Identity Revealed

The trio sped towards the direction the gunshots originated whilst cloaking their presence. When they arrived they saw a fleet of marines with weapons in their hands looking towards a small group of 3 in front of them.

The marines consisted of 200 elite marines, 5 Commodores, 3 Rear admirals and a man wearing a white suit and half black half white mask holding a spiked club.

[That masked man should be from Cipher Pol and judging from his aura, he looks to be at the level of a weak vice-admiral. To think the world government sent out such a powerful fleet, looks like they really mean to capture the Samsara Fruit by any means necessary.]

The group of 3 opposite them consisted of a samurai lying on the floor barely conscious with a purple flame covering his wounds. The weird thing was that the flames weren't burning him, in fact they weren't damaging him at all, they seemed to be preventing the injuries from worsening.

Stood just in front of the samurai was the green haired youth who was stood behind a transparent barrier with his fingers crossed in front of him and the bare handed Tsunade was just in front of them, single handedly fighting against a giant man wearing a pair of black gauntlets.

The giant was dressed in a blue suit and a marine jacket hung on his shoulders with the rank of Commodore printed on the back.

Shaya and Roman were slightly surprised to see that Tsunade was able to get the winning side when their fists collided forcing her opponent back 5 steps, despite her opponent being a giant capable of using armament haki (on his black gauntlets) whose whole race is renowned for their physical strength.

Ori who from there earlier exchange had a fairly good grasp on Tsunade's current strength wasn't in the slightest bit surprised by her monstrous raw strength.

[From the looks of it, the samurai took the brunt of the gunfire we heard earlier, and that purple flame should be the effects of Tsunade's Samsara fruit.]

Just as Tsunade was about to finish her opponent she was caught off guard by a speedy surprise attack.

"Soru! Shigan!"

Another Commodore appeared behind her using the rod in his hand to execute the technique "shigan" to pierce his rod all the way through her shoulder.

Before he could escape though, he was hit square in the chest by Tsunade's fist which was covered by a dark purple flame sending him flying over 20 meters.

When he crashed into the ground everyone was scared by the effects of her punch. The commodore suddenly aged over 50 years making him look like a decrepit old man on his death bed.

Tsunade coughed a mouthful of blood as she knelt on the ground catching her breath while holding her shoulder.

"Soru!"

The giant from before suddenly appeared directly in front of her as he punched downwards aiming to crush her with the next attack.

Bang!

The giant created a 20 meter crater with his last attack. He stood up thinking he killed the target and looked back to the Cipher Pol operative and said.

"Mission completed."

As he said that he noticed that the CP operative and his fellow marines were all looking up in the air above him.

As he followed their line of sight he saw a young light-skinned man stood in the air with a sword strapped to his back and his hair and clothes swaying with the wind and in his arms was Tsunade who still had her eyes closed bracing for impact.

The young man didn't seem to pay any attention to anyone else around him as he looked down at the blonde in his arms. Seeing her with her eyes still closed he couldn't help but tease her.

"Ooh dear wife of mine, how long do you intend on closing your eyes?"

When she heard the sound of a familiar voice and the lack of pain she opened her eyes to see Ori's face right in front of her own as he looked down at her. Her face then turned bright red as she realised that she was being held in his arms whilst being stared at by over 200 people.

"Put me down you shameless bastard!"

Just as he was about to reply a cold voice cut him off.

"Kid who are you?! Do you know the punishment for interfering with the world governments operations!"

The one who spoke was the masked man from Cipher Pol!

Ori looked at the man indifferently as he replied.

"Oii old man has no one ever told you it's rude to interrupt someone else's conversation?!"

Hearing that, everyone present was shocked by the balls of this young man. The man from Cipher Pol had never been spoken down to in such a way, especially not by someone not even in their 20's.

"Kid I don't know who you think you are but allow me to punish you in the place of your parents for showing such disrespect to your elders."

The one speaking wasn't the masked man but the Giant Commodore. He jumped into the air punching towards Orion.

When he heard the giant bring up his parents Orion's eyes went cold as a terrifying Killing Intent surged forth.

Ori raised his foot and stamped down on the air beneath him creating a sudden violent wind that pushed the giant down to the ground forcing him on his knees and blowing most of the marines surrounding them off their feet.

He then took the sword from his back and holding Tsunade in one hand and his sword in the other he slashed his sword creating a giant blue sword wave that shot towards the giant on his knees cutting him in half and continuing on leaving a giant scar on the ground.

"Punish me in the place of my parents? You're not qualified!"

As he said that, everyone present was left in a state of shock by his show of strength. The masked man looked deeply at Orion.

[Light skinned male with the ability to generate wind holding a giant rectangular sword… The age is about right as well… After 9 years, he's finally resurfaced!]

"Orion! After 9 years you've finally decided to show your face again… The World Nobles have been crying out for your head for the past 9 years, they still haven't forgotten that you as a commoner took the head of one of their own!"

As he said that all the other marines present looked up at Orion in shock who was stood in the sky sword in hand like an angel of death.

"So that's Orion who was strong enough to kill a New World Commodore when he was 10?"

"They referred to him as "Orion the Demon child" because of his perverse strength!"

"After 9 years he's finally resurfaced and was able to kill a Commodore whose strength is above that of Vergo's as if he was killing a bug."

Tsunade who was still in the arms of Orion saw him in an all new light.

[He's the one who father called a genius seen once every thousand years. He was strong enough to kill a New World Commodore at the age of 10, it's been 9 years since then just how strong is he now?!]

Orion glanced towards the masked man lightly before looking down at Tsunade who was staring into his eyes with a cheeky grin.

"How about it, captivated by my elegant demeanour yet?!"

When she heard his words her face reddened as she glared at him.

"Who's captivated by you, you shameless bastard! And will you put me down already?!"

Ori smiled lightly as he took a gentle step towards Tsunade's crew. As he did almost everyone present lost track of him only able to see him again when he stopped behind the green haired youth's barrier.

To those who could barely keep track of his movements, they felt as if when he moved he had managed to fuse with the wind.

The Cipher Pol operative was frowning behind his mask when he saw Orion's speed.

[Quite quick!]

Ori then placed Tsunade down as he said.

"There you go wife, safe and sound. You take care of your crew mate and leave the marines to me!"

Tsunade snorted when she heard him call her his wife again but when she was reminded about the samurai she knew he was right, the sooner she treated him the better.

She looked at him and asked.

"Will you be alright by yourself?"

Orion grinned happily as he said.

"You almost sounded like a caring wife just now!"

When Tsunade heard his comment, she quickly spun away and walked towards the samurai with a gentle blush as she muttered.

"Bastard… Be careful!"
