One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 350 What kind of king do you want to become?

Inside Skull Castle, the pirates watched the fierce battle between the Flying Six and the newcomers, their very cells throbbing with excitement.

"Kill him!"

"Haha, the combination of Lord Peggy and Lady Runti is invincible!"

"Witness the power of the beasts!"

The calls grew louder and louder.

Kidd and the Strange Monk's men were also below the arena, watching their captain struggle, their faces pale.

"So strong!"

The opponent was just a high-ranking official, not even a big shot, but even so, the strength they displayed was extremely astonishing.

It's hard to imagine just how powerful the three big bosses and two captains are, who are even more powerful than the Flying Six!
Furthermore, the pirates around them all exuded an aura comparable to ferocious beasts, especially those strange Zoan-type Devil Fruit users, who looked incredibly powerful.

In addition, there are some real fighters who are clearly of higher status.

"Apu!"

Kira looked toward the stage on the second floor.

"Sea Cry" Ap!
It seems Apoo has sided with the Beasts!
This is understandable. Having witnessed the immense power of the Beasts Pirates, they were also filled with despair. If their captain hadn't been still fighting, they might have made the same choice as Apoo.

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.

"Hoo-ho~ Hoo-ho~~"

The three, who were engaged in fierce fighting, distanced themselves from each other and were all panting heavily, clearly exhausted, especially Runti and her brother.

The opponent was more difficult to deal with than the two had anticipated, and even with their combined efforts, they could only barely maintain the stalemate.

"Bastard!"

Kidd was equally anxious.

Being held up by the officers for so long is unacceptable to him; his target is the Yonko Kaido and that Good!

If this drags on, we might not even get a chance to fight.

Kidd's eyes widened in fury, and the mechanical puppet beneath him rapidly transformed: "How can I let you little minions hold me back!"

"Magnetic Energy·Big Demonic Bull!"

A giant mechanical bull has appeared!

Kidd sat atop the mechanical bull, purple arcs of electricity emanating from his body, while the mechanical bull beneath him accelerated its run.

Runti Page One sensed the immense power of the mechanical bull, but instead of fleeing, she charged forward furiously.

"Xiao Pei!"

"understand!"

One on the left and one on the right, the two men simultaneously grabbed one of the mechanical bull's huge horns, their veins bulging as they roared and wrestled!

"Oh oh oh!!!"

As an ancient species of the Zoan type, strength is their forte!
Therefore, we must not back down!
"Hahaha, you're really overestimating yourself!"

Kidd laughed wildly.

"Humans invented machines because human strength cannot match the power of mechanical construction, even if you are an ancient species."

"Fuck!"

The mechanical bull moves forward on all fours, with hydraulic devices in its legs opening and closing continuously, providing powerful propulsion like muscles.

"Haha, try and block it if you dare!"

"Crack!"

The siblings' feet were embedded deep in the ground, shattering bricks and stones, and then they slid backward under the violent thrust of the mechanical bull.

Can't stop!
"It's gone viral!"

When the two stopped, their feet were already off the ring.

According to the rules, they have already lost.

"Damn it!"

The siblings were furious, but they had to admit that their opponent was indeed very strong; despite being a newcomer, he was stronger than they had imagined.

The intelligence is true.

The opponent probably really did defeat a certain general!
Kidd looked toward the ring, his gaze lingering between Good and Kaido before finally settling on Kaido.

Compared to Goode, he was more eager to kill Kaido, one of the Four Emperors!
"Get down here and die, Kaido!"

"Hmph, you're so arrogant!"

Kaido laughed and took a swig of wine, then looked at Goode beside him: "Goode, this kid specifically named me to challenge me."

"With so many men watching, don't embarrass the captain."

Goode responded expressionlessly.

"Ugh, that's really strict!"

Kaido curled his lip and leaped off the platform!

"boom!!!"

The ground shook, and dust swept across the square!

"Kaido!"

Kidd's pupils dilated, revealing an endless longing.

He had been waiting for two long years, and now the moment had finally arrived. Once he defeated the monster before him, he would be just one step away from becoming the Pirate King!
"Sizzle~ Sizzle~~"

Kidd's entire body crackled with electric arcs, and the mechanical bull beneath him rapidly disintegrated, swirling around him like a storm before reconstructing itself.

"Let me show you my trump card!"

"Electromagnetic cannon!!!"

A massive mechanical turret appeared on Kidd's left arm.

Electromagnetic cannon!

After being defeated by Law, and through his experience in the prisoner quarry, he finally mastered the ultimate form of the Devil Fruit.

Wake up!

This electromagnetic cannon, capable of destroying everything, is the ultimate secret he has mastered!
"Hey, what's that?!"

