Chapter 11 The Navy's Foundation
The Azure Dragon swooped down to the earth, and the woman riding on its neck activated a soul incantation.
"LIFE~OR~TREAT!!"
An overwhelming aura of Conqueror's Haki was released along with the Soul Incantation.
In an instant, a large number of marines were filled with fear, and their souls began to separate from their bodies under the influence of Charlotte Linlin Fruit's power.
A tall, alluring woman leaped from the neck of the Azure Dragon, stepped onto Zeus which had transformed into a dark thundercloud, and sped through the port buildings.
One soul after another was captured in her hands, kneaded into a ball, and then flung out in large quantities.
The dazzling light of the soul fell to the earth like exploding iron sparks.
A large number of inanimate objects, such as buildings, rubble, trees, swords, and guns, gained life and souls after being struck by these streams of soul light, becoming Homies controlled by Charlotte Linlin.
"Kids, wipe out the navy here!!"
Charlotte Linlin's eyes flashed red as she issued commands to the countless newly created Homies.
Upon hearing the command, the Homies, who resembled fairytale creatures, instantly transformed from adorable faces into ferocious ones.
Its true form is a weapon, yet it directly turns on its master in public and attacks him instead.
Those whose true form is flowers, trees, buildings, or rocks will launch sneak attacks from behind, transforming into invisible monsters that are omnipresent.
The navy was thrown into disarray and suffered heavy casualties.
The scene was so bizarre that many people screamed in terror.
Then Charlotte Linlin appeared and activated the Soul Spell again, drawing away their souls and using it to create more Homies.
……
While Charlotte Linlin was single-handedly disrupting the entire port, Kaido and Rayleigh were certainly not idle either.
As Kaido swooped down, he swung his dragon claw, slamming the cloud of flames carrying Rayleigh and the others directly into the ground.
Rayleigh, Jabba, and a small number of Roger Pirates members who had already awakened fought against the main force of the Navy while protecting their remaining crew members who had not yet awakened.
With them responsible for delaying, Kaido's main body simply changed direction in the air and rushed straight towards the refugee ship at sea.
"Here it comes! Here it comes!!"
"They're here!!"
"That dragon is charging at us!!"
"quick!!"
"Go and stop it!!"
"No! We need to catch it quickly!!"
"I want to make it my mount!!"
The Celestial Dragons on the refuge ship had expressions that were a mixture of fear and surprise.
They were afraid that the Azure Dragon would actually harm them if it charged over.
But they were even more surprised by the Azure Dragon's powerful fire-breathing ability, finding it very cool and perfect as their mount.
The remaining agents on the ship, though they found their masters' orders somewhat absurd, dared not disobey.
Moreover, Kaido clearly intended to attack the Celestial Dragons on the ship, and they would not allow him to succeed.
For whatever reason, we must confront Kaido!
"Uro ro ro..."
Seeing another group of people in white and black suits jump out of the refugee ship, Kaido immediately opened his dragon mouth.
"Bad wind!!"
Countless wind blades immediately spewed out from the dragon's mouth, which had already been fully charged.
These wind blades are huge and sharp, with each one having a slashing range of nearly 30 meters!
The agents in black suits tried to block the attack with iron blocks, but they couldn't stop it at all; their bodies were cleaved in two by the wind blades.
Although the men in white suits were stronger, possessing complete Armament Haki and being more proficient in the Six Powers, they still found it somewhat difficult to block.
What made them even more desperate was that there were simply too many wind blades, and their coverage area was simply too large.
They could only block a portion of it with all their might; the rest they simply couldn't stop and could only watch helplessly as swarms of wind blades sliced through the Celestial Dragons' refugee ships.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, former Navy Admiral Brando, who was responsible for protecting the Celestial Dragons, appeared from the cabin in time.
Over 80 years old, with white hair and beard, he wore a standard CP0 white suit and held a large golden broadsword, slicing all the wind blades that Kaido had spewed out towards the sea on both sides.
