"Worororo!"
"How completely disappointing. I'll go find Orochi for another drink."
As Kaido transformed into a dragon and left, the show came to an end, and the officers lost their interest in drinking, leaving one after another.
Daichi was about to slip away, but he was stopped by an angry girl.
Ulti grabbed Daichi's collar and yelled at him furiously.
"Are you an idiot?!"
"Do you know how dangerous that was? If those Devil Fruits were real, you'd be dead by now!"
"Idiot, fool, stupid!"
"…"
Daichi's forehead was covered in black lines.
Please, being tsundere isn't popular anymore.
Ulti yelled for a while, but she still wasn't satisfied.
"Pay-Pay, hit him for me!"
"Huh? Why don't you do it yourself?!"
Page One's face was filled with reluctance.
Although he did want to punch Daichi, it was by his own choice, not by his sister's command.
Ulti, who was already angry, immediately shifted her anger to her brother, instantly grabbing his neck with both hands.
"You brat, I'm your sister!"
"Let go, let go!"
Page One struggled desperately.
However, sadly, he wasn't as strong as his sister.
Just then, Daichi's large hand grabbed Ulti's collar from behind, lifting her up like a little chick.
"Hmm?"
Both siblings turned their heads at the same time.
What's going on?
Page One was stunned for a moment, then quickly gave a meaningful look.
Are you crazy, kid? Why aren't you taking advantage of me holding my sister back to make a quick escape?
Although he was very angry at Daichi for selling him out, which made his life terrible recently, when facing his sister, he was more willing to stand on the same side as Daichi.
After all, when facing his sister's bothering, Daichi would also find ways to help him escape, and over time, a silent understanding had formed.
Daichi smiled and put Ulti down, then clenched his fists, making a battle invitation.
"Page One, let's go to the back mountain."
"Huh?!"
Page One was even more confused.
The young man looked at his sister, then at Daichi, then at his sister again, and then at Daichi again.
What!
Are you insane?!
My sister is bothering you, what do you mean by wanting to fight me?!
Daichi saw through the young man's thoughts and calmly said,
"I can't bear to hit your sister."
"…"
What complete nonsense!
Others might not know your true nature, but how could I not know you?
Page One's head was throbbing with anger, wanting to expose Daichi's past, but seeing his sister next to him, who seemed to be overjoyed, he forcibly swallowed his words.
Alright, alright, you think he's easy to bully, huh?!
Today, I'll let you know the true power of an Ancient Zoan!
"Let's go!"
A moment later, the three arrived at the back mountain.
"Pay-Pay ♡ Go! Pay-Pay ♡ Go!"
"Daichi ♡ Go! Daichi ♡ Go!"
Ulti bounced happily, cheering for her brother one moment, then for Daichi the next, completely unsure which side she was on.
Page One snorted and took off his shirt.
He was getting serious.
"Daichi, I don't know where you get your confidence from, but today I won't hold back. I'll use all my strength!"
"Alright!"
Daichi smiled and threw his greatsword, sticking it into a distant rock, then leaned forward, hooking both hands at the same time.
A very insulting provocative gesture.
The young man was stunned for a moment, then his eyes immediately turned red.
Aside from his sister, he had never suffered such insult!
"Bastard!"
Page One angrily pushed off with his legs, quickly charging toward Daichi, his Haki-covered fist smashing toward Daichi's face!
"Clang!"
The fist was blocked by a single hand!
"Is this your full power?"
Daichi sneered, grabbing Page One's fist and suddenly pulling him backward, slamming Page One's body heavily onto the ground behind him.
"Boom!"
The young man landed on his back, breaking the hard ground, and with a puff of his cheeks, he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
"Pay-Pay!!!"
Ulti cried out in distress.
If someone else hurt her brother, she would have long since exploded, but Daichi was also her person, and the two were having a challenge, not a true fight to the death.
"Pay-Pay, go for it!"
The girl cupped her mouth and shouted.
But no one paid attention to her.
Page One pushed himself up with his hands, using his waist to spring backward, doing several backflips to quickly create distance.
"I was careless!"
The young man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze becoming much more serious.
"This guy's strength has gotten stronger again!"
Although there was an element of carelessness, through the previous struggle, he could clearly feel that Daichi's strength was greater than before.
How long had it been?!
Damn it, who's the Zoan type here?!
He was an Ancient Zoan, so why was his physical growth not as fast as Daichi's? Was there anything more crazy than this?!
Trouble.
In his human form, he couldn't win!
"Roar!!!"
The young man roared, directly transforming into a giant Spinosaurus, and charged again, his massive mouth snapping at Daichi.
"Bring it on!"
Daichi's eyes glowed with excitement, and he spread his arms.
Before, when he fought Page One, Page One had never used his transformation. This time, he would let him experience the power of an Ancient Zoan.
The moment the Spinosaurus was about to bite him, Daichi's hands shot out, one above and one below, gripping the opponent's upper and lower jaws!
"So heavy!"
Daichi's face was twisted, veins showing all over his body, his thick arms desperately holding open the opponent's mouth!
However, in the face of the Ancient Zoan's terrifying bite force and strength, the distance between his arms was constantly shrinking, and his body couldn't stop being pushed backward!
"Bang!"
His back hit against the rock!
The next moment, the Spinosaurus's huge mouth snapped shut.
"Boom!"
The rock shattered!
The Spinosaurus lifted his head, his mouth full of broken rock pieces. The hard rock was like soft tofu in the face of his biting force.
His massive pupils moved, searching for Daichi's location.
The moment he bit down, he could feel that Daichi had avoided the bite and was now hiding within the dust.
"Whoosh!"
The dust suddenly swirled.
Then Daichi leaped out, appearing to the side of his head.
"I've already fallen for the same attack once!"
Page One sneered, his body quickly twisting sideways, avoiding the attack while at the same time swinging his massive tail at Daichi!
Fangs and tail!
These were his two strongest weapons after transforming into his dinosaur form!
"Bang!"
A sonic boom echoed through the air!
Daichi only saw a black blur, then he was uncontrollably sent flying backward, his body rolling across the ground, continuously smashing through a dozen huge rocks before finally stopping.
Dust spread for nearly a hundred meters!
He stayed still for half a minute.
Daichi pushed away the massive rock pressing on him, raised a hand to wipe the blood from his mouth, and his battle-filled gaze became even more excited.
As expected of an Ancient Zoan!
His strength completely overwhelmed him, and his speed was slightly clumsy, but his massive size combined with his flexible long tail meant his burst attacks were as fast as lightning.
"Daichi!!!"
Ulti, who was watching, couldn't help but cry out again.
If her brother was hurt, she would feel distressed.
If Daichi was hurt, she would also feel sad.
"Wuwuwu!"
Ulti knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
"Pay-Pay and Daichi are risking their lives to fight for me. If either of you dies, what will I do?"
"No one is doing this for you!!!"
Daichi and Page One at the same time turned their heads and roared.
Daichi pulled back his gaze, his fighting spirit exploding.
This battle was to test his newly gained power. Staying with the Beast Pirates, he would definitely encounter many high-level situations, and he couldn't always rely on someone else to fight for him.
"Although this power isn't complete yet, it should be enough. Let me see just how strong you are, Groudon!"
