Arceus's Pirate Journey

Chapter 1037: Chapter 1028: If I Can’t Beat the Original, Can’t I Beat the Knockoff?

As everyone knows, besides the Thundering Hakken, there might be Thunder One to Seven Hakke in the world. This kind of description is usually used to demonstrate the disparity between the opponent’s strength and Kaidou’s.

In Yamato’s view, although this ”Kaidou’s” Thundering Hakken was learned quite decently, it is far from the real Kaidou’s Thundering Hakken, let alone the upgraded series like Dragon Dance Hakken, Sword Dance Hakken, Mountain Collapse Hakken, etc.

The appearances of the two were almost identical, Yamato did not notice any flaws.

However, when the two sides collided, she naturally detected something unusual. Of her twenty-six years of life, at least twenty-three had been spent getting beaten, and in recent years, Kaidou no longer holds back and would never deliver such a feeble Thundering Hakken.

This ”Kaidou” shared her sentiment. Although he didn’t understand how his idiot son got the handcuffs off, even without them, she couldn’t possibly unleash such a powerful Thundering Hakken.

Just two days ago, ”Kaidou” had thrashed ”Yamato,” and in just under two days, she could not have possibly broken through to this extent.

”Who are you? My stupid son doesn’t have this kind of strength.”

”I should be asking who you all are?! Where have Father and Godfather gone? Also, are your ears and eyes just decorations?? Or is there a problem with the gender definitions here?”

”Who am I? Well, asking me who I am on my own turf, you’re quite bold, aren’t you? Of course, I’m Kaidou.”

Large patches of blue dragon scales appeared on the surface of ”Kaidou’s” body, and the tail that grew from the back swung away a few pirates who couldn’t dodge in time. In ”Kaidou’s” view, this was someone impersonating ”Yamato.”

Although he didn’t know the purpose, her strength was quite formidable. Since that’s the case, then a fight it is.

”You’re Kaidou, right? Then I won’t hold back.”

Watching ”Kaidou” enter the Dragon Form, Yamato’s processor almost burned out. There is always only one Devil Fruit at the same time, which remains a consensus on The Sea. Apart from Arceus’ ability, Yamato had never seen someone with the same ability.

That he could even get his hands on an Azure Dragon Fruit indicated that this matter was more complicated than she thought.

But that didn’t affect her willingness to fight.

”I’ve been wanting to knock you down... for a long time now!”

Yamato’s ultimate ideal—overthrow Kaidou to achieve true independence.

The real Kaidou she couldn’t defeat just now, but from the engagement earlier, she confirmed one thing: this was a low-quality version.

If the authentic one can’t be beaten, can’t she still have fun with a pirated version?

As for where exactly this was, talking about it after the fight wouldn’t be an issue.

With this in mind, Yamato also transformed into Human-Beast Form. Though this ”Kaidou” was no match for Kaidou, using human form to KO a Human-Beast Form was still a bit too much.

”The same ability? No, this isn’t Okuchi no Makami, so she’s definitely not ’Yamato.’

”Kaidou’s” transformation was of no difference, but Yamato’s transformation was entirely different, with Kyurem’s version of Okuchi no Makami having much more dragon elements, making it much sharper than the original Okuchi no Makami.

”Okay then, let me see what made you bold enough to say something like Thunder Seven Hakke, Thundering Hakken!”

”I’ve been wanting to practice on you, this is something good prepared for my real father! Icefall Hakken!”

The power of extreme cold spread from Yamato’s body, and after the return of the Icicle Plate, Yamato became a beneficiary again. The previous Ice Power within her was obtained by converting Okuchi no Makami’s ice attribute through the Draco Plate.

Though this power was gradually perfected with the help of the newborn Kyurem’s power, it was still lacking somewhat. After the return of the Icicle Plate, Yamato’s Ice Power reached its peak in the true sense.

Frost spread over Aken, and the Extreme Cold Power was hidden beneath a shell of Haki, exploding upon contact with ”Kaidou.”

The cold surge almost engulfed the entire room, and ”Kaidou,” being the direct attack target, was frozen into a giant ice sculpture.

”Big Brother Kaidou?!”

”Queen’s” eyes were almost popping out of his goggles. He couldn’t believe that Kaidou was ”knocked out” with one strike by the enemy.

But this was merely an appearance.

Crack, crack...
