From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 104 The Soul-Shaking Black Flame

The flames, as if burning the sky, caused the temperature on the entire ghost island to soar suddenly.

Even Jhin, known as the Flame Disaster, a member of the Lunaria race who are born with the ability to control fire, felt the terrifying heat at this moment.

After clashing with him, Rayleigh and Rayleigh both stopped fighting at the same time and looked up at the distant sky.

Jin's gaze was solemn.

Even from such a distance, the heat of such flames could be felt; he was still a member of the Lunaria clan.

This alone is enough to imagine the terror of the flames on that long sword in the center of the battlefield.

Lord Kaido... can you stop him?

The moment the thought arose, the thorny iron rod was melted into molten iron with a single blow.

Following closely behind, Kevin, who suddenly appeared in his Azure Dragon form, sliced ​​off the dragon's tail and blew it off.

This scene caused Jhin to clench his fists tightly.

Meanwhile, Rayleigh, who was also gazing at the sky, was equally shocked by the intense heat at the center.

Even Sakazuki, hailed as the strongest new generation of the Navy and a Logia-type Magma-Magma Fruit user, wouldn't reach this level of heat at 1,500 degrees Celsius.

At this moment, Kaido's Haki might not be as strong as the captain's or Whitebeard's, but he was dissolved along with his weapon in just a few seconds of collision.

Such a temperature is at least several times that of lava!

Just who exactly is the captain's husband?

Is this intense heat an ability? Or something else entirely?

If it weren't for the fact that there was a Lunarian standing right in front of him, Rayleigh would have even thought that Kevin was a Lunarian.

……

On the other side, Roger burst into laughter.

This power is not even the limit for the master. If all the Celestial Dragons from Mary Geoise were imprisoned in that prison, and the black flames absorbed all the sin points, then...

What Joy Boy!

What kind of immense kingdom left behind the power of the world!

What Neptune and Hades!

None of this matters. If the gentleman wants to overturn the world, Mary Geoise will be like a paper tiger, easily shattered.

"Fatty, want to keep hitting me?"

Roger's right arm was restored, and he casually gripped the longsword as he looked at Quinn.

"Gulp."

Quinn swallowed hard, and a spark landed on his broad forehead.

"ah!"

After exclaiming in surprise, he slapped the sparks away.

Queen sighed and looked at Roger: "We're all pirates, as a senior, you shouldn't make things difficult for a newbie like me, right? I surrender, how about you let me go?"

Roger laughed: "That won't do. Either you can fly like Kaido, or you're not leaving today since the master has singled you out."

……

Amidst the ruins, looking at the azure dragon in the sky that he had fought with all his might to leave only a few wounds, now crippled, Oden's gaze was filled with complex emotions.

The fallen dragon claw and a section of the dragon tail have returned to their original form after losing the Devil Fruit power of their original owners.

That was Kaido's left hand and a piece of flesh and tailbone.

Moreover, Oden, who had fought Kaido once, knew very well that the Azure Dragon form was not Kaido's strongest form.

Kaido's strongest form is when he is in a half-human, half-dragon form, combined with all three types of Haki.

But Kaido was unable to land in his Azure Dragon form, making the outcome of the battle immediately clear. The flames that seemed capable of burning the sky were terrifying!

The follow-up plans that the Kang family patriarch had devised seemed so pale and powerless in the face of such power.

The conversation from before resurfaced in Oden's mind.

"Lord Oden, the Kozuki clan has ruled Wano Country as its monarchs for hundreds of years. This is both an honor and a responsibility for the Kozuki clan!"

"We all hope that everyone in Wano Country can live a better life, but the people are ignorant; they can't distinguish who the best decision-makers are!"

"Only the Kozuki clan, the Kozuki clan that has led Wano Country to where it is today for eight hundred years, can lead Wano Country to continue its prosperity in the future!"

"Lord Oden, you wouldn't want those five years of *dancing* to continue to be a stain on the Kozuki clan, would you?"

"All you need to do is have a fierce battle with Kaido over Onigashima, and I will assist Your Highness in completing the rest!"

……

Oden looked at the Ame no Habakiri and Enma in his hands. With such blazing flames, how could Wano Country dare to break the agreement?

and……

The future that Lavrud foresaw was one of great change that was about to occur in the world.

Twenty years from now, or perhaps starting today, Wano Country will face enormous challenges.

I cannot and will not be a presumptuous person who tries to stop the tide of history.

……

Meanwhile, Kevin, still in mid-air, immediately released Ryujin Jakka's Shikai after discovering that the coordinates he had used to land on Kaido had disappeared.

