The Phoenix's Mark and the Dragon God's Legacy

As the oppressive pressure of the Dragon God's soul continued try to crush his King's Haki, Raja felt his body and soul strained beyond their limits. The immense weight of the soul that threatened to overwhelm him was suddenly interrupted by a peculiar sensation. It was not a physical sensation, but one deep within his mind. A golden light flickered in the recesses of his consciousness, appearing as a symbol of warmth and power. Raja's thoughts, scattered and scattered in chaos by the overwhelming force of the Dragon God's soul, suddenly stilled, drawn to the flickering light.

The Primordial Azure Dragon, still observing the process from afar, froze for a moment. It had noticed something strange. On Raja's forehead, a golden flame mark appeared, blazing with intense golden fire. The mark pulsed with heat, burning brightly as if alive. The dragon's senses sharpened. This was not a normal phenomenon. This was not merely the result of the Dragon God's power. The mark belonged to the Phoenix's bloodline.

The Primordial Azure Dragon was stunned. . It had sensed the power of the Phoenix soul within Raja, but it had never anticipated this manifestation. As the flames danced upon Raja's forehead, the dragon realized that this golden mark was not merely a symbol—it might hold the key to Raja's ability to resist the overwhelming power of the Dragon God's soul.

Before the dragon could fully contemplate the implications of this discovery, a powerful surge of energy erupted within Raja's mind. The golden flames around the mark expanded, and the scene within Raja's consciousness shifted dramatically. The starry sky that had been present moments before vanished, replaced by a vast sea of golden flames. The sky was now alight with blazes, and above it all, a massive, regal Phoenix soared through the sky. Its wings were aflame, and its golden feathers seemed to burn with an intensity that illuminated the entire sea of flames below. The Phoenix was not small—it was as massive as the silhouette of the Azure Dragon that had dominated Raja's mind moments before.

The Phoenix's cry echoed through the golden sea, a sound that seemed to reverberate across the entire universe. The stars in the sky shattered with the force of its call, scattering into the void like falling embers. The once serene and quiet space was now filled with an intense battle—a battle between the Azure Dragon's might and the Phoenix's flames. The Phoenix raised its head high, its wings beating powerfully against the air, and it unleashed a torrent of flames that surged through the starry sky like a wave of destruction. The flames grew exponentially, expanding and morphing into massive solar prominences that tore apart the remnants of the stars in their path.

The battle was fierce, with both the Azure Dragon and Phoenix unleashing their most formidable powers. The Dragon's massive silhouette coiled in the sky, trying to withstand the Phoenix's flames, but the flames continued to intensify. The Phoenix's fire grew so intense that it began to form a small sun, a blazing sphere of light that hovered just above the battle. The heat from this sun began to consume the entire battlefield, threatening to engulf everything in its path.

In a matter of moments, the golden Phoenix's flames overwhelmed the Azure Dragon's silhouette. The flames roared and burned brighter, and the Dragon's resistance began to crumble. The Phoenix's fiery sun expanded, absorbing everything in its wake. Within thirty breaths, the Azure Dragon's silhouette was completely consumed by the Phoenix's flames. The mighty Dragon's form was incinerated, its power shattered. What was once a force to be reckoned with was now reduced to a scattering of blue stars, slowly fading away into the starry sky.

The golden flames surged and roared, turning the vast expanse into a sea of light. The Phoenix's flames, having devoured the Azure Dragon, intensified, their power and energy sending ripples through the cosmos. The battle was over, but its aftermath was far from calming. Raja, witnessing this intense clash within his mind, felt a surge of power unlike anything he had ever experienced before.

The battle between the two primordial forces and Raja's Haki left Raja's body trembling violently. His physical form, overwhelmed by the sheer mental and spiritual strain of the battle, began to falter. He felt the weight of his body as it succumbed to the toll of the experience. In an instant, He started to meditate and used his Extreme Adaptability and control to solve the Issue.

As Raja's Haki won, the golden flame mark on his forehead slowly began to fade, its intensity waning as the connection to the battle diminished. Raja lay still, his breathing shallow, his mind adrift in a realm of deep slumber.

After what seemed like an eternity of silence, the Primordial Azure Dragon, still lingering in the void of Raja's consciousness, began to reflect on what had just transpired. The dragon, having witnessed the entire phenomenon, realized the significance of the Phoenix's intervention. It had been an unexpected and unprecedented event. The Phoenix's soul, once dormant within Raja's body, had awakened and played a crucial role in Raja's success.

The dragon had sensed something divine within Raja ever since their first encounter, but the Phoenix's involvement added a new layer of complexity to the situation. The power of the Phoenix's soul had helped Raja to speed up the process of Refining the Dragon God's soul, allowing the integration process to occur much faster than anticipated. It was clear to the dragon now that the Phoenix's soul connection with Raja was not only real but vital to his success.

