"It's not over yet!" Kane smiled faintly and raised his claws.
As the God of the Sky, how could Rayquaza not display his ability to control the weather?
Rumble—
The originally clear sky suddenly became overcast.
Under Kane's will, countless dark clouds intertwined, merged, and compressed until they completely obscured the sunlight, plunging the world into a heart-pounding darkness.
Only the occasional flashes of lightning tearing through the darkness in the depths of the thunderclouds seemed to herald that a world-ending catastrophe was brewing within.
Even the battle-hardened Four Emperors Kaido, at this moment, caught a whiff of danger.
This is getting more and more interesting!
"That's enough."
Feeling he had reached his limit, Kane suddenly clenched his fists, "Thunderbolt!"
Rip!
In an instant, the thunderclouds boiled.
A thick, almost solid black lightning bolt crashed down, as if to pierce through the earth.
Kaido's eyes gleamed, and seeing the future, his expression was solemn; he twisted his body, transforming into his Human-Beast form for the first time.
"Kid, I acknowledge you! This is the disaster I want!"
Kaido laughed heartily, Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki clinging to his club.
"Thunder Bagua!"
Kaido did not retreat but advanced, swinging his Hassaikai club fiercely towards the black lightning that seemed capable of devouring everything.
The tiny club, in front of the twenty-meter-diameter pillar of lightning, was as thin as a pencil in an adult's hand.
But even so, the lightning descending from above made no progress under Kaido's interception.
Boom!!!
The pitch-black Haki lightning exploded, continuously eroding the lightning from above Kaido's head.
The ear-piercing roars were incessant, and merely the escaping shockwaves slamming into the ground instantly triggered a series of astonishing explosions.
Even Kane, the instigator, had no choice but to fly away from the battlefield.
Reaching a safe position, Kane cupped his hand over his eyes, admiring his masterpiece.
As expected of a powerful move with 110 power, for him to achieve such an effect now, it's comparable to a Four Emperors' strike.
If he were to cosplay Eneru and create a spherical lightning, he might truly be able to destroy a country with a single blow.
It's just a pity that the greater the power, the longer the charge time.
This was also because he encountered Kaido, who likes to tank damage; if he encountered an agile opponent, the hit rate would probably be worrying.
At the center of the battlefield, Kaido, directly confronting the heavenly thunder, was enduring unimaginable pressure.
However, this pressure was like the strongest fine wine, making all the blood in his body boil, every muscle and bone roaring!
The muscles in Kaido's arms bulged further, and the ground beneath his feet could not withstand the enormous recoil, directly collapsing into a large pit.
An even greater force actually drove his club back step by step from its stalemate.
"Mere lightning, get back to the sky!"
Kaido's eyes widened, and all his strength erupted to the extreme in an instant, and with a wild baseball-like posture, he sent the black lightning back the way it came.
Rumble—
The black lightning, sent back into the sky, exploded within the clouds, and the turbulent winds directly tore through the clouds.
Long-awaited, blazing sunlight.
Once again, it illuminated the earth!
"How exhilarating!"
Kaido put down his club and laughed heartily, then turned his gaze back to Kane, with an indescribable satisfaction in his eyes.
"I'm really liking you more and more."
Although there was an element of trickery, to be able to achieve this level purely with Devil Berry ability shows how great this kid's potential is.
Kane transformed back into his human form, brazenly spreading his arms and saying, "Let's stop here, Mr. Kaido. I am willing to join the Beasts Pirates."
"Gurararara, you cunning kid."
Kaido laughed heartily; having finished his warm-up, he didn't mind this little bit of trickery and then created a flame cloud and placed it in front of Kane.
"Come on up, kid, and leave with me! The title of the Beasts Pirates' Third Calamity shall be yours to bear!!"
Kane, however, shook his head, twisted his body, and instantly transformed into a giant emerald-green dragon tens of meters long.
Kaido's eyes lit up: "Is this your Beast form? You can actually fly directly."
As a Azure Dragon, he himself did not possess the ability to fly; he relied on creating flame clouds and gripping the clouds to fly.
Saying that, Kaido also transformed into a hundred-meter Azure Dragon and soared into the sky.
Above the sky, two giant divine dragons spanned the horizon; those who witnessed this scene would probably think that deities had descended.
However, compared to Kaido's Azure Dragon, which meandered for hundreds of meters and seemed capable of carrying mountains, Kane's transformed Rayquaza appeared much smaller.
On their way to the New World, the two began to chat.
"Rayquaza, the God of the Sky? Never heard of it, nor is it in the Devil Berry Encyclopedia."
"Perhaps too few people have eaten it, or perhaps I am the first."
Kane found it difficult to explain and could only be vague.
Kaido didn't care much about this; there were countless strange abilities on the sea, and he turned to ask about the origin of Kane's previous move.
He could also summon lightning.
But to compress and condense lightning to that extent, in his impression, perhaps only the Rumble Berry could do it.
Kane didn't hide it, admitting, "My ability is mainly to control the weather, and I can also use wind, fire, thunder, shockwaves… even summon meteorites."
Don't just look at the simple word 'control'.
In terms of conjuring wind and rain alone, Kane could leave Kaido three streets behind.
"It sounds somewhat similar to my ability, yet it's much more comprehensive. At least, I can't control the weather as I please; I can only summon a few dark clouds."
"Each has its strengths," Kane said sincerely, "The flame cloud ability is very powerful."
This was by no means flattery; the flame clouds were indeed extraordinary, not only useful for flying but also containing immense power.
In the original work, Kaido could even use flame clouds to lift Onigashima, which would be utterly impossible with his personal strength alone.
"Mr. Kaido," Kane changed the subject at the opportune moment, "Can you teach me Haki training?"
"Of course! However, you're the first one to dare ask me to be their teacher!"
Kaido seemed to have flipped a switch, laughing heartily.
That's because you haven't transmigrated, otherwise, you'd know how famous Teacher Kai is.
You are the number one master pirate: one strike Ryuo, two strikes Haoshoku, three strikes awakening.
Kane secretly complained.
At this time, dusk quietly descended.
The sun set in the west, and its golden rays dyed the clouds, turning the vast expanse of white clouds golden.
Kane, who had never seen such a sight, was mesmerized and speechless.
"It's so beautiful!"
"Beautiful? Kid, what joke are you telling? There are plenty of such sights on the sea," Kaido scoffed, lacking any sense of romance.
Kane's recently uplifted mood was instantly ruined.
If he couldn't beat Kaido, Kane would really want to punch him.
Translate for me, what do you mean by 'plenty'!
With such an interruption, Kane's mood for enjoying the scenery completely vanished, and the rest of the journey was silent, only focused on hurrying on.
After a night of flying, under the dawn's light, an island surrounded by high walls appeared on the distant horizon.
