Chapter 252 - Kaido Arrives

"Roger!!"

"It's... Roger!!"

"Roger, the one who completed the impossible journey and conquered the Grand Line!!"

The eyes of the whole world gathered here at this moment.

They look at the man wearing a red coat, his hands locked with handcuffs but still overflowing with spirit and showing no signs of prisoner consciousness.

Roger slowly walked out of the transport ship. His illness did not break his back. 

He walked forward slowly, with his posture upright and his coat fluttering backward in the breeze.

With a smile on his face, Roger's eyes lightly scanned the countless people in the square, as well as the countless surveillance Den Den Mushi in all directions…

"Hey... Do you want to take off my handcuffs? It's so uncomfortable."

Under the tight escort, he suddenly said something to a Marine holding a long sword beside him.

The tense Marine was startled by Roger's sudden voice, and with a swish sound, the weapon in his hand was pointed directly at Roger.

This action caused a chain reaction, and all the Marines escorting Roger took defensive actions lest he suddenly explode.

It can be seen what kind of pressure these Marines are under.

Any disturbance can make them extremely alert, and they are considered elites if their hearts are not broken.

"Damn it...."

On the high platform, Sengoku clenched his fists, looking extremely angry at Marine, who had made a fool of himself.

Being frightened by a prisoner, the Marine's reputation was gone.

In the big square, countless pirates watched them make a fool of themselves while laughing in their hearts. 

Sengoku also knew that this was not their fault; it was entirely the terrifying aura that Roger unconsciously exuded.

"Roger, be honest with me; a prisoner must have the consciousness of a prisoner!" Sengoku shouted angrily.

Roger, who was walking, paid no attention to the surrounding Marines. He walks towards the execution platform slowly while his smile gets brighter.

At this moment, Roger didn't seem to be rushing to the execution ground, but a lion was patrolling his territory, while the dense crowd seemed to be there to welcome him!!

The eyes of the whole world gathered here at this moment.

Whether it is the pirates in the New World, the top leaders of the World Government, or the ordinary people on the sea, they are all waiting for Roger to be executed.

What will these huge waves turn into?

The air was almost frozen, and everyone was waiting with bated breath. Even Doflamingo, Moria, Crocodile, and others were quiet.

An extremely oppressive air began to fill the air, and their eyes contained huge ambition as if they had seen an earth-shattering event erupting after Roger's death.

As he stepped onto the execution platform, Roger had a very relaxed expression on his face and a smile on his face, as if what he was about to face was not death.

At this moment, he vividly displayed the king's aura.

His mind became calmer, and he had already put his life and death aside. He had been executing this plan a few years ago and was about to succeed.

Roger finally stepped onto the execution platform in front of everyone, and then his eyes roamed at the dense crowd in the square below.

He saw a young and energetic face with ambition in his eyes.

His Observation Haki felt his old friend, Whitebeard, and his sons, as well as Shanks and Buggy, who were crying…

However, his own expression remained unchanged from beginning to end.

Suddenly, Roger looked up to the sky in the distance, and there was a familiar aura coming quickly!!

"Kaido? That bastard who always causes trouble… will come to see me off too?"

He grinned lightly, thinking that the Beasts Pirates would not come, but he didn't expect to see Kaido outside for the last time.

"Ouch!!"

The huge and majestic Dragon galloped over while letting a loud roar before stopping steadily above the square.

"?!!!"

"It's Azure Dragon, Kaido!"

"The vice-captain of the Beasts Pirates… Azure Dragon Kaido!"

"Oh my god, how could there be such a monster in the world..."

Kaido's high-profile appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Especially ordinary people who have never seen creatures that only exist in legends.

Many people looked up at the hovering Dragon and knelt down with pious expressions.

As for the pirates, they were all sweating profusely, and their eyes were filled with fear.

Only by experiencing the terrifying and boundless momentum in person can they realize how insignificant they are.

Including Doflamingo and Shanks, everyone looked at the Dragon above their heads in shock.

"Ku la la la la, that brat Kaido really loves to seek out meaningless limelight!"

On the edge of the island, Whitebeard, who was drinking wine while surrounded by his sons, grinned widely at Kaido's appearance.

Sengoku took a step forward, and Garp also looked seriously at Kaido.

"Kaido, what are you doing here?"

Sengoku asked calmly, but his eyes were full of alertness.

Kaido is not as powerful as Kaishu, but he's also a complete monster.

If he comes to save Roger, it will indeed be a very difficult problem for Marine.

Plus, there's also Whitebeard not far from the island!!

"Wo ro ro ro ro, you seem to be very unwelcome to me?"

Kaido smiled disdainfully and looked at the numerous heads below.

"I'll give you a meeting gift, Marine… And also a farewell to Roger!"

"What did you say?"

Sengoku was furious; his blood rushed to his head, and he was so angry that a few veins popped out of his forehead: "Don't even think about causing trouble...!!"

Kaido ignored Sengoku's anger and opened his mouth. 

At this moment, lightning keeps gathering and shrinking at his mouth.

"Boom!!"

A purple beam of light condensed into his mouth as he launched a brazen attack on the Marine below.

"Kaido... what are you planning to do?" Roger frowned at the execution platform, a little confused.

Logically speaking, Kaido should know his plan. After all, he went to Beasts Pirates before surrendering.

"Kaido, if you dare to act recklessly here today, you will be executed together with Roger!"

Garp, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked up. He was already in a bad mood and was provoked by Kaido; now, he wanted to vent his anger!

He kicked hard on the platform and appeared in mid-air in an instant, then his stretched-out fist was instantly covered by Armament Haki.

"Meteor Fist!!"

"Boom!!"

There was a terrifying loud explosion like a thunderbolt from the blue, and the furious Garp detonated the compressed lightning with one punch.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the fist swung out with terrifying force. 

It was so powerful that the remaining force actually formed a compressed air-shaped fist and hit Kaido directly.

Although they had been prepared for a long time, Roger's execution would definitely lead to something big, but no one could have imagined that Kaido would launch an attack on the group's strongest combatants of marines without saying a word.

"Beasts Pirates… are all a bunch of lunatics!" Doflamingo adjusted his red sunglasses.

"Garp… you became old; your fist doesn't have the same strength as before. Are you trying to tickle me now?"

Kaido looked contemptuous and shouted loudly. "Get out of here!!"

The sound wave rippled into the sky, and the sound wave produced by Kaido's extremely powerful body possessed a terrifying attack.

The sound wave and compressed air-shaped fist collide in mid-air…

"Boom!!"

The sonic attacks completely offset the compressed air-shaped fist.

There was extreme silence in the big square, and no one dared to breathe…
