"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." Nine tails attacked Whitebeard, but he dodged them all. Whitebeard's attacks were not only powerful, but his speed was also extremely fast.
I never expected that this energy body could be used for extended attacks. Uchiha Tenki, you really have a knack for it. Whitebeard was also very impressed by Tenki's attack pattern.
Seeing that Whitebeard seemed to be handling the attack with ease, Tianqi stopped and retracted his tail completely.
"Why did you suddenly stop? I found it quite interesting!" Whitebeard smiled as he watched Tianqi stop attacking. To be honest, while the attack was good, it was somewhat lacking once their strength reached their level.
"Warm-up complete, let's get down to business!" With that, Tian Qi slowly raised his right hand, and a shuriken-shaped energy ball slowly appeared, its piercing sound instantly echoing across the battlefield.
That's right, this is Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, Naruto's signature ninjutsu in the Naruto world, a truly deadly move that can crush enemies.
"This powerful energy, hehehe, interesting!" Whitebeard was slightly surprised as he watched the energy ball in Tianqi's hand grow larger and larger. However, at the same time, he added vibration energy to the naginata again, this time even more powerful than before.
The spiral shuriken in Tianqi's hand grew to a full ten meters before stopping. After the shuriken took shape, Tianqi looked at the white-bearded man opposite him and said calmly, "Edward Newgate specifically said that I didn't warn you, but the power of this move of mine is exceptionally strong. If you're not careful, you could be killed at any moment!"
Hearing Tianqi's words, Whitebeard frowned. The power of that rotating energy ball was indeed very compressed, and he had roughly guessed the power of this move. However, now that Tianqi said so, he had to re-evaluate the power of this move, because Tianqi would not make things up. In other words, the power of this move was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
"How dare you! I, Whitebeard Newgate, am not so easily killed! Watch this!" With that, Whitebeard released an even stronger shockwave energy that covered the naginata, instantly enveloping the entire naginata in a two-meter-sized ball of light.
"Wind Release - Rasenshuriken!" Without any hesitation, Tianqi threw the Rasenshuriken out.
"It's interesting that you can throw out this kind of energy. Watch this!" The white-bearded man glanced at Tian Qi with admiration, and then he swung his naginata and also unleashed a two-meter-long ball of light.
"Boom boom boom..."
The spiral shuriken collided with the light sphere carrying the vibrational force, and the terrifying power exploded instantly. This force destroyed the land below and continued to spread outward. Tianqi and Whitebeard retreated quickly at the same time. After the terrifying power dissipated, a Mediterranean Sea seventy or eighty meters deep appeared in the center of the land, which was tens of kilometers away.
"You are indeed very powerful. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have lost with that attack!" Whitebeard shook his head helplessly. If Tianqi hadn't reminded him, he would have been careless and lost the duel. It can be said that the difference in skill was already clear in the clash just now.
"There are no ifs or ifs. I will go all out and leave no room for error. If you continue to hold back, defeat is only a matter of time!" With that, Tianqi took the Tianzongyun Sword and charged forward on the water. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of the white-bearded man.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!..."
Tianqi, the Swift Wind Swordsman, unleashed his full power and clashed with Whitebeard. The sounds of swords clashing rang out continuously. Both of them had a fierce fighting style, and the contest was about who had the greater strength.
"Haa!!!" After three minutes of fierce fighting, Tianqi seized an opportunity and delivered a heavy blow that sent Whitebeard flying. Tianqi possessed the strength of a Swiftwind Swordsman, but Whitebeard did not have such abilities. His swordsmanship was only around that of a beginner Great Swordsman. Furthermore, with Tianqi's Nine-Tails Mode enhancement, it was normal for Whitebeard to be sent flying.
"Hmm, I am indeed inferior to you, the world's number one swordsman, in terms of swordsmanship. Tianqi, let's not waste any more time and settle this with one move!" At this moment, Whitebeard also realized that Tianqi was powerful and that he would surely lose if he continued to drag things out. Therefore, he decided to fight Tianqi in one move.
"That's exactly what I was thinking. Let me show you the power of my Devil Fruit!" Tian Qi's lips curled up slightly. Whether in swordsmanship, Haki, or Devil Fruit power, he was stronger than Whitebeard. It was only a matter of time before he won.
Whitebeard began to gather his power, and the powerful force caused the land beneath his feet to crack continuously. The formidable power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, mixed with Conqueror's Haki, erupted continuously, and the land created by Tianqi began to shake violently.
