One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

The two frowned slightly, a vague sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.

Soon, an emergency communication from the monitoring room confirmed this premonition.

"Admiral Kizaru! The intruder is... it's 'Calamity' Kane!"

The voice on the other end of the Den Den Mushi trembled violently with extreme panic.

"what?"

Kizaru's lazy gaze instantly sharpened: "Where is he now?"

"No, I don't know the exact route! After Kane broke in from the east, he's been violently pushing westward in a straight line!"

The guard had barely finished speaking when he suddenly screamed excitedly, "Wait! He's about to pass by your combat testing ground!"

"What?!"

Everyone present was taken aback upon hearing this.

Almost the instant they processed this information—

boom!!!

A loud bang suddenly exploded!

The specially designed wall, which even the pacifists' lasers had previously failed to budge, was now smashed open like cardboard by a giant hammer, leaving a jagged hole in its edge!

A dark shadow, accompanied by smoke and debris, shot out of the cave!

Several lieutenant generals in the front positions had no time to react. They felt an irresistible, violent force crashing down on them, and they were sent flying into the air like kites with broken strings.

The dark figure continued its momentum, and it looked as if it was about to crash through the opposite wall and escape.

"I can't let you leave like this."

Kuzan's voice carried his usual languidness, but his movements were as fast as lightning.

He raised his right arm, and astonishing freezing air transformed into a pale shockwave that surged forth!

"Frozen time capsule!"

The freezing air that was aimed at the shadowy figure's heart was blocked by the opponent's palm. The extreme cold power spread instantly, freezing his entire arm and part of his torso in a thick layer of ice.

"Kane, are you in such a hurry to leave without even saying goodbye?" Kuzan lowered his hand and said slowly.

Almost at the same moment Kuzan made his move, a dazzling golden flash appeared behind Kane as if by teleportation, forming a perfect pincer attack.

Gion and Kake reacted instantly, spreading out to the left and right, their fierce aura blocking the other two directions.

An encirclement consisting of two admirals and two admiral candidates quickly took shape in the blink of an eye.

"Oh my, oh my, it's you guys."

"Admiral Kizaru, Admiral Aokiji, and Vice Admiral Gion, what a grand welcoming ceremony!"

Faced with this impressive blockade, Kane simply greeted them calmly, his tone as relaxed as if he were bumping into an acquaintance on the street.

With a gentle flick of his right arm, the solid ice covering it cracked under the weight, crumbling to the ground and revealing his unharmed body.

Kane casually brushed off non-existent dust from his shoulders, glancing at the lieutenant generals who had just landed and were groaning in pain.

A mocking, bright smile spread across his face: "Oh~ so those who were just knocked down were several lieutenant generals. I'm so sorry, I thought it was a speed bump."

"Enough with the nonsense! Kane, today is the day you are defeated and captured!"

Gion drew his famous sword, Kinpira, with a clang, its tip pointing at Kane, his eyes sharp.

New and old grudges surged in her heart, and she was determined to settle them here today.

"is it?"

I don't think so.

Kane chuckled lightly, seemingly unconcerned as he turned his gaze to the pacifists and seraphim who were closing in on him at Shakyamuni's command.

Because Kuma was absent from the Seven Warlords of the Sea, did they instead use Edward Weevil as the model?

That would be suitable.

However, what attracted him most were those small seraphim with black wings on their backs.

Click~

Kane pulled a video Den Den Mushi from his pocket, skillfully adjusted the angle towards the group of Seraphim, and pressed the shutter.

"Hmm~ Perfect angle."

Kane smiled slightly: "I didn't expect Mihawk to be so cute as a child."

The thought of printing this photo into a book and presenting it to the world's greatest swordsman in person made Kane tremble with excitement.

He could enjoy this kind of fun for the rest of his life!

"You bastard...!"

Seeing Kane remain so oblivious despite being surrounded, Gion gritted her teeth, her knuckles turning white from gripping the knife so tightly.

