Ian finally understood what Ace meant by Kaido’s iron body.

Even Kizaru’s lasers, which could easily pierce through human bodies, exploded upon contact with Kaido’s skin, leaving only a charred mark without actually injuring him.

The Ame-no-Murakumo Sword and the Ice Saber—Kizaru and Aokiji took turns attacking with Haki-infused blades, but could only leave shallow scratches on Kaido.

Meanwhile, Kaido laughed maniacally, continuously attacking the two with his spiked club or fists. He seemed quite pleased to have the two Marine Admirals as his opponents.

With both of Akainu’s arms severely injured, he could only watch helplessly, unable to join the battle.

Seeing the situation, Garp stepped in, leaping up to punch Kaido in the face. However, his blow only made Kaido’s face dent momentarily and turn his head. Kaido wiped his face and immediately recovered.

“Hahahaha! You’re here too, Garp!” Kaido laughed, throwing a punch at Garp. Garp gritted his teeth and clashed with him head-on. When their fists collided, a powerful shockwave erupted, dispersing the surrounding smoke and dust.

However, the clash resulted in Garp being sent flying, crashing into a nearby ice floe like a cannonball!

“Grandpa!!” Ace and Luffy shouted in alarm when they saw Garp being knocked away. They immediately ran out from the crowd, rushing towards the spot where Garp had landed. Ian couldn’t even hold them back.

The two brothers reached Garp, with Luffy stretching out his arm to pull him out of the deep crater. Garp coughed and struggled to stand. Although he was not seriously injured, his right hand, which had clashed with Kaido’s, was trembling uncontrollably.

“Damn it, this guy’s strength seems even greater than before…” Garp muttered, looking at his shaking right hand.

Seeing Iron Fist Garp unable to win in a direct punch-off with Kaido terrified many of the Marine soldiers.

By now, most of the ordinary pirates and Marine soldiers had retreated far away, not daring to come close. Whitebeard and Sengoku stood nearby, and after seeing Garp’s condition, Whitebeard turned to Sengoku and said, “This lunatic is here for another suicide attempt. How about we join forces to drive him away?”

“…” Sengoku glanced at Whitebeard, then at Kaido, who was fiercely battling Kizaru and Aokiji. Recalling the recent news from the World Government, he couldn’t help but sigh.

He understood that with the Blackbeard Pirates attacking Mariejois and Kaido’s sudden appearance, this war had completely deviated from his expectations. Continuing to fight the Whitebeard Pirates was now meaningless.

Though he was reluctant to admit it, Sengoku knew the Marines had already lost. They had failed to kill Whitebeard even when he was severely injured, and now that the Whitebeard had recovered, there was no one who could kill him. The Marines’ strategic objective had been utterly defeated…

Whitebeard probably realized this as well, which is why he suggested teaming up against Kaido, providing the Marines with a dignified way to end the conflict…

The Marines couldn’t defeat the Whitebeard Pirates, and likewise, the Whitebeard Pirates couldn’t defeat the Marines. Both sides had suffered significant casualties, and it was time for them to silently lick their wounds after this.

With this in mind, Sengoku finally nodded…

Then, Whitebeard and Sengoku moved in unison. Sengoku thrust his palm towards Kaido, releasing a powerful shockwave from his palm that slammed into Kaido’s massive body.

Whitebeard, on the other hand, swung his arm and threw a powerful punch towards Kaido from a distance!

A cracking sound echoed as the atmosphere fractured at the point of impact, creating spiderweb-like fissures in mid-air. A strong shockwave then struck Kaido!

The combined attack from Whitebeard and Sengoku finally had an effect! Kaido’s body bent under the impact of Sengoku’s shockwave, and then Whitebeard’s shockwave followed, penetrating his steel-like defenses and directly affecting his internal organs.

“Ugh!” Kaido spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward!

With a thunderous crash, his enormous and heavy body hit the ground, causing the earth to shake.

Seeing Kaido fall, both the pirates and the Marines couldn’t help but cheer!

However, Whitebeard and Sengoku, who had launched the attack, remained solemn. They weren’t the least bit happy about Kaido being injured and knocked down. Both had fought Kaido multiple times and knew that such an attack could injure him but couldn’t finish him…

Sure enough, before the cheers from the pirates and Marines had subsided, Kaido’s body moved, and he got up as if nothing had happened.

