The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen

How did that bastard son suddenly become so fast?

No! Kaido suddenly realized that it wasn't his "bastard son" who had gotten faster, but rather he himself who had slowed down!

Despite the missed attack of "Kyousai no Naraku," he landed on the ground, gripping his spiked club tightly with both hands. He then swung the club from left to right, aiming at a fan-shaped area on the side, but the attack missed and he hit nothing.

"Bang!" He was hit on the back by Yamato's stick and staggered.

"Bang!" His left arm was hit by a club, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.

"Bang!" He was hit in the right leg with a stick, and he almost knelt down.

"Bang!" He got hit on the forehead with a stick.

"Bang!" He also got a whack on the butt.

What an unfilial daughter!! He was furious!

Kaido tried his best to get out of this unfavorable situation, but his movements were as slow as a snail to Yamato, and he was full of openings, so Yamato could hit him wherever he wanted.

Kaido struggled to defend himself, but he was still beaten badly. He could only cover his entire body with Conqueror's Haki and use his "Conqueror's Body" to withstand the attack while searching for an opening.

The more I thought about it, the more something seemed off. This strange deceleration was not a power from the Great Mouth True God form at all!

"You bastard son" never used this trick before.

Combining Vivi's three Devil Fruit abilities, he quickly came up with the answer.

His "bastard son" must have eaten a second Devil Fruit. He didn't know exactly what kind of fruit it was, but he was sure he had, and that the ability was disgusting!

Ask away any questions you may have. He deflected the questions from all sides and asked urgently, "Did you eat a second Devil Fruit?"

Yamato had no intention of hiding it at all, and Vivi didn't need her to hide it either. She was already the strongest in the world, so what if she knew?

Green Bull actually knew that Yamato possessed two Devil Fruit abilities, but since Green Bull was captured, this information was never revealed.

"Yes," she replied simply and directly.

Kaido asked with great hope, "How did you do that?"

Yamato looked at him with her bright, large eyes: "I won't tell you."

If it were a contest of power and stamina, Kaido might not necessarily lose if the fight continued. However, considering that the woman with the three Devil Fruits could return at any moment, and that he couldn't possibly defeat his "bastard son" in his haste, Kaido made a decisive move. Despite taking several blows from the spiked club, he transformed into a blue dragon and ran away.

Chapter 567 Crocodile's Phone Call

In Chapter 567 of the novel "The Pirate Princess Becomes King," Yamato paused, having engaged Kaido. She planned to wait for Vivi to return, after which the two could easily defeat this Yonko. She took a half-step with her left foot, then hesitated.

Yamato remembers that when she was little, Kaido was very kind to her. Although this kindness was incomparable to the kindness of a normal family, it was still a beautiful memory.

At the age of 31, in his middle age, Kaido had a daughter named Yamato. At that time, Kaido was not yet one of the Four Emperors, had not yet occupied Wano Country, and did not have Queen the Plague or Jack the Drought by his side, nor did he have Black Maria, whom Yamato had always disliked.

They were a nomadic family, father and daughter. At that time, Kaido was not exactly gentle, but he wasn't too much of a scoundrel either.

When did the father-daughter relationship begin to deteriorate? It was in Wano Country.

Yamato sighed. Kaido's muscles were still strong, and his body was still in its peak condition, but she could see very clearly that Kaido's face had many more wrinkles, and his eyes had lost their former determination. Her father had finally grown old. More than a year in prison, coupled with the blow Vivi dealt to him after his release, had caused problems with his mentality.

Yamato slung the spiked club over her shoulder, deactivated her Great Mouth True God form, and let Kaido leave.

She took out a Den Den Mushi and called Vivi: "Little Bat, I've let Kaido go."

Vivi didn't care at all. Kaido was already a defeated opponent, so let him go. After all, he was Yamato's father. It wouldn't be right to injure or kill him. Running away was the best option.

"You won't blame me, will you?" Yamato asked nervously.

"Of course I'll blame you! Letting Kaido go is a serious matter. Not only will I blame you, but I'll also punish you!"

Yamato's voice trailed off: "...Then, then don't punish me too harshly."