With so many powerful figures here, how dare they ignore them?

She looked eagerly at Kuzan and Borsalino, waiting for the general's command.

"Kane, it would be better if you stayed and explained yourself."

With his hands in his pockets, Kizaru spoke slowly and deliberately, but his gaze behind his glasses gradually became serious: "If things go too far, this old man will have a real headache."

"Difficult to handle?" Kane raised an eyebrow, then suddenly grinned. "Then let's not do it!"

Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, he directly sent an offer to Kizaru: "How about switching sides and joining my Beasts Pirates? Excellent benefits."

"Hmm~ then let's skip it."

Kizaru rubbed his chin and shrugged, saying, "I've never thought about working for pirates."

There's a first time for everything.

Kane surveyed the room meaningfully, "Besides, are pirates and the government... really that clearly separated?"

"Looks like we can't reach an agreement."

Kizaru was unusually silent for a moment, then said nothing more, clasping his hands together in front of his chest, golden light shooting from his fingertips.

"The Eight-Span Curved Jewel!!"

A barrage of dazzling light projectiles rained down, instantly commencing the siege!

"Ice Cube - Tyrannosaurus Beak!"

Kuzan attacked almost simultaneously, and a giant ice bird formed from the chilling freezing air swooped out with a cry!

"Six Styles Secret Technique: Finger Pistol - Pig Thrust!"

Jiaji suddenly thrust out his finger, and a shockwave in the form of a wild boar shot out.

"A Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom - A Stunning Sight!"

The swords of Gion flashed like blooming flowers, attacking from all directions!

That wasn't all. Under Shakyamuni's command, seven Seraphim and ten Pacifistas also launched an attack on Kane simultaneously.

In a mere instant, a dazzling yet deadly storm of attacks completely engulfed Kane.

A deafening explosion and blinding light engulfed the entire test site.

"Did it hit?!"

Gion stared intently at the billowing smoke and turbulent energy flow. According to his Observation Haki, Kane's presence had not moved an inch.

"Tch~ The newspapers make it sound amazing, but it's nothing special in the end."

Jiaji whistled, a frivolous smile appearing on his face.

But he didn't notice that Kuzan and Borsalino's faces showed no sign of relaxation; on the contrary, they became even more serious.

The next second, Kane's calm, even somewhat languid voice came from the center of the still-lingering smoke and dust.

"Your moves are powerful; I approve of you all."

A strong wind swept through, and the smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

The moment they saw what was inside, everyone's breath caught in their throats.

"How...how is this possible..."

Gion's pupils constricted, and he murmured incoherently.

"This shouldn't be happening... Why did this happen?!"

Jiaji was tearing at his hair, his face filled with incomprehensible shock.

At the heart of the battle, Kane remained standing in place, even maintaining a relaxed posture with his hands in his pockets.

Not only was he completely unharmed, but even his clothes were not damaged in the slightest.

Looking at Kane, whose body shimmered with a faint light as if he were encased in a layer of crystal armor, Kuzan's brows furrowed deeply.

An extremely ominous premonition arose spontaneously from the bottom of my heart.

Is it this peculiar state that is at work?

Otherwise, it's simply inexplicable...

Facing the combined attack of two generals, two general candidates, and seven Seraphim and ten Pacifistas, they remained unscathed.

This has exceeded the limits of his understanding of defensive capabilities.

Let alone Kaido, even Charlotte Linlin, who is known as the "Iron Balloon," could never have done this!

Kane can only say: This is... the power of mechanics!

"Alright, that's enough chit-chat. I'll be going now."

Kane doesn't have the bad habit of explaining his abilities in detail to his enemies.

Taking advantage of their momentary daze, he swayed slightly and transformed into a blurry afterimage, charging once again in the predetermined direction!

"Stop him!"

Kuzan and Borsalino made their moves almost simultaneously.