“It’s not a good feeling!”

"Quick, get away!"

The pirates sensed something was wrong and hurriedly moved away from the arena, especially the direction the cannons had been aimed at. In the blink of an eye, the arena was empty. The officers' expressions also changed.

Especially Quinn.

Quinn was a little jealous: "That kid actually managed to come up with something this good. Damn it, if I ate this fruit, it might be more suitable for that bastard Judge!"

From his professional perspective, the Magnet-Magnet Fruit is best suited to be eaten by scientists, especially Vinsmoke Judge, who is the most outstanding researcher of mechanical weapons.

"Kidd, I'll cover you!"

Killer jumped onto the ring and stood to Kid's side to provide cover. He could tell that Kid's new move required a long charging time, so his role was to hold off Kaido.

"Uro-ro-ro!"

Kaido, the dragon-man who had transformed into a demon, emerged from the smoke and dust, his chilling killing intent enveloping Kid and his companion.

"Oh!"

The spiked club slammed to the ground.

Kaido's eyes gleamed like copper bells, his fighting spirit boiling.

"Don't worry, red-haired brat, I can take that!"

"Hahaha, what a boastful tone!"

Kidd laughed maniacally.

"Remember this: I will defeat you, defeat all the Four Emperors, and become the Pirate King by finding the One Piece!"

Eustass Kidd!

"Disappear, Kaido!!!"

"Electromagnetic cannon!!!"

The electromagnetic cannon emitted a red glow, and a crimson beam of light shot out, striking Kaido without any obstruction!
"Uro ro ro!!!"

Kaido roared and raised his spiked club to block the crimson beam of light!
"boom!!!"

His body suddenly sank, and the ground behind him shattered layer by layer!
At this moment, all the pirates held their breath, their eyes fixed on the battlefield, on Kaido who had been hit by the electromagnetic cannon!
"Blocked?!"

"no!"

Under the shocked gazes of the pirates, Kaido's arms trembled, and his body slowly moved backward, showing signs of retreating.

Kidd roared and exerted his strength once more.

"Electromagnetic Cannon - Additional!"

The electromagnetic cannon, which had been somewhat dim, once again emitted a dazzling light, and the electromagnetic beam suddenly doubled in size.

"boom!!!"

The spiked club flew out.

The electromagnetic beam slammed into Kaido's chest. Kaido, who had been able to withstand the attack, could no longer maintain his balance and was sent flying backward like a cannonball.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The electromagnetic beam, propelling Kaido, smashed through walls one after another!

"boom!!!"

The island trembled, and smoke and dust billowed into the sky.

This attack pierced through the Skull Castle!
"Sizzle~ Sizzle~~"

The electromagnetic beam gradually dissipated, leaving behind streaks of electric arcs in the air.

"Hu~hu~~"

Kidd knelt on the ground, panting heavily. This attack had almost exhausted most of his strength, but the effect was also extremely amazing.

"Won!"

"I defeated Kaido, one of the Four Emperors!"

Kidd roared to the sky.

However, the Skull Castle was eerily quiet.

The pirates stared coldly at Kid, unmoved by the earlier clash; Kaido couldn't possibly lose so easily.

"you--"

Kidd was furious and about to explode when his mind suddenly went blank, and he looked incredulously at the crater created by the electromagnetic cannon.

A terrifying aura is approaching!

"Uro ro ro!!!"

With a deep roar, a large hand grabbed the wall, and then the owner of the hand emerged from the pit.

Kaido, the "strongest creature"!
"It hurts so much!"

Kaido, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, clutched his charred chest with his left hand: "Kid, you did a good job. This will definitely leave a scar!"

"what?!"

Kidd's pupils trembled.

Just leaving scars?!
"Hehehe, are you ready?!"

Kaido grinned wildly, picked up his spiked club from the ground, and then walked step by step toward Kid and the other two.

Upon seeing this, both of them changed color.

"Kira, cover me!"

Kidd roared and raised the electromagnetic cannon.

"One more shot! This time I'm going to blast this monster's head through!"

The electromagnetic railgun shone brightly once again!
But the next moment, Kaido flew up like a demon, his spiked club crackling with black lightning!

"Great Vajra - Thunderous Eight Trigrams!!!"

A flash of light, and countless black lightning bolts exploded!

The electromagnetic cannon shattered and disintegrated, and Kidd and his companion, covered in blood, were sent flying backward and crashed into the walls of Skull Castle.

"boom!!!"

Centered on the two people, a huge skull-shaped dent was blasted into the city wall!

Kaido slung his spiked club over his shoulder, his bloodthirsty gaze fixed on Kid, who was embedded in the city wall, and coldly asked a question.

"What kind of king do you want to be?"