As Raja Meditate, the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice resonated softly within his mind. "You have awoken the Phoenix's soul, young one," the dragon mused. "Its power within you is immense, far greater than I had originally imagined."

When Raja opened his Eyes, the first thing he noticed was a profound sense of awe. He felt as if he had undergone a transformation—a change that went beyond the physical realm. His mind, once Strong Fortress, now felt even more clear and powerful. It was as though the very fabric of his soul had undergone a fundamental shift.

Raja immediately focused inward, examining his soul. What he saw left him in awe. His soul sea, once a vast ocean, had been transformed into an immense and boundless starry sky. There were no visible boundaries to his soul; it stretched infinitely in all directions. The power within this new soul realm felt overwhelming, as if Raja's soul had transcended its former limits. It was no longer a mere human soul—it was something far more powerful, far more impervious to harm.

The sensation of power was not limited to his soul alone. As Raja turned his attention inward, he realized that his body had undergone a similar transformation. Using his inner vision, he examined his skeleton, and what he saw shocked him to the core. His marrow had turned golden, glowing with a faint but undeniable light. His once fragile bones had been transformed into something far more formidable. They radiated with a strength and resilience that seemed impervious to the most powerful of attacks. Raja could feel the difference—he was no longer the same. Even the mightiest of strikes would not be able to break his bones now.

The Primordial Azure Dragon's voice echoed in Raja's mind once more. "You have awakened," the dragon said, its tone a mixture of awe and satisfaction. "The power you possess now is far beyond what you could have imagined."

Raja, still dazed by the changes within him, asked, "Did I succeed in merging with the Dragon God's Marrow and Soul?"

The dragon's response was immediate. "Yes, you have successfully integrated the Dragon God's Marrow and Soul. The process was swifter than I anticipated, and the Phoenix's soul and Haki power within you played a crucial role and your Adaptability."

Raja was smiled. The Phoenix's soul power? He had never imagined that such a thing help him, yet the golden flames had been a clear manifestation of it. He had received the Phoenix bloodline and the Divine Phoenix Pellet during his trial in the Phoenix's realm, and he knows about the soul of Phoenix.

The dragon's response was as cryptic as ever. "The Phoenix's soul power has always been within you, though it did not merge with your soul until now. It is a precious wisp of the Phoenix's soul, and its significance only became clear now. The soul power has been dormant within your soul sea, and only now has it awakened."

Raja's remembered the Spirit's words—how it had spoken of bestowing him with a special power, a power that would serve him in his extraordinary future. 

"The Phoenix Spirit spoke of giving me a power," Raja muttered. "Is this the Phoenix's soul power? Was it a gift, I thought my Kings Haki is Enough but it seems it helped in the Battle of Wills?"

The dragon's voice was heavy with knowledge. "Indeed. This wisp of the Phoenix's soul has been dormant, awaiting the right moment to awaken. It has granted you strength that goes beyond anything I could have anticipated."

Raja thought for a moment, his mind now clearer and more focused than ever before. He realized that the Phoenix's soul was not just a protection—it was a powerful force, far greater than any simple defense. It will help him in Dire situations he thought in his Mind

The dragon chuckled softly. "When the time comes for you to use the Phoenix's power, you will understand it fully. Until then, you must remain patient."

Raja nodded, knowing that the dragon's words. He had been granted great power, but the true nature of that power would reveal itself when the time was right.

For now, the Primordial Azure Dragon continued, "The integration of the Dragon God's Marrow and Soul has not given you immediate strength, but it has greatly enhanced your body and soul. You can now unleash the full potential of the Dragon God's bloodline within you. Your combat strength is now several times greater than it was before."

The dragon's voice grew more serious. "You have also unlocked the Dragon Soul Domain. With your current soul strength, you are now capable of activating this powerful mental domain. It is not an offensive or defensive ability, but rather a domain of overwhelming mental force. 

Raja took in the dragon's words, feeling a deep sense of responsibility settle over him. His journey was far from over, and the challenges ahead would be great. Yet, with the power of the Dragon God's bloodline and the Phoenix's soul, he felt more prepared than ever.

The dragon's voice softened, almost as if in a farewell. "You must now seek out the sword I mentioned. The one that is linked to my legacy, the one that will break the seal on my daughter. That is your next task."

Raja, his heart heavy with the weight of his mission, nodded silently. He had been given a purpose, and his journey was clear.

Raja Checked his Status and new Skill is added and Supreme King Haki is Upgraded.

New Skill is Raise from the Ashes - It provides one time resurrection. It was given by Phoenix Soul.

Supreme King Haki, Dragon Soul Domain combined and changed to Absolute Dragon Haki [Ex] - Even God's Have to Kneel in front of your will.

 Raja bids farewell to the Fading Primordial Azure Dragon's spirit and steps out of the cave, bracing himself for the dangerous journey that awaits him in the Wasteland of Death.
