Chapter 306: Chapter 306 : Wano 16
The public execution of Orochi finally took place in the central square of the Flower Capital. People of Wano, secretly contacted and informed, gathered in large numbers to witness the event. The atmosphere was tense but filled with hope and anticipation.
Orochi, bound and kneeling, pleaded desperately for his life. "Please, spare me! I can change, I swear!" But his cries fell on deaf ears. The people of Wano had suffered too much under his rule.
Just as the execution was about to proceed, a commotion erupted in the crowd. Orochi's loyalists, realizing the Orochi in the castle was a fake, launched a desperate attempt to save him.
However, Kirito had anticipated this move. Hidden in the shadows, he quickly and efficiently took down the attackers before they could cause any real disruption. The people only saw the loyalists fall, but where confused how.
There was another figure hidden in all this crowd who saw this and suddenly her eyes narrowed. But even she couldn't see everything what happened at that speed.
It was just like a 'Flash'
With the threat neutralized, Momonosuke stepped forward, holding the executioner's blade. His hands trembled, but his resolve was firm.
"I am Kozuki Momonosuke, son of Kozuki Oden and the future shogun of Wano." He declared as everyone shouted and cheered.
"For Wano," he whispered, and with a swift motion, he executed Orochi. The tyrant's head fell, and the crowd erupted into cheers. For the first time in years, they felt the possibility of freedom.
But the celebration was short-lived. A sense of dread loomed over the crowd as two massive figures appeared. Big Mom and Kaido had arrived, their presence alone causing panic and chaos. The crowd began to scatter, screaming in terror.
Big Mom's booming voice echoed across the square. "STARW HAT? Come out!"
Kaido transformed into his dragon form, his eyes burning with fury. "Come you punk, where is Queen!"
As the two titans prepared to attack, Kirito's sharp eyes caught sight of a familiar figure with red hair in the chaos.
"What the hell is Big Mom doing here ?" Kirito almost cursed after seeing that.
"Luffy you idiot, the fuck you did in cake island." Kirito wanted to shout but right now wasn't the time.
It's strange out under all this chaos, the moment he saw that figure, he found his serenity.
It was a figure of a girl, wearing red clothes with red hair and violet eyes, trying to save Hiyori from the ensuing pandemonium.
Kirito had no idea why or what but he just kept on staring as if time slow down for him. It was the exact thing he was here for.
"Under all that chaos as people ran around Kirito just stood still to observe the person in front of him.
But Kaido's fire breath was aimed directly at her. More like at that directly but she was under the range of that attack.
Kirito's sense tingles like no other. Making all of them stand up as his calm state turns upside down.
Seeing so many people in Kaido's line of sight, Kirito gritted his teeth and golden light appeared around him.
This was the power which he hardly used after coming here. But now he finally has to.
Without hesitation, Kirito dashed out of the shadows as his entire body was covered with an ethereal golden light, making him really look like a golden flash.
His heart pounding. As Kaido's fiery attack closed, he himself burst out with unimaginable power, Kirito appeared in a flash, grabbing her just in time. But there were more people where he just couldn't leave them all behind. So instead of teleporting from there.
He let all that power in his body to released.
The entire Flower Captial suddenly was drained in a golden light as Kaido's fire was overshadowed by the golden light and the figure appeared in it.
Soon towering tails appear in the middle of the flower capital, the golden tails enlighten the entire capital as a giant fox standing were come to life.
This was Kirito using his Nine Tail mode in KCM 2.

Asuna also considers herself a goner but then suddenly she found herself in an embrace so much longed for, It almost felt like a life time.
Even without seeing the person's face, or sensing his chakra, she could tell who this person was.
"Kirito..."
Kirito smiled, still holding her. "Next time, please don't come to see me off."
This just made her pause on her pace a beautiful smile appear on her face.
"She was currently inside Kurama body made out of chakra while it was shielding all those other people behind it from Kaido's attack.
Everyone seeing tis was dumbfounded. Even Kaido and big mom.
All they could see a giant golden 9 tail fox in front of them.
