Chapter 228: Kaido Runs Away

How could it be Garp? It simply shocked Karl for a whole year.

To deal with Kaido, did they need Garp? Wasn't this bullying an honest man?

As for why Kizaru didn't come, Karl didn't care much, because if that guy could come, he would have come long ago, and he wouldn't have had the chance to fight Kaido for so long.

He must have been dragged away to study some laser beam stuff.

Fortunately, Karl had intentionally reduced his contact with the Navy Science Unit, otherwise, he would have been dragged away to be studied too.

"Just now, I felt the clash of Conqueror's Haki from far away. That wouldn't be you, would it?"

Garp looked at Karl with a look of surprise. He knew Kaido had Conqueror's Haki, but Karl—this guy also had the aptitude of a king? That didn't seem very likely, right?

But in this G-10 base, besides Gion and Ain, only Karl was left. If it wasn't him, who else could it be?

"Cough, cough, you saw through it. I was provoked by Kaido and suddenly awakened it. Sigh~ it almost scared me to death."

Garp speechlessly knocked Karl on the head. This kid was getting the benefits and still acting coy. If it weren't for the fact that this kid knew Ace's secret, he would have given him two Fists of Love anyway.

"You kid! I can't be bothered to talk to you."

Garp stood up and walked toward Kaido and Akainu, who were fighting, while twisting his neck.

Kaido, who was having a great time fighting, suddenly felt a chill on his back, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared in his mind. He turned his head to look, and what came into view was Garp's huge black fist.

Bang~

Visibly, Kaido flew out a few teeth, and his whole body flew out directly, in so much pain that he was twitching on the ground.

Hiss~

Karl gasped. Garp's strength was truly terrifying; he could knock Kaido down with one punch! And he hadn't even given Garp a buff yet!

Fortunately, he hadn't sparred with Garp before, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Before Garp arrived, Kaido could still fight back and forth with Akainu, you punch me and I kick you. After Garp arrived, Kaido completely fell into a disadvantage, being double-teamed by Akainu and Garp.

One moment it was magma, the next it was a rock-hard fist. Karl frowned just watching it.

It had to be Kaido; if it were anyone else, they really wouldn't be able to withstand such torture.

"Enough! Who do you think I am! I am the Hundred Beasts Kaido!!!"

"Oaaahhhhh!!!!"

With a roar, Kaido transformed into an Azure Dragon and soared into the clouds, blocking the sun. What a blue beast.

"Wind Scythe!!!"

The wind and clouds changed color, and Kaido spat out countless wind blades from his mouth, like a continuous stream of flying slashes. This posture looked as if he wanted to destroy the entire G10.

Karl's expression changed, and he hurriedly pulled Ain to prepare to run. Garp on the side snorted lightly, left the ground with a bang, and stepped on the air with Moon Walk to rush into the sky.

Facing countless wind blades, he was not afraid at all, roaring as he threw out a Fist of Justice.

Crack, crack, crack~

Countless wind blades shattered, and Garp's fist wind actually gave Kaido a heavy blow to the head, causing him to wail.

Kaido looked at Garp unwillingly, turned his head, and left, not looking back no matter what.

Karl scratched his head. This... seemed a bit different from what he imagined. Logically speaking, shouldn't Kaido have been worn down a bit, and then transformed into his hybrid form to fight Garp for 300 rounds?

How did he just run away like that?

Kaido: I think you haven't been hammered by Garp, so you don't know how painful his fists are! If it were you, you'd run too!

"Karl, are you okay?" Ain pulled on Karl's upper body, checking for wounds.

"You know my ability. As long as I have a breath left, I can recover immediately!"

Ain pushed Karl angrily: "Stop bragging. Who was the one being beaten up by Kaido just now?"

"Hey, you can't just say things like that! What do you mean beaten up? I clearly slashed him hundreds of times, okay? It's just that this guy has strong recovery, and he healed as he fought."

Ain took a deep breath and said in a low mood: "This time, I couldn't help. I..."

Karl hugged Ain to comfort her: "It's okay. When I first saw Kaido, I was just like you, standing on the side watching the battle, so don't be discouraged. Work hard to become stronger!"

"Yeah! I definitely will. By the way, the aura you erupted just now... was that Conqueror's Haki?"

Karl scratched his head: "It should be."

Conqueror's Haki. Karl had awakened Conqueror's Haki, but she had only awakened Observation Haki. She felt the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger.

They were trainees from the same training camp. Karl was now a Vice Admiral, while she was only a Colonel, and that was relying on the credit she got from Karl. Otherwise, it would be hard to say.

These weren't the main points; the gap in strength between them was a chasm.

Although Karl didn't train his physique much every day, his Holy Light Fruit could slowly improve his physique, and the efficiency was higher than her daily training. How could she compare?

Compared to Karl, Ain felt she had fallen too far behind.

"Why did this Kaido run away? I thought I could have some fun! Really, hey, kid, I heard you fought Kaido for a day. Are you okay?"

Karl looked at Gion and said with a smile: "It's not that exaggerated. If it weren't for Sister Gion helping me, I wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"That's true, but you kid are progressing really fast. A year ago, you struggled to fight Weevil, and now you can trade blows with Kaido. No wonder Sengoku values you so much."

As they were talking, the surrounding air suddenly turned cold. It wasn't Aokiji who came; it was Akainu walking over.

Garp looked at Akainu and curled his lips, not wanting to talk to him.

"Since you're fine, I'm leaving. By the way, your talent is excellent, don't waste it."

Akainu looked at Karl and said this before turning and leaving, without taking a single cloud with him.

Karl wanted to say something but couldn't. He thought Akainu was truly swift and decisive.

After Akainu left, Garp walked over, put his hands on his hips, looked at the G-10 base that was almost a ruin, and shook his head.

"Karl, I have to go too."

Karl was stunned: "So fast? Why not sit for a while?"

"No, where do you have a place to sit here? It's not as good as my warship! By the way, Sengoku will probably look for you later. Just tell him I'm going to hunt down the Red-Haired Pirates, so I won't go for now."

"Oh, oh, oh! Vice Admiral Garp, take care!"

Garp waved his hand and left the G-10 base.

This sudden battle finally came to an end, but the cleanup work was the most troublesome.

Counting the wounded, applying for funds to repair the base, and so on—it was very troublesome.

"Sister Gion, I'm really sorry. You ran into this kind of thing as soon as you arrived."

Gion waved her hand: "It's okay. Who could have thought Kaido would attack the base? Since that's the case, I won't stay long. I'll come to see you again when I have time!"

"Goodbye Karl, goodbye Ain, keep it up!" Gion winked at Ain.

Ain blushed and waved: "Yeah, goodbye Sister Gion!" ===== CHAPTER 230 =====
