At this moment, in the battlefield, the marines had also arrived.
The leading marine colonel recognized Patrick Redfield at first glance. His heart was instantly filled with shock. He hadn't expected the man who had just been killing in the bar to appear here now.
He quickly ordered his soldiers to take cover. He understood that with the opponent strength—if they all charged in—they would only be instantly defeated.
He glanced to the other side, where a masked man who seemed unremarkable at first glance. From the gruesome scene on the field and the loud noise just now, he quickly deduced that a battle had taken place here. And it wasn't over yet.
Following the Redfield gaze, he noticed movement coming from a pile of ruins in the distance.
"Boom!"
A sound of something breaking through the air was heard. A massive figure shot up into the sky, carrying with it tiles that had been flung away by brute force, like a cannonball fired from a barrel, it soared through the high sky.
The next moment, the massive figure landed on the battlefield.
"Kaido?"
The colonel couldn't help but exclaim upon seeing the figure. A member of the Rocks Pirates had appeared here. And it seemed he was now facing off against the Redfield.
"Quick! Recorder!"
Such a scene must be recorded, and the details of the battle must be clearly described. Reporting it to the Marine Headquarters would make future capture efforts much easier.
At this moment, On the battlefield, Kaido feet sank into the ground. The moment he landed, the ground couldn't withstand the immense force and cracks spread all over it. Blood was still oozing from his body. This was the result of Redfield sword strike just now.
"You can see through my movements!" Kaido stared at Redfield and spoke.
After these exchanges, Kaido was certain that the opponent had already seen through his movements the moment he made a move. Only this could explain why every one of his attacks was easily dodged, with no unnecessary movements, clean and precise. If one wasn't confident, they certainly couldn't achieve this level.
"Hahaha! You look like a fool, but you're not stupid after all!" Seeing that Kaido had figured out his ability, Redfield smirked. But there was no trace of panic on his face. Because even if he could see through it, so what? Could he defeat him just like that? That would be nothing but a pipe dream! Moreover, Kaido was destined to die by his hand today.
After playing with Kaido for a while, he would cut off his head and present it to the marines watching from the sidelines.
Thinking this, Redfield glanced toward the marines hidden position.
Instantly, The marines felt a chill in their hearts.
"Did Redfield just glance over here?"
"We might have been discovered!"
"Impossible, we're so far away and completely hidden. He just casually looked in this direction!"
"Stop talking, focus and keep recording!"
....
The marines, seeing Redfield seemingly glance their way, panicked slightly and whispered among themselves. But they had no intention of retreating. Even at the risk of their lives, they had to bring back the intelligence from this battle.
Dozens of eyes remained fixed on the three, continuing to monitor the situation on the battlefield.
Following their line of sight, At this moment, Kaido wound had already stopped bleeding, and the blood ceased to flow.
Suddenly, Kaido slightly raised his head, a sharp glint bursting from his eyes as his aura erupted fiercely. The horns on his head were undergoing some kind of transformation, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. His forehead, arms, and thighs had all turned a bluish-green hue.
Seeing this, The Navy captain frowned slightly and reached for his binoculars. Within the circular frame of the lenses, his eyes slowly widened. Those were bluish-green scales! At this moment, Kaido body was covered in bluish-green scales. They resembled fish scales, yet also dragon scales.
"I never expected it! You're a Devil Fruit user!" Redfield, seeing the transformed Kaido before him, raised an eyebrow slightly.
The ability to manifest symptoms on a human body that should only appear on other animals. There's only one possible explanation. Devil Fruit! And it's of the Zoan type. However, based solely on these changes, Redfield couldn't discern the exact type.
Equally surprised was Bob, who had been observing the battle from the sidelines. He hadn't expected that Kaido, having consumed the Fish-Fish Fruit less than than a month ago, could already display his beast-man form.
The compatibility between this fruit and Kaido was even higher than he had imagined. However, Kaido beast-man form was likely still in its initial stages, as the only changes were the scales and horns. His tail hadn't even grown yet. Compared to the form depicted in the original anime, there was still a significant difference.
"I wonder what kind of Devil Fruit it is?" Redfield continued, looking at Kaido. He was curious about the name of the fruit Kaido had eaten, finding it quite intriguing.
Yet, he showed no trace of panic. Even with Kaido displaying his Devil Fruit abilities, Redfield didn't believe Kaido could match him in battle.
"I'll tell you after you're dead!" Kaido said coldly.
As soon as the words left his mouth, his figure, standing in place, vanished. Leaving a large crater in the ground, with dirt and rocks flying everywhere, he charged towards Redfield. At this moment, Kaido speed and strength had both increased significantly.
"Horai Hakke" With a roar from Kaido, his spiked club spun rapidly, the armament Haki-covered club now resembling an iron wall. It continuously slammed downward.
In an instant, It was already in front of Redfield.
However, in the next moment, Instead of the expected clashing of weapons, A red figure leaped upward just before Kaido attack. And below him was the charging Kaido.
In the next instant, Redfield lips curled slightly as he swung his bat umbrella downward. A sword beam, radiating intense light, shot out, carrying terrifying power straight toward Kaido below.
At this moment. Kaido seemed to sense something, his brow furrowing. The spiked club spinning in his hand was suddenly flung upward.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal being cut rang out, piercingly sharp. The distant Navy soldiers frowned, quickly covering their ears with their hands. In their minds, the ringing of tinnitus still echoed.
At the moment of collision, a shockwave swept outward, causing Bob clothes to flutter violently. The spiked club that Kaido had initially flung away was now sent flying by the shockwave, landing in a distant open area and creating a deep crater.
As for Kaido, he was also sent hurtling through the air.
