Chapter 31: Chapter 32: The Final Assault
The Winds of War
The battle for Wano had reached its peak. The clash of steel and the eruption of Haki sent tremors through the ground. Kaido's forces were relentless, their monstrous warriors and powerful Tobi Roppo clashing with the combined might of the Luna Pirates and the Akazaya Nine. The sound of battle filled the air—the clash of swords, the roar of flames, the boom of thunder and lightning—and through it all, Thorfinn stood resolute, leading his forces forward.
He could feel the weight of every blow he struck. Each strike of Emma and Ame no Habakiri carried the burden of his father's legacy and the future of Wano. But he was not alone. His crew, the Luna Pirates, fought with unmatched ferocity, their abilities combining to devastate Kaido's army. They were a storm—relentless and unstoppable.
But just as the battle seemed to tip in favour of the rebels, a new force emerged on the horizon. A familiar pirate ship, the Going Merry, appeared through the smoke of battle.
Thorfinn's eyes narrowed as he recognized the ship.
"They're here," he muttered.
The Arrival of the Straw Hat Brothers
The Straw Hat Pirates—and with them, Luffy, Ace, and Sabo—had finally arrived on the battlefield.
With a roar, Luffy shot himself into the air, his Gomu Gomu no Mi stretching like rubber to swing over the chaos below. Ace, flames dancing around him, landed with a force that left scorched earth beneath his feet. Sabo, his pipe at the ready, flew beside them, his Mera Mera no Mi flames lighting up the battlefield.
Thorfinn's heart pounded with pride as he saw his brothers joining the battle. Luffy, the boy with a heart as big as his dreams, had grown into a capable fighter, while Ace and Sabo had become warriors in their own right. Together, they were a force that could match anyone.
"About time you showed up!" Thorfinn shouted, grinning as he turned toward his brothers.
Luffy's smile stretched wide, his usual carefree attitude shining through. "Sorry, bro! Got a little lost on the way!"
"I don't care what you say, Luffy," Ace added with a chuckle. "Let's just burn this island to the ground!"
Sabo gave a smirk. "It's time to make history, brothers."
The Luna Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates stood side by side, ready to take on Kaido and his monstrous army.
Thorkell's Intervention
As if the battle wasn't chaotic enough, Thorkell—Thorfinn's half-brother—appeared on the battlefield. The massive man, with his half-Skypiean heritage and a warrior's bloodlust, had his own plans. His crew—Doflamingo, Apoo, Basil Hawkins, X Drake, Jewelry Bonney, Urouge, Killer, and Shiki—had been causing havoc elsewhere on the island. But Thorkell, seeking to prove his worth and gain even more power, charged into the fray with his crew in tow.
"Thorfinn!" Thorkell's voice boomed as he appeared on the scene. "Let's see if you're truly worthy of our father's legacy. I've been waiting for this."
Thorfinn's eyes locked with his half-brother's. The tension between them was palpable—rivals bound by blood, yet driven by different desires.
"Thorkell," Thorfinn said, his voice cold. "This ends today."
With that, Thorkell's crew leapt into action, fighting alongside Kaido's forces in an all-out rampage. Doflamingo, using his strings to manipulate the battlefield, locked eyes with Crocodile, who swung his Sands of the Desert in response. Apoo unleashed his chaotic sound-based attacks, while X Drake and Killer prepared for close combat.
The battlefield was now a storm of forces, each side clashing with the fury of a thousand storms.
The Fight with Kaido's Best
In the midst of the chaos, Thorfinn felt the ground shake beneath his feet as Kaido himself appeared on the battlefield, towering over the combatants. His massive dragon-like form took flight, soaring high above the island, his massive body cloaking the skies in shadow.
"We have to end this now," Thorfinn muttered, tightening his grip on his swords.
The Luna Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates were ready. Kid created weapons from the remains of fallen warriors, Enel summoned bolts of lightning, and Crocodile used his sand to manipulate the very earth beneath them. Zoro, Kaku, and the rest of the Akazaya Nine were locked in combat with Kaido's elite warriors, but it was clear that the true test would come when Kaido himself joined the fray.
Thorfinn led the charge. His Conqueror's Haki exploded, cracking the sky, as he took to the air, flying with his Lunarian wings. He slashed through Kaido's minions, cutting down the Tobi Roppo with his masterful swordplay.
"I'll finish what my father started!" Thorfinn roared, his swords flashing with deadly precision.
Ace, Luffy, and Sabo Join the Fight
With Kaido's forces overwhelming the battlefield, it was time for the Straw Hat brothers to join in. Ace, unleashing his full fury with the Mera Mera no Mi, sent waves of flames crashing through the battlefield, turning the area into an inferno. Luffy, with his Gomu Gomu no Mi, stretched his body and delivered blow after blow to Kaido's forces, sending them flying with his punches. And Sabo, using his Mera Mera no Mi powers, summoned fiery blasts to destroy everything in his path.
"Let's end this, Luffy!" Ace shouted, grinning fiercely.
Luffy laughed. "Right behind you, Ace! Let's go, guys!"
Together, the brothers launched into the battle, their combined power taking down Kaido's best warriors. But they knew the battle wouldn't be won just by brute force. They had to defeat Kaido and end his reign.
The Final Battle: Thorkell vs Thorfinn
Thorkell charged at Thorfinn with the full force of his half-Skypiean strength. The ground cracked beneath his feet as he swung his massive weapon toward his brother. Thorfinn's swords met Thorkell's with a clash that shook the very air, sparks flying as their blades collided.
"Don't think you're the only one who can carry father's name," Thorkell sneered, grinning wickedly.
"I don't need to carry his name. I'll forge my own legacy," Thorfinn replied, his voice calm but filled with determination.
The two brothers clashed in a battle of sheer willpower. Thorkell was a beast, his attacks fierce and wild. But Thorfinn's precision and control over his Haki gave him an edge. As the battle raged on, Thorkell's frustration grew. He couldn't match Thorfinn's Conqueror's Haki, nor could he keep up with the precise swordplay that made Thorfinn a force to be reckoned with.
With a final, decisive strike, Thorfinn brought Emma and Ame no Habakiri down on Thorkell's weapon, shattering it in one powerful blow. Thorkell stumbled back, his body weak from the strain.
"I'm sorry, Thorkell," Thorfinn said quietly, his swords raised. "But this is where it ends."
The Turning Point
With Thorkell defeated, the battlefield shifted. The Luna Pirates, the Straw Hat Pirates, and the Akazaya Nine pushed forward with renewed vigour. Kaido, seeing the tide turning, unleashed his most devastating attack—a massive blast of Boro Breath that could level mountains. But Thorfinn was ready.
He took to the air, his Lunarian wings spread wide, and with a roar, he summoned his Conqueror's Haki, clashing against Kaido's Boro Breath. The impact shook the very heavens above Wano.
The Battle Continues...
The war for Wano was far from over. But with Thorfinn, Luffy, Ace, Sabo, and the Luna Pirates united, they were ready to face Kaido head-on. This was the moment the world had been waiting for—the battle that would change the future of Wano and the seas
