<><><><><><>

The icy wind swirled around the battlefield, lifting shards of frost and stirring the robes of the three combatants. 

The atmosphere was tense, almost eerily calm, as none of them made the first move. They stood motionless, each watching for the slightest opening.

In the frozen expanse stood three of the world's greatest fighters.

Arashi, the final disciple of Marine hero Garp, had risen to prominence in a remarkably short time. 

Known for his astounding achievements, exceptional combat experience, and monstrous physical strength, he was a force to be reckoned with.

Sengoku, the "Buddha," renowned as a tactical genius, wielded the mythical Zoan powers of the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Buddha. His strength was unfathomable.

Zephyr, the "Black Arm," the Marine Headquarters' Chief Instructor, had trained countless Marine elites who went on to become legends themselves.

From a distant warship, Marines hurriedly set up transponder snails equipped with video feeds, aiming their cameras at the battlefield.

The tension was palpable. Despite the lack of action, the Marines aboard the ship could feel their hearts pounding.

"Are Admiral Sengoku and Zephyr going to fight Vice Admiral Arashi?"

"This will be a battle like no other," someone murmured, their throat tightening in anticipation.

Suddenly, a suffocating gust of wind swept across the battlefield. It felt as though the air had been sucked out of the atmosphere.

Everyone's eyes widened in shock as two overwhelming auras clashed violently. 

The collision of their Conqueror's Haki sent jagged cracks rippling across the ice.

"Conqueror's Haki collision!" a Marine gasped.

Then, with only a second or two of delay, the silence broke.

"Admiral Sengoku has moved!"

"The battle has begun!" an officer shouted, his forehead glistening with sweat.

A golden light burst forth in front of Arashi, revealing an immense, majestic figure—a golden Buddha radiating power and authority. 

The very air seemed to hum with a mysterious chant as Sengoku's transformation took centre stage.

"Zephyr!" Sengoku roared. "Let's go!"

With a deafening crack, Sengoku's golden legs bent, shattering the ice beneath him as he leapt high into the air. 

He thrust his massive palm downward, aiming at Arashi, who stood cloaked in crackling lightning.

"Shockwave!"

The golden palm descended, compressing the air around it with immense pressure. 

The sheer force was enough to bend Arashi's body under its weight.

"Urgh!" A mouthful of blood almost escaped Arashi's lips as his expression turned grim. 

Clenching his right fist, the black Seastone gloves he wore creaked under the strain, crackling with electric sparks.

With a powerful punch, he met the shockwave head-on.

"Boom!"

The collision distorted the air itself. The shockwave flattened and twisted under the impact, dispersing into a devastating ring of energy that shattered the surrounding ice.

But the assault wasn't over.

"Swish!"

Zephyr moved with blinding speed, appearing directly behind Arashi.

"Give it up, Arashi!" Zephyr's deep voice echoed as he drove a powerful punch toward his former student.

Arashi spun quickly, crossing his arms to block.

"Bang!"

The impact sent him skidding backwards across the ice, carving a long trail.

As Zephyr advanced again, Arashi raised his right hand, electricity surging through his fingers.

"200 Million Volts: Discharge!"

A barrage of lightning bolts shot toward Zephyr, who skillfully weaved through the storm of electricity, closing the distance between them in moments.

Arashi's pupils narrowed. Despite the overwhelming voltage, Zephyr's massive frame evaded the attacks with precision, appearing directly in front of him.

Another punch flew toward Arashi, who countered with a fist of his own.

"Not bad, Zephyr-sensei!" Arashi grinned, their punches colliding with a thunderous impact.

Sparks flew as their fists met, sending shockwaves rippling outward.

Before Arashi could catch his breath, a massive golden fist came crashing down toward him.

"Admiral Sengoku!"

Lightning sparked around Arashi as he dodged the attack.

"Boom!"

The ice within a kilometer radius shattered completely, exposing the turbulent seawater below. 

Broken icebergs were swallowed by waves as seawater surged upward. Arashi appeared on a distant section of ice, his expression grave. 

The combined pressure of two admirals was far greater than anything he had faced before.

He raised his right hand, fingers spread wide.

"800 Million Volts: Heaven's Wrath!"

A towering blue lightning spear shot toward Sengoku's golden Buddha form.

But to Arashi's astonishment, Sengoku simply waved his massive hand, deflecting the lightning spear into the sky. It disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, he vanished and reappeared before Zephyr, launching a barrage of punches. Zephyr laughed heartily, blocking each attack with his fists. 

After dozens of blows, Arashi twisted his body, raising his leg high and slamming it downward.

"Tempest Kick!"

But Zephyr met the attack with his leg, halting it mid-air.

"Rokushiki… I taught you those, Arashi!" Zephyr exclaimed.

Before Arashi could respond, Sengoku's massive golden palm came crashing down.

Arashi attempted to transform into lightning to evade, but the Buddha's enormous hand struck him squarely in the back.

"Urgh!" Blood spurted from Arashi's mouth as the impact drove him to the ground.

