As for Ray, who discharges electricity, it is the fruit of development that allows for precise control of the current.
Moreover, as Lei Luo's eldest son, Lei Luo would often give him special training.
The lightning bolt crashed down, instantly engulfing Weevil on the training field in a pale blue light, with thunder crackling and raging wildly.
Loki and Weevil gritted their teeth, enduring the excruciating pain from the electric current, and struggled to maintain their footing amidst the lightning.
Their bodies trembled incessantly under the stimulation of the electric current, yet not one of them flinched.
Loki and Weevil, true to their monstrous physiques, were actually slowly adapting to Ray's terrifying lightning.
Lei Luo stared intently at the training field, his eyes showing both sternness and a hint of satisfaction.
This training, though brutal, is crucial to their development.
At this moment, Robin and the others beside Lei Luo, as well as Renault and Kikyo on his back, were all watching the training intently from the side.
Lei Luo patted their heads and smiled gently, "Wait a little longer, you're still too young."
The oldest, Robin, is only six years old, Yamato is only five, and the others, such as Rein, Honeysuckle, Reno, and Kikyo, are even younger.
Even physically strong individuals like Loki and Weevil only started training with lightning this year.
As for whether he will develop an immunity to lightning after body tempering, and whether Ray, who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, will be countered by them?
Nareiro can only say that he's overthinking it.
Do you know what 100 million volts of lightning means? That's divine power, and its destructive force is comparable to that of ancient weapons.
Loki and Weevil are indeed physical monsters; one has the blood of an ancient giant flowing through his veins, and the other has Whitebeard's bloodline factor plus an Ancient Brachiosaurus.
However, even the strongest physique has a limit to the amount of lightning the body can withstand.
Aside from the Devil Fruit named Rubber, which is actually the Devil Fruit of the Sun God Nika, there is no one in this world who is completely immune to lightning.
While Leylo was training the children's bodies, Kaido, transformed into a dragon, was aimlessly soaring through the sky.
As Kaido flew, he suddenly stopped, letting his massive body crash down like a meteorite...
Chapter 252 Meeting Again
On an unnamed deserted island, two pirate crews bumped into each other and started fighting after a disagreement.
The battle broke out instantly.
King against king, against general.
The captain grinned maliciously and charged at the opposing captain, while the officers, armed with weapons, rushed towards the opposing officers.
The ordinary crew members, looking fierce and menacing, fought each other with the enemy crew.
Swords flashed and shadows gleamed.
The shouts of battle and the deafening roar of gunfire were deafening.
"Bang!" The two captains' weapons collided instantly, sparks flew, and waves of air swept around.
One of the pirate captains cursed, "Hanafza, you lackey of the World Government!"
Hanafza didn't care about this.
Since he became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, how many people have called him a "lackey" over the years?
What does it matter? He's made a fortune off that name anyway.
Although I don't mind, since they insulted him to his face, then he should just die!
A fierce glint flashed in Hanafza's eyes, and he wielded a meteor hammer in his other hand, quickly smashing it towards the captain.
The captain, who was also quite famous in the New World, reacted extremely quickly, dodging the attack of the meteor hammer while simultaneously slashing at Hanafza with his sword.
Hanafza grinned, easily deflecting the captain's attack with his scythe, while simultaneously hurling his meteor hammer at the opponent with a whistling sound.
The captain's expression changed, and he hurriedly covered the area that was about to be attacked with Armament Haki.
Even so, the enormous impact still sent the captain flying backwards.
Hanafza pressed his advantage, wielding a scythe and a flail in each hand, and charged forward once more.
After landing, the captain quickly regained his footing, gripped his broadsword tightly, and roared as he charged towards Hanafza, yelling, "Don't underestimate me!"
Hanafza sneered, "So what if I underestimate you?"
The two captains immediately engaged in battle again, and it was clear that Hanafza had the upper hand.
The fighting between the officers and ordinary crew members on both sides intensified, with some wounded and some killed...
The two captains were ultimately at odds, and before long, Hanafza had beaten his opponent badly.
"You dare to be so arrogant?" Hanafza, weapon in hand, approached step by step.
Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, the clouds were torn apart without warning, and a piercing whistling sound was constantly approaching, as if the sky were collapsing.
Hanafza shouted, ignoring the captain, and turned to run!
The remaining pirates also stopped fighting and ran away.
The captain, however, was already severely injured and unable to run any further. He could only watch helplessly as the overwhelming figure crashed down upon him.
"Boom——!"
Like a meteorite crashing down, a deafening roar erupted, and the entire island seemed to tremble.
The ground was smashed into a huge crater, and smoke and dust shot into the sky, with shockwaves sweeping through.
Hanafza and his men swallowed hard, unaware that cold sweat was trickling down their foreheads, their eyes filled with shock as they stared ahead.
Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, a large hand reached out from the deep pit, and then a burly figure slowly rose from it.
"He won't die." The burly man muttered to himself.
