One Piece: Invincible Starting From The Fruit Of Words-Chapter 177 Kaido, Die! Revenge Bloody Battle

Kaido glared at the mammoth-shaped Inuarashi with fury.

"That's right. We're here for revenge today."

"Do you remember us, Kaido?"

After more than ten years of waiting, the day of revenge had finally arrived.

Kaido looked at Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, his eyes narrowing as he recalled something.

"Heh heh heh... so it's you two pests."

Kaido sneered, "I remember now. You were Oden's pathetic subordinates—the cowards who fled to save their own skins!"

"We won't run away again. Never again!"

"Even if we die here today, we'll never run away!"

Before Kaido could respond, Inuarashi and Nekomamushi charged again.

The mammoth's massive trunk rose into the air, its two enormous, jet-black tusks aiming straight for Kaido's chest.

Meanwhile, the saber-toothed tiger bared its pitch-black fangs and lunged to bite Kaido's head.

Boom!

Kaido remained motionless, taking both attacks head-on.

Rumble!

As the dust settled, Kaido's indifferent voice echoed, "Is this all you've got?"

The dust cleared, revealing Kaido standing firm without taking a single step back.

Both Inuarashi's and Nekomamushi's attacks had landed, yet neither had managed to pierce Kaido's skin.

The defense of the "strongest creature in the world" was no joke. There were very few who could break through Kaido's armor-like body.

"It's not over yet!"

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi roared together as they shifted from their beast forms into their hybrid forms.

Each now wielded two swords, and Kaido's pupils narrowed as he recognized their stances.

"This is...!"

For a brief moment, Kaido's vision blurred. In his mind, he saw Kozuki Oden, the man who had once scarred him for life.

The attack came swiftly, the glint of the blades flashing as they struck.

"Taoyuan Ten Fists!"

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi attacked in unison, slashing at the cross-shaped scar that Oden had left on Kaido's abdomen years ago.

The blades struck true.

Slash!

Kaido's eyes widened as he felt the sharp pain.

"How... how can their blades hurt me?"

Kaido looked down and saw that all four swords were coated in Advanced Armament Haki.

But this wasn't just ordinary Armament Haki—it was internal destruction, a technique that only a few masters could wield skillfully.

This technique had been taught to them by Lucifer.

Not just Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, but also Enel, Weibull, Rain Shiryu, and all the core members of the Nether Pirates had learned the advanced cultivation methods for Armament Haki from Lucifer.

After mastering this technique, their strength had grown exponentially.

Now, Inuarashi and Nekomamushi had the power of ancient Zoan fruits, paired with internal destruction Haki and the swordsmanship taught by Kozuki Oden. Their combined power had increased dramatically.

With a single strike, they had finally managed to break Kaido's seemingly impenetrable defense.

"Go to hell, Kaido!"

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi roared as they unleashed their full strength. With a powerful motion, they swiped their swords, releasing a massive cross-shaped slash of energy.

Kaido was sent flying by the blow, crashing into a stone pillar the size of a small mountain, which crumbled to dust upon impact.

"So strong! Oden's retainers are truly powerful!"

Yamato's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Not only did she idolize Kozuki Oden, but she also revered his retainers. This was a fight she had never even dared to dream of witnessing.

"Don't get too excited. This is far from enough to defeat Kaido," Katakuri said calmly, his arms crossed.

He understood the terrifying power of the Four Emperors better than anyone. Defeating Kaido would take far more than this.

"You're right. Kaido isn't that easy to defeat!"

Lucifer sat on a rock, resting his chin on his right hand, quietly watching the battle unfold before him.

He was the only one who could truly defeat Kaido. The reason why Inuarashi and Nekomamushi had taken action was to fulfill their long-standing desire for revenge. It was also to add a bit of pre-battle entertainment for Lucifer before his final showdown with Kaido.

BOOM!

A massive stone was flung aside as Kaido rose from the rubble, grinning through gritted teeth.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth—a rare sight—but everyone present knew that such a minor injury was nothing more than a scratch to Kaido.

"Well done," Kaido sneered. "You two worthless mutts have made some progress. But that's all it is."

Kaido cracked his neck, the sharp sound echoing ominously.

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, however, were focused on his abdomen. Their earlier strike, which had left a faint cross-shaped cut on his scarred stomach, had barely scratched the surface.

Despite breaking through Kaido's infamous defense, the wound was shallow, nowhere near deep enough to harm his internal organs or even the deeper layers of muscle. Worse, his incredible self-healing ability was already closing the wound.

"Be careful!" Inuarashi roared suddenly.

Before the warning could register, Nekomamushi instinctively ducked.

A devastating gust of wind roared past, its sheer force leaving a stinging sensation on Nekomamushi's skin.

Kaido had moved behind him in an instant—so fast they hadn't even noticed.

"We can't let our guard down for even a second!" Inuarashi growled, his mammoth-like eyes filled with urgency. "Our opponent is Kaido!"

SLASH!

Before he could finish speaking, a gash appeared on Nekomamushi's forehead, blood spurting out.

Kaido's earlier swing had missed its target, but the sheer shockwave created by the mace had been enough to tear through the sabretooth's tough skin.

Such was the terror of the Four Emperors, Kaido.

WHOOSH!

Kaido vanished again.

Inuarashi's expression turned grave. He crossed both swords instinctively to block.

CLANG!

The force of Kaido's strike sent him flying like a rag doll, blood spraying from his mouth. He hurtled hundreds of meters before crashing into the ground.

Nekomamushi barely had time to react. In less than a fraction of a second, Kaido's next strike sent him flying too.

From Lucifer's perspective, Kaido had merely flickered. In the blink of an eye, Inuarashi and Nekomamushi had already been overwhelmed.

BANG! BANG!

The two crashed to the ground near Lucifer's feet, their battered bodies trembling as they struggled to grip their swords.

Blood trickled from their mouths, their injuries severe, with internal organs clearly damaged.

"Hey, are you two alright?" Yamato rushed over, her voice filled with concern.

"It's fine... Don't worry," Inuarashi wheezed, forcing himself to his feet. "We won't die that easily."

"Not yet," Nekomamushi added, his fighting spirit undeterred despite the pain.

Kaido rested his massive kanabo on his shoulder and glared at Lucifer.

"Hey, Lucifer!" he bellowed. "Are you going to step in, or what? I don't have time to waste on these weaklings!"

Lucifer smirked, his devilish grin mocking Kaido. "Why should I bother? Look, there are still a few eager subordinates behind me itching to fight you."

He paused, his smirk widening. "And let's not forget—your own son seems to want a piece of you too."

"Well said!" Yamato declared, stepping forward with her mace in hand. "Old man, let's settle this once and for all!"

Kaido's expression darkened.

His anger wasn't just directed at Lucifer, who dared to treat him like an afterthought. What enraged him even more was Yamato.

His so-called son—not only disobedient but now fighting alongside outsiders to take him down.

The lack of filial piety made him furious enough to want to kill Yamato himself.

WHOOSH!

In a flash, Yamato closed the distance between them, her mace aimed directly at Kaido's head.

"Thunder Bagua!" she roared, swinging the weapon down with all her might.

Kaido's fury boiled over.

"That's MY technique!" he roared back. "How dare you use it against your own father! Impressive, Yamato—truly amazing!"
