One Piece: Collective Viewing of the Future, Starting from God Valley

Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Bitter Struggle

...

On the light screen, the massive combined trump card assault launched by Luffy, Kid, and Law!

The impact of the King Kong Gun, the coordinated strike of the giant steel hands, and the restraining rain of rocks...

These attacks completely engulfed Kaido.

Smoke, rubble, metal fragments, and the aftershocks of Haki mixed together, obscuring that area.

However, the true top-tier powerhouses both inside and outside the light screen — Rocks, Roger, Whitebeard, Garp, and even the young Kaido himself and Charlotte Linlin...

They could all tell that although Kaido had taken the hits the entire time, these attacks had not truly broken through his defenses!

”Impressive momentum, but... it’s nothing more than tickling.”

The young Kaido held his spiked club and let out a cold snort.

Just as he said, his future self’s body had long since surpassed the realm of ordinary humans. It was the result of countless life-and-death battles!

Combined with the power of the Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon Fruit and his Haki that had been tempered through countless trials, it had formed a terrifying defense that was nearly ”indestructible.”

Furthermore, his development of the Azure Dragon Fruit had already reached a level of complete mastery, almost instinctive. He could freely call upon the various elemental powers and life force granted by the fruit to strengthen himself at any time.

An attack of this level might be able to reduce ordinary powerhouses to dust, but to the future Kaido,

it was probably barely enough to even make him feel ”pain,” let alone cause substantial heavy injuries.

As expected, before the smoke had fully cleared, an even more terrifying and violent aura had already shot into the sky!

”Mam-ma-ma-ma!!!!!”

Charlotte Linlin’s sharp, rage-filled shriek echoed throughout Oni Island!

She had been completely enraged by Luffy and the others ignoring her!

As the queen of Whole Cake Island and one of the Yonko, when had she ever suffered such ”humiliation”?

She stood atop the thundercloud Zeus, holding the Emperor’s sword Napoleon. The sun homie Prometheus wrapped around the blade with raging flames, turning Napoleon into a burning giant blade!

In the sky, violent lightning drawn by her soul power danced like silver snakes, constantly striking around her and making her appear like a goddess of thunder and flames who had stepped out of myth!

”You brats who don’t know whether you’re dead or alive... What do you take me for?! Kneel and repent!!!”

Charlotte Linlin raised the burning Napoleon high. The tip of the sword pointed straight at the heavens, drawing down raging thunder and flames from the sky. She was clearly preparing a devastating ”divine punishment”!

She wanted these ”Worst Generation” members who had scorned an Emperor’s majesty to taste true despair!

However, just before Linlin’s ”divine punishment” could descend...

”ROOOOOAR!!!”

A world-shaking dragon’s roar, like thunder striking flat ground, suddenly erupted from the area covered in attack smoke!

The dragon’s roar was filled with supreme majesty, violent power, and a trace of displeasure at having its ”game” interrupted!

Immediately after, a cyan shockwave containing destructive energy exploded outward, sweeping away all the smoke, rubble, and metal debris!

When the smoke cleared, it revealed the scene inside.

Luffy’s King Kong Gun had left a faint red mark on Kaido’s abdomen that was rapidly fading.

Kid’s giant steel hands had been twisted and deformed by a tyrannical force, scattering into countless metal fragments. The rocks controlled by Law had long since been reduced to dust.

And the place where Kaido had originally stood was now empty.

In its place, hovering in the low sky and blocking out the moonlight and firelight... was an incomprehensibly massive azure dragon!

Its entire body was covered in hard, cyan-blue dragon scales that gleamed with a metallic luster. Each scale was the size of a shield.

Its long, winding dragon body was filled with a sense of power. Its four dragon claws were sharp as hooks, flashing with cold light.

On its ferocious dragon head, two curved dragon horns resembled a crown. A pair of enormous dragon eyes burned with flames as it coldly looked down at the people below like ants.

Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon form!

This precious fruit that Charlotte Linlin had also coveted back at God Valley was now displaying unparalleled brilliance on Kaido!

It not only granted Kaido the abilities to fly and control fire, wind, clouds, and other elements, but also fundamentally transformed and strengthened the essence of his life!

It gave Kaido a mythical creature-like physique and long life force.

”Mam-ma-ma-ma~”

Seeing Kaido transform into an azure dragon, the anger on Linlin’s face slightly lessened. Instead, a complex expression appeared — part regret, part recognition...

”Although it was a bit of a pity that I didn’t get this fruit back then... it seems that in your hands, Kaido, it hasn’t been wasted.”

The azure dragon soaring in the sky and the ”Queen” standing atop the thundercloud while holding a flaming giant sword — the true forms of the two Emperors of the Sea appeared simultaneously, instantly dominating the entire sky!

That terrifying pressure crushed down on the Supernovas below like a tangible tsunami!

The air itself seemed to become viscous, and breathing became difficult.

Zoro, Killer, and the others involuntarily tensed up.

Luffy, Kid, and Law also felt unprecedented pressure, but their eyes grew even sharper. Their fighting spirit had not been crushed.

The azure dragon Kaido in the sky let out a low dragon’s roar. His deafening voice rang directly in everyone’s ears: ”The winner is king, the loser is a bandit... No matter how the era changes, the law of the sea... will never change!”

He wasted no more words. His dragon eyes locked onto the ”ants” below as his massive dragon mouth suddenly opened wide!

This time, instead of spitting a single scorching pillar of fire, countless sharp wind blades swept out!

