  "As soon as Rojen's thought ehe system responded: 'Spending 75 Million Belly, summoning a Green Grade Soul.'

  A faint, swirling light burst forth, and a t figure desded, merging with Rojen in an instant.

  The figure's face was cold, and his eyes were crimson red, gleaming with an otherworldly brilliahe fusion with Rojen's body happened incredibly fast – within moments, the figure had pletely ied with him.

  Rojen's body trembled as he reopened his eyes, now tinged with crimson, where three tomoe spun rapidly in each pupil.

  'This time… is it Uchiha Itachi?'

  A slight smile appeared on Rojen's lips. He had no idea how the system assigned power levels to these souls, but summoning a top-tier Ninja from Naruto like Uchiha Itachi for 75 Million Belly was undeniably a stroke of immense luck.

  'Green Grade Peak Soul: Uchiha Itachi!'

  'Bloodline: Sharingan. Specializes isu and Ninjutsu.'

  As the information quickly streamed through his mind, Rojen began to harmoh Uchiha Itachi's essenbsp;

  Gradually, he felt an immense power surging within him, flowing into his limbs and bones, strengthening his entire being. This id, invisible transformation. In mere moments, Rojen's physical strength had risen to a new level.

  With the temporary possession of the Sharingan, Rojen's eyes, with their three spinning tomoe, observed the charging Mario his enhanced vision, their movements now seemed sluggish.

  Suddenly, Rojen moved.

  In that instant, the Rainbow Abyss sword at his back was drawn.

  Hum!

  The crisp sound of the bde's hum echoed as a brilliant sword light erupted. Rojen strode forward, and with just a few steps, he reached the Marines ahead of him. His speed resembled teleportation, closing the teer distan a blink. This eerie speed left the Marines momentarily stunned.

  Following this, an even more terrifying sword light appeared.

  "A sirike of the Blue Soul— its brilliance chills all uhe sky!"

  The blue radiance reflected in everyone's eyes. It was a sight of unparalleled beauty, yet it robbed their senses of posure.

  Rojen's expression remained calm. With the Sharingan active and backed by Uchiha Itachi's lifetime of bat experience, his fighting capability at that moment was nothing short of terrifying.

  "Swish!"

  As Rojen brushed past them, he didn't pause for a moment, swiftly evading the Marines' assault.

  "Pfft!"

  Blood sprayed in the air, and the Marines colpsed to the ground, screaming in pain.

  Before such a masterful dispy of swordsmanship, they couldn't even withstand a sirike.

  Seeing this, Dragon's pupils shrank. Acc to his ihis boy was only at the level of a 40 to 50 Million Belly bounty – and even that was already a generous estimate. Yet, he had just defeated officers of siderable rank in one move.

  "Was he hiding his true strength all along?"

  "Defeating five ranked officers irike… this kid is terrifying!"

  For someone of his age to wield such power, Rojen's potential was clearly on par with that of his elder brother, Pirate King Roger. This also proved that Rojen was undoubtedly worth a bounty of over 100 Million Belly.

  "I uimated you!" Dragon took a step forward, his justice cloak billowing behind him, his expression solemn and focused.

  "State your name, Marine!" Rojen walked past the fallen officers writhing in pain, his long sword pointing directly at Dragon.

  Though he was familiar with characters from anime, fag them in person made it difficult to immediately reize them.

  "Monkey D. Dragon. Marine Rear Admiral!" Dragon said in a deep voice. "Rojen, by order of the Marine Headquarters Fleet Admiral, I am here to arrest you today!"

  "Surrender yourself!"

  Hearing the Marine's name, Rojen froze in surprise.

  "Dragon?!"

  Rojen was genuinely surprised. He hadn't expected that the imposing figure before him was her than Dragon, the future leader of the Revolutionary Army from the anime, a man who would ter shake the world and be branded as the most dangerous criminal alive. His notoriety was on par with that of the Pirate King himself.

  "Iing. I really didn't expeeet you here!"

  A faint smile appeared on Rojen's lips, and his mind grew calmer.

  The sudden enter with such a powerful oppo stirred excitement in his heart. After all, wasn't it thrilling to face off against a well-known, formidable character from the anime during their youth?

  "You know me?" Dragon raised an eyebrow in surprise.

  "The famous Rear Admiral Dragon – who wouldn't know you?" Rojen responded with a light chuckle.

  Dragon found this even strahis was his first mission away from the headquarters, and his supposed fame was only within the Marines. How could someoside the anization know him?

  Without further small talk, Rojen's eyes narrowed as the three tomoe of his Sharingan spun faster. He khat in a fight like this, he couldn't go all out from the start. The initial phase had to be about testing each other's real strengths.

  With a flick of Rainbow Abyss Sword, a crisp hum echoed as the sword carved a beautiful pattern in the air. In the moment, Rojen made his move.

  His footsteps were light yet oddly elusive. Though he appeared to be moving slowly, his progress was astonishingly fast.

  In a fsh, he reached Dragon's side, drawing his sword in a sudden arc aimed directly at Dragon's neck.

  "Whoosh!"

  Like a gust of wind, Dragon narrowly evaded the strike. But immediately after, a relentless storm of sword shadows desded upon him. Dragon was taken aback by Rojen's seamless swordsmanship – it was airtight and overwhelmingly aggressive. For the moment, he found himself on the defensive, forced to retreat.

  g! g! g!

  Oacked, and the other retreated. Within mere moments, their battle had spanned a hundred meters.

  The Ghost Valley Unhindered Sword Method – is swift and precise – and it is also a perfect blend of offense and defense.

  When attag, it resembled a thuorm desding from the sky, fierd ruthless. A single flick of the sword tip could trap an enemy in a storm-like onsught akin to a barrage of lightning strikes. When defending, it was like a coiled serpent ready to strike, or a turtle with an imperable shell – solid, without a single fw.

  Under such circumstances, even Dragon had no choice but to tireating for the moment.

  Within just a few seds, Dragon found himself backed against the fountain at the end of the street.

  At that precise moment, Rojen's right hand trembled slightly, unleashing an even more ferocious wave of swordsmanship. In an instant, thirty-six dazzling sword blossoms bloomed in the air before Dragon.

  This indicated that, in that brief instant, Rojen's sword had attacked Dragon from thirty-six different angles.

  "Such terrifying swordsmanship!"

  Dragon's eyes narrowed, but this time, instead of evading, he stood his ground, allowing the thirty-six sword blossoms to bloom upon him.

  In the instant the thirty-six sword blossoms fully bloomed, Rojen's pupils suddenly tracted in shock.

  "Passed through him?!"

  To his disbelief, the sword shadows passed directly through Dragon's body. At the same time, a rge hand desded toward him from above.
