Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Vice Admiral Sakazuki was rendered combat incapacitated.

"As expected of Master Shiraishi Osamu, he's incredibly strong."

"As expected, Devil Fruit abilities are not invincible. As long as you are strong enough, you can be invincible even without a Devil Fruit."

Seeing how easily they had defeated the previously domineering Sakazuki, Jinbe, Arlong, and Hody were all filled with excitement.

Chapter 0257: The Next One

Sakazuki, one of the two strongest vice admirals on the field.

And just like that, without any suspense, he was sent flying by Shiraishi Osamu.

However, no one on the field was surprised, even the moment they landed on the island and discovered Shiraishi Xiu.

Everyone was already prepared for the mission to fail.

At this point, they were only fighting out of a sense of duty to uphold the dignity of the navy and because of their mission.

“I have already seen the progress of Sákákáká, what about you, Borsalino?”

Shiraishi Osamu smiled and turned to look at Borsalino on the other side.

Although Borsalino and Sakazuki are at the same level of strength, Sakazuki has always been the main attacker in the previous battles.

Needless to say, Borsalino just slacked off.

"Haha, teacher is really amazing. No wonder you are known as the strongest man in the world. Even Whitebeard is no match for you."

Borsalino smiled somewhat helplessly.

He didn't share Sakazuki's unwavering commitment to naval justice, and therefore didn't go all out like Sakazuki.

Borsalino's sense of justice is ambiguous; he believes that most pirates' crimes are unforgivable.

Therefore, Borsalino is more motivated and eager to fight when facing ruthless pirates.

Facing his former teacher, the glory of the Navy, Shiraishi Osamu, Borsalino could hardly muster any fighting spirit.

Borsalino wasn't entirely willing to undertake this mission, the Buster Call, and the destruction of Ohara Island.

Sakazuki, however, insisted on absolute justice, believing that all evil that defied the Navy and the World Government must be eradicated in a cruel and ruthless manner.

Of course, due to the appearance of Shiraishi Osamu, Sakazuki has not yet fully implemented his belief in absolute justice.

"Enough with the nonsense, Borsalino, let me see your progress."

Bai Shixiu smiled and waited for his disciple to make a move.

"In that case..."

Borsalino took a deep breath. Now he almost wished he had been the one who had been knocked away, so he wouldn't have to face his former teacher alone.

However, because of the Demon Slayer Order, he couldn't just back down in front of everyone.

Whether it's good or bad, we have to go all out at least once.

Although the outcome was already predetermined, at least it wouldn't leave any handle for the higher-ups to have any bad suspicions about him.

"The Kusanagi Sword!"

Silently, a large number of photons gathered in Borsalino's hand, forming a sword of light.

And then, in the next moment...

call out!

Borsalino's body flashed with intense light, and he vanished from the spot in an instant, leaving no trace.

"Wow...so fast."

"I can't see anything at all. Does this guy's ability turn him into light?"

"So there really are people who can turn into light!"

Jinbe, Arlong, and Hody, who were watching from afar, all strained their eyes, but could only see a bright flash of light, and then Borsalino disappeared.

within sight.

They tried desperately to spot Borsalino, their eyes wide open, but all they saw was a blinding flash of light that made their eyes feel like they were going to go blind.

Too fast; compared to Sakazuki's terrifying attack power, it was absolutely destructive.

Borsalino has only one thing: speed, extreme speed.

Chapter 0258: Destructive Power

In the world of martial arts, speed is the ultimate weapon; once you reach a certain level of speed, your attack power will be formidable.

If the swordsmanship of the Radiant Rat emphasizes speed of sword strikes, then Borsalino is fast in every aspect.

Possessing the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit, he can transform any part of his body into light for attack and movement.

Its speed is so great that it is almost unmatched by any navy.

There are probably very few cars in the entire world that can surpass Borsalino in speed.

But unfortunately, right in front of him was someone who could surpass everyone else in speed: Shiraishi Osamu.

boom!

A flash of bright light, and Borsalino appeared beside Shiraishi Shu in an instant, as if using a teleportation-like ability, his Ame-no-Murakumo sword moving with unparalleled speed.

