[Chat Group For The Death] Chapter 66 - 70

Chapter 66: Ryuma, You Are So Cruel!

Kin'emon glared at Shutenmaru, his voice filled with anger.

"Is this your excuse for giving up the fight? We brought the young master here—he is the hope for Wano Country!"

He pointed at Momonosuke, speaking with absolute conviction.

Shutenmaru, however, sneered in disdain.

"Are you kidding me? Even a man like Kozuki Oden was defeated—what use is this brat, who can only cower behind women and suckle like a baby? You actually consider this spineless coward to be Wano’s hope? No wonder you’re doomed to fail!"

Kin'emon’s face turned red with rage. "How can you insult the young master like that?!"

Shutenmaru let out a cold laugh.

"Young master? Don’t make me laugh! I followed Kozuki Oden because I admired him—not because I swore loyalty to the Kozuki Clan. When did I ever say I was his retainer?"

His mocking gaze turned to Momonosuke.

"Oden humiliated himself, dancing naked in front of Orochi’s palace every day, drowning in debauchery and booze. He had his reasons for doing it. But you? You’re just weak and pathetic."

"Oden spoiled you, and Toki coddled you. The result? A spineless, perverted coward who is an absolute disgrace to the Kozuki name!"

"Let me give you some advice—give up on this country! If Orochi or Kaido capture you, you won’t just be humiliated—you’ll die."

Momonosuke trembled in fear, hiding behind Kin’emon, his face as pale as a sheet.

Kin’emon and the others were furious.

They weren’t just angry that Shutenmaru refused to help them—they were ashamed.

Momonosuke, their young master, the one they risked their lives to bring here, was cowering before their eyes. Instead of standing tall, he was shaking in fear, unable to say a word.

Just as the argument was about to escalate, a cloud of dust rose in the distance.

Another group of warriors charged toward them.

"The minions of Kurozumi Orochi and Kaido are coming! Run!"

Without hesitation, Shutenmaru let out a strange laugh, then turned and led his men into retreat.

Lucas Observes from Afar

Lucas had been watching everything unfold from a distance while discussing it with the chat group.

Sword God Ryuma: "My instincts were right—this kid is completely useless. Even his father’s old subordinates have no faith in him."

Whitebeard: "Oden, that fool, completely spoiled his son. From what Shutenmaru just said, this kid was a cowardly, perverted brat twenty years ago—and nothing has changed!"

Golden Lion Shiki: "Roger, what do you think?"

Pirate King Roger: "…"

Roger, for once, had nothing to say.

Fire Fist Ace: "I know the guy leading the Beasts Pirates' forces. It’s Drought Jack—one of Kaido’s top three officers. He’s an Ancient Zoan user, Elephant-Elephant Fruit, Ancient Zoan Model: Mammoth."

Sword God Ryuma: "What’s the plan? We could just let the Beasts Pirates get rid of this waste for us—it’d save us a lot of trouble."

Pirate King Roger: "Damn it, Ryuma! You’re too cruel! Momonosuke may be useless, but he’s still just a child!"

Sword God Ryuma: "You don’t understand shit! Wano is full of conservative fools. As long as this brat lives, they will force him onto the throne. If he becomes Shogun, more innocent people will die!"

Pirate King Roger: "…"

Golden Lion Shiki: "Shihahaha! Roger, remember why you started the Great Pirate Era? Sacrificing a few to save the many—that’s exactly what Ryuma is suggesting."

Whitebeard: "Gurararara! Roger, I never thought you’d be this much of a hypocrite!"

Lucas chuckled.

Lucas: "Relax. Let’s wait and see Momonosuke’s true nature for ourselves. After all, seeing is believing."

Lucas Makes His Move

As Momonosuke and his group attempted to slip away, Lucas stepped forward and blocked their path.

Kin'emon’s face darkened. "Who are you? Get out of the way!"

"Shut up!"

Lucas frowned, unleashing a controlled wave of Conqueror’s Haki.

Kin’emon staggered, nearly collapsing to his knees. He gritted his teeth, looking at Lucas with a mixture of shock and fear.

"You… You have the same ability as Lord Oden!" Kin’emon gasped. "What do you want?!"

Raizo and the others instinctively reached for their weapons, but hesitated. Was this man a friend or a foe?

