Chapter 319: Sulong Diddy Vs Awakened Kaido
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
As I stared at Kaido's new form that simply radiated power and danger like never before, I couldn't help but hysterically laugh in joy; this was the kind of opponent I wished to fight against; this was what I lived for, and it filled with me with such ecstasy that sex could never.
I couldn't even correctly stand up as I collapsed onto the ground, holding my stomach and roaring with laughter. It seemed my joy was somewhat contagious as Kaido himself started to laugh as well.
"WORORORORO!!" Stated Kaido in a deeper, more profound voice than before as his laughter was heard all throughout Wano while it even shook the skull they were standing on.
After what felt like several minutes of non-stop laughter, I finally managed to calm myself as I slowly stood up with the help of my bo-staff while looking at Kaido, who was using his claws to wipe his tears.
"Wororo, sorry for the long wait; I nearly lost myself while gaining control of my awakening." Stated Kaido with a ferocious smile while sounding slightly more sophisticated than before, though it wasn't something Diddy bothered to even notice.
"Hehe, no need; if I knew this was what you had in store for me, I would've waited as long as needed." Replied Diddy with a feral grin as he hungrily licked his lips while gazing at Kaido, his body trembling in pure excitement.
"So, how do you feel? Stronger? Smarter? Faster?" Asked Diddy curiously as he twirled Naga-sa in his hand before resting it on his shoulder while gazing at Kaido, who clenched his fist, causing the ground to faintly tremble from his sheer strength.
"Wororo, all the above, and then some; I can barely control the power at my disposal right now." Replied Kaido calmly with a smile as he repeatedly closed and opened his fist, only to glance at Diddy, who chaotically chuckled.
"Hehe, don't worry, you won't need to control yourself. C'mon, now get your free hit in before we start fighting again; I don't want to have cheated you." Remarked Diddy with a smirk as he locked eyes with Kaido, who loudly laughed while adorning a ferocious smile as he lifted his Kanabo into the air.
"Don't Die!" Yelled Kaido with a grin as he tightly clenched his kanabo and without hesitation, he lunged towards Diddy with immense speed, moving faster than he'd ever moved.
Despite having already seen Kaido attacking a few seconds in advance, watching him blitz right toward me was a completely different feeling, and for the briefest of moments, I thought I smelled the scent of death; however, I couldn't question anything as Kaido's kanabo slammed against my stomach, causing me to violently cough blood as my vision went blank.

Snapping my eyes open, I looked around, only to see the night sky while everything that happened before I passed out flew through my mind; processing the series of events that led to my current situation, I grabbed my stomach in pain and leaped out of the ocean.
"Ugh, f-fucking hell; if I hadn't weakened his armament haki in time, I doubt I would've awoken this quickly." Muttered Diddy with a grin as he used geppo to fly toward Onigashima in the distance while glancing down at his stomach.
I don't know how long I've been unconscious, but seeing how Kaido was patiently waiting for me on the top of the skull while getting drunk, it hadn't been long, a few minutes at most, though despite it not being that long, I noticed that a lot of his wounds had healed, which nearly caused me to second guess myself.
'Ugh, I better heal a little as well.' Thought Diddy with furrowed brows as he gazed down at the ocean before suddenly thrusting Naga-sa into the sea while rapidly expanding it, piercing right through a large salmon.
Bringing the salmon out of the ocean, I increased my metabolism to the limit as I devoured the salmon that was easily the size of a small ship; I obviously couldn't finish the salmon, but thanks to my greatly heightened metabolism as I body healed itself at a much quicker pace than normal, I was burning a lot of energy, so by the time I reached the top of the skull, I had probably eaten roughly a tenth of the fish.
"Ahh, that was tasty; I'm not fully healed, but I'm much better than before." Muttered Diddy lightly as he patted his bulging stomach while tossing the salmon back into the ocean, only for a large shark to leap out of the water and swallow it whole.