He swung his sword at Shiraishi Xiu, but Shiraishi Xiu remained calm and composed, wielding his black longsword as he slashed back.

The Kusanagi Sword and the black sword clashed together, producing a dull, metallic clang.

Shiraishi Osamu's black sword was made by himself.

He used Wood Release combined with Armament Haki, along with some information he had previously gathered about black swords in this world.

It was also inspired by the inspiration that his disciple Borsalino's Kusanagi sword gave to Shiraishi Osamu.

The jet-black color on this sword is a manifestation of Armament Haki, which is extremely powerful.

This is also why Sakazuki, even in his elemental form, was still unable to dodge Shiraishi Osamu's slash.

The black blade itself is incredibly hard, in no way inferior to any of the Supreme Grade Swords.

when!when!when!

Shiraishi Shusuke swiftly engaged Borsalino in combat, his movements as light as a leisurely stroll.

Both sides constantly changed their positions and shifted their stances on the field.

The speed was so fast that it was impossible for others to see it clearly.

Only a black light and a white light could be seen, intertwining and colliding within the arena.

"One-Sword Style, Iaijutsu!"

Borsalino suddenly retreated, then assumed a similar posture to the previous shrew.

Iaijutsu, also known as draw sword slash, emphasizes speed, extreme speed.

Although it is a relatively basic and common move among swordsmen, it has a completely different effect when used by Borsalino.

This move was learned by Borsalino from his training camp under Osamu Shiraishi when he was still in the Navy, through an exchange with Aurora.

Although he usually appears lazy, he has even been scolded by Zephyr for relying too much on his Devil Fruit powers.

However, Borsalino's talent was clearly not lacking, otherwise he wouldn't have been called a monster when he was in the Marine Headquarters recruit camp.

With the help of his Glint-Glint Fruit ability, Borsalino's speed of 760 in this Iai Slash completely surpasses that of the Rat, making him much faster.

A brilliant light emanated from Borsalino, causing the eyes of the onlookers to sting as if they were being pricked by thousands of tiny needles.

In that instant, everyone felt that Borsalino was like the sun, radiating an endless, intense brilliance that was dazzling and hard to look at directly.

But Shiraishi Osamu seemed completely unaffected by the light, his eyes fixed intently on Borsalino.

Whoosh!

Borsalino made his move, his speed reaching its peak. The Kusanagi Sword in his hand transformed into a streak of white light, and with this unparalleled speed, he unleashed his attack.

Chapter 0259: Straight and Spirited

A powerful aura also spontaneously erupted from Borsalino.

The terrifying pressure even created powerful vortexes around them.

hum!

A flash of white light appeared suddenly in front of Shiroshi, as Borsalino's wrist twitched again.

This white, cold light suddenly erupted, forming a massive and magnificent silver-white sword aura, which split into two and shot out simultaneously.

It shot towards Bai Shixiu with such powerful momentum that it seemed capable of severing everything in its path.

The level of this sword strike has completely surpassed the previous strike by Haoshu, who was a specialist in swordsmanship.

His formidable swordsmanship combined with the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit makes him terrifying.

"Not bad, Borsalino."

Looking at Borsalino's fierce sword strike, Shiraishi Xiu smiled gently and praised him.

It is said that Borsalino's current level of swordsmanship was due to his training in this way during the elite training camp.

After all, Shiraishi Shu had long believed that the Glint-Glint Fruit's ability to achieve extreme speed was simply perfect when combined with swordsmanship.

And now it seems that this is indeed the case.

In single-target attacks, Borsalino is second to none among his peers.

However, it's still far from being able to truly pose a threat to Shiraishi Osamu.

"One-sword style, Iai-slash II!"

Shiraishi Osamu used the same move as Borsalino, but he swung his sword more casually, as if he were just swinging it at random.

However, this does not mean that Shiraishi Osamu's swordsmanship is inferior to Borsalino's.

Rather, Shiraishi Osamu's swordsmanship was already highly refined; with a casual flick of his wrist, he was on par with other top swordsmen.

As Shiraishi Xiu swung his sword, a jet-black light emanated from the blade, like a black hole that devoured all hope, expanding continuously from a small point.

In just a moment, it transformed into a massive, jet-black sword aura, bursting forth towards Borsalino.