"You're punished by having to go back and write an essay titled 'My Fourth Emperor Father'."

Yamato's face fell: "Huh? I hate writing essays the most..."

Vivi on the other end of the Den Den Mushi snorted, and the two quickly hung up the call.

Yamato is afraid of writing essays, Robin is afraid of practicing Haki...

Yamato sighed, looked at her surroundings, and dejectedly returned to Dressrosa.

Waiting for Weiwei to come to him? Impossible! He should go to her himself...

As expected and understandable, Weiwei got lost.

Barrett was no match for him; he was down in less than three moves.

Whether due to excessive excitement or some underlying medical condition, this man, Barrett, took two punches from Vivi. As he prepared to take the third punch, he exhibited clear signs of a stroke: extreme fluctuations in blood pressure, a stiff tongue, and difficulty speaking...

Adhering to the principle of a healer's compassion, Vivi contacted the Navy and Impel Down, preparing to put him back in for treatment.

Barrett had almost lost his ability to speak, and his limbs were numb like wood. Vivi put sea stone handcuffs on him and then left him alone.

The naval soldiers knew about the former admiral's problem; they didn't even bother asking trivial questions like "Where are you?" or "Admiral, where are you?" There was no need to ask, and it was pointless anyway. They just circled a general area and went to look for him.

Little Barrett wasn't worth Vivi's worry. She was flying towards Dressrosa. Just as Yamato hung up the phone, the Den Den Mushi rang again. She looked at it and was surprised to see that it was Crocodile calling.

She didn't want to deal with Crocodile anymore, but considering how much blame she had made this guy take, she thought it over and decided to answer the phone anyway.

"What's up?" she asked bluntly, a stark contrast to her previous polite way of addressing him as "boss this" or "boss that."

For the first two seconds, only heavy and uneven breathing could be heard through the Den Den Mushi. After about five or six seconds, Crocodile's dry voice finally came through.

"Help me... I'm in serious trouble! Quick, come save me!"

The Crocodile in Den Den Mushi has a strange voice. The intonation is fine, but the voice is a bit high-pitched, and if you think about it carefully, it sounds a bit effeminate.

Is Crocodile really a woman? Vivi had seen this idea many times in her previous life, and the online analysis was quite convincing. However, based on her observations in this life, Crocodile is a pure man, and there is no trace of womanhood in him.

Before she could ask any more questions, a faint chuckle came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi, and the call was abruptly ended.

Vivi was a little confused and a slight doubt arose in her mind. However, there were too few clues. She muttered "crazy" a couple of times, put away the Den Den Mushi, found a direction that looked like Dressrosa, and flew away quickly.

Meanwhile, on a small island about thirty nautical miles from Dressrosa, the Sand Crocodile trembled all over, sweating profusely, his ten fingers piercing his palms, relying on the pain to keep him conscious, letting the blood stain the ground red, his face contorted to the extreme.

The crimson beam of light that shot into the sky from Dressrosa briefly restored Crocodile's consciousness, making him realize that something was wrong with his body. He immediately called for help, but unfortunately, Im quickly regained control of the body.

Im doesn't possess the Soul-Soul Fruit's power. The reason she was able to possess Crocodile's body is because she developed the Sand-Sand Fruit to the awakened level. With unparalleled power, she defeated and replaced the "demon" originally in the Sand-Sand Fruit. After leaving her own will in the Sand-Sand Fruit, she turned around and went to find another path, a stronger one.

Space and time were abilities she had long coveted, but unfortunately, the Time-Time Fruit was taken away by Tenzuki Toki, so she could only eat the Space-Space Fruit.

Im's true form was still in the unique space of Mary Geoise, among the flowers. A part of her consciousness, through the Sand-Sand Fruit as a bridge, attached itself to the Sand Crocodile and eventually usurped its body.

While others are Devil Fruit users wielding their abilities, Crocodile is different. Unlike the other "demons" whose consciousness is in a dormant state, Im is currently using her Devil Fruit to control Crocodile's body.

A person with ability and ability are two sides of the same coin; the stronger party can control the weaker party.

