Ryuya flashed before Dragon, Armament Haki crackling around his hands as he unleashed a devastating blow.
A furious wind erupted, seemingly tearing apart the very fabric of space.
A deafening boom echoed as the force rippled outward, centered on the two combatants. The source of thɪs content is N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt
Smoker, unable to withstand the sheer power, was sent sprawling, his smoke form barely mitigating the impact.
Tashigi, witnessing this display of overwhelming might, was utterly speechless, her worldview shattered.
The two continued their aerial battle, their clashing forces scattering the surrounding Marines.
Luffy, seizing the opportunity, fled towards the harbor, escaping to the Grand Line.
Dragon, though relieved, knew the fight was far from over.
Ryuya addressed Dragon calmly, "Your wounds healed already?"
"Thanks to you. Today, I settle the score!"
Dragon used Soru from the Rokushiki, closing the distance instantly. He unleashed an Armament Haki-coated dragon claw strike.
Ryuya, unfazed, countered with his own Armament Haki-imbued hands.
With a flick of a single finger, he unleashed a sword energy imbued with the power of a perfected Supreme-level swordsman, a devastating attack that sliced through the air like a white flash of light.
Dragon's face changed. He hadn't anticipated such mastery of swordsmanship.
He summoned a lightning bolt, combining it with Armament Haki to barely deflect the attack.
The Marines below were awestruck.
Was this the Revolutionary Army leader's true power?
But they were also reassured by White Dove's equally formidable strength, matching Dragon blow for blow, even gaining a slight edge.
This was the peak of a Marine Admiral's power.
Smoker, watching the battle, felt his spirit sink.
Despite his relentless training, he felt insignificant against Ryuya's overwhelming power.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't match Ryuya's natural talent.
Ryuya, so young yet so powerful, seemed unreachable.
The battle raged on, a whirlwind of motion and power.
The sky roared with thunder, echoing the clash of the two titans.
"I can't catch up... I'll never catch up.
The gap between us has only widened, an unbridgeable chasm," Smoker whispered, watching from the ground.
Tashigi, though anxious, was captivated by the battle, unable to offer comfort.
Her eyes shone with determination.
She would ask Ryuya to be her teacher after the fight, striving to become a formidable swordsman, not just a weakling.
Dragon addressed Ryuya, "White Dove, I've always wondered, are you truly content remaining in the corrupt Navy?"
Ryuya scoffed. "Joining you? Forget it. Your current strength is nothing to me. You're fine against ordinary nations, but against major powers, you're cowards! Try attacking Elbaf!"
A hint of resignation crossed Dragon's face. If they possessed Ryuya's strength, they would have already challenged Elbaf, instead of hiding in the shadows.
The Revolutionary Army, though large, consisted mostly of weak soldiers.
Only a few were truly strong, relying on the power of the Incite Incite Fruit. They could only grow slowly.
This was why Dragon repeatedly tried to recruit Ryuya; his addition would significantly strengthen their high-level combat power.
With two powerful figures, the Revolutionary Army could achieve greater victories, acquire more resources, and finally stand against the Marines.
Dragon, driven by his dream of an ideal nation, would continue to persuade Ryuya, believing that one day, Ryuya would see the people's suffering and join their cause.
But he didn't know that Ryuya held the Revolutionary Army in utter contempt.
As a time traveler who knew the original story, his ambition far surpassed Dragon's. He aimed not only for an ideal nation but also a utopian world, where true freedom flourished.
His goal: world peace. And he was working towards it.