Lucas remained calm.

"Relax. I’m here to help Wano gain its freedon. You don’t need to run—I’ll take care of Kaido and Orochi."

Kin'emon and the others exchanged wary glances. Could they trust him?

Ignoring their uncertainty, Lucas turned his back to them and walked toward Jack the Drought, who was fast approaching.

In his hand, he unsheathed his blade.

The blackened legendary sword, Shusui, gleamed ominously in the light.

"Shusui!"

Kin’emon and the others gasped.

They recognized the sword instantly.

But they dared not make a move.

Chapter 67: So Fierce?

"You are… New Emperor Lucas?"

Drought Jack came to an abrupt stop in front of Lucas, his expression serious as he eyed the man before him.

"This is Beasts Pirates’ territory! You don’t belong here. Leave now, or I won’t be so polite!"

Jack drew his two weapon, sword resembling a shotel, his tone carrying a clear threat.

In the chat group, Senju Hashirama chuckled.

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "Lucas, it seems your nickname has changed! Weren’t you originally called the Marine Traitor?"

Lucas: "Nickname? Forget it. What good ever comes from a nickname given by the World Government or the Marines?"

Whitebeard: "Gurara! The Four Emperors isn’t just a nickname, Marine Traitor… tsk tsk, now that’s a real title! Lucas, don’t you want to give yourself a proper nickname?"

Lucas: "No. The nicknames in the pirate world are all terrible. None of them fit my true identity. Besides, even if I had a good one, you people wouldn’t be able to say it properly."

Pirate King Roger grinned. "Oh? Then what do you want to be called?"

Lucas smirked. "How about... The Supreme Emperor of the Primordial Chaos Universe, Sovereign of Creation, Architect of Existence, Forger of Heaven’s Order, Keeper of the Sacred Sigil, Master of Life and Deatg, Lord of the Celestial Dao, Great Heavenly Venerate?"

Whitebeard: "…"

Sword God Ryuma: "This… nickname… Who in the world could actually say that properly?"

Roger laughed.

Pirate King Roger: "Nicknames should match a person’s defining trait—like Whitebeard’s beard, Golden Lion’s blond hair, Red Hair’s red hair, and you…"

Lucas: "And me what?"

Pirate King Roger: "I… I don’t want to be muted!"

Ding! Pirate King Roger has been muted for one minute!

Whitebeard: "???"

Golden Lion Shiki: "Wait—what did Roger even say? Did I miss something?"

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "He didn’t even say anything! Why was he muted?"

Lucas:"There’s a crime called slandering in your heart. Consider it a one-minute warning."

Golden Lion Shiki: "..."

Lucas: "What? You have an objection, Golden Lion?"

Shiki coughed. "No, no! I think the group leader made the right call! Roger always flirts with danger, so he deserves a warning!"

Whitebeard: "Hey! Look—Jack is about to make a move."

Because Lucas had been distracted, chatting in the group, Jack assumed he was being ignored.

His patience snapped.

"You bastard!"

Without hesitation, Jack attacked.

Ding!

Lucas casually drew his sword, effortlessly blocking the strike. With a slight push, he sent Jack skidding backward.

Then, he retaliated.

Slash!

Lucas activated Golden Lion’s swordsmanship, unleashing a terrifying sword energy slash powerful enough to tear through the sea for miles.

Jack raised his shotel to block—

But it was useless.

His weapons were shattered instantly, and he himself was blown away by the sheer force of the attack.

It was a one-sided battle.

Just as Big Mom had knocked out Queen the Plague with a single punch, Lucas had crushed Drought Jack in one move.

"You… bastard…!"

Despite being seriously injured, Jack’s fighting spirit remained unbroken. He glared at Lucas, still ready to fight.

In the chat group, Shiki was dumbfounded.

Golden Lion Shiki: "Is this guy sick? He’s already been beaten half to death, and he’s still provoking us?"

Whitebeard: "Normal! Kaido himself is a psychopath—so how could his subordinates not be crazy?"

Fire Fist Ace: "Yeah… When I fought Jack before, he was an absolute lunatic."

Gold Thief Woonan: "How crazy are we talking?"

Fire Fist Ace: "Well…"

Lucas answered for him.

