The moment both sides' Haoshoku Haki clashed, the dark clouds above Greenery Island were instantly dispersed from the middle by the two forces of Haoshoku Haki.
Sunlight poured through the gaps where the clouds had scattered, illuminating the island and bringing a long-awaited warmth.
"Heavens, the sky has split!!"
"What on earth is happening? How can such terrifying aura appear on Greenery Island?"
"It's Haoshoku Haki! Two powerful Haoshoku Haki users are clashing!"
"Run, that tremor is too strong, we might die!"
"..."
Although Nox and Redfield did not intentionally target the people on the island,
as the clash of Haoshoku Haki began, the overflowing Haoshoku Haki was still something ordinary people couldn't withstand.
Many people on the half of the island closer to Nox and them were knocked unconscious by this wave of Haoshoku Haki.
Some people with background, strength, and the ability to withstand Haoshoku Haki were rushing towards the location where the Haoshoku Haki was erupting, carrying cameras and den den mushi.
They desperately wanted to know who was fighting on this island.
As for those people, neither Nox nor Redfield paid them any mind, because those clowns couldn't affect them at all.
Moreover, this is the New World. Even if their identities were discovered, so what?
The New World is the Rocks Pirates' home ground. Last time, Kong went to the War Without End Country in the New World to capture Nox.
After Rocks found out, he immediately sent people to attack the Marine's stronghold in the New World, directly destroying another stronghold.
While Nox and Redfield were clashing with their Haoshoku Haki, some people on Greenery Island were already watching from a distance.
Many had even turned on the recording function of their den den mushi, recording this scene.
Among them was a Marine Rear Admiral named Taro Goshu, dressed in civilian clothes.
"Reporting to Fleet Admiral, I have discovered the whereabouts of Rocks Pirates Executive Officer Nox on Greenery Island. He is clashing with a Pirate using Haoshoku Haki. I have turned on the recording function. Please receive it, Fleet Admiral."
Marine Rear Admiral Taro Goshu hurriedly transmitted the message to Marine Headquarters.
"Rear Admiral Taro, please continue recording while ensuring your own safety."
Naval Fleet Admiral Brak received Taro's video and said sternly, then immediately summoned the Marine Vice Admirals who were in Marineford to come and watch together.
"What powerful Haoshoku Haki. I didn't expect that one's Sword Intent could also be integrated into Haoshoku Haki."
Redfield said in surprise. If it were just about the intensity of Haoshoku Haki, Redfield was definitely not inferior to Nox.
But Nox integrated Sword Intent into his Haoshoku Haki, raising his Haoshoku Haki to a higher level, thus suppressing Redfield's Haoshoku Haki.
"Hahahaha, this is just a little experiment of mine. I haven't fully integrated the Sword Intent yet."
"Redfield, I can sense that you are also a powerful Grand Swordmaster. When the time comes, you can also try to integrate Sword Intent into your Haoshoku Haki."
Nox said proudly after gaining an advantage in the Haoshoku Haki clash.
"I can't compare to you in Haoshoku Haki, so let me see how your swordsmanship is!"
Perhaps it was because he lost the Haoshoku Haki clash, which was very irritating for Redfield, who had never lost before.
After retracting his Haoshoku Haki, he rushed over, holding the bat umbrella sword in his hand.
The Red Count's swordsmanship contained incredibly terrifying killing intent.
Streaks of sword light formed in an instant, and the illusions of the bat umbrella sword surged and fell.
With such fast swordsmanship, Nox's eyes could no longer keep up with the opponent's speed, and he could only use Kenbunshoku Haki to sense the trajectory of the opponent's sword.
As expected, under the perception of Kenbunshoku Haki, Nox clearly saw the attack trajectory of the bat umbrella sword.
"Good timing!"
Seeing this, Nox also retracted his Haoshoku Haki, holding the Seven Star Sword to block the Red Count's attack.
At the same time, Nox unleashed his own Limitless Sword Style and engaged in a swordsmanship battle with the Red Count.
"Clang clang clang!!!"
The speed of their swords was extremely fast. In just three seconds, they had already exchanged dozens of blows.
The Red Count's swordsmanship was very fast, ruthless, and accurate. Almost every attack was aimed at the weaknesses of Nox's swordsmanship.
It can be said that this kind of swordsmanship is very troublesome and makes one feel very frustrated.
If combined with the Red Count's Mind Reading, this type of swordsmanship is simply the bane of many people, making them feel like they have power but nowhere to use it.
When fighting the Red Count, the Red Count's Mind Reading was useless against Nox, so Nox did not feel the sensation of being countered by Mind Reading.
All he felt was admiration and awe for the Red Count's swordsmanship.
Nox's own swordsmanship originated from the Limitless Sword Style. After his own improvements and optimizations, it had gradually become concise from its original extremely cumbersome and complex form.
While fighting the Red Count, Nox was also rapidly absorbing the essence of the Red Count's swordsmanship and integrating it into his own swordsmanship.
And the Red Count was doing the same. As a monster, his learning ability can be said to be top-notch. What Nox was doing, he was also doing.
In this World, Great Swordsmen are too rare. Being able to clash with another Grand Swordmaster and reflect on one's own swordsmanship is something every Grand Swordmaster yearns to do.
Because only by doing so can their swordsmanship improve faster.
"Is this the swordsmanship of a Grand Swordmaster? It's too strong!!!"
"This is amazing! Record it, we must record the entire battle of these two Great Swordsmen. This is an incredibly precious treasure for Swordsmen all over the World!!"
"Who is that Grand Swordmaster clashing swords with Nox? Does anyone know?"
"..."
What Nox and the Red Count didn't know was that this swordsmanship clash between two Great Swordsmen was being watched by countless forces in the World.
They also didn't know that in the future, countless Swordsmen would break through to the Sword Master realm by watching their battle videos.
"Hahahaha, Redfield, your swordsmanship is very strong, it's making me excited!"
"You'll have to hold on now!!"
Being able to encounter a Grand Swordmaster who is evenly matched with him, Nox was extremely excited at this moment.
You know, ever since he set sail, the opponents he faced were either too weak or too strong. He had never fought against an opponent whose strength was similar to his.
When he first fought John, he was too weak and couldn't win.
Later, when he fought Hannyabal, that guy seemed to be holding back, which made him very frustrated.