Standing at 2 meters tall with still strong, bulging muscles, he not only blocked Kaido's attack but was also able to unleash a massive golden slash nearly 100 meters long in reverse.
"Golden Blade Slash - Cut in Two in One Slash!!"
Kaido's enormous dragon body rapidly shrank, transforming into a seven-meter-tall blue dragon-man, standing on a cloud of flames, wielding a spiked club, and unleashing a powerful slash to the side, sending the dragon veering off course towards the western port of the island.
Rumble...
The slash plowed across the earth, and a large number of marines perished under its merciless golden strike.
"Ugh, you've finally come out! You damn dogs who protect the Celestial Dragons!!"
Former Admiral Brando used Moonwalk to briefly hover in the air, his eyes filled with coldness and killing intent as he looked at Kaido.
"You ignorant brat!!"
"You dare to harm the great Celestial Dragons? Today, I will be the one to cut off your head!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the former general with the golden sword stomped heavily on the air, and a white ring of air exploded above the refugee ship. His old and strong body shot out like a cannonball.
"Die, brat! To die by my blade is an honor for you!"
"Heh heh heh heh! You old codger, you still want to be the Heavenly Dragon's dog? Wouldn't it be better to go home and hold your grandchildren? Since you're so eager to die, I'll send you to your grave right now!!"
The bluish-black Armament Haki flowed like liquid across Kaido's body.
Zi la la!
Azure lightning flashed among the dragon scales, wrapping around the jet-black iron rod along with the flowing domineering aura.
Kaido stood on a cloud of flames and unleashed a powerful blow.
"Thunderous Eight Trigrams!!"
"Sever it in two with one stroke!!"
The spiked club and the golden knife clashed head-on, yet neither could gain the upper hand.
The old general with the golden sword looked surprised.
Kaido grinned maliciously.
With his feet planted on the fiery clouds, he could exert more force and had a height advantage, allowing him to deliver a powerful headbutt by bending down and smashing it down.
The eldest brother raised his hand to block, but ultimately, because he had nowhere to put his footing, he fell straight into the sea.
'System, verify!'
Having gained the upper hand in one round, Kaido immediately began to have ideas.
He gave a low shout in his mind, and all the attribute information of this senior general was immediately displayed before his eyes.
Name: Brando
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 83
[Overall Combat Strength: 107/120] (The first number is the current value, and the second number is the theoretical maximum)
Overall Intelligence: 86/100
Overall Commander: 95/100
[Observation Haki: 111/120]
Armament Haki: 113/120
[Conqueror's Haki: None]
Devil Fruit: None
【专精：[刀法：120/120]、[六式：117/120]、[生命归还：110/120]、[射击：97/100]……略……】
[Overall Potential: 120] (Max Level Human) (Status: Pink)
[Monarch: Celestial Dragon]
Loyalty: 97
"Has he fallen from the rank of general due to old age?"
Kaido muttered to himself, then mentally controlled the veteran's attribute panel to close, and opened his own attribute panel to take a look.
His normal overall combat strength is 108, and his Armament Haki and Observation Haki are both 110.
Now transformed into a dragon-human form, the imposing stats remain unchanged, but the overall combat power has increased to 112.
Kaido has a slight edge in physical attributes, but is slightly inferior in skill.
It can be said that the two are basically at the same level, and they just happen to be each other's opponents.
"Hey, you old bastard! Climb out of the sea and let's get to the island and keep fighting!!"
Kaido issued a challenge, while glancing at the Celestial Dragons' refugee ship.
The pink entry he first saw was still on the ship; it was indeed a female Celestial Dragon.
This senior general, who also had a pink entry, was overlooked simply because he had been staying in the cabin and his system's identification function couldn't identify him through walls.
Now, he has successfully lured the old man out, but that's not enough.
Because on the Celestial Dragons' refugee ship, there was another aura that sent chills down his spine.
'That sounds familiar; it must be that old codger, Satan.'
As Kaido turned and headed back towards the port, he pondered how to capture the female Celestial Dragon with the pink tag from Satan.
