The air warped, and invisible gravity surged sideways in an instant.
"What?!"
Caught completely off guard by the crushing blow, he felt an immense weight erupt against him.
Donquixote Doflamingo's expression changed abruptly. The tremendous force of the slash sent him flying into the distant woods, kicking up clouds of dust.
"Gravity?"
River chuckled softly.
"Indeed. I ate the Gravity-Gravity Fruit and became a Gravity Man."
Fujitora spoke in a low voice, standing before River with his sword in hand.
"Your Majesty, would you like to test my strength personally?"
River turned to glance at Donquixote Doflamingo, who was rising from the dust in the distance with a livid expression, then grinned.

Whoosh!
A breeze swept past, and Fujitora's sword was already in front of River, cutting straight down in a clean, decisive stroke.
Vmmm!
Gravity warped the space around them and enveloped River.

But a moment later, he froze, then breathed a sigh of relief.
River stood there without moving a single step. He merely extended his hand and firmly stopped the immensely heavy blade before him.
Vmmm! Vmmm! Vmmm!
Fujitora's expression grew grave.
Although he was blind, his perception was all the sharper. He could clearly perceive that his opponent had caught the slash
