One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

Kaido had an excited smile on his face: "The power is not bad, but... the purity of Haki is still too low!"

purity?

Caesar's eyelids twitched slightly.

So you are Fan Makaidorou?

Before he could think about it, the next moment, Kaido's huge body, several meters tall, suddenly leaped up, raised the Eight Rings high above his head, and smashed heavily towards Caesar!

"Jiang Sanshi·Yinnaraku!!"

Seeing this, Caesar was about to dodge, but suddenly a sense of threat surged in his heart.

Is the future predicted?

Realizing something was wrong, Caesar planted his legs firmly, took a deep breath and punched.

It was still a fist filled with dual-colored domineering aura, but unlike the previous confrontation, in just a moment, Caesar felt the suppression of power.

No, it is not the power that is suppressed.

It’s domineering!

Whether it is the domineering color or the armed color, they are all completely suppressed!

If the strength of my domineering is wood, then the strength of Kaido is steel!

Realizing this, Caesar slightly turned sideways, used the force to dodge and fly out, rolled a few times in the air to release the force, and flapped his wings to stabilize his body.

"What a slippery fellow..."

Kaido snorted coldly when he saw this, seeming very dissatisfied with Caesar's evasive behavior.

Caesar said nothing, but looked at his fist thoughtfully. Then he suddenly looked at Kaido: "Mr. Kaido, is the only state of advancement of Armament Haki the Flowing state?"

"Oh?"

Kaido picked up his mace with great interest. "Boy, have you ever heard of someone who can read minds? Such people are the favorites of Observation Haki, born with a meticulous observation Haki. Although the use of Armament Haki is stereotyped, there are indeed some who can figure out some unconventional uses. What do you think?"

Caesar didn't say anything, but continued to activate his Armament Haki.

Let it gather and flow in your fist.

And then...speed up and rub!

This is based on the usage of chakra in the neighboring village. It is the method that Uzumaki Naruto used when he was practicing the wind attribute chakra.

Since domineering aura can flow, it should also be able to rub, right?

However, the prerequisite is that the Armament Haki needs to be divided into two parts.

No, maybe it's not necessary to go through so much trouble. After all, there is also Conqueror's Haki...

But whether it is dividing the armament color or controlling two types of domineering with high precision at the same time, the difficulty is far greater than the single armament release.

After a brief attempt, Caesar found that his current control over domineering power was not enough to support him in completing this idea.

Moreover, the speed at which the domineering aura is consumed is terrifying, several times more than the previous amount.

But fortunately, he did not gain nothing. Just when the two domineering auras were rubbing against each other, Caesar vaguely felt that the strength of his armament color seemed to have increased slightly!

In other words, it is indeed possible to enhance the armament color through friction.

So is there any other way?

What about compression?

"Hey, kid..."

Caesar was lost in thought when a shadow suddenly fell over his head.

Kaido appeared before him at some point, stepping on a cloud of flames, his face dark. "How dare you get distracted while fighting me? Who gave you the courage?"

Caesar laughed and said, "Sorry, I just had some inspiration. Let's stop here for today."

"What are you thinking, idiot!"

Kaido sneered and slammed the mace down heavily. "No matter what you think, fighting is always the best catalyst for growth! Since you dare to punch me, fight me to the last moment!"

“Thunder——Gossip!!”

Chapter 18-Awakening

Rumbling--

A violent collision of domineering colors.

In the wilderness, a giant dragon bathed in thunder soared into the sky.

As soon as he opened his mouth, countless wind blades blew towards Caesar!

"Bad wind!"

"Lanjiao!"

Seeing this, Caesar suddenly raised his legs and kicked out dozens of times.

However, the wind blade came too fast, like a heavy rain, and instantly obliterated Caesar's kick.

Noticing this, Caesar spread his wings wide behind him, and his body suddenly spun. His wings cut through the air, bringing out a dazzling and huge slash.

The huge slash collided with the wind blade, and then melted into each other.

Without giving Caesar any time to breathe, a dazzling white light suddenly broke through the wind barrier and attacked Caesar at a terrifying supersonic speed!

"King Kong Dysprosium!"

"Is it the stick again..."

Caesar's eyelids twitched and he raised his fist to resist.

镝…

Yamato's whistling arrow move should be learned from this, right?

boom--

With one punch, Caesar broke the stick's energy and flew backwards to relieve the force.

Kaido is right, fighting is indeed the best catalyst for growth.

Caesar could clearly feel that his armament color became purer and purer with each urgent punch, just like forged steel.

Or perhaps it was not his armament Haki that changed, but his use of it that became more skillful and comfortable.

In the words of the chakra people in the next village, it is equivalent to the control training like climbing a tree and treading water, using less domineering energy to launch more powerful attacks.

Come and don't go indecent.

After a brief distance, Caesar suddenly raised his hand and made a shooting gesture.

Scarlet gathered, and several blood bullets shot out with domineering aura. The bullets cut through the air with a sharp whistle, and were blown up by Kaido's stick.

"You insidious little brat! Even I would feel pain if you hit me with such force!"

Kaido laughed loudly and said something sinister, but in his heart he admired Caesar's fighting style.