Lucas: "Let me put it this way—even if there were two Marine Admirals standing in front of him, Drought Jack would still charge in headfirst without hesitation!"

Golden Lion Shiki: "So fierce?"

Whitebeard: "Gurarara! That’s insane! Even the Golden Lion was defeated when fighting two Admirals at once. And yet, this lunatic… Well, no wonder he’s constantly getting his ass kicked."

Lucas slowly approached Jack, carrying his blade, Shusui.

But he didn’t bother using his sword.

Without a word, he clenched his fist, channeling the combined power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and Armament Haki.

Then—

Boom!

Jack took the full force of the attack.

His giant Zoan-enhanced body shattered like glass.

With just one punch—

Jack the Drought was dead.

"Oh my god! Lord Jack is dead! RUN!"

"Report this to Lord Kaido immediately!"

Jack’s subordinates, witnessing their commander’s instant defeat, were overcome with sheer terror. They didn’t even think about fighting back—

They simply turned and ran for their lives.

Kin’emon and his group stood frozen, their minds struggling to process what had just happened.

Lucas had… killed Jack.

In one hit.

It wasn’t until the panicked Beasts Pirates scattered that they finally snapped out of their shock.

"Stop them!" Kin'emon shouted. "If they report back to Kaido, we’ll be in trouble!"

Lucas, however, simply raised his hand and waved them off.

"Let them go."

Kin’emon frowned. "But—"

Lucas smirked.

"It’s better this way. Now I don’t have to go looking for Kaido—he’ll come straight to me."

Chapter 68: This Is More Than a Surprise. It Is a Shock!

Wano Country, Onigashima.

This was the stronghold of Kaido, the King of Beasts. Deep within a cavernous hall, Kaido sat drinking when one of his subordinates rushed in with an urgent report.

"What?" Kaido's voice boomed, his brows furrowing.

"That bastard Lucas not only set foot in our territory, but he also killed Jack!" the subordinate blurted out, his voice trembling.

Kaido's expression darkened instantly. With a furious roar, he hurled the massive gourd of sake in his hand, smashing it against the ground with a deafening crash. "He's courting death!"

Rising to his full height, Kaido grabbed his spiked kanabo and stormed out of the cave, his presence exuding pure menace.

Just as he emerged, one of the Three Disasters, King the Wildfire, appeared before him and spoke gravely, "Brother Kaido! According to the reports from our airborne scouts, Lucas didn’t come alone."

Kaido narrowed his eyes. "Did he bring an army?"

King nodded. "Yes. Since he possesses the Float-Float Fruit once wielded by the legendary Golden Lion Shiki, he has the power to turn entire islands into flying fortresses. Our intelligence suggests he used a floating island to transport the elite forces of the Whitebeard Pirates to Wano."

For a moment, Kaido was silent. Then, a deep, guttural laugh rumbled from his chest before erupting into full-blown laughter. " Worororo! Perfect, gather our forces—we'll give this so-called new Emperor a proper welcome!" His grin twisted into a snarl. "If it weren’t for that meddlesome Red-Haired Shanks constantly interfering, I would've seized Whitebeard’s former territories long ago."

Meanwhile, unknown to the Beasts Pirates, spies hidden within their ranks had already relayed the news to the World Government.

Red Line, Mary Geoise.

In the hallowed chambers of power, the Five Elders convened, their expressions grim as they reviewed the latest intelligence.

Saint Topman Warcury-Saint Topman Warcury, notorious for his temper, slammed his hand on the table. "That damn Lucas has been nothing but trouble since the day he appeared!"

The World Government had already taken note of the disappearance of Fish-Man Island—and worse, they knew exactly where it had gone. The entire island had pledged allegiance to Lucas.

For centuries, Fish-Man Island had served as little more than a subservient vassal to the World Government, offering tributes in exchange for hollow promises of protection. They were treated with the same indifference as a discarded pawn.

Yet now, much like a scorned aristocrat who cares little for a former admirer—until another man steals her away—the World Government found itself furious at the loss of control.

The blond-haired elder-Saint Shepherd Ju Peter spoke in a measured tone, "The Seraphim project, meant to replace the Seven Warlords, has yet to be completed. The last thing we need right now is widespread chaos."

