Chapter 137

Title: King of the Beasts, Kaido (1)

....

Hours ago – in Dressrosa, Doflamingo was escorting 2 people out of the Royal Palace.

The sound of three people's footsteps were overlapping each other as they finally reached the rooftop of the Palace.

The two guests walked in front while Doffy stopped a few steps behind them, waiting for them to turn around.

As Doffy thought, they both turned around and looked at him.

The large and buff man with a tattoo and scar on his torso laughed. "Wororo, Doflamingo, you don't have to escort us any further. This is enough."

Hearing him, Doffy snickered. "Kukuku, as you wish Kaido. Though I don't mind escorting you to Wano if you want."

"Hm..." Besides the other man, another tall figure wearing a black suit covering him head to toe nodded. "No need. Kaido-sama and I have work to do."

Indeed, they were Kaido and King!

They exchanged some more words before King opened his mouth again. "Alright, then we will be off then. Keep up the good work, Warlord."

Doffy nodded as Kaido ignored them and transformed into his Dragon form, leaping into the air. King followed suit.

As their figures vanished, Doffy could only sigh in relief. "Sigh..."

He then gulped his saliva.

This past week, Doflamingo was thoroughly considering if he should tell Kaido about Amon's small trip here or not.

Instantly, he shook his head. 'No, no. T-That bastard will definitely kill me. Even if Kaido does kill him later on, I am sure before dying, I would be executed by him along with my family.'

Clenching his fist hard, Doffy chuckled. He couldn't believe he'd be cornered like this one day.

'Anyways, it's better to keep Kaido in the dark, or else both of these crazy Emperor bastards will be after me. Kukuku~'

Doffy chuckled nervously while from afar, Viola was observing everything with her devil fruit ability.

Fwah!

King flapped his wings as he passed by some birds in the sky. He was somewhat faster than Kaido, but he was still following behind him.

After a while, his earbuds rung, he slowed down to receive the call. Not long after, King went towards Kaido's massive face.

While the wind was blowing fast and rough, the two started to chat.

"Kaido-sama!"

"What is it, King?" Kaido replied to him in his usual tone.

"Kaido-sama, the guy we are after, bounty hunter Cidre. He's started a fight with the Beasts Pirates already. Since there are only the gifters against them, it seems we are losing."

Kaido's veins started emerging upon hearing that. "Huh? Then speed up, King. Worororo!!"

Kaido's speed drastically increased as he used more yellow clouds to help his flight. King also increased his speed.

«...★...»

Cidre is a bounty hunter, one of the few bounty hunters working in the New World. For a while, he was called the best at his field before Amon came to be.

Cidre has a deep hatred for pirates, especially Devil Fruit-using ones, and possesses a serious desire to kill them all. This desire is not out of any sort of altruism but rather stems entirely from a love of money and the desire to gain revenge after being attacked by Douglas Bullet many years ago.

In canon, he was pretty weak and was prone to boasting about his purely weapon-based abilities and was confident that he could take down any pirate, even monstrous ones like Bullet, Boa Hancock and Monkey D. Luffy even though he lacked any forms of special abilities like Devil Fruits or Haki.

However, all those were boasts as he was always defeated like any typical villain. Nonetheless, working under Amon, he was forced to learn Haki and was much more powerful than his canon counterpart.

Being a part of Amon's hidden battalion, Cidre was forced to do as Amon asked him, so he was now distracting the Beasts Pirates according to his boss' orders.

However, he wasn't scared, rather he was excited. Being arrogant, he heavily underestimated all the Emperors other than Amon. He even assumed when Kaido would come, he might kill him!

Obviously, today, only death waited for him.

...

When Kaido"s troops arrived to fight off Cidre's guild a while ago, the battle was one-sided and the bounty hunters were on the winning side.

The guild and the pirates were fighting because of one rumor – the guild supposedly holds an Ancient Zoan, and Kaido wants the fruit. He wanted to simply buy it from the guild, but Cidre refused.

In truth, this was a ploy and such a fruit never existed. Amon planned to use Cidre as a decoy to keep Kaido busy for a while, even if it's an hour. He knew Cidre would die, but his value to him was too little to even care.

Bam!

Cidre and his guild were fighting the Beasts Pirates' gifters, they were easily handled with Cidre guild's water weapons. The guild possesses surprisingly good and high-tech weapons, this was shown in the movie and anime too.

The fight was taking place in the middle of the sea, there were no islands around, only the blue sea was in sight. In the sea, there were more than 40 ships surrounding another big ship, the ship of Cidre's guild.

Dhu Dhu Dhu!

From the big ship, Cidre fired a water cannon towards one of the Beast Pirate's ships which brought it down easily.

"Shuwawawa! Emperor of the sea?! This is easier than I thought!"

Cidre laughed as he continued to shoot down the ships. There were many ships, but they were no match for Cidre's water guns, after all, they were reinforced by space technology.

Even though the Beasts Pirates had the advantage in number, their 40 ships seemed to be on the losing end. They were being attacked with hydro cannons and railguns fired from the big ship while they were just shooting measly cannonballs.

Things were looking good for Cidre – however, they were soon about to take a turn.

Not long after the sky turned dark, it wasn't because of clouds rather because of a large entity.

"ROAAR!"

It was the King of the Beasts, Kaido.

Cidre finally understood, he made a big mistake. He felt his blood freeze from the sight of a Dragon.

Minutes later.

King stood beside Kaido who was standing on the deck of one of the 40 ships.

"Kaido-sama, since this job is already done, you should head back. I will take care of the small things here."

"Yeah... This wasn't fun at all." Kaido replied grumpily.

While both of them were chattering, beside them in the sea, the leftovers of a wrecked ship were floating. They had burning marks, indicating the use of heat breath.

Kaido lightly massaged his neck as he looked at King. "King, it was a waste of time to come here. I will go now, take care of the small fries that survived, ya got that?"

King nodded. "Yes, Kaido-sama."

Kaido didn't spare any more time as he transformed into his dragon form and leaped in the sky, going towards Wano using an Eternal Log Pose.

....

That's how we come here – in Onigashima, while Yamato gained her consciousness under the debris of Jack's broken mansion, Kaido's shadow fell upon her.

Kaido, with his veins pronounced, asked her. "Yamato, what happened here?"

Yamato gulped in intimidation.

It was clear what the King of the Beasts would do when his subordinate was killed, and most importantly when the diary of Oden was stolen.

«...★...»

Meanwhile, in the sea far from Wano, inside the ship of Spade Pirates, Amon was talking on a tone dial.

From the other side, a sweet feminine voice sounded out. ["Yes, Kaido left Dressrosa hours ago."]

Without saying anything, Amon cut the line of the dial and looked in the sky.

It was quite hard to notice his small smile under the mask. Rather than a disaster, this seemed like an opportunity. "I wonder how it would be like to fight the King of the Beasts."

'How far have I come...?' Amon was excited about the fight.

He knew, now that Kaido was back, a fight between them was inevitable if he wanted Ace to get out of here safely and join the Whitebeard Pirates.

He was confident enough to hold up against Kaido, at least for a few days. 'Meh, I might even successfully kill him.'
