One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

"The clearing operation was quite effective."

Kane looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Hmph, a bunch of idiots." Foz-Foe glanced disdainfully at the pirates lying on the ground.

He deliberately refrained from making a move just now so that these cannon fodder could test the waters.

The test was successful, but the result was alarming.

"Powerful defenses, coupled with the ability to manipulate celestial phenomena for large-scale destructive strikes..."

Foz-Foe's gaze swept over the enormous dragon in the sky with a mixture of envy and apprehension.

Mythical Zoan species, they really are all monsters!

but……

still have a chance!

However, let them go anyway.

Foz-Follow's gaze, sharp as a viper, stealthily shifted to Jack, Rumi, Sasaki, and the others who were also standing beside him.

The pirates who attacked earlier were just extras; the rest were his real opponents.

Coincidentally, Sasaki and the others also had their eyes gleaming, harboring the same thoughts.

Before fully understanding Kane's true intentions, no one dared to make the first move, fearing they would be doing someone else a favor.

For a moment, the scene froze.

"Hmph, a bunch of cowards."

Jack, wielding two enormous curved swords, was the first to break the suffocating silence.

He let out a sneer, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit, and his massive body instantly swelled and deformed, transforming into an orc form.

With a powerful stomp of his thick legs, Jack shattered the ground beneath his feet and shot into the air like a cannonball!

"Break open for me!!"

While suspended in mid-air, Jack's arms became afterimages.

Two massive scimitars, wreathed in jet-black armor color, slashed furiously at the same point on Kane's dragon body with a piercing shriek that tore through the air.

It hurts, it hurts so much!

Kane's pupils contracted sharply; he could clearly feel his skin being pierced bit by bit.

He truly deserves to be called a genius boy of the Beasts Pirates.

Kane sighed inwardly.

At only eighteen years old, Jack, with his fish-man bloodline and the Ancient Zoan Mammoth Fruit, is probably only second to King and Queen in terms of overall strength.

If he hadn't suddenly appeared out of nowhere, Jack would probably have become one of the big names in the show before long.

We can't keep pushing through this!

In the blink of an eye, Kane's massive dragon body began to shrink, instantly switching into a more agile orc form, better suited for close combat.

While clearing the field in beast form is satisfying, it makes you a sitting duck in one-on-one combat.

"Just to my liking."

Seeing Kane voluntarily shrink his size, Jack's eyes lit up, and he transformed into a mammoth covered in long fur with fangs like spears.

He sprinted to Kane and raised his thick, elephant-like trunk high.

"it's over!"

"Elephant Trunk Strike!"

The pitch-black elephant trunk, stained with Armament Haki, ripped through the sky and crashed down heavily towards Kane.

This powerful strike even compressed the air so hard that it left a visible white shockwave behind it.

boom!

The attack, a combination of superhuman strength and Armament Haki, landed squarely on Kane, who had just completed his transformation.

An unimaginable, terrifying impact erupted instantly; Kane felt as if he had been struck head-on by a high-speed warship.

Like a kite with a broken string, he transformed into a blurry afterimage and shot backward at a terrifying speed!

Bang!

A dull thud rang out as Kane's body slammed into a rock wall.

Smoke and dust filled the air, completely engulfing his figure.

At the skull's eyes.

Quinn shook his head: "That kid lost. Jack's attack is not something an ordinary person can withstand."

Jin sneered, "Fool, use your Observation Haki to take a good look."

"Who are you calling an idiot! You twisted psychopath who loves to interrogate people. Even if my IQ were reduced by a hundred, I'd still be a genius!"

Quinn, having hit her sweet spot, then went on to bestow a long list of self-proclaimed titles.

Phrases like "MADS's second-best scientist after Vegapunk," "the pinnacle of body modification," and "the culmination of biological weapons" are used to describe him.

Below the skull.

"Damn it, that bastard Jack beat me to it."

A cute girl with long blue and pink hair widened her eyes and angrily shouted, "I haven't settled the score with that guy for my brother yet!"

In the thunderstorm just now, Page One, the youngest and weakest, was seriously injured.

If he hadn't been an Ancient Spinosaurus user, he probably would have been one of the fallen pirates.

The purple-haired boy wearing a black and white mask tugged at Runti and whispered, "Sister, let's not get into a conflict with Brother Jack."

It's not that he's afraid of straining relations; brawls between members of the Beasts Pirates are very common. As long as it's not a sneak attack, Kaido won't interfere at all, and Jack is even more enthusiastic about it.

The problem is, the older sister is no match for Jack.

Even with him added, it was still very difficult for the two siblings to work together.

Why make things difficult for yourself?

"Little Pei, I'll listen to whatever you say." Runti wrapped her arms around Peijiwan's neck and rubbed her cheeks against his face affectionately, even a little roughly.

"It hurts, it hurts~ Be gentle, be gentle..." Peggy was on the verge of tears.

"In that case, our next opponent will be each other."

Foz Frey chuckled sinisterly, "Sasagi, how about we team up and take them out first?"

"Just to my liking."

Sasaki, who was slightly overweight and had two horns on his head, was perfectly fine. He greedily scanned the room and regarded Runti and her brother as his prey.

"Huh?! You want to fight?!"

Runti instantly switched from "brother-obsessed" mode to a furious state.

As an Ancient Species Pachycephalosaurus user, she transformed into her beast-man form and defiantly shouted, "I'm going to smash all of you bastards into the ground with my headbutt!!"

Page One followed closely behind, entering his Spinosaurus form, standing shoulder to shoulder with his sister, glaring at Sasaki and Foz F.

The siblings were able to survive in the Beasts Pirates' dog-eat-dog world by fighting hard and being united.

However, the four who were caught up in their infighting failed to notice that Jack, who was standing with his back to them, remained on high alert.

slam-la-

As the rubble tumbled down, a dragon claw suddenly emerged from the ruins and gripped the rock face.

"Wow, that was really powerful."

Kane slowly rose from the dust-filled ruins, shaking his slightly dizzy head as rubble fell down.

He leaned against the rock wall with one hand and clutched his chest with the other, where, in addition to the blow from Jack's elephant trunk, there were also wounds inflicted by the curved blade earlier.

It's shocking.

Just a few minutes later, the gruesome knife wound had stopped bleeding, and the dull pain in his chest subsided quickly like a receding tide.

Kane looked up into the distance and grinned excitedly.

"Jack...it's my turn!"

Chapter 5, the battle for the Grand Signboard, has ended.

Kane moved, switching back into his beast form, and a giant dragon soared into the sky.

Although Kane really wanted to have a manly brawl with Jack, the collision he just experienced made him realize the reality.

Having not yet mastered Haki and without combat training, he would definitely be no match for Jack, or even Who's-Who, in close combat.

Since that's the case, we'll have to resort to our ultimate weapon.

"Huh, that guy is still alive?" Runti ignored the internal strife and looked up at Kane, who was flying higher and higher.

Foz-Foe sensed something was wrong. Although he didn't know what Kane was planning to do, he didn't think Kane was planning to run away.

"Quickly, join me in this!"

Foz Fur drew his sword, aimed it at Kane, and unleashed a series of flying slashes in an attempt to intercept him.

Sasagi followed suit.

But the two were clearly too slow, and before long, Kane had completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

At the skull's eyes.

King calmly asked, "Mr. Kaido, should I intercept him?"

Kaido waved his hand and his voice boomed, "No need! A coward who runs away in the face of battle is not worthy of being my top lieutenant!"

the other side.

Kane noticed the slash coming from the ground, but didn't take it seriously.