Zephyr hesitated, his next step faltering. Though this was a battle, his heart wavered—after all, Arashi was his student.

That moment of hesitation was all Arashi needed.

Raising his right hand, electric arcs coiled and surged, forming a ten-meter-long lightning spear.

Gripping the spear tightly, he infused it with Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki before thrusting it forward with all his might.

"Splatter!"

Blood sprayed as the spear pierced Sengoku's shoulder, forcing the massive Buddha form to stumble backwards.

Zephyr's expression darkened as he appeared instantly before Arashi, delivering a devastating punch to his face.

"Bang!"

Arashi's body twisted violently as he was hurled across the ice, crashing into the frozen ground in the distance.

"Are you all right, Sengoku?" Zephyr asked with a heavy tone.

"I'm fine!" Sengoku gritted his teeth, suppressing the pain as he yanked the lightning spear from his shoulder and tossed it aside.

"It's just a minor wound."

He turned to Zephyr, his voice stern. "But Zephyr, until we capture this brat, don't you dare hold back again! Remember our mission!"

Zephyr's expression froze for a moment before he gave a solemn nod.

Not far away, Arashi shook his head to clear the dizziness and slowly got back to his feet. 

Wiping the blood from his cheek, he glanced at the two figures in front of him.

"As expected of two admirals," he muttered with a wry smile. "So this is what the Golden Lion must have experienced back in the day."

His gaze sharpened as he focused intently on Sengoku and Zephyr. These two were in their prime—physically and in terms of combat ability. 

They were nothing like the versions of themselves twenty years later when age had begun to take its toll.

"Looks like this will take some effort," Arashi said softly, exhaling before raising his hand and pointing forward.

Arcs of electricity erupted from thin air, shooting toward the two admirals.

In response, Sengoku and Zephyr moved simultaneously, their figures darting across the ice with such speed that they left afterimages behind. 

Sengoku charged straight through the lightning without hesitation, showing no fear. In the blink of an eye, they closed the distance to Arashi.

"You're getting reckless!" Zephyr roared, his fists flying like a storm, each blow relentless and fierce.

Arashi took a deep breath, his fists crackling with black and red lightning as he struck back with equal ferocity.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of deafening impacts echoed across the battlefield, creating shockwaves that spread light and destruction over a vast area. 

The air around them shimmered with energy as the three clashed.

Sengoku's punches created rippling shockwaves with each strike, the force radiating outward in devastating arcs.

Even facing two admirals at once, Arashi held his ground. His punches met theirs head-on, creating craters in the ice with every exchange.

After several seconds of intense fighting, Sengoku's fist connected with Arashi's head, splitting his forehead open and leaving blood streaming down his face.

Dazed for a moment, Arashi gritted his teeth and retaliated with a fierce punch to Sengoku's face, sending the admiral reeling backwards with blood spraying from his nose.

Before Arashi could capitalize on the moment, Zephyr's knee drove into his abdomen.

"Urgh!" Arashi spat a mouthful of water as the blow forced the air from his lungs.

Without missing a beat, he raised his hand, summoning an enormous lightning pillar charged with 1 Billion Volts and unleashed it at point-blank range.

Zephyr's pupils contracted as he crossed his arms in front of him. 

His powerful Haki shielded him, holding back the intensely destructive lightning, though the ground beneath him cracked under the strain.

Dragged back several meters across the ice, Zephyr's body glowed red-hot, arcs of electricity dancing across his frame as smoke rose from his singed skin.

"The strongest offensive power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit!" Zephyr muttered, his body trembling slightly as he struggled to move.

By then, Sengoku had recovered.

"Don't forget our primary objective!" Sengoku bellowed, leaping high into the air.

His massive golden palm descended with a devastating Shockwave, striking Arashi directly.

"Boom!"

Even in his elemental state, Arashi couldn't fully evade the attack. So he can only bear the direct impact.

Zephyr seized the opportunity, appearing in front of Arashi in an instant. 

His right hand shot out, grabbing Arashi's arm, while his left hand produced a pair of Seastone cuffs, snapping them shut around Arashi's wrist.

"Click!"

The sequence happened so quickly that it was over in the blink of an eye. Arashi's right arm was bound with the Seastone shackles.

"We got him!" Sengoku exclaimed, his face lighting up briefly.

"Do you ever thought that how easy I am on you guys?"

But before Sengoku could celebrate, Arashi word made them both alert

"You guys really underastimate me."

As Arashi said that his sword had been drawn, cutting a graceful arc through the air.

In a shocking move, Arashi swung the blade downward, severing his wrist along with the Seastone shackles.

"Slash!"

Blood sprayed across the battlefield as the severed hand and cuffs fell to the ice with a crisp clang.

Time seemed to freeze.

"This kid…!"

"Is he insane?!" Sengoku's expression darkened as he glared at Arashi, his gaze heavy with an ominous intensity.

(T/N: In case you dont know, The seastone glove that Arashi wore is the outside layer of glove seperate from the main part of it.)
