T/N: Happy (late) New Year! Got a a bit busy over the holidays, but here are 3 chapters to make up for it! If you are enjoying the story, please support it where you can! It greatly motivates me to continue!
"Issho, I'll leave King to you. I'm going after Kaido."
Shiro's voice carried a calm, immovable resolve.
He turned slightly toward Issho—just a brief glance, but one filled with absolute trust.
They had fought together for years.
No more words were needed.
Fujitora nodded.
With a soft ripple of compressed air—the mark of the Paw-Paw Fruit—Shiro vanished.
PING.
In an instant, he appeared high above the battlefield, landing firmly atop Kaido's massive dragon head.
Cold azure scales glimmered beneath his feet.
Shiro stood balanced, unshaken, as if a sky-serpent were nothing more than a solid platform.
"Get OFF my head!!!"
Kaido roared with fury the moment he felt an intruder atop him.
He whipped his colossal body violently, thrashing, diving, twisting—trying to fling Shiro off and crush him.
But Shiro's teleportation made the attempt meaningless.
Thrown off?
He reappeared immediately back on Kaido's head.
Once.
Twice.
Dozens of times.
Calm. Effortless. Almost taunting.
Kaido's rage boiled over.
With a bellow that shook Onigashima, his dragon form contracted—dissolving into smoke and reforming limbs—and he slammed down onto the battlefield in his human form.
Shiro teleported down as well, landing in front of him.
The decisive battle for Wano had begun.
Elsewhere on Onigashima…
Fujitora advanced toward King, sword drawn, undaunted by the blazing flames trailing from the Lunarian's back.
Gravity and fire collided in a violent storm.
Jinbe squared off against Jack the Drought.
Jack's brutal twin-blade swings clashed against surging waves of Fish-Man Karate.
Each punch Jinbe threw carried a crushing force that rippled like ocean tides.
Crocodile hunted the fleeing Queen mercilessly.
Even missing an arm, Queen's steel-plated, cybernetic body launched bizarre counterattacks—
but Crocodile's sandstorms carved through everything, forcing Queen back again and again.
The tobiroppo joined the war.
Black Maria, Ulti, and Page One surged into battle.
But opponents awaited them.
Black Maria's webs and illusions met Brook's ghostlike speed.
The Soul King danced between traps, slicing her guards and freezing her limbs with bone-chilling soul techniques.
Ulti charged headfirst at Zeff—
but Zeff's Float-Float Fruit let him drift and strike from impossible angles, his kicks landing with aerial grace.
Page One faced Hachi, who fought with all eight limbs at once.
Tentacles wrapped, blocked, countered, and punched—meeting dinosaur strength with Fish-Man technique.
Moria led the Wano rebellion like a demon unleashed.
Shadow soldiers surged beside tens of thousands of furious citizens.
Beast Pirates grunts fell like grass before a wildfire.
The people of Wano swept toward Orochi's castle, determined to end decades of suffering.
At the edge of the battlefield…
Despite Shiro's strict order to stay behind, Robin stepped into the war.
She knew she wasn't a match for the All-Stars or the Tobiroppo—
but she refused to watch her comrades bleed while doing nothing.
Countless arms bloomed across the battlefield, created from her Hana-Hana Fruit—grabbing, tripping, choking, binding, disarming Beast Pirates soldiers.
And Patrick Redfield—the Red Earl— watched only her.
Whenever danger neared Robin, a single flash of his blade ended it, so swiftly she never noticed.
The legendary lone wolf fought for no one today.
He simply guarded the girl he cared for.
Shiro vs. Kaido — A Clash of Titans
Their duel dominated all of Onigashima.
Both bore Divine-Class Devil Fruits, fruits once tied to the tragedy of God Valley.
Shiro's Paw-Paw Fruit gave him movement beyond logic and the ability to repel pain and injury—creating a nearly immortal fighter.
Kaido's Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Model: Azure Dragon, granted overwhelming endurance and monstrous regeneration.
Both commanded all three forms of Haki at the highest level.
Both were complete warriors—no flaws, no weaknesses.
Shiro's blade, Tetanus Fang, glowed with deadly aura.
Kaido's iron club radiated murderous intent.
They met again and again—
CLANG!
CRASH!
BOOM!
Sparks scattered like meteors.
Shockwaves split the stone floors of Onigashima.
Crater after crater formed beneath their feet.
Kaido unleashed breath attacks and slicing winds—
but Shiro weaved through all of it, teleporting between gaps and landing precise, Haki-coated slashes.
Their Conqueror's Haki clashed across the sky, splitting clouds and shaking the entire island.
The battle for Wano raged on.
