Rayleigh, of course, wouldn't let him go towards Luffy's side. As soon as Kuro took a step, Rayleigh rushed over.
At that moment, the snake's eyes in the tortoise-snake phantom stared at Rayleigh.
"This is..."
Rayleigh froze, and then in the next instant, his Conqueror's Haki emanated, instantly extinguishing the snake form of the Black Tortoise. At the same time, his longsword swirled with Haki and swiftly slashed forward.
Advanced and domineering slash!
Click!
The tortoise-shell-like shield shattered under this sword strike, along with Kuro's body.
"Why do you all like to glare like that? Secret Sword - Swallow Return."
Behind him came Kuro's voice. Kuro appeared behind Rayleigh, assuming an iaido stance, his blade drawn.
Three black beams enveloped Rayleigh's figure.
You think I'm going to run away?
Actually, I really want to chop you up!
You think I'm on the first floor, but I'm actually on the second floor.
Kuro cannot achieve his goal without harming him.
However, he never imagined that a single profound technique would be enough to deal with this old guy.
There was an old man who, even on his deathbed, could pierce through someone's profound secrets with a single glance. If this person couldn't do that, he wouldn't have almost been struck dead just now.
Xuanwu was just a decoy; the real move was yet to come.
"This swordsmanship..."
Rayleigh's pupils contracted. This was no ordinary three-slash attack. This strike actually gave him the feeling that he had no way to dodge it.
There's no way to dodge; you can only take the hit!
Bang!
Rayleigh's body flew backward, but landed quickly, crouched on the ground and slid for a while, leaving a trail of dust on the ground.
Blood stained his clothes from his waist, ribs, shoulders, chest, and abdomen.
Kuro slowly sheathed his sword and said to Rayleigh, "Did you defend? The old monster is something else."
"It really is..."
Rayleigh smiled and stood up. "I won't be fooled by you this time. But... Feng, your swordsmanship is a perfect inheritance of that person's. The new generation will look up to you."
【无明神风流】 is 'wind', and its profound meaning is composed of wind.
Xuanwu represents the wind, the tortoise shell represents the obstruction of the wind, and the snake's binding represents the restraint of the wind.
Similarly, the Azure Dragon is driven by the wind and water.
Suzaku is an immortal slash composed of wind.
The White Tiger represents the range and capture of wind.
Kuro's self-created Iaijutsu is also based on 'wind', otherwise how could he be so fast?
"lion..."
Kuro slightly squatted down and narrowed his eyes.
"Senkiriya!"
Autumn waters are drawn in an instant, a single slash cuts a hundred times.
Countless golden slashes swept towards Rayleigh, covering the sky like a blanket of golden light.
"Oh~"
Kizaru turned his head and said in surprise, "You're getting serious, Kuro."
"This move is not easy to block..."
Rayleigh's expression turned serious, and the domineering aura on his sword intensified once more. With a single swing, he deflected several incoming slashes.
He swung his sword quickly, and after a few swings, more than half of Kuro's attack was neutralized.
That's normal; it's within Kuro's expectations.
But that's exactly what he wanted.
After unleashing his slash, he moved swiftly, heading straight for the bear.
You think I'm going to fight you seriously?
No, I really want to get away.
You think I'm on the second level, but I'm actually still on the first level.
You wouldn't believe it!
This time, Rayleigh couldn't stop him.
Kuro rushed towards Kuma's position with lightning speed, causing Kizaru to exclaim in surprise, "Oh~ Kuro, do you mean to...?"
"Yes, sir, the person has been changed!"
Kuro slashed horizontally at Kizaru, and instantly, Kizaru's body turned into light and scattered. The blade followed the light and slashed towards Kuma on the opposite side.
Take a picture of me!
Kuro felt a sense of anticipation.
The bear, expressionless, stretched out its paw. The blade struck the fleshy ball, immediately bouncing off and blocking the attack.
Kuro quickly sheathed his sword, following the force of the impact, and then unleashed a quick slash. The blade scattered as it left the sheath, transforming into hundreds of afterimages.
"One-Sword Style: Hundred Shadow Slash!"
Take a picture of me!
Kuro was filled with anticipation.
Bang!
Bear accurately located the real slash within the afterimage, and a ball of air popped out of the fleshy ball of his hand, blocking Kuro's swing force before deflecting the blade.
Is it because its power wasn't strong enough, and it didn't detect my threat, which is why it didn't slap me away?
Kuro sheathed his sword again, Armament Haki spiraling around the hilt and wrapping around the entire scabbard.
"Moonlight!"
A streak of black light flashed past the bear at lightning speed.
Quick, take a picture of me!!!
Kuro began to roar in his mind.
This time, the bear took a step back, stretched out its arms, and both fleshy balls popped out of the air. Under the huge resistance formed by the air, Kuro's extremely fast slash slowed down, the blade appeared, and was then bounced away by the bear's hands.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from behind him. Rayleigh had already deflected the countless slashes and was heading straight for him, piercing through the air with his sword, aiming straight for Kuro's back.
Bang!
The moment Kuro was hit, his figure disappeared.
He appeared on the other side, gritting his teeth, feeling a dull ache in his back.
The sword did manage to pierce him, but he reacted quickly and, with the protection of his domineering aura, managed to dodge it slightly.
"Old man?"
Kuro turned his head and hurriedly went to find Kizaru.
"Oh, Lida, what are you eating? Could you give me some?"
On the other side, Kizaru had one hand in his pocket and the other outstretched towards Lida.
After a moment's thought, Lida took a banana out of her backpack and placed it in Kizaru's large hand.
