One Piece: Tale Of An Unparalleled Legend

Lincoln was staring calmly at the man In front of him, the man was aged with snow white hair and a well maintained beard .His scars on his fists and arms showed his experience in battle and his wrinkled skin showed his old age .he held a rapier and he held it like he had done it at least a billion times before , his eyes were sharp and his whole demeanor were that of a man a soldier who had spent all his life in battle and hardships .....this man is the legend who has spread great feats of strength all around the world and his name strikes fear to everyone against him and warmth to everyone with him ...this man is fleet admiral claro 'Leo ' black and he is about to fight with all his might to end the person before him ,the blade of heaven Edward Lincoln .

"old man I respect you greatly ,to have used the right time and helped people when they needed and to not lose Their support for you ...so I Edward Lincoln am honored to fight you even though in this we are enemies who want each others head .....let the stronger one survive "

"I look forward to fighting you young man,and as a sign of respect for your strength I will call you by your name and not some nickname, and I claro black am honored to fight you too ...let the stronger one prevail"

and as soon as those words were spoken both sides dashed towards each other at light speed creating a huge sound .

Lincoln swung his Naginata and claro thrusted his rapier , the result was a huge eruption of haki as they were about to hit each others weapons as the surrounding area ,the salt plaza as well as the marine ford plaza floor started cracking and the land started rising due to the force of the clash .

Lincoln then blocked a thrust to his throat while he kicked claro making him fall back . claro looked stoic and if it wasn't for the small smile on his face you would have thought that he wasn't having fun .

claro started using his devil fruit , he has eaten one of the strongest paramecia fruit in existence , also it is a special paramecia because due to him using it for his entire life he has awakened it and it allows him to control everything that has carbon in it like carbon dioxide and monoxide and chlorofluorocarbons which are extremely harmful to living beings . add that to having the ȧssortment of the strongest materials in the world he is really really strong .

Lincoln took his masamune and started attacking claro with sword intent attacks but claro dodged them easily . claro tried to have as less body contact with Lincoln as possible and thrusted his rapier aiming at all his vital spots .

lincoln while dodging a stab from claro let out his haki pushing claro away from his hand reach .

"lets turn this up a notch eh ? " lincoln asked while readying him self ,claro just nodded and his battle intent burst forth taking the shape of a mighty lion with night black hair and golden eyes surrounded by a golden aura in majesty .

lincoln let out his battle intent which took the form of a tiger showing its canines and a dragon surrounding surrounding the tiger .

they both once again dashed towards each other and started fighting . with Lincoln using his masamune and claro thrusted his nigrum leonis [black lion in latin ] , the sword clashed again and again messing with the sea waves.

"*whistle * pretty fancy stuff you got there "

claro uses his wings to fly and appear beside Lincoln in a blink ,Lincoln bent backwards dodging the rapier he countered it by grabbing claros hand , pulling him closer and punching him straight on the gut which made claro spit out saliva and fly back blurring away .

Lincoln then started running towards the injured claro but the marines and knights came forward to give claro time to recuperate and gain his stamina .

Lincoln snorted and took out his Naginata . and position himself he then in one smooth motion disappeared and appeared behind the incoming marines and knights . all the marines and knights fell to the ground with Their heart missing and heads cut off cleanly .

he swung his Naginata again but this time a collision happened since claro had appeared and stomped his foot on top of the Naginata and he thrusted his rapier again while Lincoln parried it again and again .

sheathing his rapier claro crouched and formed an attack which gave off a weird vibe for Lincoln so he leapt backwards with his Naginata positioned to attack at any moment .

claro seeing this grinned and disappeared and before Lincoln could do anything a transparent energy ball hit Lincoln on his guts making him puke copious amounts of blood but the attack wasn't over yet .the attack started gaining intensity and Lincoln couldn't escape it.and it finally ended with a huge boom from where Lincoln appeared with blood all over his ċhėst and a mad grin on his lips .

claro controlled carbon dioxide and made it attack Lincoln ,he dodged and claro appeared again with his hand in a diamond encasing.

Lincoln titled his head and flipped over to give claro a kick again which made more cracks on his face and he flew away .

Lincoln cracked his his knuckles and followed claro to what he expected to be a beat-down but he froze in track and he couldn't move , claro had his fist clenched in a specific way , showing he had reached superior manipulation of ki than Lincoln.

Lincoln smiled at the attack and burst himself from the restriction of ki by just moving his arms . and just as he was about to leap towards claro he saw that in a blink of the eye claro had appeared before him and grabbed his head and dragging him at supersonic speeds , so fast that Lincolns body started getting on fire. and claro made a huge mountain range in the middle of the sea made out of diamond and thrusted him through all 23 mountains completely and utterly destroying the mountains .

what claro didn't know was that Lincoln was a practitioner of body arts specifically the diamond body so this had just increased the body toughness but in the expense of unimaginable hurt which would have made even the strongest people beg for a early death . but Lincoln held on which resulted in his defense going up drastically but having fatal injuries .

both claro and Lincoln was fatally injured and their willpower was the only thing clinging them onto life .

"let us seal the deal with the next attack " claro said while his golden cracks started glowing , Lincoln nodded while taking both his weapons

their aura clashed and grabbed the attention of the whole marine ford .and creating huge gusts of wind , the marines still had hope even after losing around 400,000 soldiers and three admirals they thought that they still have their fleet admiral and commander and chief .

claro used all his stamina in his reserves to make a giant being made out of all the types of materials he can make with wings made of carbon dioxide .

Lincoln looked at the towering being it was supposed to make him intimidated but it served the opposite , Lincoln was grinning like he got the best whiskey in the world , his battle intent burst forth and it formed a huge dragon body with the face of a tiger.

'" ABSOLUTE SERIES : UNSTOPPABLE ANNIHILATION "

the whole salt plaza Allen made was in ruins and the whole sky was dark as if mourning for claros death .claro was in Lincolns arms , lifeless . he looked at Allen and he nodded , a tendril of salt came and picked him up from Lincolns arms , even though it tried to attack Lincoln it didn't even penetrate his skin.

the whole marine ford was in chaos due to all the life lost and all the suffering soldiers .

Lincoln smiled sadistically and formed another attack which killed another 89,000 soldiers adding to their misery . Lincoln regrouped with Roger and his pops and started cutting through marines along with Rayleigh and Gaban
