Although Kairo was leisurely chatting with Tashigi, Momousagi and Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't dare relax for even a moment!
Although all three Admirals had gathered, the various Vice Admirals had arrived one after another, and tens of thousands of Marines had formed an impregnable wall around them, they still didn't dare let their guard down!
After all, the enemy they were facing was the world's strongest creature—a super monster that simply couldn't be killed no matter how many times they tried! If the battlefield spread, the Marine families living in this town would inevitably be caught up in it and lose their lives!
That was also why the three Admirals had joined the battle immediately. They all knew very well that if Kaido were allowed to run wild here, the entirety of Marine Headquarters could be reduced to ruins! The other Vice Admirals present also understood that if the three Admirals and Garp didn't act, they simply couldn't inflict any substantial damage on Kaido!
Kaido rubbed the spot where Garp's punch had struck him, his expression somewhat ugly.
Whether it was Kizaru's attacks, Aokiji's freezing, or Akainu's magma attacks, Kaido could take them all head-on. But Garp's iron fist was genuinely difficult for him to withstand! Although the spot where Garp had struck him showed little change on the outside, his internal organs had been badly shaken. If anyone else had taken Garp's ferocious, domineering punch head-on, they would have either died on the spot or suffered massive internal bleeding!
But Kaido wasn't just anyone.
He was Kaido!!!
After lying quietly on the ground for several seconds, Kaido suddenly opened his eyes and let out a loud burp.
Before anyone present could react, Kaido suddenly rolled over and sat up, then began roaring with his mouth full of alcohol,
"That hurt like hell!!! Garp, you're as domineering as ever! Hahaha... But a punch at this level still can't kill me!!!"
After letting out a savage laugh, Kaido suddenly raised his iron club again and swung it viciously toward Garp!
Seeing this, Garp didn't dodge. He charged straight at Kaido, meeting the blow head-on!
At the same time, Akainu moved.
After unleashing the full power of the Magma-Magma Fruit, Akainu flashed into the battlefield. His completely transformed magma fist dripped molten lava onto the ground.
At the same time, Garp's iron fist and Kaido's iron club collided head-on!
A deafening explosion that shook heaven and earth erupted. Terrifying shockwaves, one wave stronger than the last, caused the air itself to tremble before instantly spreading outward.
"Kaido, take this!"
Akainu seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He then roared word by word,
"Great Eruption!"
With an earth-shaking boom, Akainu's Great Eruption struck Kaido squarely in the chest!
At the same time, Kizaru flashed above Kaido's head. He flipped upside down in midair, raising his right leg toward the sky as a dazzling beam of light gathered at the tip of his foot.
The next second...
"Light-Speed Kick!"
With a loud shout, his glowing right foot came crashing down!
Kizaru's kick was so fast that even a monster like Kaido had no chance to dodge it. On top of that, Akainu's Great Eruption had just struck him, making his reactions even slower.
With a heavy thud, Kizaru's lightning-fast kick slammed directly into Kaido's head.
As Akainu and Kizaru's attacks struck Kaido simultaneously, Garp's iron fist came crashing in once again.
His fist slammed directly into Kaido's face. With another explosive boom, a terrifying wave of air instantly spread outward from the point of impact, forming a visible ripple in the air.
After striking Kaido one after another, the three men immediately withdrew.
As the three retreated, Aokiji suddenly rose into the air behind Kaido.
Then, the ice blade he had raised high in his hand came slashing down from above.
...
A bone-chilling blade of ice erupted in midair before instantly enveloping Kaido.
Sitting comfortably in Garp's courtyard while drinking tea and eating desserts, Kairo watched as the three Admirals and Garp took turns attacking Kaido without pause.
Kaido had no opportunity to fight back, yet he remained completely motionless beneath their storm-like barrage of attacks.
Holy crap!!!
Seeing this, Kairo blinked blankly, his expression somewhat dazed.
"That's insane. This guy really can't be killed, can he?!"
At first, Kairo had wondered why the three Admirals were so eager to join the battle while the Vice Admirals merely stood to the side and watched.
Now he finally understood.
Looking at the entire Marine Headquarters, even if every Marine below Admiral rank attacked Kaido together, they probably wouldn't be able to hurt this monster at all!
This also made Kairo want to complain about one of the protagonists of the most thrilling battle in the original story—the Summit War's Whitebeard!
The man known as the world's strongest man had not only been stabbed through the heart by his own adopted son, but had also had half his head blown off by Akainu. In the end, even ordinary bullets were able to break through his defenses.
That really seemed unworthy of the title of world's strongest man!
The original story did provide an explanation: his prolonged injuries had caused his physical condition to deteriorate, and his strength had declined considerably.
But he was still supposed to be the strongest existence in the world!
Getting half his head blown off by Akainu, one of the Marines' greatest combat powers, could still be explained. But having random cannon fodder pierce his defenses was difficult to justify!
If the opponent at the Summit War had been Kaido or Big Mom, the Marines below Admiral level probably wouldn't have needed to participate at all.
Because even if they attacked, they wouldn't be able to penetrate the defenses of those monsters.
And that was exactly what was happening now.
Tens of thousands of Marines stood around the battlefield as nothing more than a backdrop. The various Vice Admirals had become loyal spectators, while the three Admirals and Garp had completely suppressed Kaido—
yet they still couldn't kill him!
Another earth-shaking explosion rang out.
Immediately afterward, Kaido, who had endured attacks from all three Admirals, finally couldn't withstand it any longer and was knocked to the ground once again by another punch from Garp.
"Ama no Murakumo Sword!!"
"Ice Blade!!"
The moment Kaido fell, Aokiji and Kizaru attacked almost simultaneously.
Then Akainu also fully transformed into magma and unleashed his final roar,
"Dai Funka!"
The three men attacked Kaido from three different directions, unleashing their strongest powers.
At the same time, Garp leaped into the air once again after knocking Kaido down.
Facing attacks from four of the Marines' greatest combat powers coming from every direction, Kaido, who had just fallen, had no time to react.
All he could do was watch helplessly as the four attacks rapidly expanded in his pupils.
"Die, Kaido!!"
With Akainu's furious roar, the attacks of all four men struck Kaido almost simultaneously.
A series of deafening explosions rang across the sky.
An almost tangible energy barrier instantly expanded outward, completely enveloping an area more than a hundred meters across.
Then, blinding light erupted from within the barrier, illuminating the gloomy sky until it was as bright as day.
After completely engulfing Kaido, the energy barrier suddenly exploded.
For an instant, the entire Marinford fell utterly silent.
The only sound was the silent dissipation of that almost tangible energy barrier, which then converged into a massive shockwave that surged outward like a roaring river.
