A navy officer rushed into the room.
"Your Majesty Commander!"
Several sword energies fell from the sky, destroying many buildings on the island!
Spandam's face turned pale.
"Sword energy?"
"Pirates have broken in?"
Where is Rob Lucci?
"Where are Kaku and Jabra?"
The navy hesitated for a moment.
"Several CP9 members have noticed fighting in the sky and have gone to the edge of the island to observe."
Spandam's eyes widened.
"They're all gone?"
"Who will protect me!"
"Call them back immediately!"
"If the enemy storms the Tower of Justice, who among you will be responsible!"
The edge of the island.
Rob Lucci stood atop the broken building, looking up at the sky.
Kaku stepped against the wall, unleashing his full Observation Haki.
Jabra, Blueno, Kumadori, and the Fukurou were scattered nearby.
While ordinary naval personnel couldn't see them, they could detect the two clashing auras high in the sky.
Kaku's expression was grave.
"It's too far."
"I can only sense two people."
Jabra stared at the sword mark on the sea that had yet to close.
"A single strike that deviates from the battlefield can cleave the sea in two."
Who exactly are those people fighting up there?
Lucci did not answer.
His Observation Haki could only barely pinpoint the location of the battlefield.
Whenever two auras collide, their perception is scattered by the aftershocks.
This level of combat is beyond their capabilities to intervene in.
High in the sky.
Shiki unleashed a series of slashes with both legs.
Dozens of sword energies crisscrossed, sealing off Uchiha Xin's body.
Uchiha Xin raised his hand and grabbed.
A soft sound echoed in the air.
Black Blade Yoru fell into his palm.
He swung his sword horizontally.
The black blade clashed with the golden sword energy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dozens of sword energies exploded in succession.
Shiki paused for the first time upon seeing the Black Blade Yoru.
He stared at the enormous Black Blade.
" Black Blade Yoru?"
" Hawk Eyes's knife is indeed in your hands."
"Rumor has it that you defeated Hawk Eyes and stole his Black Blade."
I didn't believe it at first.
Uchiha Xin gripped the hilt of the sword.
"Do you believe me now?"
Shiki lifted the Kogarashi.
"Whoever wields the sword doesn't determine who is the strongest swordsman."
Even if you wield the Black Blade Yoru, you might not be able to use it well!
Oto and Kogarashi both struck down at the same time.
Two sword energies crossed and came together.
Uchiha Xin stepped forward to meet him.
Black Blade Yoru swung upwards from below.
The three famous Famous Sword collided head-on in mid-air.
clang!
The piercing sound echoed through the sky.
Golden and black sword energy scattered in all directions.
Shiki used the Float-Float Fruit to change his position and instantly appeared next to Uchiha Xin.
Kogarashi pierced his back.
Uchiha Xin his sword in a backhand motion.
Black Blade Yoru accurately blocked the blade tip.
Shiki immediately changed tactics.
Oto slashed horizontally from the other side.
Uchiha Xin spun his blade, using the broad surface of the Black Blade to simultaneously press down on the two Famous Sword.
Use your arm to generate force.
Shiki was pushed backward and flew out.
He flipped in mid-air, his legs striking down in quick succession.
Uchiha Xin swung his Black Blade Yoru, and blocked all the attacks.
Each collision involved no unnecessary movements.
The strike, the parry, the counterattack—all were swift and decisive.
Shiki grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.
Uchiha Xin did not rely on the inherent hardness of the Black Blade Yoru to forcibly block his swordsmanship.
Every time the opponent made a move, he was able to cut off his attack route in advance.
That judgment and swordsmanship have reached the level of Great Swordsman.
When Uchiha Xin destroyed the 100,000- Fish-Man Pirates, he absorbed a large amount of swordsman's expertise.
After pushing his limits, his understanding of swordsmanship has far surpassed what it was before.
All those disparate experiences were organized and compiled.
The shortcomings have been corrected.
The techniques were preserved.