It seems that my guess when I obtained the Flying Thunder God Technique was correct. It is of the level of a golden treasure chest, but its mobility is almost like teleportation.

In the world of Naruto, the coordinates of the Flying Thunder God Technique remained for decades after they landed on Obito and Killer Bee, until Obito absorbed the Ten-Tails' life force and leaped to the Six Paths, at which point the coordinates were eliminated.

However, in the world of One Piece, the Flying Thunder God Technique is similar to a Devil Fruit ability, requiring physical strength to use, and is therefore limited by the Haki generated by that physical strength.

It is not countered by P matter, but its coordinates can be erased by top-tier Armament Haki.

There have been two powerful beings whose coordinates have been used to land here, but the last time, the chameleon in the Sabaody Archipelago was killed instantly by a surprise attack.

It seems that from now on, we can only rely on surprise attacks, but even just Ryujin Jakka is enough to pose an absolute deterrent to the world's top combat forces.

The Shikai of his Zanpakuto is currently his weakest point in terms of overall combat strength.

The three types of Haki consume mental and physical strength, as do a series of other abilities, all of which require a strong foundation.

A single strike from a weapon like the Flowing Blade of Fire, Fire Repelling, Pine Fire, or Burning the City Walls will drain you dry.

Currently, relying solely on the basic blade flame temperature of the initial release is the only way to sustain a prolonged battle.

……

Kevin landed and met the gaze of the Azure Dragon in mid-air.

Kaido, whose dragon claw and tail had been severed, had blood dripping from mid-air, but he showed no intention of falling down to fight to the death.

The intense heat, which seemed to set the entire sky ablaze, was impossible to withstand head-on.

Although he can be a bit reckless at times, he's definitely not a fool.

The opponent withdrew the flame after the [Fire Seed] mark disappeared, but that doesn't mean they were exhausted and unable to use it again.

More likely, once the opponent realized that teleportation wouldn't allow them to get close, they immediately ended that state, which could then be restarted.

"roar!!"

Kaido did not retreat; heat energy gathered in his enormous dragon mouth.

Heat!

The scorching flames struck the ground directly, but Kevin, using his Observation Haki and incredible speed, was not hit by the heat. It merely made the already crystalline ground even redder.

Following closely behind were countless wind blades and gales.

However, these forces that were clearing out the grunts were clearly unable to inflict any effective damage on Kevin. Kaido, who was in mid-air, obviously realized this as well.

"You can't maintain that state for long, right? In this situation, you can't hit me high in the air with that state either."

Kaido's half-burnt dragon tail swung, and he turned and headed towards Onigashima Port.

"Clean up the weaklings and let these people of Wano Country know who truly controls their lives!"

Amidst the ruins, Oden suddenly charged forward, wielding his twin swords and unleashing two slashes towards the sky.

"Snapped!"

A dragon claw gripped tightly, crushing the slash directly.

"Don't panic."

At that moment, Kevin placed one hand on Oden's shoulder.

However, Oden could not calm down: "The Yasuie daimyo, Hyogoro-nii, and the daimyo of various regions are all there! Not only that, but a thousand of the Revolutionary Army's support forces are also in that direction."

Kevin pressed down hard on his hand, sighed, and said, "So this is habitual thinking. They may keep talking about how the people of Wano are doing, but when it really happens, all they think about is the safety of the powerful and wealthy."

"Those warriors who were summoned, weren't they also there to protect this country? Do you really think that hereditary rule by nobles has any meaning for the people?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kevin threw down a kunai and disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, Kevin reappeared in my hand, holding a small hexagonal stone with a lifelike rooster carved on it.

Chicken Talisman: Based on one's own power, theoretically possessing unlimited levitation power.

"Buzz!"

With a buzzing sound, Kevin floated into the air, then stepped on the air at an extremely fast speed, creating an aerial dash that far exceeded the speed of a moonwalk.

"Bang!"

The sound of an air explosion rang out, and Kevin, wielding a shallow weapon, caught up with Kaido as he flew.

Slay him!

Conqueror's Haki coalesced, and a light attack, covered in Armament Haki, swept past at extreme speed.

Kaido flipped over and swept back, his claws gripping the blade tightly, a trickle of blood falling through.

"You... can fly too?"

Kevin had no obligation to answer him, and as he was sent flying by the disparity in strength, the chanting began again.

"All the sins of the world return to ashes. Like a flowing blade, it burns like fire!"

The flames erupted again, and the intense heat engulfed the entire Oni Island.

"Bang!"

The sweltering air was broken as Kevin's longsword slashed towards the Azure Dragon's body.

"asshole!"

