Chapter 9 Showdown (Part 1)
Outside Ghost Island, a frozen and dry land.
Yamato and Smoothie are still in constant confrontation. Haki and his abilities continue to pour in, causing the surrounding landscape to change all the time.
The clash of blows shook the rocks on the ground instantly, and the two of them immediately jumped back.
The human-animal form Yamato was breathing heavily now, and the fur around his body also had a few dry dead skin spots.
Smoothie's injuries were not serious. He had withstood many blows from the opponent. His whole body was covered with scars and there were many fractures and bleeding in his body, but he still stood firm.
At this time, members of the Charlotte family led by Dafu finally succeeded in rescuing the eldest son Perospero, who was seriously injured and unconscious. When they saw Smoothie's tragic situation, everyone was shocked and angry, and they even wanted to attack Yamato together.
Smoothie immediately shouted to stop them and said: "Stop it!"
"Smoothie, but you..." Dafu, who was willing to bear the humiliation before, could not bear it now when he saw how badly his sister was injured.
Smoothie stared at him and said: "The goal has been achieved, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time! Retreat immediately!"
Dafu and others also knew their priorities and could only leave angrily.
Smoothie put away the giant sword, looked at Yamato and said, "That's it for today!"
Yamato also picked up the iron rod, his face softened a lot, and said: "It turns out that you are just trying to save people. If you had known, we wouldn't have to use it..."
Smoothie interrupted and said: "No, this battle is very meaningful! I am honored to fight with a master like you, Wanokuni, it is not in vain!"
Yamato looked at the other party's serious and satisfied expression and nodded with a smile.
"Can you tell me your name? Your real name!" Smoothie's eyes were bright.
"Yamato."
Smoothie nodded and said seriously: "My name is Smoothie! Yamato, next time we meet, I will definitely win you!"
Yamato was also very excited and smiled encouragingly: "Oh, come on! I also look forward to fighting a stronger you!"

Outside the ghost island, the earth is broken.
Two blood-stained bodies fell in the ruins, almost the same as corpses, as if they were about to die at any time.
"Do you dare to challenge me at this level? That guy Linlin is getting more and more useless as he gets older, and he would lose to someone like you!"
Kaido exhaled two blasts of air, and said with a tense face: "I don't need to waste any time with you, I can deal with you anytime I want!"
Kaido walked up to Kid unhurriedly, raised his four-pawed paws and stepped on him directly, saying coldly: "A guy like you, like a bug, only deserves to be stepped on by me!"
Although his body collapsed severely and his consciousness was severely blurred, the pride in his heart still made Kid unwilling to show weakness and struggled with his last bit of strength.
"What's wrong, didn't you say you wanted to take my head? Where's the energy you had before? I'll give you three seconds to stand up! Three! Two! One!"
Before Kid could turn over, he was crushed into the ground by a sudden kick. Blood overflowed and cracks were everywhere.
Not far away, Luo was holding a saber, trying his best to cheer up. His body was covered with bruises and was shaking uncontrollably, and he couldn't use any force at all.
At this time, the mace was still stretched out in front of him.
Kaido looked down at him, with a cold face, and said calmly: "I will give you three seconds, as long as you can stand up, I will let you go!"
"Three! Two! One! Time's up!"
This time, the mace was not wrapped with lightning, but it still swung out an afterimage, knocking the opponent away like a softball. Blood and water splashed out, and the terrifying force of the impact instantly shook away the surrounding gravel.
Luo almost hit the distant peaks at a speed that blurred his vision. However, the rocky peaks were not collapsed as expected. Instead, they sunk in like a soft bed, catching him steadily, and the ground where he fell actually did not collapse. It became extremely elastic and held him up.
Looking at this strange phenomenon, Kaido couldn't help but frown deeply. Suddenly a red light flashed in his eyes, and he saw the scene of himself being injured the next moment, and he couldn't help but swung the bat angrily.
The mace that dragged up the long lightning and the extremely fast lightning ejection long fist directly impacted through the air. Suddenly a large amount of lightning raged and shot straight into the sky.
The thick volcanic ash above Wanokuni was directly impacted by this energy, and a gap was opened. The dawn light suddenly poured down, illuminating the battlefield and the two people facing each other from a distance.
Kaido picked up the mace, looked at the opponent solemnly, and said, "You are too slow! These two idiots almost died waiting for you!"
It was a white figure with flame-shaped hair, and steam streamers wrapped around his shoulders like Kaido's flame clouds. After retracting his long fists, he showed a very representative smile.
"As long as you don't fall down, I will stay with you until the end!"

Inside Ghost Island.
The battle between the samurai and pirate alliances and the soldiers of the Beasts Pirates is also in full swing.
Although almost all the senior cadres of the Beast Regiment were defeated, Kaido still did not fall, and his soldiers would not stop fighting. The Beast Regiment, which far outnumbered the resistance, also had many real fighters who had taken artificial Devil Fruit. , they are all surprisingly tenacious and fierce.
For a time, the equally exhausted rebels were unable to cope.
But their advantage is that they still have many high-level combat capabilities.
The leader is the Straw Hat Crew. Except for Zoro, who was seriously injured and comatose due to the backlash of taking special medicine, the two top players Sanji and Jinbei are still able to fight and contain a large number of enemies. The same goes for Franky, Robin, Brook, Usopp and Nami. With his unique skills, he helped Chopper cover the wounded.
On the Kid Pirates side, Kira is also leading the crew to fight with all their strength, and the same is true for the Heart Pirates on the other side. Bepo and others trust their captain unconditionally and fight without stopping.
The samurai headed by Hyogoro risked their lives and fought bloody battles for their country. They also placed all their hopes on those young pirates.
Chopper was still worried about the situation on the other side at this moment, because no one knew the current situation of his captain better than him. He couldn't help but said: "Luffy..."
Brook looked over and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Mr. Captain?"
Usopp rubbed his nose and smiled: "That bastard will be fine!"
Nami waved the weather stick and said with a relaxed expression: "Chopper, don't be distracted! Just do your part, and leave the other side to him without worries!"
Robin also chuckled: "Aren't we already accustomed to trusting each other? What's more, he is the captain of a ship!"
Franky kept firing the guns and weapons on his body, shouting loudly: "Ouch! That guy's condition is just like me, SUPER!"
Jinbei said angrily: "I participated in this war with the mentality of unconditionally trusting that man!"
Sanji blew out a smoke ring, looked at Chopper and smiled: "Luffy will definitely win! As long as we keep holding on to this belief, we will be right!"
