"What a fierce battle. Two Devil Fruit Awakened users and two Conqueror’s Haki users. Heh heh heh. This is a spectacle."
Hidden in the clouds high above, Aeridar watched the intense clash between Doflamingo and Caesar, "Tsk-tsking" and comnting to himself. A battle of this magnitude was rare in the world.
The area within a kiloter radius around Doflamingo and Caesar had been turned into a battlefield of strings and glass. The fortress wall behind them had completely crumbled.
The area was a forbidden zone. Not only were ordinary soldiers banned from entering, but even powerhouses like Elroy, Pica, and Vito didn’t dare to approach. No one could set foot in that area, because everyone who had was buried by either string or glass.
However, staying out of the zone didn’t guarantee safety.
For example, Caesar’s sword slashes could easily cut through hundreds of ters of ground, and it was normal for them to miss and hit the battlefield.
As for Doflamingo, his Overheat whip could easily reach and slice buildings several kiloters away in half, nearly spanning the entire battlefield. Countless soldiers and officers were killed by random attacks.
On the battlefield below, Caesar shouted, "Kill him, my guards! Hardened Glass Guard!" He waved his sword, and the glass ground around him surged, revealing more than ten glass guards with weapons that charged forward.
Pssh!
Doflamingo turned and kicked, slicing a glass guard holding a long-handled battle axe in half.
Athlete!
"You annoying pests! Get out of my way! Ocean: White Wave!"
Doflamingo roared in frustration, waving both hands upward. The entire ground turned into an ocean of surging white waves made of strings. Countless tentacle-like white lines erged, wrapping around every living thing on the "sea" and crushing the more than ten glass guards.
"Hm?!"
Suddenly, Aeridar felt a premonition. His face changed as he watched the battle below. Just now, a vision had flashed in his mind.
"What was that?"
Aeridar was shocked, his eyes filled with confusion. The vision had been too quick. He only saw a floating island descending.
"Future sight? Or sothing else?" Aeridar was a little confused. This was the first ti this had happened to him. It was too sudden. If it was future sight, the vision was too blurry. But if it wasn’t, what was it?
"Huh?!"
Suddenly, Aeridar shivered, and his head snapped to the side as another vision flashed in his mind.
Aeridar tried to recall the vision he just had, his brows furrowed. "Are those... two swords? They look so familiar!"
However, Aeridar had confird sothing. He had gained the ability to see the future. He didn’t know if it was because his Observation Haki had reached its peak or for so other reason.
In the world of One Piece, Aeridar wasn’t the only one with this ability. Charlotte Katakuri, the second son of the Charlotte Family, and Mada Shyarly from Fish-Man Island also had it.
Katakuri’s ability to see the future was a result of his strong Observation Haki, a skill he developed through training. So what was the reason for Mada Shyarly? Was it a natural talent?
The ability to see the future was rare in any world. For instance, in the world of Naruto, the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku and the priestesses of the Land of Demons had this ability. Even the Six Paths Sage and Kaguya Otsutsuki didn’t have it.
The reason for the Great Toad Sage’s ability was unknown, but the priestess’s was clearly a talent that could even be inherited through bloodlines.
Similarly, in the world of Saint Seiya, Saints who have awakened their Sixth Sense gained various superpowers, including future sight. This was also a result of training.
Aeridar didn’t know what had caused his new ability. But he wasn’t in the mood to dwell on it. The floating island and the two familiar swords in his visions made him think of soone.
"So it’s Golden Lion... Heh," Aeridar said, licking his lips and looking around the sky. But he didn’t see anything other than clouds. "Is he hiding in a cloud? I should look for him and see if this sudden ability is real."
A strange smile crept onto his face. Aeridar no longer watched the battle below. He flew away, activating his Observation Haki to its maximum, searching like a human radar.
The battlefield was full of massive craters, as if it had been hit by small teors.
"Hah... hah... hah..."
Flying a dozen ters off the ground, Bright Ward panted heavily, flapping the wings on his back. His forehead was covered in sweat, and there was a noticeable whip mark on his left cheek that was bleeding.
"How... can that woman be so strong?" Below Ward, Gladius clutched his left arm, blood flowing from it. His long trench coat was also in tatters.
"I can’t believe you actually injured . I underestimated you two." A three to four-centiter cut appeared on Katrina’s right cheek. She stuck out her pink tongue and licked the blood from her face.
Snap!
Katrina cracked her whip in the air, then looked at the rips in her clothes, her face turning cold. "It seems I can’t hold back anymore. Ward, I’m going to kill you right now!"
"Tch, she’s ignoring . How infuriating!" Gladius stared at Katrina, a vein popping on his forehead.
"Hmph... Don’t talk so tough, you foolish woman," Ward said, gritting his teeth. "Today, only one of us will leave here alive!"
With that, Ward waved the long spear in his hand. A rectangular sheet of white paper, several ters long, flew out, slicing through the air like a sharp blade.
Paper Paper: Blade!
Pssh!
Katrina’s body flashed, and she dodged. The giant rock behind her was instantly sliced in half, the cut perfectly smooth.
Whoosh!
In the next mont, a silver flash flew at her, fast as lightning.
Clang!
Ward blocked with his spear, but the tip of the whip struck it with such force that it sent him flying.
Tumbling a few tis in the air, Ward stopped by flapping his wings. He imdiately waved his hand, and dozens of paper shurikens, made of stacked sheets of paper, appeared beside him. They rained down on Katrina below.
Paper Shuriken: Rain!