Crocodile's willpower, determination, domineering spirit, and mental strength are not weak, but he was caught off guard. After getting close to Im's true form, he became a gift that was delivered to his door.

The previous crimson pillar of light and the fall of the "demon"—the phantom of the progenitor of vampires—had a profound impact on Im's mind.

This kind of mental shock is objectively real. Ordinary people are completely unaware of it, but Im, a powerful person who once destroyed the "demon" in the Sand-Sand Fruit, can feel it. She had experienced the same scene once before. A moment of distraction gave Crocodile an opportunity. Although she quickly suppressed Crocodile's will, she estimated that some information was still leaked.

Chapter 568 Kaido's Resolve

The Pirate Princess Becomes King, Chapter 568: Kaido's Resolve. Im knows of Vivi's existence, and she believes that Vivi is unaware of her existence. Now, Vivi is hiding in the shadows, giving her an advantage in intelligence.

They have an advantage in intelligence, but not in combat strength.

Even if she were to directly confront Vivi, who has awakened her Devil Fruit powers and possesses three Devil Fruit abilities, making her arguably the strongest in the world, she wouldn't stand a chance.

My puzzle is missing a piece, the most important piece: the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Nika form!

Luffy is the person she has seen in the past 800 years who is most likely to awaken Nika's form.

As long as Nika awakens her powers within Luffy, her plan will succeed.

She needs to speed things up.

Im discerned the direction, transformed into a sandstorm, and flew southwest towards Dressrosa.

......

In a small town in the southwest, Kaido sat in a tavern, his face full of dejection. The repeated defeats had severely damaged his confidence, and at this moment he could only drink heavily, trying to numb himself with alcohol.

The patrons in the tavern were all drunk, and no one recognized him as Kaido, one of the Four Emperors of the New World.

Kaido is very sensitive right now, and he's overthinking things. He thinks this is a result of his declining power, but it has nothing to do with power. This is just a small town, a very isolated town, with a few drunkards who have no idea what the Four Emperors are.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"What? What is it?"

"I heard from the old pirates in town that someone in Dressrosa has awakened their Devil Fruit!"

"Really? That's terrifying!"

Kaido put down his wine bowl, turned around slowly, and glanced around with a sidelong look.

How many Devil Fruits are there in the entire world? How many people are there in the world? In this world with extremely limited communication channels, 99.999% of people don't even know what a Devil Fruit is, yet random passersby can discuss Devil Fruit awakening? Is your town called Mary Geoise? Do you think I'm stupid?!

Kaido felt that someone was playing a trick on him, but after searching around with his Observation Haki, he didn't see anything unusual.

Since there were enemies, he couldn't just drink so carelessly anymore. He swung his spiked club and, without saying a word, demolished the tavern. The ceiling flew a hundred meters away, and the tavern walls were riddled with holes of varying sizes. On the ground, wine and blood mingled together, and several passersby who were discussing the awakening of Devil Fruits all fell into pools of blood, dying swiftly and without any ripples.

The bartender and the customers, more than ten people in total, all died.

The town was in chaos, so Kaido found a clean spot and continued drinking.

While drinking, his mind involuntarily began to wander: Devil Fruit awakening? Perhaps this was also a path to becoming stronger?

As one of the Four Emperors and a renowned teacher in the pirate world, he naturally knew about Devil Fruit awakening, and he also knew many details that ordinary pirates simply did not know.

In a daze, he seemed to return to 38 years ago, when a group of great pirates from the Rocks Pirates hijacked a World Government warship and found a Devil Fruit called Zoan-type Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Azure Dragon form in the ship's safe.

At just 18 years old, Kaido, still an apprentice on the ship, was full of anticipation for Devil Fruits, especially Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits, believing that as long as he ate this Devil Fruit, he could become a superior person.

He put a lot of thought into getting his hands on the Devil Fruit, but the members of the Rocks Pirates were all monsters, the strongest who had fought their way out of conspiracies and tricks, and he was too naive at that time.

Taking advantage of a pirate crew's party, he tried to steal a Devil Fruit, but naturally, he was caught red-handed by Rocks.

A group of great pirates were laughing at him.
