If Sengoku doesn't pull back his net soon, I'll become the Pirate King!

Chapter 36 [Giants, Never to be Slaves!]

"lose?"

"Crackling sound!!"

Brogy discarded his badly damaged shield, his eyes gleaming with even stronger fighting spirit.

"I am a valiant warrior of the giant race!"

"The giants only have soldiers who die in battle; they have no soldiers who surrender!"

"The glory of the god of Elbaf will guide me to heaven!"

Broki roared as he gripped his giant axe with both hands and assumed a charging stance.

"Humans, state your names!!"

"Bazaar, a pirate."

"Very good, I will remember your name forever, even after I die, I will etch this name into my soul!"

Broki strode toward Bazel.

"You've given me a truly exhilarating battle!"

"Your power has made me realize that humans are not all insignificant. Giants, never..."

Just when Bazel thought Broki would say--

Giants will never be slaves!!

hour.

"Never surrender!"

"What a pity, I didn't get to hear that classic quote."

Bazel sighed, without making any effort to build up his strength.

The body defied common sense, accelerating from a standstill to its maximum speed in just one breath.

The ground shattered by the shockwave of the explosion.

The flames that coiled around its body created a dazzling trail of fire.

Bazel did not use the other three Phantom Serpent Spirits.

Firstly, the three elements that control quantity are not enough to control the berserk giants in front of them.

Secondly, it's because Bazell doesn't want to.

Giants are warriors, and how could they not yearn for battle?

There are many ways to become stronger, but only one way will not violate the laws of nature.

That's sweat!

Only by putting in unimaginable effort can one reap the fruits of victory and glory.

This battle was not a true life-or-death struggle.

That's why Bazel cherishes this battle even more.

His current physical condition is not yet sufficient to support him in participating in truly high-level games.

In both of his encounters with Shiki, Kaido was there to assist him.

Otherwise, given his abilities, if he were to face Shiki alone, defeat would be inevitable.

Don't be fooled by how badly Shiki was beaten by manipulating the elements last time; that's about it.

Neither the earth dragon nor the thunder serpent could threaten Shiki's life.

As for why he didn't use the Phantom Serpent to take Shiki's two swords...

Shiki's Conqueror's Haki is stronger than Kaido's at this stage. If Bazel dares to do that...

Even if they manage to get in, they'll most likely be killed by Conqueror's Haki.

This battle, however, is completely different.

In terms of pure strength, Shiki should be no match for Brogy.

If we add other things...

Then Brogy would definitely be completely crushed by Shiki.

Bazel knew his strongest weapon at the moment was his strange, stackable snake venom.

However, he couldn't use snake venom in his fight against Brogy, which was tantamount to cutting off his own arm.

Fortunately, the emergence of Gear Second has made up for the current lack of Devil Fruit abilities.

[The "spectator seats" outside the battlefield]

One by one, the trees collapsed with a crash. Kaido walked to Toki's side and dropped the giant arm he was carrying on his shoulder.

"How's it going on with Bazel?"

"Mr. Kaido? Congratulations on winning the battle."

Tengetsu first offered his congratulations, then explained the battle between Bazel and Broki.

"I see, so a new stance has been developed?"

Kaido stared at Bazel, who was charging at full speed, his eyes flashing red.

fluctuation.

Scorching hot.

high temperature……

"A strange development direction. Did Bazel choose a development approach similar to Lingling's?"

"Mr. Kaido, is there any risk involved?" Amatsuki asked nervously, sensing the implication in his words.

"There's no risk involved."

Kaido's first words gave Azuki Toki a slight sense of relief, but his next words made the girl's heart leap into her throat again.

"If this move fails, Bazel will likely be burst by the power within his body."

"What?!"

Tianyue Shi: (Ò^Ó) Shocked!

"Self-destruct?! How could Bazel use such a dangerous move?!"

"This is Bazel's belief!"

With his arms crossed, Kaido's face was full of admiration.

"Bazaar is my brother, and I believe he would never die over something so trivial!"

"If he can't even control his own power, he's not qualified to be the second member of the Beasts Pirates after me, ughhhh!!!"

