With a single Meteorite strike, the mysterious Great Swordsman severed the meteorite in two, his eyes narrowed, and he raised his longsword high, causing a silent storm of sword energy to rise around him.

A deadly threat; everyone within a ten-thousand-meter radius was terrified and involuntarily retreated.

The fractured sky began to heal, and then began to rotate like a hole.

Sword energy surged forth, and a beam of white light connected the sky, illuminating the entire world.

Justice Coat fluttered, Fujitora's hair stood on end, and he opened his eyes, though they were mostly white.

"Boom boom"

A purple halo appeared, rippling across the surface. The surrounding crust trembled, and hills crumbled from the ground. The sword in Fujitora's hand began to vibrate and hum.

Facing the mysterious Great Swordsman, even Fujitora, as Admiral, was giving it his all and dared not slacken in the slightest.

Ripples spread from the two of them, sending sand and stones flying.

On one side, sword energy raged, resembling a sword mound; on the other, a purple halo, as heavy as a mountain.

"The Secret Technique of Iaido: The Divine Sword"

With a subtle shift in his eyes, the mysterious Great Swordsman gripped his longsword and gently swung it down at Fujitora.

"Bass"

A purple ring appeared, followed by seven more, all compressed onto Fujitora's sword.

As it plummeted down, the earth was torn apart, and a white light soared into the clouds, covering everything. Fujitora roared and swung his Cane Sword fiercely.

"Maximum Gravity Repulsion."

The mountains collapsed and the earth cracked, the two collided, and the entire square began to split apart, with terrifying cracks spreading out, and the surrounding mountains creating extreme destruction.

An endless white light forcefully tore through the Marine Headquarters, finally colliding with Fujitora's seven purple halos.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

The sight of mountains being moved and seas being filled caused all the swordsmen present to grip their swords tightly, their expressions filled with horror; for they felt their swords were about to slip out of their control.

The earth was blinded, and only the endless purple-white color remained at its very center.

"Gulp"

For a long time, both Marineford and the outside world were watching the center intently, swallowing hard.

A fierce wind swept through, and as the dust settled, a desolate mountain stood at the very center, with a bottomless Abyss stretching out before Fujitora, its sword energy raging.

Fujitora remained in the same position, making it impossible to discern the situation.

Opposite them, the longsword in the hands of the mysterious Great Swordsman began to shatter layer by layer, finally turning into fragments that fell to the ground.

A trickle of blood appeared from beneath the mask.

"Ordinary sword."

As a member of the Shichibukai, Mihawk suppressed his urge to attack, frowning as he looked at the broken sword of the mysterious Great Swordsman.

"Puff"

Suddenly, Fujitora swayed, then Backslide two steps, spitting out blood.

"If you had a fine sword, you might be even more feared."

A heavy feeling settled in his chest as Fujitora stared wide-eyed at the mysterious Great Swordsman.

"A sword?"

As if inquiring, or perhaps mocking, the mysterious Great Swordsman raised his right hand, and all the longswords lying on the ground seemed to come alive, shooting straight into the air and pointing directly at Fujitora.

"My weapon."

"My sword is out of control."

All around, some Revolutionary Army and naval personnel gripped their swords tightly, their eyes filled with fear as they stared at the mysterious Great Swordsman who seemed to be the master of the sword.

"Sword Domain"

Unable to remain calm any longer, Mihawk stared intently at the mysterious Great Swordsman from the high platform, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

"A sword? Whether one has one or not is just a matter of opinion."

With a gentle flick of his right hand, Man's longsword ripped through eardrums and swept towards Fujitora.

"Zero-Gravity Control"

The purple halo struck, shaking the entire earth, and countless pebbles and weapons shot into the air, colliding with the rain of swords.

"Gravity Blade - Fierce Tiger"

Transforming into Inazuma, he charged forward, his sword wielding what seemed like the force of ten thousand tons; Fujitora launched the first attack.

The sword energy was released and then materialized, revealing a transparent longsword in the empty right hand of the mysterious Great Swordsman.

Sparks flew as the mysterious Great Swordsman's feet sank deep into the ground, enduring unimaginable pressure.

Stunned, those watching the battle remained speechless for a long time.

"That's terrifying!"

On the edge of the world, Ryokugyu watched the mysterious Great Swordsman suppressing Fujitora and sighed repeatedly.

Across from him, Heracles, wearing a mask, withdrew his gaze and tensed up.

"Your name is Heracles, right?"

Abyss aura emanated from the Ryokugyu, and cracks began to appear in the ground beneath its feet.

"Call out"

Like a prehistoric beast, Ryokugyu appeared beside Helix, and his punch shook the earth.

Clenching his fist, Heracles unleashed a terrifying Armament Haki, clashing with the opponent's attack.

A terrifying explosion occurred, and a circular shockwave ripped up the ground.

With a grin, Ryokugyu swept his leg out, creating a sonic boom.

Looking down, Heracles vanished from the spot in a blur.

Retracting his foot, Ryokugyu watched Heracles gradually change, his expression slowly becoming serious.

Its limbs are reddish-brown, its body is covered with thick armor, and four hairy claws grow from its waist.

A pair of trembling, transparent wings, their trajectory barely discernible, emitted a soft buzzing sound.

"Zoan?"

Looking at the bizarre Heracles, Ryokugyu became increasingly alarmed, because it resembled a special species of Zoan: Insect-type.

"Swish"

Without a sound, Ryokugyu saw the other person appear in front of him in the blink of an eye.

A fluffy hook claw, with a steel needle gleaming coldly, pierced through.

Most importantly, the opponent has six arms, and is extremely fast. Moreover, judging from the hard shell covering its body, it's obvious that it has extremely high defense.

The powerful collision left Ryokugyu wide-eyed in disbelief, as his opponent's strength had increased at least tenfold in an instant.

What does this mean?

It transformed into a streak of light and crashed to the ground, leaving Ryokugyu lying amidst the ruins, his expression grim.

Speed, strength, and all physical attributes have been improved, and not just by one or two times, but by ten times or even more.

With a flap of its thin wings, Heracles appeared before Ryokugyu and launched an attack.

With his arms crossed in front of him, Ryokugyu felt the monstrous power and sank his feet deep into the ground, constantly moving backward.

With a forced twist of his body, Ryokugyu did a backflip, and before he could even catch his breath Heracles appeared beside him.

His breathing quickened, and in Ryokugyu's eyes, Heracles' six claws slowly enlarged. With a deafening explosion, Ryokugyu was sent flying, spitting blood from his mouth.

Ryokugyu got up, looking disheveled, but his movements and breathing suggested he was perfectly fine.

Covered in a hard shell, Heracles' expression was obscured, but his eyes revealed that he had not let his guard down despite having the upper hand.

If any other strong person had taken those two punches from him, they would have either gotten up or coughed up a basin full of blood.

But this guy was different; he vomited blood, but his breathing and overall aura remained unchanged, which was truly terrifying.

Either Ryokugyu has extremely strong defense, or it has extremely strong regenerative abilities, or it has some special means to transfer its attack power.

Unlike human pupils that shift, Heracles looked at the dilapidated ground around him and had a guess in his mind.

With a flap of its thin wings, Heracles, determined to confirm its suspicions, launched another attack.

Every punch landed squarely; Ryokugyu didn't hold back and went straight for Heracles in a head-on clash.

"Boom boom boom"

With afterimages appearing one after another, Ryokugyu endured countless attacks, coughing up blood each time, then continuing to fight as if nothing had happened, practically an unkillable force.

The more Heracles; he had a feeling that this guy still had hidden power.