The wind blades swept toward the people below in a covering barrage. Their range and power far exceeded any previous attack!

”ROOM!”

Law reacted the fastest. His Op-Op Fruit ability activated, instantly moving himself to the edge of the attack range.

However, Kid’s massive ”magnetic demon” form, due to its enormous size, moved relatively slowly and became the best target!

”Shhh shhh shhh!!”

Countless wind blades easily tore through that giant steel body formed from countless metal fragments like cutting tofu!

Sparks flew everywhere as metal fragments scattered down like snowflakes!

In the blink of an eye, that imposing magnetic demon had been sliced into several large chunks of twisted scrap metal and collapsed with a crash!

”Tch!”

Kid’s real body leapt out from a pile of metal fragments. His expression was ugly, but his mouth remained defiant as he roared at the azure dragon in the sky: ”That was just a pile of scrap metal anyway! So this is all a Yonko’s move amounts to, huh?!”

Classic case of losing the fight but not the argument.

Some of the wind blades that Law had not managed to move away shot toward Zoro on the other side!

Zoro’s eyes sharpened. He did not panic. The Enma in his hand trembled slightly.

He unleashed a slash condensed to the extreme. Instead of clashing head-on, he used skill to overcome force, precisely striking the weak points in the wind blades’ power flow!

”Swish!”

The several wind blades heading toward him were easily deflected by this single slash. They changed direction and whistled toward a distant mountain peak!

”BOOM!!!”

The peak of a small mountain in the distance was cleanly sliced off by those few wind blades that had gone off course! The cut surface was smooth as a mirror!

This scene made everyone’s hearts sink even further.

Even just the aftershock and stray projectiles of the attack carried such power! What would it be like to take it head-on?

”Gomu Gomu no—— Jet Serpent Cannon!!!”

Without hesitation, Luffy, whose speed had surged after entering Gear 4, instantly shot to the side of the azure dragon!

His expanded right fist was once again covered in Armament Haki as he struck the azure dragon’s relatively soft abdomen from various cunning angles!

Each punch contained enough force to shatter city walls!

Although Kid’s magnetic demon had been destroyed, his ability to control metal remained!

He forcibly gathered nearby scattered metal chunks that had not completely lost their magnetism and once again formed two slightly smaller but still massive metal arms!

Seizing the moment when the azure dragon’s attention was drawn by Luffy’s attacks, the demon suddenly pounced and tightly wrapped around the azure dragon’s slender neck. Then he unleashed all his power, dragging the dragon’s head and smashing it violently toward the ground below!

He was trying to use the azure dragon’s massive weight and momentum to create damage!

Law’s figure appeared like a ghost at the position on the azure dragon’s body corresponding to its heart, despite the dragon scales covering it.

Blue-white electricity jumped around the blade in his hand. He took a deep breath, ignored the fact that he had never dissected a dragon-type creature before, and relying on the intuition and experience of a top-tier surgeon, concentrated all his power and mental strength into a single point!

He thrust down hard at what he judged to be Kaido’s ”heart” location. This strike was aimed at causing internal destruction!

Luffy was responsible for drawing aggro with frontal assaults, Kid was responsible for controlling and creating openings, and Law was responsible for finding weak points for a fatal blow!

This was already the best tactical coordination they could think of and execute under immense pressure!

”CLANG!!!”

”BOOM!!!”

”Zzzzt!!!”

Three attacks of different natures landed on the azure dragon Kaido almost simultaneously!

Luffy’s Serpent Cannon left a dense patch of dents on the dragon’s abdominal scales but failed to pierce through.

Kid’s giant metal arms wrapped around the dragon’s neck and smashed it down, causing the azure dragon’s head to dip slightly. A trace of annoyance flashed through its dragon eyes, but it did not lose balance.

Law’s ”high-frequency scalpel,” which had concentrated all his power and was capable of cutting through Haki defenses, stabbed into the hard dragon scales!

Although it produced glaring sparks and a teeth-grinding friction sound, the blade only managed to pierce in a small distance before it could no longer advance any further!

”What...?!”

Law’s pupils contracted violently. Cold sweat seeped from his forehead.

Even this attack of his, which was meant for internal destruction, had failed to work?!

Just how absurd was this monster’s defense?!

”It’s not over yet!!!”

Killer took advantage of everyone’s attention being drawn by the three captains’ attacks. Like a ghost, he slid rapidly along the azure dragon’s spine while holding his high-speed rotating sickles!

The spinning blades madly scraped against the hard dragon scales, producing continuous sparks and ear-piercing noise!

He did not seek to cause major damage. He only hoped to act like a file, continuously wearing it down and grinding it, even if it only left a single scratch on the dragon scales. Accumulated over time, it might become a breakthrough point!

However, reality was cruel.

Killer’s rotating sickles slid for dozens of meters.

Aside from leaving a shallow, almost negligible scratch on the dragon scales and exhausting a large amount of stamina, he gained nothing.

The hardness and toughness of those dragon scales far exceeded his imagination.

Just as a sense of powerlessness rose in Killer’s heart and his movements showed a barely perceptible lag due to fatigue...

”BOOM!!”

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket and incomparably blinding struck down without warning from the rolling black clouds above, landing squarely on Killer, who was sliding along the azure dragon’s back!

”Urgh!!!”

Killer let out a short grunt of pain as his entire body was instantly swallowed by violent electricity!

Like a kite with its string cut, he fell from the dragon’s back, black smoke rising from his body. He crashed heavily into the ruins below, twitched twice, and then stopped moving.
