Even when faced with two of the Four Emperors alone, Marco was fearless, not even a flicker of change in his gaze: "Once I shake them off, we'll meet on Shampodi Archipelago..."
"I..."
Ace wanted to counter.
"Alright, I know you're strong."
Marco interrupted Ace, casually continuing, "Don't think that just because I say it, you can escape; if you want to escape, you'll need luck..."
Though Marco said this, he didn't believe it internally; he knew the chances of him and Ace escaping were high. Once a fight broke out, Jinbe would definitely come to support them, and the three of them could easily escape...
But...
The fighting power of the two Four Emperors wasn't that simple!
Moreover...
Hundred Beasts Kaido wasn't a fool.
A lion hunts a rabbit, exerting all its strength; that's Kaido's style.
This man was also well aware that Marco and Ace weren't his opponents, but if they attempted to flee, chasing them with Charlotte Lingling would be troublesome.
Luckily...
He still had a helper on Sky Island.
Kaido glanced around, suddenly shouting loudly: "Hey, Donflamingo, I remember your ability isn't bad, right?"
"Fufufufufu..."
Donflamingo quickly stepped out from behind a big tree, smiling at the corner of his mouth, but cold sweat on his forehead: "Need my help?"
"Don't let them escape."
Kaido didn't even look at Donflamingo, treating him like a subordinate, knowing what kind of person Donflamingo was: "I'll give you more share of the weapons exported from Wano Country, and I'll take your failed SMILE products too."
"Fufufufufu..."
Donflamingo chuckled sinisterly, slowly nodding, a web like a spider's appearing in his palm, yet he hesitated to act: "But I'm a bit worried this move might displease the Konoha Pirates..."
This hunting game...
Was being broadcast worldwide!
Once he used the String-String Fruit's move to seal off the entire Apayado, it might isolate the Radio Snail signals inside and outside...
The Konoha Pirates...
Weren't easy to provoke!
Of course.
Hundred Beasts Kaido wasn't easy to provoke either!
After Donflamingo finished speaking, he added: "However, I can help block them, it shouldn't be a problem..."
This kind of thing...
Donflamingo didn't want to get involved.
Unfortunately, Kaido was too close, Donflamingo really couldn't refuse.
"Hmph..."
Kaido was a bit dissatisfied but ultimately said nothing more.
These arrangements...
Should be enough for him to capture Fire Fist Ace and Marco!
"Now..."
"You can't escape."
Kaido directly charged towards Marco and Fire Fist Ace!
This terrifying Sea Emperor like a beast instantly unleashed a horrifying Supreme King Haki, charging like a mountain-like wild bull, leaving chaos in its wake!
"Trouble..."
Marco shook his head, quickly entered Phoenix form, flying upwards while calling to Fire Fist Ace: "Ace, let's go!"
"Alright!"
Fire Fist Ace gritted his teeth, a determination emerging in his heart, his body instantly turning into overwhelming flames rising into the air, fully activating the Flame-Flame Fruit's powers!
However, this young pirate didn't follow Marco's planned escape, instead turning into a wall of fire to block Hundred Beasts Kaido, a fiery arrow shot towards Charlotte Lingling in the air, another flame surged towards Donflamingo!
This fellow...
Wanted to sacrifice himself here to cover Marco's escape!
"Hey, Marco."
Fire Fist Ace's head appeared within the flames, his voice suddenly calming down: "I might not make it out; this isn't the sea, this is Sky Island, only you who can fly have a chance to escape..."
"Go back and tell everyone."
"Don't avenge me."
As Fire Fist Ace spoke, the Supreme King Haki on his body surged with flames, trying to resist Hundred Beasts Kaido's Supreme King Haki: "Just let me die here like the former second division commander Kozuki Oden..."
"Idiot..."
The Phoenix in the sky spread its wings.
This Phoenix's eyes watched the compressed flames below, gritting its teeth, returning to dive towards the battlefield!
To witness Ace's sacrifice...
I'd rather sacrifice myself here!
At least I have the confidence to stop Kaido and Charlotte Lingling from pursuing him!
