Witnessing Blake's effortless destruction of the sacred beast with a single strike, the various faction leaders were left in awe, no longer harboring any doubts about him. As the saying goes, seeing is believing.
"Lily, is this the person you wish to follow...?"
Standing behind Paolo, Erica watched the spectacular scene with a stunned expression. Her delicate face showed a complex mix of emotions as her emerald eyes shifted toward Liliana, who was across from her, filled with admiration and reverence. She murmured softly to herself.
Over the past two weeks, Erica had observed Blake teaching Liliana swordsmanship multiple times, realizing that he wasn't just boasting. Diana's words about him became more credible. Additionally, her interactions with Liliana and Yuri solidified the stories about the events on the deserted island.
However, Erica still couldn't lower her pride to approach Blake for conversation. Instead, she silently watched from the sidelines.
"Look... something's happening in the Aegean Sea!"
While Erica was lost in thought, exclamations snapped her back to reality. She quickly turned her attention to the large screen, only to display an expression of utter shock.
On the screen, the Aegean Sea began twisting and churning uneasily after the sacred beast dolphin's death. The blood-stained sea surface erupted into chaotic currents, forming towering waves that reached hundreds of meters high, seemingly blotting out the sky and sun.
But that wasn't the most alarming part.
Even through the screen, the onlookers felt a bone-chilling sensation as a heavy pressure weighed down on their hearts.
"Finally, he's here. The Sea God—Poseidon!"
Only Doni remained unfazed, his face full of excitement as he muttered in anticipation.
As his muttering fell, the screen displayed a massive whirlpool with a diameter of several hundred meters forming at the center of the surging waves, as if seeking to engulf everything around it.
At the vortex's center, a figure radiating overwhelming majesty slowly emerged.

"Despicable human! You dare slaughter my sacred beast? Are you aware of your sin?"
Before Blake's eyes, a figure with a human upper body wielding a trident and a lower body resembling a fish with blue scales rose above the waves.
If the average person witnessed this, they would undoubtedly mistake him for a merman. However, this was no mere merman — this was Poseidon, the god of the seas who ruled over all aquatic domains.
The divine power and overwhelming presence emanating from him even caused Blake's expression to grow serious. This opponent might be the most formidable he had encountered thus far.
"I don't think I've done anything wrong. After all, that dolphin sank a human yacht. Besides, killing you will make me a Campione."
Blake's sapphire eyes flashed with intense battle intent, like an unsheathed sword. His aura instantly turned sharp and piercing, ripping through the clouds high above.
"Hahaha! Kill me to become a Campione? Boy, your arrogance knows no bounds! Even my nemeses wouldn't dare disrespect me like this!"
Poseidon burst into furious laughter. His immense divine power surged like a tangible force, piercing through the heavens and causing the sky, earth, and sea to tremble violently. Earthquakes erupted on distant lands, fierce winds tore through the skies, towering waves crashed onto the shores, and even undersea volcanoes began to erupt!
In an instant, Poseidon's mere presence plunged the region into chaos, sending wildlife fleeing in terror, only to be crushed by the ensuing disasters.
Even within the Bronze Black Cross headquarters, people turned pale, struggling to keep their footing as they felt slight tremors despite being far from the Aegean Sea.
They had underestimated the true might of Poseidon!
"This is quite terrifying. But true battles aren't decided with mere words."
Unfazed by Poseidon's overwhelming display of power, Blake calmly gripped his Excalibur. Suddenly, his energy surged forth, causing the space around him to tremble as he stood opposed to the sea god.
Had Cao Cao still been alive to witness this, he would have been shocked to realize that Blake's energy had advanced to an even higher stage — the peak of the Ultimate Class!
In the next moment, under the dumbfounded gaze of the onlookers, countless sword energies materialized in the air above Blake, numbering in the thousands!

Hiss—!
Even Paolo, who stood among the elite of humanity, couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. His scalp tingled, and his body instinctively froze.
It was no surprise. As one of the strongest individuals below the Campiones, Paolo had reached the pinnacle of human strength. However, even through the screen, facing Blake's sword energy, he felt overwhelmed.
Not to mention the sheer quantity — even a single one of those sword energies was enough to demand his full effort to defend against, with a high chance of sustaining serious injury.
Whoosh—Whoosh—Whoosh!
Whatever Paolo or the others were thinking, Blake paid no mind. Instead, his lips curved into a faint smile as he raised the Excalibur in his hand and suddenly swung it down toward Poseidon below.
In an instant, the myriad sword energies shot forth like arrows loosed from a bow, tearing through the air. The fierce currents they created distorted the atmosphere as they rained down upon Poseidon.
---
"Hmph! Humans! No wonder you dare to challenge my authority. It seems you have some skill. But do you think this level of power is enough to defeat me? Such naivety!"
Though even Poseidon was momentarily taken aback by the sight of the countless sword energies, his shock quickly turned to anger. With a furious shout, he unleashed his divine power.
The surrounding ocean waters surged violently, forming towering, spiraling waves hundreds of meters high. These waves converged into a massive water column several hundred meters in diameter, enveloping Poseidon's form as they rotated with terrifying force, meeting the descending sword energies head-on.
Crash—!
In that instant, the countless sword energies clashed against the enormous water column. The collision resounded across the sky, producing deafening booms. The resulting spray of water was so forceful that it rained down in torrents, each droplet carrying enough power to crush an ordinary person.
For this confrontation, Blake couldn't help but frown.
Wind is invisible, while water is tangible. This battle was different from the tornado clash with Voban. After the tornado broke through the outer wall, penetrating the eye of the storm could resolve it. However, Poseidon's seawater was endless, and it also had the massive force of high-speed rotation.
Even his sword energy only managed to penetrate halfway before being worn out!
On the other hand, the power of the sea, with its endless water source, was continuously rising!
Fighting in the sea was too disadvantageous for Blake!
