Chapter 14: Chapter 14
### Chapter 14: The Eyes Contact
Amid the chaos of the Marineford war, Madara sat regally atop the debris of the shattered ship, surrounded by dozens of Marine soldiers. He sighed deeply, a sound filled with both exasperation and contempt, as the soldiers hesitated, poised to attack. "Those who cannot gauge their opponent's danger are destined to perish in every world," he muttered, his voice carrying a hint of disdain and a cold, calculating edge. His words, though softly spoken, resonated with a chilling finality that seemed to freeze the air around him.
The scene then shifted dramatically to the fierce battle between Luffy and Mihawk. Luffy, despite his relentless determination, found himself struggling to land a single hit on Mihawk. Each of his attacks was effortlessly parried, Mihawk's movements precise and almost leisurely. Frustration mounting, Luffy realized the futility of this direct confrontation. With a fierce resolve burning in his eyes, he made a quick decision. "I don't need to fight you," he declared, his voice steady despite the chaos around him. "I just need to save Ace."
Activating his Gear Second, Luffy's body began to emit steam as his speed increased dramatically. In an instant, he dashed away from Mihawk, leaving a blurred trail in his wake. Mihawk, watching his retreat with an impassive expression, felt a twinge of disappointment. "It seems I overestimated you," he remarked, his tone almost sorrowful as he raised his sword. "Perhaps Shanks was wrong to place his faith in you."
With a single, powerful swing, Mihawk unleashed a massive green energy wave that tore through the icy ground, splitting it into two jagged halves. Luffy, barely managing to evade the attack, leaped aside just in time. As he landed, he stared in shock and awe at the destructive path left by the wave, a cold sweat breaking out on his brow.
The energy wave, a force of pure, unbridled power, continued its path of destruction. It cut through everything in its way, indiscriminately tearing apart the battlefield. Pirates and Marines alike scrambled to avoid it, the sheer scale of the attack creating a swath of chaos and fear. The wave's trajectory was set to collide with one of Whitebeard's ships, threatening to cleave it in half.
However, standing resolutely in the wave's path was Uchiha Madara. He held the last conscious Marine soldier by the collar, the others already lying unconscious at his feet, strewn about like discarded puppets. Those who witnessed this scene were paralyzed with fear, their instincts screaming at them to stay away from this man who exuded an aura of unmatched menace.
Suddenly, Madara felt a green light brush against his face, the sound of the energy wave growing louder in his ears. Turning his head with a measured calm, he saw the approaching wave, a devastating force that seemed unstoppable. Dropping the soldier with a casual flick, Madara's eyes transformed into the ominous Mangekyō Sharingan, and a massive Susanoo arm materialized, wielding a blade of pure chakra.
As he gazed unflinchingly at the oncoming energy wave, a slight smile curled his lips. "It seems there are those who can dance well after all," he mused, his voice tinged with a rare hint of admiration.
With a swift, decisive slash, Madara's Susanoo cleaved through Mihawk's energy wave, dispersing it into countless blue and green particles that sparkled like stars in the air. The spectacle was breathtaking, the sheer beauty of the scene a stark contrast to the violence that had created it. The clash of their powers had produced a shower of shimmering lights that hung in the air, a fleeting moment of wonder in the midst of the battle.
Many on the battlefield witnessed this incredible display, their eyes widening in awe and disbelief. Among them was Whitebeard, whose interest was piqued, an eyebrow raising in silent acknowledgment of Madara's formidable power. In the aftermath of the clash, Madara and Mihawk's eyes met across the battlefield, Mangekyō Sharingan locking with the piercing gaze of Hawk Eyes in a moment of silent recognition and mutual respect.
