Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

“When I got closer, I saw it was really big~”

Osi took a few steps forward to the dragon's head and gestured up and down, only to find that his small body was only as big as one of the dragon's teeth.

"Sister La, didn't you say it was still alive? Why is it lying there motionless, like a dead fish?"

"Osi, be careful, don't get so close!" La stepped forward and pulled Osi, who was about to poke him, behind him and warned him.

It has to be said that La's vigilance was correct. The next second after she finished speaking, the dragon's body suddenly began to emit light, and a strong impact burst out, stirring up a cloud of smoke and dust around.

Upon seeing this, La immediately protected the two little ones behind him and then used his divine power to condense a barrier in front of him, staring intently at the center of the light.

A huge hand slapped down in the smoke and dust, causing another earth-shaking movement.

Then a huge human-shaped figure stood up from the deep pit. The figure seemed to cover the sky and completely enveloped the three little ones.

"Damn, my head hurts...but I'm not dead~"

The huge figure rubbed his head, then looked down at the three little ones and said:

"Hey! You three little brats, you were the ones who attacked me just now, right? You did a great job! Ulla-la-la-la!"

The strange laughter made Osi and Obei feel dizzy.

When the smoke and dust completely cleared, the humanoid creature gradually revealed its true appearance—a young man with a pair of huge curved horns on his head, wearing a sleeveless jacket, carrying a pitch-black mace on his shoulder, and a lacquered red wine gourd hanging from his waist. Judging from his face, he could stop the crying of adults at night...

The two little ones opened their mouths wide, looking at the two-story-high monster in front of them in disbelief.

“He really has become a different person, this is too high!

"Dragon language? It's so penetrating!" Ossi said, releasing his covered ears.

"Probably not. It sounds a bit like Japanese to me." Ou Bei shook his head in response.

"This is Japanese. It looks like this is most likely the world of an anime."

Seeing that the other person's appearance was obviously not that of a normal person but he spoke fluent Japanese, La had some guesses.

"Sister La, do you understand Japanese?" Osi seemed surprised.

"I don't understand. I'm just comparing and translating lines from Japanese movies and TV shows I've watched before. I can also roughly sense the emotions of other creatures."

That's right, La is now relying on the super memory of this body, using a series of Japanese works he has read in the past as a vocabulary library, and translating the other person's words in real time as if he was holding an electronic dictionary.

"But there's some trouble now. The other side seems to be asking if we attacked him."

Realizing the intentions of the dangerous creature before him, La apologized awkwardly in Japanese:

"We are deeply sorry for this."

Kaido looked at La who was speaking incoherently about his apology, frowned and interrupted impatiently:

"Since you admit that you attacked me, I'll give you three choices—either join me, defeat me, or... die here!"

Kaido swung his mace, creating a huge crack in his side.

Faced with three little girls who couldn't even speak clearly, the powerful man chose to commit fraud, using intimidation, coercion and inducement, which is the standard tactic in the industry.

This world is not gentle at all.

……

PS: In 1491, Kaido was only 27 years old. At this time, he was actually a handsome young man with a very good temperament. And a few years later, before the invasion of Wano Country, Kai's appearance was even more amazing, and he was a handsome uncle with great charm.

Chapter 14 The Selfish Sun

[There's no room for maneuver, huh? I never thought I'd encounter something like this on my second day in this world. This is troublesome.]

After understanding the meaning of the other party's words, La felt a little tricky.

The other party obviously has no intention of giving up, and I don't want to choose any of these three options.

Join each other?

Judging from the way they are doing, they are probably not a formal organization. Besides, what’s the point of inviting these three obviously underage kids?

She couldn't think of any other reason other than human trafficking.

Reject the other party?

To be honest, my intuition tells me that it will be difficult to beat the opponent.

No matter how powerful the phantom gods were, Ra, who had only been born a day earlier, couldn't fully control their power, and he also had to consider the safety of Osi and Obei...

[Now we can only pretend to be accommodating and then make long-term plans...]

"Sister La, what did that big guy say?" Osi quietly tugged at La's sleeve, interrupting her thoughts.

