"As expected, you truly are a madman." Whitebeard said slowly, looking at Kaido.
Upon learning that Charlotte Linlin and Imperius were about to erupt in a fiery battle, Whitebeard knew that Kaido would definitely intervene.
So, when he received the intelligence, he was already waiting for Kaido's arrival. As expected, Whitebeard waited here for two days and finally waited for Kaido.
As for why he intercepted Kaido here, probably only Whitebeard knew.
"Whitebeard, Ye Chen has no grievances with you. You have no reason to block me here!" Kaido said, slowly standing up, his eyes sharp as swords, locking onto Whitebeard.
"Wahahaha, you're right. I truly don't know Ye Chen that well, I just had a drink with him." Whitebeard burst out laughing, then shrugged: "But I find him more pleasing to the eye."
"Hahaha, you block me just because you find him more pleasing to the eye? You're truly Whitebeard." Kaido laughed heartily, shrugging, his voice carrying a hint of gloom: "But I find him displeasing. Today, we'll see if you can stop me."
"The strongest man in the world, Whitebeard."
As he spoke, he suddenly erupted, stomping his foot. The small boat beneath his feet exploded, and his entire body, like a dead man, greeted Whitebeard.
"Whether you can pass depends on your ability."
Whitebeard grumbled, then shrugged. His great coat fell to the ground, and he held a large scythe, glaring at Kaido.
"Clang clang clang."
In mid-air, Kaido's massive fist met Whitebeard's large scythe. As their weapons clashed, a dull sound instantly echoed in the air.
A colossal shockwave, centered on the two, dispersed, sweeping in all directions.
The shockwave was like a hurricane. Strong winds rose, the sea churned, and the pirate ship beneath Whitebeard's feet swayed.
In the aftermath of the two explosive attacks, the sea surface was instantly blown open, as if split apart, revealing the darkness beneath the seabed.
"Gurgle gurgle."
The Sea Kings hidden deep beneath the sea let out several terrified cries, looking up at the sky in great fear.
Those two figures.
"Hahahaha, as expected of Whitebeard, truly strong." Kaido's face was excited, as he charged directly, completely unafraid of Whitebeard's attack, like a human tank, directly confronting Whitebeard.
"Wahahaha, the legend of the great sea is true, you really are a madman." Whitebeard's face showed no fear, greatly excited. The large scythe in his hand moved like a tiger in the wind, very mighty.
At this moment, the tip of Whitebeard's large scythe emanated transparent ripples, slashing directly at Kaido.
And Kaido, seeing Whitebeard's attack, didn't dodge in the slightest. His eyes blazed with intense fighting spirit, and his hands condensed Armament Haki, emitting a steely glow that was unyielding.
"Clang."
Suddenly, a sound like shattering glass rang out. The air at the point of impact rippled, as if about to shatter.
Space shattered, and a powerful shock instantly radiated, as if a shockwave spread towards Kaido.
Only a dull sound echoed. Kaido's body felt as if it had been struck by a heavy object and was sent flying directly.
"Old man, did you repel Kaido?" Marco, who had been watching the battle from behind, saw Kaido being repelled and emerged, staring at Whitebeard with a pair of dead fish eyes.
The battle between the two was too terrifying. The aftermath of the battle was not something ordinary people could withstand.
Even someone like him had to treat such an aftermath with caution.
However, with Whitebeard's personality, he wouldn't let Marco intervene.
Open and aboveboard, righteous and honest, this was Whitebeard's style of doing things.
And it was precisely because of this personality that many people gathered under his banner.
Everyone who became his subordinate addressed him as: "Old man."
"Not that easy." Whitebeard's expression was grave, and he shrugged: "This attack can cause damage to others, but it's far from enough to deal with Kaido. I estimate it didn't cause him any harm at all."
"He's actually that strong?" Marco's face was stunned, and he said incredulously, with shock on his face.
Even if he himself were to face that attack from Whitebeard, he would have to treat it with caution. Moreover, if he took a direct hit, he might even be seriously injured.
Yet, such an attack had no effect on Kaido.
The two were actually this powerful.
"He's immortal Kaido," Whitebeard shook his head.
"Hahaha, Whitebeard, fighting you is truly exhilarating, but this little attack can't kill me."
Suddenly, a figure suddenly shot out from the sea, charging directly at Whitebeard.
"Marco, fall back." Whitebeard said in a low voice, his posture opening up as he spoke, his expression grim.
Upon hearing this, Marco did not dare to hesitate. He activated his phoenix abilities and flew towards the ship's cabin.
Suddenly, a green light flashed and descended from the sky, striking Kaido in an instant and knocking him down.
"Who is it?" Whitebeard's tiger-like eyes narrowed, and he roared sharply.
At this moment, a white figure slowly walked out, her face pale and expressionless, looking at Whitebeard.
"Urouge." Whitebeard's pupils contracted, and he muttered in a low voice.
At this moment, Urouge looked at Whitebeard. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Lord Ye Chen, Whitebeard is here." Urouge thought to himself.
Not long after, Ye Chen's voice came: "Why is he here?"
Urouge looked at Whitebeard's battle stance in front of him, and then thought of Kaido, who had been knocked down by him. He immediately made a judgment in his heart.
"I estimate he's helping us stop Kaido."
"Is that so?" Ye Chen's voice rang out, and he shrugged: "Go tell Whitebeard that Imperius owes him a favor."
"And tell Whitebeard that he doesn't need to make a move. You go and block Kaido. Of course, it would be best if you could kill him."
After saying this, Ye Chen ended the communication.
Urouge heard this and remained silent for a moment. He walked on air and headed towards Whitebeard.
"Imperius owes you a favor," Urouge said expressionlessly to Whitebeard in a low voice.
Whitebeard heard this and was stunned for a moment, then reacted and chuckled: "The value of Imperius's favor is immeasurable!"
Urouge looked at Whitebeard and said:
"As long as your request does not go against Lord Ye Chen's wishes, we can help you achieve it."
"For example."
"Even if you ask us to go to the Holy Land and kill a hundred World Nobles, it's fine."