The pirates stared wide-eyed at the figure before them, their jaws nearly dropping in astonishment.
"Captain of the Beasts Pirates, Kaido!"
How could they not recognize this person?
Hanafza breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward, and greeted him: "Sashibridana, Kaido."
Kaido had already discovered the existence of Hanafuzha, an old acquaintance; otherwise, he would have committed suicide after failing to do so.
Kaido glanced at Hanafza and casually said, "It's you. What are you doing on this island?"
Hanafza glanced at the pit behind Kaido and could confirm that the aura inside the pit had disappeared, knowing that the captain was now a pile of minced meat.
So he didn't intend to mention it, and just smiled and said, "It's nothing, we were just about to have a banquet here."
After a pause, Hanafza extended a banquet invitation to Kaido: "Since you're here, let's have a banquet together, Kaido."
Kaido nodded slightly: "That works too."
Hanafza grinned, waved his hand, and shouted at the crew, "Hurry up and prepare the banquet!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" the crew members replied and hurried off to prepare the ingredients needed for the banquet.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Hanafza's crew went to prepare the banquet, while the opposing pirates were sweating profusely.
Their captain is dead, and Hanafza seems to know Kaido, the captain of the Beasts Pirates!
That’s a lot of fun!
Hanafza, armed, swiftly dispatched the remaining crew members, giving them no chance to beg for mercy.
Their captain was no match for Hanafza, let alone the crew.
Hanafza quickly sent all the pirates to see their captain.
Kaido stared blankly.
Soon, the bonfire was lit, and the banquet began.
Hanafza took out his treasured wine and poured a bowl for Kaido and himself.
He immediately picked up his wine bowl and laughed heartily, "Come on, Kaido, bottoms up!"
Kaido glanced at Hanafzai, said nothing, picked up the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
Upon seeing this, Hanafza immediately drank the wine in his bowl in one gulp.
After finishing a bowl of wine, Hanafza finally spoke, asking, "Kaido, what are you doing here?"
Kaido casually remarked, "Ah, I was just passing by, and thought it would be nice to die here, so I jumped down."
Hanafza: "..."
How come he understands each word individually, but can't understand them when they're put together?
What do you mean by "it's good to die here"?
Kaido ignored the bewildered Hanafza, reached out and picked up a piece of grilled meat from the grill, put it to his mouth, and started eating.
Hanafza picked up the wine jar and refilled the wine bowls in front of the two men.
Kaido, eating meat and drinking wine, casually remarked, "You've really made something of yourself, kid, becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."
Hanafza smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Oh, it's nothing, just a small skirmish. It can't compare to the Beasts Pirates."
The main reason he became the first "Shichibukai" was because of his battle with Kaido.
The World Government mistakenly believed that he possessed strength comparable to Kaido, but they also knew how much of that battle was misrepresented.
Kaido snorted coldly: "Of course, they can't compare to my Beasts Pirates!"
Hanafza immediately nodded and said, "Yes, the Beasts Pirates are above all other pirates."
Kaido grinned, satisfied, and downed the wine in his bowl in one gulp. Then he asked:
"You said back then that you had something to do, which was to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"
Chapter 253 Alliance
Hanafza shook his head: "No, I did have my own things to do back then."
"As for why I joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea..."
At this point, Hanafza downed the wine in his bowl in one gulp, then stood up and said, "Kaido, wait here for me, I'm going to the ship to get something."
Kaido watched Hanafza's departing figure with a puzzled look, "So mysterious, I wonder what he's up to."
Ignoring what Hanafza was going to get, Kaido ate meat and drank wine as if he were at home.
Soon, Hanafza returned, carrying a box in his arms.
Kaido tore off a large bite of meat and chewed it, casually asking, "What's in this box?"
Hanafza smiled and slowly opened the box.
Kaido, who had been nonchalantly eating grilled meat and drinking wine, stared wide-eyed the moment he opened the box and saw what was inside.
Inside the box lay two Devil Fruits.
Having seen the Devil Fruit encyclopedia, Kaido naturally recognized what kind of fruit it was.
Dragon Fruit, Ancient Species, Pachycephalosaurus Form!
Dragon Fruit, Ancient Species, Spinosaurus Form!
Although the Beasts Pirates have collected quite a few Zoan-type Devil Fruits over the years, including several Mythical Zoan-type fruits.
However, Kaido can be said to have never forgotten his original intention; his love for Zoan-type Devil Fruits has never changed over the years.
Especially since these two Devil Fruits are Ancient Zoan types, which are relatively rare!
Kaido squinted at the Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit in the box, then looked at Hanafza with great interest.
Hanafza seemed oblivious to Kaido's gaze, continuing to speak to himself, "Kaido, do you know how I got these two Devil Fruits?"
This piqued Kaido's interest, and he asked, "How did you get here?"
Hanafza grinned: "Stolen."
Kaido felt he had been tricked, and his expression turned somewhat displeased. He coldly retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? Pirates get their stuff by stealing!"
