Each conqueror had their own unique disposition that would lead them to take certain actions and make certain decisions that went along with their core beliefs and personalities.
Una had the belief that she would kill her enemy if given the chance to do so.
If she won a battle against them, then it was her right to end their life with her own hands.
She would expect the very same from her opponent if they were given the same opportunity.
If her opponent was not going to fight her with anything special to aid them, then she would not do anything that would be considered cheating.
If they pulled no dirty moves and did not play any tricks, then she would not resort to such methods.
That was the kind of belief she had toward such situations, especially since it had been influenced by the past experiences that had shaped her.
Those were the types of beliefs that had once allowed her to sail out onto the seas with her sister in a long-distant past, where she came to encounter so many allies and enemies.
That time had long since passed, but meeting Alyssia had somehow ignited those long-lost memories.
She remembered that among her companions of the past, there was a Mink who had joined her crew, but she had
Alyssia had made her feel nostalgic about that past while giving her a battle that had made her feel alive again.
Even if she were to die, she would have no regrets.
Perhaps she would not even regret letting her sister fall under the protection of such a person whom she had found out a lot about during their exchange.
It could be said that fighting was just another way of communicating and learning about each other.
Each movement made could often show what type of person they were in various ways.
As someone who had lived a very long life, she could see through Alyssia quite clearly enough to understand what type of character she had.
When conquerors clashed, it was not just a battle of strength.
There was much more to it, as it was a clash of willpower, ideals, beliefs and dreams.
Who won in that clash would end up being the victor, and they would be the ones to prove that they were in the right.
History was a very solid thing to prove that such a way of thinking was very true in many ways.
The victor was usually the one to leave their mark on history and to shape it as they pleased.
If Alyssia won the battle between them, then it would be like telling her that perhaps her way of doing things had not been the right way despite the beliefs she had held onto for so long.
It was not like she was willing to change her mind after being defeated, but she was more open to listening to Alyssia, who had chosen to spare her life and dignity when she was most vulnerable.
Una took out the cross necklace from around her neck and undid the top of it, resulting in her healing and regaining some of the energy that had been used up.
While her fires could regenerate her body quite strongly, they would not return the energy that had been lost.
The water was quite different in its properties, so it was much better for her to choose to drink it and to pour some onto her body to recover in that way rather than use up what little energy she had to try to heal from her wounds.
Doing so would only make her pass out again from all the accumulated fatigue, and it was more likely that she would not recover much from her injuries with the amount of fire she could use to try to heal herself.
Once she was healed, she climbed to her feet and motioned Alyssia to follow. "Come to my palace. We should talk."
Alyssia followed Una to the palace while she continued to contemplate the fight and the insights that she had gained.
If there was one thing she came to learn, then it was how various forms of power or states usually granted greater potential for combat, but they came at a greater cost.
Using certain powers drained more of her stamina, just as using Haki would drain her Haki the more she used it.
Her battle had let her grasp the usage a lot better than she had used them previously.
She could use it more effectively in the future, while being able to use it far more efficiently with less waste.
That meant that she could be able to fight for longer without tiring herself out.
If there was something that helped her to keep fighting without running out of energy during the fight despite using up massive amounts of Electro, then it was thanks to her Electro core that had been implanted in her body, granting her double the amount of Electro that could be used.
She considered how she would like to work on her techniques and how she would like to make use of the research she had worked on so far.
Pure power sounded good in many ways, but the more power she gained, the more it could be a drain on her energy during times when she used it.
She couldn't help but think about how there could be times when she would be without food and would be tired out, or that she was worn down by multiple opponents.
Perhaps her body could be tough enough to let her survive all kinds of things, but it would not be completely invincible without the ability to use her Haki during such a vulnerable moment.
If she were surrounded by powerful people who could match her level when she could not use her Electro and Haki or whatever power she could have, then she would become a much easier target.
She couldn't help but think about what she had seen in the manga of One Piece before she had arrived in the present world, where she had been reincarnated.
If she had such strong endurance, then others would keep hitting her relentlessly, just like how Kaido would take hits without needing to fight back.
Whether he was in his normal state or in his dragon form, he would usually not fight back until he dealt the last blow, ending the fight.
It would usually be his opponents who would end up using up most of their energy to try to cause some damage to him.
Even if someone had a very strong body, making them capable of achieving powerful feats of strength, there would still be times in their life when they would be in a weakened state.
While in such a state, even if they had more of a tougher body that would allow them to live through being attacked, it did not mean that they would not be worn down further and would not accumulate injuries.
It was still quite possible that in such a state, it would become easier to restrain or trap them in various ways.
Alyssia thought about how survival would be the goal she would have when it came to making those kinds of future decisions.
She would take a route that would increase the odds of her survival so that she would not be so weak, even in her most vulnerable state.
If she wanted to be able to avoid running out of energy so easily, then she needed to be able to have enough stamina to be able to fight for longer and to be able to have enough for heavier power usages.
It was also possible that certain power usages could be negated or not be usable in certain situations or against certain foes, making her not able to make use of them and having to rely more on her physical body, Haki and techniques than anything.
