章節 262: Chapter 265 : Reaction!!
"Ace, don't worry, your brother is already doing great!"
"He will definitely become a super strong man in the future, not to mention that this has not happened yet."
"Even if the future really happens, I will lead the entire Whitebeard Pirates to personally go to Kaido!"
"I will never let your brother get hurt in the slightest…"
Hearing this, Ace smiled bitterly and said nothing more.
Now he only hates his lack of strength.
If he appeared in Wano Country and saw Kaido defeat Luffy.
Then there is nothing he can do even with his own strength.
Because he clearly knew that he could not defeat Kaido.
Ace also vaguely made a decision in his heart.
He must become stronger as soon as possible!
Become stronger!
Only in this way can he better protect his brothers!
Otherwise, Luffy will soon catch up with him…
…
The Red-Haired Pirates!
"This kid Luffy... can do it!"
"It exceeded my expectations. He withstood Kaido's attacks several times before falling unconscious. This kid has great potential for growth!"
Shanks said with a flushed face while drinking the wine in his hand.
Before the battle started, he had already predicted Luffy's defeat.
It was the same as Whitebeard, Garp, and others guessed. After all, everyone is on the sea. The strongest creature is second to none.
Naturally, he knows more about Kaido's strength.
Although Luffy is strong, he is not in a head-to-head confrontation with Kaido. If he rushes forward to fight Kaido so recklessly, the only outcome he will face is defeat..
Failure is not a bad thing!
Maybe it is a good thing in some ways.
He only hopes that Luffy can grow after this failure.
Stop being so reckless, maybe he will become better after this failure. Powerful…
Revolutionary Army Headquarters
At the Revolutionary Army's base, the mood was grim. Everyone seemed to have a cloud over their faces, including Dragon, their leader.
"The Yonko are still the Yonko," he said, a note of resignation in his voice. "You can't just take them lightly..."
Dragon slowly shook his head as he walked into the base's main building. He knew what was coming on the sky screen, and he didn't want to watch it again—especially since it involved his son.
Seeing his son suffer was painful for him. He felt powerless because, even though he was a leader of the Revolutionary Army, he couldn't step in to help. It was something Luffy would have to face on his own.
Meanwhile, Sabo stood nearby, watching the same sky screen. He was thinking the same thing as Ace had. They both knew they had to get stronger. The only way to protect Luffy was to become more powerful themselves.
Otherwise, if they encountered a real threat, even if he and Luffy stood side by side, it wouldn't make a difference...
Water 7
"What?" Luffy's voice was filled with disbelief as he stared up at the sky screen. "I lost? Just like that?"
He couldn't wrap his head around the fact that he hadn't even lasted ten moves against Kaido before being knocked out.
Zoro, who was standing beside him, was equally stunned. He had seen the battle between Kaido and Luffy on the sky screen, and he hadn't been able to do anything to help.
He felt a deep sense of frustration at his own powerlessness.
It reminded him of the time he had his duel with Dracule Mihawk, hoping to have gotten strong enough over the years to challenge the Four Emperors head-on. But now, faced with the reality of Yonko's strength, he felt utterly powerless.
"Damn it!" he muttered, clenching his fists in anger.
Nami, seeing their crestfallen expressions, spoke up, trying to lighten the mood. "Actually, you did pretty well, considering these were the Yonko," she said, trying to be encouraging.
But Luffy and Zoro weren't convinced. They knew they had a long way to go if they were going to face the likes of Kaido and come out on top.
"Do you really think we can beat him on our first try? Don't overthink it!"
"We still have to get stronger, and fast…"
After hearing Nami's words, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates went silent. They had been through so many battles and adventures, thinking they had become strong enough.
But now it felt like it wasn't enough…
If they really wanted Luffy to become the Pirate King and fulfill their dreams, they would have to get even stronger.

Meanwhile, on Cake Island…
The sound of Big Mom's laughter echoed across the entire island. It was a cackle that vibrated through the air, fueled by her watching Luffy's recent struggle against Kaido.
"The Straw Hat boy finally hit a real wall, hahaha…"
For a long time, Luffy had caused havoc on Cake Island, turning everything upside down and making himself a thorn in Big Mom's side. He even became known as the Fifth Emperor of the Sea, something that infuriated her.
But now, seeing Luffy's defeat at Kaido's hands, Big Mom felt a wave of relief wash over her. Finally, someone had put him in his place.
"He got what he deserved," she thought, still chuckling to herself. But she wasn't satisfied. She was determined to find Luffy and teach him a lesson personally. Only then could she truly feel like she'd gotten her revenge.

On Onigashima, Kaido stood tall, watching the sky screen where Luffy had fallen.
"The Fifth Emperor of the Sea? What a joke," he sneered. "Straw Hat, you've got a long way to go before you understand your real place in this world."
Kaido's eyes were filled with disdain as he gazed up at Luffy. In his mind, Luffy's defeat was inevitable because he was facing him—the strongest of the Four Emperors.
"The sea only has room for four emperors. There can never be a fifth!"
To Kaido, this wasn't even a fair fight. It was inevitable that Luffy would lose, whether it was the first, second, or even the tenth time they battled. The result would always be the same.
"He'll lose every time," Kaido muttered confidently. "No doubt about it."
