"Mr. Garp, it seems that time has left no trace on you."
Mihawk had no intention of backing down.
He is the world's strongest swordsman, and also a pilgrim who has comprehended a higher level of swordsmanship. He now symbolizes the pinnacle of swordsmanship in the Pirate World.
Originally, he would never have had such thoughts, only wanting to seek out master swordsmen to fight.
Like Whitebeard, the world's strongest, who possesses the power of the strongest Paramecia type, the Quake-Quake Fruit, even Mihawk could only admit defeat.
Because this was the limit of swordsmanship in the Pirate World.
Just as women cannot become the strongest swordsmen, it's like a rule of the world's operation.
No swordsman would ever feel that they could defeat all enemies with swordsmanship, so they only needed to be the strongest among swordsmen.
But now it's different.
It turns out... in some Otherworlds, truly skilled swordsmen can defeat all powerful enemies with overwhelming force.
Whether they are magic cultivators, body cultivators, strength cultivators, Buddhist cultivators, or demonic cultivators... in front of sword cultivators, they are all like paper.
You can't defeat a body cultivator?
That's not because of swordsmanship, but because you're not strong enough. As long as you're strong enough... one sword can break all spells!
A strong fighting spirit, intense to the extreme, rose from Mihawk.
"My name is Dracule Mihawk!"
"I will prove to this world the power of swordsmanship, not a power distinguished from Devil Fruit users and Haki practitioners... not the so-called strongest creature, strongest man, strongest Paramecia, strongest Zoan.
"But the strongest in the true sense!"
At this moment,
The sky was already filled with countless overlapping fist shadows, and Doflamingo retreated three paces.
Even Dragon, who possessed the bloodline of a wind dragon, was unwilling to directly face this attack.
Their keen combat awareness and biological instincts sensed the danger of this move.
"Mihawk, I always treated you as an ordinary pirate. It seems I was wrong!"
Garp's gaze was solemn.
From Mihawk, he smelled the same aura as Pirate King Roger, who had already died.
That was a sufficiently pure will.
Roger was the purest will of freedom in this sea area back then.
And Mihawk, before him, was a will originating from swordsmanship.
"Incredible!"
Along with Garp's praise,
All the fist shadows in the sky disappeared. More accurately, they converged onto the fist Garp was about to unleash.
"Come on!"
Mihawk discarded all flashy variations and techniques.
His entire body's battle intent and sword qi ascended to their peak, and he unleashed the strongest slash directly.
The slash was not as large as a mountain as before, nor did it carry a dazzling sharpness.
Instead, it was like a verdant crescent moon.
Azure Flame: Underworld Palace!
This was the name of this slash.
"Is Mihawk seeking death?"
Some pirates looked puzzled and confused.
Compared to the overwhelming momentum of the countless fist shadows unleashed by Navy Garp, this slash seemed like something even a novice swordsman could unleash, right?
It wasn't even as good as an "Arashi Rankyaku."
Even Zoro, who was fighting the Navy, found this scene a bit strange.
Only Revolutionary Army Leader and Doflamingo, who were closest, sensed that the sword qi contained power no weaker than Garp's iron fist.
Crack.
The sky cracked like a mirror.
The entire Death Island suddenly fell silent at this moment, as if everything had lost its sound.
Boom.
The sword qi and the fist collided.
A shockwave capable of overturning the sea spread from the center, and the ground was blown into deep pits by this air fluctuation, constantly spreading outwards.
Countless players suffered, like weeds struggling in a strong wind, instantly engulfed.
The aftermath of their collision spread to the edge of Death Island. The seawater boiled and pushed outwards, and the entire island sank.
"Fuffuffuffu."
Doflamingo laughed wildly,
Seemingly able to see the panicked faces of the audience behind the Den Den Mushi after this move, including Sengoku and the Five Elders at Navy Headquarters, and the Four Emperors.
This is the new era!
All former rules and laws can only be eliminated by the Reincarnation Game. Anyone who fails to master the abilities of the Reincarnation Game, even Imu, who stands at the peak of the world, will become a weakling to be bullied at will.
Silence.
The entire world was silent, and even the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Sengoku stared blankly at Death Island, where the smoke and dust had not yet dispersed.
He turned his head to look at a certain Vice Admiral who was constantly analyzing data, and asked, "Didn't you say that there was data sent back by a branch colonel, that Death Island is protected by special energy and its overall strength is several times that of the real world? Can you give me a precise number?"
The Vice Admiral who was called upon regained his composure, looked at Death Island with lingering fear, took a deep breath, and said, "The soil, rocks, seawater, buildings, and other materials of Death Island have already been purchased by the branch Navy and will soon be sent back to Navy Headquarters."
"Before analyzing and researching the materials, no data can be used as a reference standard."
Listening to his ambiguous answer, Sengoku frowned slightly and said, "I don't need standard data from material research. Just tell me your estimation."
"Nine times."
The Vice Admiral replied cautiously.
Nine times?
Sengoku took a deep breath, and a layer of fine sweat unconsciously appeared on his palms.
If calculated this way,
The aftermath of Mihawk and Garp's collision could even split the Red Line.
A single battle between the two could even change the map of the Pirate World, uniting the Four Seas.
Sengoku, who had already speculated about the Game Merchant's mysterious and powerful nature, felt that he had made sufficient mental preparations, but was still dizzy from this news.
Such a blatant battle,
Even the Five Elders couldn't sit still, could they?
"Bring me the Navy deployment map!"
Sengoku suddenly waved his hand, sending Navy soldiers to retrieve the deployment maps of Navy Headquarters and its branches.
Including the Four Seas and the Grand Line.
The deployment map showed all Navy training grounds, Navy bases, stationed Navy, and all Navy-related buildings and islands.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, is it not a good idea to mobilize the armies of the Four Seas now?"
Some Vice Admirals close to the World Government raised objections.
They were the World Government's infiltrators in Navy Headquarters, used to monitor and better control the Navy's high command.
For them, all interests needed to prioritize the World Government.
Previously,
Sengoku had forcefully demanded the use of military funds, which was already dancing on the edge of what the World Government could tolerate.
Now he even wanted to mobilize the Navy from the four major branches and the Grand Line without informing the World Government?
Navy Headquarters,
Is just a subordinate organization of the World Government. Although it controls a large number of troops, it is like a great general in an ancient kingdom where technology is still primitive.
All actions must obey the king, which is the World Government's dispatch.
Privately mobilizing a large number of armies from the Four Seas.
This had already touched the World Government's bottom line.
"Mobilize the Navy?"
Sengoku's gaze swept over their indignant faces with a puzzled look, and he explained, "Gentlemen, you misunderstand. I have no intention of mobilizing these Navy personnel."
It's good that he's not mobilizing the Navy.
The World Government-aligned Vice Admirals all breathed a sigh of relief.
The current Sengoku was completely different from before, filled with a sharp, cutting edge.
If unnecessary, they also did not want to conflict with Fleet Admiral Sengoku, as he was, after all, the Navy's supreme commander on the surface.
However, his next words made them feel faint.
"I plan to sell some useless Navy bases and facilities, exchange them for reward points, and support the East Blue."