The elder wielding a long sword-Saint Ethanbaron V, Nusjuro suggested, "Our influence in the New World is limited. Preventing a war between Lucas and Kaido directly will be difficult. Instead, why not let Red-Haired Shanks handle it?"

The bearded elder-Saint Jaygarica Saturn nodded. "An excellent idea. Shanks has always been devoted to maintaining balance on the seas. Even if we don't ask him, he’ll likely intervene once he hears of this impending conflict."

A smirk tugged at the corner of the Longhaired elder’s Saint Marcus Mars lips. "Then let’s make sure he hears about it. Send word to Red-Haired Shanks. Let him see this as a gesture of goodwill on our part."

Wano Country, Kuri.

In the village of Amigasa, Kin'emon, alongside Momonosuke, followed Lucas with anxious hearts. Awaiting them were Marco, Izo, and other familiar faces, including the esteemed Tenguyama Hitetsu.

"Elder brother…"

"Younger brother…"

The reunion between Izo and Kikunojo, two cross-dressing samurai, was so dramatic that those unfamiliar with their relationship turned red with secondhand embarrassment.

After an emotional heart-to-heart, Kin'emon and the other time-travelers fully grasped the situation. They learned of Lucas’s immense strength, his standing as a rival to Kaido, and most importantly, his commitment to helping Wano reclaim its sovereignty.

Tears welled in Raizo’s eyes as he looked at Momonosuke. "Lord Momonosuke, the time has come. You will soon restore Wano and fulfill Lord Oden’s dream!"

Momonosuke, swept up in the excitement, practically glowed with joy at the prospect of reclaiming his birthright. Overcome with emotion, his childish nature surfaced as he immediately began flirting with several young women from the village.

In the Chat Group.

Pirate King Roger: "..."

Pirate King Roger: "I take back what I said before. We should just kill this brat. Keeping him alive is an insult to Oden."

Sword God Ryuma: "He’s still a child. He hasn’t become shogun yet, nor does he have the ability to do anything. This is the perfect time to eliminate him before he turns into a problem."

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "But if he dies, who will inherit the position of shogun?"

Sword God Ryuma: "Do you actually care about that?"

Lucas: "Of course I care! But let’s talk about something else for a moment. Hashirama Senju—who was literally invincible in his world, capable of single-handedly crushing every shinobi alive—chose not to unify the ninja world. Instead, he set up a system where ninja villages bowed to a daimyo. Surprised?"

Golden Lion Shiki: "This is more than a surprise. It’s a shock! @Senju Hashirama, are you out of your mind? If I had that level of power, I would've conquered the world ages ago!"

Chapter 69: Great Earth Mage—Here Comes the Show!

"Lucas!"

"You damn bastard, come out and face your death!"

"I haven’t even gone after you yet, and you dare to come to me on your own initiative?!"

A thunderous voice rumbled through the sky as a massive green dragon, its limbs wreathed in flames, soared toward them from the horizon.

"That’s… Kaido, the King of Beasts!"

"The evil dragon himself!"

Seeing the blue-scaled beast approach with overwhelming force, Kin'emon and the others paled, their voices trembling with fear.

"Hey, hey! Why are you panicking? Our boss is still here!" Marco said calmly, and the other captains remained unfazed.

Despite Kaido’s fearsome reputation, the Whitebeard Pirates had clashed with him multiple times. The so-called strongest creature in the world had repeatedly attacked them, only to be beaten and left sinking into the sea by Whitebeard’s crew.

"Well look like the main course is here!" Lucas smirked, lightly stomping the ground. Instantly, the earth roared, and the ground trembled like a volcano on the verge of eruption. A massive surge of soil and stone shot into the sky, coalescing into an enormous rock dragon.

Showtime!

Kaido squinted, then burst into laughter. "Hah! This is the ability of that old fossil, Golden Lion! Back then, he created a giant lion with it, and now you’ve made a dragon? Stop kidding around!"

His amusement was short-lived. With a drunken hiccup, he roared in fury and unleashed a devastating blast of dragon breath, hurtling it toward the rock dragon with unrelenting force.

Unfazed, Lucas’s rock dragon countered by swinging its mighty tail, infused with top-tier Armament Haki. The tail strike cleanly dispersed the scorching dragon breath, leaving Kaido momentarily stunned.

