BlackStar_BH:
I started to arrange my thoughts for this novel well, and I decided to rewrite it towards a different path from the idea of the two souls, so from now on there will be one Kaido and he is the same Andrew who decided to become Kaido.
::::::
"Worororo~!"
An excited smile appeared on Kaido's face as he saw the rain of destructive arrows heading straight to turn him into a hedgehog.
This horrible sight and the dreadful sense of danger made Kaido's blood boil, his challenging spirit rekindled in this dangerous situation reminding him of how amazing the challenges awaiting him in this world were.
"Wororororo!!"
Kaido's body began to swell as he regained his familiar appearance from the Pirate World.
He had transformed into his ferocious hybrid form, but this time it wasn't an ordinary hybrid's form, rather it looked similar to the Lava Demon that he destroyed a moment ago.
His body turned reddish-yellow, fiery, and extremely scorching, what surrounded him now was a pure flame of the Azure Dragon ability, after he refined the fire seed, this ability evolved into an unparalleled high level, and he looked like a flame beast ready to burn everything in his path.
Even the space around him was starting to burn!
In this case, his raw strength had completely reached a new realm that no one in this world had reached... A realm that had only become a legend in this world.
Divine Origin Realm!
With a heat comparable to that of the core of the sun, even the Kanabo in his hand melted into liquid steel.
"Flaming Drum Dragon!!!"
Kaido screamed at the title of the devil fruit awakening ability that he could only achieve in his dragon form before, but after evolving in this world, he could achieve it even in his hybrid form.
This was his first awakening of the Devil Fruit, the Perfect Awakening of the Flame Spirit!
Which wasn't perfect in the past, and that's why he just lost to Joy Boy or else he wouldn't lose though.
Screee~~~!!!
The small phoenixes fell in the form of flame arrows onto the boundless barren plain that did not contain a single blade of grass, along with the scorching wind and sudden, loud cries of several phoenixes in the sky before falling onto Kaido's body to destroy him.
BOOOM!!!!
Confident of his overwhelming abilities in his current form, Kaido didn't bother avoiding the phoenix arrows and allowed them to directly hit his body.
A devastating explosion engulfed everything in sight. Flame attacking the flame, you could imagine what would happen.
If Kaido hadn't consumed the Fire Seed he might not have dared to defy the phoenix flames in such an outrageous manner, but now, these small phoenixes didn't even make him feel tickling.
Kaido looked at his hand and couldn't find the Kanabo who had been following for years, he frowned slightly, and then the magma in his hand formed into a new Kanabo, solid and burning.
Kaido waved with his new kanabo towards the phoenix arrows that were still falling on him, forming a powerful wind hurricane that drove all the phoenix arrows away.
They were all scattered in the barren plain far from Kaido.
Screee~~!!!
Screee~~!!!
Screee~~!!!
Screee~~!!!
After the first wave, another flood of phoenix arrows came with much greater intensity and power than the first wave. At this moment, the entire sky was filled with phoenix cries and phoenix shadows.
"HEHE~ Come to me with all your might again, Phoenix Spirit!"
Kaido in his current form was indescribably terrifying, even a level 1 Divine Origin Realm expert might have to run away with his tail between his legs if he saw him.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
...
..
After several successive waves, the two golden eyes once again opened within the pitch-black world. The voice of the phoenix spirit resounded in Kaido's mind.
"What the hell are you? Why do you have such a special physique that is unafraid of flames? If I am not mistaken. You have the primordial heretic god's aura residing inside your body!"
"In addition to this cheating. Do you have an enormous body strength that does not match your cultivation base…? A strong one like you is not supposed to exist in this world. What're you? Throughout the existence of the Phoenix, she has never seen an abnormal existence like you before…"
"I am Kaido, the King of Beasts!"
"... King of Beasts? What a great title… Only the Primordial Azure Dragon God had the honor of claiming that title in the past… I suppose... You mean, King of the mortal beasts with your words? Is not it ?"
With each passing moment, the Phoenix Spirit's curiosity about this strange man grew... She was unconvinced that he was the Heretic God's heir, as she had not sensed the pure Heretic God aura from him, but rather only an aura similar to that of the Heretic God.
"Shall we continue the trials, Phoenix Spirit?"
Kaido was very comfortable because he knows all the trials and how to get past them, so even though the third trial is a little complicated, the way to pass it is to do nothing.
This third trial: Corruption of the Heart's Flame, is a trial of the heart that's unrelated to flames. The advantages of your resistance to fire element are thus nullified, and your strong body is thus nullified, too. Because this third trial is the hardest trial to pass. In these countless years, the number of challengers who have passed the first two trials amounts to three hundred twenty-nine. But the ones who passed the third trial... It only amounts to seven people.
Kaido already knew all this so he didn't care.
The phoenix spirit sensed that this guy was not a good person, it was not just a feeling but an undoubted divine instinct. So she maintained her neutrality and didn't want to say more to help him get through the tribulation of the heart, in fact, she wanted him to lose and leave without obtaining her bloodline.
"Third trial: Corruption of the Heart's Flame."
The phoenix eyes disappeared and the black world began to distort once more. Kaido, who had recovered to his normal form, felt as if a storm had swept through his body and began to float in the distorted space.
Kaido closed his eyes and muttered, "Let me see what you'll show me... Phoenix Spirit. Is it something that will break my mental state? Heh~ There shouldn't be such a thing in my heart..."
Kaido's consciousness gradually faded into darkness, but soon recovered, when he opened his eyes again he heard an extremely familiar voice.
"No, No. Don't hit me again~~ Oyaji! I'll be an obedient girl! Sniff~!! Wwooo~~!!"
In front of him sat a little girl with white hair ending in green tufts and she had red horns.
Her large eyes were bulging and her body had purple marks as if she had just been hit hard.
He was in a position where his hand came close in a punch to the five-year-old.
His hand shook and stopped when was about to hit her.
Kaido's eyes trembled as he saw this scene again.
Yamato shrank into a ball ready to take another punch but was surprised to feel no pain.
She suddenly opened her closed eyes and looked up, she found her father's face looking at her with a strange expression.
Suddenly, she felt something dripping on her.
Was it raining?
No, of course, the sky was still blue.
The vision in her bulging eye was barely starting to clear, but she thought she was still not seeing properly.
Because in the hell this old bastard can cry without drinking the Sake!
Kaido quickly turned around and tried to wipe his eyes without allowing Yamato to see himself in this shaky emotional state.
But the moment he turned, the world around him changed again, and what appeared this time in his field of vision was a beautiful forties woman whom he knew very well.
"Andrew... Don't go with Kathleen... That slut woman doesn't love you."
"Don't you have eyes that could see? She doesn't love you and this is crystal clear from her actions!"
"Mom?"
Kaido looked at his arms, but what he found shocked him greatly, because the hands that appeared in his vision were his normal hands when Andrew was and had nothing to do with Kaido's body.
(Going to the cultivation world, obtaining Kaido's body... Was it all a dream? Did I just wake up?"
"Andrew...? Andrew... Are you hearing me?"
