Starting from the pirates, pushing the world.

Chapter 2463 He is now facing Dalmesia!

(Based on suggestions from the council members in the group, the content regarding Bud's awakening of Conqueror's Haki has been revised.)
A figure slowly coalesced within the Buddha's light.

He was dressed in a white suit, with a snow-white coat of justice draped over his shoulders. He was tall and imposing, with a kind yet dignified face.

A red dot in the center of the forehead symbolizes the opening of the third eye and the deep study of Buddhism.

A soft halo of light floats behind the head, containing wisdom and power.

He was simply standing there.

It creates a sacred atmosphere that brings peace of mind, yet makes one want to worship.

"Ok?"

Zephyr, Garp, Tsuru, and Kuzan immediately became alert.

But upon seeing the newcomer's face, their surprise and joy turned into pure delight.

"The Warring States period?!"

Zefa abruptly released his arms from his chest.

At the same time, he stood up and looked at Sengoku, who was smiling and had his hands in his pockets.

Garp dropped the rice cracker bag from his hand and gaped open.
"What happened to you? How did you end up like this?"

Although it's just a cinnabar mole and a halo behind the head, the change in temperament it brings is indeed significant.

Crane was the first to calm down, keenly sensing the unfathomable aura of the Warring States period.

"This is not a simple magical ability; it is a transformation at the level of life itself?"

"you made it!"

The other party is in seclusion on Noah's Ark for further studies.

As Teresa's teacher, she was the first of the four to find out.

The Sengoku Emperor, now a 'Buddha-King', nodded slightly with a calm and profound smile on his face.

"Zeff, Garp, Tsuru, Kuzan, it's been a long time."

His voice was gentle yet possessed a magical power that reached straight to the heart and soothed all restlessness.

“I have experienced hundreds of reincarnations in the ‘Main God Space’.”

"By tempering the Buddha's mind amidst the thoughts of all beings, I have now attained perfection, broken through attachments, and achieved the fruition of Buddhahood."

Next, Sengoku spent a few minutes briefly explaining his changes to the group.

Although the tone was calm, it still contained the weight of an extraordinary journey.

"what!"

"You have not only reached the second awakening stage of the Great Buddha Fruit!"

"Has the domineering aura already achieved the unification of the three colors, reaching the colorless realm?"

Garp was stunned after hearing this, as were Zephyr and Kuzan.

They went to great lengths and endured many years of hardship to break through to the level of general.

Garp had the easiest time.

Zefa was forced to find an alternative path and create his own way.

Kuzan, on the other hand, has cultivated natural energy for many years.

With the aid of the Crimson Lotus Blood and the blood battle with the highest-ranking demon, he comprehended the power of the Frozen Rule.

In the end, I was able to successfully awaken to the second awakening only with the help of the 'Five Stars Merging with the Sea'.

despite this.

To date, the three of them have only broken through the limits of power in one aspect.

What about the Warring States period?
To outsiders, it looked like he slept on Noah's Ark for eleven months.

Upon waking, one is immediately struck by the combination of "Great Buddha's Second Awakening" and "Colorless Overlord Aura".

He was also bestowed the title of 'Buddha-King' and the dimensional authority of 'Buddha Realm Pure Land' by Lord Im.

Kuzan scratched the back of his head and couldn't help but tease, "Ara ara~, isn't that a bit too much favoritism, Lord Im?"

"Lord Im is not much worse to you."

Crane glanced at him: "You and Sakazuki can use something as big as 'Five Stars Converging into the Sea' as a resource."

"Pfft, hahaha—"

"Lord Im's help to us is truly impeccable."

Garp chuckled and said, "As for you, Tsuru, you should be catching up by now, right?"

He simply smiled and offered no explanation.

He simply replied that he didn't need to fight and didn't have many requirements regarding strength.

These words made the way Sengoku looked at her become meaningful.

A look of surprise flashed in the crane's eyes as it sensed this, and it thought to itself, "Could he have figured it out?"

He realized that his Wash-Wash Fruit ability had already awakened to its second level.

After the initial surprise of reuniting with old friends, the conversation quickly returned to business.

Although the Warring States period spanned hundreds of generations, its people had already attained profound Buddhist wisdom and were able to quickly understand the realities of the world.

"I see."

"Elder Kong has also achieved colorless Haki; congratulations!"

He had no objection to being promoted to Chief of the General Staff and to Kuzan succeeding him as Admiral of the Navy.

"You'll have to work hard on the navy side from now on."

Kuzan's expression turned serious, and he nodded solemnly: "I understand, Mr. Sengoku!"

The words fell.

A brilliant, deep blue lightning flashed outside the window; Enel's thunderous strikes decisively defeated Budo.

It was as if they were celebrating a new order in the military leadership.

Army Headquarters.

Many officers and generals have gathered around the sixteenth dueling arena.

Their gazes were all focused on two figures in the arena with vastly different auras.

On one side was Lieutenant General Dalmesia, with a composed posture, a stern face, and eyes as sharp and focused as a hunting dog.

He had no weapons or equipment on him.

Those two large, resilient fists alone, and the powerful aura they naturally exude, are enough to put immense pressure on any opponent.

Because he believed in the purest aesthetics of violence.

Extreme speed, unparalleled power, and impenetrable defense.

All fancy abilities are futile in the face of absolute physical prowess and domineering presence.

On the other side is Colonel Nahash, who comes from the world of Teigu.

He was tall and straight, with a handsome and calm face, and his short white hair was neatly combed.

It was as if what was about to take place was just an elegant fencing match.

He held a strangely shaped longsword in his hand.

'Imperial Arms' Abyssal Roar. The Dark Waves Descend.

Its blade is a deep, translucent blue, with what appears to be flowing water and starlight inside.

The sword guard is as magnificent and mysterious as an unfolded dragon wing.

Nahashu's eyes were calm and expressionless.

Only when looking at the Imperial Arm in his hand does he reveal a hint of barely perceptible focus.

This is the product of his accumulated battle merits last year, which he used to find the famous sword town to fuse the 'Imperial Arms' Super Power Burst Balzac and the 'Minister Arms' Water Dragon Sword, and further enhanced it with materials from the Namiwa Dragon and the Emerald Water Dragon.

Outside the dueling arena.

A man with a sharp, ruthless aura and a cold, stern face stood with his arms crossed.

It was General Onigumo of the Army Headquarters.

His sharp gaze was fixed on Nahashu.

Although his face was expressionless, his slightly taut jawline revealed his concern for the battle.

Dalmesia needs no introduction; he's been a comrade-in-arms for decades.

Nahashu was his adjutant, a capable assistant whom he had personally discovered and cultivated.

Onigumo deeply admired his calm mind, exceptional swordsmanship, and sense of responsibility.

At this moment, the floating ball device in the arena announced the start of the battle.

Knowing how formidable his opponent was, Nahashu launched the first attack without any probing.

With a flick of his wrist, the 'Netherwave Sword' emitted a faint hum.

Moisture in the air around the sword was instantly attracted and condensed, forming a rushing torrent of water.

The officers and soldiers outside the arena could tell at a glance that it was not only the power of an Imperial Arm, but also contained the true essence of the Water Breathing technique.

at the same time.

Nahashu swung his sword, unleashing a massive high-pressure water blade that hurtled towards Dalmesia.

"The scale of this flying slash"

"Great swordsman!"

Someone in the audience exclaimed, "He's only twenty-eight years old, isn't he?"

The Oni Spider, whose mouth no one dared approach within a three-meter radius, curled up slightly.

Among Nahashu's many outstanding talents, swordsmanship is arguably the most outstanding.

pity.

He is now facing Dalmesia.