"You disgusting creature, get lost!" Kaido bellowed, diving straight at Lucas.

Without hesitation, Lucas commanded his rock dragon forward, engaging Kaido’s dragon in a titanic clash.

Though the rock dragon was slightly inferior to Kaido’s in raw power, Lucas’s unparalleled mastery of Armament Haki allowed it to hold its own in battle.

In the Chat Group.

Senju Hashirama, watching the fight unfold, was stunned.

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "So this is the power of the Four Emperors? Incredible! That dragon controls wind, fire, thunder, and lightning! My Wood Dragon can’t even compare…"

He thought about his own wooden construct—a dragon without even claws—and felt a wave of dejection.

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "Brother, don’t sell yourself short! Your Wood Dragon may look simple, but its strength is nothing to scoff at."

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "Hahahaha! That’s true! Besides, I still have Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands and it is way bigger than any of these dragons! And… maybe I should figure out how to give my wooden dragon claws too."

Sword God Ryuma: "Your wooden dragon?"

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "That’s right! My Wood Release can summon a dragon. Here, let me show you."

Ding! Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Wood Release—Wood Dragon] to group leader Lucas.

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "Wait… Can the group leader even use chakra-based techniques like Flying Thunder God and Wood Release?"

Lucas : "No worries! Any techniques you send me convert into skills. I just need to use physical energy instead of chakra, and they function at full power."

As he spoke, Lucas activated the Wood Dragon Technique.

No hand seals required.

A clawless wooden dragon sprang forth from his body, lunging directly at Kaido. However, with a single deafening roar, Kaido unleashed a chaotic storm of wind, thunder, and flame, all infused with his own Armament Haki, reducing the wooden dragon to mere splinters.

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "..."

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "..."

Hashirama was dumbfounded.

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "That doesn’t make sense. My Wood Dragon is supposed to be powerful, right?!"

Lucas chuckled.

Luvas: "You thought it was powerful because your past opponents were weaker than you. But Kaido is on your level. You really expected a basic technique—one that you summon just by clapping your hands—to work against an opponent like him? You’re overthinking this!"

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "Eh? That actually makes sense! But still, I won’t accept this loss!"

Ding! Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Sage Mode] to group leader Lucas.

Ding! Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands] to group leader Lucas.

Fueled by his competitive spirit, Hashirama immediately gifted two of his most powerful techniques to Lucas without hesitation.

Lucas accepted the gifts with glee. "First Hokage, you’re the best! Watch me—I’m about to wreck Kaido with Wood Release!"

Activating Sage Mode in an instant, Lucas unleashed his ultimate technique.

Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands!

A colossal wooden Buddha, large enough to blot out the sky, began to rise behind Lucas. Its sheer size and overwhelming aura left Kaido momentarily speechless.

And with good reason.

The gigantic Buddha was so massive that it could grasp Kaido’s dragon form with just one hand.

Chapter 70: Kaido, I’ll Give You Both Hands!

The chat group erupted in astonishment as Lucas unleashed the overwhelming power of the Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands. Even among legendary warriors like Whitebeard and the Golden Lion, who were proud of their own immense strength, the sheer scale and impact of this enormous wooden construct left them momentarily speechless.

It wasn’t just the power that amazed them—it was the sheer audacity of summoning something so vast and imposing that it dwarfed even the largest creatures of the world.

Fire Fist Ace: "This is insane… even the giants, no—Oars himself wouldn’t stand a chance against this!"

Whitebeard: "Gurarara! This wooden behemoth isn’t much smaller than Sanjuan Wolf, the Giant Battleship. I never thought I’d see something like this outside of a natural disaster."

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "Wait, wait—what do you mean? You’re saying there are beings in your world as large as my True Several Thousand Hands?"

Golden Lion Shiki: "Hahaha! What a riot! The so-called Giant Battleship isn’t an actual ship—it’s a living, breathing person!"

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "That doesn’t make any sense. A person that large? Even if this a different world from where we came from, It hard to believe a giant behemoth like that truly exist! Don’t try to fool me!"

Lucas: "It’s true! Hashirama, Tobirama, no need to be so skeptical. You’ll see it for yourselves soon enough."

