One Piece: Invincible Starting From The Fruit Of Words-Chapter 181 The Dragon Capturing Hand Exploded, Kaido Was Seriously Injured And Dying!

Boom!

Kaido was struck again by gravity, his massive dragon body sinking deeper into the battlefield.

"Shatter!"

Boom!

"Explode!"

Boom!

"Fall!"

Rumble!

Under Lucifer's relentless assault, the skull dome's rock platform completely collapsed. Kaido's body, engulfed by gravity, plummeted into the inner palace of Onigashima. He pierced through layer after layer of ceilings until he finally crashed into the lowest chamber.

Boom!

A shockwave erupted, rippling through the entire island. The destructive aftermath of the battle drew the attention of every pirate on Onigashima.

"He won!"

Yamato, locked in battle with a seastone puppet, beamed with excitement. Her eyes sparkled as she looked toward Lucifer.

"He's so strong! Unbelievably strong! Are all outsiders this powerful?"

She clenched her fists in joy. "To think he could beat that old man like this!"

Katakuri, fighting nearby, sighed and shook his head, lines of exasperation forming on his face.

He muttered, "I can't tell if Yamato has a big heart or no brains. Her father just got beaten down like a stray dog, and here she is, cheering him on. Isn't that a bit... unfilial?"

He glanced at Yamato and added to himself, "Is this what father-daughter relationships in the Four Emperors' crews are like?"

Unwillingly, Katakuri's thoughts wandered to his own family, the Charlotte Clan. Compared to Yamato and Kaido's strained relationship, the dynamics in the Charlotte family seemed far worse.

"At least Kaido doesn't eat his own children," Katakuri thought grimly. "BIG MOM is a whole other story."

Shaking off his thoughts, he dodged a laser beam from a nearby seastone puppet and launched his ultimate move.

"Peerless Donut Barrage!"

Countless donuts materialized around Katakuri, suspended in midair. From these, pitch-black fists covered in high-density Armament Haki rained down like a torrential storm upon the seastone puppet.

The puppet, unable to evade, was struck repeatedly, each blow powerful enough to critically injure a Marine Vice Admiral. Under the relentless assault, the puppet was launched into the air before finally exploding into flames.

On another front, Weevil unleashed his devastating attack.

He brandished his enormous naginata with deadly precision, unleashing a 100-meter-long slash that tore through the seastone puppet in his path.

The puppet retaliated, firing laser beams from its eyes and mouth, but Weevil dodged with surprising agility. With one decisive slash, he severed the puppet's head, and its body crumbled into scrap metal with a deafening crash.

Meanwhile, Yamato also claimed victory against her opponent. Inheriting Kaido's bloodline, her combat strength was extraordinary. After freezing the puppet with her icy breath, she smashed it into shards with her kanabo.

With this, the three seastone puppets that had surrounded Kaido were completely destroyed.

Now, Kaido stood utterly alone.

Lucifer hovered above the battlefield, his demonic wings outstretched as he locked his gaze on the massive crater below. His presence was commanding, his power undeniable.

At the bottom of the pit, Kaido lay motionless, his condition uncertain—dead or alive.

Roar!

Suddenly, a deafening dragon's roar erupted, followed by a powerful gust of wind surging from the pit.

Shh! Shh! Shh!

The sound of countless sharp winds tearing through the air echoed as numerous dark shadows shot upward from the pit.

Lucifer's pupils contracted sharply as he saw the incoming objects.

"Seastone?!"

The countless sharp spears shooting out were unmistakably made of Seastone. Judging by their aura, they were forged from 100% pure Seastone!

"Kaido, you old fool, resorting to such petty tricks?"

Lucifer sneered mockingly as he raised his hand.

"Sage's Mahamudra!"

Rumble!

A colossal golden handprint materialized in the void, its surface instantly cloaked in Armament Haki. With a single commanding motion, the hand struck downward, swatting the Seastone spears aside like mere twigs.

