Super Card System - S.C.S Chapter 585: The Steel Body

S.C.S Chapter 585: The Steel Body

Hearing Kaido’s thunderous roar, even Whitebeard’s upturned crescent mustache twitched involuntarily.

How many years had it been? Whitebeard couldn’t remember clearly. He only knew that ever since Roger’s death, a madman named Kaido had suddenly appeared in the seas of the New World, replacing Roger as his new rival, constantly challenging him.

No one knew Kaido’s origins, only that he was mighty and a complete lunatic. Not only did he challenge Whitebeard to one-on-one fights, but he also sought out battles with the other Emperors, and even faced the Navy’s fleets alone.

Every time he appeared, it was always accompanied by battle, without exception.

Whitebeard couldn’t even remember how many times Kaido had come after him. Normally, when faced with such a persistent nuisance, he’d just kill him out of frustration. But what annoyed Whitebeard was that he couldn’t kill Kaido!

Not only could he not kill him, but the other Emperors couldn’t either, nor could the Navy!

Whitebeard had always thought that the title “Monster” suited Kaido much better…

To this day, this monster has become one of the Four Emperors, attracting countless pirates who wanted to join him. Despite having his own pirate crew, he still acted on his own whims, looking for fights all over the world.

Now, this troublesome guy had also arrived on the battlefield. Whitebeard didn’t even know what to say.

“Damn it, why is he here?!” Just like Whitebeard, Sengoku, Garp, and the three Navy Admirals were also extremely troubled. The Whitebeard Pirates alone were already giving the Navy a hard time, and now Kaido had appeared. Even though he was alone, no one doubted his destructive power.

Crocodile, Jinbe, and Ivankov were also well aware of Kaido’s reputation. The moment they saw him, cold sweat immediately broke out on their foreheads.

Marco and Ace were also deeply apprehensive. Being part of the Whitebeard Pirates, this wasn’t their first encounter with Kaido…

Headaches, fear, trouble, nuisance—these were the thoughts that filled everyone’s minds when Kaido appeared. Regardless of their strength, Kaido was probably the only person in the world capable of instilling such dread in everyone.

After his roar, Kaido’s massive body began to squat slowly. Then, he bent his knees and suddenly kicked off with a powerful thrust!

Boom! The bow of the large ship he was on was directly pressed into the sea by the tremendous force of his kick, causing it to sink instantly!

Kaido’s body soared into the air, leaping towards the battlefield.

“Get out of the way!!” Seeing the shadow in the sky, both pirates and marines in Kaido’s landing zone screamed, threw down their weapons, and scrambled to the sides.

Thud!!! With a loud crash, Kaido landed, sending dirt and ice shards flying in all directions. The immense impact created a large circular crater, and the ground nearby shook violently, making it difficult for anyone to stand.

Kaido slowly straightened up, his massive body blocking out the sunlight and casting a huge shadow on the ground.

As he rose, Kaido clenched his fists. His two muscular arms, adorned with spiked iron rings, bulged with veins that looked like thick, writhing worms. The cracking sound of his joints echoed, sending chills down the spines of those who heard it.

“Whitebeard, well done!” Kaido’s long, waist-length mustache quivered as he addressed Whitebeard from a distance. “Such a magnificent war, and you didn’t invite me!?”

No one responded to him. Even Whitebeard simply gripped his naginata tightly, watching him silently and warily.

There was nothing anyone could do; many were stunned. Seeing Kaido up close, the suffocating sense of oppression he exuded became even more intense. He felt like a ferocious beast from ancient times!

Even Ian couldn’t help but gulp. “Damn!” he cursed inwardly. Kaido’s body was even taller than Whitebeard’s, and his ferocious aura seemed to overshadow even the old man.

Ian carefully examined Kaido, noting that the long, curved horns on his head looked very similar to Little Oars Jr.’s horns. He had always thought Kaido’s tattoo on his left arm was of a dragon, but up close, he realized it was a depiction of a strange creature. It had the body of a dragon, but on the left forearm, the head was a skull instead of a dragon’s head.

What the hell does this mean!?

Ian couldn’t figure out what this tattoo represented or signified, but he knew that in this world, tattoos often carried specific meanings. They could represent a pirate crew’s emblem, a Devil Fruit ability, or even a nickname. These tattoos, whether explicit or subtle, always conveyed some information.

However, Ian couldn’t make sense of Kaido’s tattoo at all. The skull, in particular, appeared abruptly and didn’t match the dragon scale-like design at all.

So, Ian’s first thought was of one person, Jinbe!

Jinbe also had a tattoo on his chest, the symbol of the Sun Pirates. Ian remembered that the Sun Pirates’ tattoo was originally meant to cover the Celestial Dragons’ slave mark, the Hoof of the Soaring Dragon.

Could it be that the skull design on Kaido’s arm was also meant to cover up an original mark, just like Jinbe’s tattoo?

Ian could only speculate along these lines…

While Ian was lost in his thoughts, Kaido suddenly lost his temper because Whitebeard ignored him!

“Answer me!!!” Annoyed by the silence around him, he let out a furious roar and then pulled out a massive spiked club from behind his waist.

This club was enormous, even larger than the one Alvida wielded. After drawing his weapon, Kaido began attacking the surrounding people indiscriminately!

Bang! He swung the club horizontally, and the pirates to his right were unlucky enough to get hit. As the spiked club crashed into them, dozens of people simultaneously spat out blood, the sound of breaking bones echoed from their bodies, and they were sent flying.

But it wasn’t over. Kaido’s club swung back horizontally, this time hitting the navy soldiers on his left!

This guy seemed to have gone mad, attacking both pirates and navy personnel simultaneously. A large number of pirates and navy soldiers screamed in pain as they were sent flying in all directions by Kaido’s strikes.

In a short time, Kaido had inflicted massive casualties on both sides. Finally, someone couldn’t stand by any longer!

As Kaido’s spiked club swung towards the navy again, it was intercepted mid-swing. Kizaru suddenly appeared in its path, delivering a light-speed kick that struck Kaido’s club!

Boom! A massive fireball erupted at the point of contact! When the smoke cleared, Kizaru stood with his hands in his pockets, one leg bent and stepping on Kaido’s club, his face dark as he spoke, “Hey, hey, hey! What business do you have in this war, you out-of-place fool?”

“…Kizaru!” Kaido glanced at him and then, with another burst of strength, swung his spiked club again, aiming to strike Kizaru.

Seeing the deep black glow on the spiked club, Kizaru knew he couldn’t take it head-on and quickly flashed away from his spot.

“This guy is impossible to communicate with…” Aokiji witnessed the scene and, with a dark expression, suddenly leapt up. He landed above Kaido and pressed his palm onto Kaido’s head!

Crack, crack, crack! The power of ice activated, and Kaido’s entire body began to freeze rapidly from his head down, encasing him in ice.

However, before Aokiji could completely freeze him, the already frozen parts of Kaido’s body suddenly erupted with a cracking sound. Kaido broke free from the ice and reached out to grab Aokiji above him!

Aokiji quickly shot two ice spears at Kaido’s hand and leapt away from above Kaido’s head, causing Kaido’s grab to miss.

Observing this, Ian noticed that Aokiji’s ice spears shattered upon contact with Kaido’s hand, unable to penetrate his skin at all!

Initially thinking this was the power of Armament Haki, Ian then realized that Kaido’s hand was not covered in Haki at all…

“What is going on!?” Ian exclaimed in astonishment.

“The true Iron Body!” Ace, still with cold sweat on his forehead, answered in a low voice, “Kaido possesses the strongest physique in the world. Even oyaji said that not even Big Mom can match him…”
