One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger.

Oden stood in the center of the crowd, his figure like a taut bowstring, full of fighting spirit.

His eyes were sharp, shooting straight at Jin, his hands playing with the dual swords, waving them up and down.

The surrounding pirates cheered and waited for Jin's reply, as they hadn't seen anything so interesting in a long time.

"Haha, it seems like brother Oden wants to show off his real skills!" one of the pirates shouted loudly.

After that, laughter and clamor rose and fell, forming a unique symphony on the deck.

Jin was not affected by this atmosphere, and there was not a trace of contempt on his face.

The pirates' cheers and jeers, like waves, crashed against the heavy cabin, adding a bit of frenzy to the already tense atmosphere.

Jin stood alone in a slightly empty spot, his eyes piercing through the chaotic crowd, tightly locked on Oden.

Oden, like a volcano about to erupt, although without words, Jin could feel a sense of oppression emanating from Oden.

This sense of oppression was like a tangible substance, seeming to make the air thick.

In the eyes of the pirates, this was just a battle for entertainment, but for Jin, it was a real confrontation.

Oden walked slowly closer, each step like throwing a stone into the quiet sea, stirring up layers of ripples.

At this moment, the air between the two seemed to be cut by an invisible force, all the sounds became distant and blurred, leaving only their eye contact and the rhythm of their heartbeats.

The pirates surrounding them seemed to feel this unusual atmosphere as well, their clamor gradually subsided, and all eyes focused on the battle about to unfold.

Amidst the pirates' gradually quieting shouts, Jin slowly stood up.

A faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth, a smile that was gentle and full of confidence, as if he had already foreseen the outcome of the battle.

The watching pirates looked forward to this scene, eager to witness the moment the battle began.

And in this atmosphere, Jin became more and more calm, his movements as he stood up were unhurried, calmly responding to the situation before him.

"In this situation, I can't refuse," Jin said in a voice that seemed to be a soliloquy, but was clearly heard all around.

Then, his eyes locked on Oden.

To be honest, Jin also had a curiosity about Oden's strength in his heart.

He wanted to know what level Oden's strength had reached, and what kind of sparks could be produced in the battle.

In the arena, the momentum of the two men was like a tide, each wave higher than the last, reaching straight into the clouds.

In this atmosphere where the signs were already apparent, even Rayleigh and the others who were enjoying their leisure and holding wine glasses couldn't help but turn their attention to these two people.

Their laughter and chatter gradually stopped, replaced by a strong expectation.

In their view, although Jin had reached the rank of Vice Admiral at this age, he was already considered a genius, but they did not think he could compete with Oden.

Jin didn't pay attention to the pirates' gazes, and a fiery fighting spirit surged in his eyes.

With a grip of his palm, the Yanling Saber directly appeared with a wave of oppressive aura, and then, black Haki completely covered the entire blade.

"Not bad Haki, just right as an opponent."

Looking at the black sword in Jin's hand, Oden's eyes flashed, discovering the opponent's powerful Armament Haki.

"Clang!"

As soon as Oden finished speaking, an excited smile appeared on his face. Without any extra words, he took two steps, and the two swords at his waist were directly drawn out into his hands, slashing down at Jin as fast as lightning. Under the blade, the air seemed to turn into a tangible object.

"Bang!!!"

The two sides' attacks collided, and the heavy force from the Yanling Saber made Jin's eyes slightly stiff, obviously not expecting the other party's strength to be so powerful.

The light of the swords intertwined, and the two were competing with their majestic strength and the skills of their moves.

Circles of air waves swept out, tearing the clouds into cracks.

"Clang!"

Jin suddenly stepped forward, and the Yanling Saber in his hand slashed down with great force.

The blade swept across the sky, almost imperceptible to the naked eye in the dark night.

Oden's eyes showed a sharp light, without the slightest evasion, he held the two swords in front of him to block Jin's attack.

Jin stepped back slightly, his speed was not very fast, taking advantage of Oden's lack of reaction, he slashed horizontally with his sword, but it was more powerful than the previous one.

"Bang!!!"

In the muffled sound, Oden flew out backwards, rolling several times in the clouds.

Oden stood up with his two swords, "Oops, I was careless, let's do it again!"

Two figures flickered in this blurred light.

Jin's breathing was heavy and regular, and each exhalation formed a white mist in the cold air.

Oden stared intently at each of the opponent's small movements, ready to counterattack at any time.

The hilts of the swords held tightly by the two were already wet with sweat, and the blades collided with each other, making a harsh metallic friction sound, and the surrounding air seemed to be vibrating.

Although they had been fighting for a long time, the two still did not mean to relax at all.

Jin's movements were fast and precise, and every swing of his sword sought to hit the vital point directly.

Oden refused to be outdone, his swordsmanship was like a storm, fierce and continuous.

The rhythm of the two people's offense and defense was tight, and the lightning-like sword strikes made the onlookers feel dazzled.

Rayleigh looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, and turned to look at Buggy beside him.

Buggy had already opened his mouth wide, forgetting to swallow the wine in his mouth, which flowed down the corner of his mouth.

"This is a Vice Admiral? I'd believe you if you told me he was an Admiral."

Before Oden was on Roger's ship, he was the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' Second Division. His strength had already reached the Emperor level. Although it was just a sparring match and he didn't use his full strength, it could still be seen that Jin's strength was considerable.

Only a loud "clang" was heard.

The mutually resisting forces forced both of them to take a few steps back and stabilize their bodies.

In the midst of panting, the bright moonlight shone through the clouds, adding a touch of peace to this tense duel.

The air was quiet at this moment.

"Hiss…"

The Roger Pirates were dumbfounded, and the food and wine in their hands were scattered all over the ground.

But at this moment, no one paid attention to the wasted wine.

Their eyes were fixed on the figures of Jin and Oden.

After all, Oden's reputation was well-known on the sea, and the crew members were well aware of the swordsman's power.

Several of them frowned and pondered, unable to calm down.

Under Captain Roger, they considered themselves to be the elite among the elites on the sea, however, they had never seen anyone who could contend with Oden so skillfully.

Jin's almost sudden speed, and the strength of each slash, made the watching crew members sweat.

Roger himself stood at the forefront of the crowd, his expression calm and deep, gently stroking his beard with one hand.

There was both admiration and a hint of imperceptible surprise in his eyes.

That guy Oden didn't use too much power, but it far exceeded the strength of an ordinary Vice Admiral.

He only had recognition of Jin in terms of his temperament before, but now, he also acknowledged the other party's strength.
