Sword Saint's Enma Slash!

[Duang!!!]

The guandao, slashing vertically downwards, and the longsword, slashing horizontally upwards, collided fiercely across nearly ten meters of empty space.

Blinding white light and ominous purple light intertwined in streaks of flashing lightning.

The space between the blades was visibly distorted and blurred under the pressure of these two overwhelming forces.

Like a ball about to burst, it groaned in pain with a series of crackling sounds.

The trees beneath Imu's feet had already been shattered by the ripples of energy he unleashed.

But he did not fall; he remained firmly suspended in the air.

The scene below was even more horrific, with rings of Rainbow Eucalyptus snapping one by one in the blast wave.

The entire island's ground is sinking layer by layer, and countless cracks are spreading wildly.

The buildings in the nearby town collapsed one after another as the shaking was violent.

The Whitebeard and crossbones banner that had sheltered this place for nearly ten years was also buried among the vast ruins.

The animals on the island that were affected suffered even more; if they were instantly killed by the force of the energy, they were considered to have escaped too much pain.

But if one falls into a crack in the ground, they will truly die without a trace, suffering unbearable pain.

At the same time.

High above, the once tranquil, azure sky was now rife with turbulent activity.

The entire atmosphere seemed to be shaken up, with large amounts of white fog forming and converging before splitting into two halves, one on the left and one on the right.

It was like the sky had been ripped open!

And this is just the spectacular phenomenon that occurred when the two 'World's Strongest Man' clashed.

"So strong----"

Edward Newgate, leaping through the air, continuously applies downward pressure to Murakumogiri.

My heart was heavier than ever before.

Even though he was the one attacking, the webs between his hands were trembling and aching slightly.

"That's 'Enma'!"

Whitebeard's pupils suddenly contracted as he immediately recognized the longsword in Imu's hand, since it had previously been Kozuki Oden's sword.

But in that instant of distraction, the purple light from Hell swept across the void like a crescent moon in the blink of an eye, cutting through cracks and sending Murakumogiri flying.

[Bang!]

Edward Newgate landed awkwardly back in his previous position.

At this point, there were no trees standing on the ground anymore; everywhere was broken branches and wood, and the ground was riddled with jagged cracks.

"Snort----"

He suddenly groaned, and instinctively looked down, only to find a long, bloody gash on his chest.

Although the wound wasn't very deep, he was surprised that he had been injured so quickly.

"My Armament Haki couldn't stop his blade?"

In that instant, Edward Newgate suddenly remembered Kozuki Oden's special Armament Haki technique, which the latter had mentioned when he was still on his ship.

However, upon hearing that this was a secret technique passed down through generations of the Kozuki family, he didn't ask any further questions.

Because through sparring, he discovered that the Internal Destruction of Armament Haki and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's ability were similar in principle, and he didn't need this technique.

I never expected to run into another one.

It seems he not only obtained 'Enma' from Oden, but also learned that Haki technique.

In terms of banditry skills, this World Government is more like a One Piece than we One Piece!

Edward Newgate thought angrily.

[Click!]

Imu stood high above the void, his feet treading on Formless air, while sheathing his 'Enma' sword.

He crossed his empty arms over his chest and looked silently at Edward Newgate.

When he heard what the other person was thinking, he chuckled.

"That's why I said you, 'Whitebeard,' are nothing but a frog in a well. Fine, I'll show you what the realm of Sword Saint is all about, consider it a reward for you!"

The next moment, as the symphony reached its climax...

Behind Imu, transparent sword energies Coating in golden lightning appeared in the void.

Ten, fifty, one hundred, two hundred—their numbers kept increasing.

Moreover, it is no longer limited to the area behind, but spreads out to both sides.

In the blink of an eye, a circle centered on the 'Whitebeard' was formed.

A thousand lightning-fast sword energies all aimed their gleaming tips at the nearly seven-meter-tall, blond-haired, white-bearded giant wielding a knife!

This move wasn't actually from the original Imu, but rather something he created using the mindset of a transmigrator, based on the effects of the Sword Saint Bleach.

His only achievement so far is killing 'Pluton' Rayleigh.

What is Sword Saint?

Simply put, one of its abilities is that the blades and slashes it unleashes have an extremely strong penetrating effect, and are even more Internal Destruction than Armament Haki.

Diamond, dragon scales, and even Armament Haki can easily break through their defenses.

There's practically nothing that can't be cut down.

When it is combined with the Internal Destruction techniques of Armament Haki and the Coating techniques of Conqueror's Haki, it forms his current 'normal attack'.

Indestructible, penetrating all things, as long as it is within the 'Domain of God'.

Haki Sword that can attack from any angle and any direction with no blind spots.

This is the ultimate result of integrating Armament Haki, Observation Haki, Conqueror's Haki, and the realm of Sword Saint!

To counter this kind of attack, you'd better have a weapon that's at least Great Grade Sword, or fists that are as hard as Great Grade Sword.

Armament Haki and Observation Haki must be at an extremely high level, and Haki must be Emission throughout the entire process.

More importantly, it needs to have a wide-range and powerful attack capability.

Only in this way can we counterattack by attacking each other.

Because simple surface defense is completely ineffective.

I'm talking about characters like Big Mom and Kaido.

In contrast, Edward Newgate has everything.

If five 'Whitebeard' joined forces, they might actually be able to rival him.

[Whoosh whoosh whoosh.]

The situation, which was on the verge of erupting, changed as the first sword aura shot out from behind Imu.

An epic battle has begun, with countless sword energies transforming into golden lightning that pours down like a torrential downpour.

"Don't underestimate me, I'm Whitebeard!!"

Edward Newgate's eyes flashed with a blinding light, and a Tornado of killing intent, accompanied by Conqueror's Haki, Murakumogiri wildly swung the Murakumogiri in his hand amidst a furious roar.

Waves of compressed, vibrating white light swept across the entire area, and countless cracks spread through the surrounding air like a spider web.

All the lightning bolts that flew close were struck by the impact of the riot.

It slowed down as if it had fallen into an air swamp, and then shattered, canceling out the white light cracks.

Such dense and intense tremors unsurprisingly caused the entire Rainbow Island to shake violently.

More and larger fissures appeared, and broken trees, buildings, and animal carcasses sank into the bottomless darkness like mudslides.

The inhabitants of the large ship at sea watched in anguish as their homeland slowly died, Earth Split.

Imu, high above, looked down at the scene that resembled a natural disaster, his face filled with cold indifference and arrogance.

His eyes were fixed on the 'Whitebeard' man who was blocking most of the lightning sword energy while charging towards him!

He seemed completely unconcerned about the small bloody hole that the sword energy had pierced through his body.

He desperately wanted to defeat that bastard who held his sons' lives in his hands and wanted him to submit!

"Your current appearance makes me even more eager to see your prowess on the Myriad Worlds Battlefield, but first you need to experience a complete and utter defeat."

In Setsuna, 'Enma' was drawn again, flashing past Imu.

The next moment, a dark purple blade of light, hundreds of meters high, suddenly appeared out of thin air.

It was several times larger than the Flying Slash that Mihawk unleashed at Whitebeard during the Marineford War story.

It not only cleaved the entire ruined island in two, but the dazzling purple light also caused Edward Newgate's pupils to shrink to tiny slits.
