Raise the basic movements of kendo, mind, skills, and body to the extreme, listen to all sounds, and cut everything off with the wind of God. Duke swung his sword and the blade cut like the wind, accompanied by a flash of cold light, sweeping the air in an instant, creating a clear dividing line.
Kamisaki Kaori bore the brunt of the attack. Before the sword energy even reached her, she could already feel the sting of the wind cutting her skin. A few strands of her hair fell off, and Kamisaki Kaori's mind was clear. She was neither anxious nor tried to dodge. The voice in the dark reminded her that retreating and dodging would bring disaster.
Kamiya Kaoru did not retreat but advanced, taking a step forward with her right foot. The arm pressing on the Seven Heavens Seven Swords moved slightly, and an illusory afterimage flashed by. Slender sharp blades slashed out from the blade, cutting through the air with a hissing sound.
In the open space between the two people, a violent roar suddenly erupted, and the sharp metal cutting sound like grinding teeth continued. The sudden impact of the energy rushed in all directions, cutting a large number of fine grooves in the urban jungle made of steel and concrete.
Under the full moon, the breeze blew, and the shattered road surface and the green belts on both sides of the road were scattered like dust and turned into ashes. Duke and Kanzaki Kaori faced each other from a distance. At some point, dense metal wires shot out from the void and filled the space between them.
"Magic?" Duke frowned in dissatisfaction. He wanted to challenge a swordsman, not a magician. If Kanzaki Kaori kept fighting him with magic, it would be too boring.
"My magic name is 'Salvare000', which means 'to lend a hand to those who cannot be saved'! It would be presumptuous of me to conceal the name of my magic from a strong man like you." Kanzaki Kaori exhaled a breath of foul air. Just one confrontation and test made her feel dazed. It was the fear of death. It was not an illusion, but a warning of the future from the heart of a strong man who had experienced many battles.
The figure of Kanzaki Kaoru suddenly disappeared, and she broke through the sound barrier at lightning speed, swinging her sword towards Duke. The transition between stillness and movement was so fast that Duke had no time to react. The power of the Son of God was fully demonstrated at this moment.

So fast! How could it be so fast? Kamiya's hair stood on end, and the two-meter-long sword came out of her body in an instant. The physique of a saint allowed her to draw the sword and block at a speed beyond the limit of human beings.
Duke even thought that if Kamijou Kaori's 'Seven Days and Seven Swords' were put into the pirate world, its sturdiness would not be much inferior to the 'Twelve Skills of Supreme Great Swords'.
"Self-healing ability?" Kanzaki Kaoru's eyes shone, and she said in a rather awkward manner. From the beginning to now, Duke had demonstrated many abilities in front of her, which made her a little unsure of Duke's methods.
With a loud bang, Duke was knocked flying and smashed into the building behind him. He went through more than ten walls and was buried in the rubble.
"boom------"
"Judging from your explosive power, your physical fitness has reached inhuman levels. It would be a waste to use such strong physical strength to cast magic. Don't use magic, let's have a real fight!" The long sword in Duke's hand flashed with a cold light, and a bone-chilling chill burst out, freezing the nearby water vapor into ice particles that fell to the ground.
Articuno's healing ability was activated, and Duke's injuries were wiped out. The ice blade in his hand extended at the cross section and was covered with armed color again.
Kamiya Kaori looked at the black knife in Duke's hand thoughtfully. Although her education level was not good enough to complain about, she was still very clear about simple physics. The colder the ice, the more brittle it was, and it was impossible to cut her steel wire easily. In other words...
A hint of surprise flashed in Kamisaki Kaoru's calm eyes. Her magic was to use steel wire for medium and long-range moves. The strength of the steel wire was closely related to the destructive power of her magic, and it was not something that could be broken by human power. The degree of toughness was such that even large-scale magic could be blocked. This was the first time she saw someone cut the steel wire so easily.
“Well done!”
Duke only had time to raise the black knife to block in front of him, and the huge air waves collided, sparking a little fire at the intersection. The next second, the destructive aura spread outward from the two of them. Kamisaki Kaoru, who borrowed the power of the stigma, retreated half a step, and Duke's figure disappeared.
"What a great sword!" The negative effect of inheriting the habit of collecting famous swords in the pirate world appeared, and Duke looked at Kamijou Kaori with a greedy look on his face...and the sword in her hand.