After getting back on his feet, the raging aura around Kaido grew even stronger. He spread his arms wide and laughed maniacally, shouting, “Well done! Well done! Whitebeard, Sengoku! Let’s have a grand fight! Come kill me!”

Ian could tell that in just that brief moment, Kaido’s internal injuries had already begun to heal!

“Is… is this the effect of an awakened Zoan-type fruit?” Ian said in disbelief. “But this regeneration is just too monstrous!”

“It’s rumored that Kaido is immortal… Now I’ve finally seen it!” Fujitora said with a look of awe.

“Captain, should we join in?” Enel, licking his lips and looking at Kaido, couldn’t hide his excitement. It was clear that Kaido had ignited his fighting spirit.

Ian thought for a moment and, seeing that Marco and the others also seemed eager to join the fray, nodded and said, “Alright, let’s assist the Old Man and Sengoku!”

Fujitora understood Ian’s intent. He thrust his cane sword into the ground, and a powerful surge of Observation Haki shot into the sky.

A massive meteor appeared in the sky, glowing with an eerie light, and trailing a long fiery tail as it hurtled towards Kaido’s position.

At that moment, only Aokiji and Kizaru were within a few miles of Kaido’s position. Therefore, Fujitora had no fear of collateral damage and aimed the meteor directly at Kaido.

The three combatants naturally noticed the meteor’s appearance. Aokiji and Kizaru quickly leaped aside, while Kaido laughed heartily and roared, “Interesting!” He then threw a punch directly at the meteor!

Mothafcker! Watching this, Ian cursed internally. This guy is a lunatic! Punching a meteor? Only he would come up with such an idea!

Boom! Kaido’s fist collided with the meteor. At the point of contact, the meteor summoned by Fujitora immediately cracked extensively, shattering under the force of his punch. However, the meteor fragments continued their downward trajectory, engulfing Kaido’s entire body!

The ground trembled violently, as if a massive bomb had exploded. The powerful gusts of wind surged outward, sending debris flying in all directions. A huge crater formed at the impact site, with Kaido buried at the bottom.

“Did it work?” Everyone watched the impact site intently.

However, just then, there was a rumbling sound, and a tall figure stood up from the rubble. Kaido, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, wore his usual ferocious grin. His shoulder had a large dent, as if his bones were shattered, but as he emerged, the dent gradually began to rise and heal.

With Fujitora’s strength, he could indeed break through Kaido’s iron body and injure him, but such power was still not enough to completely take him down!

The reason the world recognized Kaido as the strongest in one-on-one combat was precisely because of this. Even if one had the power to harm Kaido, if they couldn’t stop his regenerative ability, no one could defeat him!

Ian recalled seeing those Zoan-type awakened jailer beasts in Impel Down with their astonishing regenerative abilities. Comparing them, Ian felt that Kaido’s regenerative ability far exceeded the scope of a typical Zoan awakening.

Since physical attacks were ineffective against Kaido, it was time to try energy attacks!

Ian placed a hand on Enel, beginning to absorb his electrical power.

“You…!!” Enel felt the electricity continuously being drained from his body by Ian, bewildered. Just as he was about to say something, Ian shot him a glare, and Enel immediately fell silent.

As Ian absorbed more and more electrical power, his Nen rapidly surged. With his other hand, he drew out Senbonzakura’s blade and performed his Bankai. The illusion of the Evil Eye Master appeared on his forehead once again as Ian began to summon thunderclouds above Kaido’s head.

This final bolt of lightning was even more powerful than the one Ian had summoned on Sabaody Archipelago. As he channeled his Nen, he drew more power from Enel, almost draining Enel’s electricity completely.

The crackling, discharging thunderclouds drew the attention of many. Aokiji and Kizaru quickly realized what was happening and retreated further, sensing the imminent danger.

When Enel nearly collapsed on the ground, could no longer contain the energy within. With a sudden, forceful gesture, he thrust his hand downward.

“The Final Thunderbolt!!!”

Due to the immense Nen, the lightning seemed to change its nature. A black bolt of lightning appeared abruptly in the sky, its darkness absorbing the surrounding light as it struck directly down towards Kaido.

Boom! The thunderbolt tore through the atmosphere with a deafening roar. Many weaker pirates and marine soldiers fell to the ground in agony, clutching their ears as if their eardrums had burst.

Since he stood up, Kaido had been under the immense gravity exerted by Fujitora. Thus, he had no chance to dodge this final thunderbolt and was struck directly…