Outside World

Kaido, the King of Beasts, stood below the colossal wooden Buddha, his expression twisting in a mixture of fury and disbelief. The sheer size of the construct loomed over him, casting a shadow so immense that it darkened the battlefield. For the first time in ages, Kaido felt the unmistakable sensation of being looked down upon—both literally and figuratively. And that infuriated him beyond words.

With a guttural snarl, Kaido summoned the full might of his abilities. His draconic form surged with elemental fury—wind, fire, thunder, and lightning all intertwining in a chaotic dance of destruction. The skies above crackled with energy as he unleashed his wrath upon the towering construct before him.

Lucas, however, showed no hesitation. His colossal wooden Buddha, infused with his indomitable will and mastery over Wood Release, clenched its countless hands into fists.

With an earth-shaking roar, the thousand arms descended like a divine storm, raining blows upon Kaido with unrelenting force.

"Buddha’s Wrath!"

"Kaido, I’ll give you both hands!"

Lucas’s voice echoed across the battlefield, brimming with dominance. The entire sky seemed to tremble as the thousand fists struck like meteors, battering Kaido relentlessly.

"GET LOST! I DON'T NEED YOUR MERCY—DIE!" Kaido bellowed, refusing to yield. He charged into the storm of blows, his Haki-clad body smashing through the onslaught, sending wooden debris flying in all directions.

Yet, despite his ferocity, the endless barrage of wooden fists continued to press down upon him, forcing him back step by step.

Golden Lion Shiki: "So this is why they call him Senju right, Shihahahaha!" [*Tl: Senju name meaning is A Thousand Hand]

Whitebeard: "Impressive! This isn’t just some ordinary wood. The density and strength rival the toughest steel I’ve encountered! It’s like a moving fortress of pure power."

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "Naturally! Wood Release is one of the most powerful Kekkei Genkai in our world. It can even suppress Tailed Beasts, creatures of overwhelming destruction. If that dragon in front of us were a Tailed Beast, it would already be under Lucas’s control."

Fire Fist Ace: "Tailed Beasts? What kind of monsters are those?"

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "They are colossal beings with immense chakra, capable of destroying entire landscapes with a single attack. But don’t worry—I’ve already subdued all of them before."

Howard Stark: "I don’t know if I should be impressed or if this is just the biggest flex I’ve ever heard."

Pirate King Roger: "Actually, if this wood is as strong as the legendary Treasure Tree Adam… wouldn’t it be perfect for shipbuilding?"

Lucas: "That’s a great idea! We should definitely experiment with it later."

Outside World

The Thousand-Handed Buddha unleashed one final devastating strike, forcing Kaido to the ground. His massive body crashed into the terrain, creating a massive crater upon impact.

Lucas stepped forward, his wooden colossus moving in tandem, its remaining hands drawing back as he prepared the finishing move.

Lucas: "@Senju Hashirama @Senju Tobirama, do you have any powerful sealing techniques? I want to imprison this dragon and study him properly."

First Hokage, Senju Hashirama: "Sealing techniques? I’m not too skilled in that field, but I do have the Four Symbols Seal. If you need something for pure suppression, Sage Art: Gate of the Great God."

Ding! Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Sealing Technique - Four Symbols Seal] to group leader Lucas.

Ding! Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Sage Art: Gate of the Great God] to group leader Lucas.

Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama: "Sealing techniques? The best I have is the Eight Trigrams Seal. It combines two Four Symbols Seals and is strong enough to suppress even the Nine-Tails, the most powerful of all Tailed Beasts."

Ding! Senju Tobirama has sent an exclusive red envelope [Sealing Technique - Eight Trigrams Seal] to group leader Lucas.

Lucas: "Perfect!"

Without delay, Lucas activated the sealing technique. The colossal wooden Buddha extended its hand over Kaido, forming intricate sealing marks that rapidly spread across his dragon form.

Kaido, sensing the danger, let out a furious roar. His body surged with raw energy, shattering the initial layers of the sealing marks.

"Still struggling?" Lucas smirked.

With a sharp motion, he activated Sage Art: Gate of the Great God —a gargantuan wooden torii gate fell from the sky, crashing down upon Kaido’s body, pinning him in place.

Kaido snarled, twisting and thrashing. His Haki erupted in a surge of dark purple lightning, obliterating the first gate.