When I arrived near Kaido, he downed what looked to be the twentieth cup of alcohol before finally using the Kanabo to stand up; compared to before, he was more than just a little tipsy, yet even so, he was giving me an even more dangerous feeling than previously, which only caused me to smile as my fur began to flutter within the wind.
"Hehe, ready for round two?" Asked Diddy with a feral smile as he swung his bo-staff, creating a powerful gust of wind that knocked everything away from him and Kaido while the clouds above violently danced with lightning.
"Wororo!!" Replied Kaido with mighty laughter as he gazed at Diddy with unconcealed excitement.
Laughing in kind, I happily embraced the savage power that coursed through my very being, causing me to rapidly grow in size while my fur got longer, more lustrous, and took on a silverish hue; my nails got bigger and sharper, looking more like claws than actual nails and the same could be said for my teeth, reaching such a large size that even when my mouth was closed my fangs stuck out. My yellowish eyes now shone with a deep reddish hue as I stared at Kaido, our haki violently clashing as we clenched our weapons.
"HAHAHAHAHA!!" "WORORORO!!" Yelled Diddy and Kaido, respectively, as they speedily lunged towards each other while leaving behind a trail of lightning and wisps of clouds.
"BEASTLY INCURSION!!" "RAIMEI HAKKE!!" Stated Diddy and Kaido, respectively, as their weapons violently clashed, their powerful haki and sheer might causing the skull to finally give way as it began to crumble underneath their incredible power while Onigashmia shook with such intensity it threatened to sink.
With Kaido having wings to fly, we no longer stayed fighting on the ground and flew through the air while constantly attacking each other, and although it took him a few moments to get used to fighting in the air, he quickly got used to it and began retaliating with powerful blows that made me spit blood every time his kanabo landed on my body; however, the same went for him as well. His insanely tough body made it hard for me to damage him, and it forced me to weaken his armament haki with my superior conqueror's haki, which allowed me to really injure him, though it did surprise me how much his defense had increased, thanks to his awakening; if it weren't for me being able to weaken his haki, I don't think I would've been able to do much damage to him at all.
Taking one of Kaido's attacks to the face, I used the momentum to spin my body around before violently kicking him with my haki and lighting-clad leg, sending him flying through the sky, though he quickly reoriented himself with a flap of his wings before slashing his kanabo at me, creating a massive blade of wind that headed right for me, causing me to respond in kind by powerfully swinging Naga-sa, canceling out each others attack while we speedily lunged for each other.
As we clashed for the umpteenth time, Kaido opened his mouth, preparing to blast me with his fire breath, prompting me to grin as I also opened my mouth, doing something I've never done before, condensing as much lightning as I possibly could in my throat, I violently released it towards Kaido, who did the same.
"Blast Breath!" "Beastly Roar!" Yelled Kaido and Diddy, respectively, as their fire and lightning breath attacks collided at point-blank range, creating a massive explosion that engulfed the two.
Swinging Naga-sa, blowing the smoke away, I was promptly slammed toward the ground by Kaido with such force I crashed straight into Onigashma, creating an incredibly deep well with my body. Once I finally stopped, I simply laughed in joy before leaping out of the crater and lunging back toward Kaido, ignoring everything that was happening down below, which would come to bite me in the ass later.
Coating Naga-sa in lightning, I violently swung it toward Kaido, launching a blade of sharp wind that arced with lightning, causing it to speedily hit him, leaving a diagonal gash on his chest, yet it hardly seemed to affect him given the ever-present smile on his face.
Following my attack, he rapidly flapped his wings, launching hundreds of sharp blades of the wing right for me, though I paid them no heed as they left gashes on my body; arriving before Kaido, I clenched my fist and punched him in the stomach, forcing him back while he spat out blood, causing me to smile, yet, he responded by punching me in the face.
"Hahahaha, this is amazing!" Stated Diddy with a massive, chaotic grin as he swung his bo-staff at Kaido, who did the same with his kanabo, the two hitting each other at the same, forcing them back before immediately lunging towards each other.
"Worororo!" Said Kaido with hearty laughter as he smiled with a bloody mouth while ferociously eyeing Diddy.
