Chapter 160 Confronting King
"Brett, I need your help!"
This was what Charlotte Linlin said.
"Hmm?"
Kaido paused for a moment. "Brett—"
This name wasn't entirely unfamiliar—he'd heard it before.
The enemy that brat Doflamingo had always kept on his mind.
Did this hag Linlin mean for that guy to go after King?
Kaido sneered.
"Raging Three-Realm Ragnaraku!!"
Kaido leaped up, his kanabo spinning, then crashing down with black lightning spreading upward straight into the clouds above.
"I'll chat with you later!!"
Charlotte Linlin shouted, gripping her great sword with both hands and striking back without showing any weakness.
That brat Brett's strength was enough to suppress Katakuri. If he was willing to act, then stopping King definitely wouldn't be a problem.
"..."
Brett, suddenly called upon, felt somewhat helpless.
He'd only wanted to watch the show properly.
"Hey, Brett, what do you say?"
Tesoro looked like he was enjoying the chaos, turning back with a grin. "If you help now, then the other objective for coming to Cake Island this time could also be achieved."
Besides coming to Cake Island to watch Doflamingo's misfortune, the other purpose was to resolve the trust issues with Charlotte Linlin.
Brett looked up. In the sky above, a giant bird like a heavy bomber was approaching.
"Flame Emperor!"
The man called King the Wildfire transformed into a massive pteranodon, and just by flapping his wings downward, enormous flames gathered into a mass that plummeted down.
It was like the sun falling from the sky!
"Hey!!"
Smoothie, who was wielding her great sword to prevent Doflamingo from escaping, looked up in panic and shouted, "Someone stop this guy!"
Two older brothers immediately jumped up.
Katakuri's twin younger brothers—Charlotte Oven and Charlotte Daifuku.
Oven was a Paramecia Heat-Heat Fruit user who could generate high temperatures himself. So he fearlessly wrapped himself in Armament Haki and charged straight at the falling fireball, directly smashing it apart.
Daifuku, like a genie's lamp from fairy tales, rubbed his belly and released a stream of smoke.
This smoke passed over the fireball and blocked King's path, then condensed into a genie wielding a massive war blade.
"Don't get in my way! Imperial Flaming Wings!"
Facing the approaching two brothers, King even accelerated. His wings were already jet-black, but now they were also wrapped in the luster of Haki.
SLASH!
The massive demon's war blade never fell—its body was already severed at the waist.
"Wahhh!!"
Oven fared even worse. Like a baseball struck hard by a bat, he crashed down thunderously, his arms already bloody.
CRASH!
Oven smashed into the ground, the surface rippling like waves as a huge crater was blasted open.
"Damn it!!"
Smoothie's expression changed dramatically.
This guy was simply too strong—the two brothers were no match at all.
But she couldn't spare any hands right now.
"Brett," Stussy suddenly spoke while Brett was still watching the show. "Didn't Linlin ask you to help?"
She said cheerfully, "We're all friends—don't let her down!"
Brett raised an eyebrow.
Understood. She wanted to finish off that guy Doflamingo right here, rather than let Kaido rescue him, right?
How interesting.
The positions among the three factions kept changing constantly.
When Kaido first appeared, he'd clearly been CP0's reinforcement.
But now it was completely different.
Brett's mouth curved upward. "Since it's a friend's request, well, there are unavoidable reasons to step up."
Lightning crackled across his body, and the next instant, he shot up into the sky like a meteor.
"Oh, Six Powers."
Stussy covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
However, if anyone looked carefully at her, they could see a flash of shock in her eyes.
His Moon Walk proficiency was incredibly high.
Even among CP0, there were few faster than him.
In just an instant, Brett had reached high altitude, where a black shadow was almost upon him.
"Don't get in my way!!"
King's voice was quite cold.
This was natural—after all, to him, Brett was really just a nobody.
From the flames behind his head, flame bullets shot forth like they were about to turn Brett into a honeycomb.
But Brett didn't even think of dodging, charging straight up into the bullets.
Pop pop pop pop.
All the bullets exploded into small flowers on Brett's body, but couldn't harm him at all.
"What?"
King was greatly shocked.
This level of physical toughness.
He'd only seen this on himself, Kaido-san, and Charlotte Linlin.
What was up with this kid?
He had no time to think further—lightning was already before him.
"Current Propulsion - Demon Tile True Fist!"
Brett's fist was wreathed in electric current.
"Imperial Flaming Wings!"
King's wing crashed down.
BOOM!!
Thunder roared in the sky.
"What?"
Kaido, who was fiercely battling Charlotte Linlin, turned his head in shock.
That guy had actually stopped King?
"Mamama! Kaido! You're getting cocky too early!"
Charlotte Linlin laughed heartily.
That brat Brett's strength was indeed extraordinary.
She'd have to win him over properly after this.
In the sky, after one clash, Brett and King simultaneously pulled back.
What a hard body!
Brett clenched his fist, shooting toward King while marveling inwardly.
Even flowing Haki couldn't break his defense.
In defensive mode, this guy's hardness probably exceeded even Kaido's.
Such strong power and Haki!
The flames behind King's head extinguished. When he flapped his wings, his speed instantly increased by more than one level, no longer inferior to Brett's at all.
In a flash, he'd circled to Brett's side.
He'd already returned to human form, drawing the long sword at his waist, flames rising along the blade.
The blade chopped down!
Fast, but not fast enough!
Brett's reaction ability was unmatched by anyone in the world. In a flash, he stepped on air to pull back and avoid King's strike, then threw a punch while dodging.
"Murakumogiri!!"
Electric waves, Haki, and water waves—three abilities fused into one. Magnificent vibrations instantly spread out, directly blowing King away.
"Ugh!!"
King cried out in pain, the flames behind his head quickly reigniting as he entered defensive mode again.
As his speed dropped, Brett had already closed in once more.
"Let's continue! King the Wildfire!"
Brett's smile was quite enjoyable.
Flow-level Haki couldn't break King's defense—but what about internal destruction?
Let's try it. This man was the perfect sparring partner!
