"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Amidst the heavy explosions, Bullet soared through the sky like a fierce bird of prey.
The pirates on the ground couldn't stop him in the slightest.
"Oi, oi, oi! That's really Douglas Bullet, isn't it?"
On the icy plains, Queen tilted his head back, watching as Bullet sped toward the peak of Onigashima. A shiver ran down his spine. "That monster actually joined forces with that brat Ian?"
This was the so-called Demon Heir—a true monster!
Before Ian appeared, Bullet had been recognized as the most gifted monster across the seas.
But how did that little punk do it?
How did he manage to recruit soone as solitary and untad as Bullet?
To be honest, when King ca back and told him Douglas Bullet had joined Ian's crew, Queen had already given up hope of winning this war.
Their strength simply wasn't on the sa level.
But that didn't an Queen would just surrender!
Don't joke with him—if he lost, he'd at least lose gloriously!
And more importantly—
The massive brachiosaurus' eyes glowed red, locking onto a tall figure standing behind the enemy's ranks.
"Hancock, huh? You damn brat! Just you wait!"
Queen gritted his teeth. "It's finally ti for to take my revenge!"
During the last battle atop Onigashima, he'd been instantly turned to stone by that woman, Hancock.
The fury and humiliation in his heart were beyond words.
But today… today was his chance to settle the score!
His chest burned with resolve.
For the honor of the Beasts Pirates' Chief Scientist!
To counter that woman's troubleso ability, Queen had even modified his own eyes!
Now his vision was chanical, able to shift through multiple modes. At this mont, he switched to heat-sensing mode—seeing only heat signatures.
He couldn't even see Hancock's appearance anymore. He wanted to know how her ability could work against him now.
Co on, brat!
Let's see how you handle my laser cannons when I burn you to ash!
High above, King's gaze hardened as he watched Bullet stepping across the air.
Should he stop this man?
It seed Bullet's target was none other than Kaido-sama.
But what would happen after stopping him?
King knew one thing clearly—alone, he could never hope to defeat Douglas Bullet.
And letting him rampage through their ranks would be an even greater disaster.
Ian's side still had Yamato and Hancock.
The number of high-level fighters was simply too many.
In that case, it was better to let Ian go and challenge Kaido directly.
After all, Kaido would never lose.
And Ian, who had always aid for Kaido as his ultimate target, would never join forces with Bullet to gang up on him.
If so, this might actually hold back both Bullet and Ian, the two strongest fighters.
With this thought in mind, King no longer hesitated and spread his wings, diving down toward the battlefield.
"Kaido!!"
Unstopped by anyone, Bullet reached the very peak of Onigashima, landing with a thunderous crash not far from Kaido. His burning gaze fixed upon Ian's teacher.
"The world's strongest creature!"
Bullet's grin stretched wide, but there was no warmth in that smile—only cruelty and bloodlust. "Let's fight to the death!"
"Oh?"
Kaido looked at Bullet, who was still a full head shorter than him, and his lips curved into a mocking grin. "That brat Ian actually managed to ta soone like you?"
Bullet cracked his neck and replied casually, "I was simply outmatched. Nothing more to say."
"Wororororo!"
Kaido drew out his beloved kanabo, the Hassaikai, and looked down on Bullet from above. "So, if I defeat you as well, does that an you'll submit to ?"
Bullet's grin grew wider. "You? Make submit?"
In the next instant, the ground beneath their feet shattered, rocks exploding upward like a storm, soaring hundreds of ters into the air.
"Thunder Bagua!!"
"Explosive gaton Punch!!"
Iron club and iron fist collided midair.
As usual, the clash erupted in jet-black lightning of Conqueror's Haki, tearing through the heavens in an instant and splitting the sky apart.
"As expected… another monster!"
Queen, charging forward with heavy steps, turned his head toward the peak of Onigashima. The black lightning of Haki continued to surge skyward.
Conqueror's Haki infusion!
Without a doubt, Bullet had also mastered this technique!
That man truly possessed power on par with an Emperor!
At the top of Onigashima…
The two absolute warriors clashed violently at that very mont.
"Wororororo! You haven't disappointed , Bullet!!"
Kaido roared with laughter.
The iron club in Kaido's hand swung with such force that it created afterimages, as if dozens—hundreds—of clubs were crashing down on Bullet all at once.
"Gunbai—Dragon Army Formation!!"
"This is only the beginning!"
Bullet laughed as well, a wild, booming laugh.
Yes!
This was the kind of battle he had been waiting for!
His fight with that bastard Ian had ended far too quickly. That guy's power was absurd, leaving Bullet no chance to taste the joy of a true life-or-death clash.
But now—it was different!
"Cannon teor Shower!"
Bullet roared with laughter as his jet-black fists beca a raging storm, clashing again and again against Kaido's club.
Both n wielded Advanced Armant Haki of Internal Destruction and Conqueror's Infusion. Each strike collided through the air, every impact exploding into torrents of crackling Haki lightning!
Neither dodged, neither defended—they simply stood their ground, trading blows endlessly.
The entirety of Onigashima trembled under their clash, as though it might shatter apart at any mont.
In truth, their fighting styles were very similar.
Both relied mainly on physical might and Haki, with their Devil Fruit abilities serving only as support.
So it was no surprise that their battle beca so fierce and unrelenting.
"Gurarararara!"
"Wahahahaha!"
The intensity of the fight drove them both into laughter, unable to contain the thrill of combat.
Their obsession with battle—that was the part of their souls most alike.
But as the duel dragged on, Bullet slowly began to realize sothing.
In both raw strength and Haki, he was still just a step below this monster before him.
"Gurarararara! Ti to show a new move, you bastard! Thunderous Bagua!!"
With a ferocious swing, Kaido's club smashed Bullet back, and he bellowed with laughter.
"Then I won't hold back either!"
Without hesitation, Bullet awakened!
A surge of violet matter spread outward from beneath his feet, sweeping across the ground in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the entire island of Onigashima was engulfed.
The ships docked at the harbor, and the vast stores of weapons within the island, were all swallowed whole.
A few seconds later, the Skull of Onigashima vanished completely, leaving the colossal figure, nearly a kiloter tall, quietly standing there.
"Eh! What is that?!"
Queen, who had turned around at the sound of the trendous noise, was so shocked his eyes almost popped out.
Of course, since they were chanical eyes now, it wouldn't matter even if they did.
"That's way over the top, isn't it?"
Even King was so surprised that he nearly forgot to flap his wings and fell from the sky.
Douglas Bullet was truly a monster in every sense of the word!