"Hey, Bazel!"

"How long are you planning to keep playing around? I've already taken care of the enemy!"

Bazel retreated several steps, dodging the enemy's downward-slashing giant axe.

"Kaido-san, don't compare me to a monster like you. I'm a human, just an ordinary human."

"Are you saying I'm not human?!" Kaido laughed and cursed.

"I wouldn't dare."

Amidst the laughter, a red light flashed in Bazel's eyes, and he suddenly shifted his body to the right.

He then grabbed the flame with his left hand and smashed it to his side.

The giant axe, which was falling just in time, was hit by the left fist. The red light of the explosion sent the giant axe flying, and also disrupted its owner's balance.

"The opportunity has arrived."

He strode forward, propelled by the explosive force of his feet.

"Second Form: Sunburst - Modified!"

Arriving at the enemy's side almost instantaneously, Bazel unleashed a fatal blow.

The fiery tail that erupted from his elbow amplified the power of the attack several times over.

[Buzz--]

Broki felt his consciousness fading and his vision going white. His hand holding the sword loosened instinctively, and he fell to the side.

Rumble!!

As he fell from the sky, the steam emanating from Bazel's body quickly dissipated, and as the seven snake spirits emerged from his body, their scales swiftly disappeared beneath his skin.

"What a great victory! Hahaha~~"

He retreated to Tianyue's side.

"Let me rest for a bit. I still need to work on my persuasive skills. I'll leave the hunting of ingredients to you."

"You bastard, you really know how to order people around."

Kaido extended his fist.

The two men's fists collided.

"Well done this time. I know you haven't used your full strength yet. Let's fight after this is over."

"I want to see just how strong you really are when you go all out!"

Bazel did not back down in the face of Kaido's challenge.

"No problem, but you're not allowed to whine if you cry after being beaten."

"Get lost, you disrespectful bastard! I'm the captain!"

Kaido laughed and cursed as he punched Bazel, then turned and walked deeper into the island.

"Leave the hunting to me; you're in charge of starting the fire."

Only after Kaido left did Amezuki begin to express his concern.

A pair of delicate white hands moved over Bazel's body, trying to find out if there were any aftereffects.

"Honestly, you're not allowed to use such dangerous techniques next time. If Mr. Kaido hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known your abilities were so dangerous!"

"This is my power."

Bazel slumped to the ground, utterly exhausted.

"If you can't even conquer your own strength, what right do you have to conquer this ocean?"

"You~"

Knowing she couldn't persuade him otherwise, Tian Yueshi simply knelt down and let the man's head rest on her thigh.

The scalding heat of their skin against each other, combined with the man's warm breath, caused Amagi Shi's fair skin to blush pink.

"White?"

Tian Yue blinked, then her pretty face turned bright red, and puffs of white steam rose from the top of her head.

With her right hand, she straightened Bazel's head, while her left hand held down her skirt tightly.

"Seriously! You pervert, where are you looking?! I was hoping you could get some rest!!"

There's an old saying in my hometown that goes something like this...

"Men are creatures who are often powerless and unable to control their emotions."

"You're such a chatterbox~" Tianyue Shi's face was still flushed, but her fingers were gently rubbing the man's temples.

Bazel simply turned his body around, facing the sky, and slowly closed his eyelids.

"Those dinosaurs shouldn't dare come near here for a while. Please call me in twenty minutes."

"Okay~"

Bazel: (¦3[▓▓] ZZzzz...

"What a tough man."

Not far away, Broki slowly sat up, using his hands to help his chin return to its proper place.

"It's been a long time, Miss Shi. The last time we met..."

"I remember it was in the year 1402 of the Haiyuan calendar, right?"

Amatsuki smiled and nodded: "Yes, after meeting the three of you that time, I continued my journey."

Broki sat not far from Tianyue Shi, looking down at the sleeping man.

"It seems you've found the person you've been looking for. Is he the warrior who will liberate Wano Country in the future?"

Amatsuki also looked down at Bazel, his eyes full of tenderness.

She supported the man's head with her left hand and gently stroked his cheek with her right.

"It must be him, Bazel must be the one I'm looking for!"