Kaido roared, his entire body contracted rapidly, transforming into a half-human, half-dragon form, thus avoiding the attack that would split him in two.

"You can't escape!"

High in the sky, Kevin, who was falling at high speed, held a flaming blade and slashed down at Kaido.

Having lost his iron bar, Kaido instantly channeled all his Armament Haki into his right hand.

Black lightning exploded in mid-air, a manifestation of the king's wrath and an outburst of unwillingness.

Thunder! Gossip!

The jet-black iron fist intertwined with lightning, then collided with the fiery blades descending from the sky.

"boom!!"

A tremendous roar resounded, the rocks around the center of the battlefield shattered, and the scorching flames crystallized the surrounding land.

"laugh……"

A meaty aroma wafted out, and smoke rose from Kaido's right arm. The gruesome wound was completely dry, as it had been carbonized and sterilized to stop the bleeding when it was severed.

"You didn't leave when you had such a good opportunity. Now, it's probably too late to run."

Kevin said, pushing off with his foot and heading towards Kaido again.

Next, Kaido, no longer daring to take the direct hits, could only face reality and attempt to evade using his Observation Haki.

However, even if the oncoming flames avoid the blade, one will still be burned.

The terrifyingly high temperature made the surrounding environment extremely hot, and even the oxygen inhaled into the lungs seemed to be engulfed in flames.

Kaido even discovered that his mental will was beginning to falter.

"tumultuous!"

As flames swept past, Kaido, in his dragon-man form, used his severed tail to slam the ground to avoid the attack, but he was almost struck in the neck by the flaming blade.

"Huff huff huff... Just a little bit short. That was disrespectful to you for being in a daze just now."

The flames swept in again, and this time Kaido saw them.

Those wisps of black mixed in with the crimson flames seemed to have a life of their own, actually burrowing into his body.

The black flames did not burn him, but they caused his mental will to waver in an incredible way.

No! It's not about spirit or willpower!

Kaido retreated again, glancing out of the corner of his eye at Roger watching from afar.

What was shaken... was the soul!

The next moment, that feeling of disorientation returned.

At the same time, a suffocating heat also hit them.

"tumultuous!"

The flaming blade slashed down, cutting from the shoulder to the waist.

"ah!!"

With a roar, Kaido's will desperately tried to retreat.

The black flames shook his soul, and his body and will seemed incompatible at this moment. His three-colored domineering aura was also weakened by more than one layer.

"Ahem!"

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Kaido looked down at his upper body.

The wound that ran from the shoulder to the waist was burned to a crisp, and the internal organs were also affected by the intense heat; half of the kidneys were even burned.

With injuries like that, it's impossible for him to fight anymore.

Kaido turned to look at King the Wildfire.

I betrayed your trust, Jhin. I promised you back then that I would turn this world upside down.

But he ultimately died here.

"call out!"

A black figure swept past, picked up Kaido, and fled into the sky.

The flames swept in, but it ignored everything and didn't even increase its defense to sacrifice speed.

King of the Lunaria tribe pushed himself to the limit, disregarding the injuries on his back, determined to take Kaido out.

At this moment, Kevin's Ryujin Jakka had automatically reverted to its Shikai form, and Kevin sat down heavily on the ground, panting heavily.

His domineering aura and stamina were insufficient to maintain the Shikai state of Ryujin Jakka, and that last slash at Jin was his final effort.

But why was Kaido distracted just now? And twice at that.

Faced with the 6,000-degree Celsius temperature of Ryujin Jakka's Shikai, he wouldn't be as arrogant as he was when fighting King Luffy. He knew that even Haki would melt away under such intense flames.

After calming down, Kevin stood up and sheathed the Asagi.

In this battle against Kaido, it's clear that once the Flying Thunder God Technique is discovered, strong individuals will find ways to counter it. Although it remains a life-saving technique, it's becoming difficult for someone like Minato Namikaze to use it for combat speed.

In addition, physical constitution and mental strength remain major weaknesses; the Shikai of the Zanpakuto cannot be maintained for long, and only basic flames can be used.

If you unleash a burst of power, you might not even be able to stand up straight, just like Luffy had to sleep for ten minutes after using Gear Fourth in the story.

The attribute cards in the Golden Treasure Chest are not very useful and are meaningless. After Rodnaz Saint's sin value is completely drawn, we can see if we can get any constitution or bloodline type cards.

If that doesn't work, it means the treasure chest doesn't contain constitution or bloodline attributes.

After all, whether it's the Flying Thunder God Technique which requires chakra or the Zanpakuto which requires spiritual pressure, both convert blue into physical strength or spiritual energy.
