An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Poseidon slowly rose from the seawater, his wound now fully healed.

A flicker of madness flashed in his eyes. The severe injury he just sustained not only failed to make him retreat but instead ignited an even stronger fighting spirit within him.

He sneered. “Logan, you’ve surprised me. But you’re still going to die today.”

Poseidon spun his trident wildly, and the already turbulent sea grew even more violent.

The waters swirled around him and formed a massive vortex. It expanded rapidly and soon reached nearly 1,000 feet wide. The surrounding waters were sucked in with terrifying force.

The suction was so powerful that even Warrick, Mulder, and the others, watching from a distance, had to brace themselves to avoid being pulled in.

“Hmm?”

Dustin frowned as he felt an overwhelming pressure closing in. The force of the swirling vortex before him was terrifying, as if it could swallow everything in its path.

But he didn’t flinch. In a flash, he launched forward like a streak of black lightning, charging toward Poseidon.

As he neared the edge of the vortex, he swung his Celestial Blade with deadly precision. A surge of black sword aura shot out and cut through the water, momentarily weakening the vortex’s suction.

Poseidon quickly thrust his trident forward with a powerful motion. A blue energy beam shot from the tip and headed straight for Dustin.

Dustin reacted quickly and dodged sideways. The beam narrowly missed him and carved a long trench into the sea behind him.
