The Strongest Hokage-Chapter 518: Heavy Like A Mountain

Chapter 518: Heavy Like A Mountain

The Vice Admirals got angry when Naito dared to challenge all of them at once.

One of them sneered and stepped in.

The Vice-Admiral was tall, holding a wide-bladed long sword in his hand.

"It's Vice Admiral Towel!"

"He captured a large pirate crew with a bounty of more than 500 million. He has no Devil Fruit, but both his swordsmanship and Rikushiki are superb, and he's absolutely powerful."

Seeing this tall vice-admiral coming forward, the soldiers in the rear showed awe.

He once was on pair with the three Admirals, Kizaru, Akainu, and Aokiji, but his strength was inferior to the trio. Therefore, they become Admirals, and he was stuck in the middle. Even though he was just a Vice Admiral, he was extremely strong, and he ranks among the best.

"His swordsmanship tends to be defensive. None of us can break it. If he can block Naito's attack, he will probably win."

Well, he has a better chance of winning.

Several Vice Admirals were about to step up, but they all stood by when they saw him.

Under everyone's gazes, his sword intent had risen like a solid mountain.

Then he looked at Naito and said solemnly, "Please teach me about Vice Admiral Naito's swordsmanship!"

Hearing these words, the soldiers in the rear who didn't know Naito finally came back to their senses and recognized who was the young man in white in front of them.

"He turned out to be Vice Admiral Naito, but he's too young!"

"I heard that he had drawn with the World's Greatest Swordsman, Mihawk. I don't know if it's true or not, though."

When they learned about Naito's identity, they all looked astonished. They originally thought that Naito was an ordinary captain. They didn't expect him to be one of the Vice Admirals.

"So you're a defensive swordsman?"

Naito stood there, staring at the Vice-Admiral, then casually raised his sword and waved it lightly.

Whoosh!!

The golden aura suddenly surged like a meteor falling from the sky with a stream of light!

Roar!!

With a loud roar, holding his huge long sword with both hands, the Vice-Admiral swept upward and crashed the golden sword energy cut!

After a cold snort, he waved his giant sword in his hand and rushed towards Naito.

In a battle between swordsmen, sword energy cuts are generally only a tentative technique, and the real attack is still should be close ranged swings.

In other words, the length of the sword and the arm are major factors for winning.

Sword Energy Cuts are long-range attacks. And even though they're cool, unless it reaches Mihawk's level, the attack power isn't as good as a close-up swing.

This is why the battle between swordsmen is often determined by close combat, instead of two people facing off with Sword Energy Cuts.

The giant sword in the Vice Admiral's hand was very long, so he narrowed the distance between him and Naito to the range of his sword's reach in one step, then he fiercely swung it.

The hard mountain-like sword intent accompanied by this swing crashed down as if it could split the sea and tear the earth!

It's like a mountain, falling from the sky!

"Do you think this will heavy sword overwhelm people with power?"

Looking at his sword, Naito didn't have any panic, but in fact, he looked as calm as ever.

"But… what if you got crushed by a bigger mountain?!"

While speaking faintly, Naito's sword intent suddenly changed, it was still the kind of extremely domineering, but it instantly became extremely heavy, like an unshakable giant tower!

Facing the Vice Admiral's heavy sword, Naito didn't have the slightest intention of retreating.

On one side, the Vice Admiral's sword that was being held by both hands and falling down fiercely; on the other, it was the bright golden sword held with one hand and swung upward.

No matter how you looked at it, it seems that Naito is about to be cut in half.

A few soldiers were even afraid to watch this tragedy and couldn't help but close their eyes.

Ding!

The two swords suddenly collided, but the imaginary scene didn't occur.

Instead, the Vice Admiral's sword was completely blocked in mid-air, unable to move any further!

Naito's thin body, standing there, seemed like an iron nail pierced into the ground, motionless. And the golden sword didn't even tremble at all!

On the contrary, the Vice-Admiral, who held his giant sword with both hands, was constantly trembling, and his hands were even shaking!

He widened his eyes suddenly and looked at Naito with disbelief. He couldn't believe that Naito could block a full swing from him with that small sword!

Moreover, that golden sword didn't even move an inch at the impact, while he barely had a good grip on his sword from the counter-shock.

Boom!!

Finally, he could no longer maintain his foothold, and the giant Vice-Admiral was pushed back with his big sword a few steps backward before he could finally stop!

What made him even more shocked was the cracks on his sword!

"Impossible! Even though I was using Busoshoku Haki…"

There was an unbelievable look in his eyes. Seeing that his sword was cut was even more shocking than the fact that he was blocked by Naito.

Because he used Busohoku Haki, and he could perceive that Naito didn't use it at all!

"It's impossible for a sword to be sharp enough to cut through the Busoshoku Haki even if it's one of the Supreme Grade Swords… What kind of a sword is that?!"