"He said we either join the other organization or beat him here."

"Don't agree to him, sister!" Hearing this, Ou Bei hurriedly stopped her.

"This guy is obviously not a good person. Once we reach his territory, it will be difficult for us to resist! Now that the three of us have joined forces, we may be able to defeat him."

"That's right! Sister La, we can't give the initiative to the enemy!" Osi also stood with Obei.

"Hey! What are you three talking about? Give me a choice now, join me or die here!" Kaido, who didn't understand Chinese, began to urge impatiently.

"Sister, give it a try!" Without the need for translation, Osi and Obei both sensed each other's impatience.

La didn't respond, but just looked carefully at Ossi and Obe's faces.

Although the two childish faces looked firm and resolute at the moment, there was no doubt that they had made up their minds.

But La also knew that with the power that Osi and Obe could currently exert, joining the battle would not only not increase the chances of winning, but might instead divert his own energy.

With the strength of the dragon man on the opposite side, even if Osi and the others' physical strength has reached a level that was previously unattainable, they are very likely to lose their lives under the opponent's attack.

The silence was brief, and her frown softened, a sign of a firm resolve. Nodding to Osei and the others, she turned to Kaido and said,

"My sisters, please let me go. I will fight you alone."

The two little ones who didn't understand what La said also took a step forward and stood beside La.

"Fighting me alone?! Ulla, lla, lla~ What an interesting kid! Sure enough, that aura I felt back then was you!"

Kaido burst into laughter upon hearing this, and a tremendous momentum surged out from him, turning into tangible pressure that even dispersed the clouds above his head.

Conqueror's Haki - the most domineering aura that can only be bred by a king who is superior to countless mortals, bursts out from Kaido at this moment!

In La's eyes, the other party seemed to have turned into a world-devouring dragon, roaring at them ferociously!

"Okay! Then it's as you wish! Don't let me down, little brat!"

"W-what?! This is... dizzy."

The sudden impact of the domineering aura made Osi and Obei a little unstable. Their souls, which had just experienced separation, were still unstable. After shaking for a while, the two of them couldn't hold on and fainted.

But this scene had a different evaluation in Kaido's eyes.

[These little devils are really not simple!]

Even though he was releasing his domineering aura without reservation, the two little kids didn't faint immediately before they could finish their words. This was completely beyond his expectations.

Generally speaking, Kaido's domineering aura can even stun some junior officers of the navy, and eight or nine-year-old girls like Osi and Oubey can probably be scared to death by just one look from him.

Kaido looked at La in front of the two of them again. Except for his long golden hair being blown away, there was no other change. He didn't even blink, as if his domineering aura had no effect on the other party at all.

Seeing the other party's calm expression, Kaido's eyes became brighter, and his gaze at the other two people who fainted on the ground became more eager.

If his body hadn't instinctively sensed a real threat from the blond kid in front of him, he would have taken all three of them away without wasting any breath on any threats.

It doesn’t matter whether the forced melon is sweet or not, as long as it quenches your thirst, your pirate group is short of people right now.

Weiwei stepped forward to block Kaidou's view, and pointed behind him and said, "To the south of the island, the battle will be between you and me."

After saying that, she glanced at Osi and Ouba who were lying unconscious on the ground. Kaido's domineering attack saved her the trouble of knocking them out herself.

With a wave of his hand, a circular flame barrier condensed around the two of them, isolating them from everything outside, and La signaled Kaido to follow him.

Kaido took a look at the golden barrier and followed La's small figure without asking any questions.

……

On the south side of the nameless island, two figures, one big and one small, stood facing each other.

"Kid, what's your name?" Kaido did not rush to attack, but asked the other party's name first.

"Ra."

La Pingjing replied calmly, her voice smooth, but the divine power in her body was already boiling and ready to go, she was ready to take action at any time.

[The whole person's aura has changed, this brat!] Kaido keenly sensed the change in Ra, and his heart was also awed.

"My name is Kaido! I'm the man who will overturn this world! I'll give you one more chance, join me!"

[Hmm? Turn the world upside down…]

The information revealed in Kaido's words was somewhat beyond La's expectations.

