On the other side of the Island,
Bang!
Two swords and a fist clashed, both coated in Armament Haki and containing immense power. As they clashed, they generated a strong wind around them.
Zoro pulled back and dashed forward while swinging his swords from top to bottom.
Seeing this, the CP0 agent raised his leg and blocked the strike, before pushing him to the side and kicking him once more.
Although he managed to push Zoro away, Zoro quickly moved forward and slashed with his three swords.
As three swords slashed forward, three different sword slashes, they combined into one massive sword slash and charged forward.
[Three Swords Style]
[Three Hundred and Sixty Caliber Phoenix]
The blue sword slash took less than a second to reach the enemy. Even CP0 agent didn't expect Zoro to release such a slash at such a close distance.
Facing such an attack, he had no choice but to rely on greater power to block it.
He crossed his fingers together and swiped them forward. As he swung his hand, he generated a massively growing wind slash.
Bang!
A sword slash and a wind slash collided in the middle, creating a powerful influx of energy. The shockwave raging out from the collision shattered the ground into cubes.
It sent several things flying while Zoro and the CP0 agent stuck their feet on the ground.
'A Devil Fruit user? Wind type? Is it Logia? Let's test it out!'
Zoro instantly realized the power used by the CP0 agent and rushed forward. He cut through any shockwave generated by the collision and jumped.
As the collision stopped, his body rushed toward the CP0 agent at high speed, making it almost impossible to dodge.
While in mid-air, Zoro started spinning and forming a ball shape with his swords. As his body approached the ground, he let out a relentless slash.
[Three Swords Style]
[Leopard Spinning Shot]
Splash!
Although the CP0 agent tried to dodge it, his speed wasn't enough to dodge multiple sword slashes that Zoro released from mid-air.
Some of them managed to cut through his skin.
As Zoro landed on the ground, he raised his head and spoke.
"So, you are not a Logia Devil Fruit user. But you can control the wind. It is certainly a powerful ability."
The CP0 agent didn't speak. He stared at his wound and realized just how much he had underestimated Zoro.
Their Haki was almost equal. Zoro's swordsmanship was a massive boost in strength, just like his Devil Fruit.
In terms of physical strength, Zoro wasn't weaker than him. The only advantage he might have would be speed.
But even that wouldn't remain much of an advantage in this kind of battle.
"If I want to take you down, I must use more power."
[Thousand Faces of Wind]
The CP0 agent conjured a small whirlwind around him and threw all of them towards Zoro.
As they moved, they kept attracting more air from the surroundings to make themselves bigger and better.
"An attack of this level. I can only counter it with that attack."
Zoro took this attack very seriously. He wasn't sure just how much the wind could pierce his skin. If it were a small wound, he could recover quite quickly.
But if it became a massive wound, it would hinder his performance in the upcoming war.
Knowing this, he coated his swords with Armament Haki and spun. As he spun, he created a powerful tornado around him.
[Three Swords Style]
[Black Robe Dragon Twister]
As he spun with such speed, he created so much force into his tornado that it was almost five times bigger than the upcoming whirlwind.
Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack!
As those whirlwinds approached him, they were split into several pieces by his tornado.
Not a single whirlwind managed to pass through it or even move him. As they were destroyed, the air dispersed into the surroundings and made Zoro's tornado even stronger.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
With the Tornado around him, Zoro ran towards the CP0 agent. His speed, almost faster than CP0 could react.
Like a fast and invisible wind, Zoro instantly reached the CP0 agent and engulfed him within the tornado.
[Great Tornado]
Seeing the attack engulfing him, the CP0 agent released a massive tornado that could rival Zoro's attack.
Even if he didn't want to use this attack so easily, he had no choice but to do it. After all, Zoro's attack would've seriously injured him.
Zoro twisted his hand and took a stance in the middle of the collision of two tornadoes.
The power of these two attacks was so high that they were literally shaking the ground.
The dust and debris from their previous attacks had risen from the collision.
The moment the shockwave from the collision began to slow down, Zoro dashed forward with his top speed.
Three swords gleamed with shining purple light under the coverage of his Armament Haki, forming a firm coating around his swords.
As he moved, the wind produced a powerful sound. Even without that sound, CP0 agent predicted all of his movements.
The problem was that Zoro was too fast.
Unless he was willing to take the hit, he couldn't dodge this attack.
Facing such a situation, the CP0 agent took a deep breath and released a massive amount of air from his mouth.
This wasn't just the air he sucked in but also the air he could generate from his body.
His Kaze-Kaze No Mi allowed him to generate and manipulate wind. Unlike Logia, he couldn't turn into wind.
But being able to generate wind, he was capable of causing massive destruction with hurricanes and tornadoes.
But he was a part of the Cipher Poll Organization. This organization worked as an assassin unit. They were a part of the World Government that could do any kind of dirty work for them.
Naturally, he couldn't develop his devil to achieve powerful destruction because of this.
So, he focused on another part of the wind.
It's sharpness. He focused on it so much that now a small part of his wind could cut through boulders.
This Wind Sphere was compressed air that had tiny threads of wind needles spinning in different directions.
Zoro also sensed this attack and instantly used his three swords against it.
[Three Swords Style]
[Purgatory Oni Giri]
Whoosh! Bang! Boom!
Zoro tore through the wind sphere and rushed towards the CP0 agent. Behind him, the wind sphere exploded into a massive storm, creating several small wind needles that flew everywhere.
Facing those wind needles, especially on his back, Zoro had no choice but to turn round and swing all three of his swords.
[Three Swords Style]
[Black Robe Dragon Twister]
Creating a smaller-scale tornado, he managed to pull those wind needles into the tornado and disperse them.
But the CP0 agent wasn't going to watch all of this. He was waiting for Zoro to make a mistake.
And when he did, CP0 agent took advantage of it without any question. Before Zoro could even turn around, the CP0 agent had already rushed forward.
With his speed as fast as teleportation, he appeared behind Zoro and pushed his Index Finger forward.
Strangely enough, Zoro dodged it.
With his back facing the enemy, Zoro dodged the attack.
This stunned the CP0 agent for a moment. But he didn't seem to have given up. He started sending a barrage of index fingers, releasing powerful and sharp attacks one after another.
Each attack had the power to destroy a house.
But Zoro dodged almost all of them. He got scratched or even stabbed a few times.
But only at the beginning. Zoro didn't understand why this man suddenly kept using the same move on different parts of his body.
He didn't care.
He only knew that this man was helping him understand the Future Sight. It wasn't as strong as Luffy's and Liam's.
But with this awakening, he was almost at the same level as Sanji in terms of Observation Haki.
Suddenly, he swung his sword.
The CP0 agent perceived the attack and quickly dodged it. He retreated several meters before stopping to look at Zoro.
'This guy used Observation Haki. That wasn't a Devil Fruit or normal intuition. It was a scary Observation.'
'He has managed to learn an advanced form of Observation Haki; Future Sight.'
'Now, the question is how can I fight him?'