As he watched Whitebeard's Conqueror's Haki and Vibration Energy continuously gather, Tian Qi nodded in satisfaction. This was truly the level of the number one pirate; the terrifying power had directly solidified into a tangible form. If this were to unleash a single attack, destroying a large island would be a piece of cake.
"Hahaha... This is the strength you, Whitebeard, should have. Not bad, not bad at all. I'm already satisfied to be able to fight someone like you. Today, regardless of the outcome, I've given you, Whitebeard Newgate, face. Watch me!"
As Tian Qi spoke, just like Whitebeard, the power of time mixed with the power of Conqueror's Haki surged forth. The two of them unleashed their power at the same time, and the entire landmass shook continuously.
"Conqueror's Haki envelops me!"
"Conqueror's Haki envelops me!"
Both are kings who possess Conqueror's Haki, and they are very clear about how to use it. In fact, Conqueror's Haki Entanglement and Armament Haki Entanglement are very similar. The former is to attack from a distance, while the latter destroys from the inside. Both can instantly break down the enemy's defenses. However, Armament Haki Entanglement increases the density, while Conqueror's Haki Entanglement increases the power by tenfold.
After Whitebeard imbued himself with Conqueror's Haki, he also incorporated the vibration energy of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit into his weapon. Tian Qi did the same, except that he incorporated his time power into the Heavenly Cloud Sword.
"If you can withstand this move, I'll admit defeat!" Before Tian Qi could answer, the white-bearded man swung his sword forward, but stopped halfway through the swing, as if something was blocking his way.
However, this wasn't because something was blocking his way, but rather Whitebeard's unique attack method. Although the naginata wasn't fully swung, the attack had already been launched. Sure enough, the land in front of Whitebeard began to shatter the next second, and an invisible shockwave shot straight into the sky.
"Hmph! Time Impact!" Tian Qi watched as the terrifying power rushed towards him. Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and swung his sword. A slashing force immediately rushed towards the shockwave.
The two forces collided, but this time they did not cancel each other out. Tianqi's power of time directly annihilated the vibration energy and then continued to rush towards Whitebeard. Seeing the power of the slash coming towards him, Whitebeard also held his naginata in front of him to block it.
"bite!"
With a clang, Whitebeard was neither dead nor injured, but the naginata that had always followed him was broken in two. Tianqi had destroyed his sword with just one strike.
This sudden scene stunned everyone present, especially the members of the Whitebeard Pirates. Their father had always been a legendary pirate, and over the years, no one had been able to knock his weapon away, let alone break it. Yet, this scene had unfolded today, which shocked them greatly.
"What a powerful Uchiha Tenchi! What methods did he use to even cut through Whitebeard's naginata? Uchiha Tenchi's Devil Fruit ability is simply too strong!" Blackbeard Teach, hiding in the crowd, was also flushed with anger. He really wanted to rush up and snatch Tenchi's Devil Fruit. He loved this kind of Devil Fruit ability that he couldn't even see through.
"Sigh..." Shanks and Ryoma shook their heads and sighed when they saw this. The longer they spent with Tianqi, the more they felt that he was an insurmountable mountain. They didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse to live in the same era as such a strong person.
Hancock stared at Tianqi with fascination. If anyone present was happiest about this victory, it would have to be Hancock. Even Nico Robin looked at Tianqi with admiration. Only now did she realize just how strong Tianqi was. Even the Whitebeard Newgate, who was already famous throughout the seas, was no match for him. This was simply too amazing.
Whitebeard stared blankly at the naginata broken in two in his hand. Coming to his senses, he sighed softly and said with a hint of helplessness, "You are extremely powerful in both strength and swordsmanship. I have indeed lost this time. As agreed, I will not interfere in Kaido's affairs. You can do whatever you want with him!"
Whitebeard's feelings were also very complicated at this moment. Since he made a name for himself, he had only lost once, to Roger, but it was only by one move. But now even his weapon had been cut in half. How could he not have complicated feelings?
"What a pity about this naginata that has been with me for decades..." The white-bearded man shook his head as he spoke, and without caring what Tianqi thought, he shouted to his crew, "My men, it's all over, get ready to set sail!"
"Yes!!!" After the Whitebeard Pirates realized what was happening, they responded and followed Whitebeard to leave. They came quickly and left quickly, but Blackbeard kept looking back at Tian Qi.
As he watched Whitebeard and his pirate crew prepare to leave, Tianqi sheathed his Heavenly Cloud Sword back into his waistband. He also expressed his admiration for Whitebeard, praising him for his integrity and true character.
