"Is he trying to get himself killed? A Devil Fruit user actually charging into the sea?"
Momonosuke eyes were filled with confusion. His body was still weak and he couldn't even muster the courage to flee.
He watched helplessly as wave after wave of people rushed past him, yet not a single one spared a glance at the rightful ruler of Wano Country.
It was as if he were nothing but air.
"DAMN IT!" Momonosuke seethed with anger and helplessness.
"Momonosuke."
A faint voice suddenly reached his ears, startling him so badly that his massive dragon body shuddered.
He turned his head and saw Yamato sneaking up beside him, whispering urgently.
"Yamato!" Momonosuke exclaid in delight.
Yamato pressed a finger to her lips, signaling for silence, then whispered.
"Momonosuke, as your father, I won't stand by and watch you die. Calm yourself, revert to your human form and I'll get you out of here."
A flash of mockery, disdain and even hatred flickered in Momonosuke dragon eyes.
This delusional woman—the daughter of the man who had murdered his father—had sohow convinced herself she was Kozuki Oden.
She could entertain herself with that fantasy all she wanted, but this lunatic actually expected everyone else to acknowledge her as Oden too.
To Momonosuke, this was beyond absurd—it was downright insane.
Though disgusted and repulsed by Yamato's behavior, Momonosuke knew he needed her help to escape this hellhole.
Gritting his teeth, he forced himself to calm down. His body gradually shrank, transforming back into the seemingly handso young man.
Yamato quickly stepped forward, stroking Momonosuke head with a loving gaze.
But Momonosuke's eyes were filled with lust as they fixated on Yamato chest, his perverse thoughts stirring once more.
If not for the life-or-death situation at hand, he would've indulged in his favorite pasti right then and there.
"F-Father…" Momonosuke feigned panic, calling out timidly.
Yamato hand froze.
Her body trembled, her chest heaving violently.
That single word—Father—shattered Yamato's composure.
Her eyes welled up, lips quivering as she ruffled Momonosuke hair fiercely and pulled him into a tight embrace.
Momonosuke's eyes glead as he buried his face in Yamato' chest, inhaling greedily.
"Alright, Momonosuke. Let's get out of here! Now!"
Yamato spoke with relief, grabbing Momonosuke's hand and turning to flee.
But just as she turned, a towering figure blocked their path.
"Yamato, I won't lose you again. Stay. In a few days, I'll take you to Linlin's place. She'll erase everything from your mind—Kozuki Oden, Wano, all those painful mories. And if you want, I'll have her daughter implant whatever happy mories you desire."
Kaido lood over them, his gaze fixed solely on Yamato.
Momonosuke fate ant nothing to him.
"NO! I won't let you do this!" Yamato roared, shielding Momonosuke behind her like a mother hen protecting her chick.
Only then did Kaido eyes shift to Momonosuke.
Momonosuke body trembled violently, his legs shaking like leaves in a storm.
"If you don't agree, I'll kill him." Kaido gaze was icy and rciless, looking at Momonosuke as if he were already a corpse.
"Kaido! Wano Country has already been destroyed by you people. Why can't you just let us go? We'll leave Wano and never appear in your sight again!" Yamato eyes were red, voice trembling with emotion.
Kaido stony face twitched slightly, but ultimately returned to its cold indifference.
Completely desperate, Yamato pushed Momonosuke away and shouted.
"MOMONOSUKE, RUN! I'll hold him off!"
Pale-faced, Momonosuke glanced at Kaido before running desperately in the opposite direction.
"Do it then! Why aren't you moving?" Yamato scread.
Kaido remained unmoved, coldly stating "Stay and he can leave alive."
"AHHHH! I'll fight you to the death!"
Unable to accept it, Yamato body sprouted snow-white fur as she transford into her Mythical beast form, charging at Kaido like a moth to fla.

By the seaside, the Beast Pirates had gathered in massive numbers, staring in shock at the ocean where an enormous, pitch-black fish of unimaginable size had appeared.
"Caesar-sama... has turned into a giant fish again!" Queen gaped in astonishnt.
"Mamamama, Caesar, are you trying to devour that giant elephant to evolve further?" Big Mom said excitedly.
Smoothie and others stood dumbfounded.
"Devour that elephant? How is that possible?"
"Mamamama, in this world, there's nothing Caesar wants to do that he can't accomplish. Your father is a man who can do anything as long as he will it!" Big Mom laughed proudly.
On the sea, Caesar massive jaws opened, swallowing billions of tons of seawater.
He strained to open his maw wider, attempting to consu Zou whole.
"Damn it, this thing's still too big! Taking it in one bite isn't really possible!" Caesar grumbled in frustration.
From the giant elephant, Caesar saw the potential for further advancent.
He could clearly feel his Oni blood boiling—this was the biological instinct, the thirst for evolution.
And the stimulus for this evolutionary instinct was none other than the giant elephant Zou before him!
As Zou toppled into the sea, the Mink Tribe that had lived on its back all fell into the ocean, desperately swimming toward shore. The violent waves proved too much for so unfortunate souls, who were dragged into the depths of the sea.
"Ah! There's still half of the elephant's trunk I specifically threw into the sea—I almost forgot!"
Suddenly invigorated, Caesar imdiately began scanning the seabed.
Monts later, he found the mountain-sized trunk lying quietly on the ocean floor.
Slurp!
Caesar mouth generated terrifying suction, drawing the massive trunk into his maw.
"Hmm?"
The trunk slid effortlessly down his throat—leading directly to his abdon.
Yet within this island-sized fish body, there was no biological structure to speak of.
Caesar Kunpeng form contained no internal organs—no teeth, no stomach, no intestines.
His belly was more like a dark void filled with destructive, peculiar energy.
Anything swallowed by Caesar would be ground down by this strange energy, its impurities refined away while the essence was extracted and stored within the Kunpeng's body.
The mont the elephant trunk entered his stomach, it was swiftly broken down and absorbed by Caesar.
In the blink of an eye, it shattered into wisps of extrely pure life force, even more intense than Caesar own blood!
The massive Kunpeng couldn't help but let out a joyful cry.
Having maintained a length of ten thousand ters for decades without any change, his body suddenly began to grow rapidly!
Eleven thousand ters, eleven thousand five hundred ters, twelve thousand ters!
In an instant, the Kunpeng enormous body grew by two thousand ters!