Strength is the biggest factor he uses to measure a person's value!

Caesar was slightly out of breath. The battle of this intensity had lasted for more than two hours. He felt that his domineering aura was almost exhausted, but Kaido still looked full of energy and did not seem tired at all.

This is also Kaido’s most difficult point - endurance!

In the original work, Kaido started out by fighting against the Nine Red Scabbards, then teamed up with Big Mom to fight against the supernovas, then fought against Luffy alone, and then fought against Yamato...

Then Luffy and Yamato teamed up, and then he defeated Luffy alone again, and finally was defeated by Gear Fifth Luffy.

He even used the flame cloud to support the ghost island in the middle of the journey. He was simply a tireless physical monster!

It is said that in the world of pirates, monsters with average physical strength can easily fight for days and nights, but that does not take into account the factor of domineering. Without considering domineering, Caesar can also beat him for days and nights.

It is not difficult to see from the original plot that even a physical monster like Kaido can only last for one night at most in such a high-intensity and domineering battle.

The current state is obviously far from reaching Kaido's limit!

Even this guy has not even shown his strongest human-beast form except for a few times of transforming into beast form, and has always maintained his human form!

“The gap is quite big…”

Caesar forced a smile.

"Ahhhhh... Of course!"

Kaido smiled upon hearing this and said, "You are already quite good. There are not many people in the world today who are qualified to fight me to this extent. If it weren't for the fact that you haven't been able to foresee the future and your Haki is still a little immature, you would be even more difficult to deal with than Jin."

"There are so many ifs."

Licking his dry lips, Caesar chuckled and said, "How does your strength compare to the other Four Emperors?"

"There is no doubt that I am the strongest!"

Kaido smiled grimly: "That old fellow Whitebeard is the only one who can threaten my life, but he is old and weak, and can't sustain a long battle. That woman Lingling is the most terrifying person with talent I have ever seen, but unfortunately she does not cherish her talent, and her strength has long been reduced."

"As for that red-haired brat... his Haki and swordsmanship are quite good, though he's still a little green. But in two years, he'll probably become the most troublesome of these people. The outcome will be the same!"

"You are so confident..."

Caesar chuckled, probably realizing the gap between himself and the other party.

And according to what Kaido said, although the four emperors are at the same level of strength, they all have their own focus. It is not like the debate among One Piece fans about the strength of the general emperor, where they have to argue to come to a conclusion.

It is meaningless to simply compare strength and weakness, and many practical factors must be considered.

For example, when Garp beat up Aokiji and Black Pirates on Beehive Island, Garp was really excited.

Then he was stabbed by Xilu again and captured alive by the Black Group. Kahei smiled.

Does this mean that Garp is not strong?

So strong, so ridiculously strong!

He started with a fist bone impact, which had the same effect as Luffy's fourth gear ultimate move, the Great Ape King Spear.

But as Master Ye said, every master has his own strengths and weaknesses. Strong men like Garp, Shanks, and Hawkeye obviously don't rely on their physical strength to make a living.

Kaido cannot compete with Kizaru in speed, nor can he compete with Whitebeard and Akainu in terms of large-scale damage, but in terms of physical strength, he can definitely be ranked in the top two among this group of generals!

"I think you've almost reached your limit..."

Kaido rushed towards Caesar: "Come on, one last blow! Don't die, kid!"

The mace wrapped in domineering color swept across the waist, and Caesar gritted his teeth and punched again!

"Great Weed Thunder Gossip!!"

Bang!

The fist and the mace collided in the air, and Caesar felt an irresistible force coming at him. He flew out uncontrollably, smashing dozens of tall trees in a row and then deeply embedded in a huge rock.

"puff…"

Caesar's lungs shook, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his throat. His bones shattered briefly, but then recovered rapidly under the action of vitality, becoming even harder and tougher!

"Ok?"

Kaido looked at Caesar in surprise: "What a tenacious vitality, worthy of being a vampire."

"do not fight!"

Caesar stood up from the pit, took out a small white flag and waved it, then turned around and flew unsteadily towards the Flower City.

Just now, my adrenaline was so high during the battle that I didn’t feel anything, and I even felt a little excited.

However, the pain just now caused his internal organs to tremble, and spread along his back to the entire cerebral cortex, which woke him up on the spot.

Kaido did not stop him when he saw this. He had already had enough fun fighting today. Caesar's dominance had reached its limit. Fighting again would just be a pure bullying game. It was meaningless. He immediately turned into a dragon and flew away.

Unlike Roger and Whitebeard, Kaido is a result-oriented hero.

Just like the battle with Oden, Kurozumi Kurasaki used underhanded tactics to cause Oden's defeat, and Kaido's victory was unfair, but no one said anything. After all, in addition to being a warrior, he is also the leader of all beasts.

However, out of respect for his opponent, he still killed Kurozumi Kurasaki, even bandaged Oden's wounds, and allowed Oden's wife to go to the prison to find him.

The meaning is very clear. My victory was unfair, so I give you a chance and we can start over again!

But you, Kozuki Oden, were stupid enough to be deceived by Orochi and jumped into the frying pan to seek death, so you can’t blame me!
