36 Marineford war part 3 (1/2)

”Hahahaha now then, Luffy should be going to Ace around now and Garp would be there too.” Rei said as he flew upwards overlooking the whole battlefield.

”hmm kizaru won't be able to use his fruit to cut the key to Ace's shackles anymore.” Rei said in realization.

”Let's bring Sengoku away first.”

Flying towards Sengoku, Rei created a ice lance from his palm as it thrusted towards Sengoku. Colliding with Sengoku's haki coated arms Rei pushed him away from the platform.

”Yo Ace! See ya soon!” Rei called out as he passed Ace.

*BANG!

The grounds cracked as Sengoku stood up from the impact.

”Yo Sengoku, i'll occupy you for a little while...” Rei said as he flew towards Sengoku swinging Taema at him. Dodging easily with observation haki Sengoku punched towards Rei's face. Quickly bringing Taema's hilt guard upwards, Rei blocked the punch. Digging his heels into the ground he stopped himself shooting off like a cannon ball before he twisted the hilt guard causing Sengoku's arm to go upwards. Following the motion, Rei cleaved the blade upwards creating a azure sword energy which is about to cut into Sengoku.

However, just before it hit, Sengoku had transformed into a golden budda rendering the attack useless.

”Oi oi, Sengoku. Already using your fruit?” Rei said going back into a combat stance.

”HMPH!!!” Sengoku ignored the comment before bringing his palm towards Rei. Rei quickly dodged sideways as a dome of pressure landed where he had just stood.

”Hahaha dangerous.” Rei said before he flew towards Sengoku's head. Pumping magic into his legs, he also reinforced it with haki before kicking Sengoku.

*BANG!

A loud collision occurred as the kick only caused Sengoku to turn his head.

”Tsk!” Rei clicked his tongue seeing his kick deal minimum damage. Using his wings to fly backwards, Rei quickly dodged a strike from Sengoku's palm.

”Hmm no more playing around.” Rei said as he exerted force into his body.

”TRUE EIGHT INNER GATES: FOURTH GATE OPEN!!!” Rei said as a green aura exploded from his body.

”You're kidding....he was playing around with the admirals.” Some marines said seeing Rei release his pressure.

”Now then Sengoku. Let's go again.” Rei said as he retracted Taema and approached Sengoku ready for brute force combat.

Punching out with his fist, Rei collided with Sengoku's massive body causing the fist to sink in before Sengoku was knocked down.

”Oi Sengoku! Stand up.” Rei shouted as he runshed towards Sengoku. Bringing his heels up Rei kicked downwards which caused Sengoku to quickly dodge while retracting his budda form. The heel hit the ground causing large chunks Earth to break apart and shatter.

Taking this chance Sengoku turned around punching his fist towards Rei, who quickly twisted his body horizontally to avoid the hit. Using the momentum from the spin Rei launched a uppercut towards Sengoku. A trail of smoke could be seen shooting upwards as Sengoku was hit. Turning back into budda form mid air Sengoku pushed his palm downwards. Coating his arm in armament haki, Rei punched back in response. The vibrations rang out as they put a huge amount of stress in Rei's arm, the skin started to rip and blood flowed out.

”Holy shit this is an attack you shouldn't take head on...” Rei said through gritted teeth. Turning his body into mist Rei escaped from the impact area. Rematerialising, Rei quickly traced out his bow and Caladborg 2 covered with purple fire. He drew back the string before shooting it towards Sengoku.

*BOOOOM!!!!

Caladborg 2 hit Sengoku's torso as a huge explosion of was set off. The dust cleared showing Sengoku injured in his budda form. While the damage wasn't fatal it was enough to cause pain during a fight.

Suddenly, a pillar of fire erupted upwards causing everyone to turn head as Ace was freed from the sea stone shackles.

”Hahahaha Sengoku seems like our fight will end for now.” Rei said as he undid his Fourth Gate and untraced the bow.

”WAI-urg!” Sengoku tried to stop him but the injury on his body caused him to flinch for a second.

This second was all that Rei needed to fly towards Ace and Luffy.

”Yo!” Rei said landing next to them.

”Hahaha Rei!” Luffy said looking at Rei.

”Thank you for distracting Sengoku.” Ace said as he looked at Rei.

”Hahahahaha don't mind it but can you do me a favour and shoot some fire at me quickly?” Rei asked with a laugh.
