Bab 54: Different Types Of Celestial Dragons
The unnamed swordsman looked at the disappeared Nicholas, and the sword stuck in the deck. He couldn't help scratching his head: "Logia types, especially those proficient in observation Haki, are really troublesome."
As the unnamed swordsman's voice fell, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared around the sword stuck in the deck. Then a hand emerged from the lightning, gripping the hilt of the sword, and shortly after, Nicholas' figure reappeared.
"You're quite a terrifying guy. I almost flipped the boat," Nicholas said with lingering fear. If it weren't for his expertise in observation Haki and the breakthrough he had recently made in his rehabilitation training, he might have suffered a big loss.
"Strong? brother, you overestimate me. I'm actually quite weak," the swordsman said.
Nicholas stretched out his sword and waved it towards the front. "Let me show you this move, Thunder Treasury!"
Boom!
Behind Nicholas, a large group of thunder suddenly appeared. Then, these thunders quickly transformed, eventually forming various weapons such as thunder swords, spears, and axes.
As Nicholas manipulated them, these thunder-armored weapons swiftly shot towards the unnamed swordsman, instantly blocking off the space he could evade.
Accompanying these thunder-armored attacks was Nicholas himself, wielding a sword.
Seeing this scene, the unnamed swordsman's pupils contracted. Regardless of Nicholas's sudden use of Thunder Treasury or his explosive speed, they were too fast.
Even behind Nicholas' sprint, there were a dozen or so thunder-formed weapons suspended in the air, ready to counteract his next move at any time.
Thunder Treasury was an ability Nicholas developed by exploiting the Goro Goro no Mi, which was inspired by certain techniques from a popular anime in his past life.
However, compared to the lengthy pre-attack skills of techniques like Kirin or Chidori, Thunder Treasury could be instantaneously launched and could respond quickly in both ranged and melee combat during battle.
As for the prototype of this move, it was a certain Mesopotamian king's treasure claimed to be the oldest.
Nicholas didn't have the king's treasure, but he had thunder. Moreover, as a user of the Goro Goro no Mi, he was practically the emissary of thunder in the world, plus the power and penetration of thunder itself. So Nicholas developed this move.
At this point, the unnamed swordsman was trapped by Nicholas's space blockade. Surprisingly, he did not panic. Instead, a fierce smile appeared on his face, the excitement of encountering a worthy opponent evident.
Along with the thunderous roar, his body began to exude blood, and a blood-red mist quickly enveloped him. Even through the blood-red mist, Nicholas vaguely saw a sea of corpses, with the man standing on the mountain of corpses in his fantasy.
For a swordsman, once they become a great swordsman, their own swordsmanship will be revealed in battles, just like how the attacks of Flower Sword Vista carry falling petals or how Roronoa Zoro's attacks embody Asura.
This kind of swordsmanship not only enhances attacks but also, to a certain extent, psychologically pressures the opponent.
Of course, facing an opponent of the same level, even the slightest advantage in attack will likely lead to a reversal in the battle.
And facing the opponent's swordsmanship, Nicholas did not flinch, his whole being exuding a sharper aura.
For swordsmen, besides relying on swordsmanship in duels, momentum is also crucial. Once the advantage is gained in the battle, it's possible to continuously press down on the opponent. Even if the opponent's strength surpasses yours, they may still be defeated under this kind of attack pressure. Of course, this situation often occurs with protagonists, known as a sudden power-up.
As for the unnamed swordsman's swordsmanship, Nicholas couldn't help but admire it. It was clear that this swordsman was very strong.
But for many subordinates who came with the ship, this scene directly dumbfounded them.
"Are you kidding me? The sky and the sea were actually split open. Are these people really humans?"
"Can humans be this strong?"
"I think the captain should be strong too. Hey, where's the captain?"
"I just saw that the captain seems to have been hit into the sea and hasn't shown up for a long time."
"Damn it! Hurry up and dive to rescue him!"
...
"Indeed, he is the most outstanding newcomer of the Rocks's Pirate Group."
On the Celestial dragon's ship, the unnamed swordsman propped up his black sword with one hand. At this point, his previously tidy clothes had become tattered, with numerous wounds bleeding on his body. Obviously, during the previous confrontation, Nicholas' thunder weapons caused him some minor losses.
"You're not lazy either, declaring your strength on the high seas," Nicholas said, putting away his long sword and staring into the other's eyes seriously. "You should be a celestial dragon, right? Which family among the 19 families?"
"Heh, you figured it out. But I'm no longer with those families," he said, then picked up his long sword, intending to continue fighting Nicholas.
And Nicholas simply turned around and left without saying a word. He had already confirmed the man's identity. He was a celestial dragon, and combining with the information he had provided, it was not unexpected that this man was likely directly under Imu's command.
…
"Troublesome indeed. Celestial dragons can dominate the top of the world for 800 years. How could they all be idiots?
As for these genealogies, they can stand at the pinnacle of the sea by leaving Mary Geoise in their youth, relying on backdoor channels. These genes are indeed powerful.
Captain Rocks, I'll burn a couple more incenses for you on special occasions in the future."
Back on the ship, Nicholas sighed as he looked around at the vast sea.
