Chapter 174 The troublemaker has arrived.
"Rumble..."
Just at this critical moment, a dazzling laser beam suddenly streaked across the distant sky, hurtling towards Kaido like a meteor and striking him directly in mid-air, where he was fiercely fighting Enni!
In an instant, accompanied by a deafening explosion, a huge ball of flames rose into the air and instantly engulfed Kaido completely!
"Uh?"
Enni was stunned by what he saw and was speechless.
This is because the sudden attack method was so unique and eye-catching! Just one glance was enough to easily identify who the attacker was—it was none other than Admiral Kizaru, who is known as one of the strongest combat forces in the Navy!
Immediately afterwards, Kizaru's attack directly and forcefully broke the power balance that had been deadlocked between Kaido and him.
At this moment, Kaido was no longer able to resist the extremely fierce slash that Enni had unleashed earlier. The spiked club he was holding was also cleaved in two in an instant, and the terrifying slash mercilessly struck Kaido's body.
At the same time, the residual power of the previous laser beam had not yet dissipated, and it echoed this slash, forming a perfect pincer attack from the front and back!
After being hit repeatedly, Kaido could no longer withstand the fierce attack. His body involuntarily plummeted downwards, crashing heavily onto the hard ground like a heavy boulder with a deafening roar!
The entire earth seemed to tremble, raising clouds of dust.
If it weren't for his truly terrifying physical body, he would probably have died from this pincer attack long ago. Even if he didn't die, he would definitely have been severely injured.
Or.
Anyone else, even Whitebeard, who held the title of the world's strongest, would have been severely injured.
But Kaido... he slowly stood up.
Aside from the pain from the attack, it didn't suffer much damage. The strongest creature...
At the same time, a beam of light shot through the air at lightning speed, eventually transforming into a figure. It was so dazzling that it was impossible not to notice it.
Enni and Kaido both looked over.
The newcomer had short, slightly curly black hair. He wore sunglasses, had a stubble on his face, was tall and thin, and wore a yellow and white striped suit, a purple tie, a dark green shirt, and white leather shoes.
Overall, he is a very well-dressed person.
He even has a touch of gentlemanly demeanor.
But... that face shattered both the gentlemanly demeanor and the attire. It left only one impression: sleazy.
In the entire pirate world, only two people can be this despicable: one is the prospective Admiral Kake (Chaton), and the other is this guy in front of us, Marine Admiral Kizaru.
Enni: "..." Goodness, they arrived just in time. It seems this battle with Kaido will have to end abruptly.
He had originally planned to have a proper fight with Kaido, so he could truly understand the extent of his own strength. Now, that's definitely not possible.
He didn't want to completely expose his combat capabilities to the navy.
Kaido: "....."
He simply fell silent.
He was already struggling with just Enni. Add a Marine Admiral to the mix?
What's the point of fighting then?
Unless he wanted to be caught again... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Aini.
He wasn't immune to being captured by the navy before, but they couldn't do anything about it, so he wasn't afraid of being caught. But now, this rear admiral can break through his defenses.
If I get caught again, I'll only be dead.
With this in mind, Kaido decisively transformed into a giant dragon and sped away into the distance.
Kizaru stood in the air, watching silently. It was as if he hadn't even seen Kaido escape.
Seeing this, Aini's lips twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but ask, "Admiral Kizaru, aren't we going to give chase?"
Kizaru then turned his gaze to Enni, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. However, this only made his already lewd demeanor even more lewd.
He just didn't feel the heaviness himself.
He said in a lazy tone, "The order Fleet Admiral Sengoku gave me was to help you defeat Kaido and keep you safe. He didn't tell me to fight Kaido to the death... So why should I bother?"
Enni: "..." Good grief, this is so Kizaru-like. But, is it really okay for you to be so blunt with me?
At this moment, he was completely speechless.
At this moment, Kizaru was scrutinizing Enni. To be honest, although he hadn't seen the entire battle between Enni and Kaido, just from that final clash, he could tell that Enni's strength was definitely no less than Kaido's.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow... young people these days are really scary!"
Annie: "..."
He was completely convinced by this sixth brother.
Kizaru then said, "I've come here for two reasons: first, to support you and rescue you from Kaido; and second, to inform you that the Marine Headquarters has promoted you to Vice Admiral. I also want you to come with me back to Headquarters for the commissioning ceremony."
"However, the former... I think it's somewhat unnecessary. Your strength... truly astonishes this old man!"
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of expression the Warring States Marshal will have when he learns of your strength... It'll be quite a sight!"
"Ding dong, host has been promoted to vice admiral. Observation Haki has been upgraded to advanced level, Rokushiki has been upgraded to the level of Life Return, Fishman Karate techniques, and the Great Strength bloodline gene has been obtained."
Holy crap....
I must say, this is truly a reward worthy of promotion to lieutenant general!
That's really awesome.
