In the spacious lounge of the Marine Headquarters, Onigumo's cold words echoed.
This time, no lieutenant general responded; instead, they all fell silent for a moment, their expressions revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
Indeed, to rise directly to the rank of lieutenant general in a battle whose authenticity was unknown, and to hold a special position above other lieutenant generals and even commanding generals, made the lieutenant generals present somewhat resentful.
"A draw with Hawk-Eye? Hey, who knows if that's true or not? You guys believe a newcomer could fight Hawk-Eye to a draw?!"
"If that guy dares to fight me, I'll make him understand that true swordsmanship isn't something you can acquire through deception and fraud!"
Onigumo wore a cold smile, and a faint Sword Intent emanated from his body, as if a cruel and bloody aura had Setsuna spread out.
A weak person standing in front of him might be intimidated by his Sword Intent.
However, everyone present was a Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, and almost none of them were weak. Onigumo's Sword Intent had no effect on them whatsoever.
However, at that moment, a faint voice came over, which suddenly made all the vice admirals present change their expressions!
"Oh? Just how skilled are you in swordsmanship?"
Uya's calm voice caused all the vice admirals present to suddenly change their expressions and turn their heads in unison.
Everyone immediately noticed Uya, who had appeared to the side at some unknown time. Their pupils almost all contracted sharply, each revealing a hint of horror. Some even instinctively tightened their grip on their weapons!
Vice Admiral Momonga was closest to Uya, and a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, his eyes revealing an almost incredulous expression.
The reason why all the lieutenant generals present looked so shocked was that none of them had figured out how Uya had appeared!
Or rather, no one knows how or when Uya got here.
It felt as if they had just arrived, yet also as if they had been there for a long time; this feeling startled all the lieutenant generals present.
Each of them had experienced countless battles, possessing not only extremely keen senses but also mastery of Observation Haki. Yet, none of them noticed Uya's appearance at all!
Doesn't this mean that if Uya had ambushed any of them just now, that person would likely already be a corpse!
"You..."
Onigumo's expression became extremely stiff, and there was an undisguised look of shock in his eyes.
He also failed to realize when Uya appeared!
"You just mentioned swordsmanship, so I wonder if you have time to spar?" Uya stood there calmly, looking at Vice Onigumo of the Marine Headquarters, his tone light and indifferent.
The words Onigumo had just said—that if he had the chance to spar with Uya, he would make Uya understand what true swordsmanship was—still seemed to echo here.
Upon hearing Uya's words, Onigumo's shock gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of annoyance.
Uya 'Uya ability to appear mysteriously and silently only demonstrates his superior concealment skills, not necessarily Uya great strength.
Once a direct confrontation begins, even the best stealth skills are completely useless.
With this thought in mind, Onigumo's heart gradually calmed down, and his expression turned sharp. He coldly snorted, "Very well! I've been wanting to challenge you to a match for a long time. I want to see if you're really as strong as others boast!"
Onigumo spoke in a cold voice, then drew his sword. A fierce Sword Intent suddenly rose up and pressed down in all directions.
This time, he fully unleashed his Sword Intent.
Sizzle!!
As the Sword Intent surged, even the wooden floor beneath Onigumo's feet seemed to develop tiny cracks due to this Sword Intent!
Sensing the Sword Intent of the Onigumo, a glint flashed in Uya's eyes. He reached out and grabbed at the air, and the crystal-clear Ame-no-Murakumo Sword appeared.
Buzz!!!
The next moment, a Sword Intent rose up from Uya's body. This Sword Intent was not strong, but it gave people the illusion that it was above everything. It was as if Uya in front of them was not a handsome young man of twenty years old, but an insurmountable giant mountain!
The Sword Intent swept across all directions, and in an Setsuna, it collided with the Sword Intent of the Onigumo. It was an invisible collision of auras, but it burst forth with tangible power!
"What... what kind of sword is this?!"
Almost all the vice admirals present at the Marine Headquarters stood up, and some even couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Almost all of them were powerful individuals, and all of them were skilled with swords. Even those who did not use swords were extremely familiar with swordsmanship. In addition, with their Observation Haki, they could clearly sense Uya's Sword Intent.
The question is about the sword, but it actually refers to the Sword Intent.
The term "Sword Intent " was used by Uya for convenience; in reality, in the eyes of swordsmen in this world, Sword Intent to the sword itself.
Or rather, for them, "sword" refers to all sword techniques, without distinctions like "Sword Pressure " or "Sword Radiance." These distinctions are merely terms Uya used to break down the different forms of sword techniques in a more detailed and clearer way.
These Marine Headquarters Vice Admirals could almost all sense the extreme domineering aura emanating from Uya's Sword Intent, as if he had stood high in the sky from the very beginning, looking down on everything!
Even these vice admirals from the Marine Headquarters had never seen a sword like this before!
Moreover, Uya's display of Sword Intent instantly told everyone that he was a master swordsman!
Regardless of whether Uya truly fought Hawk-Eye to a draw, the power he unleashed in that instant proved that Uya was no mere figurehead; his swordsmanship was genuine!
The next moment, Uya's Sword Intent collided with Onigumo's Sword Intent. The invisible Sword Intent intertwined, causing the air to suddenly hum.
All the lieutenant generals could no longer stand there and retreated to the sides, leaving only Uya and Onigumo in the arena.
The Sword Intent of the two men rose higher and higher, and with each collision, they exuded an even more fierce aura.
Almost the Setsuna their Sword Intent clashed, almost all the Marines in the Marine Headquarters with strong Observation Haki suddenly turned their heads and looked towards the direction of the Marine Headquarters lounge.
"That is..."
