Kaido’s face was as dark as the deep sea.

Unlike Kuma’s Buccaneer race, who revered the Sun God Nika, Kaido had always been chasing the legend of the man who could change the world—Joy Boy, not Nika.

But ’Warrior of Liberation’, "Sun God"—these were titles once used to describe Joy Boy.

Was Sky Sovereign Rowen implying that Straw Hat was the Joy Boy of this era?

WHAT A JOKE!

A savage, crimson-black light flared in Kaido’s eyes. The manifestation of his Haoshoku Coating, the crackling lightning that wreathed his body, grew even more violent and tyrannical.

He would only acknowledge the one who could defeat him as Joy Boy!

This was why he had been so eager to have a one-on-one duel with Sky Sovereign Rowen—to prove that this brat was nothing more than a pretender.

In his eyes, there had only ever been one true challenger: Sky Sovereign Rowen.

Straw Hat had never even been a consideration.

And now, this brat was suddenly telling him that Straw Hat was the Joy Boy of this era??

This snot-nosed little whelp!

"Sun God?" Big Mom’s eyes were now also grim, a crimson-black light roaring within them.

The Haōshoku Coating lightning around her began to churn.

Big Mom, unlike Kaido, wasn’t chasing some Joy Boy. Her pursuit was to gather all the races of the world to live in her Totto Land.

And the race she desired most was the Giants of Elbaf. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

And the "Sun God" was a central figure in the faith of the Elbaf giants.

(In Elbaf, there was an important festival called the Winter Solstice Festival. Before the official ceremony, the Giants would fast for 12 days to welcome the arrival of the Sun God.)

And the title "Sun God" held a special meaning for Big Mom.

Because this title and the Winter Solstice Festival—she had first heard of them in her childhood, from the person most special to her: Mother Carmel.

For Big Mom, who was exiled from her homeland, adopted by Mother Carmel, and grew up in Elbaf, the title "Sun God" meant so much.

To call Straw Hat a "Warrior of Liberation," or Kaido’s long-awaited "Joy Boy"—that was all meaningless to her...

But to say Straw Hat was the Sun God??

THAT WAS AN UNFORGIVABLE INSULT!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The combined, unrestrained rage of Kaido and Big Mom manifested as a tidal wave of pure Conqueror’s Haki.

The very island began to shake violently under the pressure.

The clouds in the sky above were sent into a frantic, reverse spiral, and the lightning within them began to boil.

"TAKE THIS, YOU BRAT!"

Kaido and Big Mom, their faces contorted in extreme villainous expressions, suddenly pulled back their Kanabo and the Homie sword Napoleon.

The Haōshoku Coating energy of the two began to gather, to fuse—forming a horrifying crimson-black cloud of energy, a sphere containing both their physical energy and their Haōshoku Coating power.

<><><><><><><><>

"The Elbaf Giants’ fusion technique... HAKAI??"

Rowen murmured, looking at the familiar scene, his eyes flashing with an astonishing crimson-black light.

This was the combination attack Kaido and Big Mom unleashed during the Onigashima war in the original story—Hakai.

It was the same terrifying technique that, with just a moment’s contact, had shattered all the muscles and bones in Zoro’s body—who only survived thanks to Law’s Op-Op Fruit ability and his own special constitution.

And...

"The power... is even more astonishing this time." Rowen smiled.

In the original story, when facing the Supernovas, Kaido and Big Mom had not been using their full power.

They were simply showing these Supernovas how vast the sea truly was. And for two Emperors to go all-out against opponents who hadn’t even reached the Admiral level would have been a disgrace.

Otherwise, no matter how special Zoro’s constitution was, he couldn’t have blocked it even for an instant.

But now, in their extreme rage, Kaido and Big Mom were pouring every last drop of their physical energy and Haōshoku Coating into this attack.

They were creating the strongest combination technique in history: HAKAI!

"Hey, hey... What a terrifying pressure,"

Sanji, who had not yet mastered Haōshoku Coating and lacked Zoro’s Asura Aura to channel a portion of Conqueror’s Haki’s power, felt the immense force wash over him.

Though with his Modified Exoskeleton, Sanji’s combat strength was at the absolute top among Yonko Commanders—especially his defense, which, due to the exoskeleton, was even stronger than an ordinary Admiral’s.

He was ultimately not an Admiral-level combatant.

Participating in an Admiral-level battle, he would be on the defensive, relying on his exoskeleton’s defense to stall.

It was better to place Sanji on the battlefield of the commanders.

At this moment, Sanji looked at that utterly horrifying shockwave, cold sweat also appearing on his forehead.

The fusion of two Emperors’ power... the pressure was too immense.