Though Seastone could nullify Devil Fruit abilities, Lucifer's Word Spirit Fruit was an anomaly, transcending such limitations. While he couldn't erase the spears outright, deflecting them was child's play.

"Is that all you've got, Kaido?" Lucifer scoffed. "This just proves you're at your limit."

The overwhelming power Lucifer displayed left Kaido's desperate tricks futile.

In truth, throughout the battle, Lucifer had only utilized 30% of his strength. For him, this was little more than idle entertainment—a way to pass the time by toying with the Azure Dragon.

"ROAR!!!"

Kaido's thunderous roar resonated once more. His massive Azure Dragon form erupted from the pit, exuding an immense wave of Conqueror's Haki that spread like a storm.

"You damn brat, die!"

"Flaming Dragon Torch · Rising Dragon · Flame Eight Trigrams!"

Kaido's entire dragon body ignited in flames, twisting space itself as his attack surged forward. The ground beneath him melted into molten magma, and the air grew scorching hot before the strike even landed.

Kaido's entire head turned pitch black, enveloped in a crimson sheen—a fusion of Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.

Lucifer, watching calmly, chuckled. "A desperate final move, is it? Fine, I'll play along."

"Sky-Shaking Dragon Capture!"

Lucifer extended his hand, conjuring a gargantuan palm over a thousand meters wide. The void trembled as the hand coalesced, its surface infused with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, its density and strength far surpassing Kaido's.

The massive hand blocked the sunlight, casting the entire Onigashima into darkness.

All the surrounding pirates froze mid-battle, their weapons clattering to the ground as they looked up in horror.

"Ha... haha..."

A Beasts Pirates crew member laughed nervously, his face pale with despair.

"Are you kidding me?"

"This can't be real!"

"Is this the power of a god?!"

"His strength is on an entirely different level!"

Though the final clash had yet to conclude, every pirate from the Beasts Pirates was gripped with hopelessness. They all knew—this attack was Lucifer's, and it was nothing short of divine wrath.

No one believed Kaido could withstand it.

The Beasts Pirates' defeat was all but certain.

Boom!

Under the gaze of tens of thousands, the sky-covering hand slammed down onto Kaido, who was soaring upward with his final attack.

There wasn't even a moment of resistance—Kaido's attack was obliterated instantly. The colossal hand, three times larger than Kaido's dragon form, struck him as if swatting a mere fly.

Rumble!

Onigashima's skull-shaped fortress was shattered completely. The resulting shockwave tore through the island, scattering tens of thousands of pirates like leaves in a hurricane.

Countless screams and cries echoed as pirates were flung away like ants in a tsunami.

Onigashima itself was split apart, enormous cracks running through its terrain, ultimately splitting the island in two. The immense palm struck the ocean, generating a shockwave that extended thousands of meters into the depths of the sea.

Kaido's massive dragon body was hurled into the ocean depths, submerged beneath the crushing waves.

Submerged in the sea, the Azure Dragon Fruit's power was nullified, forcing Kaido back into his human form.

Kaido's eyes rolled back as his battered, twisted body floated lifelessly. Cracks and gashes covered him from head to toe, his bones and flesh indistinguishable. He was barely clinging to life, his aura so faint it was almost undetectable.

In his current state, Kaido—once feared as the "Strongest Creature in the World"—could not survive long beneath the waves.

But Lucifer wouldn't allow him the mercy of dying in the sea.

"Universal Pull!"

Hovering above, Lucifer extended his clawed hand, unleashing a gravitational force that tore through the ocean depths, locking onto Kaido.

Boom!

The sea exploded upward as Kaido's mangled body was dragged into the sky.

Every pirate on Onigashima watched in despair as Kaido was hoisted aloft.

The battle was over. Kaido had been defeated.

And with his defeat, the collapse of the Beasts Pirates was inevitable. The once-mighty crew would vanish from this world, erased by the sheer power of Lucifer.
