At the same time…
Grand Line, somewhere at sea…
Inside a church in a certain kingdom.
Dragon stood in the shadows of a corner, arms crossed, his face completely hidden beneath a dark green hooded coat. He watched the long line of people ahead with a look of helplessness.
The crowd, thin and ragged, stretched in a long line. At the front stood a towering figure in priestly robes.
He wore frameless glasses and spoke gently to a hunched old man in front of him.<...

What the hell is wrong with this brat?
Does he actually enjoy getting beaten!?
The twisted thought popped into Kaidou’s mind without warning, sending an involuntary chill down his spine.
Something wasn’t right...
Even as the thought formed, that blood-drenched Vice Admiral came charging at him again.
“Damn it! Get the hell away from me!!”
The sight of that increasingly deranged grin on Daren’s face made Kaidou’s skin crawl.
Grimacing, he d...

The explosive storm condensed into a crushing pressure that descended from above.
Even before the kanabō wrapped in Conqueror’s Haki came down, its overwhelming force had already shattered and torn the ground beneath Daren’s feet, sending rocks flying in every direction.
Though every one of Kaidou’s moves was just another swing of his club—with different angles and force—this strike was on a whole other level.
Daren could feel it.
Unlike the last time, when ...

“How fascinating...”
Daren grinned as he tore off his tattered military uniform, revealing a well-trained, muscular torso.
His bare upper body was drenched in blood, skin torn and lacerated—a horrifying sight. Yet, in that moment, the bloodstained skin seemed to shimmer with a cold, steely sheen.
He could feel the changes in his body, and a cocky smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
It was only a small boost in stats, yet after crossing the 90-point threshold,...

What the hell is going on!?
Is that Marine trying to get himself killed!?
Queen’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. Even when his cigar burned his lip, he didn’t notice—he just stared in disbelief at the Vice Admiral, who once again hurled himself straight at Kaidou.
Not far away, King looked just as stunned.
Part of him was shocked by the Marine’s sheer willpower and physical toughness. But more than that, he was baffled—utterly confused by Daren’s ...

Chapter 46: Come on, Kaidou-sensei
Queen's face flushed red with grievance and frustration.
He hadn’t done anything wrong!
All he did was follow Kaidou-sama’s orders and make those two brats in the prison wish they were dead. He even used the latest viruses he’d developed!
Who could’ve predicted that the deadly viruses he worked so hard on would actually make them stronger!?

Kaidou shot the fat man a fierce glare a...

As the battle intensified, Morgan wasn’t the only one considering the release of her Noble Phantasm’s true name.
Artoria was thinking the same.
But simply cutting down these tentacles wasn’t enough to stop the sea demons from multiplying. Without a way to directly communicate with her true Master, Kiritsugu Emiya, she needed to confirm things one last time with Iri.
By now, the true names of the Servants were already known to each other, so there was no longer any need...

A strike faster than lightning!
Daren’s eyes snapped wide open, and brilliant purple lightning flared deep within his pupils.
This wasn’t the first time he’d faced Kaidou’s chaotic “club swing,” but no matter how many times he confronted it head-on, the pressure of that move was still suffocating in its intensity!
Too fast!
It felt like a thunderbolt tearing through the void—raw power and speed unleashed in a perfect, unstoppable line.

The palace's ornate, opulent dome suddenly shattered. A sky shrouded in dark clouds flickered with black and red lightning storms, instantly catching everyone’s eye.
Chunks of stone and tile came crashing down, walls cracked and shook, and clouds of dust billowed into the air.
Chaos erupted in the palace hall as members of the Beasts Pirates scrambled for cover. They clutched their heads, struggling both to resist the pressure of their captain’s Conqueror’s Haki and to dodge...

Ever since Daren helped the Marines take down the Beasts Pirates' main base, Kaidou and the remnants of his crew had vanished without a trace.
The only known sightings were during the scramble for the Moa Moa no Mi on Coin Island, where King “the Conflagration” made an appearance, and when Kaidou joined forces with Shiki and Big Mom to launch an assault on Marineford.
In fact, after capturing the Beasts Pirates' headquarters, Marine HQ had originally drafted a plan to follow u...

Daren didn’t know whether the seed he planted would truly take root in Katakuri’s heart and grow into something meaningful—but it was an intriguing experiment.
Charlotte Katakuri, hailed in the original story as the pinnacle of the Charlotte family, wasn’t someone Daren particularly disliked.
On the contrary, he found himself deeply fascinated by this tragic figure—utterly loyal to Big Mom and fiercely devoted to the Big Mom Pirates.

The Vice Admiral’s speed exploded to the limit—within a second, he had vanished without a trace.
All that remained was a white contrail slicing through the burning clouds of the sunset, like a jet streaking across the sky.

That arrogant Marine... just ran off like that?
But along with the disbelief came a heavy wave of helplessness.

If Katakuri’s usual fighting style was like that of a swift and powerful cheetah—clean, efficient, and precise in hunting down his prey—then right now, he was a completely different beast.
His bloodshot eyes were laced with a web of crimson veins. He had abandoned all defense, his body radiating nothing but frenzied killing intent.
At this moment, he had only one goal.
—to tear apart the Marine who dared call himself his “father”!

Those words struck Katakuri like a thunderclap, piercing straight through his sensitive heart and soul.
Daren’s earlier taunts had already wounded his pride and shaken the core of his self-worth.
Because of Big Mom’s personality, she had always been an absent figure within the massive Charlotte family. She never truly fulfilled her role as a mother or took responsibility for raising her children.
So from a young age, Katakuri had carried the weight of expectations. As th...

How could such luck be real?
Katakuri, at such a young age, had not only trained his Observation Haki to the level of future sight, but had also awakened his Devil Fruit ability?
That kind of talent... was downright terrifying.
When someone pushes their Devil Fruit ability to its limits, they can reach the stage known as “awakening.”
As far as Daren knew, the effects of awakening varied depending on the Devil Fruit type.
For Zoan-types, awakening granted the ...
