to the future chosen one of the world!

This made Charlotte a little curious: Did Kaido really have such lofty ideals?

"Why?" he asked instinctively.

Kaido's expression was serious and extremely solemn.

"I don't understand why everyone obeys the Celestial Dragons so much."

"Those arrogant, pleasure-seeking bastards of the world should also experience the cruelty of war so that the world can truly demonstrate equality and freedom."

"That's why I want to change the world."

Charlotte stood there stunned, looking somewhat dazed. He hadn't expected that Kaido in his youth would think this way.

This ideal is actually quite grand.

It's such a pity!

Charlotte sighed with emotion. He must have gone from a dragon-slaying boy with dreams to a fearsome dragon, or perhaps he had experienced things that ordinary people could not imagine and had become disheartened.

Thinking about it, it's quite ironic.

The childhood experiences of those powerful pirates with astonishing bounties who inspire fear throughout the world of One Piece.

It's not hard to see that most of them have experienced war, betrayal, exploitation, deception, hunger...

An unhappy childhood distorted the innocence and kindness in one's heart.

This is undeniably a tragedy!

Some people are healed by their childhood throughout their lives, while others spend their entire lives healing from their childhood.

Charlotte looked at Kaido, a hint of sincerity in her eyes, and said casually.

"I think I'll pass! My dream is to lie down safely and live a life of leisure, not to be a hero."

Kaido looked at Charlotte with some surprise. He sensed that Charlotte was speaking from the heart and burst into laughter.

"Interesting, interesting, but that's not enough!"

Kaido spoke with ill intent; he genuinely admired the young Charlotte.

Charlotte replied with a helpless expression, "Um... I'm a member of the Flying Pirates now."

Kaido shook his head, somewhat surprised. Then, in a very nonchalant manner, Kaido transformed into a giant blue dragon, opening his mouth and spewing out a burst of dragon flame that pierced through the iron wall.

Its enormous body rose into the air amidst fiery clouds, soaring high into the distance.

Charlotte was filled with envy. Look at that ability, flying through the clouds! So impressive.

Moreover, he's both tough and capable of dealing damage, making him a true all-rounder.

Charlotte was equally amazed.

Kaido, this guy truly lives up to his reputation as a monster. He's far from reaching his peak, yet my battle with him has already fallen to the bottom.

A prolonged battle will inevitably lead to defeat; the road ahead is still long!

In particular, he felt the power of the domineering entanglement, which gave him a long-lost feeling of heat.
