Chapter 289: The Sword field’s limits

This time, Roja’s order defied the world government. He even brought Fujitora with him. This was the same as a rebellion. Many thought that this wasn’t going to be any good for Roja.

However, the world government stayed silent. The power to destroy the Poneglyphs wasn’t a joking matter and it’s to their advantage as they couldn’t destroy them before.

For the time being, no one complained about Roja defying the world government’s orders.

As the time passed, this matter gradually subsided, but no one forgot about Roja’s power to destroy the stone.

Half a year later inside the headquarters, Roja sat quietly facing the sea, when suddenly opened his eyes.

“The Sword field’s range expanded to 20 meters… According to the fight against Shanks, the limit of this field should be 30 meters.”

Roja held Sen Maboroshi and felt the change in his power.

The top Swordsman in the world can tear the sea apart, and his sword field will allow him to control everything in it at will.

Shanks’ Haki was stronger than Roja’s. The last time, Roja relied on his swordsmanship, Haki, and Getsuga Tensho to beat Shanks’ strike.

Now Roja’s was undoubtedly stronger than Shanks, even if he doesn’t use the sword’s ability, such as fire and the other abilities, he can hold his ground and maybe even win.

“Shanks’ sword field’s range should be about 25 to 30 meters.”

Recalling the previous battle with shanks, almost very short and wasn’t as long as the battle with Rayleigh and Koshiro, but the experience gained wasn’t any less.

After comparing them, Roja concluded that Shanks’ was stronger. His sword was sharper.

Sharp isn’t an exact word to describe this, but there is an idiom that says, the sword is an extension to your heart.

One out of ten swordsmen can bring such sharpness to their sword, Rayleigh and Koshiro probably had such sharpness before but not touching the sword for a long time can make dissipate, this was the gap between them.

Roja’s swordsmanship kept on growing, and he discovered that the so-called sword field isn’t exactly a sword domain as it was too unstable.

Ten, Twenty, Thirty meters… There is no actual limit to its growth.

But the fluctuation of this power itself made it that it can’t surpass thirty meters by much.

What is the sword field?

It’s an area that allows the user to control everything within it and it can be considered a domain in some way. Some Grandmasters swordsman calls it a domain because in a sense they get it after reaching that level.

When it reaches thirty meters, the user can almost gasp everything from wind and grass, even the fluttering of the hair can be clearly perceived, but in the end, it’s not a complete domain.

It’s said that Kenbunshoku Haki is equal to seeing the things that are about to happen at it’s most powerful state. The range of this ability is large, but the sword field was too limited to be called a domain.

Therefore, if there is really a limit of 30 meters, then there is no way it can be called a domain.

Maybe Roja’s limits won’t be 30 meters as he is a Shinigami.

Roja blinked as he muttered and a smile was drawn on his face.

“I don’t know how strong Mihawk is…”

“His sword field should be 25 to 30 meters at least, maybe even 28 to thirty or even a stable 30 meters.”

The upper limit is 30 meters but the lower one is also very important. Even if it seems close to each other, the life and death of the swordsman can be determined by that small difference.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Mihawk can defeat Shanks. Shanks’ Haki is stronger than Roja’s. Roja couldn’t imagine that Mihawk’s Haki would be stronger than his.

At least now, when it comes to the comprehension of the way of the sword, no one can compare to Roja, and when comparing strength, no one could beat him even Whitebeard.

If Whitebeard at his peak can reach about 100 points in fighting strength, then Roja should have about 110 or 120.

After some thoughts, Roja sighed and the property bar appeared before him.

Half a year of practice coupled with the fight with Kaido and Shanks made him qualified to reach the next level.

In fact, the so-called practice was just him injecting Sen Maboroshi with Reiatsu repairing it and making it more suitable for his use.

However, it’s different than other Zanpakuto’s. Roja wanted to know it’s origin but without communicating with it, it’s almost impossible to know.
