While Uchiha Ryunen's absolute defense and relentless attacks were giving Borsalino a headache, things were different elsewhere.
The battle on Sakazuki's side was considerably fiercer.
Natsume was a genius among the Uchiha Clan's younger generation, and he had always been a staunch member of the Radical Faction.
Ever since he had begun following Uchiha Kazama, every battle he fought had been against top-tier opponents.
No matter what enemy he faced, his approach came down to one word-fight!
"Fire Release: Flying Dragon Blast Destruction!"
Uchiha Natsume unleashed an A-rank Fire Release technique in an instant.
A terrifying fire dragon lunged at Sakazuki.
"Is this your power?!"
"Power like this is nothing but a joke before me!"
Sakazuki ignored the fire dragon before him and charged straight into it.
He reached out with both hands and seized the dragon.
Then magma spread out, swiftly swallowing the fire dragon before him.
At the same time, streams of magma shot toward Uchiha Natsume.
Sakazuki and Uchiha Natsume had much the same temperament.
To them, once a battle began, there was no room for holding back.
Whoever stood before them, once that person became an opponent, they were someone to be killed.
Sakazuki had been like this even back when he was a captain in the West Blue.
An enemy deserved nothing less than annihilation at full strength!
And so, their battle grew ferocious.
Fortunately, Natsume had already mastered the nature transformation of fire chakra.
Combined with his tailed beast's chakra and special abilities, this allowed Natsume to become the White King and roam through the magma.
Aside from the explosive magma fists, Uchiha Natsume could ignore all the elemental transformations around him.
Once Sakazuki discovered this, he stopped using elemental attacks.
He instantly unleashed his Armament Haki and charged at Natsume.
Their fists collided.
