Clang... Clang...

The sound of iron clashing was endless. The coast was alternately hot and cold.

The shockingly cold ice sword and the blazing Kusanagi sword kept colliding.

Boom...boom... The two were not just competing in swordsmanship, but also in a duel of abilities, where ice and fire were constantly confronting each other.

"Chi..."

Wu.

Aokiji suddenly turned sideways, narrowly dodging the flaming slash that was coming straight at him. At the same time, the dark ice blade, carrying a strong freezing air, almost scratched Ren's neck.

The terrible heat wave made Aokiji, the Marine Admiral, feel unbearably hot and the surging cold air made Ren's hair stand on end.

Clang!!

Sparks sputtered. The ice blade and Kusanagi collided again.

"If I remember correctly, you should be a Mythical Zoan user, right? I didn't expect that even in your human form you can control such exaggerated flames..."

Aokiji held the blade with a stern look. Looking directly at the impossibly young 'Blood Demon' Ren in front of him, he was a little frightened.

The temperature of the flames that the other party can control in human form was really amazing. He felt as if he was facing his comrade and colleague, another Admiral of Headquarters - "Akainu"!

But the next moment, his seemingly tall and thin body, containing unimaginable power suddenly erupted, knocking Ren in front of him away: "However, facing me, an Admiral from the Navy Headquarters, you don't even use [Human-Beast Form] or [Beast-Form]. Isn't it a bit too arrogant?"

"Chi..." Next moment, he looked sharply. The ice blade tore through the atmosphere and blasted through the air. A stunning slash carrying Armament Haki, with lightning speed, hit Ren who was barely able to stabilize his body.

Clang...

His veins popped out. The blade wrapped with Haki was stretched in front of him, trying to block the fierce flying slash.

But his color changed in an instant, and his whole body was directly crushed by the terrifying and unstoppable slash of the high-level Armament Haki. He was sent flying backwards.

Boom boom... Smoke billowed and gravel flew. The earth was in a mess and was covered with cracks.

"The temperature is really terrible..." Looking at the ice blade, he must continuously output freezing air and have it covered with high-grade Armament Haki in order to be able to maintain it.

Aokiji was a little surprised. Even he continuously maintained the outputting of cold using his devil fruit but if his Armament Haki hadn't been strong enough, then the ice blades would have long since melted. Through this, one can imagine how terrifying Ren's flame is.

It made him feel like he was facing "Akainu", who was also the Admiral from Headquarters and a user of the Logia Magma-Magma Fruit ability.

"Ahem, Advanced Armament Haki, and swordsmanship that incorporates advanced Haki skills?" Somewhat embarrassed, Ren rushed out of the ruins like nothing happened.

Patting his chest, which should have been torn apart by Aokiji's blow without mercy because of his contempt and arrogance, but was unscathed: "As expected of the Admiral from Navy Headquarters..."

"Once you get serious, you start to show overwhelming power!" He was bathed in fierce flames. With a smile on his face, he stared at the creepy Aokiji who was covered in frost.

There was no fear in him at all. Instead, his eyes were blazing, showing a proud fighting spirit. Originally, he really couldn't block that blow and at the very least he would be seriously injured. This was the real gap between the two.

Just talking about swordsmanship, the two should be on par but there was a huge difference in Haki intensity and skill between the two. Relatively speaking, Aokiji undoubtedly had an overwhelming advantage.

"You are really a terrible monster..." Aokiji's eyes narrowed. His face became serious. Unexpectedly, Ren was unscathed from the blow he had just dealt. At first, he thought that no matter what happened, the other party would pay the price for his rashness and conceitedness, leaving a deep wound.

"The warm-up is almost over..." Ren grinned. His eyes were full of awe-inspiring fighting spirit and he directly put away his sword. He twisted his neck there, and his joints made bursts of popping noises: "As you wish. Next, is the main course!"

From gaining his devil fruit ability to now. It was true that Ren has never really gone all out and let go of his scruples to fight.

He wanted to use an Admiral, who represented the highest combat power of Naval Headquarters, as a whetstone to fully test my current limits.

He wanted to see how far you are from these monsters. Naturally, he was not prepared to let go of such a rare opportunity.

It wasn't that Ren was arrogant. He didn't think that he had truly surpassed monsters like Admirals of Headquarters but because he had enough confidence that he could escape directly even if he was defeated.

Relying on his exaggeratedly powerful fruit abilities and his special physique as a Lunarian, he could just run away if he couldn't win.

Among the three Marine Admirals, the only one who can truly pose a threat to him may be Kizaru, a user with the Logia Glint-Glint Fruit ability and an astonishing speed.

Moreover, Ren is not without advantages. His ability is quite special, coupled with a cheat-like racial talent.

Even though he had just become a Mythical Zoan user, he was not yet proficient in developing his own abilities but if he really goes all out, the temperature of his flames could be comparable to Kaido, or maybe even worse.

The increase in combat effectiveness will be greater than imagined. It's like Impel Down Director Magellan's poison, the kind that kills whoever touches it.

Even the Admiral from Headquarters who has mastered advanced Armament Haki if he comes into direct contact, he may not be able to completely block it.

…

"Huh...huh..."

The flames were blazing. Waves of hot breath caused the surrounding atmosphere to continue to rise.

"Roar--" A fierce heat wave swept across. A thunderous beast roar echoed endlessly. A majestic behemoth roared there.

"Hellfire!" The color of flames all around him began to change. Bathed in astonishingly intense dark red flames that truly seemed to come from hell, he had a bright golden horn on his head, his teeth were sharp and ferocious, his body was covered in scales and his gleaming claws were extremely sharp. His feet stepped on the auspicious clouds, directly distorting the atmosphere.

The earth melted into magma at a speed visible to the naked eye. Ren, who transformed into a Qilin, did not control his flame temperature at all like before, but directly used his full combat power.

The air was filled with terrible hot steam, and was distorted by the terrifying high temperature. The surrounding earth was overwhelmed and everything was melted into magma.

"Come on, Aokiji!!!"
