Kane's declaration was like a fuse.
In an instant, countless bolts of lightning struck down.
At the same time, the seemingly docile gentle breeze suddenly twisted and shrieked, transforming into dozens of Twisters made of wind blades.
The two intertwined and merged into a death storm!
"Ugh ah ah ah—!!!"
Screams that were not human-like instantly drowned out the entire battlefield!
In the air, an intensely nauseating smell of burning and a pungent smell of blood permeated wildly.
After the storm raged, the entire area looked as if it had been baptized by a natural disaster.
At this moment, King and Queen, standing above, finally understood why Kaido's codename for Kane was 'Natural Disaster'!
Of the originally dense pirate crowd, only a few figures could still stand with difficulty.
Jack, Sasaki, Who's-Who, and others seemed unharmed, but their breathing was already erratic, clearly having expended a lot of stamina in resisting the storm.
"The clearing effect isn't bad, huh."
Kane looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Hmph, a bunch of idiots." Who's-Who looked disdainfully at the pirates lying on the ground.
He had deliberately held back earlier to let these cannon fodders test him.
The test was successful, but the result was alarming.
"Powerful defense, coupled with the ability to control natural phenomena for large-scale destructive strikes..."
Who's-Who's gaze swept over the huge divine Dragon in the sky with envy and apprehension.
Mythical Zoans are indeed monsters!
But...
There's still a chance!
However, let them go first.
Who's-Who's gaze, like a venomous snake, quietly turned to Jack, Ulti, Sasaki, and others who were also standing beside him.
The pirates who had attacked just now were merely extras; the remaining people were his true opponents.
Coincidentally, Sasaki and others also had flickering eyes, planning the same thing in their hearts.
Before thoroughly understanding Kane's trump card, no one dared to make the first move, fearing they would pave the way for others.
For a moment, the scene was somewhat deadlocked.
"Hmph, a bunch of cowards."
Jack, holding two huge scimitars, was the first to break the suffocating silence.
He let out a sneer, his eyes filled with fighting intent, and his massive body instantly swelled and deformed, transforming into his Human-Beast form.
His thick legs stomped hard on the ground, shattering the earth beneath him, and Jack shot up into the sky like a cannonball!
"Break for me!!"
Mid-air, Jack's arms became a blur.
Two massive scimitars, wrapped in pitch-black Armament Haki, struck the same point on Kane's Dragon body with an ear-piercing shriek that tore through the air.
Pain, such pain!
Kane's pupils suddenly constricted; he could clearly feel his skin being chiseled through little by little.
Truly worthy of being the Beasts Pirates' genius young man.
Kane sighed inwardly.
At just eighteen years old, Jack, relying on his Fishman bloodline and the Ancient Zoan, Mammoth Berry, his overall strength was probably only below King and Queen at this time.
If he hadn't suddenly appeared, Jack would probably have become one of the All-Stars before long.
Can't take it head-on anymore!
As thoughts raced through his mind, Kane's massive Dragon body began to shrink, instantly switching to a more agile, more suitable Human-Beast form for close-quarters combat.
While the Beast form was satisfying for clearing, it was a living target in a one-on-one fight.
"Just as I wished."
Seeing Kane voluntarily shrink his size, Jack's eyes lit up, and he directly transformed into a giant Mammoth covered in long fur and tusks like spears.
He quickly charged in front of Kane, raising his thick trunk high.
"It's over!"
"Elephant Trunk Machamp!"
The pitch-black trunk, imbued with Armament Haki, cut through the sky and smashed down fiercely towards Kane.
This powerful blow even severely compressed the air, dragging a visible white shockwave behind it.
Boom!
That blow, condensed with Machamp and Armament Haki, landed squarely on Kane, who had just finished transforming.
An unimaginable terrifying impact burst forth instantly; Kane felt as if he had been directly hit by a high-speed battleship.
His entire body, like a kite with a broken string, turned into a blurry afterimage, shooting backward at an alarming speed!
Bang!
A dull thud sounded as Kane's body slammed heavily into a rock wall.
Dust permeated, completely engulfing his figure.
At the skull's eye.
Queen shook his head: "That kid lost; Jack's blow isn't something an ordinary person can take."
King sneered: "Idiot, look closely with your Observation Haki."
"Who are you calling an idiot?! You pervert who loves to interrogate others. Even if I lose a hundred IQ points, I'd still be considered a genius!"
Queen, whose G-spot was poked, then spouted a string of self-proclaimed titles.
Such as "MADS's most outstanding scientist, second only to Vegapunk," "the pinnacle of body modification," "the grand master of biochemical weapons," and so on.
Below the skull.
"Damn it, Jack, that bastard, got ahead of me."
The cute girl with blue and pink hair widened her eyes and cursed angrily: "I haven't settled the score for my brother with that guy yet!"
During the thunderous storm just now, Page One, the youngest and weakest, was seriously injured.
If he hadn't been an Ancient Zoan, Spinosaurus form user, he probably would have been among the fallen pirates.
The purple-haired young man wearing a black and white mask pulled Ulti and whispered: "Sister, forget it, don't conflict with Big Brother Jack."
It wasn't out of fear of souring relations; brawls among Beasts Pirates members were common, and as long as it wasn't a sneak attack, Kaido wouldn't care at all, and Jack was even keen on it.
But the problem was, his sister was not Jack's opponent.
Even if he joined in, it would be tough for the two siblings together.
Why ask for trouble?
"Little Page, Sister will listen to you." Ulti wrapped her arm around Page One's neck, affectionately, even somewhat roughly, rubbing her cheek against his face.
"It hurts, it hurts~ Gentle, a little gentler..." Page One was on the verge of tears.
"Since that's the case, then our next opponents will be each other, won't they?"
Who's-Who chuckled sinisterly: "Sasaki, how about we team up and clear them out first?"
"Just as I wished."
Sasaki, slightly plump with two horns on his head, readily agreed, sweeping his gaze greedily around, seeing Ulti and her brother as his prey.
"Huh?! You wanna fight?!"
Ulti instantly switched from "brother-complex" mode to enraged state.
As an Ancient Zoan, Pachycephalosaurus form user, she directly transformed into her Human-Beast form, shouting defiantly: "I'm going to headbutt all you bastards into the ground!!"
Page One followed closely, entering his Spinosaurus Human-Beast form, standing shoulder to shoulder with his sister, glaring angrily at Sasaki and Who's-Who.
The siblings had survived in the dog-eat-dog Beasts Pirates by relying on their desperation and unity.
However, the four caught in infighting did not notice that Jack, who was facing away from them, had remained vigilant.
Crash—
Rubble rolled down, and a Dragon Claw suddenly extended from the ruins, gripping the rock wall.
"Cough, that was quite a hit, that one."
Kane's figure slowly rose from the dust-filled ruins, he shook his somewhat dizzy head, and rubble crumbled down.
He leaned against the rock wall with one hand and clutched his chest with the other; besides the impact injury from Jack's trunk, there was also the wound from the scimitar earlier.
What was shocking was that.
In just a few minutes, the gruesome knife wound had already stopped bleeding, and the dull pain in his chest was rapidly receding like a tide.
Kane looked up into the distance, grinning excitedly.
"Jack... it's my turn!"
