Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 190 Kaido: Become my son-in-law!

Battlefield ruins.

"What's going on? Is it just my imagination?"

"The black-haired boy is surrounded by Conqueror's Haki!"

Kaido sensed that Loya's aura was clearly different from before, but he didn't believe that Loya could undergo such a transformation in such a short time.

"Huff... huff..."

Loya steadied his breathing and, relying on the world's restorative power, healed the injuries caused by the Thunder Bagua. However, his physical strength was severely depleted, and if he were hit by the Thunder Bagua again, he would surely die.

He slowly clenched his fist, an aura of dominance emanating from its surface like ripples on water, while Zefa's reprimand echoed in his mind.

Domineering aura is an invisible force, not something that can be increased by exerting force. Its invisibility means it is ever-changing; it can flow into the enemy's body like water, or it can be as hard as iron for defense.

Conqueror's Haki is the same!

Furthermore, the more one is pushed to the brink, the more domineering power one can unleash.

"Kaido, thank you!"

"After being hit by your spiked club, I finally understand!"

"A binding technique using Conqueror's Haki!"

A smile spread across Loya's face.

"Oro ro ro!"

Kaido laughed loudly, gripping his spiked club tightly with both hands: "Black-haired brat, only a very few strong individuals can do this. Can you do it?!"

"You'll see when you try it!"

Loya gripped Rain Cutter with both hands, his domineering aura flowing towards the blade!

The next moment, the two disappeared at the same time, instantly covering a distance of dozens of meters, and swung their long swords and spiked clubs with all their might!

"Clang!!!"

With a piercing buzz, the longsword and the spiked club slashed through the air, seemingly separated by an invisible barrier!

"Oro ro ro!"

"Ahhhhhh!"

Kaido and Loa roared fiercely, seemingly trying to suppress each other, but their weapons, which were held in the air, could not advance an inch!

Endless, domineering lightning bolts continued to spread outwards!

The winds rise and the clouds surge; the waves are towering!

"Weapons...not encountered!"

Yamato's eyes widened.

What's going on?

This had never happened before when she fought her father. Could this be the effect of a clash of Conqueror's Haki?

"That brat!"

Jack, who was hiding on the edge of the battlefield, was equally horrified. As if sensing something, he subconsciously looked up at the sky.

His pupils contracted sharply!

The clouds churned violently, and a deep, enormous chasm appeared in the center, as if the sky itself had been ripped apart by the collision between the two!

This scene also caught the attention of the navy outside the island.

"The sky has cracked open!"

"What on earth happened on the island?!"

"Lieutenant General Loya is still fighting!"

The officers considered heading to the island, but the relentless outward-rushing waves kept the warships further and further away from the island, making it impossible for them to get close.

This battle that Lieutenant General Loya is facing is even more intense and dangerous than his previous clash with Whitebeard.

"Oro ro ro!"

With a domineering battle roar, the enormous azure dragon soared upwards, floating above the island, its lantern-like eyes fixed on the ruins below, and on Loya, who was half-crouched on the ground, supporting himself with his sword.

"Black-haired boy, it would be such a waste to kill such a talented young man like you. Join my ranks and let's conquer the world together!"

"Huff... huff..."

Loya was panting heavily and didn't answer, but his cold gaze said it all.

"Oh, don't rush to refuse, you'll change your mind!"

Kaido stared at Loya, his eyes filled with admiration.

To possess such power at such a young age is something no one else could achieve, even if you searched the entire ocean.

"Black-haired kid, you're incredibly strong!"

Kaido praised his enemy without reservation, a praise he had never given to an enemy before, and he even repeatedly tried to subdue him.

"You really like my daughter, don't you? Oh ho ho ho, if you're willing to join my ranks, I'll give you Yamato in marriage, how about it?"

"hold head high?"

Loya raised an eyebrow.

He does like Yamato a lot, but it's not romantic love yet; he can't even muster any romantic feelings for her.

Actually, Yamato is very beautiful, and her appearance suits his taste, but this girl is too naive. He would feel guilty for deceiving a fool's feelings.

Not far away, Yamato's head was smoking.

"Marry, marry, marry Loya!"

"Oh, Father, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Me, me, me, me."

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her reaction.

"Oro ro ro!"

Kaido stared at Loya and stated the facts: "You risked your life to take Yamato away, and even risked your life to fight me to the death. You must really like her!"

"Emotions are ultimately a hindrance, a burden. If it weren't for emotions, you wouldn't be in this situation."

"But I approve of you, black-haired boy. You are worthy to be Yamato's husband, as long as you are willing to become my ally!"

Loya silently stood up, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and looked up at the Azure Dragon in the sky.

Becoming Yamato's husband and following Kaido to conquer the world seems pretty good, but it's a pity.

Loya spoke calmly.

"Excuse me, I'm from the Navy."

"navy?"

Kaido paused for a moment, then sneered.

"Oh ho ho ho, is this the kind of justice the Navy is after?"

"This is utterly ridiculous!"

"Black-haired boy, you're young and haven't yet seen the darkness of the world. When you climb to the top, you'll naturally understand the true nature of the world!"

"What's the difference between the Navy and the World Government you support and pirates? Garp and Sengoku are just deceiving themselves!"

"Listen carefully, the law of the jungle is the only law of nature, and only the strong have the right to rise above everything!"

In Kaido's mind, he recalled everything he had seen decades ago at God Valley, and the ugly faces of the Celestial Dragons during their massacre.

"Oh ho ho ho, black-haired boy, I'll come back for you!"

"The day you face reality, you and Yamato will become my strength, and together we will drag those born into nobility and those in power onto the battlefield!"

"That's true equality and freedom!"

"It's justice!"

"I'm really looking forward to that day!"

The Azure Dragon swooped down, grabbed Jack, and then soared upwards on a cloud of flames, disappearing into the clouds and vanishing without a trace.

"Oro ro ro ro~~~"

Only the roar of laughter echoed in the sky.

The war is over.

The rain started as a light drizzle and quickly turned into a downpour.

Loya stood motionless in place.

He let the rain wash away the bloodstains on his body.

"Equality and freedom?"

Although Kaido didn't say it outright, he already knew that the Navy was merely a tool to maintain the Celestial Dragons' rule over the world, and that the so-called justice was nothing more than propaganda to fool the lower-ranking marines.

But he wasn't actually that noble.

"Loya, are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

Loya looked at Yamato, whose cheeks were flushed and who was moving very cautiously, shook his head and smiled, and reached out to pat the girl's head.

Kaido has his own ambitions.

He also has his own path.

To move forward steadfastly, the only way is to believe in yourself!
