"How arrogant Kaido is!"
Moria slowly drew his nearly three-meter-long sword.
"But as the strongest in the West Sea, you should indeed look like this!"
"Hmph, I'm not like those guys who like to fight a rabbit with all their might against any opponent."
Kaido stood there with his arms crossed, completely relaxed.
"When faced with a challenge from the weak, I prefer to give you ample opportunity to challenge me, until you fully realize the gap between us and willingly kneel at my feet!"
"Hehehehe! Since you like giving me chances so much, then go die!!"
Moria brandished his greatsword and charged straight at them.
The blade sliced through the air, leaving a trail of light, and struck Kaido directly on the neck.
Ding--
With a soft hum, a finger blocked Moria's blade.
Kaido did not use any Haki, nor did he use Finger Pistol or Iron Body techniques.
With just his ordinary skin, he blocked Moria's attack.
"No...impossible!!"
Moria's pupils contracted instantly as he stared intently at the point where the blade met his fingers.
"How could a person possibly stop a blade with just their skin?!"
"Well, nothing is impossible in this world. Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!"
"What a joke! I don't believe such an outrageous thing could happen!!"
Moria roared, sheathed his sword, and slashed again.
He swung his gleaming silver broadsword, leaving a trail of afterimages.
Hiss hiss hiss...
Kaido stood there without moving a finger, letting Moria cut all his clothes into strips of cloth.
After a long while, Moria stopped moving and gasped for breath.
He stared blankly at Kaido, whose entire body, except for his private parts, was almost entirely exposed to the sunlight.
Muscles are bulging, with tight and explosive arm and leg muscles.
His pectoral muscles are a large inverted triangle, and his eight-pack abs are clearly defined.
Apart from a shallow scar running from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, he had no other scars on his body.
"How...how is this possible..."
"They really are... completely unharmed..."
Moria looked down at his greatsword again.
The blade, the part that slashed Kaido the most times, is already showing signs of chipping!
In that instant, Moria fully realized the gap between himself and Kaido.
"After all my training, I can't even break Kaido's skin..."
Such a huge gap, and this is even with Kaido standing still, relaxed, letting him slash at him.
What if Kaido really makes a move?
Moria stared blankly up at the scar on Kaido's chest.
'Such a powerful body, yet a strong person was able to leave a scar on him...'
At that moment, Moria fully realized the vastness of the world.
There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding!
The old saying from the Land of Flowers is truly accurate!
Clang.
Moria dropped his sword and bowed his head in defeat.
"I've lost..."
"Hmm, so decisive?"
Kaido laughed, "I haven't really made my move yet!"
"There's no need... You stood there letting me chop you down, but I couldn't even break your skin. There's no need to continue this fight."
Moria's lightning-fast knee slide surprised Kaido.
However, considering his overweight and nerdy appearance in the original timeline, Moria's mentality was indeed not as firm as that of other powerful individuals.
Looks like I need to teach this kid a lesson!
Thinking of this, Kaido clenched his fist.
"Kid, although you've officially joined the Beasts Pirates the moment you surrendered, this battle cannot end with defeat!!"
"What defines a strong person?!"
Kaido's voice suddenly rose in pitch.
"In the dictionary of the strong, the word 'admit defeat' does not exist!"
Even if you are no match for someone stronger, you must have the determination to fight to the death!
"If you can't do this, you'll never become a true powerhouse!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kaido swung his giant fist in Moria's stunned gaze.
The enormous fist compresses the air, forming a cone-shaped shield directly in front of it.
boom! !
As the aura expanded, Moria shot out like a cannonball, crashing through several buildings before finally embedding himself in a thick wall, creating a huge dent.
His eyes rolled back and he collapsed, utterly powerless.
"Hehehe, go pick him up. From today onwards, he's a member of my Beasts Pirates!"
Machima leaped into the air, her body vanishing and instantly reappearing dozens of meters away.
She flashed to Moria's side in a few moments.
The slender arms displayed tremendous strength, lifting Moria's over 4-meter-tall body completely.
He slowly walked back to Kaido's side.
"Let's go straight back to the ship. There's no point in staying in this town anymore."
With that, Kaido turned and left.
Olga and Olvia followed closely behind.
Machima held Moria's upper body up with both hands, letting his legs drag on the ground, and followed behind.
After Kaido and the others left, a murmur of discussion immediately broke out at the scene.
"That's incredible!!"
"He has absolutely no defense; even a knife can't cut through his skin!!"
"And with just one punch, he sent Moria flying that far!!"
"As expected of Kaido, the strongest in the West Blue!!"
"The strongest in the West Blue! The strongest creature! Yes! Kaido, the strongest creature in the West Blue!!"
……
Kaido ignored the commotion behind him and, after returning to the ship, immediately handed Moria over to the ship's doctor to deal with.
The ship's doctors were in a flurry of activity, but after successfully bandaging Moria's wounds, Moria slowly regained consciousness.
"Unfamiliar ceiling..."
He was still a little dazed after just waking up, and the words Kaido had said earlier kept flashing through his mind.
"For a strong person, the word 'admitting defeat' does not exist in their dictionary..."
Moria struggled to sit up in bed, observing his surroundings and instinctively asking the doctor who was packing his things to leave.
"Where is this place?"
"On the boat."
"The ship of beasts?"
"That's right!"
Where is Kaido?
"Captain Kaido should be in the training room right now giving Miss Olga special training."
Where is the training room?
"Never mind, I'll have a nurse take you there directly."
Moria jumped out of bed, and a wave of pain immediately washed over him.
But he held back, then took a step and followed a nurse who was leading the way for him.
He wasn't surprised by his current situation.
After all, the agreement before the battle began was that the loser would join the Beasts Pirates.
Moria was simply very curious about how Kaido had become so powerful.
