A Single Slash, Revered as a God

Faced with such a terrifying tsunami, Roya's expression did not change.

It was as though the wave before him was not worth his attention.

Kizaru, Akainu, and the CP9 agents had already used Geppo to flee toward Marineford.

Only Kalifa had quietly fallen behind, concealing herself.

From within the crowd, she watched Zero's back.

She did not know why, but as time passed, she grew ever more convinced that Zero and Roya were the same person.

In a way, it was a woman's intuition.

Roya stood hundreds of meters in the air.

He looked down at the tsunami before him.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and his eyes brimmed with unprecedented confidence!

Roya raised Ryujin Jakka high.

His aura steadily grew!

Supreme Great Swordsman Peak Stage!

Peak Armament Haki wrapped around his blade!

Eight Gates Formation: Gate of Death, open!

Then Roya murmured, "All things in creation, turn to ash. Ryujin Jakka!"

As his words fell, Ryujin Jakka erupted with a brilliant light that reached the heavens.

Flames curled upward.

They coiled around Ryujin Jakka.

Spiritual Pressure like Conqueror's Haki burst forth in full!

His aura surged skyward.

He was like a sharp sword on the verge of being drawn.

Thunder rolled across the highest heavens.

At that moment, a Lightning Dragon roared down!

A pillar of lightning as thick as a bead struck Ryujin Jakka in an instant.

Lightning and fire merged.

Roya waited no longer.

He swung his sword!

A simple stroke, without the slightest flourish!

Yet the Sword Energy slash he unleashed

stretched over ten thousand meters, blotting out the sky!

Everywhere the eye could see, there was Sword Energy!

Its sheer length was beyond anything seen before!

Within the interwoven lightning and fire lay the sword intent of the Supreme Great Swordsman Peak Stage!