When the sword energy cleared a large area, Duke disappeared from the spot, and the whistling blade had already landed on Kamiya Kaoru's neck.
"I was careless!" Duke was excited to see the prey. Compared with Accelerator, a saint with a strong body like Kamijou Kaori was more to his liking.
Crash————
"As you wish!" Kamiya Kaoru snorted coldly. Duke's contempt for her magic in his words made her a little angry.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang——————
"Did we win?" Kamiya Kaoru stared at the front. Even though she had used the power of the stigmata, she still felt unsure.
“clang——”
When the two long swords collided, Kamiya Kaoru felt a powerful force coming from the blade. She didn't care about the shock in her heart and quickly raised her other hand to touch the back of the blade, thus avoiding the embarrassing scene of the Seven Days Seven Swords being knocked away. However, even so, she was still shocked by the huge force and retreated again and again.
Kanzaki Kaori subconsciously clenched the Seven Days Seven Blades, and suddenly felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She glared at Duke with a bad face. The Seven Days Seven Blades was the result of thousands of years of accumulation of the Amakusa-style Cross Church. As the contemporary female pope, she only had the right to use it, not the ownership. When she abdicated, the sword would be returned to the church. The responsibility she shouldered to inherit this sword was not as simple as talking, so she would never allow anyone to covet it. "Let's make a bet, using this sword as the bet. If I win..." Duke licked his lips, but was interrupted rudely when he was halfway through his words.
Due to insufficient intelligence, Kamiya Kaoru did not dare to let Duke do what he wanted, and entered the God Splitter state again. She moved at a speed faster than the speed of sound, and flashed above Duke's head like teleporting. Her long sword drew a crescent-shaped light close to the ground and slashed down at a high speed.
Duke slashed down with his sword, but did not pursue the opponent. He looked at the long sword covered with Armament Haki. In the moonlight, he could see a gap in the middle of the blade. Although Armament Haki was deprived of the ability to restrain elements in the Magical Index world, its ability to enhance defense was not weakened at all. With the strength of his Haki, he did not get an advantage in the close combat with weapons. This can only mean that the long sword in Kamijou Kaori's hand is definitely a divine weapon.
"Is your knife just a decoration? What about your swordsmanship? If it's just a magic show, I won't be interested at all." Duke raised his knife, and the black blade scratched the metal wire in front of him. Sparks appeared, and the invisible silk thread as thin as cow hair was immediately cut off.
Facing this unstoppable attack, Duke no longer held back. The tip of the knife cut through the air, creating a large vacuum and stabbing at the falling blade. The tip of the knife tapped lightly continuously, followed by clusters of explosive sparks. Each tap caused ripples in the void, creating a circle of waves, and the aftermath of the collapse made the two men's clothes rustle.
Duke pushed away the gravel on his body and appeared on the street in an instant. His white coat was torn into a beggar's uniform, and his body was covered in blood. The black knife in his hand was also broken into two pieces, and he looked very embarrassed.
"It should have been done long ago." Duke dispelled the chill from the black knife, and the tip of the knife touched the ground and slashed from bottom to top. The sword energy spread out like mercury, rubbing violently against the metal wire wherever it passed, and the energy that exploded dissipated, turning the surrounding ground into dust.
As Kanzaki Kaori's slash fell, the entire space around Duke seemed to be imprisoned by an invisible force, becoming extremely sticky. Duke knew that this was not magic, but an illusion brought to him by the opponent's extreme speed.
The Seven Days and Seven Swords seemed to slow down into a half circle, and from all kinds of tricky angles, she chopped or thrust, and it rained down rapidly. In the God-Splitting state, the time she spent from swinging the sword to putting it away was less than one hundredth of a second.
Duke's speed was equally fast, his figure was like a phantom, almost one piece. In less than a second, the two blades collided a hundred times.
The shock wave of the collision spread everywhere, and a large amount of gravel and dust was raised on the street. Trees and street lights on both sides of the road collapsed, and the glass of nearby office buildings was shattered. The entire street was fragmented as if the end of the world had come, and there was not even a single intact corner.
At the center of the violent energy, the fight between Duke and Kanzaki Kaori became more and more intense, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.
