One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 45: The Azure Dragon Soars in the Sky, and All Beasts Prostrate on the Ground

"I am the Blue Dragon Kaido!"

A hundred-meter-long green dragon was circling, dragging its long body up into the sky with auspicious clouds, pointing directly at the figure that seemed like a god.

The lower body of the giant god soldier is a cloud, and the upper body is like an ancient general. He slowly lowers his eyebrows, and his thousand-meter-long body hovers in the air, overlooking the small green dragon rising into the sky.

"Long beep - lightning for thousands of miles!"

The mighty sound echoed throughout the sea, and countless lightning bolts of varying sizes swarmed out in an instant, and in just a moment, every part of the hundred-meter-long dragon was electrified, leaving it burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Even dragon scales that are strong enough to withstand being soaked in lava would appear fragile after being subjected to hundreds of repeated electric shocks!
Kaido's eyes turned white, and his dragon body in the air shrank rapidly. Then he turned into a five-meter-tall giant and fell down into the sea, his life or death unknown.

The thunderclouds seemed to have exhausted their strength and began to dissipate, and the giant god soldier standing in the center was looming.

After a giant white cloud hand pulled Kaido's half-dead body out of the seabed and placed it on the ruined base, the whole world quietly returned to normal.

It seemed as if everything that just happened was just a short dream.

High in the sky, Ross was breathing heavily. There was nothing he could do. That was his ultimate move just now. Kaido would never have thought that his opponent would use his ultimate move as soon as they met.

Otherwise, if I want to defeat the strong Kaido, I'm afraid I will have to spend more effort. It's nothing else but flesh and blood.

After recovering a little, Ross slowly came to the ground.

The base was already empty at this time. The little pirates had been stunned by Kaido's domineering color. The few remaining determined guys were also frightened by the calamity-like appearance and fainted, and stopped struggling.

After all, they are just prisoners of the branch base, and even the underwater prison will not send them to jail immediately.

Came to Kaido's side.

Rose could only feel his faint breathing and the flickering lifeline.

Ninety-eight percent of his skin was burned, and the smell of burnt meat lingered on his nose. Ross estimated that Kaido was at least five-tenths cooked!
Sitting cross-legged on the land on one side, Ross waited for the navy to come and take over this trouble.

Originally, he was planning to go to the Endless War Country in the New World to adopt a son today, who is the "Devil's Heir" Douglas Barrett in the original work!

He has precisely located the target's location, which is located at the front end of the New World in the second half of the Grand Line, the Endless War Archipelago [Fort Jarz] composed of several countries.

At this time, the eight-year-old Barrett has graduated from the Boy Scouts and entered the battlefield. He has already understood part of the cruelty of the world and is about to experience what it means to be betrayed by his teammates, and then begin his legendary journey.

And now is the best time for Rose to appear!
He left a towering image in front of a child who was deeply betrayed and about to fight to his death.

As for the reason for adopting each other?
It's very simple. It's enough to be impressed by his talent. There are never so many whys in the sea.

Feelings can be developed slowly over time, there is no rush.

Soon after, a warship sailed into the port.

Coming off the warship, Zhan Guo looked at the devastated G7 division in silence.

Everywhere were the broken corpses of marines and pirates fighting each other. The blood dyed the entire island red, and there was no place without traces of blood and tears.

The accompanying sailors were also silent, with anger surging in their eyes!

After a long time, Sengoku saw Ross and the dying Kaido in the distance.

"Mr. Ross, thank you for your rescue!"

He knew what had happened at a glance, and then thanked Ross solemnly.

He didn't say anything stupid, like why he didn't save the branch marines or something like that. He only knew that now these dead marines could get a moment of rest.

"It's okay. I just took care of it when I passed by. By the way, this guy's nickname is Azure Dragon Kaido, right?" "Yes, and the World Government has been looking for him for a long time. After all, he is a mythical beast. It is too dangerous to leave it in the sea! I will have someone send his bounty to Cloud Island, so don't worry."

"Well, by the way, let's give him a new name. The Azure Dragon soars in the sky, and all the beasts lie on the ground. I think the nickname of Hundred Beasts is quite suitable for this guy."

Ross said, then stood up and dusted himself off.

Although Sengoku didn't know why Ross said that, after looking at Kaido who was dying like a dead dog, he finally felt that the nickname "Hundred Beasts" was indeed more suitable.

Anyway, Kaido's destination is the underwater prison. The Navy and the World Government have adopted a policy of not killing people with such fruit abilities to prevent these powerful fruits from flowing into the sea and causing new disasters.

Both parties nodded, Ross pulled down a cloud and left, leaving Zhan Guo alone standing there.

Of course Zhan Guo knew what had happened before. Such a large thundercloud could be seen clearly even without a telescope.

He was only thankful that such a capable, powerful and financially resourceful person was inclined towards the navy.

Not long ago, Navy Captain Rawl was officially promoted to the position of Commodore. He deserves this honor for capturing such a big pirate.

Although Morganse was stirring up discord in the newspapers, only the common people who did not know the truth would believe such discord.

The Navy is actually happy about this. As long as Sakaski is in the Navy, the Navy will welcome Nasdaq.

What's more, Ross is really generous! In ancient times, he would give away things as he wished. Yatuo is also very generous, giving away hundreds of billions of arms as he wished!

Recently even the salaries of senior naval officers have been restored, which is cause for celebration!

However, looking at the ruined G7 branch, Zhan Guo's originally wonderful mood was instantly shattered.

How much will this reconstruction cost? I estimate that salaries will have to be cut again in the next two months, and the days of belt-tightening will come again.

"Ugh!"

With a sigh, he dragged Kaido's body and led the accompanying marines away, preparing to report to the headquarters and to escort the great pirate Kaido.

…………

On the other side, Ross was leisurely flying in the sky on a small cloud.

Only when he occasionally encountered an ancient island would he stop for a moment and search the island for the whereabouts of the devil fruit.

Ancient islands are rare in the ocean, and they are home to many ancient creatures that were close to extinction hundreds of years ago.

The probability of finding an animal-type devil fruit in a place like this is very high, so Ross will not let it go if he encounters one.

"I have to find time to go to the navy to print a larger copy of the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia. As for Barrett, the Mythical Beast is probably the best."

Holding three freshly-made unknown devil fruits, Ross stood on an ancient island and murmured to himself:

"If it really doesn't work, the ancient species will do. We can't force it. I'll ask Barrett for his opinion when the time comes."

Barrett is the fighter that Rose is most optimistic about, and the only child he must adopt and train personally.

To put it bluntly, in Rose's imagination, he may treat Barrett even closer than his own son.

There is nothing else but strength and power.

On the sea, they are the unchanging pinnacle and guarantee.