Now, as he wields the Black Blade Yoru again, his swordsmanship is no longer immature.
Shiki slashed down with his sword.
Uchiha Xin blocked with his sword.
The two men stared at each other across the blade.
Shiki spoke again.
"Kid, your swordsmanship, Haki, and physique are all quite good."
"I'm giving you one last chance."
"Join the Flying Pirates."
"Once I regain control of the seas, you will be second only to me!"
Uchiha Xin exerted force with his arm, directly blasting Oto and Kogarashi.
"Make me your subordinate?"
You don't deserve it.
Shiki retreated 100 meters.
The smile on his face vanished completely.
Two attempts to recruit him were already the maximum of patience he could offer.
Uchiha Xin repeatedly refused, even telling him to his face that he was not worthy.
Shiki is no longer retained.
A murderous intent erupted from him.
Armament Haki covered Oto and the Kogarashi.
Golden sword energy condensed on the surfaces of the two Famous Sword.
"I'm only willing to give you a way out because I value your strength."
"Since you insist on courting death, I'll kill you with my own hands!"
Shiki both legs out simultaneously.
"Lion - Thousand-Cut Valley!"
Several massive, golden crescent-shaped sword energies roared out!
Golden crescent-shaped sword energy filled the sky.
Each sword aura was hundreds of meters long.
The sword energies clashed and sealed off Uchiha Xin's surroundings.
The remaining clouds nearby were completely shredded.
The sea below was also torn apart by the wind pressure generated by the sword energy, and cracks spread into the distance.
Shiki hovered behind the sword energy.
"Hahahaha!"
"You brat!"
"When you were traversing the vast ocean, you were still nowhere to be found!"
"Just because you got a Black Blade, you really think you can outsmart me with swordsmanship?"
Uchiha Xin's expression was indifferent.
" Shiki, you're too arrogant."
He gripped the Black Blade Yoru with both hands.
The powers of the Dark-Dark Fruit and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit surged into the sword simultaneously.
Black Lightning traveled from the hilt all the way to the blade.
The electric arc did not produce thunder.
The light surrounding Black Blade Yoru was being continuously swallowed up.
A gravitational force then spread outwards.
The oncoming golden sword energy deviated, being pulled towards the blade.
Shiki's smile faltered for a moment.
He had never seen lightning like this before.
The Lightning Fruit contains not only the destructive power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, but also the unique devouring and gravitational pull of the Dark-Dark Fruit.
Two forces that should have been completely different were now merging together.
" Devil Fruit ability?"
"Aren't you a space-type ability user?"
Uchiha Xin did not answer.
He raised his Black Blade Yoru, and slashed forward.
" Thunder Dragon Slash!"
roar!
A deep, resonant dragon's roar emanated from the blade.
A dark sword aura shot into the sky.
After leaving Black Blade Yoru, the sword energy rapidly expanded, transforming in the blink of an eye into a Thunder Dragon several thousand meters long.
The Thunder Dragon was entirely black.
Purple-blue electric arcs moved between the scales.
The enormous dragon head opened, and dark gravity erupted from its mouth.
The surrounding clouds, air, and scattered sword energy were all forcibly pulled towards the dragon's mouth.
The overwhelming sword energy formed by Thousand-Cut Valley was the first to be affected.
The golden sword energy at the forefront collided with the Thunder Dragon.
boom!
The sword energy only lasted for a moment before being crushed by the Thunder Dragon's bite.
Hundreds of meters long crescent-shaped sword energies exploded one after another.
The Thunder Dragon did not slow down.
Black Lightning pierced the sky, and a massive body swept through the center of the sword energy.
The golden sword energy collapsed in swathes, like waves crashing against rocks.
The shattered sword energy did not spread outwards.
The internal power had just erupted when it was swallowed up by the darkness surrounding the Thunder Dragon.
In the blink of an eye, a gap was torn open in the offensive formed by Lion- Thousand-Cut Valley.
