Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 288

Im made his move.

She held a longsword and slashed at Ron from afar.

There was no sword energy, no sword pressure; it was as if there was nothing at all.

Ron vanished from the spot.

next second.

A perfectly smooth tangent appeared on the building behind where he had just been, slowly sliding down, and a straight crack ten thousand meters long appeared in the sky behind him.

It was as if an invisible line had just cut through everything, splitting everything in two wherever it passed.

"Your swordsmanship contains a trace of space, no, the power of spacetime..."

Ron, carrying the Blood Moon Blade, appeared to Im's side, his azure eyes fixed on her: "If you were to be struck by that sword, it would probably be very bad."

Im turned to look at him, a hint of surprise in his lifeless eyes, as if he hadn't expected him to dodge that strike.

"Have you lived too long, possessing power but not knowing how to use it?"

Ron reached out and shook her hand with his free left hand.

The power of the Ice Imperial Arms erupted.

Giant, incredibly sharp ice spikes appeared in the air around her and then pierced down at her simultaneously.

But before those hard, sharp ice spikes could even get close to her, they were twisted and shattered by an unusual force.

"Oh?"

Ron narrowed his eyes slightly.

Followed by.

He swung the Blood Blade Moon Sword.

A flash of crimson sword light disappeared in an instant.

In an instant, countless bright red threads appeared before Im, like a woven blood-red net, slicing towards her relentlessly.

Im did not draw her sword; a sinister glint flashed in her eyes.

Then the space around her took on a bizarre, distorted shape, like swirling eddies underwater.

The crimson net formed from sword energy fell into it, directly following the spatial vortex-like trajectory, and entered the boundless void.

I couldn't touch her at all.

Seeing this, Ron gradually became certain of his guess about her power.

It's highly likely that it's a Devil Fruit power related to the 'twisting' ability!

Ron tried to glimpse a corner of the future using his Observation Haki, but found that the future was blurry and unclear, and even with his Observation Haki at level 8, he could not see it clearly.

Im raised his free left hand and slapped it towards Ron from a distance.

The air in front of Ron was like glass, shattering layer by layer in his direction in the face of that terrifying, distorting force.

Ron sensed danger, activated his level 5 Ultimate Power, and swung his sword.

A thick, crimson slash, imbued with the power of a level 9 Ryuo Haki, spread outwards in a ring from Ron's body, colliding with the twisting force.

Two powerful forces collided.

The world fell silent for a moment.

Then a terrifying force erupted with a deafening roar!

Rumble!

A terrifying impact swept in all directions!

The ground between the two gradually sank, cracked, and scattered rocks before turning to ashes.

After those two forces collided.

The ground between the two eventually disappeared, forming a bottomless canyon that separated them.

The two men, one holding a long sword and the other a blood-stained knife, stood on opposite sides.

A massive crack stretching tens of thousands of meters appeared in the sky between the two, and golden and blood-red lightning, generated by the collision of their powerful Conqueror's Haki, flickered and intertwined within it.

The scene was extremely breathtaking.

“You… are not of that race, but… you are also dangerous, and… we need to… eliminate you.”

Im's empty eyes were fixed on Ron as he raised his longsword.

Her voice was young, yet it carried an ancient quality.

Having lived in the world for over eight hundred years, even if the physical body is not dead, the thoughts and soul have long since decayed.

All one can remember is the purpose of one's existence.

Eradicate that race's existence, eliminate all dangers threatening the World Government.

249, The Sword That Splits the Red Earth (Two-in-One)

Im's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

The next second, he appeared in front of Ron, raised his hand, and cleaved Ron away with a single sword strike.

"Spatial teleportation? No, even spatial teleportation leaves traces; it's impossible for it to completely escape my eyes."

Ron, his chest splattered with blood, flew backward through the air, his azure eyes fixed on Im, who had just stood where he had been.

A bold guess popped into Ron's mind.

"I'm afraid... she just distorted time."

She distorted and folded the time it took her to arrive in front of Ron, and what she presented to him was the image of her appearing in front of him in an instant.

This is probably the most reasonable explanation.

Otherwise, with his Transparent World and Observation Haki activated, plus his Tenseigan, Ron would absolutely not have been able to miss the slightest trace!

Ron, who was flying backwards through the air, landed on the ground with his feet, leaving a long trail. Drops of blood dripped from his chest, but he didn't care. His azure eyes were fixed on Im in the distance.

"It can distort space and even distort time... That's a truly monstrous ability."

no doubt.

This is a state that can only be reached when the fruit awakens.

Im gazed at Ron, whose chest wound was healing at a visible speed, not far away, a hint of doubt flashing in his lifeless eyes.

Is this the kind of physical body a human being should have?

She had intended to cut him in two with that sword strike.

However, his physical resilience exceeded expectations.

In addition, he reacted in time and pulled back to create distance.

So her sword only left a wound on his chest and did not cut into his internal organs.

But that was by no means a minor injury.

How could a human body recover and heal so quickly?

Even Zoan-type awakenings probably wouldn't reach such a monstrous level.

indeed so.

Even Zoan-type Mythical Zoan users who have awakened their Devil Fruits do not possess such terrifying self-healing power (except for the Phoenix), but those with Kaido's immortality can achieve this level.

With his current health and vitality exceeding 5 points, coupled with Ron's perfect fusion with the Sage Body, in terms of vitality alone, he can completely rival Kaido's immortality!

Now, 15 seconds after being slashed.

Ron stood on the shattered ground, wearing an open long black coat, his long black hair flowing in the wind behind his head, each strand strong and resilient. His shirt was open at the chest because of the sword, revealing perfectly proportioned chest and abdominal muscles. The terrifying and hideous sword wound had completely healed, without even a scar, leaving only some bloodstains.

He held the Blood Blade in his right hand and smiled at Im:

"How many more times can you use an attack like that?"

Im did not speak.

Ron, whose body was radiating a blood-red aura, vanished from his spot in a flash without warning.

Im also disappeared at the same time.

next second.

The two appeared in the air at the same time, their longswords and blood-red blades, imbued with terrifying and domineering aura, slashing at each other.

Before the longsword and the blood-red blade even clashed, their domineering auras collided first.

boom!

A deafening explosion of air pressure.

The air within a radius of several hundred meters between the two people shattered like glass.

Countless crimson and blood-red lightning bolts swirled around the two, clashing and intersecting!