It seems my previous guess was wrong. While the guy opposite doesn't look like a good person, he's also unlikely to be a child kidnapper or human trafficker. And the name Kaido...

Momentum cannot deceive, and lies cannot deceive the present. The domineering aura that Kaido just exuded is definitely not something that a thief who kidnaps children can have.

[Ambitious person...]

"Yes, if you can beat me."

Feeling confident and relaxed, La resumed his smile and repeated Kaido's previous words to him.

After roughly determining that the other party might be attracted by his strength rather than anything else, La gave up the idea of ​​dying together with the other party and instead chose to temporarily join the other party.

What she needs to do now is to show her strength to increase her importance in the other party's heart. Of course, if there is a chance to kill the other party in battle, she will not hesitate.

Although he knew that the other party was not a good person, La did not have any righteous obsession and would not say that he would rather die than associate with evil people.

For now, Ossi and Obei come first.

As an outsider, and after only a short day, La was unable to establish a sense of belonging to the world beneath her feet. The indifference brought by divinity also made it difficult for her to develop a sense of belonging to a strange world.

In fact, if Ra hadn't sensed that it was difficult to defeat Kaido, he would have killed him without hesitation the moment Kaido threatened Ossi and the others, just like he killed the two chicken-like creatures without any mercy.

Sure enough, once it has emotions, even the sun will become selfish...

Chapter 15 The Sun and History

"Woo-la-la-la-la~ Great! Then let me show you my power!"

Kaido did not underestimate the person in front of him just because he was a child. After getting the other party's answer, he took the lead in swinging a stick at La's head. The speed was so fast that he even easily created a sonic boom.

In response, La just turned her head slightly to avoid the attack, and the delayed gust of wind blew her long golden hair to the other side.

"Observation Haki? Not bad!" Kaido couldn't help but praise this clean and neat evasive move.

However, it was not the case. Ra simply used his super dynamic vision and reflexes to predict Kaido's attack trajectory in advance.

The body incarnated by the god naturally has performance that matches it.

Kaido's attack did not stop, but continued one after another, each one faster than the last!

The area in front of it was soon enveloped by exploding air and invisible strong winds, and any creature that approached would be strangled to death!

My vision alone is starting to fail me, and my space is shrinking... This guy, despite being so massive, attacks so swiftly and meticulously.

La, who was in the attack circle, realized that the situation was not good and decisively gave up dodging. He quickly gathered divine power in his left hand and turned it into a long obelisk. Then he raised his wrist like swinging a sword and gently slashed upwards to meet Kaido's mace that was pressing down.

The obelisk was as delicate as jade, emitting golden fluorescence from within, and countless ancient characters faintly flickering on its surface in the divine fire—this was a high-density, ultra-high-temperature weapon formed by compressing Ra's divine power.

The tip of the mace vaporized and sublimated the moment it touched the obelisk. Kaido reacted quickly, pausing to withdraw his weapon and retreating.

"Was that flame just now?! Could it be the Nature-type Flame-Flame Fruit? No, she didn't transform into an element to dodge my attack. Is it a Parahuman-type...?"

After rejecting the natural option in his mind, Kaido thought about the protective barrier that the other party had just set up, and he had some vague guesses in his mind.

Looking at the mace with a section missing from the front end, and then looking at the golden obelisk in the opponent's hand that easily distorted the surrounding air, Kaido did not continue to move forward. Instead, he transformed himself into a giant dragon hundreds of meters long, and with his huge body rolled over, he climbed up to the sky again.

This time there were no clouds blocking his view, and La could easily see the entire huge body of the other party.

The blue-green dragon scales shone with a faint cold light under the refraction of the sunlight, the ferocious dragon claws seemed to be able to split mountains and rocks easily, the long dragon whiskers moved without wind, and the pair of huge horns that curved forward before the transformation now seemed to tear the sky apart!

The sacredness and majesty of the traditional oriental dragon were nowhere to be found in him. Instead, he possessed a terrifying tyranny and ferocity - a true evil dragon.

"Let me see the quality of your flame!"

"Hot breath!"
