|Midnight, Onigashima rooftop.|

“HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!!!!„

–Loud laughter filled the roof of Onigashima Fortress. The Straw Hat captain, the one who was one of the main initiators of this whole Raid on Onigashima, the one who fought against the great King of the Beasts, Kaido... At the moment he was laughing loudly, rolling on the ground with joy.

Moreover, his attire had somehow changed. All his clothes, except for his precious straw hat, of course, became cloudy white, white, shimmering smoke appeared around his body, and the irises of the eyes changed color to a bright crimson hue, like shimmering jewels in the sun. The earth itself, as if responding to the presence of the Pirate Captain, deformed under his hand.

Even the half-defeated Kaido couldn't help but stare at the spectacle. He would have laughed it off if it weren't for the fact that this pathetic pirate boy was actually on the verge of defeating him.

— I was sure I killed you... – Yonko spoke, wiping the blood with his palm.

Luffy just laughed in response. All the battle fury that had driven him up to this point seemed to evaporate, as did the mortal wounds inflicted on him in the fight. He laughed.
