The clash of Conqueror's Haki unleashed an immense shockwave.
Wave after wave of impact swept up Friday's yellow sands.
Lin Ye stared directly at Golden Lion, whose face wore a wild grin.
"Kid, you're not weak!"
"If I were weak, the legendary Golden Lion wouldn't have come personally to invite me."
Lin Ye spoke calmly.
Seeing Lin Ye like this, Golden Lion grinned wider. Conqueror's Haki wrapped around both his hands as he threw a punch at Lin Ye.
Boom!
Lin Ye raised his left hand and slammed his fist into Golden Lion's incoming punch. Both were sent flying backward, carving two massive trenches through the desert.
"Lion's Thousand Slices Valley!"
Golden Lion's roar came from the other end of the trench. Countless slashes then swept across it, cutting toward Lin Ye.
Lin Ye charged through the slashes, swinging Enma and shattering the attacks rushing at him.
The aftermath of the shattered slashes raised towering waves of sand behind Lin Ye.
"Lion's Earth Roll!"
Golden Lion roared again. The countless grains of sand thrown up by the slashes seemed to be controlled by a giant hand, crashing down on Lin Ye like a real tidal wave.
The enormous wall of sand, hundreds of meters high, came rumbling down.
After a ringing cry of steel, a slash streaked with black lightning shot into the sky and vanished in an instant.
The crashing sand was cleaved apart in a single strike, and the massive sword scar spread toward Golden Lion, who controlled the sand.
"Good!"
The twin blades that had once been attached to Golden Lion's legs fell into his hands.
He swung both swords in rapid succession.
"Slash Wave!"
Powerful sword energy crashed toward Lin Ye's sword energy.
Whoosh!
The Slash Wave collided with Lin Ye's strike. The aftermath once again
